Chapter 13: Kill the Iron Wolf
Hearing Song Hui's father's words, the empress's eyes were full of murder.
She couldn't understand why Song Hui's father was laughing.
The royal law is, of course, the royal law.
Isn't that a matter of course?
Those who disagree with this view should be punished by heaven.
"Father Song Hui, what do you think the royal law is?" The empress was murderous, but her tone was calm and light, as if she was not angry because of Song Hui's father's words.
It's just that the killing intent in her eyes exposes her true thoughts.
Although Song Hui's father does not have high emotional intelligence, he is not a fool, so he can naturally see the empress's dislike.
But he let it go.
"The Son of Heaven broke the law and committed the same crime as the common people, this should be the king's law." Song Hui's father said loudly.
The empress raised her eyebrows and said sarcastically: "You are mistaken, what Shang Jun said is that the prince broke the law and was guilty of the same crime as the common people." ”
"This sentence was not said by Shang Jun, it was said by the champion Hou." Song Hui's father choked back with a word.
The empress, who had been boasting of herself as a champion, choked up.
The British Duke coughed lightly: "Lord Song, what the champion Hou said may not be right. ”
"Dare to ask the British duke, what is wrong with this sentence?"
The British Duke was a little annoyed: "The Son of Heaven is supreme, how can he be compared with the common people." If the authority of the Son of Heaven is not there, the world will inevitably fall into chaos. Lord Song, I know you can't rub sand in your eyes, but as Jiuqing, you should take care of the overall situation. ”
Song Hui's father laughed out loud: "British duke, ten years ago, the authority of the Son of Heaven was there?" ”
British Public: "......"
"At that time, the Son of Heaven retired behind the scenes, and the whole country was united in fighting against demons. I see that I am more aligned than I am now. ”
The British Duke frowned: "This time and that time, it is a wartime state, how can it be compared?" ”
"Originally, after the war, it could have continued that state." Song Hui's father really let it go: "The marshal once said that it doesn't matter whether there is an emperor or not, the world will turn the same way if everyone leaves." As it turned out, what the marshal said was always right. ”
"But he's dead." The empress's cold voice sounded in the hall: "If he is still here, I am willing to listen to him in everything." But he's dead, and now it's up to me to decide. ”
Song Hui's father opened his mouth and wanted to say: "What if the marshal is not dead?" ”
But the words went to his throat, and he gave up again.
Song Hui's father is idealistic, but he is not stupid.
He could guess that maybe Makiyuki was waiting for him to reveal that he was still alive.
Mu Zhi is expecting him to tear off the veil of the empress's warmth and affection with his own hands, and present the truth naked in front of the world.
At that time, choose sides, take sides, confrontation, conflict, and die.
The Empress will not be relentless.
Ten years later, Makiyuki will not be soft.
It would be a turmoil that would affect a lot of people.
Song Hui's father did not spare his life, but he did not want to involve more people.
To this day, he still retains his fantasies:
I hope that Makiyuki can shake hands with the empress and make peace, or resolve the contradictions between them at the lowest cost.
But fantasy is fantasy.
It can never become a reality.
Only the fighter can be delayed.
Song Hui's father sued the empress, and the trouble was vigorous, and he paid for his cultivation.
But in the end, nothing came of it.
Oh no, there's still a catch.
At least Song Hui's father, Dali Siqing's official position, is gone.
This is also the result of the efforts of the meritorious bigwigs of the Vertical Arch Party.
If it weren't for them, Song Hui's father would have to eat a prison meal this time, and he would even die in prison with a "sudden illness".
Even now, no one can guarantee Song Hui's father's safety.
Indeed, there is no evidence that the empress sent someone to assassinate Song Hui's father.
But everyone is not stupid.
Wu Ying, the deputy captain of the plum blossom internal guard, could not listen to other people's words except for the actions that the empress could command.
Since the empress had already murdered Song Hui's father, and today Song Hui's father accused the empress like this in front of everyone, would the empress really let Song Hui's father go generously?
No one dares to guarantee it.
Therefore, the bigwigs who survived the vertical arch war and were still active in the court spontaneously gathered together and accompanied Song Hui's father back to the Song family.
They are expressing their stance with their own practical actions, hoping that His Majesty can open the net and save Song Hui's father with his life.
As for whether it will succeed or not?
No one knows.
……
Song family.
A group of high-ranking veterans looked at Song Hui's father, who was more than twenty years old, and their expressions were extremely complicated.
After a long time, the British Duke sighed: "Old Song, why do you bother? ”
Song Hui's father glanced at the British duke, and there was no life in his eyes.
"Does the king want his ministers to die, and the ministers must die?"
"But nothing happened to you." The British Duke frowned.
Song Hui's father's fists clenched quietly: "That's because I was rescued, if I hadn't been rescued and really killed by Wu Ying, would I have died in vain?" ”
He wasn't so angry because he was afraid of death.
Instead, he was angry that such a bad thing had happened, and no one in the Manchu Dynasty was willing to investigate it.
"If my Song Hui's father died in Wu Ying's assassination today, and you also know that His Majesty sent someone to do it, will you all stand by and watch?"
No one spoke.
The friendship between this group of people and Song Hui's father is real.
In the court before, at the risk of offending the empress, they saved Song Hui's father, and there is no doubt about this feeling.
But the reason for this is that Song Hui's father is still alive and standing in front of them.
If Song Hui's father was a dead man, would they still fight for Song Hui's father?
This is indeed a problem.
And silence is an answer in itself.
Song Hui's father smiled self-deprecatingly: "Yes, you don't even care if the marshal dies, let alone me." ”
The British public couldn't listen to it anymore: "Old Song, just talk, don't carry a gun and a stick." So far, there is no evidence to prove that the death of the marshal is related to His Majesty, so don't chase after the wind. ”
Song Hui's father stared at the British Duke and asked word by word: "What if there is evidence to prove it?" ”
Everyone was shocked.
Qin Guogong directly got up and closed the door, and set up a soundproof barrier.
The British Duke added another layer to the soundproof barrier arranged by the Duke of Qin, just in case.
The information that Song Hui's father had just revealed was so deadly that they had to be so cautious.
After doing all this prevention work, everyone's eyes were focused on Song Hui's father.
The British Duke asked in a trembling voice: "Old Song, have you really found the evidence?" ”
"Yes."
"Can you prove that His Majesty has something to do with the death of the marshal?"
"The evidence is overwhelming."
What Makiyuki himself said, of course, can't be false.
Song Hui's father told Mu Zhi that he was looking for other evidence, but in fact, he knew in his heart that what happened back then was a certainty.
"In the past, we have been deceiving ourselves, and now that the truth is revealed, are you pretending to turn a blind eye, or are you seeking justice for the marshal?"
