Chapter Forty-Six: Hidden Murder
"Someone, arrest Li Congjia for me immediately." The angry Li Jing slapped the table hard, the bruises on his face were exposed, and the anger had reached its peak.
The people in the palace were silent, standing aside and not even daring to take a breath.
Li Jing's anger at the moment is unprecedented in all these years.
When he was young, Li Jing often lost his temper, and it seems that because he has grown older, people's emotions have gradually stabilized, so he rarely gets angry.
But today's Li Jing is indeed angry, and he is angry and rushes to the crown, which is simply uncontrollable.
Not for anything else, just because he went to Jiang Cairen's dormitory today, and accidentally found that there were two more things in Jiang Cairen's palace.
It is indeed very chaotic in the palace at times, and since the Tang Dynasty, scandals in the palace have been reported frequently.
However, the monarchs of the Southern Tang Dynasty had quite strict requirements for **, so there were very few scandals.
Li Jing was extremely disgusted by this matter, and because of this, when he found out about this matter today, he was angry, and he had already severely blamed Jiang Cairen, and was forcing him to ask where those two things came from.
"Your Highness, you have done this recklessly." In Li Hongji's mansion, Mr. Zheng frowned slightly, as if he disagreed with what Li Hongji had done.
Li Hongji's face was cold, and his eyes flashed with a sense of absoluteness, "Wrong is wrong, the sixth brother deceived me too much, you don't have to worry about this matter." ”
Mr. Zheng sighed, he naturally understood that with Li Hongji's temperament, there must be revenge, and Li Yu made a big mess this time, and the whole plan has been frustrated, if he doesn't retaliate, it won't be Li Hongji.
At this moment, the night is deep, but it is destined to be an unquiet night.
Jinling City, outside the mansion of Zhou Zong, was full of soldiers at the moment, and under the light of torches, Feng Lun, the capital garrison wearing armor, came to the front of the Zhou Mansion step by step.
"Call the door." Feng Lun commanded with a solemn face.
The door of the Zhou Mansion was quickly opened, and an old servant in coarse linen clothes appeared in the door, and he looked out in surprise, "Who are you?" This is Zhou Situ's home. ”
"We have been ordered to come to the Sixth Highness and open the door quickly." Feng Lun had frost on his face, he came this time, he had a holy decree in his hand, and he was not afraid of Zhou Zong's obstruction.
A look of horror flashed on the old servant's face, he retracted his head for a while, and said loudly in the door: "You wait, I'll go back to Situ." ”
Listening to the footsteps, he had already run to the backyard, and looking at his expression, he was a little surprised.
Zhou Zong was drinking tea at the moment, he had just drunk a lot of wine, and his head was a little heavy.
When the old servant broke into the house, Zhou Zong had just put down the teacup, and when he saw the old servant's hot look, he frowned, "What's so flustered?" ”
"A large number of people came from outside, saying that they were looking for the Sixth Highness, but I don't know what happened." The old servant already had beads of sweat on his head, anxious and suspicious.
"It's okay, go and open the gate, let them in, and say that the Sixth Highness is here with me, but the people who have already drunk are unconscious, let them wait, and I will wake up the Sixth Highness." Zhou Zong sighed lightly, stood up, and walked towards the inner hall.
Looking at Zhou Zong's appearance, the old servant let go of his heart a little, walked out of the hall, and walked towards the door.
Li Yu was indeed in the Zhou Mansion at the moment, and he was already drunk.
When Feng Lun saw Li Yu, he still seemed delirious, full of alcohol, and his mouth was still yelling to continue drinking.
"Lord Feng, His Royal Highness Sixth has been drunk for a long time, and he has not yet sobered up, why don't you go into the house and have a cup of tea, and wait for His Highness to sober up a little, and then you will enter the palace with him." Zhou Zong stared at Feng Lun with a smile and said, but although his tone was polite, the displeasure had already been written in his eyes.
"Thank you, Lord Zhou, the emperor's order is here, and the last general will not dare to delay, so I will take the Sixth Highness back to the palace to hand over the decree." Feng Lun bowed and saluted Zhou Zong, looking very respectful, but the disdain between his eyebrows was undoubtedly revealed.
Zhou Zong, as an important minister in the court, has a comprehensive grasp of the following situation, this Feng Lun and Zhao Chenxiang, the head of the Terracotta Division, are brothers, and the last time Li Yu was searched was the Terracotta Division under the jurisdiction of Zhao Chenxiang.
Zhao Chenxiang made a disgraced face, but this time it was Feng Lun who came, it seemed that he felt that this time he would definitely be able to help his brother save some face, so he was very arrogant.
"Since this is the case, General Feng escorted His Royal Highness Sixth into the palace first, and the old man came later." Zhou Zong smiled slightly, said no more, turned around and went back into the mansion, and changed his clothes.
A touch of disdain flashed on Feng Lun's face, he glanced at Li Yu, who was still shaky, and ordered someone to wait to help Li Yu, then carry him into a sedan chair, and get up directly and go back to the palace.
Li Jing said that he wanted to arrest Li Yu, but Feng Lun knew that after all, they were father and son, and he couldn't tie Li Yu with a rope no matter what, so he still carried Li Yu into the palace in a soft sedan chair with the etiquette of His Royal Highness.
Li Jing was already waiting anxiously at the moment, and the anger in his heart had not subsided. Just as he was annoyed, there was a sound of echoes outside.
"Back to Your Majesty, General Feng Lun returned to the palace to hand over the decree, and has brought His Royal Highness the Sixth." A little eunuch stood at the door, trembling and replying to Li Yu.
"Bring it in." Li Yu's face was cold, and a murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
Li Yu was helped into the house, he was still full of alcohol at the moment, and his mind still didn't seem to be sober.
"Your Highness Six, hurry up and give your majesty a salute." The little eunuch on the side called Li Yu softly, as if hoping that he would stop angering Li Jing, who was already angry.
Li Yu narrowed his eyes at this moment, glanced at Li Jing who was sitting on it, suddenly grinned, raised his hand, and said loudly, "Father, I just drank a jar of good wine from Lord Zhou's family, and now the wine is strong, how about you and my father and son drink some more?"
Li Yu was drunk, no matter how he looked at it, he didn't seem to pretend to be there, which made Li Jing's anger reach its peak, he slapped the armrest of the chair heavily, and roared loudly, "Li Congjia, are you guilty?" ”
"Son, son, son doesn't know how to get drunk, son still wants to drink." Li Yu answered the question, and it seemed that he was really drunk.
Hearing Li Yu's answer, Li Jing was even more angry, stood up, and walked quickly towards Li Yu, as if he wanted to hit him, but unexpectedly, Li Yu suddenly leaned around, and he opened his mouth and began to vomit next to the arm of the little eunuch who was holding him.
Seeing such a situation, Li Jing couldn't help but be stunned, he really didn't expect that Li Yu was really drunk, and seeing him vomit at the moment, it wouldn't be fake.
Surprised in his heart, he took two steps back, covered his nose, and hurriedly waved his hand, "Take it out, let him sober up, what kind of body will he become." ”
Li Yu was taken down to sober up, and someone quickly began to clean up the house, and at this moment, Zhou Zong asked to see him outside the palace.
