Throwing the bracelet in his hand on the table, the emperor said: "Back then, it was King Yun who set fire to King Qi, why, he still had to risk saving people?" ”

In his eyes, King Qi's life has never had four words: regardless of past suspicions.

What he has is just a retribution.

Yang De said: "King Qi has no military power in his hands, he originally took a fancy to the military power in the hands of Zhenguo Gong, and wanted to get it through means, but then Zhenguo Gong suddenly handed over the military power, and King Qi had no chance. ”

"Early in the morning, King Qi instructed the eldest prince and asked him to maintain close contact with King Yun."

The emperor frowned, "King Qi colluded with the eldest prince very early? ”

Yang De nodded, "It's about the eldest prince more than ten years old." ”

The emperor's heart sank heavily, and the anger of the stormy waves flashed in his eyes.

Ten years old!

I've hooked up with King Qi since I was ten years old!

No wonder Father-in-law Fu wants to say that this child has not been close to him since he was a child!

This is his son!

Scold!

What a good son!

Influenced by King Qi since he was ten years old, how close can he be!

"So, the eldest prince's actions over the years have been guided by King Qi?"

Yang De nodded.

The emperor snorted coldly.

The trick that King Qi used on him back then is now used by the eldest prince on the fifth prince.

It's really the same thing!

The disgust for the eldest prince has reached the extreme.

"Where does the secret passage in the house lead?"

Yang De shook his head, "This, the grass people don't know, the secret passage was built by the King of Qi five years ago, during the construction process, the grass people are only responsible for helping to cover up, not to let the movement here alarm the neighbors, as for where the secret passage leads, the King of Qi has never let the grass people know." ”

The emperor looked at Yang De suspiciously.

Yang De looked sincere, "What the grass people said is the truth, the grass people have recruited everything, there is no need to hide such a little thing from Your Majesty, the grass people really don't know where the exit of the secret path is, the grass people only know that the secret path is the soft body of the Mo family master and the Miao Jiang secret way, if you don't know the mechanism, you will die if you go in." ”

After a pause, Yang De said again: "This is also why the Nine Princesses did not track them from the secret passage, they really can't get in, the grass people are just a chess piece in the hands of the King of Qi, he will not tell the grass people such a top secret thing." ”

The emperor looked at him.

Yang De's eyes were full of sincerity, his face remained unchanged, and he let the emperor look at him.

After a while, the emperor said: "Over the years, can the king of Qi have an heir?" ”

Yang De's heart skipped a beat, and he shook his head firmly, "As far as the grass people know, no. ”

"No?" The emperor said: "He is not the kind of person who is not close to women. ”

In the Qi Wangfu of that year, there were countless warblers and swallows.

Pity......

The king of Qi rebelled, and those heirs and women were all executed by the first emperor.

Yang De said: "Your Majesty doesn't know, there was a fire that year, although His Royal Highness the King of Qi saved his life, but there were many burns on his body, some things, it was difficult for manpower to disobey the will of heaven, these years, the grass people have never seen a woman by the side of King Qi." ”

The emperor looked at Yang De deeply.

Multiple burns on the body......

That's ...... Don't lift it?

Don't lift it, King Qi is here to take a fart of the country!

Even if he succeeds, how will the throne be passed on in the future, will he go and raise one?

What a brain disease!

"In the court, which officials have secret dealings with the King of Qi?" After a moment of silence, the emperor said.

Yang De said: "King Qi has not appeared in front of everyone, it is King Yun, and I have always thought that King Qi has long been killed, all these years, it has always been His Royal Highness the Great Prince who is winning the hearts of the people, if you have to say which people are from the party of His Royal Highness King Qi, then the party of the Great Prince should be the party of King Qi." ”

Emperor......

"King Qi hasn't seen anyone in private?"

Yang De shook his head.

"As far as the grass people know, no, but the grass people are only responsible for helping His Highness look at the mansion in Kyoto, as a stop for him to come to Kyoto, and the grass people don't know much."

After a meal, Yang De did not ask for self-recruitment.

"The grass people run a tea shop in Kyoto, mainly to help King Qi collect all the news and intelligence in Kyoto, and when King Qi comes, he will return to him."

"If there's a major discovery and he's not there, how do you tell him?" The emperor asked.

"The grass people send the news to the Hui Gang, and the people of the Hui Gang will help convey it, but as for how to convey it, the grass people don't know."

What he said was reasonable, even if the emperor wanted to doubt, he couldn't find the point of suspicion.

"King Qi and Miao Jiang, how do you get along?" The emperor asked again.

Yang De said: "King Qi actually has no direct contact with the people of Miaojiang, it is His Royal Highness the Great Prince who knows that Princess Yun is the Holy Maiden of Miaojiang, and tells the King of Qi, and the King of Qi communicates with the people of Miaojiang through His Royal Highness the Great Prince." ”

The emperor frowned, thought for a moment, and then picked up some important questions.

Every time the emperor asks questions, Yang De knows everything and says everything.

After the emperor finished asking all the questions he wanted to ask, Yang De kowtowed, "The grass people know that they have no shame to see Your Majesty, and they know that they are deeply guilty, so they only ask Your Majesty to be merciful and forgive the grass people for their capital crimes, even if they are exiled, the grass people are also grateful to Dade." ”

The emperor looked at him coldly, and raised his hand, "Let's take it down first, put it in the prison of the Criminal Department, and wait for the fate!" ”

The little chamberlain immediately executed.

Yang De followed and left very cooperatively.

As soon as Yang De left, the emperor looked at the military department, "What do you think?" ”

The military department Shangshu pondered for a moment and said: "It seems that he sincerely admits his guilt and has a correct attitude, but what he said, the people involved are either dead or the opposite, and none of them can be checked, which is a bit too much of a coincidence." ”

After a pause, he added: "The only thing that can be checked is Tatar, which makes the minister doubt whether what he said is true." ”

The emperor looked at the military department and waited for him to continue.

"After all, the relationship between Tatar and the Dingguo Mansion is well known, and he proposed Concubine Xuan at this time, undoubtedly to make His Majesty suspect the person behind Concubine Xuan, that is, Tatar and Dingguo Gong."

"But the war horses of my Great Xia Dynasty all originated from the Tatars, and the Tatars have only been in contact with the Dingguo Mansion, once Your Majesty is suspicious of them, the slightest carelessness will affect the supply of soldiers and horses to my dynasty, and when the time comes, I don't know who will benefit."

The emperor nodded in agreement.

The military department Shangshu said again: "The minister is not saying that the Duke of Dingguo must be innocent, the minister just thinks that His Majesty should be cautious, and don't let him lead the rhythm." ”

The emperor smiled.

"Why do you say, he would rather be exiled than be condemned to death?"

Not everyone can endure the pain of exile.

Especially a literati like Yang De, who has fine skin and tender meat.

Moreover, during the exile, seven or eight out of ten people died, and the probability of living was not great, so why did Yang De ask for such a grace.

The military department Shangshu thought for a while and replied: "He would rather be exiled than be convicted of capital crimes, should he feel that he still has a chance to be saved." ”

"Who saved him?"

"King Qi!"

The soldier's Shangshu fell, and his eyes were suddenly shocked, "He didn't tell the truth!" ”

The emperor sighed, got up, and walked out of the table.

pacing twice, he said: "His words, half-truths and half-truths, even, there are more truths than lies, it is difficult to say whether the matter of Concubine Xuan is true or false, but in the matter of the secret passage, he must have lied, and he knows where the secret passage exit is." ”
