Chapter Fifty-Nine: The East Leaves the Details
Duanmu Qing picked up the fragments on the ground, gently pulled out the contents of the contents, and unfolded them to reveal two square shark handkerchiefs, and the embroidered in the handkerchiefs was the pattern of the White Flame Sect.
Duanmu smiled slightly and looked at Mother Wan, "Whether I know if there is something in here or not, whether I know what is in it, the bracelet is broken and it can't be put back again, I really don't know how Mother Wan would know that there is this thing in my house?" Could it be that ten thousand mothers can't see through the eyes? ”
Li Ningshuang and the ladies of the Qi State Mansion changed color at that time, and even the queen couldn't help but change color slightly.
In this way, it is not simply a matter of false accusations by Mother Wan, but obviously it also involves Mrs. Li of the Duke of Qi.
The queen's mind spun quickly, no matter what, it is best to make a big thing a small one, how to pull this matter out of the riot and attribute it to the grievances between women is the most important.
Duanmu Qing didn't give her this opportunity, and then said: "Your Majesty, this matter is not just as simple as slandering the courtiers. ”
At this time, the emperor's vision of the girl in front of him has changed too much, not everyone can observe what is happening around them to such an extent, and not everyone has such "luck" as her.
If it weren't for the suspicion of this jade bracelet from the beginning, if it hadn't been "justly" brought over today, I'm afraid that she would have died a miserable death today.
And this woman behaves unhurried or impatient at any time, which is really not an easy thing to do at her age.
"What do you mean......"
"Your Majesty, the riots at the Lantern Festival were not caused by the White Flame Sect."
The voice was not loud, but it shocked everyone present.
At this moment, the faces of the second prince and the queen became a little pale, but they barely maintained their composure.
"Miss Duanmu, you can eat indiscriminately, you can't talk nonsense, if there is no evidence, I advise you not to talk nonsense." Squinting his already small eyes slightly, Zhao Yuxing's eyes flashed with a dangerous light.
In the face of such a threat, Duanmu Qing smiled at him, "I think the person who understands this truth is more needed, and it should be the second prince." ”
The second prince, who had always been silent in the court, suddenly said such a thing, which made the emperor more and more suspicious, and as far as his understanding of Duanmu Qing was concerned, she would definitely not be untargeted.
For a while, the expression on the face of the Son of Heaven became very solemn, and his eyes looked at Duanmu Qing with a little depression, "What do you mean by this?" ”
Duanmu Qing bowed without humility or arrogance, "Please atone for your sins, because the matter is very important, the courtiers thought twice before they planned to see Your Majesty today at this private banquet and secretly explain to Your Majesty, but now that things have developed to this point, the courtiers have to say, please see two people." ”
"Who? Where is it? ”
"Back to Your Majesty, the person is already at the gate of the palace at this time, and he is led by the second brother of the courtier."
"Xuan!"
At this time, everyone present could see the seriousness of the matter, and the emperor's words did not fall for too long, and Duanmu Hebian hurried over with a man and a woman.
After taking the two of them to salute, the emperor frowned and asked, "Who are you two?" What does it have to do with the Lantern Festival riots? ”
The two raised their heads, and when the emperor saw the woman's face, his expression changed greatly, "You are ......"
"Back to Your Majesty's words, Luo Qi, the daughter of the guilty minister, knocks on my emperor."
"You are the granddaughter of Luo Guogong!"
Concubine De had been friends with the young lady of the Luo Guogong family when she was young, and when she heard the girl say this, she looked at her face similar to that of the Duchess of Guo, and couldn't help but lose her voice.
The emperor was also shocked, and he couldn't imagine that there was still someone in the Luoguo Mansion that he had ordered to be beheaded at that time.
"Back to Your Majesty, the grass people were originally a general soldier under the Duke of Luo, and they also followed the grandfather of the country to see His Majesty's holy face, but His Majesty is the body of the Son of Heaven, so he must not be able to remember the grass people."
For a while, the emperor didn't know what to say, about the case of Luo Guogong, at that time, it was indeed just a seizure of power by himself, but in recent years, the forces of the DPRK and China have begun to stand in line and support their respective princes.
In fact, there are not many people in the entire court who are following him with all their hearts, thinking about the reason, it is inevitably not related to the strong attitude towards Luo Guogong at that time, and when he saw Luo Qifang at this time, he was not sure what to do with him, so he did not convict her immediately.
"What does this riot case have to do with it?"
Han Lingyan seemed to be a little bored from eating, so he joined the topic, chewing a piece of pear meat in his mouth.
Duanmu Qing didn't look at him, but looked at the emperor seriously.
"Back to Your Majesty, in fact, this matter was originally planned by the chief soldier."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar.
Even the emperor was full of shock, looked at the two people kneeling on the ground, and then looked at Duanmu Qing.
Not afraid of the emperor's sight, Duanmu Qing continued: "Because of an accident, the courtiers saved the two sisters and brothers of Miss Luo, and later after the Lantern Festival riots, an accident found that this matter was related to her.
At that time, Miss Luo was also full of worries, because she never knew that the chief soldier would lead people to do such a bloody and brutal thing, and only then did she tell me everything under the repeated questioning of the courtiers.
But the general soldier followed Luo Guogong everywhere to fight, and he had long had a deep feeling, and he always thought that Luo Guogong had been wronged in what happened back then, and finally found evidence, but because of many years, there was no way to see His Majesty.
So he decided to use the chaotic way of the Lantern Festival to meet His Majesty, who knew that it would evolve like that. When the courtiers heard it, they felt that something was wrong, and begged her brother to go with us to the Luoxia Mountain that Miss Luo said. ”
The emperor looked at Luo Qibian and Duanmu Qing with an uncertain expression, and then moved his stern gaze to Dan Zongbing, which was quite inquisitive. In the end, he didn't say anything, but asked about Duanmuhe.
"Back to Your Majesty, the minister took hundreds of brothers to wipe out those people, but obviously these people are not reckless, most of them committed suicide by poisoning when they were caught, and only a few were captured alive by those who did not have time to be unloaded by our chins."
Taking poison without hesitation is naturally not a group of people in the rivers and lakes who work hard for profit, but obviously very organized and disciplined special training personnel.
"Bring people in."
The empress, who has followed the emperor for many years, was already beating the drum in her heart at this time, and she knew best that the calmer the emperor's voice at this time, the more angry she was in her heart, and the consequences of his anger, I was afraid that no one in Xiqi could bear it.
When the person was brought up, Duanmu Qing obviously felt a burning gaze on his body, but when he turned his face, he saw Han Ling's expression that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.
Duanmu Qing didn't care, things have come here, and naturally there is no room for regression.
Some of the people who were brought up had wooden faces, and even if they knelt on the ground, their backs were straight, and their bodies were stiff, like dead people, lifeless.
But the other group of people were already trembling, kneeling on the ground, their faces almost touching the ground.
Such a group of people were brought up, and there was a rather clear feeling, as if they were not the same organization, but two groups of people who had barely come together.
"Back to the emperor, because it is related to the safety of the country at this time, and the courtiers are good friends with Miss Luo, they are afraid that there will be any mistakes and omissions, but they will startle the snake, so they let some friends on the rivers and lakes secretly inquire, and some of the things they inquired about made the courtiers very puzzled.
It's just that at this time, it was already able to determine that they were the ones who caused the Lantern Festival, so they brought people over, and His Majesty is well-informed, so he naturally sees more far-reaching than us. ”
The emperor looked at the people below, and when he heard Duanmu Qing say this, he knew that there must be something inside, "You say." ”
"After our friends' inquiry, there are indeed some of them who are reckless people in the rivers and lakes, and what they do is just to do things with money, but there are still some people who don't seem to be from our Xiqi."
"Oh?" The Emperor's gaze naturally fell on the stiff-looking men, their eyes full of inquiry.
"Bring the pepper water." He coldly commanded, and immediately someone from the palace brought up the pepper water, and the emperor ordered someone to pour the pepper water into everyone below to drink.
Xiqi and Dongli originally belonged to the same country, but then slowly became two.
There is no difference between the two countries in terms of appearance and physical signs, but the customs of the two sides are slightly different, the biggest difference is that the Xiqi people are good at eating spicy food, but the Dongli people like to be light.
Sure enough, after a while, some unbearable expressions began to appear on the faces of those who looked blank, as if they were enduring some kind of punishment.
On the contrary, the group of people who were originally kneeling on the ground and cowering showed a blank look, as if they did not know what the emperor was doing.
Han Lingyan had also stood up at this time, frowned and walked quickly in front of those Dongli people, and roared, "Who sent you?" Why did you come to Xiqi to make trouble? ”
Obviously, if this group of people is Dongli's meticulous work and breaks the peace between the two countries, the first person to bear the brunt is Han Lingxi, who is a proton, so this group of people comes without scruples, either he has become Dongli's outcast, or someone wants to kill him.
It's just that since this group of people has chosen the path of becoming benevolent if they don't succeed, they naturally would rather die than say it.
"Who the hell is it?" Han Lingyan looked furious.
Directly grabbed a person's shoulder, shook it and said, "Is something wrong with my father?" Who the hell sent you? ”
Hearing his words, the emperor's gaze at Han Lingyan was a little more incomprehensible.
Han Lingyan didn't seem to see the emperor's expression, and began to punch and kick the man, "Say!" What the hell is going on. ”
