Daming Palace, Qianyuan Palace. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Li Longji sat on the dragon chair with a gloomy face, and a group of courtiers stood tremblingly on top of the court, and no one dared to speak.
The ministers, who had already fallen asleep, were suddenly notified and immediately got up from the warm bed, and did not know what had happened until they came to the palace.
The thief who tried to rebel was finally caught, and now he was rescued by the traitor, and the emperor was furious, and they naturally wanted to sleep.
"Rubbish! It's all a bunch of rubbish! Can you let the traitor rob the thief right under his nose? What do I want you for?! ”
Li Longji looked at the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty and scolded sharply.
"Your Majesty, this handover of the thief leader is an extremely confidential matter, if someone hadn't sent a message to the traitor, the rebel thief would never know the time and route of the forbidden army's action!" Yang Guozhong is colorful.
When Cui Jian heard this, he immediately walked out of the court and said, "Lord Yang, what do you mean by this, do you mean that Li Canghai secretly told the news to the traitor?" ”
Yang Guozhong said calmly: "Lord Cui, isn't it obvious that the matter is not obvious?" Lord Chen escaped death, how could what he said be false? ”
"Lord Chen was seriously injured and was unconscious when he fled back, how could he believe what he said?" Cui Jian frowned.
"Master Cui, I understand very well how you want to exonerate Li Canghai, after all, no one wants to believe that such an upright and selfless person would collude with a traitor behind his back, he really knows people and knows his face!" After Yang Guozhong finished speaking, he sighed very regretfully.
"Lord Yang! Li Canghai has made so many contributions to the Tang Jiangshan Society, are these fake? I can't figure it out, why does Lord Yang always target Lord Li? Speaking of this, Cui Jian paused, stroked his beard, and said meaningfully: "Could it be that Lord Yang is worried that he will find out if there is anything unseemly?" ”
Yang Guozhong's face suddenly became gloomy.
"Master Cui, what do you mean by this?" Yang Guozhong glared at Cui Lian angrily and shouted.
"The meaning of my words, Lord Yang must know it, so why do you knowingly ask?" Cui Jian snorted.
"You're ......!"
"Enough! Shut up! Li Longji suddenly roared, picked up the tea cup on the dragon case and fell to the ground.
There was a crisp cracking sound, as if the Nine Heavens Thunder Shock sounded in the ears of the ministers, and everyone knelt down one after another.
"Your Majesty is angry, and the ministers are guilty!" The ministers knelt on the ground, kneeling on the ground and trembling.
"Guilty, guilty! Every time you encounter something, you have been guilty and guilty, and my ears are calloused, but when have you proposed a solution to the problem? Li Longji was furious, scolded a few words, and suddenly coughed violently.
Seeing this, Gao Lishi hurriedly walked over, patted Li Longji on the back, and said anxiously: "Your Majesty, pay attention to the dragon body!" ”
"The ministers are guilty, please take care of the dragon body Your Majesty!" The ministers shouted.
Gao Lishi also hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, since this matter is related to Li Canghai, I am afraid that it can only be solved from Li Canghai, Lord Song has already gone to summon Li Canghai to come, presumably it will come soon, Your Majesty will extinguish the anger of the thunder, and after asking Li Canghai, I will find a way to solve this matter." ”
Colliers has followed Li Longji for decades, and Li Longji relies on him very much, and only his words can make Li Longji listen.
"Since Aiqing said so, then I will wait for a while." Li Longji said angrily.
Seeing this, Gao Lishi hurriedly ordered people to serve ginseng soup, and the ministers knelt on the ground and no one dared to move, and the entire court was filled with an unusually dignified and murderous atmosphere.
About half an hour later, a summoning chamberlain hurriedly came to the outside of the court hall and said loudly: "Your Majesty, Li Canghai, Song Kun, and Gao Luochuan, now waiting outside the palace for Your Majesty to summon you!" ”
"Let them in!" Li Longji shouted.
After a while, Li Canghai and the others walked into the main hall.
"Your Majesty!" Several people knelt on the ground and saluted.
"Get up and talk!" Li Longji waved his sleeves angrily, glared at Li Canghai and said, "Li Canghai, you explain to me, why was the thief head rescued?" ”
Li Canghai frowned slightly, and saluted: "Your Majesty, the minister has just received the news, and before he has time to investigate, he has received His Majesty's will. However, according to what the minister saw, the traitor must have made extremely detailed arrangements. They raided the guards with lightning and escaped as soon as they rescued the thief. However, the escort of repeat offenders by the Praetorian Guards is a confidential matter. It is impossible for the traitor to know the escort route and time, and someone must have sent a message to the traitor. ”
After Li Longji heard this, he stared at him and said: "What you said is not much different from Yang Aiqing, in this case, who will you talk about the person who fornicates with the thief?" ”
Li Canghai looked at Yang Guozhong in surprise, and said in a deep voice: "Back to Your Majesty, this matter has not been investigated clearly, so I dare not say anything." ”
"Don't dare to speak up?" Li Longji snorted and said coldly: "Do you dare not speak falsely, or do you intend to deceive?" ”
Only then did Li Canghai hear the murderous intent hidden in Li Longji's words, he looked at Li Yu slightly sideways, and found that Li Yu was constantly giving him a look.
Li Canghai could see that it clearly meant that he should be more careful.
It has only been an hour since he received that the forbidden army was ambushed, and Li Canghai only knew that only one officer of the military department had survived in the entire team, and he did not know whether he had said anything, so he felt a little strange about Li Longji's questioning.
"Your Majesty, forgive the ministers for being stupid and don't understand the meaning of Your Majesty's words." Li Canghai bowed his head and said.
"Don't understand? Okay, I'll let you die a little more clearly! Come on, take Chen Ang to the palace! Li Longji said angrily.
A moment later, two guards walked in with the wounded Chen Ang on their backs.
Chen Ang's back was dripping with blood, as if he had suffered a serious knife wound, and his face was as pale as snow, which looked like it should have been caused by excessive blood loss.
"Minister...... See Your Majesty. Chen Ang knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Li Longji.
"Chen Ang, tell me what happened to you again!" Li Longji shouted in a deep voice.
Chen Ang looked at Li Canghai beside him, and after a little hesitation, he said tremblingly: "At three o'clock, the minister took the janissaries to the Eastern Expeditionary Barracks to hand over the thief leader, and at one o'clock, the minister returned to Chang'an with the team. Due to the heinous crime of the thief, in order to prevent the thief from coming to the rescue, the ministers had planned the walking route and departure time in advance, and it was not inappropriate to move forward according to the plan. Until, when they came to the Drunken Butterfly Forest, the rebels who had been ambushed in the forest suddenly attacked the killer, and the guards were caught off guard. During the war, the minister once heard the traitors talking, saying that it was thanks to the ...... Li Canghai told them the escort route and time, otherwise they would never have rescued the thief so easily. (To be continued.) )
