Chapter 153: The Poor Fate
"The queen mother investigates herself?" Zhang Yuge blinked, still a little incredulous for a moment, and after seeing Su Jiao nodding seriously, she withdrew her gaze and said no more.
On the other side, in the Fengqi Palace, the queen mother sat at the top of the position dignified and elegant, but her face was very gloomy, and below her knelt was the guard who was running outside to transport the scriptures.
The guard trembled, he had heard about Zhang Yuge's almost slippery tire before he came, and he found himself for some reason, which scared him into a cold sweat layer by layer.
"Raise your head, this palace called you over today to ask some things clearly, not to specifically punish your crimes, but if you dare to hide anything, this palace will never spare you."
The cuckoo came over with a cup of tea, but as soon as the queen raised her hand but did not intend to drink it, the cuckoo went down with the tea again, and the underground guards who had opened her mouth at first glance trembled violently, and kowtowed to the ground again and again.
"The queen mother knows that everything the slave says is true, and she will never dare to deceive half a sentence."
"So, this palace asks you, where did you get these scriptures from, but after Su Lian finished copying them, he personally entrusted them to you?" The queen half-lowered her eyes, and just mentioning Su Lian's name sounded like a bit of gnashing of teeth.
The guards reflected for a long time before they understood who she was talking about, but they suddenly hesitated and didn't dare to speak. When the queen saw him like this, she was afraid that she had guessed something, so she deliberately slapped her hand on the handrail and scolded loudly.
"If you don't dare to say it, then Su Lian deliberately added these messy things to the scriptures, thinking of poisoning the third princess, isn't it?"
"The queen forgives her sins, this matter is not Aunt Su's business, these scriptures are ordered by His Royal Highness, let the nuns in the temple copy them for her aunt, and the aunt has not been in contact, and the servants really don't know why there is musk ash on it."
Otherwise, the person who is caught in the middle is the most uncomfortable, one is the queen, the other is Xu Rulie, this guard will be punished no matter what.
"Bengong knows that he is really a good son of Bengong." The expected answer made the queen's hatred even more angry, and she turned her head to look at the magpie, and the magpie had to comfort her softly.
After all, although the was sent over, it was just a slave, and it couldn't control Xu Rulie's own wishes.
Even so, this matter must have nothing to do with her. Furthermore, I heard that you spilled these scriptures during the journey, did you meet anyone during this time? ”
The queen took a deep breath and barely calmed herself down, and the guards below listened, their eyes rolling for a long time, "This, the person who Hanu Caixiang hit was running fast on a horse, and the slave really didn't see who it was?" ”
As soon as these words came out, seeing that the queen's eyes above gradually narrowed, the guard's heart was cold, and he hurried to continue. "Oh, yes, the slave remembered, when he got off the horse and picked up the scriptures, there was a person who helped, this person looked about middle-aged, but his body did not look like my people, but it looked like he came from the Japanese country, and the style of dressing was also similar."
"It's a Japanese country again, how dare a Japanese thief!" For the assassination encountered on the way back from the banquet and the trip some time ago, the queen's impression of the Wa Kingdom was extremely poor.
If it weren't for the etiquette of diplomacy, the queen would almost want to send someone directly to the Dianke residence to arrest people.
"I'm still restless under house arrest, and I still want to do these little actions secretly, Your Majesty shouldn't have believed their nonsense, it's better to send it early, I'm not afraid that I can't afford to fight, sooner or later they will surrender, why bother so much."
The queen gritted her teeth, although the woman's opinion was not comprehensive enough, but it did make people feel very happy to speak like this. After speaking, she got up directly and went to the upper study to complain to the emperor.
The guard knelt underneath, hesitant, not knowing where to go, but it was the cuckoo who reminded him to step back that he knew to leave.
At the same time, there is bound to be eyeliner everywhere. Because the emperor had a lot of scruples, he didn't listen to the queen's words and directly disposed of the envoys, but now it is almost a critical moment of survival, and the emperor will have a seizure at the last straw.
Yunosuke in the pawn house didn't know where the news came from, and when he heard that the queen had sued him, he couldn't sit still in fear, and walked back and forth in the hall with his hands tight.
Inoue River was also very worried, but seeing that he was much calmer than him, he thought for a while and walked to Yunosuke's side to help come up with ideas.
"My lord, if we don't go talk to that Lord Xiao, he seems to have some face in front of His Majesty Emperor Daze, let him help find out the truth, we will definitely be fine."
"Will this work?" Yunosuke furrowed his brows, in fact, he was more concerned about whether Xiao Huai'an could believe his words, "Even so, we can't get out." ”
"Don't worry, my lord, I think that Lord Xiao is still clear-headed, let's go talk to him, he will definitely believe a little, and he will not completely deny it, as for going out, it's simpler, come with me."
Inoue River's face was mysterious, and in the brightest lobby, Oki Yunosuke, who was still a little pretended, beckoned. Yunosuke pouted helplessly, and followed him to the backyard, only to find that there was actually a small door open here.
"It took a lot of effort for the lower officials to finally buy off the people of Diankeju and let them leave a small door today, my lord, let's go quickly, go early and return early, so as not to be discovered."
"Okay." Yunosuke was a little dumbfounded when he heard this, and he didn't have time to guess how Inoue River bought the person, so he hurriedly got into the carriage prepared in the coat alley with him, and drove to the Xiao Mansion.
At this time, the Xiao Mansion had just finished eating, and Su Jiao was pestering Xiao Huai'an to ask what to eat for supper tonight, Yunosuke and Inoue River ignored the obstruction of the porter, and rushed in in a hurry, scared that Su Jiao was not scared, and they were indeed giving thunder.
These two good people are also representatives who have come to envoy on behalf of a country, and this posture is really unsightly.
The corners of Su Jiao's mouth twitched, and she gently pulled down Xiao Huai'an's hand in front of her, and before she could speak, the two people opposite began to quarrel and quarrel.
"Lord Xiao, help, we really didn't do the assassination of the three princesses, we are all under house arrest, where do we have such a great ability."
Yunosuke and Inoue River cried in unison to see him, as if they had seen a life-saving straw, Su Jiao still tried hard to judge, and barely heard it, it should be like this.
Su Jiao pursed the corners of her mouth helplessly, but when she thought of the sins suffered by Zhang Yuge today, she didn't have much affection for these two people, and Xiao Huai'an also heard about the events during the day, but she didn't feel that it had much to do with the envoys.
"It's inconvenient to talk here, so the two adults should go to the study with the official to discuss first, and then order someone to send you back quietly in a while." Xiao Huaian raised his hand and quieted down the two opposite. Su Jiao glanced at him, and saw that his mind was firm, so she casually spread her hands.
"I'm going to prepare the white fungus soup." From bird's nest to white fungus, the price has dropped.
"The two adults might as well carefully explain what the situation is today, if it weren't for your instructions, how could this ordinary person have the courage to attack the things of the three princesses."
In the study, Xiao Huai'an deliberately spoke in such a weird manner, mainly to deceive their true words. Before Inoue River could speak, Yunosuke quarreled in advance.
"Lord Xiao's words are really wronging us, our country believes in a concept of the following, in fact, we don't hide it from Lord Xiao, we only came here this time to represent the meaning of His Majesty the Emperor and the Prime Minister of our country, and the group of people below, they actually don't advocate letting us come over to make peace."
"There are many people below, although they are not as powerful as those who are officials in the court, but it is not impossible for them to make some small moves in private." As he spoke, Inoue River also took over the conversation and helped to supplement.
Yunosuke nodded, "And not only that, in fact, His Majesty the Emperor of our country does not agree very much. ”
In fact, Xiao Huai'an guessed that the national conditions of the Japanese State were not very stable early in the morning, but it was only regarded as a problem between the emperor and the ministers, but he didn't expect that even ordinary people would want to intervene.
"So, how did you get here? Those people are also on the orders of your Majesty? ”
"Don't tell you that my father is in a high position in the court, and he responds to every call, and the ministers have written one after another, and Your Majesty has to agree, but those people don't follow Your Majesty, they seem to have their own leaders and want to establish themselves as kings."
Yunosuke spoke too sincerely, so that Inoue River beside him heard a slight change in his face, Xiao Huaian couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly.
In the past two years, the relationship between Daze and the Wa Kingdom has been rigid, but there are still many Wa people who have moved to the capital, thinking that it is the intention of the emperor of their country, but it turned out to be a spontaneous organization of the people, and they all want to invade Daze?
It's just wishful thinking.
"I understand." After Xiao Huai'an thought about it, he clasped his elbows and looked at the two people in front of him, "So you want to tell this official about today's matter, it is very likely that the people around your emperor, or the people who rebelled, want to destroy the two of us federation." So you, the prime minister, are the only ones who are willing to get along amicably with our DPRK? ”
"Lord Xiao is worthy of Lord Xiao, as long as you say a little, you can understand it." Yunosuke smiled honestly, and asked Su Jiao, who was listening secretly outside the door, to feel a little stunned and disgusted.
"So please ask Lord Xiao to save your life, when the five princes came to persuade us, we agreed in good faith that we wanted to coexist peacefully, but we must not let those villains delay our plans."
