Chapter 1219: The Dust Has Settled
After Emperor Xinghua read it, he was immediately furious, and gritted his teeth in front of Dali Siqing: "Good, good, good!" What a Kou family! ”
Dali Siqing lowered his head, he knew that this poison was the poison that the Dou clan planned to poison Emperor Xinghua when he was preparing to break the net. At that time, he was still a young man who had just come out, and he was fortunate to witness a life-and-death struggle between Emperor Xinghua and the Kou clan by his father's side.
His Majesty always thought that he had uprooted the Kou family, but he didn't expect that the Kou family still had a hidden force among the people, if it weren't for the resentment they had against Princess Yide and wanted to take revenge on Princess Yide, he wouldn't have found out so quickly.
Of course, there is also a grace to guide him.
"Let the commander of the forbidden army come to see me!"
This was the last sentence Wen Tingzhan heard when he left the Taiji Palace, and then he went to the General Administration Department to take up his post, and the day was all about the rules, what should he do as always, until Shen Shizheng returned home at the right time, and at this time, His Majesty's people had already taken down the remnants of the Kou clan.
"There are still people in the Kou clan who are still alive, and they are still living under the nose of His Majesty." Even the night shake light received the news in disbelief.
"The ancestors of the Kou family can coerce the Son of Heaven to order the position of the princes, but it is not a waste of fame, nor is it that there is no one in the court." Wen Tingzhan said to the night, "He is a thoughtful and ruthless person, and he happened to meet the emperor in the camp, so he became the Kou family." Such a person is extremely ambitious, he has long wanted to go to the imperial court and replace him, but I am afraid that at that time, the people of Yuan Guoshi did not help him less, but evil prevailed over good, and he did not succeed after all. Since he has the heart of rebellion, he will not think about what will happen after the defeat, and it is reasonable to leave a root for the Kou clan. ”
"Are these people really trying to murder Princess Yide?" Ye Shaoguang felt that the people of the Kou clan had been kicked by a donkey, and they dared to make a move on Princess Yide at this time.
"Why don't you dare?" Wen Tingzhan said with a smile, "When the Kou clan was in full swing, they wanted to be glorious and rich, and this person suddenly fell into the mud from a high place, and naturally there was hatred in his heart. It's just that Princess Yide has been in the princess's mansion before, and there are groups of slaves in and out, their Kou clan has declined, and there is no way to start, this Princess Yide finally went to Ciming Zhai to cultivate, how could they let go of this opportunity to vent their anger? ”
"But I won't have to wait until now...... "Princess Yide arrived at Ciming Zhai last year to cultivate, and it should have been almost half a year," you didn't give them a chance to start. ”
Ye Shaoguang suddenly realized, only in this case can Wen Tingzhan be able to grasp the overall situation. He has been blocking the Kou clan's revenge on Princess Yide, and only recently did he give the Kou clan a chance. Ko's every move is under his control. Therefore, Xi Die was able to save Princess Yide by such a coincidence.
"That's a lot of credit." Dali Siqing took a big advantage this time.
"Hahaha, does the lady regret not letting her husband take credit?" Wen Tingzhan couldn't help but make fun of Ye Shaoguang, "Well, if the lady dislikes her husband and the official title is too low, she will definitely continue to work hard for her husband." ”
Ye Shaoguang rolled his eyes: "Even if you have no official or lord, it makes no difference to me." ”
She doesn't love his power and his identity, it's just him as a person.
The people of the Kou clan were caught, there were always a few people who didn't want to live, Wen Tingzhan had already taken care of these few, so when His Majesty came to interrogate them in person, everything they knew was poured out, and they didn't know about things that were too long ago. But they could know why the Nie family wanted to kill Xi Die, because Xi Die not only ruined their good deeds, but also had a high chance of exposing their whereabouts.
But they killed Xi Die by themselves and were afraid of attracting investigation, because Xi Die had always had a lot of noble children around him to turn around, so they thought of their old friend Nie's family.
If they want to directly say that the Nie family is colluding with them, Emperor Xinghua will definitely suspect them of slander. He had no other confidence in the Nie family's Xinghua Emperor, but he believed that the Nie family would not betray him.
Wen Tingzhan had already guessed Emperor Xinghua's thoughts, so he only asked people to confess to Emperor Xinghua, saying that their Kou family held a handle on the Nie family, which was really true. Because the Kou family poisoned the prince at the beginning, it was indeed the result of the Nie family turning a blind eye. However, they only said that they didn't know about this handle, and only the people of the Nie family knew about it.
At this time, Emperor Xinghua had already asked someone to investigate how the Kou family had extended their poisonous hands to the East Palace. A family with no one in the palace, no matter how powerful he is, this framing of the prince is not something that ordinary people dare to do, let alone be so easy to buy.
At this time, Cui Yi's death was lifted, and it took Fu Lu a full five days to find out all the palace maids who had been in his hands on the prince's clothes, and there were not a few of them who died, including Cui Yi, Cui Yi's body was also salvaged......
As long as the emperor is ruthless to investigate anything, it is not so laborious to change the times, not to mention that many things Wen Tingzhan has arranged step by step, just like a string of beads, Wen Tingzhan has selected each bead and placed it in a specific position, just waiting for the line of Emperor Xinghua to pass through the hole little by little.
Cui Yi's death directly pointed to the queen mother's former head of the chamberlain, but it was already a dead man, and there was no proof of death.
That night, Emperor Xinghua came to the Queen Mother's bedroom at night for the first time in many years, the Queen Mother was chanting scriptures in the Buddhist hall, and Emperor Xinghua waved away the subordinates, only Fulu beside him, and the aunt in charge of the Queen Mother.
Emperor Xinghua looked at the back of the Queen Mother, and he was silent for a long time.
"What does the emperor want to ask the mourning family, just ask, the mourning family will never deceive the emperor." In the end, it was the Queen Mother who opened her mouth first, and the Buddhist beads in her hand were still turning.
"Queen Mother......" Emperor Xinghua called out, with a heavy sigh suppressed in his tone, "I, I want to know what handle the Nie family has in the hands of the Kou family?" Is it worth the Nie family not hesitating to disobey me and protect them without worrying about food and clothing? Or even for them willingly for executioners! ”
The Queen Mother's hand twisting the Buddha beads froze slightly, her eyelids jumped, and the Queen Mother closed her eyes for a long time before she said: "Actually, Your Majesty already has the answer in her heart." ”
"I, I want to hear the Queen Mother in person." Emperor Xinghua said almost word by word.
The Queen Mother's hand trembled, and her lips trembled involuntarily, and it took her a while to suppress the fear in her heart: "Prince, the prince is mourning and not protecting him......"
In a word, all the truth is in it. The lack of protection is already a tactful wording, and it is the truest thing to turn a blind eye to his murder.
