Qi Ming stood at the bottom, and he could clearly see that the emperor's face changed from nonchalant, to solemn, and then unfathomable.

On the last point, Qi Ming was a little unclear about the emperor's emotions.

"Is this letter really written by the Fifth Prince?"

"Qi Ming didn't believe it before, and compared this letter with a glimmer of hope, and another letter written by the fifth brother, the handwriting of the two is exactly the same."

The emperor pondered for a moment, and then said, "Immediately pass the five princes into the palace." ”

Qi Ming looked at the emperor anxiously, but looking at his non-compromising appearance, he didn't say anything in the end.

Prince Rui's Palace.

Duan Xingzhen also received this news, and he had just come back at this time.

"Since it's urgent, you can go over first." Qin Yunluo said, "I always feel that this letter comes out a little strange, you see, can you find any clues." ”

Duan Xingzhen didn't know at this time that the matter of Yu Pei had been exposed, and he was still thinking about countermeasures along the way.

Palace.

Qi Han and Duan Xingzhen arrived at the same time, but when Qi Han came over, he still didn't know what was going on, and he couldn't understand why the emperor wanted to summon him now.

"Does the prince know what's going on? This suddenly called me into the palace, and I couldn't figure out anything for a while. ”

"Qi Ming met the emperor with a letter and said that this time you planned it."

Qi Han was taken aback, and immediately denied it, "It is believed that I will not do this matter, since I have already come to the Ji Dynasty, how can I do this?" ”

Duan Xingzhen said as he walked inside, helping Qi Han to recognize the current situation.

"It's not something you can say clearly if you deny it, as for what you should do when the time comes, see Qingkang."

"Yes."

Not long after the two of them entered, the emperor directly told the story straight to the point.

Qi Ming on the side looked at him proudly, with indescribable joy on his face.

Duan Xingzhen took everything into his eyes, and stood aside without getting involved at the beginning.

"Your Majesty, this matter is absolutely unjust."

Qi Han can barely be considered calm now, "How can I directly determine that this matter is related to me because of a letter?" Presumably, His Majesty would not be so easy to believe in this matter. ”

"It is imperative that this person definitely wants to destroy the friendship between our Qi State and the Ji Dynasty, so there are so many things that have happened now, please let Your Majesty know about it."

"This matter aside, another thing." The emperor said, "The jade pendant that Duan Shizi found on the assassin before is also yours of the Fifth Prince, how do you explain this matter?" ”

Duan Xingzhen looked at Qi Ming on the side, looking at him with confidence, and there was a faint bad premonition in his heart.

Qi Han looked at Duan Xingzhen suddenly, and then immediately said, "Qi Han knows, it is a justification to say anything now, but this matter must be made clear." ”

"If I'm not mistaken, this jade pendant is very simple to make, there is only a single Han character, this jade pendant I have lost on the way to the capital, I don't know why it appeared in the hands of the assassin."

The emperor pondered for a moment and did not speak, but Duan Xingzhen stood up.

"Your Majesty, the exact extent of this matter is still up for debate."

Duan Xingzhen ignored Qi Ming's murderous eyes on the side, and just said, "When I was in Qi Country before, the Fifth Prince saved my life, and the two of us have also been together for a while. ”

Qi Ming wanted to speak, but was glared back by Duan Xingzhen.

"And, just like what the Fifth Prince said, this matter is a bit strange, why did you choose to do this after the two of us signed an agreement?"

"Wechen still don't have a clue, which is enough to show how long they have been planning this matter, so this matter can't be concluded for the time being."

The emperor was also a little silent after hearing this, but Qi Ming on the side couldn't help it.

"Duan Shizi said this matter well, it's just that you want to protect people, your relationship in Qi was good before, and now there is indeed a major event that destroys the peace between the two countries, is it true that the relationship between the two of you is more than the relationship between countries?"

Qi Ming's words were obviously provocative, the emperor didn't take it to heart, Duan Xingzhen didn't rest assured, only the two brothers took this sentence to heart.

"Big brother's words are serious, aren't we coming here with the heart of wanting peace between the two countries? If it's like what the eldest brother said, then what's the point of us coming? ”

Qi Ming was unwilling to refute, but was choked by Qi Han again, "Don't talk nonsense about these words in the future, what is the truth of this matter, it will definitely come out, if the eldest brother continues to be entangled like this, I am afraid that it will be very ugly to watch." ”

The emperor interrupted Qi Ming's second words, "What is the truth of this matter, since Duan Shizi is still investigating, he will definitely find out the ins and outs of the matter, it's just a matter of time." ”

"Don't quarrel any more between the two of you, and go back to the station."

Qi Ming didn't make himself feel comfortable this time, obviously he looked like he was not close to anyone.

Qi Han left with Duan Xingzhen and said the matter again.

"You don't have to keep telling this matter to Ben Shizi, as for the truth, what is between you two brothers, these things Ben Shizi doesn't want to know."

"If you ask for that seat first, I will discuss it before and will help you, but that's all."

Qi Han was silent for a long time before he nodded, "Thank you, Shizi." ”

Duan Xingzhen looked at the back of Qi Han leaving, and then thought about Qi Ming's previous actions on top of the Golden Palace, and finally asked people to look at them and not make any trouble.

It's no secret that the three of them entered the palace together, and it's even more so now.

Shortly after they left, a minister approached the emperor.

"What's the matter with Li Aiqing?"

"Your Majesty, Weichen heard that Duan Shizi, the five princes of Qi and the eldest prince all entered the palace before, so he thought about entering the palace as well."

"Oh? So what is Li Aiqing's so-called? ”

"Wechen knows all about this matter, and he can be regarded as knowing about it." Master Li was one of the few adults who went to the post station before.

"In the end, this matter is still their state affair." Master Li said, "Although the Fifth Prince and the Great Prince were assassinated in our Ji Dynasty, it is still up to to be discussed who the assassins are. ”

"Now that it has been confirmed that it is a person from their Qi country, what does this matter have to do with our Ji Dynasty?"

The emperor thought about it, this matter is really like this, "What is Li Aiqing's opinion?" ”

"Leave it to them to return to China to solve it by themselves, as for what will happen at that time, it has nothing to do with our Jichao."
