Chapter 275: The Emperor is Suspicious
What is the intention of going to the Left Prime Minister's Mansion twice?
Zhao Ziyi laughed secretly in his heart, how long did Yu Xiaozi go to Zuo Xiangzi's mansion twice, plus the time Xiang Jin pretended to be "Jade Xiaozi", it should be counted three times, it seems that Zuo Xiang is not a good person in the eyes of that girl.
The reason why Zhao Ziyi chose to be arrested in the Zuo Xiangfu was because the Zuo Xiangfu was notoriously heavy and difficult to get out.
The real Jade Xiaozi can only be convincing if he is caught in the well-known predicament, which is nothing more than his normal thinking as a Jade Xiaozi.
But he couldn't tell the emperor about this reason, so he had to think of other reasons for the emperor's questions.
Since the emperor has doubts about this, let's give him a law!
So Zhao Ziyi replied: "Back to the emperor, the reason why the minister repeatedly visited the Zuo Prime Minister's mansion at night was because the minister suspected that the Zuo Prime Minister was colluding with people outside the state!" ”
In fact, when Zhao Ziyi went to Zuo Xiang's Mansion for the first time, he was suspicious of Zuo Xiang.
Because he inadvertently saw that Zheng Zongquan entertained the Liao people in private, and entertaining the Liao people was not a big deal, but Zheng Zongquan was the left minister to the nobles, but he was respectful to the Liao people, which was suspicious.
Zhao Ziyi has never been interested in the affairs of the court, but he also doesn't want the important ministers relied on by the emperor to have different intentions for our court, so after he stole something, he stayed for a while longer, otherwise he would not be discovered.
At that time, he planned to investigate in Zuo Xiang's mansion, trying to find out what Zuo Xiang was doing with the Liao people behind his back, but Zheng Zongquan sent many masters to guard the inner hall, so he was found and left the jade flute behind in the process of escaping.
Later, because his identity was exposed, the emperor closely monitored him, so he had no chance to continue the investigation, and in the past few years, the Liao State and our dynasty have been peaceful, and Zhao Ziyi didn't think much about it.
Although he has no tangible evidence in his hand, it is a fact that Zheng Zongquan has an unforgivable secret with the Liao people, so it is just right to come out now to remind the emperor.
The emperor raised his eyebrows and asked casually, "Oh? Good end betting, why would you investigate Zuo Xiang? ”
How could the emperor believe Zhao Ziyi's words, Zheng Zongquan has always been loyal to him, even when he designed to assassinate King Xian, it was Zuo Xiang who gave him advice, if there was no Zuo Xiang, he would not have been able to get rid of King Xian who was holding the gold medal in his hand so easily.
Because the first emperor had long expected that he would not be able to tolerate the virtuous king, he would give a death-free gold medal to the virtuous king before his death, and if he wanted to bypass this death-free gold medal, the only way to let the virtuous king die at the hands of others, so Zheng Zongquan gave him advice and let the virtuous king die unexpectedly.
Therefore, when King Xian and Zuo Xiang went to the Liao Kingdom, Zheng Zongquan deliberately pretended to be sick and asked King Xian to escort Jin Qilin back to the dynasty alone, and on the way back, they had already set up an ambush and killed King Xian.
Although in the process of assassinating King Xian, the golden unicorn disappeared, but the emperor was already very satisfied with the fact that he could get rid of the big trouble, so he would not be suspicious of Zheng Zongquan.
Now that Zhao Ziyi is like this, it will only make the emperor more suspicious, suspecting that Zhao Ziyi is investigating the death of King Xian, so he will repeatedly visit Zuo Xiangfu at night, which is actually a clue for him to judge whether Yue Muying is alive.
Because of these things, Yue Muying later knew everything, if Zhao Ziyi found out about Zuo Xiang, it must have been his mother who told him.
Zhao Ziyi replied truthfully: "The minister didn't mean it, but when he was making a jade flute, he sneaked to the Zuo Xiang's Mansion and accidentally saw that there were Liao people in the Zuo Xiang's Mansion, so he was suspicious!" ”
