Yuan Chun hurriedly waved his hand, "It has nothing to do with me, when I saw him, he was already a dead man, and I hadn't done anything." ”

Yingyi twisted her eyebrows and said nothing, the murderer must be between Xiaoshunzi and Yuan Chun, but ...... Which one exactly? What was the reason for Wang He's killing? One question after another came to mind, unanswerable.

After being silent for a long time, Gongliang Rongruo said to the two inner supervisors standing aside: "Go and search the residence of the two of them, and search carefully!" ”

Hearing this, Yuan Chun's expression was slightly certain, except for some tribute tea quietly hidden in his room, there was nothing else, and he should be returned to his innocence. Compared with the current crime of murder and planting, stealing tribute tea is nothing at all.

As for Xiao Shunzi, he was beaten to the point that he only had half a life left, and he didn't hear Gongliang Rongruo's words clearly in a daze.

Not long after, the two inner eunuchs walked in and bowed, "The two servants have carefully searched their residences on the orders of His Majesty, and there is nothing unusual in the house of the chief steward. However, in Yuan Chun's house, he found some private tribute tea and a waist card. With that, he handed over a black waist card.

Gongliang Rongruo took the waist card from the hand of the inner supervisor, and as soon as he saw the words on the waist card, he immediately changed color. The next moment, his eyes with a cold aura firmly captured Yuan Chun's face, "Are you from Wu Guo?" ”

Yuan Chun was stunned by his question, and it wasn't until Gongliang Rongruo slapped his palm on the long case that he came back to his senses, "The slave was born in the Song State and grew up in the Song Kingdom, how can he be from the Wu Kingdom?" ”

As soon as the words fell, Gongliang Rongruo had already slammed his forehead with his waist card, "Then how do you explain this thing?" ”

Yuan Chun didn't care about the red that flowed down his forehead, and hurriedly picked up the waist card, only to see a big "Wu" character engraved on it.

Yuan Chun was stunned for a while, he had never seen this waist card, how could it be...... Showing up in his room for no reason?

At this time, he finally understood the meaning of Gongliang Rongruo's words just now, and immediately shook his head desperately, and stammered: "Your Majesty...... Your Majesty, this waist card is not a minion's, it has nothing to do with the minions, and the minions are wronged. ”

"Unrelated?" Gongliang said with a pale face: "Since it is irrelevant, how can it be found in your room?" ”

"The minions don't know either." Yuan Chun seemed to think of something, and pointed at the two inner eunuchs and said hatefully: "It must be that they accepted the benefits of Xiaoshunzi and framed the slaves." Maybe this waist card was simply found from Xiao Shunzi. After saying that, he kowtowed vigorously and sobbed, "Your Majesty...... Your Majesty, the slave has been wronged, you must believe the slave! ”

"Wronged? You said before that the forbidden army wronged you, and now you say that they have wronged you, and after a while, shouldn't you say that I have wronged you too? ”

Yuan Chun didn't dare to answer, but kept kowtowing, saying over and over again. It's a pity that no one will believe him at all, just like Xiao Shunzi just now.

Gongliang Rongruo walked slowly in front of Yuan Chun, with a cold anger in his eyes, "I really can't imagine that I have been lurking by Wu Guo's spy for many years without knowing it!" Yuan Chun, you are really capable! ”

"It's not! Slaves are not spies, slaves are framed, Your Majesty, you believe in slaves! ”

Gongliang Rongruo kicked away Yuan Chun, who wanted to hug his leg, and said slowly: "You are very smart, if you are not too greedy this time and want to kill two birds with one stone, I am still in the dark by you!" ”

"It's not...... That's not the case, Your Majesty, you listen to what the slave said......" Yuan Chun still wanted to explain, but Gongliang Rongruo didn't want to listen anymore, and waved his hand: "Take it to torture, don't let him die before you pry your mouth open!" ”

"Don't! Your Majesty don't! Yuan Chun was so frightened that he struggled desperately, but his struggle was like a dragonfly shaking a pillar, and it was to no avail. After he was forcibly dragged down, the dying little Shunzi was also carried down. And the two forbidden soldiers, thinking that they woke up in time, opened the net and spared the death penalty. Thirty canes, removed from the forbidden army, and expelled from Zhaoming Palace.

The heavy rain did not stop until the evening, Yingyi pushed open the hidden door and entered the Xingde Palace, and said to Gongliang Rongruo, who was standing in front of the window with his hand: "Your Majesty, the slave maid has already flown the pigeon to pass the book, and the news will be able to come back at this time tomorrow." ”

"Hmm." Gongliangrong replied lightly, turned his back to her and said, "Yingyi, can you guess Wang He's intention?" ”

Yingyi pondered for a moment, and said uncertainly: "It should be that the northern side has been defeated and retreated one after another, and the war is tight, so I rushed to report to Your Majesty." ”

Gongliang Rongruo said slowly: "The war has its own military supervisors, and it has nothing to do with them, and it ...... The task you gave them was to spy on King Ning. ”

Yingyi's heart sank slightly, and she said softly: "Your Majesty is worried, King Ning is plotting chaos?" ”

"He has an army of nearly 200,000 troops, and once he turns around and counterattacks, Kaifeng will be in danger."

Yingyi hesitated: "Wu Guo is pressing forward step by step, Song Guo is in danger, and the slave maid feels ...... King Ning should not be plotting rebellion at this time. ”

Gongliang Rongruo turned around, looked at her and said, "What if he has reached some kind of agreement with Wu Guo?" ”

Yingyi was shocked in her heart, and blurted out: "Your Majesty is saying that King Ning colluded with foreign enemies to seize the throne?" ”

"Other than that, I can't think of a reason why Wang He came in such a hurry, and he even refused to use a flying pigeon to pass the book." His words silenced Yingyi.

When they were silent to each other, the long hall door was pushed open, and the Empress Dowager Wan took Ruoqiu's hand and walked slowly into the main hall.

Gongliang Rongruo hurriedly stepped forward to support him, "As soon as the heavy rain stopped, why did you come over?" ”

Empress Dowager Wan sat down in the throne, stroked her sideburns that had been messy all the way, and said lightly: "If such a big thing happens, how can the mourning family not come over." ”

Gongliangrong didn't want her to worry too much, so he pretended to be relaxed and said: "It's just a spy, and the son can deal with it." ”

"It's not him who worries the mourners." Empress Dowager Wan's eyes flickered, and landed on Yingyi, who was standing with her head down, "Wang He is your person, right?" ”

Yingyi said truthfully: "Back to the Queen Mother's words, exactly." ”

"What's going on over there with King Ning?"

Yingyi quietly looked at Gongliang Rongruo, bowed her head and said, "Yuan Chun refuses to confess, so it's not clear for the time being." However, the slave maid has already flown the pigeon and passed the book, and news will come tomorrow at the latest. ”

Empress Dowager Wan nodded slightly, and said solemnly: "King Ning now has nearly 200,000 troops in his hands, and the emperor must be strictly vigilant, and he must not be allowed to have a chance to cause trouble in the Song Kingdom." ”

"Erchen understands." After that, Gongliang Rongruo sighed, "Letting him lead the troops to the battle is the most wrong decision Erchen has made in more than 20 years." ”

"It's come to this, and it's useless to regret it." After a pause, she said slowly: "The seventh and the fifth have always been close, what has been the recent movement?" ”

"As before, contact the ministers of the DPRK and China everywhere, and want to force the ministers to increase their troops in the north."

Gongliang Rongruo's words made her smile coldly, "He is very angry, but it's a pity that he used it in the wrong place!" If Lao Wu decides to rebel, he will definitely send someone to contact him, so that he can have a meeting between the inside and the outside, so that people can watch carefully. In addition, according to the favor of the first emperor back then, the Dark Night Camp was most likely in his hands, and he was careless. ”
