Chapter 55: Xuanda came to the audience

"Okay, tease you, I know you're not going, let's go, let's go out together." Mo Yanyu pulled the ink dye and walked outside.

"Since this matter is related to Bai Wei, I will investigate and avoid Tingye and Bai Wei from meeting each other, so it won't be embarrassing." Mo Ran looked up at Mo Yanyu.

Mo Yanyu thought for a while and nodded: "Well, too, you be careful, I don't know what the purpose of the gang of people who took away the children is." ”

Mo Ran hugged Mo Yanyu's arm and said, "I, you don't know yet, the ability to escape is better than anyone else." ”

Mo Yanyu scratched the bridge of his ink-stained nose and smiled, "You are the best, the smartest, let's go." ”

Mo Ran suddenly thought of the four officials a few days ago and turned around and asked, "Those four officials?"

Mo Yanyu took a few steps forward and nodded, "I know your worries, I have some eyebrows about this matter, I hope it is not what I think."

Mo Dye nodded, then stretched out his hands and said with a smile: "Then I'm not worried, and what, hug, I want to hug."

Saying that, he hugged Mo Yanyu, and Mo Yanyu also hugged Mo Dye back, and the two of them had happy smiles on their faces.

Qi Mansion was busy in the morning, and the subordinates were moving rice, Qi Xiao opened his eyes and saw the curtains sit up and look out the window.

"Ah, why do such beautiful people like me? It's all time, it's time to get up, Qiyue. Qi Xiao touched Qiyue's forehead and said.

Qi Xiao panicked for a moment when he saw the beauties around him, and thought that he was a little embarrassed last night, so he sat on the edge of the bed with his face open and put on his shoes and said, "You can rest today, I'll go by myself, I've been really busy lately, and I haven't seen each other." ”

"You still want her to accompany you in the soup kitchen?" Qiyue sat up and hugged Qi Xiao from behind.

"No, I just sigh that we haven't given porridge together for the twentieth day, and you have been with me for the past twenty days." Qi Xiao turned around and hugged Qiyue as well.

"Okay, this princess will stay with you, you will definitely be lonely by yourself." Qi Yue lifted the quilt and was about to get out of bed, Qi Xiao immediately turned around, Qi Yue laughed and said, "I didn't see everything last night, what's there to be shy about?" ”

Qi Xiao thought about it, and knocked his head in annoyance and said, "You all lured it, what is it if this is passed out, and we will get married in a few days." ”

Qiyue walked to Qi Xiao's side, poked his head out and looked at Qi Xiao and said, "Is this still the Qi Xiao who visited the Qinglou before?" ”

"Then I didn't take off other people's clothes, okay, okay, if you go, hurry up." Qi Xiao said and ran out.

"Hee-hee, that's cute." Qiyue said as she quickly put on her clothes and began to wash.

Qi Xiao ran to the courtyard and told his subordinates to hurry up and eat.

"Brother Huang, why did the queen mother die?" When the emperor saw Mo Yanyu, he went up and hugged him, and the regent and the prime minister stood next to him.

The prime minister's face was full of tears, and he must have cried just now.

"Back to the emperor, the Queen Mother died of poisoning." Mo Yanyu let go of the emperor and motioned to the emperor to pay attention to his manners.

"Is it your poison, King Yi, you have always been displeasing to our Qi family." Prime Minister Qi pointed to Mo Yanyu and began to speak.

"Prime Minister, you don't have to worry, is it that the Dali Temple I killed will give me justice, and you don't need to testify against me here." Mo Yanyu took a few steps forward, and the emperor returned to the dragon chair.

"Then King Yi, what kind of poison must have been found out?" The Lord Regent asked.

Mo Yanyu nodded.

"What poison?" The emperor asked eagerly.

"I haven't seen this kind of poison, and I haven't seen it in this king, but I said that there is a poison called Qiongchuan in the poison ingredients, and we don't have a growth environment in Yunqin Kingdom, and now it's all that I have found out, I went back and checked the books, and there is no growth environment for this poison in Dongyue Kingdom." Mo Yanyu recalled what Mo Dye said.

"Isn't that it?" The Lord Regent was surprised.

"That's right, now there is only Nanzhu Kingdom left, and I said the same thing." Mo Yanyu replied.

"Maybe it's your King Yi who colluded with the people of Nanzhu Kingdom, so how can we know?" Prime Minister Qi stood up again at this time and pointed at Mo Yanyu.

This time, the emperor spoke, and said impatiently: "Prime Minister, I know that you have lost your beloved daughter and are in a bad mood, but don't say anything rebellious, I see that you are not in good spirits recently, so let's go back and rest early, Xiao Dezi, send the prime minister out of the palace." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty. Prime Minister please. Xiao Dezi opened the door of the imperial study and waited for Prime Minister Qi, the prime minister flicked his sleeves and looked at Mo Yanyu and walked away, and said before leaving: "I hope the emperor can make decisions for the queen mother." ”

"Brother Huang, have you been to the scene, but you can't do anything?" The emperor stood up and frowned.

Mo Yanyu shook his head and said: "Don't hide it from the emperor, since the queen mother lived in the Huguo Temple, I sent Ting Ye to pass, and every three days Thunder Night reported back, last night happened to be the day when Ting Ye returned to the palace to report, so I don't know what happened, but it is certain that the people in the temple, because Ting Ye said that there have been no newcomers in the temple during this time, but there are many monks in the temple, and it is not easy to check." ”

"It seems that the person has calculated the time and has already observed the law of the thunderous night, so he chose last night, which also shows that the people in the temple have a better chance." The regent stepped forward and analyzed.

After hearing this, the emperor also nodded: "Father-in-law Sun, I decree that the Huguo Temple will be closed from now on until the murderer of the Queen Mother is found." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Grandpa Sun got the holy decree and left the palace immediately.

"What's suspicious?" The emperor asked.

"Yes, the monk who came to the house to report was killed, five miles south of the city, when the monk said that he forgot to buy what the host ordered and turned back, I didn't wait for him, I went directly to the temple, this is also just back to the house Thunder Night to report, Thunder Night said that when he arrived, the monk was buried half of the people and left, otherwise it would not be found." Mo Yanyu said that he was helpless.

"Why don't you have a clue about everything during this time? It feels like someone has always been targeting our Yun Qin Kingdom. The emperor looked at the two people in front of him very helplessly.

"Your Majesty, there is another thing that the ministers have not reported, that is, children are frequently lost in and out of the capital." The regent bowed.

"Why are all these things crammed together?" The emperor sat on the chair and felt hopeless.

"I wanted to find out some clues about this matter before I reported it, it has been almost a month since I lost children in the capital, and according to what I found, hundreds of children have been lost, including beggars in the city, who are about 7 to 12 years old." Mo Yanyu said and handed the stack of notes in his sleeve to the emperor: "This is the reply I sent someone to investigate during this time." ”

"What, hundreds? Why didn't I know about this? The emperor read a few notes, slapped the table, and stood up.

"It seems that there are people in the court who don't want the emperor to know, how did the regent know?" Mo Yanyu looked at Yun Yitian.

"I only found out that a few women were invited into the house by my wife at the gate of my house the afternoon before yesterday." The regent reciprocated truthfully.

"It seems that the Lord Regent is very ill-informed, right? As far as the king knows, half a month ago, there were women who went to the yamen to report the case, and the yamen refused, saying that they couldn't watch their children, and eight days ago, there were also women at the door of the prime minister who didn't know what to say and were kicked out, and six days ago it was at the gate of the Qin Mansion, and the emperor still didn't understand? Mo Yanyu said that he was full of righteous indignation and was particularly angry.

The regent looked at the emperor and whispered, "King Yi, don't be angry, the matter will be resolved eventually."

Mo Yanyu looked at the information in the emperor's hand and said: "You look at which family the people who died before, these people are indifferent by nature, which has caused some people to be dissatisfied, yesterday someone came to the door of my house, I have promised them to find the child, but I don't guarantee that they are still alive, because I also have difficulties in investigating." Of course, Mo Yanyu knew that no one came to look for him yesterday, but in order to set off what the regent said, it was not bad to add himself.

"This, why did the imperial court raise these people? The people don't lend a helping hand when they are in trouble, and the prime minister is really not as strong as his son. After the emperor finished speaking, the shadow guard appeared in the imperial study, kneeling on one knee and waiting for the question.

The emperor asked, "Dark, is there a discrepancy between what King Yi said and what you know?"

Mo Yanyu turned to look at the dark when he heard this, and of course the dark understood the meaning and arched his hand: "Back to the emperor, what we know here is similar to that of King Yi."

The emperor's hands began to tremble when he heard this, and he shouted: "Come and announce the decree immediately, Chen Jizhou and the master of the Yamen in the capital, Qin He, the head of the household, and the prime minister Qi Rong are indifferent in the face of the people's requests, do not help, let the people's wives be scattered, and now the loss of children is up to 100 people, from now on, the prefect of the yamen and the master will be demoted to the common people, and the head of the household department Qin He will be demoted to the right servant of the household department, Du Bingzhong has been diligent and thrifty for many years, and he has been serious in his work and has been promoted to the head of the household department from now on, and the prime minister will not be demoted to the official rank, but from now on he will not need to participate in politics and not go to the court, Those who are not called are not allowed to leave the house. After speaking, the emperor motioned to Xiao Dezi, who had just returned, to announce the decree.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Xiao Dezi received the holy decree and ran out quickly.

The regent suddenly thought of what happened a few days ago, and immediately gave up his hand: "Back to the emperor, Chen Jizhou doesn't need to announce the decree, he has been killed a few days ago, and I am investigating this matter."

After hearing this, the emperor's eyes widened, and he kept getting angry, and after a while, he asked: "Why don't I know about this matter, what do I raise every day?"

Mo Yanyu was puzzled when he heard this: "Your Majesty, don't you know that Chen Jizhou is dead?" Then you don't know that the other three officials were killed, right? ”

Before the emperor could finish speaking, he almost turned his back on his anger: "Brother Huang, who else?"

Mo Yanyu said and took out another newspaper from his sleeve and put it on the emperor's table, and the emperor picked it up and looked at it and breathed a sigh of relief: "These three are irrelevant, it's not a big deal, I just need to find someone to replace me."

When the regent heard this, he shook his head and immediately arched his hand and said, "Your Majesty, it is important to find someone to take office now, but it is also important to appease the family of the deceased."

After hearing this, the emperor nodded and said, "Then you propose it to the regent in the morning tomorrow, and I will announce the decree when the time comes."

When Mo Yanyu heard this, he thought that this matter was solved like this? That's not good, take a step back and say: "Your Majesty, you should talk to Da Sikong, it is said that he was also assassinated, but it was not successful."

The emperor was even more shocked when he heard this, and asked, "What the hell is going on?" I feel that there have been so many murders and unsolved cases in the past year, which has a great impact on the image of our dynasty, and also has an impact on the physical and mental health of the people. ”

After hearing this, the regent also nodded and said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that it is because all the forces know that you have just taken power, so you will make such a move, since Da Sikong was assassinated but did not succeed, the emperor can invite Da Sikong to enter the palace to reminisce about the past."

After hearing this, Mo Yanyu nodded and said, "Yes, Your Majesty, Da Sikong must have his intentions for keeping this matter secret."

The emperor felt that what the two said was very reasonable, and called: "Who else is outside?"

A little eunuch knelt on one knee at the door of the room and said, "Back to the emperor, slave Xiaolianzi."

The emperor immediately said: "Spread the word of mouth, Xuanda Sikong came to meet him."
