Zuo Xiang shook his head slightly, "He has something to take a leave of absence and can't come back a year ago." ”

Li Xing is not here, who is going to deal with the demon of Feng Jiangzhao, do you want him to go into battle in person? Jin Yiyun was about to cry, "Why did Li Xing go here for a long time, did the lower officials send someone to do it for him?" ”

Zuo Xiang smiled, "Why should Lord Jin be so flustered, the saint promised us to find out this case twenty days ago, don't worry." ”

"How can you not be in a hurry? You see that the few people in the prison are almost unable to hold on, if they all die here in Xiaguan...... "Feng Jiangzhao, the commander of the inner guards, Yuan Tiancheng, the chief official of Si Tianjian, Zheng Duchu, the nephew of the right minister, Zheng Kangcong, the third son of Yi Jihou, and He Jiaji, the son of the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites...... No matter which one dies in prison, it is enough for him to drink a pot, especially Zheng Kangcong, if he dies here, the old lady Yiji Hou will have to carry her iron rod to chase him for three streets and discount his legs! Jin Yiyun is really going to cry, these people are infected with erysipelas, what do you want him to do!

"Li Xiang, why don't we ask the Holy Lord for a decree and sentence these interrogations clearly?" Then kill what should be killed, let go of what should be released, in short, you can't die here without knowing it.

Zuo Xiang shook his head, "Before this case is completely investigated, none of them can get out." ”

He understands it, but they have to wait for their lives! Jin Yiyun bowed his hand, "Prime Minister, please hurry up and enter the palace to beg for the saint, seeing that Zheng Duchu is about to be unable to hold on." ”

"I'll go to Tianzhang Pavilion first, and Lord Jin will wait a while."

Seeing Zuo Xiang leave calmly, Jin Yiyun grabbed the hair on his head irritably, wondering if he didn't go directly to face the saint, which one would he go to Tianzhang Pavilion to meet, King Sheng or Right Xiang?

Li Xiran, the left minister, returned to Tianzhang Pavilion and saw that the right minister and King Sheng were both immersed in looking at the excerpts and the spy reports sent up. Lu Zhengqi stood up and saluted Zuo Xiang, "Li Xiang, you are here." ”

The left minister nodded slightly, and the third master and the right minister also raised their heads to greet him. Zuo Xiangjing walked straight up to the third master and said in a low voice, "Lord Wang, can you take a step to speak?" ”

Just this sentence, the ears of the right minister immediately stood up, and seeing that King Sheng was invited to the second floor by Li Xiran to eat tea, his ears couldn't wait to follow.

In the elegant room on the second floor for the elders to rest, Zuo Xiang asked the third master in a low voice, "Lord Wang, is the wood torture still in Beijing?" ”

The third master shook his head, "He went out of Beijing this morning to do business." ”

As for what to do, there is no need for the third master to explain to Zuo Xiang.

Zuo Xiang smiled bitterly, "Lord Wang, Xi Ran won't be polite to you." The Holy Admiral Feng Jiangzhao was sent to Dali Temple, and Xi Ran and Lord Jin tried the case 20 days ago. Although the facts of the case have been clear after the hard work of the first half month of Tuomu's execution, there are still many details that need to be verified and scrutinized. The two of us have concluded the trial day and night, and we can also complete the trial and submit it to the Holy Emperor as scheduled. However, the physical condition of Zheng Duchu and others is deteriorating day by day, and a few of them are afraid that they will not survive the day the case is closed. ”

When the third master heard this, he understood Li Xiran's purpose for looking for him, but the third master didn't talk, just listened quietly.

Zuo Xiang continued, "No matter which of these people died in Dali Temple in vain, it is enough to drink a pot of ridicule." That's why Xi Ran came to the prince to discuss with you what to do. ”

The third master said quietly, "Lord Li should go directly to ask the saint about this matter, not Xiao Wang." ”

Zuo Xiang sighed, "Do you think the Holy Lord will agree?" ”

Among those people in the prison is erysipelas, if they want to live, they have to be given the pill refined by Ji Jingqing, which the Holy Lord is taking. In this way, according to the symptoms of Jianlong Dilong's physical discomfort some time ago, people with a heart knew that he had also been infected with erysipelas because of taking Yuan Tiancheng's pill, which was detrimental to Tianwei. Moreover, Yuan Tiancheng's elixir was refined from infant blood, and once this news was used by someone with ulterior motives, the consequences would be unimaginable.

There is no impermeable wall in the world, and if you want to keep these news from being known, it is the easiest thing to let these people die in prison! Compared with the stability of the country, the death of more than a dozen noble children is not a big deal at all, so Zuo Xiang, who is well versed in Emperor Jianlong's temperament, did not go directly to Yishou Palace to beg for fun.

The third master asked, "How is Feng Jiangzhao's situation?" ”

"It's very bad, according to Xi Ran, he is already at the end of the crossbow, the most serious one." Left Xiangdao.

The third master looked at the rows of files and thought for a moment before he analyzed, "It is said that Feng Jiangzhao is a person who practices martial arts, and his body should be better than ordinary people, why do you think he is the first one who can't hold on?" ”

Zuo Xiang also considered this issue, "because he consumed the most pills of all people." ”

The third master also agreed with this, "Not only that, he should have noticed that there was a problem with the pill before others, so he stopped taking the medicine." Because of the case of Qin Mingshan, the saint lost his trust in him, although the saint sent him to guard the Qin Mingshan, but he could not access the pill refined by Ji Jingqing, so he could not take the new pill, which led to his physical condition deteriorating. Others may have eaten less, or they may have not been able to seal Jiang Zhaochang for a long time, so they look better than him. ”

"What do you mean?" Zuo Xiang is not sure.

The third master nodded, "Judging from the current situation, continuing to let them take the pill should be the safest way to delay the army." ”

Dali Temple has seized a lot of pills, if it is true that as King Sheng said, these people began to deteriorate rapidly because they stopped pills, then continuing to let them take pills can last longer. During this time, he and Jin Yiyun investigated the case and reported it to the Holy God as soon as possible, and what to do next, it was the Holy Lord's final say. These people have been taking the pill for several years, and if they take a few more days, it is a good thing if they can control the deterioration, and if they can't control it, it won't be bad. Therefore, as King Sheng said, this is indeed the safest way at present.

Zuo Xiang nodded and said sincerely, "Thank you Lord Wang, Xi Ran will do it." ”

The third master said in a low voice, "My lord will find a way to let Feng Jiang Zhao see the saint and make him believe that Ji Jingqing's elixir is really useful, so that it will be easy to pry his mouth open." ”

Feng Jiangzhao hadn't seen Emperor Jianlong for many days, so even if he heard from the spies in the palace about Emperor Jianlong's recent situation, he wouldn't believe it all, so letting him see it with his own eyes was more useful than anything else.

This is easy to do, without further ado, after thanking the third master, he is ready to leave Tianzhang Pavilion. The right minister stood up, "Master Li, please take a step to speak." ”

Yes, he just asked the third master to borrow a step to speak, and now that it is his turn to be invited, the left minister bowed slightly, and followed the right phase Cheng Wujie to the second floor. Lu Zhengqi raised his head and looked at the backs of the two great rulers of the dynasty, and then looked at King Sheng, who was sitting back in his seat, and sighed in his heart that he didn't know when, the limelight of the right minister had been completely suppressed by King Sheng.

It's really, really, really.

After going up to the second floor, after the right minister invited the left minister to sit down, he asked directly about the situation in prison, "Lord Li, how are my son and Du Chu doing in prison?" ”

Cheng Wujie didn't go around the bend anymore, thinking about what he had heard. Zuo Xiang smiled, "I haven't been promoted to the court for a few days, and I don't know the situation in prison, so I'll ask when I go back, and then give Master Cheng an answer." ”

It's obviously really bad to send him away with this kind of official talk. The right minister couldn't help but become anxious, "Please Lord Li to save Du Chu's life, although this kid is a little stubborn, he is not a big traitor." This love will be remembered in my heart. ”

Zuo Xiang smiled, "Lord Cheng is more concerned about the safety of Du Chu than Xianwu, which is really moving." ”
