The emperor was analyzing it himself, so Dou Liang stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, this matter, the minister thinks, there is a problem. ”

Zhen Guogong's eyelids jumped, and his whole body was on alert.

Since Dou Liang entered the court as an official, every word he said was difficult to get along with him.

Not a word fell short!

After a pause, Dou Liang looked at Zhen Guogong with obvious suspicion on his face, "Did you hire a murderer to rob and frame me and His Royal Highness the Nine?" ”

Zhenguo Gong......

Be!

But normal people who talk like this!

This is Gozen!

With a look of grievance, Zhen Guogong said angrily: "Lord Dou, talk about evidence in everything, this kind of pot, this official does not carry it!" ”

Dou Liang sneered, "Everyone in the world knows that the things that the Fourth Highness did, as the grandfather of the Fourth Highness, don't you know?" Now that the Fourth Highness has been grounded, the Ninth Highness has received an errand, which can be regarded as the motive for the crime! ”

Zhenguogong's face darkened, "Nonsense!" ”

glared at Dou Liang fiercely, and Zhen Guogong looked at the emperor.

"Your Majesty, what is going on in this matter, of course, is important, but the minister thinks that the most important thing at the moment is to bring the Beiyan envoys into the city first and appease them more."

Dou Liang sneered, "Appeased? Why appease? ”

"Being robbed by mountain bandits in my territory is naturally to be appeased."

"Who knows if it's a real mountain bandit, or a fake mountain bandit that you got in order to frame me and His Royal Highness the Nine!"

Zhen Guogong said angrily: "Lord Dou, it's this time, don't fight with me, the overall situation is important." ”

After speaking, he didn't give Dou Liang a chance to interject, and said directly to the emperor: "Your Majesty, it's important to take people into the city first, you can't be so consumed and make the situation worse!" ”

After speaking, Chao Rong Heng said, "What does His Highness Nine think?" ”

The emperor also looked at Rong Heng.

After thinking for a moment, Rong Heng said: "Father, the sons and daughters feel that the mountain bandits can accurately know the time when the Beiyan delegation entered Beijing, either it is our side that leaked their itinerary, or the Beiyan mission has their own internal problems. ”

The emperor nodded heartily.

The son is not stupid, he was neither influenced by Dou Liang, nor was he led by Zhenguo Gong.

However, Dou Liang's words are not completely unreasonable.

At least as soon as the matter came out, as the emperor, his first reaction was that there could be no bandits, and nine times out of ten someone did it deliberately.

Who did it?

The most suspicious is Zhen Guogong.

The fourth child was grounded, and he couldn't watch the other princes grow bigger.

After a pause, Rong Heng continued.

"If you want to find out if it was done by the mountain bandits, it is actually easy, the father and the emperor sent them a reward in the name of appeasement, if it is a mountain bandit, tempted by the soft gold and silver, they will definitely do it again, and when the time comes, the son will lead people to ambush nearby."

The emperor looked at the suspect Zhen Guogong.

Zhen Guogong's eyelids jumped.

"Your Highness the Ninth is using the envoys of the Northern Yan as bait?"

Rong Heng looked at Zhen Guogong coldly, "This king still remembers that the last time the Beiyan envoy entered Beijing, the princess of this king almost died. ”

Zhenguo Gong......

Does this mean, do you want to declare a personal vendetta?

Zhen Guogong was suddenly a little caught off guard.

Rong Heng is uneasy and plays his cards with common sense, and wants to use the envoys of Beiyan as bait, if it is a mountain bandit, he can rob it once, and he can take the risk of robbing it a second time.

If the mountain bandits do not appear, then Dou Liang will continue to say that the mountain bandits are man-made.

"Your Majesty, by no means! Among the envoys of Beiyan, there are the three princes of Beiyan, in case there is anything missing, how to explain to Beiyan! ”

"What's more, if this kind of thing happens, if we don't feel appeased, but instead push them into danger again, what should the envoys of Beiyan think!"

"Your Majesty, the two countries have intersected, peace is precious, and you must not be impulsive, even if our army is strong now, but once a war starts, it will be a waste of money and a loss of life."

"Besides, this matter is not to the point of getting into trouble......

Rong Heng cut off Zhen Guogong's words in a cold voice.

"It's not to the point where it's going to be stiff, why did the envoys of Beiyan say something disrespectful and ask his father to greet him personally?"

Zhen Guogong smiled bitterly, "Being robbed by mountain bandits, it's just angry words under impulse, how to do it!" Thinking about it from another perspective, if His Royal Highness sends an envoy to Beiyan and is robbed by the mountain bandits of Beiyan, he will also be angry. ”

turned to look at the emperor, "Your Majesty, it is better to let His Royal Highness Jiu personally go to greet the envoys of Beiyan, and turning hostility into jade silk is the fundamental solution to the matter." ”

is talking, and the little waiter outside is polite.

"Your Majesty, Lord Shangshu of the Criminal Department asks to see you."

Zhen Guogong's heart suddenly gave birth to a bad premonition.

At this time, why did the Shangshu of the Criminal Department also come?

The emperor glanced at Zhen Guogong, "Let him in." ”

The secretary of the criminal department took the post station official and hurriedly came in.

The first time the official entered the imperial study, there was a tense atmosphere in the imperial study, and he didn't wait to go to the front, his legs weakened, and he knelt down.

The secretary of the criminal department had to mention him and put him in front of the emperor.

"Your Majesty, this person reported the case, the post station in the ten-mile shop on the outskirts of Beijing was robbed by the mountain bandits, and the envoys of the Northern Yan were all arrested by the mountain bandits."

The words of the criminal department were down, and Zhen Guogong was stunned.

What the?

The mountain bandits took them all?

No way!

He did not give such an order!

Rong Hengyi frowned.

Su Qing took everyone away?

What is she going to do?

Dou Liang touched the beard on his chin and looked at Zhen Guogong, "Grandpa Guo, now, what else do you have to say." ”

Zhenguo Gong......

It's my!

"Your Majesty, Lord Dou has put this matter on the minister's head several times, it's really ridiculous!" Furious, Zhen Guogong's voice couldn't help but rise a little.

His words fell, but the Shangshu of the Criminal Department said quietly: "Your Majesty, according to what he said, this group of mountain bandits is fierce in combat, has a large number of people, and their moves are fast and accurate. ”

Dou Liang sneered, "Well-trained, I'm afraid it's a dead soldier who pretends to be a mountain bandit, and those who can afford to raise so many dead soldiers are not ordinary people." ”

While speaking, he looked at Zhen Guogong with his eyes.

That's you!

Zhenguo Gong is going to blow up on the spot.

There are some drums up and down in my heart.

What the hell is going on, he sent someone to make a secret appointment with the envoys of Beiyan to have a fake show of hijacking by mountain bandits.

But he didn't let people rob all the envoys of Beiyan.

Could it be that the envoys of the Northern Yan unilaterally added drama?

Zhen Guogong hesitated.

At this time, the little chamberlain outside the door of the imperial study spread the word again.

"Your Majesty, Lord Dali Siqing asks to see you."

Zhenguo Gong......

How did an unplanned person come again.

However, Dali Siqing is his person, so there should be no accidents.

"Let him in!"

The emperor's words fell, and Dali Siqing walked in with a look of urgency.

Behind him, followed by a man with a bloody face and disheveled clothes, as soon as he entered the door, he knelt down towards the emperor, "Your Majesty, save our Highness!" ”

Shangshu of the Criminal Department turned his head to look at him, "You are the envoy of Beiyan?" ”

The man took out the jade pendant from his waist to prove his identity, "Xia Guan is a civil official of the Northern Yan Sanpin, this time he came down to the Gui Dynasty with the Third Highness to discuss the border trade, but he didn't think about it, and he met a mountain bandit halfway." ”

As he spoke, the civil servants of the three grades were about to cry.
