Chapter 685: Taboo

Hao Feng sent Zhao Zhiyu back to the cell and brought her some clean quilts to keep out the cold. "It's not too early, the princess should rest early, in order to ensure the safety of the princess, the humble position will let people stay outside the princess's door, and the princess only needs to scream if she has anything."

"Thank you."

"The princess is polite."

After Hao Feng left, Zhao Zhiyu sat down on the quilt, and she didn't know what Qin Yiyan was doing outside, she should have asked Hao Feng just now.

In a daze, Zhao Zhiyu lay on the quilt and fell asleep.

As night fell, a horse-drawn carriage on Dong'an Street in Longyang City galloped quickly on the street, and after the carriage crossed the street, it came to a relatively hidden house and stopped.

The coachman quickly jumped out of the carriage and bent down on the ground to make a man's bench.

Suddenly, the curtain of the carriage was lifted, and a young man in a white silk robe stepped on the back of the attendant and stepped down from the carriage.

The attendant hurriedly opened the courtyard door, and the white-clothed boy walked in with a fan.

"Is everything arranged?" The man in white asked.

"Childe, rest assured, everything is arranged, and you are guaranteed to be satisfied."

The man in white nodded and walked into the room.

It wasn't long before another carriage arrived at the door, and many sons arrived in the house.

All the attendants stood guard in the courtyard, as if the people in the house were plotting something unseemly.

At this time, a team of people rushed to the gate of the hospital, and the doctor made a loud "bang", the gate was kicked open, and a team of forbidden soldiers rushed in.

"Arrest all the people in the yard, and not let anyone in the house go."

"Yes."

The forbidden army stepped forward one after another and surrounded the house.

The forbidden army led by him stepped forward and kicked open the door of the house, and a thick smoke came to his face.

The people in the room seemed to be completely unaware of what was going on outside, and there was no movement in the room.

The forbidden army waved away the smoke on his face, looked at the person lying on the couch with a big cigarette in his hand and waved his hand, and the forbidden army behind him stepped forward to arrest them.

Early the next morning, the second son of the Sima family was stabbed in front of Emperor Kang Lin with a group of children of the official eunuch family eating big tobacco in Longyang City.

Emperor Kang Lin called a furious crown, and almost didn't tear Sima University Scholar on the main hall!

"It's really a big dog's guts, you dare to eat a lot of smoke in Longyang City, Sima Jun, a good grandson you taught!"

Smoke is definitely a taboo for Emperor Kanglin, twenty years ago, Emperor Kanglin's brother became crazy because of this thing, and finally jumped into the river and drowned.

Emperor Kang Lin has always had a good relationship with this younger brother, and he did not come out for a long time after his brother's death, and he directly executed the envoy of the vassal kingdom who brought the big smoke to Longyang, which almost caused a war between the two countries, but in the end, after Li Taifu went to the vassal country to explain the situation, this war was avoided.

But for many years afterward, Emperor Kang Lin has always strictly forbidden the import of big cigarettes, and once discovered, he will be severely punished.

Now that such a thing has broken out, it may also be that Sima Jun's grandson Sima Qing is the leader, as long as the crime is convicted, then Sima Qing will definitely die, and the five horses may not be able to calm the anger of Emperor Kanglin.

Sima Jun was angry and anxious, and he was even more afraid that this matter would involve the entire Sima family.

"Old eight, this matter belongs to Jing Zhao Yin, let the people from Jing Zhao Yin's Mansion investigate, and we must find out clearly."

Jing Zhaoyin hurriedly bowed forward. "Yes."

After the next court, Sima Jun immediately rushed back to the house and asked his eldest son Sima Yi to call back.

There are not many people in the Sima group who are officials in the court, only the head of the family, Sima Jun, is a bachelor in the Hanlin Academy and the second son is an editor in the Hanlin Academy, and most of the others are in the famous academies in Daqin as mountain chiefs or teachers, it can be said that the students of the Sima family are all over the world, which is why there are not many people in the Sima family who are officials in the court, but they are very prestigious.

Sima Qing's father was the head of the mountain at the top of Longyang City, and he was not in the house on weekdays.

Sima Qing's arrest was known at dawn in Sima's house, and as soon as Sima Jun came back, Mrs. Sima came out crying.

"Father, you must save Qing'er." Mrs. Sima has been married to the Sima family for many years, and she gave birth to a son Sima Qing, who has been hurting since she was a child, and now that such a big thing has happened, she has long panicked.

Sima Jun is very upset now, Sima Qing is his grandson, how can he not feel distressed, but this is a big crime to kill his head, he is not only worried about Sima Qing now, but also worried about whether the whole house will be affected by this unscrupulous descendant.

Now I heard Mrs. Sima crying again, and I felt that my head was too big. "On weekdays, the old man asks you to discipline well, but you don't listen, what's the use of crying when you make such a big deal now!"

"Wow......" Mrs. Sima couldn't cry herself, Sima Jun is the head of the family, and he has the most right to speak in the house, and the people in the family are also very convinced by him and feel that anything can be solved well as long as Sima Jun makes a move, but now that he has said such things, then this matter must be serious beyond his ability.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Sima cried even more fiercely.

"No, no, I must not let Qing'er have anything, that child is my life, if he really has three long and two short, then I won't live! Enter the palace, enter the palace to find Xian Guifei, Xian Guifei must have a way to save Qing'er, you go quickly, go and get the palace card and immediately send Mrs. Ben into the palace. Mrs. Sima staggered and stood up and said to the maid beside her.

The maid hurriedly answered and then withdrew.

Imperial Palace, inside Jingning Palace.

Concubine Xian also knew about the Sima family, and she sat on the bed with an anxious face.

"Why is that kid so ignorant, is that big smoke something he can touch? He wants to ruin the Sima family! ”

"Niangniang, Mrs. Sima is asking to see her outside the palace." The palace maid walked into the inner temple and reported.

Xian Guifei's eyebrows jumped. "What is she doing at this time?"

Su Ying brought ginseng tea to Concubine Xian. "Niangniang, Mrs. Sima is afraid that it is for the sake of Sima Ergongzi."

There was a faint anger between the eyebrows of the concubine. "If you don't see you, what's the use of coming to see this palace, can this palace help her fish people out?"

Su Ying said in a low voice: "Yes, the slave maid will let people talk back." ”

Su Ying was about to leave, but Concubine Xian opened her mouth again and stopped the person. "Forget it, let her in." The Sima family is her maiden family, if the Sima family arrives, Qin Yiyan will lose a big help.

"Yes."

Concubine Xian sat in the inner hall and listened to Madame Sima's sobs from a distance.

"Niangniang, Mrs. Sima has arrived."

"This palace knows, let her in."

"Yes."

As soon as Mrs. Sima entered the hall, she cried and fell down in front of Xian Guifei. "Niangniang, you must save Qing'er, that child is something you watched grow up, Niangniang must not bear to watch that child suffer in prison."

Concubine Xian seemed to understand a little bit why Emperor Kang Lin always had a helpless and forbearant expression when he saw her, crying was really annoying.

"There is no one else here, sister-in-law can get up and say anything if she has anything to say."

Concubine Xian glanced at Su Ying, and Su Ying closed the door of the palace casually when she retreated.

Madame Sima got up and sat down in her chair.

"Niangniang, you also know that Qing'er, this kid has been smart since he was a child, and he is honest, if he wasn't taken badly, how could he do such a thing."

What kind of elegant concubine Sima Qing is very clear in her heart, that is indeed a very smart child, so smart that she can remember all the content as long as she reads the book once, at that time, the child was praised by the emperor for a miraculous power, and the Sima family was happy, and they all felt that Sima Qing could make great achievements when he grew up, but who knew that the child's intelligence was useless on the right path!

Now that such a big disaster has happened, it is simply spoiled.

"What the hell is going on, have you figured it out?"

Mrs. Sima sobbed: "This, this matter is that someone framed Qing'er, he didn't know anything, and he also heard from others that there was something interesting in that place. ”

Concubine Xian was very unhappy when she saw that Mrs. Sima only knew how to cry, if Sima Qing was innocent, how could the emperor lose so much temper with Sima Jun.

The harem concubines can't interfere in politics, but it doesn't mean that they don't know anything.

"If you want to say that this thing should be done more secretly, who found out and arrested people? Which Praetorian Army? ”

Mrs. Sima was stunned for a moment, and then said excitedly: "It's King Heng, it's the forbidden army managed by King Heng to arrest people, Niangniang, you must make it clear to King Heng that Qing'er is wronged, it's his cousin's!" ”

Qin Yiyan.

Xian Guifei's heart jumped violently.

"This palace knows about this, sister-in-law, you go back first and wait, don't act rashly, this palace will let Yan'er enter the palace to ask clearly."

Mrs. Sima stepped forward and grabbed Concubine Xian. "Niangniang, you must save Qing'er."

"This palace knows, you can go back first." Xian Guifei waved her hand impatiently.

Mrs. Sima was a little annoyed, angry that her attitude was too contemptuous, when she had something to ask her mother's family before, when the government didn't help her, now she just asked her to save her son, she pushed back!

Although she was dissatisfied, Mrs. Sima didn't dare to show half a point, so she had to leave the palace honestly.

After Mrs. Sima left, Concubine Xian asked Su Ying to send a message to Qin Yiyan and asked him to enter the palace to see her immediately.

Qin Yiyan was very busy, and he didn't arrive until the afternoon.

"Erchen has seen his mother." After entering the hall, Qin Yiyan saluted respectfully, as if the previous dispute with Xian Guifei had never happened.

Xian Guifei glared at him angrily and said, "Your cousin's business, did you send someone to do it?!" ”

Qin Yiyan looked puzzled. "What do you mean by that?"

Xian Guifei looked at him. "Don't play stupid with Bengong here, Bengong is asking you if you made people do it when your cousin was arrested! Why are you so confused! What's in it for you to toss the Sima family? Do you even know what you're doing!? ”
