Chapter 206: Water Falls

This detail is tiny, and it is not easy to attract the attention of others, but Nan Rongwei Xiao is also a person who deals with powerful people from various countries all the year round, and he has handled countless discs, so he can naturally see at a glance that the traces of this vermilion stain should be like this after a long year.

On the other hand, no matter how great Chu Zikai's ability is, he will definitely not have the ability to predict the future, so it can be seen that this edict ordering someone to poison Yu Zhao really has nothing to do with him.

Looking at Yu Zhao again, although his mood was still a little uneasy, he leaned on Chu Zikai's arms and became quiet, obviously his doubts had disappeared, and Xu really understood the situation before he let down his guard.

Seeing this, Nan Rong Weixiao also believed that this edict was left by Emperor Yuan, and then thought about it sadly, and his worries were still not reduced by half.

"Your Majesty, there is something wrong with the minion's memory!" Suddenly, Feng Yun patted his brain, and eagerly replied: "Those poisoned meals prepared for the county lord, except for the people who tried the meals, you specially ordered the dishes with a sour taste to be removed, and all the palace maids in the procurement office were rewarded, and after such a long time, they didn't see any problems!" ”

In this way, it can be ascertained that the table with the medicine is in good condition before entering the tent. And the people who escorted the food all the way over are also trustworthy people, so the strange thing may not be in terms of food.

Yu Zhao was also thinking silently, and suddenly found that everyone's thoughts were diverted by the medicated meal, and ignored the most important person, the tea palace maid named Jiao Ju.

Touching the melon, Yu Zhao remembered that during the meal, Jiao Ju panicked and spilled the tea all over the table and stained the food, and became even more suspicious, eager to tell, and reached out to find Chu Zikai's hand.

Chu Zikai hurriedly handed her his hand and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Yu Zhao spread out his palm, and his fingers slid a word on itβ€”"Tea." ”

This word set the direction, Chu Zikai suddenly realized, secretly complained that he was anxious and dizzy and lost his mind, and immediately ordered: "The tea room will be sealed immediately, and the tea, water and utensils used will be intact and asked for verification. ”

"No need......" Before anyone could react to Chu Zikai's order, the curtain of the camp tent was opened, and he fixed his eyes to see who was coming, Chu Zikai was a little surprised at first, and then felt reasonable.

It turned out to be Feng An, the former imperial chamberlain, who slowly entered with his old and thin body, looking lonely. "Don't bother Your Majesty, this matter is the old slave acting on the will of the first emperor, there is no fault, the holy decree was conveyed by the old slave to the palace maid, and she was also killed by the old slave, you think it is a crime, all the crimes The old slave admits to it, and it is not someone else's business."

As the saying goes, once the son of heaven and a courtier, Emperor Yuan hurried west, and died so undignified, but he still remembered that his imperial order could not be violated, fortunately, he was still honest and kind during his lifetime, and left some minions willing to throw away his life in order to be loyal to him.

The Feng An in front of him was an example, as if he had made up his mind not to want his own life, Feng An was also calm, kneeling down and looking at Chu Zikai and Yu Zhao, and sighed meaningfully.

"The first emperor ordered the old slave to abide by the order and go into hiding, that is, he expected that there would be this day, His Majesty has the demeanor of a Ming monarch since he was a teenager, and he does not want to be blinded by love one day. He knows that you are ruthless, so he did this for you, the old slave has the will of the emperor at this moment, and it can be regarded as accumulating virtue for you, and please give the slave a whole corpse with mercy! ”

If Feng An alone will take all the blame, there is indeed no better explanation for this matter, since the death of Emperor Yuan, although he has been relegated to the rear to do an idle job of managing utensils, in the end, he is also a person who has stayed in front of the emperor for a lifetime, can hold the secret edict of Emperor Yuan, and has enough qualifications to make the palace maid who serves tea believe that the holy decree was issued by Chu Zikai, looking at the palace, Feng An can also be regarded as a person who has this ability.

"Why is that?" Chu Zikai's palms clenched into fists, guilt and entanglement intertwined, in front of Nanrong Wei Xiao, Yu Zhao was wronged like this, and at this moment he found out that it was his father's posthumous work, I really didn't know how to explain it, and forced Feng Andao: "I have already ascended to a high position to take over the country as my father wanted, why does he still have to leave edicts and make frequent difficulties?" Is there anyone else besides you? ”

Feng Yun didn't answer the latter question, but said: "Your Majesty forgot, it was you who didn't respect the will of the first emperor, and before he died, you clearly promised him that you would know what to do is the right choice." Now he is still violating his last wishes, disturbing the world and turmoil. Moreover, before the county lord of Hening left, he also said that he would not set foot in the territory of Great Chu for half a step, and now that you have both broken your promises, you should naturally be punished. ”

"I don't want her to come back!" Defending Yu Zhao has always been instinctive, and Chu Zikai frankly took full responsibility for Feng An's remarks: "Since you want to hold your father accountable, you must also recognize right and wrong, she is innocent." ”

"The old slave can't recognize the rights and wrongs of this matter, but the old slave knows that even if the county lord returns even if you force it, he is not innocent." After Feng An replied, he shook his head and said sarcastically: "The etiquette law cannot be abolished, the concubine of the year is a disguise, and it is also a sacrifice to the heavens and the gods according to the number of rituals, Your Majesty has affection for her, and the charge of indecent cannot escape, it is she who made your dignified son of heaven bear this unbearable charge, so she should be guilty, the first emperor was merciful, and it was extra generous to leave her alive." ”

Chu Zikai snorted coldly. "My father is full of benevolence, righteousness and morality, but he never follows the golden mean, he only knows how to bully her for weakness, and never remembers the merits she has made, and the infamy she bears for Da Chu for no reason."

Feng An shook his head and persuaded: "The first emperor has closed his eyes for a long time and is still helping you, you shouldn't blame him anymore." ”

"Why did the servant say that?" Nan Rongwei Xiao, who had been standing quietly and watching for a long time, asked first.

"It's still Lord Nanrong who has been in the world for many years, and if you don't rush to ask the old slave about his sins, I'm afraid that he has already realized a little bit of the hard work of the first emperor."

Feng Yun respectfully looked at the south Rongwei Xiao and greeted: "Although the first emperor and you have never met, because of the relationship between General Zhenguo, he has no intention of letting him have a little friendship with you. ”

Nan Rongwei replied: "The old man has never dared to forget the life-saving grace, but this kindness does not have to be repaid by the old man's descendants!" ”

Looking at it like this, between Nan Rong Wei Xiao and Emperor Yuan, I really want to have the past, Chu Zikai and Yu Zhao were both puzzled, and they wanted to ask, but they heard Feng Yun interrupt: "The first emperor originally said that this kindness is nothing, and now that he is gone, the old slave has the courage to be the master, and it is against this matter, and I also ask Lord Nanrong not to pursue it, and fulfill the affection between His Majesty and the county lord." ”
