"Now there are rumors in the capital, and the words of the heart are stirring up the wind and rain in the city, and the princess of this world has found out that the rumors are indeed deliberately spread by someone with a heart, and this person is cloudy." Xie Qing said.

Xu Ge's old brows furrowed slightly, "Yun Zhixu? ”

An inconspicuous woman, Xu Ge Lao knows very little.

"Sister Xie is talking about Yun Zhixu, who had a marriage contract with King Zhao in the past?" Xu Qingyan asked.

Xu Qingyan is a wonderful person, she speaks with extreme proportion, Yun Zhixu was originally the young lady of Zhennan Wangfu, but now she is actually spreading rumors behind her back, which is a big crime, so Xu Qingyan did not ask if it was the former Miss Yun family, this is to set aside Yun Zhixu and Zhennan Wangfu.

Xie Qing nodded and said, "Yes, it's her." She was originally the daughter of her father's concubine, but later her virtue was lost, Yun Jin expelled her from the palace, she was no longer the lady of Zhennan Wangfu, and her identity was not worthy of King Zhao, so her marriage with King Zhao was abandoned. It's just that she was infatuated with King Zhao and followed King Zhao into the palace as a nameless concubine. After King Zhao set out on the expedition, she stayed in the palace and served Concubine Ye.

I have sent someone to find out, the rumors originally flowed from the palace, and that source was Yun Zhixu. ”

With such an explanation, Xu Ge Lao was clear, pondered for a moment, and said, "What the princess said is true? Lao Chen is not suspicious of the princess, but the rumors are very important, and the princess really found out, it was indeed spread by Yun Zhixu? ”

Xie Qing nodded heavily, "I'm sure, this is the result of repeated investigations, and Boss Ge can rest assured." ”

"Elder Xu Ge, you also know that even if Yun Zhixu was expelled from the Zhennan Palace, she still has the blood of the Yun family in her bones, and the Zhennan Mansion should not come forward in this matter, so the princess of this world can only come to trouble Elder Xu Ge." Xie Qing said.

Elder Xu Ge twisted his beard, nodded and said, "Don't worry, the princess, and wait for the old minister to verify it, and then tell Your Majesty." ”

Xu Ge was cautious, although Xie Qing repeatedly assured him, but he also had to verify it before telling the emperor.

Xie Qing smiled faintly and said, "Elder Ge is really cautious in doing things, but Xie Qing has something to tell Elder Ge. ”

"Princess, please speak." Elder Xu Ge nodded.

"It is a great crime to spread such condemning words, and it is also a great crime of collaborating with the enemy and treason."

Hearing this, Xu Ge Lao and Xu Qingyan were both shocked, "Collaborate with the enemy and commit treason? What's going on? ”

"Sister Xie, did you find any other news?" Xu Qingyan asked.

Xie Qing replied: "Assassins, rumors, after this series of things happened, the water in the capital became more and more muddy, can the elder know who did this?" ”

"It's Beijung." Xie Qing Zhengse said, "Yun Zhixu is just a small person, and the person who really stirs up the situation behind his back is Beirong." ”

"Beirong!" Xu Ge was shocked, and his eyes widened, "Princess Shizi, is it really Beirong?" Do you have proof? If it is really Beirong's doing, then this matter is not trivial, and the old minister must immediately report to His Majesty! ”

If this matter is really done by Beirong, it will be even more complicated, not only because of the internal dispute in Dayue, but also because of the peace of Dayue. If there is a priority, then this matter must be the most important thing at the moment.

"From the beginning of the assassination of the princess and His Majesty, to the assassination of King Qi and his wife, I suspected that Beirong did it, and I also told His Majesty early, but there has been no evidence in my hand."

Hearing this, Xu Ge said thoughtfully: "Even if there is no evidence, but with such suspicions, this matter has to be cautious." ”

There are many things that are not credible in the absence of evidence.

If it is really Beirong's doing, then this matter involves the security of a country.

"The princess of this world has mentioned this matter to His Majesty a long time ago, but there is no evidence, and His Majesty does not seem to believe it." Xie Qing's tone was quite helpless, "But I received a letter from Shizi's family not long ago, and he mentioned that someone wrote him an anonymous letter to inform him of what happened in the capital. If it weren't for Princess Lin'an and the concubine to stop him, the prince would probably have returned to the capital at this moment. ”

Xie Qing raised his eyes to look at Xu Ge Lao, and said, "Ge Lao thinks that if the princess and the concubine fail to stop the prince, what will be the consequences if the prince leaves the northwest?" ”

Xu Ge Lao's eyes froze: "This is Beirong's calculation, deliberately supporting the prince, once the prince leaves the northwest, Beirong is afraid that he will immediately launch a fierce attack on the northwest." ”

"Not bad." Xie Qing nodded and continued, "The northwest is the strongest barrier between Dayue and Beirong, once the northwest is breached, behind it is the Central Plains of Pingchuan, Beirong people are good at fighting, when the time comes, there will be Beirong spies in the capital to do internal response, the elder Ge thinks that Beirong can break through the capital by then!" ”

Yes! Absolutely!

Among the soldiers and horses of Da Yue, the northwest has the most troops, if even the Northwest Army is unable to stop Beirong, then who else in Da Yue can stop the Beirong army, and when the time comes, it will take the hinterland of the imperial city, and Da Yue is in danger.

Elder Xu Ge was shocked into a cold sweat and almost couldn't sit still.

"Grandpa......" Xu Qingyan hurriedly supported Xu Ge Lao and hurriedly comforted, "Grandpa, don't worry, it's not that time yet, there is still a way." ”

Elder Xu Ge pinched the corner of the table tightly, gritted his teeth and said, "The old minister must not let this happen!" ”

Once Beirong invaded, the Central Plains was in danger. Before the establishment of Dayue, it was a troubled era, after several dynasties, it was difficult to last long, and finally the first emperor unified the Central Plains and established Dayue. The land of the Central Plains has not been cultivated for more than 20 years, and it has just begun to show its complexion, and it must not be slaughtered by foreign tribes at this time.

"Elder Ge is righteous, Xie Qing believes in Elder Ge." Xie Qing nodded at Elder Xu Ge and said with a straight face.

"Princess, thank you for coming to tell me, it's just that this matter is very important, and the minister must think about it, but please rest assured, the minister will never sit idly by." Xu Ge Lao's eyes were firm, and at this time he was still cautious in his words and deeds.

Xie Qing smiled and said, "Xie Qing understands that the pavilion elder has the considerations of the pavilion elder. It's just that some things are far more complicated than you imagined. ”

Xu Ge's face was puzzled: "Princess, what does this mean?" ”

Xie Qing's eyes were slightly dark, and he said: "Xu Ge always thinks that Yun Zhixu is just a woman, she has no power and no power, why did she want to do this thing of collaborating with the enemy and treason?" colluding with Beirong, such a big thing, if it is known, it is not too much to put her to death. ”

Ling Chi's execution was the heaviest punishment for Da Yue, and he would rather be stabbed and killed on the spot than be killed by Ling Chi.

Elder Xu Ge was silent, indeed, collaborating with the enemy and treason is a big crime, and ordinary people would not do such a thing at all.

"In Yun Zhixu's heart, only King Zhao can have such a big weight." Xie Qing Zhengse said, "In this world, apart from herself, only King Zhao can make her willing to do such things." ”

"Yan Yan has heard people say that Miss Yun is infatuated with King Zhao and is willing to do anything for him." Xu Qingyan said to Elder Xu Ge. proves that what Xie Qing said is true.

The affairs between women, Xu Ge Lao may not be clear, but Xu Qingyan knows.

Xu Ge frowned slightly, this matter is complicated enough, I thought it was just a game between the emperor and King Qi, but I didn't expect it to involve Beirong, and now it is even more involved in Prince Zhao. The more people involved, the more difficult things will be, and it is no wonder that Xu Ge will look sad.

Xie Qing stared at him, and said: "So the princess of this world has a bold conjecture, I am afraid that something will happen to the northwest border pass, either King Zhao will fall into the hands of Beirong, or it will be ......."

Xie Qing paused, and did not immediately say his conjecture.

But what she meant, Elder Xu Ge already understood, "The princess thinks that King Zhao and Beirong are ...... Collusion ......"

"I don't rule it out." Xie Qing said lightly.

Zhao Tianlin is the prince, or the prince that His Majesty values the most, if he really collaborates with the enemy and treason, then this matter is really too serious.

Xu Qingyan looked at Xu Ge Lao and saw that his brows were slightly furrowed, and he didn't seem to agree.

"Sister Xie, you can't talk nonsense, after all, King Zhao is the prince of His Majesty, and he is deeply favored by His Majesty, he conspires with Beirong, no matter how you look at it, the possibility is too small......" Xu Qingyan said in the most euphemistic tone.

"What does Xu Ge think?" Xie Qing set his eyes on Xu Ge Lao.

She wanted to know what Xu Ge Lao said, although Xu Qingyan was favored, he was not the one who called the shots after all, and the most important thing was what Xu Ge Lao thought.

Xu Ge thought for a moment, and said: "Princess, to be honest, the old minister doesn't really believe that King Zhao will really collaborate with the enemy and commit treason and destroy his future, but I'm afraid that King Zhao won't be able to do it." ”

Everyone can see that Zhao Tianlin is Emperor Yongqing's favorite prince, as long as he doesn't do big rebellious things, even if he can't be the emperor, he will be the prince of a country in the future, and he will be glorious and noble. Collaborating with the enemy and treason, this is a capital crime, and it is absolutely impossible for the emperor to forgive him, so Xu Ge Lao did not believe that Zhao Tianlin would do this.

Xie Qing smiled faintly and said: "Indeed, collaborating with the enemy and treason is self-destructing the future, if you are not cornered, you will not do it." Xu Ge Lao, did you remember that a year ago, there was also a person who was exposed as collaborating with the enemy and treason, and in the end, he was beheaded all over the house. ”

"You're talking about Li Mu, the former prime minister." Elder Xu Ge replied.

Xie Qing nodded, "Yes, Xu Ge has always been a courtier of two dynasties, and he followed the first emperor when Dayue was not established, and he must also know how Li Xiang followed the first emperor."

At the beginning of the first emperor's uprising, Li Xiang was the first to come to the first emperor, the Li family is a noble, and it is a century-old family, passed to Li Xiang's generation, the people are not abundant, and the money accumulated by the Li family for several generations is regarded as rich and rivals the country, and Li Xiang will dedicate all his wealth to help the first emperor revolt. Even when his father and the first emperor got acquainted, Li Xiang was drawn from it.

Later, Li Xiang wholeheartedly assisted the first emperor, helped the first emperor ascend the throne, established Dayue, and in the following decades, he served as the prime minister, and tried his best to assist the dynasty. These Xu Ge elders must be the clearest. ”

Elder Xu Ge was silent, indeed, he was an old minister who could see it clearly.
