299. General Zhenxi

News of the haunting of Jianing Palace quietly spread among the palace.

Everyone said that they heard the movement in Jianing Palace last night, saying that someone wanted to assassinate the emperor, Ye Guifei's soul was not dispersed, and she had no body, but she still went to Jianing Palace in person to protect the emperor from the assassin's poisonous hands.

As early as the morning came, the civil and military officials with a keen sense of smell naturally all heard the news, and no one was not a chill down their spines.

They had been secretly pressuring the emperor and the queen mother to burn Ye Guifei to death, and now if Ye Guifei's soul was still there, wouldn't they come to them to settle accounts?

Qin Tianjian Zheng Envoy fell ill immediately after hearing the news in the morning, obviously worried that Ye Jingjing would come to take revenge on him, right?

"The emperor has arrived!"

Gu Jinzhong's shrill voice sounded, and immediately made all the ministers shut up.

Emperor Qianling's face was gloomy, and his gaze swept over the faces of all the ministers with a full sense of oppression, making the civil and military officials above the court bury their heads even lower.

"Tell me the will."

Emperor Qianling suddenly spoke, word by word, "The third prince, Emperor Luochen, sneaked into the palace last night to try to assassinate me, plotting to usurp the throne, and immediately arrested Emperor Luochen, stripped the title, and killed!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the court was in an uproar.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please think twice! The third prince is currently being tortured in the Zongren Mansion, how could he assassinate the emperor last night! It doesn't make sense! ”

"Yes, the emperor, I'm afraid that someone with a heart wants to blame the three princes, the purpose is to provoke the royal family dispute in the calendar, the emperor, fratricidal things are absolutely undesirable, and please ask the emperor to take back the order, this matter needs to be investigated!"

"Please ask the emperor to take back his fate!"

The officials stood up one by one and opposed Emperor Qianling's direct order to kill Emperor Luochen.

Emperor Qianling looked at their faces one by one coldly, and suddenly shouted, "Bastard! ”

"Are you saying now that I lied and deliberately tried to harm him? Life is at stake, how could I be wrong? ”

"Di Luochen's face, how can I admit my mistake?"

"You only know how to exonerate Di Luochen in front of me, and you only know how to persuade me not to kill each other, how can you ever tell Di Luochen to respect me as the emperor!"

“……”

The Son of Heaven was furious, and the blood flowed like a river.

Seeing that Emperor Qianling had become as angry as it is now, everyone immediately fell silent and did not dare to speak.

The Manchu Dynasty was silent for a long time, and the imperial history master stood up, "Your Majesty, if this matter is in doubt, why doesn't the emperor order his subordinates to find the three princes who are being tortured in the Zongren Mansion, and the emperor will interrogate them personally?" ”

Emperor Qianling glanced at him coldly, as if he felt that this matter was feasible, so he nodded and asked Gu Jinzhong to order someone to bring Di Luochen out of the Zongren Mansion.

There was silence in the court for about a quarter of an hour, and Di Luochen was belatedly brought to the court.

His hair was messy, his body was a dirty and dirty garment, and there were blood stains and wounds all over him, and even Di Luochen, who had been pulled up to the main hall, looked like he was dying.

This look, not to mention that the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty refused to believe that Di Luochen had assassinated Emperor Qianling, and even Emperor Qianling himself couldn't help but wonder if the person last night was really Di Luochen.

"Look up."

He commanded coldly.

Di Luochen slowly raised his head sluggishly, and the messy hair on his forehead blocked his eyes, but Di Qianling still recognized his eyes at a glance.

It must have been him last night!

"Di Luochen, can you plead guilty?" He asked.

Di Luochen staggered and knelt in front of Emperor Qianling, trembling, as if he was enduring pain, kneeling in front of Emperor Qianling, and said in a faint voice, "What I haven't done, I won't admit it when I die." ”

"Di Luochen, you have mutilated your siblings, your father's spirit in the sky, you must have seen it all, even if I die, I will be waiting for you in hell!"

“……”

These words, in the eyes of Emperor Qianling, may be stubborn and unchangeable.

But in the eyes of civil and military officials, it is a clear will to die, and the wind is high.

Finally, another official knelt behind Di Luochen under tremendous pressure, "Your Majesty, not to mention that the third prince did not have a reason to assassinate the emperor, that is, with his current weak body, how could he enter and leave the palace without anyone knowing?" ”

"The hand of the third prince can't even hold a dagger, how can he assassinate the emperor? This must be framed by a villain, please let the emperor know! ”

Emperor Qianling could clearly see the smugness in Di Luochen's eyes.

That provocative look was like asking him, "I really want to kill you, but what can you do with me?" ”

"What do you mean by Lord Ai, that I am the villain who wronged the third prince?"

Emperor Qianling's voice was not angry or happy, but it made a dense layer of white sweat grow from his back for no reason.

"I don't dare."

"Don't dare? I don't think you dare to do anything. ”

Emperor Qianling chuckled, "Didn't you still shout about burning my concubine to death yesterday, what else would you not dare?" ”

“……”

There was a dead silence in the courtroom.

Sure enough, because of Concubine Ye Guifei's death, the emperor still held a grudge against them.

Emperor Qianling looked at Di Luochen, who was kneeling in front of him pretendly, "I was indeed assassinated last night, and the person who assassinated me did have a face exactly the same as the three princes in front of you. ”

"You advise me not to kill each other, okay, then who will give me an explanation for this matter?"

There was silence in the court.

Who has the ability to give an explanation to Emperor Qianling? He is the emperor, if there is really anything missing, how can these courtiers afford it?

After a long silence, someone finally stood up.

"Your Majesty, the minister has something to say."

Su Yansheng knelt beside Di Luochen, clasped his fists at the Emperor Qianling who was sitting on the dragon chair, "The frontier is not very peaceful right now, and the enemy country is eyeing it. ”

"If the emperor wants to verify whether the three princes are sincere to the Great Calendar and the emperor, he can send the three princes to the frontier to suppress it."

"This time, firstly, it can verify the heartfelt heart of the third prince, and secondly, it can also boost the morale of my generals and deter the enemy country."

When the prince of the dynasty went into battle in person, it was indeed a good way to stabilize the morale of the army.

Su Yansheng's method immediately won the support of the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military forces, and everyone seconded it, even for fear that Emperor Qianling would not agree, so he broke up the benefits and crumpled it, and said it to Emperor Qianling one by one.

Emperor Qianling looked at Su Yansheng with deep eyes, and the corners of his mouth slowly opened a smile of unknown meaning.

Sure enough, Su Yansheng still didn't disappoint him.

"Okay, just as General Su said!"

"Di Luochen received the order, and I immediately appointed you as the general of Zhenxi, and went to the frontier to retreat from the enemy."

"I hope you don't disappoint me and General Su's expectations."
