Chapter 69: Thinking Behind Closed Doors
This time, Qin Fei hit no one else, it was his own face. Suddenly, his nose collapsed, blood splattered from his face, his skull shattered, and his entire face was immediately deformed.
"Not good!" The old man rushed to take a step further and found that it was too late, and Qin Fei was no longer breathing!
At this moment, many forbidden soldiers with bows and arrows appeared on the wall, and the arrows were aimed at Yi Wuji.
Yi Wuxian smiled bitterly, raised his hands high, and shouted in a strange voice: "Lord Xiao, I won't run!" I swallowed a timed poison and still don't worry about me?! ”
At this time, Xiao Yan, the Qing of Dali Temple, walked in from the gate of the courtyard, looked at the tragic scene in the courtyard, was immediately stunned, and immediately walked quickly to Qin Fei's side. Qin Fei's entire head was blurred with blood clots, and he couldn't see his original face for a long time.
This person is so ruthless and decisive! Xiao Yan stared at Qin Fei, then looked up at Mu Han who was standing in a daze and Yi Wuxian who was being tied up, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, if it weren't for Shi Xubai's sentence "A gentleman can deceive him" to wake him up, if he was his former self, he would not have cooperated with these assassins and Jiangyang thieves anyway.
At this time, a young man hurriedly came outside the door, he glanced at the black-clothed man who fell to the ground, and whispered in Xiao Yan's ear: "The subordinates saw this person snatching out of Song Qiqiu's mansion, but this person's body law was too fast, and his subordinates couldn't keep up with him in time. "This person is the master of spying on Song Qiqiu's mansion.
Xiao Yan was suddenly completely petrified, and it turned out to be Song Qiqiu! I couldn't have imagined that Song Qiqiu, who usually acted like a Fang Wai Immortal family, could do such a despicable thing! Xiao Yan's heart is full of anger, in vain the old man still respected you a little because of your talent in the past, you wantonly murdered the pillars of the country, how can the old man spare you!
Xiao Yan immediately began to arrange on-site treatment and deal with the aftermath. For the two "temporary allies", Xiao Yan first ordered his subordinates to continue to imprison Yi Wuxian, and then turned his head and ordered Mu Han, who had also been slapped in the chaos, to be released, and reprimanded and warned him that if the 'Wushuang Society' committed crimes again in the Southern Tang Dynasty in the future, the 'Wushuang Society' would be wanted throughout the territory. Mu Han, who was holding the silent corpse, only agreed, and immediately left with a bitter face.
After being busy, Xiao Yan went straight back to Dali Temple and began to prepare for the impeachment of Song Qiqiu.
The ambush scene can be described as very lively, but it started quickly and ended faster, and it did not make much impact in the middle of the night in the Jinling City of Nuoda, but it set off a big storm in the Southern Tang Dynasty Hall on the second day.
At the beginning of the next morning, Xiao Yan immediately fell to the ground and shouted: "I am the Tang Dynasty Hall Shangcheng Fox Society rats are rampant, killing loyal ministers, and harming the country, please eradicate it!" ”
As soon as these words came out, the entire quiet court immediately became a hornet's nest. The fox on the city wall and the rat in the temple have always been compared to the villain who relies on power to do evil and is difficult to get rid of for a while.
Taibao and Shang Shu, who were standing in the front row, made Song Qiqiu's eyebrows jump a few times, and he quickly returned to his calm and waveless demeanor; Wei Cen and Cha Wenhui, the privy deputy envoys not far behind him, glanced at each other, and their bodies couldn't help but tremble; The other ministers also looked at each other, and they all had a premonition that something big would happen in the court today!
Li Jing was also taken aback, where did this start, he glanced at the ministers fiercely, and then said, "Where did Xiao Aiqing come from?" ”
Xiao Yan immediately took out the testimony of the assassin Li Wuse and the people who monitored the Song Mansion from his bosom, and handed it over along with his own impeachment of Song Qiqiu.
Li Jing took a thick stack of papers from the eunuch's hand and flipped through it, the more he looked at it, the colder his face became, and his brows became higher and higher. After turning to the top, he stood up suddenly, slammed the paper in his hand to the ground, glared at Song Qiqiu and said, "Song Taibao, how do you explain?" Qin Fei is a person from your house? Could it really be that you are the mastermind who murdered Dr. Lin and framed Liao Jusu?! ”
Wow, the hornet's nest, which was already a little quiet in the court, immediately exploded again. What, these things were done by Song Qiqiu?! Wei Cen and Cha Wenhui's eyes were full of fear, and their bodies couldn't help but shrink back at the same time, as if they wanted to distance themselves from Song Qiqiu, who was not close, but they didn't see Qin Fei in the Song Mansion.
Song Qiqiu knelt down to the ground unhurriedly and picked up the papers on the ground one by one. As soon as he heard Qin Fei's name, Song Qiqiu knew that something must have happened to Qin Fei, but he was still extremely sure in his heart, with Qin Fei's loyalty, he would definitely not leave any obvious evidence.
Just as Song Qiqiu carefully looked through the testimony, the court was extremely quiet. Except for a few people such as Xiao Yan, Jiang Wenwei, and Han Xizai, who were angry and eager to eat a few mouthfuls of Song Qiqiu's meat, the other ministers were full of mixed tastes and anxiety. Song Qiqiu followed the Martial Ancestor Li Yu before he became a success, and he had always been the leading figure of the Southern Tang Dynasty, could he really have done these things? If it is true, wouldn't this Southern Tang Dynasty Hall change again?
Not long after, Song Qiqiu asked softly: "Your Majesty, Lord Xiao thinks that this Qin Fei is from my mansion just because one of his subordinates saw a black shadow leaving our mansion, and then he thinks that the old man is the mastermind behind it, I'm afraid it's a little arbitrary, right?" ”
Li Jing turned his gaze to Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yan knelt on the ground and said loudly: "Your Majesty, since the reform of Lord Lin Fenglin, he has been assassinated twice in succession, and now Lord Liao Jusu Liao, who is participating in the change, has been deliberately framed again, and the mastermind behind it must be the one whose rights and interests have been seriously damaged in the process of change, and he will not be able to escape from the ministers who have lost power in the dynasty; The cost of assassinating Lord Lin is 100,000 yuan, which is by no means affordable for ordinary people; Moreover, the leader behind Lord Lin's second assassination and Lord Liao's framing was the young man named Qin Fei, and the people of my Dali Temple saw Qin Fei leave the Song Mansion with their own eyes, all of which shows that the mastermind behind the scenes is Song Qiqiu! ”
Song Qiqiu still had a calm demeanor, and argued: "Lord Xiao is still full of speculation. The key to this case is the young man named Qin Fei, can Lord Xiao bring that Qin Fei and confront him on the spot to prove Song's innocence? ”
Xiao Yan's momentum was suddenly a little frustrated, and he said: "During the round-up operation of Dali Temple, Qin Fei has personally admitted in front of everyone that it was he who came forward to contact the northern 'Wushuang Society' to assassinate Lord Lin. His Majesty, Weichen requested that the Song Mansion be immediately sealed, interrogated the people of the Song Mansion, and search for evidence of the crime! ”
As soon as Xiao Yan said this, Song Qiqiu didn't speak, but just kowtowed to Li Jing, and two lines of tears ran down his cheeks.
Speaking from the heart, Li Jing also felt that Xiao Yan's evidence was a little insufficient at first. But deep in his heart, he used to be a little dissatisfied with Song Qiqiu, who controlled the court and was good at power, otherwise he would not have sent Song Qiqiu to the local government twice before. Especially since the reform, the cadres led by Song Qiqiu have always stood on the opposite side of the imperial court, which made Li Jing particularly annoyed. Therefore, Li Jingcai sat firmly on the throne and watched Song Qiqiu and Xiao Yan debate.
However, when Song Qiqiu performed like this, Li Jing also felt that Xiao Yan's request was too much, and he was also an old minister of the two dynasties, so how could he have a few credits, so it was too chilling to directly copy the family and seal the mansion!
At this time, the privy deputy envoy Wei Cen rushed out of the train and said loudly: "Your Majesty, Lord Song has been loyal to the country all his life, exhausted and respected, if he only acts like this based on some conjectures that have no real evidence, Weichen thinks that it is definitely not a steady move to hold the country, and it is really inappropriate!" ”
At his behead, the privy deputy envoys Cha Wenhui, Li Zhenggu, and many Song Party figures knelt on the ground one after another, either reprimanding Xiao Yan for acting arbitrarily, or shouting for Song Qiqiu.
Li Jing was also angry in his heart, and he just sat there silently.
At this time, Song Qiqiu kowtowed again, his voice was sobbing, and he played loudly: "Your Majesty, since the old minister assisted the emperor, he has been deeply blessed with the emperor's grace, and he has been a scholar to this day. Over the past 40 years, the old minister has never dared to forget the country, and has cultivated himself daily, but now he is suspicious, thinking that he must have improper shortcomings, and the old minister asks His Majesty to allow the old minister to stay behind closed doors and reflect on his mistakes! ”
As soon as Song Qiqiu said that retreating was the way forward, Li Jing was a little embarrassed, and immediately said, "Song Qing is too worried!" I believe that Lord Xiao's proposal is also to confirm Aiqing's innocence. Previously, Song Qing had written to ask Zhishi on the grounds of old age, but I did not agree. Considering Song Qing's advanced age, it is better to recuperate in the house for a period of time from now on. But I declare that this is by no means for Aiqing to think about it behind closed doors! ”
Subsequently, Li Jing ordered Xiao Yan to recheck the evidence, solve the case quickly, and then turn around and leave. Before a few courtiers who still had a report could speak, Li Jing had already disappeared.
The courtiers in the hall still looked at each other, and none of them moved, wondering in their hearts what the emperor's intention was to play fifty boards each to Song Qiqiu and Xiao Yan?
Especially for the disposal of Song Qiqiu, since ancient times, the court official is seventy years old, and the Song Taibao is sixty-three years old this year, which is a good age for all dynasties and generations who are often eighty years old and refuse to take the initiative to become officials.
Song Qiqiu was also dashing, stood up, and took the lead out of the hall, but this time, none of the courtiers left after him. In the rising morning light, Song Qiqiu's somewhat rickety background pulled out a long shadow, looking lonely and lonely.
