readx;?“ Your Majesty, who will you send to arrest Wang Zhu? Colliers reminded in a whisper. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Li Longji glanced at Yang Guozhong, who was kneeling on the ground, and shook his head slightly. Just as he was hesitating, the small yellow door outside the hall sang loudly: "Longwu General Chen Xuanli and Imperial Doctor Wang Ji ask to see." ”
"Ears are long enough!" Li Longji snorted coldly, glanced at Gao Lishi, and then said in a deep voice: "Pass!" ”
When Gao Lishi went out from the back door of the main hall to summon the left and right prison guards to re-arm, Chen Xuanli and Wang Jie, who had their own thoughts, knelt in front of Li Longji together.
"It's really rare for the two Aiqing to come together, I don't know what's going on?" Li Longji asked nonchalantly.
Wang Jie, who was in an anxious mood, shouted first: "Your Majesty, yesterday Chang'an County arrested a scholar who bewitched the public, but unexpectedly, the thief actually had a comrade, and the night attack on the prison rescued the scholar. Weichen is derelict in his duties, and he is here to accept the guilt! ”
"Misceiving the crowd? What kind of gossip does he preach? Li Longji said in a sneering voice.
"Your Majesty, that Xiangshi ......" Wang Ji gritted his teeth and said helplessly: "That Xiangshi deliberately approached his brother and tricked him into doing rebellious things. ”
"Oh? What's the name of the Xiangshi? Li Longji saw that Wang Ji was still sincere, his face was pale, and he asked knowingly.
"Your Majesty, that thief's name is Ren Haichuan!" Wang fell to the ground and wept and said: "My brother is sparse by nature and likes to travel, but he doesn't know that people's hearts are vicious and he has been exploited by others. But in any case, Weichen is not strict in governing the family, and the crime is unforgivable, please punish His Majesty severely. ”
Seeing the bruises on Wang Jie's forehead on the soft carpet, Li Longji sighed lightly: "Wang Qing is flat." ”
Wang Ji heard that Li Longji's tone was loose, and he was slightly happy in his heart, and said gratefully: "Thank you, Your Majesty!" ”
"What is Chen Qing here for? Why did you come with Wang Qing? Wang Ji was thinking about how to expose Yang Guozhong's conspiracy, but Li Longji had already begun to ask Chen Xuanli.
Chen Xuanli glanced at Wang Xuanli and stopped talking.
"Chen Qing has something to say, why bother to spit it out." Li Longji looked displeased.
"Your Majesty, Weichen just met Dr. Wang Yushi in front of Danfeng Gate, and he didn't intend to go along. The reason for the visit was because he received a secret report from Xing Xuan, the commander of the Longwu Army, saying that Wang Weld of the Hubu Langzhong was secretly hoarding armaments, co-opting the generals of the Longwu Army, and gathering the Chang'an rangers, intending to collude inside and outside to attack the Daming Palace on a certain day, and plot to kill His Majesty and the important ministers of the court! ”
As soon as Chen Xuanli spoke, everyone in the hall had different expressions: Gao Lishi, who had just returned to the hall, had already expected it, and his face remained unchanged; Although Yang Guozhong was a little surprised, he was pleasantly surprised; Xian Yu thoughtfully, bowed his head and said nothing; Wang Jie's arms trembled, and his expression stiffened.
"Chen Qing, rebellion is a heinous crime, is there any basis for what you say?" Li Longji stared at Chen Xuanli with burning eyes.
"Your Majesty, Weichen also knows that the matter is big, and if he is not completely sure, he will never dare to report it to the imperial front." Chen Xuanli took out a stack of papers from his arms: "Your Majesty, this is Wang Langzhong's overall plan to rebel, as well as his record of setting up a banquet and shooting for the generals of the forbidden army, and attaching a list of the generals who were co-opted." ”
When Gao Lishi took the evidence from Chen Xuanli, he hesitated for a moment, stared into his eyes playfully, and wanted to speak; Chen Xuanli put on a frank posture, not caring about Gao Lishi's complicated eyes.
“…… Gao Yunzhou, the secretary of the Longwu Army, Xing Xuan, and Gao Yungui, the halberd, joined forces to get rid of Chen Xuanli, the general of the Longwu Army, before the court meeting, took away the fish talisman and token, and ordered the Longwu Army to ambush outside the Daming Palace and kill Zuo Xiang
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page) Chen Xilie and Yang Guozhong, the squire of the military department, took advantage of the chaos to force the palace and forced the faint monarch Zen throne Wang Yu Shi Dafu to ......" Li Longji read aloud the "strategy of rebellion" that did not make sense of literature and science, and sneered again and again.
The wrath of the Son of Heaven put everyone in the hall in danger, and Wang Jie, who had just stood up for a while, knelt on the ground again and shouted "wronged".
"Wang Qing, Brother Ling adheres to the way of filial piety, and he went to great lengths to let you ascend the throne."
The saint's sharp taunt smashed on Wang Jie's body, making him feel like he had been cut by a thousand knives.
"Your Majesty, Wechen has always been loyal and dedicated, and he will never dare to do such a rebellious thing. My brother ......"
Wang Fei wanted to defend Wang Weld, but was interrupted by Yang Guozhong coldly: "Wang Jie, do you still have to quibble until now?" There are all the human and physical evidence, and you still don't bow down and admit your guilt! The saint is forgiving, and if you have a small merit, I may be able to give you a whole corpse. ”
"Your Majesty, if Weichen is not mistaken, Gao Yunzhou is the son of Gao Xianzhi, the envoy of the four towns of Anxi, Gao Xiangui is Gao Xianzhi's brother, Wang Langzhong colluded with the border town generals, his ambition is not small, and his heart can be punished!" Keen Xian Yu Xiang tasted from the words of the saint where Chen Xuanli's sword was pointing.
"That's right!" Yang Guozhong suddenly realized: "Your Majesty, back then, Wei Jian colluded with Huangfu Weiming and Wang Zhonghei, and almost caused a catastrophe. Dr. Wang Yushi wants to follow in Wei Jian's footsteps? ”
Chen Xuanli saw that he was shrewd and Yang Guozhong was aggressive, so he no longer added oil and vinegar; Wang Ji was reprimanded one after another, and there was no other way but to kowtow and shout "wronged".
"General Chen, I don't know why Xing Wei betrayed Wang Langzhong?" When the situation in the Lin De Hall was one-sided, Gao Lishi suddenly asked.
"Your Majesty, I can't hide it, Xing Wei was specially arranged by Weichen." Chen Xuanli's tone was calm: "A few months ago, a certain person received a secret report that someone was trying to win over the generals of the Long Wu Army, so he summoned all the generals under his command to gather for drinks several times, and secretly found out that Wang Lang did it. In order to find out Wang Langzhong's intentions, a certain secret order Xing Sijie was mixed with him. Xing Sijie really fulfilled his mission and discovered a shocking conspiracy. ”
Li Longji turned his head to look at Colliers, and Chen Xuanli also looked up at his old friend who had known each other for decades.
"Your Majesty, as far as the old slave knows, General Chen has indeed summoned the generals to feast and drink, and there are Xing Wei who has been in contact with Wang Langzhong many times." Colliers pondered for a moment before whispering in the saint's ear. He knows very well that his words and deeds at this moment will affect the direction of the court, and it is related to the life and death of many people, so he must be cautious.
Li Longji stroked his beard and pondered for a while, and suddenly asked in a low voice: "I remember that Gao Xianzhi's eldest son served in Qianniuwei, when was he transferred to the Long Wu Army?" ”
Gao Lishi's heart sank, but he had to tell the truth: "Gao Yunzhou took the path of Li Xiang two years ago and was transferred to Longwujun, hoping to be able to serve with him. ”
"You think Gao Xianzhi ......" Li Longji's fingers tapped on the armrest of the imperial couch, and the dull percussion sound was intertwined with Wang Jie's mournful cry of grievances, which made people feel depressed.
"Your Majesty, the old slave doesn't dare to discuss the affairs of the court." Gao Lishi first left room for himself to take a step forward: "However, in the shallow view of the old slave, although Yang Shilang and General Chen are conclusive now, they need to bring Wang Jian to the front of the palace to confront each other in order to distinguish black and white." ”
"That's a serious word!" Li Longji nodded yes, and then asked Chen Xuanli: "Chen Qing, I don't know where Xing Sijie is at the moment?" So where is Wang Zhu? ”
"Your Majesty, Wang Langzhong gathered his henchmen to drink at Xing Sijie's house last night, and both of them should be in Jinchengfang at this moment."
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page) Chen Xuanli saw Li Longji calling Wang Weld's name, and his heart was even happier.
"Jinchengfang? Doesn't Fei Langjun also live? "The assassination of Wang Fei left a deep impression on Gao Lishi.
Wang Ji also noticed the subtle change in Li Longji's mentality, he recalled Li Linfu's advice, and immediately decided: "Your Majesty, the minister implores to lead the Jingzhao Mansion officials to arrest Wang Weld!" ”
"Wang Jie, you are a guilty body, do you have to take the opportunity to escape?" Yang Guozhong was "righteous and awe-inspiring" and stepped forward to reprimand angrily.
"Yang Qing must not speak falsely, Wang Qing has always been loyal and upright, and I know it in my heart." Li Longji waved his hand to stop Yang Guozhong: "However, I am afraid that Jingzhao Mansion alone will not be able to handle it, and Yang Qing can lead a hundred Jiannan Ya soldiers to accompany him to help." ”
"Whoa!" Yang Guozhong understood that Li Longji wanted to let himself spy on Wang Jie.
"Your Majesty, did you bring back Xing Sijie from the Dragon Martial Army together?" Wang Ji looked at Chen Xuanli and asked.
"That's nature." Li Longji pointed out meaningfully: "Wang Qing, Yang Qing, I want you to bring Wang Weld and Xing Sijie to the palace alive." ”
"Whoa!" The sorrowful Wang Ji and the smiling Yang Guozhong were ordered to leave the palace and summoned their respective men and horses to kill Jinchengfang together.
After Wang Ji and Yang Guozhong left, Li Longji sat on the royal couch gloomily and was silent. Gao Lishi quietly ordered Xiao Huangmen to take Xian Yuxiang and Ren Haichuan to the side hall to wait, and then guarded the door of the main hall with Chen Xuanli.
"General Chen, this situation is like His Majesty's decision to raise troops to kill Webster." Colliers whispered lowly.
"Yes!" Chen Xuanli unconsciously sighed with emotion: "More than 30 years have passed, and only you and I are the only ones who accompanied Your Majesty in the uprising. ”
"General Chen, as the only remaining former ministers of His Majesty's domain, we should work together and be honest."
"That's nature!" Chen Xuanli nodded again and again.
"Then dare to ask General Chen, did Gao Yunzhou and Gao Xiangui also arrange for you in advance?" Colliers whispered tentatively.
"Li Xiang's people, how dare they call." Chen Xuanli immediately shook his head and denied it.
"Then why don't you arrest them as soon as possible?" Gao Lishi's words turned, his eyes were like a sword, and he pierced Chen Xuanli's eyes.
"Two ants, they can't run, there is an arrangement for a certain period of time." Chen Xuanli had something to rely on, and his expression was indifferent.
Gao Lishi chewed on Chen Xuanli's various actions since he entered the palace, and doubts suddenly appeared in his chest. He thought that he was watching the six roads with his eyes and listening to all directions, and he had a full view of the wind and grass inside and outside the Daming Palace. But Chen Xuanli's intention to deliberately involve Gao Xianzhi in this case exceeded Gao Lishi's expectations, making him feel that the situation was sliding to the brink of getting out of control.
What made Gao Lishi even more uneasy was that Chen Xuanli seemed to be getting closer and closer to the East Palace. Three years ago, although there is no clear evidence, the prince is obviously the most suspicious. At that time, Gao Lishi was worried that Li Linfu would take the opportunity to make trouble and cover up the past for the East Palace. But before he made a move, Chen Xuanli was obviously secretly helping the East Palace. At that time, Gao Lishi only felt that Chen Xuanli was slightly the same as what he saw, and he did not want to shake the country's capital and cause a bloody case in the court.
But now Chen Xuanli is shirtless and charging forward in this case, trying to wipe out Wang Jie, Gao Xianzhi, Li Linfu and other enemies of the East Palace, so that Gao Lishi has to wonder whether Chen Xuanli has put the prince in front of His Majesty.
"Chen Xuanli, no matter how you choose, you will never let anyone hurt the safety of the saint!" Colliers stared at his old friend, who was familiar and strange, feeling lonely but more and more determined.
