"This may be your hard work." Song An said, "In this way, no one will doubt it." ”

Chu Jifeng's face was half dark, and his eyes were as deep as a well: "This king has always done things for the emperor, so General Song said, if this king really arrests these girls, who will it mean?" ”

Prime Minister Gu and Song An's faces immediately changed in shock, especially Prime Minister Gu Cheng, who reprimanded him with some anger: "Lord Wang, please be careful!" ”

Song An also said: "If this is what King Ling did, and it is also what you meant, you dare to involve the emperor?!" ”

Chu Jifeng looked at the loyal and patriotic appearance of the two, and he couldn't stand it.

But it is also because of this that Emperor Qiwu will reuse the two, because people who are loyal to the monarch are not easily tempted by interests and will always be loyal to themselves.

Su Yinyue pressed Chu Jifeng's hand and asked him not to argue meaninglessly with the two, her eyes were solemn, and her voice was clear: "The prince sent a female spy to be deliberately kidnapped by those thieves, and the female spy was smeared with special spices, and her location can be tracked with hunting dogs." Strange to say, the hound came to a stop near the Cloud Palace. ”

Song An heard this, and he already slapped his palm on the table, and said angrily: "The more you talk about it, the more outrageous it becomes!" The Cloud Palace is a royal palace, if you dare to speak wildly here, I will immediately enter the palace to report to the emperor! ”

"Song An, sit down!" Gu Cheng suddenly glared at him and shouted.

"Brother-in-law......" Song An's brows twisted into Sichuan characters, "They are actually humiliating the royal family, how can this be endured!" ”

"Have you forgotten about His Highness's sending rice? What's so surprising about this. Gu Chengxiang's eyes flashed with a gleam, much calmer than Song An, "There are a lot of people outside, you speak quietly." ”

Song An remembered that Mrs. Song had mentioned this to him, he pursed his lips and said, "The emperor is fair and strict, hasn't he punished His Highness?" ”

In his thoughts, Emperor Qiwu would never do anything to harm the people.

Prime Minister Gu sighed and shook his head lightly: "That's because the people are angry, so the emperor will issue an edict to condemn the crime, originally the emperor just wanted to reprimand a few words and give up." ”

After experiencing this incident, Gu Cheng believed what Su Yinyue said, after all, the Cloud Palace was the best royal palace, and Emperor Qiwu had only been there for summer vacation the previous year.

"Then the emperor is still fair and strict in the end!" Song An said.

Su Yinyue sneered and said, "General Song would rather fall asleep all the time and never wake up?" Fortunately, you didn't lead the troops to fight as the commander, you are so brainless, you should only rush forward, right? Where will the advice be given? ”

Song An was very displeased, and stared at Su Yinyue with fire-breathing eyes: "Don't think that if you save my mother, you can humiliate me at will!" ”

"I'm not humiliating you, I just want to say that being a man is to be loyal, but sometimes you can't be foolish and loyal, otherwise it will bring disaster to the country and the people." Su Yinyue Zhengse said, "As a courtier, although you must be loyal to the monarch, you must be more responsible to the people. ”

"That's right." Prime Minister Gu nodded, "Water can carry a boat and can also overturn a boat, if you want the country to have long-term peace and stability, and the Daqi country will never be broken, you must first let the people live and work in peace and contentment." This time, many girls suffered one after another, not only the people of the capital, but even the people of the villages and towns within a radius of ten miles are also panicked, I am the minister of a country, and I should find out the truth as soon as possible! Even if this matter has something to do with the royal family, I can't ignore it! ”

When Song An heard this, he only felt his blood boiling, and nodded busily in agreement: "What my brother-in-law said is reasonable, it is exactly what I think in my heart!" But the case ...... Does it really have anything to do with the royal family? ”

"There is a pond in the Cloud Palace, and there are a lot of silvertail fish, which is a must for making fish soup." Chu Jifeng said leisurely, "Since the imperial concubine became pregnant, every ten days the Cloud Palace will send a cart of silvertail fish to the palace. ”

Song An's mind couldn't turn, and he said impatiently: "Obviously talking about the girl's disappearance, why did you get involved with the silvertail?" ”

Prime Minister Gu Cheng heard it and asked, "Princess Fang Cai said that the hunting dogs stopped near the Cloud Palace, those girls may be in the Cloud Palace, could it be that the ones in the car are not silvertails, but girls?" ”

"It's not." Su Yinyue shook her head, "The emperor should have asked people to send Jin Dan into the palace, so he will use this trick to avoid people's eyes." ”

"Jin Dan?"

The more they listened, the more confused they became.

Su Yinyue took a deep breath and continued: "There is a kind of Gu technique in Dongning Kingdom, using a girl with an innocent upper body to refine medicine, which can refine a kind of golden pill that stabilizes the middle qi and prolongs life. Gu Xiang, the emperor only had a serious illness a few years ago, but now that you look at the emperor, how can there be any traces of serious illness? This kind of golden pill should be taken every ten days, and the cycle of three months cannot be interrupted, which coincides with the time period of the silvertail fish transported into the palace. ”

Hearing this, Gu Chengxiang's body began to tremble, his face was annoyed and questioning, and he muttered, "Impossible, Princess Ling, this is just your speculation!" ”

"yes, do you have proof?" Song An almost wanted to draw his sword and slash indiscriminately, he was loyal to Emperor Qiwu, how could he believe that Emperor Qiwu would do such a cruel thing.

He looked at Prime Minister Gu and said, "Brother-in-law, let's enter the palace now and explain this matter to the emperor!" The two of them dare to slander the Holy One like this, they really deserve death! ”

Prime Minister Gu didn't answer, he was still in shock.

Chu Jifeng looked indifferent and said, "General Song, even if you go, you will startle the snake." At that time, the girls who were locked up there were either transferred and continued to be imprisoned, or they were killed and destroyed. ”

"You...... You don't put the blame on me. Song An stuttered a little.

"This king has already given the location, whether you go to check it or not, whether you go to save people or not, it's all your business." Chu Jifeng turned his head away, looking at Su Yinyue's eyes with endless gentleness, "Let's go and meet Old General Qin, this bit of courtesy is still needed." ”

"Okay." Su Yinyue nodded, got up and picked up the blanket on his lap, and then put a cloak on him, and the two left hand in hand.

Only Prime Minister Gu and Song An were left in the warm pavilion.

Prime Minister Gu looked out the window, his eyes dim and distant.

The plum blossom showed its flawless posture in the wind, but he had no intention of appreciating it at the moment.

"Brother-in-law, what do they mean by leaving?" Song An couldn't make up his mind, it was so cold that his forehead was sweating, "Let's go to the palace!" ”

"Don't enter the palace!" Prime Minister Gu Cheng drank people.

"Brother-in-law, do you really believe what they say? It's not like you don't know who King Ling is! ”

"Although King Ling is scheming and cunning, Princess Ling is a fair and honest person, her words ...... I can still believe it. Gu Chengxiang said.

Song An was not convinced, and said: "If they really care about the people, why don't they save people themselves?" Why talk to us? They just don't have a mind! ”
