Chapter 105: The Court Argues
When Fang Jinsheng heard this, he turned around and looked back, the handsome and dashing emperor in the past had now become a middle-aged man with a beard to hide his face.
Xu is because he has worked day and night, his face is slightly tired, and he looks like a man in his fifties at the age of forty.
Emperor Hong'an also looked at the young man in front of him, his forehead was full, and his eyebrows and eyes were full of grace, which was similar to when he was young.
However, with that nose and eyes, they are similar to Concubine Zhen.
At just one glance, Emperor Hong'an recognized that this was his beloved son who had not been able to find a trace for many years.
Emperor Hong'an was overjoyed, and he was excited to move forward and want to hug Fang Jinsheng.
Fang Jinsheng was too cold, he took a few steps back, keeping a distance from Emperor Hong'an.
His retreat and the indifference on his face shattered Emperor Hong'an's joy, and Emperor Hong'an said with a wry smile: "After so many years, haven't you forgiven your father?" ”
"Wen Xun doesn't dare!"
"I had a hard time back then!"
"You are the emperor, and you should do what you should do."
Emperor Hong'an looked at Fang Jinsheng with an indifferent face, and his heart was full of grief, "You are the same as Zhen'er, you are a knife-mouthed tofu heart, and the black-clothed man who protected me that day was you!" ”
"I don't know about the man in black."
Fang Jinsheng flatly denied it, his eyes were cold, "Also, you are not qualified to mention my mother's concubine." ”
When Emperor Hong'an heard this, his heart throbbed, "Only you dare to talk to me in this tone, just like the man in black that day." It was only later that I guessed that you might have returned, and I had sent people to look for it these days, but I couldn't find it. You still have me as a father in your heart, and it doesn't matter if you don't admit it. As for Zhen'er, I'm sorry for her, and I'm sorry for you, I'm happy that you're willing to come back now, don't worry, my father will compensate you in the future! ”
"If you really feel guilty, you will avenge her and comfort her spirit in heaven, as for me, I have lived well all these years, and I don't need your compensation."
"Looking for ......"
"Let's not talk about the matter of the mother concubine for the time being, I came back for the princess of Ningguo."
……
After a while, Emperor Hong'an returned to the main hall again and sat on the main seat.
"Let the envoys wait for a long time!" Emperor Hong'an greeted the envoys of Ningguo, "I just heard that there are new clues in the case of the princess being poisoned, and I was in a hurry, so I went to investigate, and now I have found out that the case of the princess's poisoning has nothing to do with Lin Qingyu......"
"Emperor Jin, what do you mean by this?" Song Xu made an anxious voice and aggressively interrupted Emperor Hong'an's words.
Emperor Hong'an looked at him dissatisfied, this envoy was too rude, but he couldn't tear his face with him at this time, "Don't worry, the envoy doesn't worry, I want to introduce someone for you first, and he will explain the reason." ”
"Announce it." Emperor Hong'an said to Guo Fuan, the chief eunuch beside him.
Guo Fuan received the order, stepped forward, and shouted loudly: "His Royal Highness King Xuanqiong is here!" ”
The word King Qiong was like a thunderclap on the ground, shattering the peace of the room.
The ministers were shocked that King Qiong, who had been missing for many years, returned to the palace quietly and brought evidence of Princess Ningguo's case, which was really unexpected!
No wonder the emperor showed a look of ecstasy, many years ago King Qiong was the emperor's favorite candidate for the crown prince, I didn't know that King Qiong would come back at this time......
's courtiers remembered the emperor's favor for Concubine Zhen's mother and son many years ago, and they couldn't help but be a little worried.
The heir to the throne has been established for many years, the queen is virtuous and virtuous, although His Royal Highness the prince has no great merit or great fault, and the prince is virtuous, from the advice like a stream, the ministers are also satisfied with the prince, and now that King Qiong is back, I don't know if it will have an impact on the prince's position.
And Ning Guo was wondering what evidence the so-called His Royal Highness King Qiong would come up with to prove Lin Qingyu's innocence.
As the figures outside the hall gradually approached, everyone's thoughts were also interrupted.
Fang Jinsheng stepped on the light, and the bearing on his body bloomed since he entered the hall.
It's just that his bearing is not as expensive as that of the royal family and nobles, but has more of the slaughtering spirit of the people in the rivers and lakes.
Fang Jinsheng gave a salute to Emperor Hong'an, and Emperor Hong'an hurriedly said: "The emperor doesn't have to be polite!" ”
With a smile on his face, he almost went down to help Fang Jinsheng up in person.
After the two sides greeted each other, Song Xu asked impatiently: "I don't know what Emperor Jin means?" And where is the so-called evidence? ”
Fang Jinsheng walked in front of Song Xu, and said casually: "The envoy is afraid that his eyes are not good when he is old, can't you see such a big person as this king?" ”
Song Xu was blocked, and suddenly became angry, no man wants to be said to be old, not to mention that he is only in his early thirties and in the prime of life, this King Qiong said that his old eyes were dizzy and really humiliated him.
At this moment, seeing that Song Xu was in a hurry, Dajin Junchen was overjoyed.
Earlier, the envoys of Ningguo were still modest and polite, but since the news of the new emperor of Ningguo ascended the throne, these envoys have been a little ostentatious.
Especially this Song Xu, I couldn't get used to Song Xu's arrogant posture earlier, but they were not easy to talk because of their feelings, and now His Royal Highness King Qiong has choked Song Xu enough, which can be regarded as giving them a breath.
Emperor Hong'an smiled secretly in his heart, "Ahem! Don't be rude when looking for a child. ”
Although it is blame, there is no tone of blame.
Fang Jinsheng smiled unabated, "I don't know if the envoy witnessed Lin Qingyu poisoning the princess of your country in the sobering soup?"
Song Xu could see that Emperor Jin loved this King Qiong very much, and it was not easy to make trouble on the spot, and when he heard King Qiong ask such a question, he had to press his temper and replied: "No, but according to ......."
"You didn't see it! What a coincidence! Envoy, you don't know yet, this king was also in Juxian Tower at that time, but this king didn't see Lin Qingyu poisoned! ”
"It can't be!" Song Xu said affirmatively.
"Oh!" Fang Jinsheng stared at Song Xu, "It seems that the envoy is more sure of the situation at that time than this king!" ”
Without even thinking about it, he said with certainty that he couldn't appear in Juxian Tower, either Song Xu had seen him elsewhere that day, or he knew everything about Juxian Tower.
Obviously, the former is impossible, he stayed in the Fang Mansion all day that day and didn't see outsiders, so it seems that this Song Xu is very suspicious.
And after hearing about the accident, he quickly rushed to Juxian Tower, faster than the doctor, maybe Ning Chuxi's poisoning was really related to him......
"No, I didn't mean that!" Song Xu secretly screamed and hurriedly denied it.
Fang Jinsheng smiled lightly, "May I ask what that means!" ”
"This ......" Song Xu felt that King Qiong was prepared, and he was clever in his tongue, and now he was talking too much and making mistakes.
"It's not a secret, Lin Qingyu is the righteous sister of this king, then the king of Japan just went to Juxian Tower to find her, and he didn't want her to have dinner with the princess of your country, Miss Lin Si, so this king stayed and used some together. The princess doesn't know my identity, only when I am the righteous brother of Qingyu, we talked very happily during the banquet, and then the princess of your country was drunk, or this king proposed to prepare a bowl of sobering soup for her, this king also saw with his own eyes that no one in the house was poisoned, I don't want the princess to be poisoned and unconscious, the righteous sister sent someone to find a doctor, this king is a man after all, although I am as innocent as ever, but this king is afraid of damaging the princess's reputation and had to leave first, I don't want my sister to be wrongfully imprisoned, I searched for three days and did not find the murderer, so I had to come to clarify the matter. There is someone else who murdered the princess, and the righteous sister Qingyu is really wronged! ”
Fang Jinsheng's words explained the reasons clearly, and everyone was thoughtful.
Song Xu obviously didn't believe it, "Since King Qiong said that he had been to Juxian Tower, is there any evidence?"
"This king dares to come out to testify, naturally there is evidence, Bai Feng!"
Ding Baifeng had been waiting outside the hall, and when he heard Fang Jinsheng's voice, he took a man who looked like a merchant into the hall and saluted one by one.
"Tell the truth what you saw in Juxian Tower three days ago." Fang Jinsheng said in a cold voice.
The man knelt on his knees and said respectfully: "The grass people are a businessman, the shop happens to be behind the Juxian Building, the grass people are taking care of the business in the store, and they happened to see a figure jumping down from the second floor of the Juxian Building, that person is His Royal Highness King Qiong, at that time the grass people were puzzled, and soon heard that Princess Ning Guo was poisoned and unconscious in the Juxian Building. What the grass people said was the truth, and the grass people didn't know anything else. ”
Fang Jinsheng walked up to Song Xu and asked in a cold voice, "How is it, what else do the envoys want to ask?"
Song Xu still didn't believe it, this King Qiong suddenly ran out to exonerate Lin Qingyu, and found a witness, with King Qiong's power, it is not difficult to let people give false testimony.
His heart is clear, but he can't say it explicitly.
But just let go of this matter, he couldn't explain it to Ning Guangfan, how could this be good!
Song Xu let it out, "Since His Royal Highness King Qiong can prove that Lin Qingyu was not poisoned, what if the person who poisoned it is King Qiong himself?" ”
As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar, and all the ministers of Dajin were dissatisfied with Song Xu's words to denounce it.
Fang Jinsheng stared at Song Xu with a smile, "Well, this idea is very novel, why don't you tell me why this king poisoned the princess of Ning Kingdom?" Do you want to provoke a war and annex Ningguo, or do you want to send someone to Ningguo to seek peace! ”
Song Xu was dumbfounded, Fang Jinsheng's sarcasm made his old face red, they provoked the last war, and they were the ones who sued for peace, "This, this ......"
Fang Jinsheng's eyes were like sharp knives, slashing at Song Xu one by one, "It's better to make an assumption from this king, Song envoy, you poisoned the princess before, but it takes a certain amount of time for the poisonous hair, so the princess will be poisoned when she gathers in the immortal building, and then Song envoy, you rush over and shout to catch the thief, this is really a good show!" ”
Song Xu was startled when he heard this, and he hurriedly said, "You, you are spewing blood!" ”
Fang Jinsheng's eyebrows turned slightly, and he said meaningfully: "It turns out that Song Envoy still knows the word blood spewing people!" That's great! ”
Song Xu choked, he was defeated today, and he knew in his heart that he was wrong for what he said, so he looked at Ning Guanghuan for help.
Ning Guanghuan sensed Song Xu's eagerness, he gave Song Xu a slightly calm look, stepped forward and arched his hand: "His Royal Highness King Qiong is joking." However, since King Qiong testified, it is not good for us to continue to wronged Miss Lin Si. However, the royal sister had an accident in Dajin, and asked Emperor Jin to catch the murderer as soon as possible and give me an explanation to Ning Guo! ”
"Good! King Jing is really sensible! I will surely catch the poisoner and give you an explanation. Emperor Hong'an was overjoyed, "Someone is coming!" Spread my will to release Lin Qingyu! ”
Guo Fuan received the order and immediately sent people to the execution ground.
Song Xu originally wanted Ning Guanghuan to continue to make trouble, but he didn't want the situation to change abruptly, thinking of Ning Guangfan's secret purpose, he could only secretly feel anxious.
On the execution ground, Qingyu knelt with Yuan Xi, waiting for the arrival of three o'clock in the afternoon.
