Although Jinling, the gate of the Jin Palace, is not a prosperous area where people come and go, because Li Yiming, the only son of the current emperor, has come to live here again, so this place is still quite eye-catching. However, there is a precedent of Xiao Jingxian's bad behavior in Lishui Garden before, even if he has eyeliner, he definitely doesn't dare to get too close, for fear that he will also be caught.

Therefore, even if there was some movement at the gate of the Jin Wangfu last night, no one dared to touch it in the dead of night to see what was going on, and it was not until this morning that no one discovered the terrifying scene of the corpse exposed at the door, and then someone had the courage to go to see the notice in front of the Jin Wangfu.

At this moment, the news of the traitor in the Jin Palace's mansion immediately swept the whole city like a whirlwind. And in the process of spreading the news, through word of mouth, there were countless versions, and in the end, the Jin Wangfu had a traitor who dared to assassinate the prince, this version was the most widely circulated, and finally, even the emperor heard about it!

It's just that in the face of the angry Chen Zuo, who asked to take the British King Li Yiming back immediately, and at the same time put the Jin King Xiao Jingxian into the Dali Temple Shaoqing, the emperor seemed unhurried.

"Xue Qing doesn't need to be too anxious, first of all, on the notice in front of the Jin Palace, does it say that this person is assassinating the King of England? Didn't you? Since there is none, it means that the situation is not so serious. Perhaps, that person went for Xiao Jingxian himself. Perhaps, that person is going for Qianqiu. Perhaps, that person just had a personal vendetta with some other people in the Jin Palace, and he used poison in a moment of frustration. ”

Seeing that Shaoqing of Dali Temple was full of opposition, the emperor waved his hand and said: "In short, I don't plan to make a big fuss before Da Lang himself, or Xiao Jing reports the inside story to me first. Perhaps, Xiao Jingxian is just using this to deter some people with ill intentions? Overreaction is not Mingjun's doing. ”

Hearing the four words of suspicion, Pei Xu, the second prime minister who was waiting to be summoned outside the Vertical Arch Hall, suddenly turned slightly gloomy, his fist clenched and loosened, released and clenched again.

He knew very well what had happened yesterday, for when he came home last night, his second son ran over in high spirits, and mysteriously told him that Yue Qianqiu was going to die. Shocked and angry, he hurriedly interrogated the daring boy overnight, and the result made him gasp.

Because it was impossible to stop that incident, he could only wait for the result of the early morning with anxiety, and only hoped that Nie Erzhu, who was named Xiao Jingxian's henchman, could really hate Yue Qianqiu as he said, and then get rid of that nasty scourge. But the news he got early in the morning made his heart cold.

In the previous crisis, he temporarily postponed the crisis with the recommendation of Yu Jianzhong, but this time...... He can't blame everything on his son and then kill his relatives in righteousness, right? First a nephew, then a son, what does this make others think of him?

It's just that these Pei family children all feel that he has an enmity with the Yue family, and then talk to themselves about what is beneficial to him, what kind of fools have the Pei family raised!

"Yue Xiang thinks that in the matter of the Jin Palace, the person who was killed by Xiao Jingxian's cane, who did he want to assassinate before he fell so badly?"

This sudden sentence pulled Pei Xu back from his mania and anger. Seeing that it was Ye Guanghan who spoke, he thought that this guy had been arguing with the old lady Yue every day since he entered the political affairs hall, and his views on many political affairs were extremely different, and he couldn't see any tacit understanding, and the last time he went to the Yue Mansion seemed to be a whim, he couldn't help but feel a move in his heart.

Yu Jianzhong had to go the same way with him on the surface, but in private, he had already made it clear that he had cut it off, and now he must find a true ally! If Ye Guanghan really wasn't so harmonious with Old Lady Yue, then he could create an opportunity......

But hearing what Old Lady Yue said next, Pei Xu suddenly became nervous.

"Although I heard what Xue Shaoqing meant, it seemed that I was going to the King of England, but it wasn't me, an old man, who was thinking about it, and it was more likely that I was going to Qianqiu. You know, I have a little impression of that Nie Erzhu, although he is Xiao Jingxian's person, but he was once slapped by Xiao Jingxian for saying the wrong thing in front of Qianqiu, from this point of view, this guy has a little personal grudge with Qianqiu. ”

Speaking of this, the old lady Yue spread her hands again and said, "But who knows? Maybe this guy will lose his mind and go crazy and directly murder Xiao Jingxian? I waited for that kid from Qianqiu to report to me, but he hid in the Jin Wangfu and didn't come out! ”

Yu Jianzhong glanced at Pei Xu, who had a gloomy face, and suddenly interjected and asked: "Compared to the Jin Palace, I don't know who was in danger of being poisoned, but I want to know more, who was chased and killed by the Cheng family that the King of Jin and Yue Jiu Gongzi rescued together yesterday?" This kind of robbery and murder happened in Gyeonggi County, and the Cheng family's carriage and horses are still there, but all the entourage has no one alive or dead, no corpse, this kind of thing is simply incredible! ”

The new prime minister suddenly mentioned this matter, and looked at the old lady Yue again, Ye Guanghan and Pei Xu couldn't help but secretly wonder.

Yesterday, I was seen going to the Eldest Princess's Mansion, and there were a total of four parties. King Li Yiming is the prince, and if you want to ask, the emperor will ask, they can't go beyond the bounds, but the other three, Yue Qianqiu and Yue Ying are all from the Yue family, but one is hiding in the Jin Palace, and the other is a bad star rewarded by the emperor, and few people dare to go to the Yue Mansion to inquire.

And the last remaining Fuyunzi Du Bailou used to be worshiped by Yufu, and during Yu Jianzhong's tenure as the secretary of the Criminal Department, he served as the chief catcher in the Criminal Department, did Yu Jianzhong ask something from his mouth?

Ye Guanghan and Pei Xu were thinking so, but Old Lady Yue smiled and asked with his hands: "Yu Xiang, you ask so, did Du Bailou say something?" ”

Yu Jianzhong's face suddenly darkened: "Are you embarrassed to ask?" Du Bailou never came to see me at all! ”

"Huh?" This time, Old Lady Yue's eyes widened in surprise, and her eyebrows were raised, really like a frightened old farmer, "Won't it?" Could it be that with the superb skills of Fuyunzi Du Bailou, he would be killed and killed after witnessing such a strange incident? ”

Ahem –

This time, Ye Guanghan was successfully choked. If you want to talk nonsense, there must be a limit, and if there are grandchildren, there must be ancestors!

He coughed a few times before he said angrily: "Don't pretend anymore, no one will believe this when it comes out of your mouth." I'm also very curious, you know, that Miss Cheng always has at least one or twenty followers around her, and she was actually chased and killed until there was no one left, and then there were only footprints next to Xuanwu Ze, and there were no corpses and bloodstains, which was really too bizarre. ”

"I think there's something strange about that, too." Pei Xu immediately followed up, and his mood became even more irritable.

The Pei family has a great cause, although the ideal is that the British princess is from the Pei family, so the glory of the first family is worthy of the name, but Nanwu has almost no precedent for the daughter of the family in the palace over the years, such as the queen mother in the first place, but the means are powerful, and the background is not high, so he acquiesced to some people looking for a suitable princess outside.

After arranging a princess like a wooden man, it is logical to send Pei's inconspicuous but well-trained girl to the harem, Li Yiming is not a stable character, and his preference for beauty is certain, as long as the beauty is not too high-born, that kid will definitely not care, and it will not be easy to handle it in the future?

But now, that Pei family secretly sent people to Yangzhou to see it several times, and determined that every move was rigid and polite, and it was indeed the daughter of a gentle and frugal housewife, but she was hunted down and killed, and then sent to the mansion of the eldest princess of Dongyang, which is simply troublesome!

"Yes, yes, it's bizarre." Old lady Yue snorted, and then under the annoyed gaze of Ye Guanghan and Yu Jianzhong, he said with a smile, "I have a little friendship with the eldest princess because of Master Qianqiu's strict relationship, so I have asked more about the situation than you." Oops, who would have thought that those two guys who wanted to kill Miss Cheng were Honghu Shuanghu, who had been wanted by the Criminal Department for many years, and after the two of them were seriously injured by Xiaoying and Du Bailou, they could still escape? ”

As soon as these words came out, Yu Jianzhong gasped. However, before he could ask for an explanation, he only heard the sound of footsteps inside, and followed by Lord Xue, the young secretary of Dali Temple who was one step ahead of them and asked to see, had already come out with a pale face.

When he walked out of the main hall, he found that it was a political hall outside, and all the four prime ministers had arrived, and Xue Shaoqing's original stupidity suddenly turned into a cold sweat. The matter of his Chen performance does not seem to be important in the eyes of the emperor, but four prime ministers are waiting outside, will people give him small shoes to wear when he returns?

He looked at Ye Guanghan, who had barely a little friendship, for the first time, but was interrupted by Pei Xu before he could speak.

"Okay, it's rare that the emperor is finally free, go in quickly, otherwise I don't know how long I'll be waiting outside!"

Pei Xu, who was originally not good, was not interested in talking to Shaoqing of Dali Temple who was in the way, and after saying this, he was the first to enter regardless of it - if the prime minister was Zhao Qingya, he would naturally give in, but he was not interested in playing any respectful games with the old lady Yue.

And Yu Jianzhong, who is also a child of the family, said that he was better than Pei Xu, but Du Bailou, who couldn't be found by anyone, had just been waiting outside for so long, and he was also irritable, so he followed in, and also ignored the poor Xue Shaoqing.

Ye Guanghan's temper is more perverse than that of the former Prime Minister Zhao Qingya, but he is always more sensible than those two families from a poor family, and he said to Xue Shaoqing before entering: "These days, things inside and outside are endless, and Pei Xiang and Yu Xiang are also a little impatient because of this." There are many places in these cases that require Dali Temple's contribution, and you can bear more. ”

Although he didn't pat the other party's shoulder as the people in the market expressed their enthusiasm, Xue Shaoqing was naturally relieved to see Ye Guanghan's kind attitude, so it wasn't until a while after the newly promoted Sanxiang entered the main hall that he noticed that the situation was different.

Why is there still someone with a pestle there that hasn't moved...... Oh my God, it's the only prime minister in the dynasty!

"Xue Shaoqing." Seeing that the other party shivered at his smile, Old Lady Yue couldn't help but touch his face with some wondering, "What, can I be a fierce ghost, you are so afraid of me?" ”

"No, no, no, it's the lower officials who didn't expect the old man to be still there." Xue Shaoqing hurriedly smiled, but his heart had already reached his throat. Why the hell did this old fox stay? What private words did this say to him? But Dali Temple is only responsible for the review of all cases in the world, and does not have the privilege of arresting people everywhere like the Criminal Department......

Old lady Yue didn't seem to see Xue Shaoqing's trembling, and said with a sigh: "The Honghu Twin Monsters have been wanted by the Criminal Department for several years, but I didn't expect to dare to do such a big case." A few years ago, I wrote that the waiter of the Criminal Department can only serve one term, and he will be idle when his term expires, but now it seems that this is not good, and those waiters who can only eat a vegetarian meal are decorations. Now that Yu Xiang has been transferred to the Political Affairs Hall, I plan to recommend your immediate boss to the Criminal Department, and let him, a powerful person, recommend the squire himself. Do you have the confidence to act as the administrator of Dali Temple? ”

Xue Shaoqing had just been hung in the air by the two prime ministers with a bad temperament, coupled with the emperor's attitude, he always felt that he had lifted a stone and hit himself in the foot, and even Ye Guanghan's comfort could only ease his mood a little. At this time, Mrs. Yue suddenly threw such a big good errand, and he only felt that the whole person was confused.

"Think about it, and if you want to do it, go to your boss and walk around more. Don't think that the people on the cliff shore must be difficult to deal with, he has been a Dali temple for so many years, and he has leaked a little experience, which is enough for you to use for a long time. For example, did you see him come to the emperor at this time and impassionedly say that he would investigate the two cases of yesterday and night? ”

It wasn't until Old Lady Yue entered the hall unhurriedly that Xue Shaoqing let out a long breath and slapped his face vigorously. He is forty-eight years old, not young, but standing in front of these prime ministers is always a little lacking in confidence.

Especially the old lady Yue, who is obviously from the lowest background and disdainful when many officials outside talk about it, even if he talks to himself with a smile every time, he only feels a lot of pressure. And this time, the people clearly said the intention of promotion, but they didn't let him cling, but gave advice, and suggested that he learn from the boss Dali Siqing who has always been in awe.

Compared to the other three, this is the real elder demeanor!

The old lady Yue, who was secretly identified as an elder, immediately lifted the posture of the vertical arch after entering the vertical arch hall, bent her waist slightly, and put her hands on it again. Chen Wuliang, who was accustomed to his virtue, knew that the prime minister was not to show respect to the Son of Heaven, but more purely because he felt that it was more comfortable, so he smiled as always and stepped forward.

"Yue Xiangye, I'm waiting for you."

Old lady Yue didn't take Chen Wuliang's words as a reminder at all, and asked bluntly: "Is that woman here?" ”

In a place like the Vertical Arch Palace, using the word "woman" to refer to the eldest princess of Dongyang, Chen Wuliang has and only seen such a bold old lady as Yue. He smiled bitterly, but in the end he didn't dare to answer, just shook his head.

At this moment, the old lady Yue suddenly laughed, and her face was full of lightheartedness. But then, as soon as Chen Wu said something twice, he couldn't be happy.

"Before Xue Shaoqing came here, Shen Zheng came to report that the ninth prince left the Jin Palace, and went to ...... one after another" Chen Wuliang paused, and his voice became softer, "I went to a few shops that Wu Desi suspected of colluding with Beiyan earlier." ”

Old lady Yue suddenly became puzzled. I'm settling in here and there, and that stinky boy is still there to make trouble for me? It's impossible, although Yue Qianqiu seems to be stirring things around, he has been very aware of proportions since he was a child, and if he doesn't stay well at this time, he definitely has to move!
