The eunuch's news passed through the main hall to His Royal Highness, and Yao Wenyong, who had been waiting there for a long time, was stabbed by the shrill voice and his knees softened.

Looking up at the hundred-step white marble stairs all the way up as if into the clouds, the golden palace is majestic and brilliant in the blue sky.

This is the sacred place he has been thinking about for a long time, and he has measured the gold bricks of Jingren Palace in countless dreams, and now he finally has the opportunity to see the royal face, but his heart is full of trembling after bursts.

How did things get to this point, he was still in a trance.

On the day of Wuhai, His Royal Highness told him to get out and let him save his wife by himself, he didn't dare, seeing that his wife did not enter the crimson sea, and then he was in a state of confusion, and was picked up on the ship of the court in the wind and rain, and returned to Zhangxian County, I wanted to confuse this matter, who knew that the matter of Wuhai caused an uproar in the court, and the old man knew that he also took his wife to go, and repeatedly wrote to ask about his safety. In desperation, he had to tell his uncle, of course he didn't dare to say what happened at that time, only that Yan Sui refused to save the Lin family's death. The uncle was furious, and just as his term of office in Zhangxian County had expired, his uncle ordered him to return to Beijing to report on his work, and by the way, he would also go to Beijing to take up his new post.

After going to Beijing, I learned that my uncle intended to impeach Yan Sui and asked him to testify, so as to make a good impression in front of the bigwigs and find a suitable position.

How dare Yao Wenyong face Yan Sui, he refused, seeing that his uncle was dissatisfied, and the old man learned that he was in Beijing and came to inquire, so he had to tell the story that the Lin family was dead, in this case, he could only put the responsibility on Yan Sui Wenzhen.

Lin Yu is a scholar, only this young girl in the family, when he heard the bad news, he immediately pulled him to go to the palace to knock on King Yi, Yao Wenyong had no way to retreat at this time, and he had to stand here today.

At this moment, when I heard the summons as if it was coming from the sky, looking up at the dazzling sunlight in the high places, I couldn't help but make up my mind when I was awe-inspiring in my heart - since I had been cornered, I could only fight to the death.

Anyway, there is no witness to what happened that day, and no one knows why Lin died.

When he entered the hall, he didn't dare to look more, so he followed the instructions of Taiwei Yao, prostrated himself at the foot of the steps, and told the events of the day again. Of course, in this version, naturally he and his wife are just innocent guests. This person is a rare reading seed of the Yao family, and his eloquence is very good, and when the ship was broken, the sky and the earth were shattered, the wailing of all beings, the adventures at sea, and the infestation of dark sharks, rendered in thrilling twists and turns, which was breathtaking, and even Wen Zhen listened to it, and felt that just from his description, this move was really perverse, anti-social and anti-human typical behavior.

Yao Wenyong had deduced it many times before, and felt that there was no problem with this statement, and after finishing speaking, his heart was also settled, so he held back his tears and kowtowed, and did not say a word.

If he cries and shouts to ask the emperor and empress to redress his grievances, he is easy to be attacked when the occasion is not right; Second, the forbearance at the moment is more impressive. Therefore, many courtiers showed sympathy, but no one dared to speak for a while.

Yan Jue suddenly smiled and said, "Third brother, this thing is not very authentic." Also, Master Wen, you are ashamed to be a minister in all your actions in this matter! ”

As soon as these words came out, someone answered: "Indeed." Master Wen, you should have an explanation for this matter. ”

Suddenly, there were a group of courtiers who echoed - except for those who had obvious positions, the main force to impeach Yan Sui was mostly Yu Shi, after all, this was the duty of Yu Shi, and Yu Shi heard about it, impeachment was not guilty, and it was the crowd that was relatively least afraid of Yan Sui.

The imperial historians know that Yan Sui is difficult to bite, on the contrary, Wen Zhen is a good breakthrough, I heard that this Lord Wen and His Royal Highness King Yi are quite unclear, and now they are just asking to understand. Otherwise, a person who was born as a cook and is a woman, although he has made a slight contribution to the imperial court, but in such a short period of time, he will be promoted again and again, and he will be promoted to the chief of the department, which is really a bit unusual.

The good name of the imperial history, I don't care who is favored and who is powerful, the more this kind of role, the more I will be able to live for centuries after gnawing it, so I jumped out quickly, and I forgot that this is the queen's birthday.

"I heard that the people of Jianzhou were invited by Lord Wen to board the ship, what is Lord Wen's explanation for this?"

"On the day of the collision, the people were displaced from the sea, what was Lord Wen doing at that time?"

"Lord Wen and Lord Yao are ministers in the same hall, and they are both women with the Lin family, I never thought that they would be so ruthless and let the Lin family die in the sea. With such a heart, how can you serve in the court? ”

"Yes, extremely. coercing the people in front, not thinking about saving behind. Such a crime should be investigated! ”

Jingren Palace was noisy into a vegetable market again, full of disdainful words and angry eyes, Lin Feibai wanted to come out several times, but was stopped by Wen Zhen, and it was not until their self-congratulatory topic entered the procedure of discussing how to deal with her that she took a step forward.

This step made everyone automatically stop.

Shan Sikong and Li Xiang, who had not spoken, glanced at each other, with slight appreciation in their eyes.

No matter what the truth of the matter is, at least this little woman's qi cultivation kung fu is first-class. This is the first time she has been in the court, and she has been replaced by ordinary people, such as Yao Wenyong, who has been an official for many years, trembling on such an occasion, not to mention that the first time she went to the court, she had to face the attacks of the ministers and the storm.

If you are replaced by another newcomer, you will either fight in two ways, or you will be unable to hold your breath and confess early, then you will be lost in the storm of the imperial history, and in the end, you will inevitably be led by the nose.

Waiting for everyone to have a good time, and then calmly come forward, it is indeed possible to control the scene instantly, but in this situation, how many people can do it?

Li Xiang quietly ordered Shan Shan: "Your Highness exchanged Fushou paste for Sikong to support this girl, Sikong was not happy that day, but now it is worth helping?" ”

Shan Ling snorted, "I don't mention right and wrong, but His Royal Highness didn't lose me this heart." But......" he said leisurely, "let's see how she gets rid of it today." ”

……

Wen Zhen took a step forward, and it was not until he was sure that he had attracted everyone's attention that everyone had stopped talking, and then he smiled: "Today's scene is so familiar. It seems that a few days ago, it happened to celebrate someone's birthday. ”

Everyone was stunned, and then they reacted, she was referring to the banquet and the time when Bu Zhan celebrated his birthday, when she was framed and pointed out by Qianfu.

Everyone looked at each other and understood the pun meaning of this sentence, doesn't this imply and warn that today's events are likely to be similar to the situation at the state banquet that day, and be careful to flip and slap in the face.

Yan Jue's face became even more ugly, and he said, "Are you hinting that someone is framing you?" The hundreds of people who fell into the sea above the Wuhai Sea are all framing you and the third brother, right? ”

"Your Highness," Wen Zhen looked at him with a smile, "Your thinking is really broad. How could anyone frame me? It's like someone poured Bu Shizi full stomach tea before the state banquet that day, so how can it be called framing? That's just a further test. ”

Yan Jue seemed to have been pricked by a needle, and instantly stopped talking, crossing his legs.

Ministers: "......"

I seem to have heard something terrible.

Wen Zhen finished the second half of his sentence with a smile and continued, "...... Therefore, today's is not called framing, but framing. ”

“……”

Lin Yu looked like he was about to jump up, but he was stopped by Taiwei Yao, and the rest of the ministers had colorful expressions on their faces, and suddenly felt that the relationship between this and His Royal Highness King Yi in the legend was not ordinary, and now it seems that it is not a family that does not enter the door, and the little woman who looks gentle and delicate is full of poisonous needles when she speaks.

Yan Sui still doesn't speak today, but today's non-speech is different from the previous non-speech. Standing there like an old peasant, his legs slightly spread, his hands in his sleeves, his eyes squinted, and his whole body exuded the contentment, pleasure and laziness of a man who eats soft rice.

There is a daughter-in-law for everything.

Regardless of his urgency.

That's nice.

After a while, the emperor finally spoke, "Wen Zhen." Good life to speak. If there is any grievance, it means that there is no need to play with people like this. ”

"Yes. The minister didn't dare to be frivolous, but he was really angry that some people were upside down and reversed black and white. Wen Zhen saluted and said, "There are two charges, and the ministers will identify them one by one." Let's talk about the incident of the collision of the ship in the Wuhai Sea, resulting in casualties among the people. She pulled out a piece of music from her sleeve, and the eunuch beside her came up to take it.

"Your Majesty, this is the secret performance of Zhou Qian, the assassin of Jianzhou, and entrusted the minister to submit it to the imperial front. In fact, it can't be regarded as a secret performance, after all, the same content, Zhou Tingshi also wrote a copy, and it should have arrived in Tianjing through the post station, but I don't know why, that piece of music doesn't seem to have been seen by people who should have seen it. ”

On the side, Li Xiang was stunned, and turned his head and ordered a civil official beside him, who was the secretary of Zhongshu Province, and the man hurriedly went.

After a while, he came back and shook his head, and Li Xiang's face was not very good-looking.

Obviously, Zhou Qian's special letter to the imperial court to report this matter did not enter Zhongshu Province. I don't know which link.,Unexpectedly and reasonably.。

Wen Zhen smiled sneeringly and said, "The minister has also made preparations for this, so I asked Zhou Tingshi to write two copies, and ask Your Majesty and all the adults to read them." ”

She had long known that there was an undercurrent in this court, and those that were beneficial to Yan Sui might be stuck, so she made two preparations. reminded Yan Sui not to rush to recommend Zhou Qian before, also because she was worried that Yan Sui might be impeached after returning to Beijing, Jianzhou Assassin Shi is an important witness in this matter, if Yan Sui has recommended Zhou Qian, he will be defaulted to Yan Sui's subordinates, then the credibility of this witness's testimony will be greatly reduced.

The queen has always been cautious in her duty and does not get involved in court politics, she only smiled and nodded when she heard the words, and did not look at the letter, the prince looked at the letter, and the smile on his face faded slightly.

After reading it briefly, the emperor ordered it to be circulated, and everyone passed it down from a single order down, and passed it in turn, except for a few old ministers who were very deep in the city, most of them looked surprised, and when it reached Taiwei Yao, he frowned and glanced at it hastily, sneered, and when it reached Lin Yu, he knelt on the ground, holding his neck and not looking.

Ding Guogong was going to comment at any time, and after reading it, he laughed loudly: "It turns out that there are no casualties among the people." said that this storm scared the old man to death. ”

Wen Zhen said: "On the Wuhai Sea that day, because of the strange design of the Tang family's ship, His Royal Highness suspected that there was a boat in the ship, so in order to avoid too many casualties, after speculating on the location of the ship in the ship, he ordered someone to snatch the rudder of the Tang ship, and the Ji family used the tip of the first ship to hit the location of the ship in the ship, so as to disintegrate the weapons on the Tang ship that might be unfavorable to the people. At that time, the people were gathered in the bow and stern of the ship, away from the center of the impact. So Your Majesty, Niangniang, my lords, I think I have also seen the casualty figures counted by Zhou Assassin. There were almost no deaths. ”

It was the first time for the ministers to hear the explanation from this angle, and they exchanged their heads and ears, and most of them felt that if it was really for this reason to collide with the ship, it would be understandable, after all, the Tang family was an imaginary enemy in everyone's heart.

Regarding the Tang family's marriage and letting the people participate in the ceremony, everyone felt that it was unreasonable, they didn't expect the moth in it, they only felt that the Tang family wanted to coerce the people as hostages.

Such a terrifying design of a ship in a ship proves that the Tang family's intentions are not pure, as His Royal Highness of the Dynasty, Yan Sui's action against the ship in the ship is very reasonable.

Wen Zhen because of Tang Xianzhi's relationship, and because the people were actually brought on the boat by herself, in fact, she didn't want to guide the ministers to think like this, she felt complicated contradictions in her heart, and she didn't want Yan Sui to be attacked, Yan Sui after all, because she ordered the rescue of the people, and she didn't want Tang Xianzhi to be trampled on because of this, if it wasn't for her request, Tang Xianzhi's original plan would definitely not have the people on the boat.

She can only move forward with the development of the situation, and can only take care of the people in front of her first.

I can't ignore it, every time I see him, the crowd is lonely and lonely, and the crowd in the center of the crowd is attacking, so I can't help it, I can't bear it.

It's her fault.

Yao Taiwei said coldly: "With a ship hitting a ship, such a collision, it is inevitable to shake and fall into the water, and the sea water is cold, and the data of typhoid fever and illness afterwards, presumably Zhou Tingshi is in a hurry to report back to the imperial court, and he has not had time to count?" But here I have a picture of what the people present saw and painted, and it reproduces the scene at that time, which is much more vivid than the so-called numbers on paper, and can be read by His Majesty and all the adults. ”

As he spoke, he took out a picture from his bosom, and sure enough, it was the scene at that time, the black waves slanted into a trough, rolled up with countless broken slabs and masts, and there were vaguely sea beasts showing a little cyan head or back, and among those messy debris, there were various colored heads, men and women, shouting and howling with their mouths wide open under the dark sky, and the horror in their eyes seemed to be about to come out of the paper.

The painting is not very good, but the layout is very subtle, and when people see this painting, they seem to be in the cold night water, and in front of them is a ship that suddenly capsizes and breaks, and there are cruel sea beasts wandering around them, waiting to tear and bite people's flesh, and fear is like this beast devouring people.

This emotion is so vivid, and the scene of that moment is captured so accurately, no one believes that it is not the personal experience of the person concerned.

Wen Zhen frowned and looked at the painting, always feeling indescribably familiar, not the picture, but the feeling.

Yan Sui suddenly smiled lightly and said, "It's a good copy." ”

"It's copying." Yao Taiwei said bluntly, "I don't know who the original work is, and it was copied after it was circulated." But what about copying it? Such a picture cannot be imagined out of thin air. ”

Everyone agreed, Wen Zhen was reminded of this, but suddenly understood.

Then she smiled.

Mrs. Yao felt more and more dazzling when he looked at her smile, "Just looking at this picture, you can see that the situation at that time was by no means as thrilling as Zhou Tingshi and Master Wen described. Everyone is sighing and anxious about this picture, why is Master Wen still laughing? Dare to love the safety of the people, is it not worth mentioning to you? ”

He asked fiercely, but Wen Zhen was still calm, shook his head and said, "Taiwei is serious." Xia Guan just laughed at this man's poor skills. ”

"Where's the clumsiness?" Mrs. Yao was aggressive, "Or do you dare to say that this painting is wrong?" ”

"Xia Guan was present at the time, and he must admit that this painting was the scene at that time."

"Then you still ......"

"Xia Guan just regretted that there were many better scenes at that time, why didn't they circulate."

"What scene?" Li Xiang asked with great interest.

"For example, the scene of the rescue of the Tang family's house, such as the scene of Lin Hou and the prince of the Sikong family who were present saving people, such as the scene where His Royal Highness used his own ability to give birth to vegetables and vegetables on the boat to lift the people, such as ......" Wen Zhen glanced at the throne, and finally said it, "His Highness ordered the Tianjing Navy General Liu and the Ji family's ironclad ship to rescue the people with all their might. ”

As soon as her last sentence came out, Yan Sui's eyes flashed.

On the throne, the emperor lowered his eyes and glanced at him.

Wen Zhen sighed in his heart when he saw this lawsuit.

Yan Sui didn't defend this, because there were many things that couldn't be argued, at that time, on the Wuhai Sea, everyone was rescuing, and he really didn't plan to care about the people and just wanted to take the opportunity to solve the problem of the gate valve's children, in fact, it was the imperial court sailor sent by the emperor himself.

But the plan of the imperial court, and the dispute with the gate valve, cannot be brought to the court under any circumstances. Baiguan only knew that the sailor was the main force to rescue the people at that time, but he didn't know that it was because of Yan Sui's order.

How does Yan Sui explain? Said that in fact, the emperor knew his plan, and said that it was actually the court that did not want to save him and was the one who gave the order desperately?

Yan Sui is such a proud person, even if he doesn't have that father-son friendship, he may not be willing to say that.

Wen Zhen understood that their father and son had a tacit understanding, understood that Yan Sui didn't care about this, and understood that even if the ministers attacked him, the emperor let his son take the blame, and she would only be better for Yan Sui in the future, but she also felt that she couldn't help it.

I really can't help it.

Does Yan Sui look so much like a backstabber?

Should I always memorize it if I am used to it?

The layers of pots are stacked and almost look like a 10,000-year-old turtle!

Yes, he is a prince, his status is noble, as long as he is a pure minister and only loyal to his father, even if he is a little wronged for a while, His Majesty knows in his heart, and he will not really make him suffer.

But what about a hundred years from now?

I didn't plan to pass on the throne to him, but if I really planned to pass on the throne to him, he wouldn't always be the one to blame, and he would be a loner with his temperament.

After a hundred years, no matter which brother inherits the throne, will he be able to tolerate him?

Will the ministers have someone to speak for him?

She is like this, it's okay to be a pure minister and a lonely minister, it's a big deal if the official doesn't shrink her head, and the bear's paw is roasted in the mountains.

How is Yan Sui going to turn around? How to cut off the bloodline in the deep value body?

She hung her head, didn't look at the emperor, couldn't see what the emperor was thinking at the moment, maybe disappointed in her from now on...... That's nothing, she doesn't owe this court, where to hide when she turns around, or else she can smuggle out of the country.

The next moment, she heard the emperor say, "Yes, I can prove this." Before Yan Sui left Beijing, he had the will of me to act cheaply, and he also ordered the sailor to save people. ”

He smiled and said, "I didn't say it before, because you all think that I am biased in favor of Yan Sui, and if I say it, it will provoke your impeachment even more fiercely, and I am afraid that you will quarrel." He smiled at Wen Zhen with a slight apology.

The ministers also laughed, and said that His Majesty was serious. Wen Zhen bowed, and his mood became more complicated.

What kind of person is the emperor?

Every time she was disappointed or tempted, he could always give her some unexpected reactions and make her mood waver.

She froze and said, "This painting that the Taiwei took the trouble to collect is very good. But how can the scene at that moment prove that there is no one to rescue the people? ”

After a pause, she added, "The captain convicted others of their guilt because of a painting and a person's words. Then I'll take out more paintings, more words, to prove who the real guilty person is! ”

She turned to bow to the emperor: "Please allow your majesty to send witnesses to the palace to confront you." ”

The Emperor's jaw. Wen Zhen smiled and said, "Please pass on the merchant to get drunk." ”

As soon as the name came out, there was a buzz in the hall, and many people looked back in surprise.

The fame of Shang Zui Cicada in Dongtang is deep-rooted and enduring for a long time, even if he falls off the altar at sea, with the speed of ancient information transmission, it will not react so quickly, and there will be fewer fanatical fans, but the popularity will not decrease.

He entered the hall in front of everyone's eyes, a little nervous, but he was also calm and polite. And got the emperor's courtesy, so that he was exempted from the courtesy.

Everyone's eyes were a little hot, and Shang Drunken Cicada sat down a little uncomfortably. Wen Zhen smiled and said, "Businessmen, let's get straight to the point." I would like to ask you, is this painting a copy of your work? ”

Shang Zuicicada glanced at it and nodded.

In their opinion, he and Wen Zhen are opposites, and Shang Drunken Cicada is too famous, so everyone will naturally not suspect him of colluding with Wen Zhen, a junior and opponent, so they all look at him with great trust.

"Your drawing skills are truly extraordinary. But I think you should have painted more than that, there are so many memorable moments on the sea that day. ”

This is true. Therefore, the grass people did paint more than one picture, and the grass people had the habit of recording with a brush when they encountered problems, so they brought them all today, so as to teach His Majesty and the adults to take a thorough look at the scene of that day. Look at the scene where this side is in trouble and comes to the aid from all directions, and the soldiers work together. ”

Shang Zuicicada took out a few small scrolls from his arms and unfolded them one by one for everyone to see.

As Wen Zhen said, these paintings faithfully recorded the scene at that time, including the impact of the ironclad ship in the center of the Tang ship, the scene of the Tang ship being launched to shoot a giant arrow, the picture of a huge cucumber pod carrying people, and a group portrait - Lin Fei Bai Sikong Yu shuttled through the sea, Wen Zhen stood in the wind and rain to command the rescue, Yan Sui was high on the mast, the Ji family ship and the sailor ship put down the plank, and the people were transferred to the ship.

There is also a picture of Sikong Yu chasing Tang Muzhi out of a ghost, Shang Drunken Cicada is highly skilled, using many afterimages to depict Sikong Yu's strange figure and the danger of the situation at that time, the painting is so vivid that people feel nervous at a glance.

In order to make it easier to carry, the painting was folded, and it was not small after opening, Shang Zuicicada was standing next to Wen Zhen to show it, and suddenly quietly pushed a small square that had not yet been opened to Wen Zhen's hand.

Wen Zhen saw that the painting seemed to be smaller than the usual painting, and opened it in surprise.

“……”

On it, the wind and rain sea are drawn, Wen Zhen is riding a shark on the sea, his hair is straight behind him by the wind, his hand is tightly grasping a knife on the shark's back, and two ropes are tied to the knife, and at the end of the rope, Yan Sui and Tang Xianzhi are being dragged into a flag in the sea.

If it weren't for this tense moment of confrontation with evidence, Wen Zhen would have been able to squirt out breakfast.

This is amazing, the painting is so real! So that as soon as she saw it, she returned to the moment when she rode the shark on the sea that day, her body slid and slipped, the top of her head whined, and only a fishy smell was left in her five senses, and the shark was so fast that she couldn't open her eyes, she only remembered to use all her strength to clamp the fish body, and her hair was pulled wet and cold by the sea breeze and cold rain, like a sticky flag.

The second feeling is that it was such a serious and tense moment at that time, why did the picture look so funny?

And Yan Sui, Tang Xianzhi, was he serious at that time? Like two seals being dragged...... It's so refreshing to look at.

Wen Zhen reacted quickly and folded the painting again as soon as possible.

Shang Zuician winked at her, "I listened to Miss Jun's description, and I thought it was interesting, so I drew it, how about it, do you like it?" 10,000 taels of silver in exchange. ”

Before he finished speaking, he saw Wen Zhen stuff the painting into her own sleeve, and said in surprise: "Painting? What paintings? ”

Shang Drunken Cicada: "......"
