Chapter 972? Beauty Twilight (51)
On the thirteenth day of the first month of the first year of the holy calendar, the three-day period has arrived.
Most of the discerning people in the DPRK and China have been able to guess the result.
Yesterday night, someone tried to infiltrate the Tibetan mission and was caught.
He didn't have a secret letter on him, nor did he carry a token, and he didn't know anything about it, claiming that he was just going the wrong way.
If you can go to the wall if you take the wrong road, this person can be regarded as a talent.
Naturally, ghosts don't believe his nonsense.
Liu Youqiu seemed to have a treasure, and did not detain him into prison, but requisitioned an inn to detain him, inside and outside his henchmen, good words, good wine and meat, and there was not even an angular wooden weapon in the room, just to prevent him from committing suicide.
Even so, he was dead.
Died inexplicably, no scars, no poisoning, the body lay on the bed, the brocade quilt was properly covered and lifelike.
Such an aggressive and strange thing almost drove Liu Youqiu crazy.
The people who grabbed the Tibetan mission were tortured and tortured, and there was no interrogation, but they were only tortured for the sake of torture, purely to vent their anger.
As a result, this violent act of torture to death accidentally obtained a confession from Niya's personal maid, revealing the clues of Niya's mobilization of manpower from all walks of life.
Liu Youqiu pulled the flag with the wind, and quickly investigated the people who were related, including the Tubo people who settled in Chang'an, the Central Plains people who were hungry for profit, and the city fox and society rats in Chang'an City.
Liu Youqiu, Xue Chongyin, and Duan Chengshi all breathed a sigh of relief.
Although these criminal evidences cannot prove that Niya is the mastermind behind the bloody bloody Sanyang Marquis Mansion and the assassination of Zhao Xiang and Wang Zhiben, they will finally have an explanation, and the rest depends on the attitude of the Empress Wu.
For a long time after Zhengdan Chaohe, there were still a large number of vassal missions in the Lishan Post House that had not left, and most of the emirates of the Western Regions and the southwestern princely states were the lords.
They all border on Tibet, and the tide of Tibet rises and falls, which is related to their interests, so it is natural to stay more and watch the scenery.
In addition, the Turks in Beisai, Mosi, and Hamul and Tumidu with the surnames of Tiele did not leave.
Their extension is related to the Northern Army, Tuoba Siyu and Zhao Hehuan crisscross the Northern Desert, like a sharp knife stuck in their heart, and the army under their command, which has swelled from 30,000 to 80,000, has also absorbed their grassland tribes.
The only one who has nothing to do with it, but stays, is the queen of the Japanese kingdom, Zanra No.
Her Wa Kingdom has entrenched in the Fusang Governor's Mansion of the Celestial Empire, and the gold, silver and copper coins contributed to the Celestial Empire are like the sky, and their importance is extraordinary.
In addition, the Fuso Governor's Office was directly under the jurisdiction of the Andong Metropolitan Protectorate, and the Wakoku people were good at following the vines and handling complex interpersonal relationships, so they took this opportunity to establish a good relationship with the Andong Metropolitan Protector, which was equivalent to indirectly standing behind Quan Ce.
With these two points, Zanliang was full of confidence, and he was at ease in the post house, watching the drama of Silla and the drama of Tibet, feeling the majesty of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and having honor, as if he felt the pleasure of conquest.
In spite of the excitement, she personally went to the Tibetan mission.
There are almost people here who go to the empty building, and only the officials of the Great Zhou Honglu Temple are closely guarded.
Even the queen of the Wa Kingdom was not allowed to enter.
She stood outside, closed her eyes to the wind, and secretly refreshed for a long time before she walked away.
Unexpectedly, that night, someone sent a letter to her, and the letter was repeated over and over, saying that the lips were cold, the Celestial Empire bullied too much, and the great feudal clan should be responsible, and so on, encouraging Luye Zanliang to speak up for the sake of Tibet, and was willing to take over the marriage with the Japanese state.
Of course, not only these fictitious, but also the real things in the letter are also jaw-dropping, bluntly saying that the Japanese country has a degree of customs, and is willing to send 10,000 strong men to serve in the Japanese country, and another 30 beautiful men to serve in the queen's bedroom.
Cormorant Zanliang's cheeks flushed when she saw it, and she was annoyed and angry, she was already an old woman with a sixtieth birthday, and she was not as stationary as the emperor of the Celestial Empire, where could she still do the thing of bedding?
In a fit of anger, she couldn't hide her shame, and presented the letter to the Empress Wu as it was, claiming that Tubo was ugly and shameless, with ill intentions, and hoped that the Heavenly Dynasty would be responsible.
This letter of submission was like the last straw, overpowering the Tubo queen Niya, who gritted her teeth and refused to admit her guilt.
Some people climb the wall at night, and some people see the needles and submit books, where is this to rescue her, it is clear that they hate her for not dying.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, there are traitors in Tibet, there is a conspiracy in Tibet, and the concubines are willing to make meritorious contributions, divide Tibet, and help Your Majesty pacify the rebellion on the plateau"
Niya gritted her silver teeth, regardless of it, when the court was about to get up, she screamed bitterly, and the desire to survive made her give up all dignity and reserve, and lay on the ground on all fours, like a dog, crawling forward quickly.
When she was about to reach Danqi, the thousand cows in the temple set her up.
"Take it down, go down to the prison of the Provincial Punishment Division, take care of it, Hugh will hurt her life" Empress Wu waved the sleeves of her robe and casually sent it down.
"Zhuqing, after all, the Niya clan is the mother of a country, how should this matter be dealt with in the future?"
There was silence below.
"Your Majesty, in the opinion of the old minister, in the Tibetan mission, there are other traitors who are troubled, and it may not be" This is Prime Minister Doulu Qinwang.
"Your Majesty, the so-called punishment is not up to the doctor, the queen is guilty, or you can find another way to punish her, cut her hair and eyebrows, which are all feasible strategies, and you can also make a system to apply for Tubo, so that he can express his feelings and ask for guilt, Your Majesty is magnanimous and will be pardoned" This is the prime minister Zong Qinke.
……
Everyone talked about it, and Empress Wu was dizzy when she heard it, and her eyes swept over Ouyang Tong, Wei Juyuan, Ge Hui and other powerful henchmen, but they all watched coldly and didn't say a word.
Empress Wu frowned, and turned to look at Liu Youqiu and Xue Chongyin, with no reason in her heart.
Snorted, "This matter is postponed, let's wait and retreat."
The courtiers were discussing enthusiastically, and they stopped talking and withdrew from the hall.
"Wan'er, did Duan Chengshi tell you anything?" Empress Wu sat on the couch, did not move, and asked in a deep voice.
Shangguan Wan'er shook her head, "The three-day deadline is urgent, Duan Chengshi has been with Wei Guogong and Liu Youqiu, they have nothing unusual, and they have not been out of sight for too long."
"Hmm, you go" Empress Wu nodded, waving her hand to let Shangguan Wan'er retreat.
The sound of light footsteps sounded, bringing a fragrance, and the female officer wearing a lilac skirt floated in, with a petite body, a small cheek, and a beautiful facial features, a little cute and cute, it was the female officer Xu Hui who had recently entered the eyes of the martial arts.
"Your Majesty, the slave and maid's subordinates are following the traces, and the Tubo people who climb the wall should have been deliberately arranged, but the techniques are clever, and the Tubo people are unconsciously recruited, and they have always thought that they have recognized the wrong way, and what he confessed when he was tortured is the truth...... As for the queen of the Wa Kingdom, there is no clue for the time being......"
Xu Hui's voice was crisp, like a pearl falling on a jade plate.
"That's the case," Empress Wu sneered, "I just said, Liu Youqiu solves the case like this, and his luck is too strong."
"Your Majesty, beside Mrs. Zhao Xiang, someone has left Chang'an and gone in the direction of the divine capital, and he should have a mission, and he doesn't know where to go for the time being."
The smile on the back of Wu slowly put away, and his body was sometimes filled with fiery anger, and sometimes it was cold anger.
"Hehe, I'm not dead yet."
Don't blame Wu Sansi and Li Dan for teaming up to protect you, did they vote for another master?
Xu Hui asked cautiously, "Your Majesty, to track down the abnormalities over there in Tubo, the slave maid intends to ask the Queen of Tubo to play a play to expose Liu Youqiu's scam......"
"No need...... "She wants to investigate the truth of the serious case in Chang'an, just to find out who wants to assassinate Zhao Xiang, and everything next to her is the end, right now, Zhao Xiang himself is inappropriate, the truth, hehe, what's the use of finding out?
Empress Wu got up irritably, her feet were unsteady, and she swayed twice, only to feel a splitting headache.
"Spread the decree, let Quan Ce return to Lishan as soon as possible"
