If this matter is really related to Jiang Bing, then the consequences are indeed unimaginable, Zhu Youzhu was shocked, but out of trust in Liu Chengfeng, he finally made a decision. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"Summoning the Jishi Jiang Bing to enter the palace immediately, there must be no mistake, notify the Jiang Mansion that the preparations for welcoming relatives continue, I and Jiang Aiqing just have something to say."
The marriage is going to continue, and now everyone in the world is looking forward to the princess getting married, and now Zhu Youzhu can only make things clear first, if Jiang Bing is not guilty, he will naturally go back to greet his relatives immediately, but if he is guilty, then he can only find another way.
The eunuch took the order and went quickly.
And Liu Chengfeng was sitting under Zhu Youzhang, seeing that Zhu Youzhu was silent, so he didn't speak, he pressed the hand stove on his knees, his knees rose and fell, beating with his toes, his eyes squinted slightly, as if he was closing his eyes to recuperate.
Zhu Youzhang's mind is even more complicated, what he is worried about now is that if Jiang Bing is really involved in the assassination, it is that he, as the Ninth Five-Year Emperor, is afraid that he doesn't know what to do. But he still had luck in his heart, and he just hoped that Liu Chengfeng had made a mistake and whether there was a misunderstanding.
Of course, when he saw Liu Chengfeng, in fact, his heart was not shaken, in his mind, although this Liu Chengfeng is not a Ji Shi, and even an ordinary Tongjin Shi is not even a lifter, but Liu Chengfeng is indeed much more outstanding than Jiang Bing in any aspect, it is no wonder that Princess Taikang likes this guy, but it's a pity...... Zhu Youzhu didn't think about it anymore, the more he thought about it, the more he wavered in his determination, which made him think of his daughter full of pear blossoms.
Originally, at this time, the weather was hot, and there would be some ice basins in the palace to cool down, but this year, the emperor was not in good health, and the weather felt a little cold, so he did not go to the ice basin to cool down, Liu Chengfeng was wearing a dress with big sleeves, and after sitting for a long time, there was a stuffy heat on his body, and no one knew what was hidden in his heart at this time, for him, the decisive battle was about to begin.
ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ Jiangfu.
The guests have arrived a lot, both to marry the princess, plus Jiang Bing is also a scholar, so there are many guests who come, the welcoming team is ready, blowing, playing and singing, and a car of gifts, hundreds of slaves are now wearing new clothes, one by one is full of joy, and Jiang Bing, as the groom, is wearing the groom's dress, at this time is in the middle gate to welcome the guests, looking high-spirited, even the plain face, today also looks extraordinarily handsome.
In the midst of compliments and praises, Jiang Bing responded very decently, and even on the cabinet side, someone sent someone to send gifts, at this time, although he was full of ambition, but on the surface he was extremely modest.
In another hour, it will be ready to welcome the family, so the number of guests who came is also increasing, and some princes and nobles who have not explained are also present at this time, and at this time, a eunuch came quickly, this eunuch did not attract too much attention, after all, the princess got married, and the eunuchs here have already come a lot, and the celebrant has already sent a lot of people here to prepare for Jiang Bing's wedding, not to mention that from time to time there will be eunuchs in the palace to communicate the details of the wedding, as well as the meaning of the queen.
It's just that the eunuch looked in a hurry, and after finding Jiang Bing, he asked Jiang Bing to talk in the study, Jiang Bing didn't ask much, let alone feel curious, after all, sometimes, there were some private matters in the palace to discuss with him, so he immediately introduced the eunuch into the study. In the study, the eunuch conveyed the emperor's will.
Jiang Bing was in a hurry to enter the palace immediately, and the wedding was prepared as usual.
is just a short sentence, but it reveals two meanings, one is that there is an accident in the palace, or he Jiang Bing has an accident, so that at the moment of this wedding, knowing that the groom's entry into the palace may hinder the wedding, but still summoning him, then something must have happened.
As for the second news, it means that things have not gone so bad that they cannot be recovered, otherwise the preparations for this wedding would not have been able to continue. That is to say, Jiang Bing knew that he was in some trouble, but although this trouble was tricky, it was not to the point of despair, he listened to the eunuch's words, smiled, and said in a flat tone: "Weichen obeys the order, and then he will enter the palace with his father-in-law to meet him." ā
Jiang Bing's heart may not be without panic, but soon, this panic was replaced by calmness, because he knew that he still had a trump card, and this trump card was enough to turn him around.
Jiang Bing immediately changed his clothes, found a confidant and family member to give advice, and then went out of the house from the back door with his father-in-law and went towards the Forbidden City.
It's just that there are people in this Jiang Mansion who found that the groom official is gone, and the time to welcome the bride has come, but the groom official has not moved at all, which can't help but make people a little confused, many people are a lot of old people, and they have participated in dozens of weddings without a hundred, and at the time of the wedding, the groom official is always the center of everyone's attention, but this time, the groom official is missing at the most critical juncture, what is going on? Many people whispered, and they couldn't guess for a while, and the ceremonial eunuchs who were responsible for arranging the etiquette were also in a hurry, and went to the inner house several times to urge, but the inner government only said that the new horse was a little tired, and it would take a while.
ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ The silence of the Zhengxin Hall was finally broken by Jiang Bing's arrival, Jiang Bing entered the hall, immediately bowed and saluted, and said in a proper manner: "Weichen has seen Your Majesty." He spoke, but his eyes couldn't help but glance to Liu Chengfeng on the side.
Liu Chengfeng didn't move at all in the face of Jiang Bing's eyes, and didn't pay attention to him at all.
Zhu Youzhu cheered up, raised his hand falsely, and said: "Jiang Aiqing, please get up and speak, it is rude for me to summon you into the palace at this time, but Liu Aiqing has a public case here, but Jiang Aiqing needs to clarify, come, give Jiang Aiqing a seat." ā
Judging from Zhu Youzhang's words, he just wanted to be a referee, and Liu Chengfeng and Jiang Bing were the protagonists in this hall.
Jiang Bing sat down, looked at Liu Chengfeng with a calm face, his eyes flashed, he smiled slightly, and said: "Public case, I don't know what public case it is, please see Lian Guogong." ā
When Jiang Bing reached the point of being a person, although he was not very old, he still had the bearing to be unfazed, and when he spoke, his expression was as usual, and he still maintained politeness, as if he was talking to the people in the palace.
Liu Chengfeng's half-squinted eyes suddenly opened, and he said without hesitation: "Colluding with King Ning, assassinating the ministers of the court, and plotting against him!" ā
This sentence is divided into three paragraphs, each of which is a fatal crime, and if you violate any of them, you will die without a burial.
thought that at this time, Jiang Bing would definitely be flustered, or become emotional, but Jiang Bing's reaction was only a smile, and there was a bit of mockery in this laughter. ā
Liu Chengfeng's eyes met Jiang Bing's, and he said word by word: "What?" Master Jiang doesn't admit it? ā
Jiang Bing's jaw was raised a little arrogantly, a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes, and said, "Why should I admit it?" Am I now slandering adults and plotting against them, and adults should admit it? ā
Liu Chengfeng smiled and said, "Then let me ask you, what's going on with the Jiang family?" ā
Jiang ...... When Liu Chengfeng mentioned the Jiang family, Jiang Bing's face was slightly stunned, and then he sneered: "The Jiang family is my cousin, widowed in my mansion, and now she has died violently, but I don't know why Lord Liu wants to ask about this." ā
Liu Chengfeng said in a flat tone: "Are you just cousins?" Well, since you don't want to admit it, I'll start at the beginning. Liu Chengfeng paused: "That day I was ordered to go to Jiangfu, on behalf of Empress Zhang asked if you would like to be Chenglong's fast son-in-law, after you agreed, you invited me to eat, and no matter what your intention was to invite me to eat, after three rounds of wine, I came out to go to the toilet, and saw a house secluded, so I couldn't help but go there, but I was stopped by the housekeeper of Jiangfu, saying that it was haunted there......"
"Later, I learned that not long ago, someone died in that deserted courtyard, and not only that, but it was Jiang's cousin Jiang who died. And the rumors in the mansion, even the Shuntian Mansion believe that this must have been killed by evil ghosts, the reason is very simple, the Jiang family's death is very similar to strangulation of himself. How can a person strangle himself to death? In addition, the Shuntian Mansion has checked the courtyard one by one, and I really believe that the family members in the mansion did not stay in that courtyard that night, and no one in the mansion dared to enter the courtyard, especially at night, because before that, there had been haunted there. Moreover, there are no traces of the wall courtyard in the mansion being turned over, so it can also be confirmed that there are no outsiders in the Jiang Mansion. Shuntianfu concluded that this was Jiang's suicide, and finally thought that it was done by ghosts and gods, which at first glance sounded understandable. ā
Zhu Youzhu listened carefully and didn't pull down a word, but at this time, he didn't interrupt Liu Chengfeng, but at this time, he also felt that Jiang's death was a little incredible.
Liu Chengfeng immediately sneered and said: "Others believe in this kind of nonsense, but Liu never believes that there are any ghosts and gods in this world, in Liu Chengfeng's opinion, Jiang's death must be man-made, she is ostensibly a suicide, but Liu Chengfeng can conclude that this must be a suicide." There is only one reason, that is, it is impossible for people to strangle themselves, because when people choke themselves, once they do not breathe, they will fall into a coma, and the unconscious person still has breath, but the strength to choke his neck is gone, and as soon as the force is loosened, the breathing is smooth again, and then he can quickly wake up, so in this world, there are people who swallow gold and die, some hang themselves, and even some people die by killing themselves, but they have never heard of someone strangling themselves. ā
