402, interrogation of the eldest grandson queen (above)
Soon, Li Shimin authorized Jingwen to make every effort to solve this case, and he must give the queen an innocence and let the case come to light. Originally, Fang Xuanling Du Ruhui also wanted to let the people in the emperor's palace check internally, and there was no need for Jingwen, a foreign minister, to investigate. But then Wei Zheng said that now the queen is a suspect, and almost none of the people in the palace are credible. As the lord of the six palaces, the queen has now become a suspect, how many eunuchs and palace maids in that palace can believe, who knows if they will all be the queen's henchmen? Although Wei Zheng's words were not so impulsive at that time, the meaning was just like this, and it made it clear that the eunuchs and palace maids in the palace were not very credible. Therefore, this kind of thing can only be checked by foreign ministers.
And the reason why Jingwen was chosen was that the emperor didn't have many familiar people among the courtiers outside. Familiar, that is, a few prime ministers. But let's not talk about whether the prime minister can make a vacancy, but once the prime minister comes out, it means that this matter is strict. Li Shimin wanted to deal with it in a low-key manner, because Li Shimin thought that it was another concubine who framed the eldest grandson, so it was enough to deal with it in a low-key manner. And the prime minister's "tonnage" is too heavy and too eye-catching, so it is inconvenient to deal with this kind of thing. And Jingwen, a courtier who made his fortune by relying on the emperor, has a moderate status, and is also familiar with Li Shimin, and the size and length are just right, so he handed it over to Jingwen.
Jingwen was authorized by the emperor to mobilize the Qianniu guards and prison guards in the palace, but Jingwen did not mobilize them. Jingwen just took Dugu Xin into the back. Palace, go and prepare to interrogate the eldest grandson queen. The reason why Duguxin is brought is because Duguxin is strong in martial arts and is a woman. Although Li Shimin allowed Jingwen to come and go at will during this time. Palace, but it doesn't mean that he allows other men to enter the harem lightly. Therefore, the net amount had no choice but to take the beautiful guard Duguxin into the harem. Although Jingwen didn't believe that Empress Changsun would kill Du Ruhui, but now Empress Changsun was a suspect, so Jingwen had to take a serious look.
"Little brother Jingwen. You have been ordered to investigate this case today. Don't you know that this kind of case involving Gong Yu must be thankless? If you find out, you will not be credited, but you will be suspicious of the emperor. And if it is not found, it is probably another sin. So, how do you do that? Duguxin asked.
Jingwen has watched a lot of costume TV series, of course he knows this kind of thing that involves the secrets of the palace, and that is probably not a good thing. And, if this case finds out. I'm afraid it will be the number one scandal in the palace since the founding of the Tang Dynasty! Whether it is the queen who is a black hand, or the concubine who poisons the prime minister and blames the queen, this is a big scandal. Therefore, this kind of thing must not be careless. If you find out, then you have two possibilities. One is to be reused by the emperor, and the other is to be destroyed by the emperor. This is a combination of risks and opportunities, it depends on how you deal with it, and whether the emperor is generous.
But Jingwen said helplessly: "The emperor has put this responsibility on my head, and my identity is just right." What can I do! I'll just have to bite the bullet and go up. By the way, when are you going to be my real woman? I have a lot of admiration for you! ”
"You-" Dugu Xin was obviously angry.
"Hehe, just kidding, lighten the mood!" Jingwen said.
Jingwen really wanted to make a joke like guò. Let's ease the atmosphere, because if you continue to say this, I'm afraid Jingwen really won't have the courage to investigate. Empress Eldest Sun is a generation of virtuous queens, and Jingwen doesn't want to be her black hand. So. Jingwen inevitably wanted to check and see who was doing it, so that he could return the innocence of Empress Changsun. As for Li Shimin's attitude. Jingwen doesn't think it's a big problem. Because as long as it is not a crime of rebellion, Li Shimin can tolerate it. Even if it is a rebellion, it will leave you a "back road". More than ten years later, Hou Junji rebelled, and in the end, wasn't Hou Junji able to leave a descendant to pass on the ancestry? Even rebellion can leave you a descendant, this kind of palace affairs is nothing.
Jingwen first came to the Lizheng Palace, that is, the sleeping palace of Empress Changsun. And after entering, there was a little girl blocking Jingwen's path at the door.
"Princess Changle, can you get out of the way?" Jingwen said.
"No, you're here to catch the queen mother! I won't let you take the queen mother. Princess Changle grabbed her little fist and said.
"Princess, how did you know that we were here to arrest the eldest grandson? It's all a shadowless thing. Jingwen asked curiously.
"Whole post. The palace has spread all over the palace, saying that the queen mother poisoned Lord Du Ruhui! However, I believe that the Queen Mother would never do such a thing! Princess Changle said.
“fuck!” Jingwen suddenly scolded.
"Fack? What is the meaning? Duguxin asked.
"It's not interesting, it's just a spit!" Jingwen said.
Dugu Xin heard Jingwen spit out new words again, and she wouldn't mind, because she didn't feel weird. But Jingwen felt a lot of trouble in his heart, and now someone is trying to stink the eldest grandson queen! It's only been two hours since I decided to let Jingwen investigate this case just now. In other words, it was only three hours before the incident. However, now that the entire harem has been found out, it is obvious that those bastards have been prepared! When he heard some trouble, he immediately began to spread rumors and make the reputation of Empress Eldest Sun stink! The three of them become tigers, and I am afraid that the eldest grandson queen will not be able to say it clearly. The mastermind behind this, for the post. Gong knows very well, and maybe in the future. The palace has a lot of strength! At least he can influence the post. Palace.
"Who could it be?" Jingwen also muttered in his heart.
"Princess Changle, get out of the way! We're not here to arrest the queen, and now it's not clear, don't stop us! Jingwen said.
"No! I won't let it! You have the ability to step over me! Princess Changle said.
Jingwen was a little embarrassed, he couldn't do anything to this Changle princess! Let's not talk about whether the queen is a black hand, even if you take 10,000 steps back, even if the queen is a black hand, then Princess Changle is also Li Shimin's daughter and a princess. Therefore, Jingwen must not offend her.
"Liz, let them in! I believe that those who are clean will be clear, and those who are turbid will be able to give me back a clean slate. A gentle female voice came from inside the Lizheng Hall.
"Queen Mother!" Princess Changle said unhappily.
And Princess Changle, at the request of Empress Changsun, got out of the way. And Jingwen also entered the Lizheng Hall again and met Empress Changsun. (To be continued......)
