Chapter Seventy-Nine: Heavy Punishment
After Fan Xian heard this, he smiled and said, "Thank you for the reminder!" ”
Father-in-law Hou said again: "Remember to bow your head after entering, don't look at each other!" ”
After speaking, the three of them entered the imperial study, and Ye Xuan and Fan Xian were able to get a glimpse of the whole hall. Walking into the imperial study, the first thing to meet is two teams of ironclad guards, and the momentum is compelling!
Walking through the long corridor, Ye Xuan vaguely saw a figure in iron armor. When I got closer, it turned out to be a model, or more accurately, it was a target, and the center of the target was the heart guard on the iron armor, full of arrows. And it was surrounded by books, he looked around, if Emperor Qing's bedroom gave him the feeling of luxury, then the imperial study is four words, simple and clear!
At this time, the huge imperial study was empty, like a sleeping lion, exuding a deadly majesty all the time, making people dare not slack off for a moment!
At this time, Father-in-law's voice came again!
"Two sons, Your Majesty asked you to wait here!"
Ye Xuan nodded to indicate that he knew, smiled freely, there was no trace of panic on his face, and he began to close his eyes and recuperate. He knew that Emperor Qing was around, but this time his focus was not on himself, but on Fan Xian, more precisely, it should be the father watching his son!
In this case, there is no need for him to help them stage a scene of 'father and son'!
After about half a quarter of an hour, Fan Xian became a little impatient and said, "Your Majesty, Lao Ye and I are waiting outside!" Are you there? Your Majesty! ”
Father-in-law's face changed greatly, and he just wanted to step forward to persuade him. But after thinking about it, as soon as the words reached my throat, I swallowed it again!
Fan Xian ignored the changes in his father-in-law, pretended to be a newborn calf who was not afraid of tigers, and continued to ask loudly: "Your Majesty, Lao Ye and I are here, are you there?" ”
"Your Majesty!?"
As soon as Fan Xian's words fell, Ye Xuan only heard two slight coughs behind him, and he was just about to salute.
Emperor Qing waved his hand to signal that he didn't need to, and Father-in-law Hou hurriedly reminded on the side: "Master Fan, why don't you hurry up and kneel down and salute?" ”
When Fan Xian heard this, he was shocked, but he still asked, "Your Majesty, do I want to kneel?" As soon as his words came out, Emperor Qing's voice came from behind and asked, "Fan Xian, do you want to kneel?" ”
Although Fan Xian was still surprised, he still replied straightforwardly: "Then naturally I don't want to!" ”
"Ye Dacai, what about you?"
Although Ye Xuan didn't understand why Emperor Qing asked him like this, he hugged his fists and saluted, and said without humility or arrogance: "If Your Majesty allows it, the minister naturally doesn't want to." ”
Seeing this, the beads of sweat on his face became more and more obvious, for fear that Emperor Qing would be angry and implicated himself.
"I don't want to, young man, and he is famous, so he naturally has to be a little arrogant!" Emperor Qing spoke in a cordial tone, looked at the two of them with interest, and continued with a look of approval: "I think back then, I was the same, so I can naturally understand your feelings!" ”
Fan Xian didn't hesitate at all, and said softly: "Then Lao Ye and I, thank Your Majesty!" ”
"But..."
"It is a great sin of disrespect to see the king and not to worship! Can you wait? Emperor Qing's faint voice came again.
Fan Xian listened to Emperor Qing's words, his face changed greatly, he could be regarded as having encountered a hard stubble this time!
"Your Majesty, Fan Xian is guilty!"
Seeing this, Ye Xuan also hurriedly saluted: "The minister is guilty!" ”
.........
After a while, Emperor Qing looked at the demeanor of the two, smiled, and said softly: "Don't be afraid, stand up first, I won't blame you." Just one thing for you? ”
Ye Xuan and Fan Xian replied in unison: "Your Majesty, please speak!" ”
"How did Lin Heng die?"
Fan Xian's face changed, and he was the first to answer: "Lao Ye and I don't know the second son, so there is no reason to kill him at all!" ”
Emperor Qing picked up a book on the bookshelf at random, and said lightly: "The two of you almost died in the assassination on Niulan Street, and Lin Hui was the initiator of the assassination on Niulan Street. Is there no reason now? ”
Ye Xuan said with a look of surprise: "It turned out that the second son wanted to kill the two of us." ”
"Ye Xuan, you interrogated the manager at night, didn't you even ask a name?"
"The minister is wronged, the manager really didn't say it! Your Majesty! Ye Xuan's face changed greatly, and he said with some excitement.
After Emperor Qing heard this, he just let out a faint sigh, and then said: "The prince and Lin Xiang already know about this matter, and they want to see you and Fan Xian." How do you say? ”
"Everything is arranged by His Majesty!" Ye Xuan replied respectfully.
Emperor Qing smiled bitterly, the corners of his mouth subconsciously curled, and said lightly: "I just think it's a little funny!" ”
"What's funny?" Ye Xuan asked subconsciously.
"You said if a guy killed someone and stole something. One is a capital crime, the other is exiled, what crime will the Kyoto Prefecture Yamen condemn him? Emperor Qing asked curiously.
"According to the law of the country, from the heavy punishment, it is naturally a capital crime!" Ye Xuan replied.
Emperor Qing looked at Ye Xuan with a calm face, then turned around, threw a piece of tissue paper to Father-in-law, and suddenly said loudly: "Father-in-law Hou, you read it to him!" ”
"According to the maid from the Royal Palace, she said that she saw Ye Gongzi's private meeting at night..."When Father-in-law Hou read this, his face was full of panic, and his voice became fragmented.
"Keep reading!" Emperor Qing said impatiently.
