Jiajing died, Lu Bing was really sad, although the two were monarchs and ministers, they were actually like brothers, and the relationship was not ordinarily good.

Although Lu Bing is not pampered and arrogant, Jiajing has always been quite tolerant of him since he became the emperor, no matter what he did wrong, Jiajing has never lost his temper with him, when the two are together, it is really like a family.

Now, Jiajing died inexplicably, how could he not be sad.

He was not only sad, but also quite self-blaming, if he didn't follow Yang Cong to investigate the widows, how could Jiajing be burned to death by this fire!

At this time, he didn't know who told him something, and he even became suspicious of Yang Cong.

Yang Cong dragged him to investigate the Japanese Kou's behavior is really a bit weird, and things are a bit too coincidental, as soon as he left, Jiajing died, is it true that Yang Cong is deliberately plotting to kill the emperor as Yan Song said?

He didn't ask Yang Cong in person, because he knew that Yang Cong was quite shrewd, if people didn't want to say it, even if he asked, it would be useless, he wanted Yang Cong to take the initiative to come to him to explain.

Unexpectedly, Yang Cong never explained to him, this guy seems to be really a bit of a thief.

It seems that there is an irreparable rift between the two uncles, and even, in the back, the two don't talk much even if they meet.

Yan Song saw them like this, not to mention how proud he was, the reason why Lu Bing suspected Yang Cong was naturally that he sent someone to provoke it, judging from Yang Cong's reaction, this kid was probably a little stunned.

It's good to be stunned, if you are confused, you won't think about mobilizing the elite of the border army, and you won't know how to die when the time comes.

In order to paralyze Yang Cong, he did not mention any more strange questions about Jiajing's death, since Yang Cong came back, he "single-mindedly" pounced on Jiajing's funeral, from Fuling to return to Beijing, to manipulating things in a big way, and then to being buried in Yongling, during this time, he didn't say anything, as if he forgot to "frame" Yang Cong.

After Jiajing's funeral was completed, the next step was to discuss the succession of the new emperor.

On this morning, in the intermediate hall, the important ministers of the court gathered, and the court discussion on the succession of the new emperor officially began.

Originally, this ceremonial official should have read Jiajing's edict, but unfortunately, Jiajing did not leave an edict, and even the prince did not designate it, so this ceremonial official only read some nonsense that missed the emperor and hoped that the new emperor would carry on the past and forge ahead into the future.

Immediately afterwards, it was the official court meeting, and Yan Song, as the first assistant of the cabinet, was naturally the first to speak.

He didn't come out of the ranks, he stood directly on the left, and said solemnly: "The first emperor died, the future is over, it stands to reason that today we should discuss the succession candidate, but, before that, the official still has to say that the first emperor died strangely, we need to take out this person who deliberately murdered the first emperor, punish it according to the law, and comfort the spirit of the former emperor in the sky, and then discuss the successor!" ”

This time, the important ministers of the court did not seem to be too surprised, because everyone knew that this Lord Shoufu would definitely not admit it, and people would definitely not watch King Yu succeed to the throne.

Everyone's eyes couldn't help but look at Yang Cong, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, Hui'an, because everyone also knew that this secretary of the Ministry of Rites was King Yu's teacher, and Lord Shoufu was the one who wanted to deal with him!

At this time, Yang Cong didn't hide it anymore, he held his head so high, looked at Yan Song lightly, and waited for this Shoufu Lord to make a move.

Sure enough, Yan Song immediately said without hesitation: "The emperor died, and there are many suspicions, for example, Yang Cong, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, took away Lu Bing, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and a group of Jinyi Guard masters in advance, so that no one went to save the emperor when the imperial tent caught fire." For another example, around the imperial tent, there are tens of thousands of forbidden troops, and the imperial tent is on fire, and no one rushes in to save the emperor, why? I think everyone knows that Xu Yande, the Duke of Dingguo, and Cui Yuan, the Marquis of Jingshan, are frequent visitors to the Yang Cong Mansion of the Ministry of Rites, and after the death of the first emperor, who will succeed to the throne according to the ancestral system, everyone must also be clear. Therefore, all the suspicions point to one person, Yang Cong, the official now suspects that you deliberately murdered the emperor, what else do you have to say? “

Oops, this is a tear in the face, right?

Tear your face, tear your face, who is afraid of whom!

Yang Cong smiled coldly, and then said solemnly: "This official also suspects that someone deliberately murdered the emperor!" ”

Yes!

As soon as he said this, Yan Song was taken aback, because no one thought that he would say this.

So, why did he say that?

He then stared at Yan Song coldly and said: "Why did this official leave the camp with Lu Bing, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and a group of Jinyi Wei masters, I believe everyone knows that it is because there are Japanese robbers making trouble in Yuyao, in order to prevent the Japanese from going straight to Jinling and disturbing the holy car, the official took someone to investigate, this point, the emperor was gracious, why would Lord Shoufu take it out to accuse the official?" Do you want to know? ”

Of course, everyone wants to know what this is saying.

Yan Song didn't say anything, just looked at him coldly, waiting for him to "quibble".

Yang Cong said with a serious face: "The reason is very simple, because the widows who made trouble in Yuyao were arranged by Lord Shoufu, and Lord Shoufu's purpose is to lure away this official and a group of masters of Jinyi Guard, so as to facilitate the attack on the first emperor!" ”

Yes!

This is happening too quickly, isn't it?

Could it be that Lord Shousuke is a thief shouting to catch a thief?

This is very possible, because Yan Song is such a person!

Many of the important officials of the imperial court present couldn't help but look at Yan Song with suspicion.

Seeing this, Yan Song couldn't help but be annoyed and said: "What do you mean I want to deal with the emperor, there is no evidence, you don't want to spew blood, do you think that you can get away with reversing black and white like this and telling right and wrong?" ”

When Yang Cong heard this, he couldn't help but sneer: "Lord Shoufu, you are called unfounded, reversing black and white, but the official has evidence." ”

After that, he directly took out a stack of confessions from his arms, and said with a little smugness: "Lord Shoufu, unfortunately, those Japanese robbers who made trouble in Yuyao have been arrested by this official. According to the confession of these would-be robbers, the reason why they were able to break through the layers of defense of the Daming Water Division and arrive at Yuyao was secretly arranged by Wang Confession, the deputy envoy of Zhejiang Maritime Patrol Road, and Wang Confession was promoted by Lord Shoufu the year before last! Also, according to the confession of these Japanese robbers, they were instructed by the Matsuura clan, the daimyo of the Hirado Domain of the former country of Hitoei, to ask for money from Lord Shousuke, because the property they looted in the southeast several times ago was handed over to Lord Shousuke, but Lord Shousuke never gave them money! This group of would-be robbers appeared so coincidentally, just in time for the emperor to go to Jinling to worship his ancestors, Lord Shoufu, how do you explain it? “

it!

There is such a thing!

Almost all the important ministers of the imperial court present looked at Yan Song on the left, waiting for this Shoufu Lord to explain.

Yan Song was shocked at this moment, he really didn't expect that those would-be would-be caught by Yang Cong, and he didn't expect that those would-be would-be wouldn't know everything, and they recruited everything.

It was indeed deliberately arranged by him that gang of would-be robbers, but he didn't want to murder Jiajing, he just wanted Jiajing to mistakenly think that Yang Cong was lying about the military situation.

Now, how does he explain it?

There's no way to explain this!
