Chapter 144: Drumming
The emperor gritted his teeth in annoyance: "Send someone to the Liang Palace, bring me the one named Gao Sheng!" If you don't go to the house...... Let the Criminal Department arrest it! โ
King Liang lowered his eyes and calculated in his heart, it was about Gao Sheng who knew that he was passed into the palace, so he asked Liu Huanzhang to beat the drum to sue the king of Zhen for treason, although it was not according to the plan, but it was also feasible!
This ...... He and Tong Ji were completely cleaned.
Seeing that King Liang quietly breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed his spine, Bai Qingyan folded his hands and gently tightened them in front of his lower abdomen, hoping that everything would go well.

Outside the Wude Gate, Xiao Ruojiang beat the Dengwen drum loudly.
At that time, people in the world would only think that he was incompetent, and they would only think that he was easy to coax!
The emperor's heart was full of anger and anger.
"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Liang has arrived, and the people are just outside the door......" Gao Demao whispered in the emperor's ear.
"Call that animal in for me!"
Gao Demao turned sideways and asked the little eunuch to go out and call King Liang to come in, the pale King Liang came in from outside the door with a timid face, and when he saw the emperor's gloomy face, his legs seemed to be weak, and he knelt directly at the door, or the little eunuch supported him before he walked to the middle and knelt.
He timidly glanced at the eldest princess and Bai Qingyan, and then spoke: "Son...... The son asked his father to say goodbye. โ
The emperor looked at the submissive son in front of him, and his eyes fell on the letters in front of him...... guess that King Liang, with such a timid and cowardly temperament, can really make such a ...... Imitating people's handwriting to frame the treason of the national government?
The emperor's gaze involuntarily fell on Bai Qingyan, who had been silent, but if this was a bureau set up by Bai Qingyan, what was she trying to do?
Could it be that all the men in the Bai family died, and she also wanted him, the emperor's son, to die?
The emperor's temples jumped, first King Xin, and now King Liang......
"Ann?! Where did I come from?! The Emperor's tone was gloomy, "Beast! Why do you want your personal servant to buy the maid of the Gonggong Mansion and put such a letter in the study of the king of the town?! โ
King Liang trembled and kowtowed, as if he was frightened, and hurriedly admitted: "Father and emperor are angry, and the son is ...... Erchen really admired Miss Bai too much, but Miss Bai hated Erchen very much, so Erchen came up with such a stupid trick! Ask for forgiveness from my father! โ
The emperor narrowed his eyes, and his fingers tapped the letter that was placed in front of the desk: "I admire Miss Bai, so ...... In imitation of the handwriting of the king of the town, a letter of treason was written with the enemy, and it was to be put in the study of the king of the town?! โ
King Liang's eyes widened, and his face was as pale as paper: "Why did my father say this?!" Erchen just wrote a few love letters to Miss Bai! Erchen just wanted to pretend to be the king of the town and force ...... It's just a matter of forcing the big girl Bai to marry her son! โ
"These letters are in Your Majesty's hands...... It was King Liang's personal servant who sent it to the corner gate of our Guogong Mansion, and as soon as this little guy handed over the letter to the girl in our house, it was taken down in full view, and the letter was also opened and read in front of everyone! If Your Majesty doesn't believe it...... You can summon King Liang's personal servant to ask the! The eldest princess choked up and looked at the emperor.
"Yes...... It was Erchen who asked Tong Ji to go! But the son's letter to Tong Ji is clearly a love letter! King Liang seemed to be panicked and didn't know how to prove his innocence, so he hurriedly cried and kowtowed and climbed forward, "If you don't believe it, you can ask Tong Ji!" Even if the son has the audacity, he wouldn't dare to do such a thing! โ
The emperor narrowed his eyes and said, "Bring people in." โ
Soon, Tong Ji and Chunyan, who were tied up strongly, were brought up.
Tong Ji is okay, no matter how he says, he has been with King Liang since he was a child, and it is not that he has never seen the holy driver, but Chunyan was so frightened that he was afraid that the saint's life would be gone, and he shrank there like a quail and trembled vigorously, even shedding tears for fear of being cut by the emperor, and he didn't dare to cry.
"Tong Ji...... Explain it to your father! What kind of letter am I giving you? How could it become a letter imitating the handwriting of the king of the town! โ
"Your Highness, the minions don't know!" Tong Ji was also so frightened that he cried, and King Liang had a virtue, "The slave doesn't know why the love letter became what the fourth lady of the Bai family reads!" โ
Bai Qingyan said slowly: "After His Royal Highness King Liang handed over the letter to you, have you ever left?" Or someone...... Told someone else that His Royal Highness King Liang asked you to hand over the love letter to the maidservant of the Guogong Mansion? If His Royal Highness King Liang is wronged, only if you tell the truth, can you find out the truth. โ
Tong Ji was anxious to clear Liang Wangzheng's innocence, and hurriedly said: "No, no! I swear to God absolutely not! After Your Highness gave it to me, I believe that I have never left me! I never told anyone else! I carried these letters in my arms that night, because I had been wronged for His Highness and didn't sleep all night! That's right...... Gao Sheng also knows about this! These letters were handed to me by Gao Sheng in front of His Highness! โ
Thinking of Gao Sheng, Tong Ji suddenly turned his head to look at King Liang.
"Your Highness! Your Highness, did you ask Gao Sheng to find Chunyan before? The slave listened to the grandmother at the corner gate of the Guogong Mansion...... A cold-faced guard in our house went to look for Chunyan, but Chunyan didn't come out to see her! The ascension is extremely high...... Surely no one will be able to exchange letters from him! That can only be the Ascension of His Highness! The more Tong Ji spoke, the paler his face became, and he was almost sure that Gao Sheng had framed King Liang, and cried, "After the slave got this letter from Gao Sheng...... Gao Sheng didn't come back when he left the house! The minion had long said that a person like Gao Sheng couldn't stay with His Highness, he must have run away......"
King Liang sighed in his heart, he didn't expect Tong Ji to pull out a high ascension!
Bai Qingyan's eyebrows jumped, Tong Ji bit out Gao Sheng, which was an unexpected joy for her.
Gao Sheng is the deceased second prince's old department, when the second prince in order to save Tong Guifei's mother's family, the second prince intended to raise troops to force the palace, and was shot by the emperor in Wude Gate, the second prince can escape and go to King Liang, King Liang has the second prince by his side, what should the emperor think? !
"Even so, then please summon the guards around King Liang Gao Sheng and ask about it! Let's see if someone wants to stir up discord between King Liang and my Bai family, or if His Royal Highness King Liang really wants to kill the Bai family! Bai Qingyan respectfully saluted the emperor and said.
The emperor looked at Bai Qingyan, who was calm and calm, and before he could speak, he heard the shocking drum sound of "Dong Dong Dong-" in the distance.
The Dengwen drum has been standing in Wudemen for nearly a hundred years, and it has always been a symbol of decoration, and no one has ever really dared to knock on this Dengwen drum.
But this year, I don't know what feng shui I committed, and I was beaten twice before I finished Dengwen in a year, how can I get it if I go on like this?!
The emperor's heart was extremely angry, irritable, and his voice couldn't stop rising: "Who is beating the drum again!" โ
"Your Majesty is angry, the old slave has already sent someone out to ask, and someone will come later!" Gao Demao's back is also cold.
The emperor gritted his teeth in annoyance: "Send someone to the Liang Palace, bring me the one named Gao Sheng!" If you don't go to the house...... Let the Criminal Department arrest it! โ
King Liang lowered his eyes and calculated in his heart, it was about Gao Sheng who knew that he was passed into the palace, so he asked Liu Huanzhang to beat the drum to sue the king of Zhen for treason, although it was not according to the plan, but it was also feasible!
This ...... He and Tong Ji were completely cleaned.
Outside the Wude Gate, Xiao Ruojiang beat the Dengwen drum loudly.
