How could those young people who were qualified to go to Taixue for further study and who could come to such a place to eat and drink every day be mediocre? It is very likely that they came from official families and had connections in the court, so it is not surprising that they could hear such news.

Wu Bencao put down his chopsticks and said unexpectedly: "The king of England has been arrested, and the situation is more serious than expected......

King Li Xian is the eldest son of the first emperor and the empress Wu Zhaoyi, according to the patriarchal etiquette system, he is the first heir to the throne, and his status in the royal family is extremely noble. And now, he represents the face of the Li family, and he can't move easily.

The detention of ordinary people still requires evidence, and the hasty detention of the British king without ascertaining the cause of the case is illegal and unreasonable. What's more, there is also a king who committed suicide in fear of sin, and took the initiative to cover for him, he should have been safe and sound.

But what happened has happened, which can only show that the empress's anger is beyond the judgment of Li Qianqiu and others, and she doesn't even wait for the results of the review, and directly blames the king.

Lao Bai eavesdropped on it and said: "The Son of Heaven is angry, and the consequences are unimaginable, and now it seems that the old man still misjudged the development of the situation." The emperor was assassinated in the street, and he lost face, how can a criminal commit suicide to calm down? The Li family slapped her in the face!"

Li Rui, the king of the Ming Dynasty, conspired against him and punished the nine clans according to his crimes, that is, he wanted to behead the Li family. Of course, this is impossible, after all, the Li family is a royal family, it is the orthodoxy of the Tang Dynasty, the empress has stolen the throne, and has been criticized by the world, how dare she destroy the royal family again.

If you really want to count it, even she herself is within the nine clans, and she has to be punished together.

Therefore, when she heard that the king committed suicide and did not involve the king of England, she tossed in vain, and she couldn't help pretending to be angry, and took advantage of the topic to detain the king first.

It is conceivable that this matter will set off an uproar, and in the next period of time, the capital is destined to be unpeaceful.

Wu Bencao thought about King Ming, who died generously last night, and felt a little pity, and said: "It's caught, but after all, the King of England has a special identity, and there is no conclusive evidence, so he still has to let go." Taixue and Wu Ansi's gang will definitely fight to the death to rescue their masters. ”

Lao Bai took a bite of food and said, "They said that the emperor left the court this morning and deliberately avoided the group of old ministers on the grounds that he was frightened last night. So until this time, the ministers were still kneeling in the palace, and they wanted to admonish each other to death!"

Confucian literati don't know anything else, what they are best at is to move out of the set of dead advice, Wu Bencao is not surprised at all.

He rubbed the peanuts, his thoughts turned sharply, "The game in the temple is all about verbal skills in the final analysis, as long as Li Xian is innocent, there will be no worries about his life." However, the emperor will never compromise easily, and Li Qianqiu has to make sacrifices and ransom people with things. ”

The emperor can't toss in vain, and it is not enough to sacrifice only one Ming king.

Lao Bai condensed and perceived, and while drinking, he broadcast the live broadcast to Wu Bencao.

"There's a new man in the room. ”

"Yo, take off your felt hat, it's actually a girl! It seems that Taixue also accepts female apprentices, and you will have a chance to find a daughter-in-law in the future!"

"I have to say, her hair is really beautiful. Once we're settled, you'll need to fix my gray hair problem as soon as possible. ”

......

After talking for a while, Lao Bai's expression gradually became serious.

"I know why the emperor is so angry that he doesn't follow the rules and arrests people. It turns out that after last night's assassination, there was an even more serious accident!"

"Oh?" Wu Bencao raised his eyebrows, "What's the matter?"

Lao Bai said: "Listening to the tone of that little girl, her father seems to be a member of the military department, and he was summoned to the palace last night and returned home when it was almost dawn. She eavesdropped on the conversation between her parents, as if she had heard words such as Chengnan, fire, and food transfer, and she didn't know what to say. ”

When he said this, he looked at Wu Bencao with a deep look in his eyes.

"South of the city, fire, grain transfer ......"

Wu Bencao snorted softly, and suddenly his eyes trembled, "I understand what's going on!"

Lao Bai had also figured it out, and said faintly: "Last night, you changed the antidote's bargaining chips, just to tell the movements of the Youzhou Army, right?"

Two hundred miles south of the city, there is a hidden valley, called the upper valley, which is the location where the Youzhou army is secretly stationed. There was a fire there, apparently the news leaked out, and someone did it deliberately.

Therefore, Lao Bai keenly guessed that Wu Bencao told Li Qianqiu about this military situation.

Wu Bencao didn't hide it, lowered his voice and said: "What kind of bullshit party fighting, in my opinion, is a dog biting a dog's hair, and no one is clean." In order to save my brother, I am not even afraid of death, and I will be reluctant to debunk this conspiracy?"

Lao Bai nodded, "That's right, if it were me, I would definitely do the same." Now we all know that last night's farce was actually painstakingly planned by the emperor, in order to catch the king of England, and in the end only one ghost was caught. ”

Wu Bencao said: "Last night, Li Qianqiu almost couldn't hold back, and personally stabbed him, and when he saw that there was a master by the emperor's side, he stopped in advance. If it hadn't been for me, they would still be in the dark, unaware of Wu Jingsi's existence. ”

Lao Bai blinked, "So, after Li Qianqiu learned about it, he didn't do anything, and sent people to sneak into the upper valley, and he was unprepared and burned the grain and grass of the Youzhou army." No matter how much the emperor investigates, the mastermind behind the scenes is still King Ming, and the real value of that person's death is ......"

Wu Bencao said: "The Youzhou army is short of food, and I also told him. In front of the 100,000 army, Li Qianqiu was so anxious that he couldn't deal with it, if it were me, I would also send someone to set fire, forcing the other party to have to make his whereabouts public and leave early. ”

The Youzhou army is hiding outside the city, and if they don't leave for a day, it is a huge threat to the Li family.

Now, a large number of grain and grass tents have been burned, and the material crisis of the Youzhou army has intensified, and there is no choice but to turn to the imperial court for help, and there is no way to hide anymore. Otherwise, they may not even be able to go back to Youzhou.

As a result, two difficult problems were placed in front of the empress.

First, how to explain her motives for transferring troops to the Manchu Dynasty?

If last night, everything was as she expected, Li Qianqiu and Li Xian jumped out to rebel and were caught by her, she could proudly claim that she had insight into the king's rebellion in advance and secretly arranged the Youzhou army to enter Beijing to rescue her.

But the reality is that there is only one king who falls into her trap, and he also committed suicide in fear of crime, so that she didn't even have a chance to be interrogated.

King Ming is too young, he doesn't have huge wings, he is not supported, and he doesn't have any real power, so he can't make much waves. In order to deal with a young man, he mobilized elite soldiers from afar, and mobilized the people like this, who would believe it?

Second, how to arrange follow-up matters?

The Youzhou army has come, if the empress wants to get rid of Li Xian's party, it will be like the autumn wind sweeping the leaves, and now is the best time. But it's a pity that she hasn't found the name of killing Li Xian yet, blocking the mouth of Youyou, and she can't be punished without teaching, and then make up for the crime.

Let the Youzhou Army continue to wait? That is really a big joke in the world.

It can be seen that Li Qianqiu's burning of the upper valley is tantamount to revealing the inside story, forcing the empress to make a decision, and has to give up the original deployment.

The source of this fire is actually Wu Materia Medica.
