Being stirred up by Xie Chenfeng like this, Gu Tingjun was no longer in the mood to continue the early dynasty, and after scolding Sun Jizong angrily, he directly threw up his sleeves and left.

The emperor has retreated, and the other courtiers naturally can't stay in the palace stupidly, although they all want to see the excitement, but what does Sun Jizong say is also the uncle of the country, belonging to half of the royal people, is the royal excitement so good-looking?

So, except for Xu Tianci, who was called away by Gu Tingjun with his eyes, as well as Xie Chenfeng and several imperial historians who were waiting for the results, everyone else dispersed.

Inside the Imperial Study.

Gu Tingjun sat expressionlessly in front of the imperial case, and said to Xu Tianci, who was standing in front of him, with a little annoyance: "What does Aiqing think of today's affairs?" ”

How to reply to the emperor's question is a technical job for the courtiers, pretending to be stupid and saying that you don't know will think you are incompetent, guessing the emperor's mind will feel that you are speculating about the king's heart, it can be said that there will be a problem if you are a little careless, and if it is serious, you will lose your head.

Therefore, as the current favorite minister, Xu Tianci understands the proportions and scales very well, and after pretending to think for a while, he said in a cautious tone: "Your Majesty, Yichen's understanding of the Marquis of Xiaoyao, although he is a little reckless, he should not be a killer to a junior, maybe there is some misunderstanding?" However, what the minister said was just his own speculation, and the details had to wait for Jing Zhaoyin's reinstatement, and the minister believed that with the emperor's wisdom, he would have his own judgment when the time came. ”

Although he decided in his heart that it was Sun Jizong, a fool, who was dragging his feet, but after all, he was a relative of the emperor, and it was not his turn to have a small household book to put his beak, and how to deal with it was the emperor's business, he was not qualified to point fingers, so he simply came to Tai Chi, which seemed to have said everything, and both aspects were considered, but in fact, it was equivalent to saying nothing.

Gu Tingjun raised his eyes and glanced at him lightly, chuckled, but the smile did not reach the bottom of his eyes, and said, "Aiqing thinks very well." ”

"I don't dare." Xu Tianci hurriedly knelt down and pleaded guilty.

Gu Tingjun waved his hand a little impatiently, "Get up, I didn't blame you." ”

Xu Tianci stood up again, but his head kept lowered, not daring to face Tianyan.

Gu Tingjun picked up a clean wolf on the table and played with it, and said helplessly: "The ministers are groveling to me on the surface, long live long live is shouting loudly, but what about behind the scenes? I know that you are all afraid of me, and think that I am suspicious and arbitrary, but who knows that I am in this position and I am so cold that I don't even have someone who can say intimate words. ”

Xu Tianci hurriedly expressed his loyalty and said: "The minister has never felt that the emperor is arbitrary and arbitrary, in the heart of the minister, the emperor is definitely worthy of being the king of the world!" ”

He knows very well in his heart that when the emperor is talking to you, you must not take it seriously, even if you listen to it, you can show your loyalty immediately, but you can't believe it.

The emperor is the emperor, that is, he cannot tolerate the slightest disrespect, everything he says is right, if you really follow his words to talk to him and treat him as your friend, then you are not far from death.

Gu Tingjun didn't expect Xu Tianci to say anything, he just talked to himself, sneered when he heard the words, and said, "Okay, what are you thinking in your heart, can I not know?" There is no need to pat yourself on the back, just do a good job for me, and I will not treat the heroes badly. ”

"The emperor has orders, the ministers should go all out, smear their livers and brains, and die!"

"Tanhualang is Tanhualang, and when he talks, it's all a set."

"The minister is terrified."

As the two were talking, they heard the eunuch report that Jing Zhao Yin had come back to life, Gu Tingjun immediately straightened his figure, and passed that Jing Zhao Yin had come to see him, and Xu Tianci quickly retreated to the side and stood.

The current Jing Zhaoyin is a sincere person, just simply loyal to the imperial power, and does not side with any forces, which is also the reason why Gu Tingjun is relieved to let him sit in this position, after all, everything in the capital has to go through his hands, and it is the safest to find a neutral person to serve it.

It's not that he didn't want to put his henchmen in this position, but at the moment, the power of the family has not been removed, and those self-proclaimed righteous Qingliu like to toss blindly, in order to avoid trouble, he can only retreat to the second, anyway, as long as those families are not cheap.

"Your Majesty, the minister was ordered to take Imperial Doctor Chen to the Xiaoyao Marquis's mansion, and found that the Xiaoyao Marquis was not seriously injured as he said, the wound on his head had healed, and there was nothing unusual about his body. According to the emperor's request, the minister asked him to hand over the antidote, but he flatly denied the poisoning, and refused to cooperate, the minister had no choice but to let people search the house, and finally found the remaining 'ten days drunk' and antidote from the dark room of the study, and the minister had already let Imperial Doctor Chen identify it. After speaking, Jing Zhaoyin raised his hands above his head and presented the seized poisons and antidotes one by one.

Although it was already certain that Sun Jizong had done a stupid thing like this, seeing that he had won the stolen goods, Gu Tingjun couldn't help but scold him a few words in his heart, and then said in a deep voice: "Where is Xiaoyao Hou now?" ”

Jing Zhaoyin replied: "The minister has arranged for someone to take him to the heavenly prison, just waiting for the emperor to send him." ”

"What about the rest of the Hou Mansion?"

"Because the emperor's edict only allowed the minister to escort the Marquis of Xiaoyao alone, the rest of the Hou Mansion was temporarily imprisoned in the mansion, and the minister had arranged for soldiers to guard it."

"You have done a good job, until this matter is thoroughly investigated, the people of the Hou Mansion don't need to move for the time being, you go down first, let Master Xie come over, I promised to give him an explanation."

Not long after, Xie Chenfeng, who had been waiting for the summons in the side hall, hurriedly came to the imperial study.

As soon as he finished saluting according to the rules, before he could speak, Gu Tingjun took the lead in opening his mouth, with a hint of self-reproach and anger in his tone, "Xie Aiqing, Jing Zhaoyin must have told you something, right?" Don't worry, I will give you an explanation for this matter, and I will not favor Xiaoyaohou, you will take the antidote first, and it is important to save people! ”

Xie Chenfeng hurriedly pretended to be moved, knelt down and bowed to Gu Tingjun, and then took the antidote handed by Gonggong Wei, and choked up: "The little nephew of the minister has thanked the emperor Longen, long live the emperor, long live, long live!" ”

After walking out of the imperial study, it wasn't until he was almost at the gate of the palace that Xie Chenfeng turned around, glanced at it with a gloomy face, snorted fiercely with his nose, and left the palace with his sleeves.

What he said is really good, he will not be partial, if he really will not be partial, he should call Sun Jizong by his name, instead of calling him Xiaoyaohou.

If you don't get rid of his title even if you get it, isn't this partiality?

The emperor's mouth, the deceitful ghost, hum!

Prison.

Although Sun Jizong was sent to the prison, he was the uncle of the country after all, and before the holy decree was issued, he was at most a criminal suspect, not a real criminal.

The officials in the prison are all shrewd, and they will definitely not easily offend a relationship that is very likely to be just a "few days in the prison", so he arranged a clean and bright single room, although it is impossible to serve him with good wine and meat, high beds and soft pillows, but the attitude is definitely quite good.

But even so, Sun Jizong still felt bitter in his heart.

Not only bitter, but also very wronged.

How could it be possible that part of the "Decameron Drunkenness" and antidote could be used in the dark room of the study? As a person who picks the door a little, he knows what he has in his hand, and it is impossible for these two things to appear that he has never been in his hands.

But the person who came to search the mansion was Jing Zhaoyin, who had always been neutral and did not take sides, and would never deliberately frame him, so there was only one possibility, there was something wrong with those people in his mansion.

However, the people who can know the location of the dark room in the study and the method of switching on and off are all his trusted henchmen, even Pang Zi, the lady of the main room, can't get in, how did the others go in and hide things?

I can't figure it out, I can't figure it out, I have a headache, my heart is congested, I'm so sad.

He sent someone to search the mansion again, and put him in prison, the emperor's brother-in-law shouldn't want to give up on him, right?

The more Sun Jizong thought about it, the more worried he became, the more he thought about it, the more scared he became, and pinned all his hopes on his own sister.

At this time, Empress Sun, who he had high hopes for, was losing her temper in her bedroom.

"Why do you think he's so stupid? You can't do a little thing! If you poison it, you will poison it, and you will be caught by others! If you catch it, you will catch it, and the rest of the poison will not be destroyed, so keep it for the New Year or prepare to poison yourself to death before you are stupid to death? ”

Empress Sun was so angry that she slapped the table several times in a row with her right hand, if it weren't for the good reputation she had built up for a long time, she would have wanted to learn from the most powerful Mei nobleman in the palace to smash things and flip the table.

Chen Gonggong, the chief eunuch in her palace, hurriedly reassured: "Niangniang, don't be angry with your body, Uncle Guo is still waiting for you to save him in the prison!" ”

"What to save? Now that the stolen goods are obtained, let him die and get it! Has this palace helped him clean up less mess over the years? Do you see when he learned his lesson and grown? The palace doesn't care, just let the emperor cut him! ”

"Ouch, my mother, don't be angry, although Uncle Guo is a little reckless, but after all, he is your brother-in-law, and now that there is an antidote, won't the fourth son of the Xie family die? As long as there are no fatalities, everything can be solved. ”

Empress Sun was also angry to say so many words against her will, and now that her emotions are vented, people have calmed down.

"What do you say the Xie family has planned? Since Xie Chenfeng dared to break this matter in the early dynasty, then they should not be willing to be good, do they simply want to seek justice for their juniors, or do they want to use this incident to attack the palace? Empress Sun squinted her eyes and said.

People who have been in the palace for a long time will basically rise to conspiracy theories when they encounter anything, especially someone like her who is in a high position, and the matter of sesame mung bean points has to be broken and crushed and studied for several days, and she will definitely not draw any conclusions easily.

Chen Gonggong is the same, what kind of master will definitely have what kind of minions.

After frowning and pondering for a while, he guessed: "Niangniang, the slave just thought about it carefully, it is said that we have no grudge against the Xie family, but why did Uncle Guo want to give Xie Si such a poisonous poison?" Do you think there is anything wrong with this? ”

It's not that Empress Sun hasn't thought about this question, but she was shocked by the fact that she was stolen and seized, so she subconsciously ignored this problem, and now that she saw Gonggong Chen mention it again, she couldn't help frowning slightly, and asked with some uncertainty: "You mean that there are other people's hands behind this matter?" ”

"Maybe it's the Xie family's own thief who shouted to catch the thief?"

"Probably not, Xie Jiasu is very high, he can't get used to those privacy methods, and he disdains them, if the eldest brother is really wronged, there must be other people behind the scenes who want to take advantage of the fisherman!"

I have to say that the character design is still very useful, look, the Xie family is set up too successfully, obviously this time it was a trick, but no one believed it.
