Chapter 123: What are you making a big fuss about?
Xiao Mochen's steps were extremely fast, as if he wanted to reach the council hall as quickly as possible to figure out what was going on. He was holding Su Wan's hand and gradually increasing the force, Su Wan felt a little painful, but it was inconvenient to disturb his mood at the moment, so he stepped up and followed him almost at a trot.
She knew that Xiao Mochen was probably also very uncomfortable at this time.
In the council hall, the Yellow Emperor stood beside the throne with a face full of anger, looking condescendingly at the kneeling Turm and Fu Yanran who were tied up separately at the foot of the steps.
Old General Fu looked at his precious granddaughter kneeling on the ground with a sad face, and said in a trembling tone: "Yanran, what happened, why did you get involved with this kind of beast!" ”
Fu Yanran has been speechless since the moment they found out. Although she was a sharp-toothed and proud girl, it was the first time she had seen the deep disappointment in her grandfather's eyes and the murderous aura from the emperor. After all, she was only a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl, and she couldn't digest this emotion at all.
Turm heard Old General Fu call him a brute, snorted coldly, and said with his eyebrows raised: "What nonsense are you talking about this old thing, I just met the side concubine by chance, just say a few words casually, what are you making a fuss about?" ”
Turm was able to say such things with his mouth open, and he was obviously going to be a scoundrel. He had already understood that he had recognized the wrong person, but because neither he nor Fu Yanran had any information on them, he would not be convicted of the crime of stealing state secrets.
The account in his heart is very clear, anyway, he insists that he and Fu Yanran are just in a fornicating relationship, men and women take advantage of each other, anyway, nothing substantive has happened, he is an alien khan, just apologize and pat his ass and leave, as for what will happen to the ruined Fu Yanran in the future, it is not within his consideration.
"Where's the information you just said, and what's going on?" The emperor looked at him like a torch and said word by word. The emperor is not interested in other things, but when it comes to the so-called intelligence, it is a big problem! Especially Xiao Mochen's current control of the various important tasks in the empire, if Fu Yanran got any information from him and leaked it, the consequences would be unimaginable.
After all, Turm was young, and he was stabbed by the sharp eyes of the old emperor who had deciphered the facts, and he felt uncomfortable, but he still said with a strong face: "What information? I'm flirting with Little Beauty, she's all I want. ”
"What are you if you swear words!"
Turm was kicked several meters away, and red blood oozed from the corners of his mouth, but he still didn't admit it, and said: "Okay, I slighted your granddaughter, you kicked me, and the two of us were even." Anyway, nothing really happened, and if you treat me like this again, it won't sound good to get out. ”
The emperor closed his eyes, as if trying his best to suppress the anger in his heart, and said slowly: "My youngest daughter, Princess Linglong of the Empire, disappeared during the time when you killed the guards and disappeared tonight, and you will definitely not be able to escape from it. ”
Turm thought of the scene where Xiao Linglong jumped off the cliff, although he was a little weak-hearted, he still said stiffly: "I killed the guard because he was too good at doing things, so he had to follow me to relieve himself, I was so angry that I killed someone, in our Cangyuan country, it is normal for people to be disobedient and killed." As for your little princess, I have never heard of or seen it, and a girl can rely on me if she runs away? ”
Turm took it for granted, he didn't believe that he would be hurt in any way without any real evidence.
The emperor's eyes opened suddenly, and a pair of old pupils burst out with strong hatred and murderous aura, like a hurricane, blowing away all Turm's anger, and said coldly: "Take a foreign death row prisoner to death row, and try it again tomorrow!" ”
Frightened and paralyzed, Turm allowed the guards next to him to lift him up from both sides and take him to death row.
Seeing that Turm had left, General Fu knelt beside Fu Yanran with a "plop", kowtowed to the emperor a few times, and said sadly: "Please Your Majesty give the old minister the death penalty, the old minister is useless, the godson has no way, it is all the sin of the old minister!" ”
Seeing that the minister who had always relied on him was still so embarrassed, the old emperor was even more annoyed in his heart, and he closed his eyes and didn't say a word.
"Grandpa...... It's not me, it's really not me. It wasn't until the old general Fu made a shocking kowtow that Fu Yanran seemed to come back from his surprise, hugged the old general's arm lying on the ground, and said intermittently: "I don't know why he came over, and he still has to hug me, I can't break free, I'm scared ......"
Old General Fu looked at his precious granddaughter with a painful look, felt a heart-digging pain, and touched Fu Yanran's hair with trembling hands.
The prince had been standing by and watching the changes, and when he saw that the time had come, he hurriedly stood up and said: "Father, the son thinks that there must be something strange about this matter, so he has just come up with some clues, but because the consequences are too serious if it is confirmed, he is still thinking about whether to say it." ”
"But it doesn't hurt to say it." The old emperor sat heavily on his throne, slowly rubbed his temples, and said tiredly. So many things happened on this day, he is already old, where can he stand it?
"Erchen also doesn't believe that the granddaughter of the old general Fu will do such an unkind and unjust thing." The prince glanced at Fu Yanran, who was crying with pear blossoms and rain, and still felt a little sorry for the beauty, but after a change of words, he said sharply: "However, if all this is instructed by King Chen to do it, then it all makes sense!" ”
Fu Yanran's friendship with Xiao Mochen has always been praised, and the old emperor naturally understands it. So if Xiao Mochen really instructed Fu Yanran to do something, Fu Yanran would definitely be impossible to refuse.
"What nonsense are you talking about! What's the matter with King Guan Chen! As soon as Fu Yanran heard that the prince was going to lead the water of disaster to Xiao Mochen, her emotions became excited again, and she struggled to pounce.
Old General Fu hugged his granddaughter tightly and tried to control her. The crime of disgrace in front of the palace is not small, and he doesn't want his granddaughter to be blamed again. At this time, there is no evidence yet, so it is better to wait for more evidence to appear.
The crown prince was not affected, and continued to say calmly: "King Chen has always been able to come up with good countermeasures that others can't think of recently, and the strange thing is that his countermeasures were proposed tonight, and they were known by Cangyuan Kingdom the next day. Tonight, King Chen is the commander-in-chief of the army of the bonfire conference, but the caretaker Turm still lost it, and actually let the royal sister disappear from the venue. Everyone knows that the most trusted person of the imperial sister is King Chen himself. ”
Speaking of which, the prince admired himself a little, and he was able to think of such a strategy. He doesn't care if Xiao Mochen has treason or not, all he cares about is whether he can finally ascend to the throne!
When the emperor heard the prince's words, the expression on his face changed again and again, and he slapped the armrest of the throne and said sharply: "Why hasn't King Chen arrived yet!" ”
"Father, the son is here!" As soon as Xiao Mochen entered the hall, he heard the emperor's angry shouting, although he secretly screamed in his heart, but he still responded in a deep voice.
"Don't kneel yet!" The emperor's eyes widened, and he shouted.
Xiao Mochen did not hesitate and immediately knelt down. Seeing this, Su Wan, who was behind, also knelt behind him, looking at the front a little nervously.
The prince smiled and said, "Since everyone is here, the sons and daughters will not say anything more, and the father will directly interrogate King Chen." ”
Xiao Mochen bowed his head slightly, knowing in his heart that it must be the crown prince who was talking nonsense in front of the emperor again. As usual, he speculated that the emperor would be able to see through it at a glance, but at this moment, the emperor was upset and might have fallen into his trap.
"Xiao Mochen, now tell me where you hid your imperial sister, and I can still give you a decent way to die." The Emperor's gaze was as sharp as a falcon's gaze on Xiao Mochen, ready to catch him showing uneasiness.
However, Xiao Mochen's expression did not change, raised his head, and said with a cold face: "Erchen doesn't know where the imperial sister is, so he has already arranged it and asked the guards to do their best to find the imperial sister." ”
Old General Fu held Fu Yanran, who was crying into tears, in his arms, and looked at Xiao Mochen, with mixed feelings in his heart. Right now, if he can't help this grandson-in-law tide over the difficulties and let him be condemned to the great crime of punishing the Nine Clans, even if he can survive with his military exploits, Yan Ran is bound to die.
Thinking of this, General Fu didn't intend to protect himself, so he put on an old face and said: "Your Majesty, the old minister knows that you are upset at the moment, but you must not convict the loyal minister because of the unfounded speculation of others!" ”
When the prince saw that General Fu was in opposition to him, he sneered and said: "It is understandable that General Fu is eager to protect his son, but you have been fighting all your life, can you put your personal feelings aside at this moment and put the interests of the country first?" ”
Old General Fu sneered and said, "Although Yanran is my granddaughter, since she is married, she is a member of King Chen's Mansion and has nothing to do with my Fu family. The old minister admonished His Majesty out of consideration for the sake of the empire. King Chen's merits and talents are outstanding, which will definitely cause many people with bad intentions to be red, who knows that this is not a trap. ”
Where is the prince the opponent of the long-experienced General Fu, he was so angry that he opened his mouth, but he couldn't speak.
Su Wan was silent for a long time, and suddenly said, "Father, I have some ideas, I don't know whether to talk about them. ”
Su Wan's sudden opening surprised everyone present, and the emperor's face did not change, and said, "Say it." ”
Su Wan glanced at Fu Yanran, who was shrinking into the arms of the old general Fu, and said: "Yanran and I are like sisters, she abides by her duties in the mansion on weekdays, and has a very good relationship with the prince, I don't believe she will do anything wrong." ”
The emperor frowned and said, "What's the use of not believing you?" There were so many pairs of eyes present, and they all saw her and Turm hugging each other. ”
When Su Wan saw that the emperor said this, he immediately caught the loophole and said, "Then may I ask Your Majesty, how did the two of them hug each other?" Was it a face-to-face hug, or was Turm forcibly hugging her from behind? ”
Although she had the emperor's reward, Fu Yanran was still frightened by this catastrophe, and in the following winter hunting days, she closed her door all day long, and even her grandfather's hunting invitation was politely declined.
Xiao Linglong and Sima Xuan's injuries are not serious, they are almost better under the careful care of the doctors of Tai Hospital, and the two children have established a deep friendship in the past few days, plus they are of similar age, and they always like to travel together and play together.
Xiao Mochen has not been idle these days, he has been following the emperor, starting to deal with the case of Turm's theft of state secrets, and has been negotiating with Cangyuanguo. They directly detained each other's khans, which was a very big deal.
This careful investigation revealed that the new khan was generally not supported in the Cangyuan Kingdom. The old khan was originally going to pass on the throne to his youngest son Tuglang, but before the succession to the throne, he was killed by Turm's conspiracy and succeeded to the throne, and the ministers of the court and the central government were complaining. Although these kingdoms are special in some aspects, this kind of behavior is still very dissatisfying.
In addition, Turm has been adopting a radical strategy of aggression, which is very inconsistent with the current situation of the nomadic Cangyuan country, and this year the country has suffered a natural disaster, which has been a grain of nothing, and the people are panicked, and when they heard that their khans have done such ugly things, they have asked to clear up the relationship.
After all, at this time, Turm's strength in the country was also greatly limited, and under the surging undercurrent, Turm's strength was further squeezed.
Tuglang's son immediately proclaimed himself emperor in Cangyuan, and offered supplies to the empire, saying that Turm, who had committed a great crime, was at the mercy of the empire, hoping to appease the empire's anger.
The old emperor is naturally not a vegetarian, and Turm also did something to seduce the imperial concubine, in order to take care of the face of the heavenly family, although it is inconvenient to say it to the public, but the old emperor is resentful, and sent someone to imprison Turm in the dungeon, and he died inch by inch.
Su Wan seems to be the person who does the least harm and benefits the most, but she doesn't like to go out and show her face, and every day she either recruits cats and dogs in the room, or goes to the hospital to help, and solves the problem of headache and brain fever for some noble women. For a time, Su Wan also gained the goodwill of many people.
On the one hand, because Su Wan was rewarded by the emperor, it naturally made people very willing to get close; On the other hand, Su Wan is kind and has a good affinity.
In this way, although Su Wan's performance was not seen at the bonfire conference, all the royal relatives heard about Su Wan's outstanding contribution to the Turm case, and because she was good at medical skills and kindness, everyone was full of good feelings for this beautiful and low-key and humble Princess Chen, and even rumored that she was the first beauty in the world.
The half-month winter hunting conference ended soon, and the team returned home in a mighty way. The emperor remembered Xiao Mochen's hard work, and in order to sympathize with his efforts, he gave him 200,000 troops to command, and now Xiao Mochen became the person with the most power to dispatch soldiers in the country.
On the first night of returning to King Chen's Mansion, after a simple wash, Su Wan slammed himself on the soft bed, exhaled with satisfaction, and said: "After sleeping on the hard bed board for so many days, it is still comfortable to sleep on your own soft bed in the house."
