Chapter 163: False Accusations
"Lord Wang, please."
Seeing his hesitation, Xiao Xiazi turned around and made another "please" gesture.
Yin Mo was silent and followed him to the hall.
When he looked up again, it was a different story.
In the center of the main hall, there is a pot of fire, and on the red sandalwood dragon pattern couch in front of it, through the clear yellow gauze tent, it can be vaguely seen that there is a person inside, who is lying sideways.
He lifted the corners of his robe and knelt down respectfully.
"The younger brother sees the emperor, and the emperor is auspicious."
There was silence in the hall.
The man lying on the dragon couch did not move, as if he had fallen asleep.
"Minister...... See the Emperor! ”
This time, he raised his voice a lot, and the hall was silent.
After a long time, the people on the couch finally moved, and Xiao Xiazi saw it, and hurriedly whispered to the cat to go out and call someone to come in and serve.
The palace maids rushed in, all with their heads down.
"Fourth brother...... There you are? ”
The talent on the couch sat up, looked down with sleepy eyes, his face was so pale that he didn't have half a trace of blood, his body was soft and weak, and his energy was low.
On that left arm, there was still a silk cloth bandage, oozing faint blood.
The palace maid presented the medicine cup.
"Your Majesty, it's time for you to change your dressing."
After being reminded by Xiao Xiazi, Emperor Yin nodded silently, and then beckoned to the people on the ground.
"Fourth brother, what are you still doing on your knees? Sit down! ”
Hearing this, the king of Nan'an kowtowed again.
"Yes, thank you to the emperor!"
"This assassination, the other party is menacing, and he is a master of one by one, sneaking into the deep palace of the Great Inner Palace, it is like a no-man's land, and now when I think about it, I am terrified!"
King Nan'an didn't know how to answer, but only said a perfunctory sentence.
He looked left and right.
"Father-in-law Xia said, the clan is sick, why don't you see King Shao'an and the prince?"
Emperor Yin's eyes sank, and he said weakly:
"The new prince is dead, the Four Kings' Mansion is full of troubles, I understand him, it is inconvenient to cause more trouble, as for the third brother, I have already ordered him to lead someone to investigate Yincheng thoroughly!"
The sparkling eyes flashed and swept over the face of the person in front of him.
King Nan'an only bowed his head.
"Your Majesty, the medicine has been replaced, and when it is a shift tonight, Weichen will come to change the medicine again."
"The doctor has worked hard, kneel down."
"Yes, Weichen retired."
Seeing this, Xiao Xiazi also dusted and personally sent the imperial doctor out of the palace.
The temple was silent.
The candlelight was faintly extinguished, and the red light of the charcoal fire was extinguished in the dim and dreary room. Yin Mo hid his hand in his sleeve, and after thinking for a long time, he finally spoke:
"Your Majesty, the minister's recital, I don't know if you can approve it?"
"Folding?"
Emperor Yin's defeated eyes flashed, and there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
"According to the meaning of the fourth brother, do you want to go back to Ba County and live for a long time from now on? But that place is bitter and cold, where is the urgency to go to the great Yin, the people are abundant, and the world is prosperous. ”
"Besides, if you are in Yinzhong, you can still serve the imperial court, I have not been on the throne for a few years, and I will always need you."
"The Emperor's ......"
But the man on the couch waved his hand to stop him.
"Let's talk about this later!"
"The top priority now is to catch the murderer, so that everyone can rest assured, otherwise the people of the DPRK and China will be panicked."
The king of Nan'an then stopped talking.
"Yes, the minister obeys the emperor's orders."
"In the past few days, you will live in the palace first and talk to me."
Hearing these two words, Yin Mo's eyes jumped! A sense of foreboding, from the depths of his heart, spread.
"The minister didn't dare to resist the order, but he was afraid that the insiders were not thoughtful in the house."
"Oh? It turned out that the fourth brother was worried about his wife. ”
The man on the couch smiled comfortably.
"That's easy to do, I immediately ordered someone to go to the palace and bring the lady in."
"Natsuko-chan!"
Before the king of Nan'an could refute, the oracle was issued.
When things came to such a point, it was inconvenient for him to say more, thinking of the guards outside the Zhangtai Palace, and his heart was even more drumming.
"Your Majesty, King Shao'an asks to see you."
Hearing this, Yin Mo immediately got up: "Since the emperor has something to do, the minister will retire." ”
"No problem! They are all their own brothers. ”
As he spoke, he nodded to the little eunuch.
After a while, I heard the footsteps of the outer hall "Tuk Tuk", sonorous and powerful, and someone opened the curtain to let people in.
The person who came was dressed in a light robe, wiped the jade belt on his forehead, and immediately held his sword.
"The minister participates in the emperor!"
When he saw the people in the temple, he seemed to be surprised, his eyes flashed faintly, but there was no expression on his face.
"What?"
The sound of Ling Ling on the couch came.
"Back to the emperor, the murderer...... It's been caught. ”
"Oh?!"
Emperor Yin Huo Ran glared at the person in front of him, as if he was angry, as if angry, and with a little banter.
"Who is it?"
After hesitating for a while, Yin Shu still replied: "The killer is a woman, named Chun'er, this is a maid named 'Se Chun' when he inspected the Nan'an Palace, and he confessed it personally. ”
As soon as these words came out, Yin Mo suddenly glared at him!
But in an instant, he regained his composure and looked at Yin Shu lightly.
"Impossible."
He got up and fell to his knees.
"Emperor Mingjian, this Se Chun is just a humble maidservant, she has always been jealous of Shu'er's favor, and she is used to making waves, and regardless of the loyalty of her ministers, even if she really plans to assassinate, she will never use such people."
"This testimony is ridiculous!"
When he said this, his tone was indignant.
Yin Shu glanced at him, still unfazed.
"Minister...... I also think it's ridiculous. ”
"Ridiculous?"
The man on the couch sneered, his eyes swept between the two, his face was terrifyingly gloomy, and the blood on his arm seemed to be oozing out because of this anger.
"Since the third brother and the fourth brother both think it is not credible, then continue to investigate."
"But the king of Nan'an has a suspicion and must be temporarily imprisoned!"
The huge room fell silent again.
After a long time, King Nan'an slowly kowtowed.
"Minister, take the order!"
"Xiao Xiazi, take the king of Nan'an to the Qiansha cabinet to rest, and before the case is clarified, you must not take a step out of the Zhangtai Palace, and the Nan'an Palace's palace will send heavy troops to guard it and investigate it one by one."
When he said the last four words, he suddenly accentuated his tone.
"Close relatives and family members are all brought into the palace and taken care of."
"Yes!"
Yin Shu wanted to say something, his lips smacked a few times, but he couldn't say it. He shook his sword again at the man on the couch.
"Command!"
A few days later, news came from outside the palace, saying that the king of Nan'an wanted to do misdeeds and assassinate Emperor Yin, and he had a heart of disobedience.
After a thorough investigation, several small cases were brought out one after another.
Five days later.
The Yan Mansion of Bajun submitted an edict, accusing the king of Nan'an of being a tiger, robbing the people's daughters, and taking prostitutes into the palace...... A total of twelve counts.
Three more days.
The local Zuo Sima Cai Heng made a twist and turn, suing the king of Nan'an for privately making weapons and recruiting troops with bad intentions.
Two more days passed.
The officials in the court, and there are many excerpts, and they all guide King An with swords!
