Whether you believe it or not, the butler's words have made Sun Xiangyu have no face to stay here again and again, because of what happened to her childhood, she was already sensitive, and she would be flustered if something was wrong, let alone at this time......

She could clearly feel that something had changed.

In the council hall of the Yan Palace, the incident that had been shelved for many days was put back on the charter.

The first is the assassination and death of Tuoba Sheng, the sixth prince of Liangguo.

The second is the fact that the dragon robe is stamped with the private seal of the eldest prince Yan Zheng.

Both things are inseparable from Yan Zheng.

Under the earth-shattering news that his beloved son died in another country, the loss of another state in the territory is no longer the most important thing.

After the news was transmitted back to the Liang Kingdom, the ministers of the Liang Kingdom were ordered to immediately rush to the Yan Kingdom as quickly as possible.

Now in the council hall, it is the time when the two sides are facing each other, and no one in the court is willing to take a step back.

The minister of Liangguo was imposing, and his spit was flying: "My Liangguo has been friendly with Yan for a long time, and the princes of the two countries are even more close to each other, it is precisely because of this that our Lianghuang can rest assured that the six princes will be handed over to your country, but now, the six princes have been poisoned, and only one body remains, is this what Yan Guo wants to give to my country?!" ”

After a burst of subdued accusations of oppression, the hall was silent.

The ministers looked at each other, and finally set their eyes on Emperor Yan.

This matter is related to the eldest prince, and it is really not something that these courtiers can put their beaks in.

Now let's see what Your Majesty means.

Emperor Yan pondered for a while: "Your envoy is angry, this incident is indeed the poor protection of my Yan Kingdom, so that the tragedy happened, but before the arrival of your envoy, I ordered someone to investigate this matter, but all along, the murderer has been hidden extremely hidden, and it has not been determined where to hide." ”

The courtiers of Liangguo were aggressive, pressing step by step: "Are you not sure where the murderer is hiding, or do you not want to arrest him?" ”

"What do you mean, envoy?" Emperor Yan's face sank: "The sixth prince was killed in Cheng'an, and I am also very sad, not to mention that this matter is related to the diplomatic relations between the two countries, and your envoy thinks that I will use such a major event to fool people?" ”

The majestic voice exploded in the main hall, making the faces of the envoys of the Liang Kingdom condense slightly, and their eyes were quite solemn.

Obviously, he already knew that what he said earlier touched Emperor Yan's bottom line.

After all, these days, from the news he got, Emperor Yan was really trying his best to investigate this matter, and he never stopped for a moment.

It's just that no results have been reached.

All the evidence points to the eldest prince Yan Zheng, but they all know in their hearts that Yan Zheng will never touch the six princes.

Because, the sixth prince and the fifth prince of Yan Kingdom, Yan Mushan, are good friends, and the two are like siblings, and Yan Zheng is Yan Mushan's eldest brother.

Counting it up, the relationship between the six princes and Yan Zheng is also very close, and if it is discussed, it may become Yan Zheng's help.

In this way, no one wants to cut off his own arms.

"Emperor Yan's words are serious."

The envoy of the Liang Kingdom bowed his hand, and his voice changed: "The meaning of my words is not that the Yan Kingdom is not exhausted, but I am anxious towards His Majesty, and I am heartbroken about the matter of the six princes, and now the truth is not clear, the body of His Royal Highness the prince has not returned, and after the news is returned, it is even more mourning, and I hope that the Yan Emperor will experience the heart of the Liang Emperor's father." ”

This is both reasonable and speechless.

The courtiers looked at each other, and could not say anything against their will.

No matter how aggressive the envoys of the Liang Kingdom are now, the Liang Emperor is also a white-haired person sending a black-haired person, and he has experienced a great sorrow in life.

If they have a bad attitude, they will be too unkind.

Hearing these words, even Emperor Yan couldn't put on a face anymore, the anger in his eyes gradually faded, and his expression returned to normal again.

After all, if something happened to his son in the rest of the country, he would have bitten it, let alone die in such a tragic way.

However, although he thought so in his heart, Emperor Yan couldn't see the reason on his face.

He paused for a moment, and his face softened slightly before he said to the envoy of the Liang Kingdom: "Your Excellency, rest assured, since this matter happened in the territory of the Yan Kingdom, then I will definitely give an explanation to the Liang Emperor." ”

Hearing this, the envoys of the Liang Kingdom finally relieved.

However, after a pause, he said as if inadvertently: "Now that the Great Prince of Yan is still imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison, I don't know what His Majesty Emperor Yan intends to do with him?" ”

As soon as this remark came out.

The hall was silent.

Everyone subconsciously turned to Emperor Yan.

They all knew in their hearts that the existence of that dragon robe had completely touched the bottom line of Emperor Yan.

Sure enough, when he mentioned His Royal Highness the Prince who had been deliberately ignored for half a month again, Emperor Yan's expression instantly became obscure.

Seeing this, the envoy of the Liang Kingdom seemed to realize that he had said the wrong thing, and after calming down his thoughts, he changed his words: "Your Majesty Yanhuang rest assured, I don't mean to ask the eldest prince Xingshi, my majesty and I both believe in the great prince's character, and he will not do such a cruel thing." ”

What good does killing the Six Princes do for Yan Zheng?

It turns out that not only will it not be beneficial, but it will plunge it into an ambush on all sides.

Although Yan Zheng is not smart, he is definitely not stupid.

Such a detrimental act will definitely not be his act.

Hearing this, Yan Zheng's expression did not become good-looking, but the heart that had been hanging in the air finally fell back to its original place.

After all, if Liang Guo insisted that Yan Zheng did the assassination, then he ......

The envoy observed Emperor Yan's facial expression, and saw that his demeanor did not reveal too much meaning, and he muttered for a while: "Your Majesty Emperor Yan, I wonder if I can go to the Heavenly Prison to visit His Royal Highness the Great Prince?" As for the occurrence of that incident, if you listen to His Royal Highness the Grand Prince from beginning to end, you may have unexpected gains. ”

This request is reasonable.

Just to meet the suspect.

Besides, under his nose, Emperor Yan didn't think that the envoys of the Liang Kingdom could make any unexpected happens.

So, after thinking about it for a while, Emperor Yan made a decision: "It is not impossible for the envoy to ask for it, since this is the case, I will let Lu Guogong guide you the way." ”

It is a great honor for the dignified grandfather to lead the way for the little envoy.

Emperor Yan took this opportunity to show that he was really concerned about this matter and was not fooling around.

After hearing this, Lu Guogong calmly stepped out of the queue and bowed his hand to Emperor Yan, who was sitting on the dragon chair, and said, "The minister obeys the order." ”

Seeing this, the envoy bent down and retreated.

In the face of such a major event, he didn't want to delay for a moment.

If the cause of the death of His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince is not known, his position will become extremely passive.

Lu Guogong led people all the way to the prison.

After the jailer saw Lu Guogong, he hurriedly knelt on the ground and saluted: "I've seen Grandpa Guo." ”

"Get up." Lu Guogong bowed: "I am ordered by Your Majesty to bring the envoys of Liangguo to visit the eldest prince, and please open the door." ”

Hearing this, the jailer did not hesitate at all, and hurriedly walked into the depths of the prison, and took out the key to open the door neatly.

The cacophony of the key coming into contact with the iron lock instantly attracted Yan Zheng, who looked dejected in the cell.

Seeing that the people who came one after another, Yan Zheng was slightly stunned, and let out a hoarse question: "Lu Guogong? ”

"The Great Prince." Said one after another: "On the orders of His Majesty, the minister brought the envoys of the Liang Kingdom to meet His Royal Highness, at this time the people have been brought, the ministers will wait outside, if the prince has something, just call the ministers." ”

With that, he glanced at the envoy of the Liang Kingdom with an expressionless face, then turned around and walked out of the cell without hesitation, leaving the other two alone.

After the people left, Yan Zheng restrained the emotions in his eyes, and in a daze, he said tentatively: "The envoy of the Liang Kingdom...... Emperor Liang sent you? ”

That's a strange question.

Since he is an envoy of the Liang Kingdom, who else can support him except the Liang Emperor?

However, the envoy was not surprised, and did not shy away from looking directly into Yan Zheng's eyes: "It was Emperor Liang who sent me." ”

Hearing this, Yan Zheng pursed his lips, unable to tell whether he was relieved or lost.

However, the envoy paused, and then lowered his voice and said, "But I am...... Jiang Taishi's people. ”

Hearing the words 'Jiang Taishi', Yan Zheng, who was originally depressed, suddenly came to his senses, subconsciously raised his head and looked out, and saw that no one was paying attention to this, so he explained very quickly:

"The death of the sixth prince has nothing to do with me, and I hope that Your Excellency will convey this to Taishi Jiang in its original form."

The envoy's face was solemn: "The Taishi naturally believes in His Royal Highness, but Emperor Liang doesn't believe it, since he heard the bad news, Emperor Liang is furious every day, and not long ago he accidentally learned that this matter is related to His Royal Highness, and ordered me to come to Cheng'an...... Find a way to make His Royal Highness pay for the lives of the six princes. ”

As soon as these words came out, Yan Zheng was shocked into a cold sweat.

Jiang Taishi is a person from the Liang Kingdom, once he makes the Liang Emperor unhappy, then his existence ......

Thinking of this, Yan Zheng hurriedly said: "Your Excellency, my alliance with Jiang Taishi is still there. ”

"Since the prince of the Jin Kingdom came to Cheng'an, I have ordered someone to assassinate her several times, but each time in vain."

"And my father's mind is difficult to discern, and he deliberately let the prince of Jin State live in the Lanxin Mansion, on the surface, I really can't find a chance to start."

"However, even so, my idea of alliance with Jiang Taishi has never changed, and I hope that Your Excellency will solve my doubts and how to do it at this time."

The envoy said: "As long as the prince of Changrong dies, the predicament of the eldest prince can be solved." ”

Yan Zheng tightened his jaw: "Your Excellency, what do you mean by this?" ”

"Now His Royal Highness the Great Prince is in a dilemma, my family master has begun to doubt the sincerity of His Royal Highness the Prince's alliance with him, and His Majesty Emperor Yan is bent on your life."

"Your Highness should know in your heart that the Taishi is loyal to Emperor Liang, and once His Majesty Emperor Liang issues a clear order, even the Taishi must obey the order."

"But as long as you use Qi Changrong's life to curry favor with Taishi or Emperor Liang, the latter will not regard you as a thorn in the flesh."

Hearing this, Yan Zheng couldn't help but shudder.

He understood.

In other words, he must take practical actions to show his determination to ally with Jiang Bowen.

Otherwise, Jiang Bowen would no longer bother to say something for him in front of Emperor Liang.

That's when he really got into a desperate situation.

Once Emperor Liang was bent on his own life, he really couldn't be sure that his father would save him.
