CHAPTER XLV
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, General, the Emperor invites the two of you to come in." The father-in-law, who was waiting in front of the palace, pushed the door out and said respectfully to Qi Jingyang and Liang Fengmian who were standing outside the hall.
Qi Jingyang gave up his hand to invite Liang Fengmian to go in, this low-eyed and pleasing appearance made others look surprised, His Royal Highness the Prince, who is arrogant and domineering on weekdays, also has such a docile and obedient side, but he was also relieved to see that it was General Liang, how to say that he was also a teacher when he was young, and he should be respectful.
Everyone only saw the prince's knowledge today, but they couldn't see the smugness that was about to come out of the corners of his eyes.
Liang Fengmian didn't squint, didn't even look at him, then raised his feet and walked into the Qinzheng Palace, Qi Jingyang smiled, and followed closely.
The murder of Liang Huanqing caused a storm in the city, and King Jing disappeared one after another, and Master Fu Yuan of Jingzhao Mansion also went out of the city for several hours and did not return.
Several major forces in Shangjing City sent spies out of the city to investigate, and when it was sunset, they all received the news that Wen Shihao, the owner of the Black Wind Village, and the people of the village attacked and ambushed Liang Huanqing.
As soon as he entered the Qinzheng Palace, he saw the emperor pinching his brows and taking a nap on the dragon chair, thinking that his body was getting weaker and weaker, but he couldn't breathe under the heavy pressure of state affairs.
"The sons and daughters visit their father, long live their father, long live long live."
"Weichen see the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor."
Rao is voice of inviting An to pay homage failed to wake up the emperor, and Gonggong He, who was standing by the dragon case and waiting, owed Qi Jingyang and Liang Fengmian, so he stepped forward and whispered to the emperor: "Your Majesty... Emperor... The crown prince and the general arrived. ”
The emperor heard Grandpa He's call, so he woke up, but the headache was really bad, he was a little tired on his face, and raised his hand to signal Grandpa He to come forward and rub the acupuncture points for himself.
"Has my father's health been good lately? Do you need to pass on the imperial doctor to take a look? Qi Jingyang asked with concern.
The emperor raised his hand to brush away Gonggong He's hand, shook his head, sighed, and said, "There is a big event in the city today, have you ever heard of it?" ”
seemed to ask the two of them, but his eyes stayed on Qi Jingyang.
Qi Jingyang arched his hand and said: "Erchen went back to the East Palace to deal with government affairs in the morning after the morning dynasty, Pei Yu went out of the palace in the early morning to visit the garden with several ladies, and only came back at noon, and when I had dinner with her, I heard that the eldest lady of the Liang family was out of the city. ”
Saying that, he also glanced at Liang Fengmian who was standing beside him with deep regretful eyes: "This time is different from the past, seeing that Jing Qin is about to marry Miss Liang, for the care of his cousin, Erchen specially ordered someone to inquire about the news, only to learn that it was the bane left by General Liang when he entered Beijing in the early years, and Wen Shihao was dissatisfied with what General Liang did back then, so he set up an ambush when Miss Liang returned to the city, wanting to take her life." ”
Liang Fengmian's fists were clenched tightly, the green tendons on his forehead were bulging, and his mood was difficult to calm down.
Qi Jingyang turned to Liang Fengmian and said: "The father and son of the Liang family are loyal to the country, and the border wars have occurred frequently in recent days, and the people in the city may not have been affected by them, which is all the credit of the general, but as the prince, the palace is always sympathetic to the general's hard work." After learning that Huanqing had an accident, I immediately ordered someone to track down Huanqing's whereabouts, but it was too late when I got the news, knowing that the general was dealing with military affairs in the camp, and I didn't dare to talk to the general, so I privately ordered to clean up Heifeng Village, and there were dozens of villagers in the village, none of whom were left behind, in order to comfort the pain of the general's loss. ”
Qi Jingyang's words put all the blame on Wen Shihao, and deliberately proposed that this was the bane left by Liang Fengmian's quick knife to cut through the chaos when he cleared the mountain bandits, and the seemingly reasonable inference was even more felt that this was the truth of the matter, but in the end, he was a great good person, sending troops to clean up the remnants of Heifeng Village, not only betraying favors, but also sweeping away the evidence for himself, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.
Thinking of this, Qi Jingyang couldn't help but feel proud, he couldn't say where Qi Jingqin was going now, but Qi Jingqin, who had lost the protection of the Liang family, couldn't make much ripples, just when he ascended the throne, he would find a reason to put Qi Jingqin to death or exile to avoid the trouble in his heart.
"Why do you say Huan Qing is dead!" Liang Fengmian couldn't hold back any longer, ignoring the rules in front of the emperor, and yelled at the prince.
Qi Jingyang was frightened, and just when he was about to say something, the emperor slapped the table in front of him heavily, and the porcelain cup was shaken up and fell to the ground, making a crisp sound.
"Enough!" Seeing that the emperor was angry, all the eunuchs and maids serving in the palace knelt down, fearing that anger would fall on their heads.
Liang Fengmian and Qi Jingyang also stopped talking, and knelt in front of the palace with their heads hanging down to listen to the fate.
only heard a heavy sigh, and the man in the seat said: "You want to see people in life, and you want to see corpses in death, before you see Liang Huanqing's body, don't jump to conclusions, the murder of Miss Jingzhong this time needs to be investigated, Jing Yang, you are reckless again!" ”
Qi Jingyang had to echo: "Yes." Sons and daughters remember the teachings. ”
"I have heard about today's events, and now Liang Huanqing's life and death are uncertain, and Jing Qin is nowhere to be seen, and I am also very sad." The emperor looked at Liang Fengmian and said, "Liang Aiqing has followed me for many years, has been a safe and proper person, has made great achievements, and has made great contributions to the Celestial Empire, Aiqing can rest assured, I will not let go of any bandit who hurts your family, before the matter is decided, even if you dig three feet into the ground, I will also find Huanqing for you." ”
Today's Celestial Empire, the outside is strong and the middle is dry, and the gold and jade are defeated outside, and others don't know it, but as the emperor of the Celestial Empire, he is the most aware of the current situation, there is a dispute between the party and the ministers inside, and there is an invasion of thieves outside, he can't do without Liang Fengmian, so after learning that Liang Huanqing had an accident, he summoned Liang Fengmian as soon as possible to appease him first.
Listening to the words of the emperor, Liang Fengmian knew the emperor's thoughts, the Celestial Empire was a country, and it was the home he fought for all his life, and he did his best to resist the invasion of foreign troops without the emperor's words. What's more, Liang Lin has now led his troops to find it, and he can not trust anyone, but he only trusts his own army.
Liang Fengmian thanked him: "Thank you for your compassion, Weichen is grateful." ”
The emperor nodded with satisfaction, and then turned to Qi Jingyang on the side of the pestle, and said: "Outside the capital, it belongs to the security office of Jingzhao Mansion, and now there is an accident outside the city, and the two people have been killed and lost contact one after another. This matter will be handed over to the crown prince to do, before the new Jingzhao Mansion Yin takes office, you are responsible for the security of the capital, if anything happens, I will ask you! In addition, send troops to find Jingqin again, be quick! ”
The emperor is still very relieved about Qi Jingqin, he only believes that Qi Jingqin is just missing, and he is not worried that he will also be killed, this son who is proficient in Wen Taowu has his heart.
"The retainers take the order."
Seeing that everything he wanted to say was explained clearly, the emperor leaned on the dragon chair and closed his eyes to recuperate, Gonggong He hurriedly looked at Qi Jingyang and Liang Fengmian and asked them to withdraw, and they saluted the emperor and both withdrew.
After leaving the Qinzheng Palace, Qi Jingyang said to Liang Fengmian: "General Liang mourns. ”
Liang Fengmian didn't want to entangle with him so much, thinking that there was something in the army, he snorted coldly and walked away.
Qi Jingyang laughed happily behind him, he couldn't imagine that Zhao Peiyu, a woman who looks extremely stupid on weekdays, is quite reliable when she occasionally comes up with an idea, and she eliminated a big trouble with a snap of her fingers.
