Chapter 114: Muddy Waters
"I said, Thirteenth Prince, you just do it and watch it, can't you think of a way?" If this continues, it is a question of whether they can leave the Eastern Zhou alive.
I just went out for a trip, and I felt the countless eyes and knives of the kind people in the capital and all kinds of vague murderous aura, even a killing god like Helian Fei, who licked blood on the tip of the knife all day long, couldn't help but feel a trace of pressure.
As a result, the poor General Helian could only return to the post house with his servants in a gloomy manner, and did not dare to go out again behind closed doors.
Originally, they were all planning to leave the Eastern Zhou, but who knew that there would suddenly be such a trouble, the Northern Desert and the Eastern Zhou were really born to rush, and they really shouldn't have come to the Eastern Zhou! Helian Fei thought resentfully in his heart.
Wan Yan Wu had a cold face and a light expression, glanced at He Lianfei, who was sitting in the chair below with a bitter face, and said lightly: "What can I do?" Go outside and tell them that Mo Wuxian was assassinated and fell into a coma and has nothing to do with our Northern Desert? Even if we talk about it, do you think the people of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty will believe it? ”
In fact, to be honest, Wan Yan Wu didn't believe that such a scourge as Mo Wuxian would be assassinated to the point of coma so easily.
To a greater extent, Wan Yan didn't guess that he should have indeed been assassinated, but now the news of the coma should have been deliberately released by him, with the purpose of planning to take advantage of this incident to trap the Northern Desert, or the Eastern Zhou Emperor. I have to say that it is not unreasonable for Mo Wuxian to say that Yan Wu and he are the same kind of people. Neither of these men is a good bird.
Helian Fei sighed, he thought that he was not as good as Yan Wu when dealing with this kind of thing, so he could only ask a little anxiously: "Then we can't do anything if we stay in the post house like this?" ”
"If General Helian is really not at ease, he will send a letter to the Emperor of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty to ask for his resignation." Wan Yan stood up indifferently and walked away, leaving only the helpless Helian Fei alone. He doesn't care what happens to the left and right.
Looking at Yan Wu's departing back, Helian Fei, who had nothing to do, could only sigh and turn around to write the excerpt of his resignation.
And equally painful is the unlucky Eastern Zhou Emperor who stole chickens and rice
。 As soon as the matter came out, the desk of the Eastern Zhou Emperor was piled up with countless folds asking for the life of the king side by side, and the Eastern Zhou Emperor who saw it dropped countless porcelain banknotes, and he was so angry that he almost failed to come to the court.
So much so that when he went to court the next day, he didn't have a good look on his face, and the ministers in the court who were depressed all trembled and didn't dare to say much, for fear that if he didn't say a word, he would anger Long Yan and lose his official position.
"Your Majesty, the Northern Desert dares to murder His Royal Highness the King of the Side by Side in the territory of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, this is clearly to provoke the majesty of my Eastern Zhou Dynasty, and Wei Chen implores His Majesty to detain the Northern Desert and the pro-envoy to seek justice for His Royal Highness the King of the Side by Side!" The people of Yushitai are really warriors who are not afraid of death, and when they clearly saw the stinky face of the Eastern Zhou Emperor, they dared to step forward and pull out the tiger's beard.
Looking at the old man with a straight face below, with a lot of gushing meaning, all the ministers gave this warrior a thumbs up in their hearts, and in everyone's hearts, it was really the brothers of Yushitai who were the most upright.
After the imperial doctor, who was over half a hundred years old and already trembling, finally burst into tears, and was so excited that he almost couldn't stand on his feet after saying these words, the Eastern Zhou Emperor sat in the dragon chair without saying a word, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Beimo's move is simply not to take my Eastern Zhou in his eyes, and the minister seconded it." Another young official, who was at the bottom of the line, stepped forward. The childish face is full of righteous indignation. It can be seen that this child has just entered the officialdom, has not been impregnated by officialdom, and still maintains a reckless but still upright original heart. It's a pity, I don't know how long this kind of big dye vat can be maintained in officialdom.
"The king has worked hard for the country and the people all his life, but now he has been assassinated and unconscious, and the minister also implores His Majesty to give justice to His Royal Highness!" Someone else stepped forward.
"The minister seconded the proposal."
"The minister also seconded the proposal."
。。。。。
So Hulaladi, most of the courtiers below knelt down, all of them were people who petitioned for Mo Wuxian, and the only remaining people looked left and right, and also knelt down. The Eastern Zhou Emperor sitting on it looked at the courtiers kneeling below, the hands hidden under the dragon robe were slightly trembling with anger, and his eyes stared sharply at the people below, the lesson of asking for life is not only the people who are good friends with Mo Wuxian, but also many of the Eastern Zhou Emperor's own people, but even if this group of old foxes is not kind to the Eastern Zhou Emperor's intentions towards Mo Wuxian, and even if they want to get rid of it, they don't dare to go against the people's hearts at this moment, so they can only follow the general trend and kneel down to ask for their lives.
The Eastern Zhou Emperor above didn't say a word, and the courtiers below naturally could only continue to kneel and dare not say much, and after a long time, everyone heard the Eastern Zhou Emperor above say lightly: "After I find out this matter, I will naturally give you Aiqing an explanation, and this matter will be discussed later." ”
"This..." When the courtiers below heard the words of the Eastern Zhou Emperor, they were a little commotion, and they exchanged their thoughts with the people around them, and everyone hesitated.
"How can I say that Beimo also made a special trip to make friends with my Eastern Zhou this time, if there is no evidence, just relying on some market rumors to detain people, it is inevitable that I will lose my Eastern Zhou bearing. This matter needs to be strictly investigated. Emperor Dong Zhou continued.
"Yes." The Eastern Zhou Emperor's words have reached this level, and most of the courtiers below are also a little bit of a look, and they know what it means to stop in moderation, and they will accept it when they see it, and they have responded.
"A thorough investigation of this matter will be handed over to Dali Temple and the Criminal Department, and it is important to find out as soon as possible whether this matter has anything to do with the Northern Desert."
The director of Dali Temple and the secretary of the criminal department are all proper people of the Eastern Zhou Emperor, and this matter is handed over to them to investigate, no matter what happens, this matter will not have anything to do with the Eastern Zhou Emperor.
However, the idea is beautiful, but the reality is cruel, the Eastern Zhou Emperor wants to take himself out, but also to see if others agree, obviously, Mo Wuxian's subordinates will not let him go so easily, Xiao Pei exchanged a look with the generals around him, raised his head, and said in a solemn voice: "Your Majesty, the ministers of the Criminal Department and Dali Temple are all civil officials, and they are powerless, and it is dangerous to investigate the assassination of the king side by side, and if you are not careful, I am afraid that your life will be in danger, and the last general will invite herself to go with the two adults, Help the two adults find out about it together! ”
The Eastern Zhou Emperor looked at Pei Liu, who was resolute and did not have the slightest intention of retreating, and secretly scolded him in his heart for being uninteresting, but on his face, he could only put on a look of relief that Aiqing said and was not thoughtful, and said with a smile: "What Aiqing said is very true, according to what Aiqing said, Aiqing will assist." ”
