Chapter 65: Thunder!
Qianwu Palace, Qianyuan Palace.
Zhou An met the empress, and he had been told for nearly half an hour, and first said about the prison beheading Cao Jing, in fact, Zhou An didn't say anything about it, and the empress already knew about it, but Zhou An, as the eunuch, should explain it to the empress.
After that, it was about the design to arrest the Pure Land cultists and interrogate them.
In Geng Qiunian's memory, Zhou An knew too many secrets of the Pure Land Sect, not only about Wu Xukuan, but Zhou An only reported to the empress about Wu Xukuan.
The empress didn't care about other things, she only had Wu Xukuan in her eyes now, and the 100,000 soldiers and horses that Wu Xukuan recruited from the river were like a boulder pressing on her heart.
Time is really running out!
When Wu Xukuan will force the palace, no one can say for sure!
He certainly won't be delaying it for too long!
The pressure of the empress is not ordinarily great, although she is a daughter, but she bears the fate of the Jiangshan Sheji, and the fate of the Wu dynasty, she once knelt on the side of the Shendu empress's couch before the death of the empress of Shendu, and took the hand of the empress of Shendu to make a promise, and will never let the more than 300 years of Dongqian be lost in her hands!
Never!
But now!
If you look at the overall situation, the empress is gone!
Wu Xukuan's collusion with the Pure Land Sect is like a life-saving straw for her, as long as she catches it, she can make the entire martial arts rivers and lakes, and let the unruly people in the rivers and lakes, oppose Wu Xukuan together!
She must create enough trouble for Wu Xukuan, or a crisis, before she can delay it any longer and have a chance to breathe! There is a possibility of a turnaround!
“…… It was not the first time Geng Qiunian had met Wu Xukuan, before that, they had met, Wu Xukuan had spent a lot of money in recent years to hire Pure Land Sect assassins and assassinate the feudal officials who did not conspire with him, and the year before last, Li Geng, the governor of Xiashan Prefecture in the southwest, was wiped out by the Jianghu people, and it was Wu Xukuan who hired the Pure Land Sect to do ......"
Zhou An bowed and said.
Empress Shenzhao couldn't sit still anymore, walked out from behind the bead curtain, and got closer to listen to Zhou An.
“…… Geng Qiunian left all the more than ten letters that he had communicated with Wu Xukuan over the years, and hid them in the rudder of the Pure Land Sect in White Dragon City...... Holy! General Gao Honggao was in the prison with the minions before, he knew where the evidence was, and went out of the city directly after leaving the prison, he asked the minions to be the saint on his behalf, saying that he would return within five days and present the evidence to the saint! ”
"Good!" The Empress Dayue! Say hello!
For many days, the empress didn't think about tea and dinner, and she couldn't sleep at night, and her mind was full of things about Wu Xukuan! The slightest sound of wind and grass would startle her.
She hadn't smiled in days, and she was under a lot of pressure.
After listening to Zhou An today, he finally showed a smile, changed the haze on his face before, and the whole person was much more energetic and dazzling.
Gao Hong left the city without permission, in this dangerous period, as the commander of the Shence Army, it was naturally wrong for him to do so, but the empress would never blame Gao Hong, or rather, Gao Hong understood the empress's mind, the empress just wanted evidence, the sooner she got it, the better!
And there must be no mistakes in this evidence, and it is only safe for Gao Hong to go in person.
"Xiao Anzi, this is a good thing! I am very relieved. The empress took two more steps forward and looked directly at Zhou An, "When the dust settles on this matter, I will reward you again!" ”
"Slave thank God for your grace!" Zhou An knelt and kowtowed.
The empress hasn't been rewarded yet, Zhou An is grateful first!
However, since the empress has made a promise, there will definitely be a reward! When the dust settled, she naturally meant waiting for Gao Hong to come back with the evidence! She wants to see the evidence with her own eyes!
******
On the afternoon of the sixth day of October, Gao Hong returned.
Gao Hong said that he would return in five days, but in fact it only took three days!
In order to get back the evidence as soon as possible, Gao Hong went on the road alone, although Bailong City is also in Zhongzhou, but it is hundreds of miles away from Qianjing, he is afraid that he has to run thousands of miles back and forth, not only has to hurry, but also has to sneak into the Pure Land Sect rudder to get the evidence.
Gao Hong can be said to be desperate!
But then again, with his strength and Zhou An's detailed explanation, it was not difficult for him to infiltrate the Pure Land Sect rudder to get evidence, and it was not even difficult to destroy that rudder.
On the morning of the seventh day of October.
Rumors spread in Qianjing City, it is rumored that Wu Xukuan colluded with the Pure Land Sect to assassinate Princess Yunjing, and the evidence is conclusive!
Thunder on the ground!
The whole Qianjing City is a sensation! The matter quickly became known to everyone!
Moreover, no one thinks it's fake! Because the news came from the palace!
It is said that in the early days of the Dynasty, Empress Shenzhao smashed the evidence on Wu Xukuan's face in front of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty! The evidence is all correspondence between Wu Xukuan and the Pure Land Sect.
The empress asked Wu Xukuan in public!
Of course, Wu Xukuan denied this, saying that the letters were all fabricated, and someone framed him, and the empress took out the token that Wu Xukuan handed over to the Pure Land Sect to facilitate affairs, and Wu Xukuan also said that it was forged.
The two quarreled in court!
The courtiers dare to quarrel with the emperor, this kind of thing is really no one can do it except Wu Xukuan! And until the end of the early dynasty, the empress didn't say anything about Wu Xukuan, and even said that she would send someone to investigate in detail, as if she believed Wu Xukuan's words!
Of course, the empress didn't believe in Wu Xukuan, but she couldn't move Wu Xukuan now!
But after this trouble, Wu Xukuan's collusion with the Pure Land Sect will immediately become known all over the city, and it is estimated that it will not be long before the whole world will know!
Perhaps, the people of the rivers and lakes will not believe the empress immediately, the evidence may indeed be fabricated, Wu Xukuan wants to rebel, the empress wants to kill Wu Xukuan, and the relationship between the two is not a secret.
But the people of the rivers and lakes will check!
It is about the Pure Land Sect, the first cult, and they will definitely be concerned! In particular, Wu Xukuan's collusion with the Pure Land Sect is a very dangerous signal for the people of the rivers and lakes, so they must find out!
As long as the people in the rivers and lakes are willing to check, they will definitely be able to find something!
Jianghu people will inevitably stand on the opposite side of Wu Xukuan!
Waiting for Wu Xukuan, it must be a steady stream of assassinations of righteous people in the rivers and lakes, although Wu Xukuan is in the Tiangang Realm, but there is not no Tiangang Realm on the rivers and lakes, on the contrary, most of the Tiangang Realm is in the rivers and lakes! In addition to the four great masters, many of the famous and decent heads of the rivers and lakes who have been inherited for hundreds of years and thousands of years are all Tiangang grandmasters!
It is not impossible for the Tiangang Realm Grandmaster to make a move against Wu Xukuan.
In short, Wu Xukuan is in big trouble!
And it was noon on this day.
In the Dongqian Imperial Palace, another big event happened, in fact, this can only be regarded as a small matter compared to the rumors of Wu Xukuan's collusion with the Pure Land Sect in the morning, but only in the inner palace, this is a change of day!
Kang Longji, the chief manager of Ouchi, personally took action and arrested Gu Huaiyong, the second chief of the four guards and horses in Ouchi!
