Someone happened to see the concubine Niangniang holding her towering hair in a bun, wrapped in a black robe and walking through the palace road next to the court bureau with an expressionless face, and they all gave this concubine a new definition in their hearts.

She stood by His Majesty's side and stood at the highest point of Daming Palace, not only because she was the daughter of the Guo family, nor just because her mother was Princess Shengping.

A poisoning storm in Zichen Hall miraculously ended under the hellish trial of the concubine Niangniang and the subsequent strict sealing.

Soon, when this matter was gradually thrown into the corner of memory by the palace people who were good at forgetting, those innocent Zichen Palace palace people were banished from the palace. In the palace, they couldn't stay anymore, but the concubine Niangniang showed mercy and gave them a way to live.

A few days later, Li Chun, who was flipping through the folds of the ministers, suddenly picked out a copy from the big stack of folds, opened it and read it for a moment, then turned his head and asked Liufu: "I seem to be busy lately, my memory is getting worse and worse, have I ever summoned the Qinzhou Taishou back to Beijing to report on his work?" ”

Liufu bent down in front of him and said respectfully: "Your Majesty is not mistaken, you have not summoned him." ”

Li Chun's brows gradually tightened. This Liu Shu, what does he mean by suddenly returning to Beijing without a call at this time?

Liufu lowered his head and thought about it again, and replied cautiously: "Your Majesty, the slave remembers that a few days ago, the noble concubine seemed to have mentioned that Qinzhou Taishou ......"

Li Chun thought about it carefully, as if there was such a thing, so he ordered: "Since this is the case, there must be something." Summoning him into the palace, and calling the concubine to listen to it together. ”

Liu Shu was already waiting outside Danfeng Gate at this time, and he didn't even have time to change into a clean official uniform, which looked dusty. Hearing His Majesty's summons, he hurriedly followed behind the father-in-law who delivered the decree and walked towards the Zichen Palace.

His decision to enter Beijing to face the saint was extremely difficult, and even very uneasy, because his wife went to the temple a few days ago to offer incense, and met a scholar named Luo Lingze on the way.

The Xiangshi seemed to be very godly, and he calculated his wife's origin at a glance, and said that she had a luxurious face and should have the destiny of a lady. The woman was moved for a moment, so she brought the priest back and asked him to show him his face.

After seeing that Luo Xiangshi, Luo Xiangshi said many secrets in the palace, saying that His Majesty's throne was not coming in the right way, and instigated him to use 50,000 soldiers and horses from Qinzhou to raise troops to counterattack Chang'an, abolish the Son of Heaven, and re-establish the Emperor Taishang to return to Daming Palace to govern.

The Xiangshi compared himself to Zhuge Kongming, shaking a feather fan in a similar way, and said that after the time was completed, he would be able to worship the prime minister and dominate the world.

His wife was fascinated by the rhetoric of the Xiangshi, and regarded the Luo Xiangshi as a god who descended to earth, and also helped persuade him to raise troops, but Liu Shu, as a party guard, was not a brainless. When I think about it, I come up with a lot of loopholes.

It is not surprising that Na Luo Xiangshi told his wife's origin as soon as they met, I am afraid that it may not have been calculated, but that he had been prepared for it and deliberately used this to get close to him.

After the death of the first emperor, although it is justifiable for the emperor to ascend the throne, everyone knows that in the end, it is the credit of His Majesty.

In recent years, the Emperor Taishang's body and bones are not good, and he couldn't even get up when the first emperor died, although the matter of Bai Ma's internal life was troubled, and people with a discerning eye knew that His Majesty's throne was forced to give up to the Emperor, but in the end, people outside only knew that the Emperor Taishang was the dragon who took the initiative to take the throne, and His Majesty was not unjustifiable.

Regardless of whether the Emperor Taishang is considered a Ming Jun or not, or whether his skills are strong enough, if he raises troops in the name of the Emperor Taishang, the reason is not very sufficient, and it is a bit far-fetched.

This majesty is not easy to deal with, just with the 50,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, he may not have much chance of winning against the guards and the Shence army in Chang'an City, in case there are other local forces ordered to conquer, his situation will be embarrassing.

Besides, even if it comes to fruition in the end, this Luo Ling is a man in white, how much can he make a promise to achieve?

When you think about it, it's not worth it.

He couldn't make up his mind for a while, so he first kept Na Luo Xiangshi at home with good wine and food, stabilized him first, and then slowly figured it out.

But within two days, he sensed that something was wrong. According to the subordinate report of the house, there are always some people who seem to be staring at the Taishou Mansion recently, and those people look like they are from Beijing.

When Liu Shu heard this, he was immediately frightened into a cold sweat, and secretly congratulated himself that he had thought about it so much and didn't make a rash move. If Na Luo Ling had already attracted attention in the capital, His Majesty would have been ready for it, as long as he made a move, I am afraid that he would have to be in a different place before he left Qinzhou!

Liu Shu immediately made a decision, immediately tied up Luo Lingze, personally escorted him into Beijing, and pleaded guilty to His Majesty in the name of returning to Beijing to report on his work.

When Liu Shu walked into the Zichen Palace, the concubine was already in the side hall, and when she heard the little eunuch's message, she turned around and went behind the screen.

Li Chun first asked a few words according to the practice of Taishou returning to Beijing to report on his work, and after Liu Shu answered them one by one, Li Chun ordered someone to give him a seat, and then asked: "What is the matter that Qing Da came from Qinzhou all the way to see me?" ”

Liu Xin's buttocks had just touched his seat, and he was so shocked by this sentence that he hurriedly fell to the ground again, and knocked his head several times before saying: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister has the courage to take a traitor who fled to Qinzhou and personally escort him to Beijing." ”

Li Chun glanced at him deeply, and seemed to smile: "Traitor? Let's listen to it, how is it a reversal? ”

Liu Shu suddenly felt a cold sweat, hearing this, His Majesty really already knew, but it was a pity that he didn't listen to the nonsense of the Xiangshi who didn't know whether he was alive or dead!

But he didn't arrest the scholar in the first place, and he didn't know if His Majesty would be suspicious of him because of this......

He couldn't help but kowtow a few more times, and turned his words in his heart a few more times before he thought about it: "That traitor...... The traitor is ill-intentioned, nonsense, and wants to ...... If you want to blackmail the emperor to rebel, the minister ...... The minister was terrified......"

Li Chun didn't tell him to get up, picked up the teacup and seemed to be tasting tea slowly, his eyes looked at him for a while, and when he finished drinking a cup of tea, he saw the beads of sweat dripping down Liu Shu's forehead, so he put down the teacup slowly and asked, "Where is the traitor now?" ”

His voice was not loud, but it was quiet for too long at this time, and this sudden sound sounded like thunder on the ground to Liu Shu's ears, and he trembled in fright, and then replied: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister is afraid of change, so he specially brought it over today, just outside the Danfeng Gate, hidden in the minister's carriage." ”

Liu Shu, the old fox, is cunning. said that he was a traitor, but he didn't necessarily know in his heart that someone in Beijing was really instigating. In the case of not knowing who the main envoy behind it was, he was not even at ease in his own house, so he simply handed it over to the emperor as soon as he brought it, so as not to cause other troubles.

The next horse was also given, even if it had been beaten, Li Chun did not intend to embarrass Liu Shu today. Although he may not have had the idea of rebellion in his heart, in the end, he still escorted Na Luo Lingze and came to surrender.

Although it is not impossible to deal with Liu Shulai, at this juncture, there is no need to worry about this matter, not to mention that there are still many local forces who are watching, and at this time, it is still mainly to appease.

Li Chun's tone softened a lot, and said: "That's the case, and bring people in, first lock them up in the court bureau, and watch people look at it, Liu Aiqing has worked hard all the way." While turning to Liufu, "I remember that the bird's nest paste made in the palace is very good for calming the nerves and recuperating the body, Liufu, send someone to send a jar to Liu Aiqing." ”

When Liu Shu heard this, he asked him to go back first, and for a while, as if he had been amnestied, he kowtowed a few times in a row: "The minister bowed to thank the emperor, and then he retired." ”

After Liu Shu left, Nian Yun came out from behind the screen, and Li Chun said: "People are locked up in the Yeting Palace first, you try to interrogate secretly, and then send it to the Criminal Department after the trial, watch it tightly." ”

This is an important human witness, if he is lucky, if he really has that white hemp inner life on his body, it is also physical evidence.

Many people in the DPRK and China knew about Liu Shu's return to Beijing to report on his work, and some people would definitely see him when he was waiting outside the Danfeng Gate, and this could not be hidden.

Therefore, the Xingqing Palace must have received the news that it had not been done, and Luo Ling must have been an outcast at this time, and they are likely to try to destroy the evidence.

Because of the previous poisoning, she already had the bottom in her heart, and understood that what Li Chun said was that she couldn't let the people from Xingqing Palace interfere, and she couldn't let him die.

When the person was secretly mentioned to the court bureau, Nian Yundang went to the court in person, preparing for a surprise arraignment.

But as soon as Na Luo Lingze was brought up, he saw that he was dazed, and he couldn't say half a complete sentence when he asked three sentences, the corners of his mouth were crooked, and the drooling fell on his chest, and he couldn't even stand steadily.

Nian Yun was shocked, and hurriedly ordered the imperial doctor to come and take a look.

After looking at it, the imperial doctor said that he had taken some drugs to make people sleepy, and there was no major problem, but it would take seven or eight hours to slowly wake up.

Nian Yun put his mind at ease, guessing that Liu Shu should have done this to save trouble along the way, which could not only prevent him from escaping, but also not make a disturbance to attract attention.

Nian Yun ordered people to be strictly guarded first, and ordered to report as soon as he woke up.

This Luo Ling is just a white-clothed scholar, and it should not be more difficult to interrogate than those well-informed palace people. But she had to hurry up and get the information she wanted from the prisoner as quickly as possible.

After all, it is not in accordance with the rules for the rebels outside to be detained in the palace bureau, if the foreign minister knows, she must send the prisoner to the criminal department, and the prison of the criminal department is relatively much more complicated, and it is not known what will happen when the time comes.

Xue Chu'er found out the clue about this matter, and the bad thing about Luo Lingze was a good friend in Pingkangli, and now that woman may also be a good breakthrough.

Nianyun went out of the court bureau, and then ordered: "Summoning Guo Yuma and Mrs. Xue from Chengnanzhuang to come to Penglai Hall quickly, there is something important in the palace to see them." ”
