Chapter 617: Passive Again

The Rushan Order was sent to the palace at dawn and when the palace door was just opened, and it was handed over to Gu Xun.

Gu Xun valued the lines on the mountain order, which was the mark of the Wei State, and he was immediately overjoyed, "Today, you can officially question Du Zhong in the court!" "Now that something has been found, there is evidence.

The emperor's strict investigation of the courtiers is a legitimate thing.

Today, look at how Du Zhong quibbles, even if he can't be punished with capital crimes, but this thing is there, and it can put him in prison.

But he didn't want to, Gu Xun didn't see Du Zhong's figure earlier.

He asked in a cold voice, "Why didn't Prime Minister Du come to the court today?" ”

The hundred officials looked at each other, not knowing what was going on.

The minions in front of Du Zhong stepped forward and said, "Xu is Prime Minister Du is temporarily a little uncomfortable, and he has not had time to take leave from the emperor." ”

Gu Xun played with the Rushan Order in his hand, and said coldly, "Since this is the case, then send someone to invite Prime Minister Du to come, I just have something to ask today." After that, he sent a military general to lead people forward, which really didn't look like an ordinary condolence.

Baiguan looked at the jade card in Gu Xun's hand, and they all guessed whether it was related to this jade card.

Gu Xun also couldn't wait, "Come to think of it, everyone is very curious, what is this thing?" ”

"The ministers are lonely and unheard."

"This is like a mountain order! The top is the symbol of the Wei royal family, which was once in the hands of Emperor Wei, and it was the secret order of Emperor Wei. Gu Xun Langlang opened his mouth, and his tone was a little different from his usual mood, but after everyone heard it, they couldn't help but straighten their waists.

Gu Xun watched the every move of the courtiers below, some of them looked at them directly, and some of them were a little evasive, "Now there is a saying among the people that there are still remnants of the Wei royal family alive, not only taking away a large number of gold, silver and jade artifacts from the Wei royal family, but also gathering a group of rebels to hide the people, ready to launch a riot at any time." And it was the mountain order of the Wei State that ordered this group of rebels! ”

"The Qing family must be very curious about where I got this thing." Gu Xun paused for a moment and said coldly, "It was last night, from the Prime Minister's Mansion!" ”

The hundred officials were shocked and looked at Gu Xun in disbelief.

Among them, the courtiers who followed Du Zhong were even weaker.

"Your Majesty, is there a secret in this, the prime minister has always been loyal, asked for life for the people, and has never slackened off in court affairs." If Du Zhong is related to the royal family of the Wei State, then do they still have a career to speak of?

"This mountain order was found in the secret compartment of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the Prime Minister must value it very much, so Aiqing still wants to defend it?" Gu Xun's eyes were cold, and the person who pleaded for Du Zhong didn't dare to speak anymore.

It was Shang Shu, who was under Du Zhong on the side, that spoke, "Your Majesty, let's wait for the Prime Minister to come over and listen to how the Lord explains." ”

Gu Xun withdrew his gaze and waited coldly.

Above the main hall, I dare not say more.

Now Enke is imminent, the scientific examination will be carried out next month, and it is only a matter of two months from the scientific examination to the results, and the court will definitely change blood at that time, but I am afraid that some people will not be able to endure the New Year, so they will have to take off their heads and wear them.

There was silence for about half an hour before I heard the military attache hurrying back to reply.

"Your Majesty, it's not good! There is no one in the Prime Minister's Mansion! ”

When the words came out, Gu Xun couldn't help but stand up, "What about people!" ”

The military attache was also very nervous, "When the subordinates and others brought people there, the Prime Minister's Mansion was already empty, and even important items such as the study were gone, and they seemed to disappear overnight, and no one saw the people in the Prime Minister's Mansion in the morning, I was afraid that Du Zhong had escaped!" ”

Escape!

This means that there is no need for Gu Xun to ask how the Rushan Order in his hand is, he Du Zhong directly absconded in fear of crime!

"Wechen suspects that there is a secret channel in the Prime Minister's mansion, and has sent someone to search, and I think there will be a reply soon, so Wechen came to inform the emperor first." The general's reaction was also quick.

Gu Xun's face turned pale, "Come on, arrest Kang Yi!" Torture. ”

Because he has never caught Du Zhong's handle, but Kang Yi has a group of eunuchs with excellent martial arts, he secretly ordered someone to control Kang Yi, and secretly monitored the exchanges between the two and Kang Yi's behavior. Not only that, but there are also some people who are secretly monitoring the people related to Eucommia.

Rong Bing on the side also remembered it, and arched his hand towards Gu Xun, "The subordinates will only go to them, it's time to act." ”

Gu Xun nodded.

The hands in the cuffs clenched into fists.

It can only be said that Du Zhong has always been disguised too well, he did not find the handle of Du Zhong's assassination of the emperor's brother, nor even the connection between Du Zhong, he wanted to get something and wiped out Du Zhong in the court, so that he was powerless to resist, who knew that Du Zhong was so careful that he could disappear overnight, he must have been prepared.

But this time, he was able to completely remove the mask of Eucommia's hypocrisy!

After Wen Ling learned that Huo Guang had succeeded, he ordered the guards to monitor every eunuch in the palace, and they needed to strictly check their entry and exit, including the secret passage found before in the palace, which was to prevent Kang Yi from coming to transmit the message and startling the snake. At the same time, people went to bring back the spring of the Huanyi Bureau, and the spring often stayed in the Huanyi Bureau for a long time, but there was very little news and only a list was given.

"Spring is useless, I haven't been able to gain their full trust, only this is the list."

Chun Chang handed out the list, Wen Ling saw the wound on her hand, and said with relief, "It's better than nothing, you did your best, come back today!" ”

In the end, it is the person who went out of Yongning Palace, no matter how they act, how dare others trust it easily.

Wen Ling looked at the list, and the list given by Chun Chang was actually not an ordinary list.

After the names of these eunuchs and palace maids, they all wrote what they did that violated the palace rules.

For example, which eunuch of the Internal Affairs Office will secretly resell the old things of the Internal Affairs Office to fill his own pockets.

Which palm of the treasure's room will secretly pick up the leftover leftovers and sell them to the palace maids and eunuchs who love beauty when making jewelry for the master.

These names are scattered, but they can give Wen Ling a reason to catch their mistakes.

And Kang Yi's apprentice Ning Xi was also secretly accepting bribes in the Internal Affairs Office, and the way of bribery was through gambling through the little eunuchs.

Chun Chang went in and out of the Huanyi Bureau and found that there were palace maids and eunuchs from the Huanyi Bureau, and after working in the Huanyi Bureau for a short time, they would go to the Internal Affairs Office and play a game with Ning Xi to throw dice, and they would be transferred from the Huanyi Bureau soon after, so it can be guessed that Ning Xi must have a lot of private families, Wen Ling looked at these lists, although there are not many, but it is good to be able to pull out these heads first.

In the afternoon, Wen Ling learned about the affairs of the court from Rong Qing.

"Niangniang, Du Zhong has escaped, there is a secret passage in the Prime Minister's Mansion that connects to the outside of the city, and there are still many traces in it, it was overnight, so the people guarding the city did not find it. Du Zhong had already had a way out, so he was so unscrupulous, looking for traces and sending people to find them, but the traces disappeared by the Wei River outside the city, and they got off the carriage and left by water. ”

"This eucommia is really thoughtful." Wen Ling pursed her lips, "Did you find anything from the Zhai family?" ”

"I didn't move before because the Zhai's maiden family is also Lao Shangshu, and he has followed the first emperor for many years without merit and hard work, and now Du Zhong has confessed his guilt when he escapes, and he can't guess what Du Zhong will do next, but the emperor has ordered a strict investigation and has sent someone to find Lao Shangshu. Kang Yi disguised himself in the morning and prepared to sneak out of the city gate, but the generals guarding the city saw the suspicion and thought of a way to detain it, and now he has been caught and is being interrogated. Rong Qing replied, "Now that Du Zhong is guilty, the emperor ordered a hunt, and soon the people will know that the emperor asked his subordinates to inform Niangniang that from today on, Niangniang will no longer have to work hard to act." ”

Also, the Eucommia people have run away.

The people he left here can only wait to be arrested one by one, what else do they need to play?

Wen Ling nodded, happy but a little unwilling.

Seeing that he had grabbed Du Zhong's handle, why did he escape?

"Despite this, the palace still has to be careful, the fish and shrimp in the harem have not been cleaned up, so there is no need to disguise, and the manpower of Xiu'an Palace will be increased today until Bai Yue gives birth to an heir safely." Wen Lingdao.

"The mother is thinking properly." Rong Qing nodded.

"By the way, how is Dr. Ouyang there? Huo Guang and the girl have already woken up? Wen Ling asked.

Rong Qing shook her head, "I haven't gotten the news yet, but with Dr. Ouyang's medical skills, it's not a big problem, does Niang Niang want to go and see?" ”

Wen Ling thought for a while, "Let's go back in two days, and I'll go to Xiu'an Palace in a while." ”

"Yes." Rong Qing should go down.

Xianqin and Yi Yu came forward to wait, and Xianqin said, "Now that Du Zhong has no choice but to show his minions, the princess can be regarded as relieved, after all, it is much more dangerous to hide in the dark than in the open." ”

"Yes, after waiting for so long, it can be regarded as pushing Eucommia to the surface." Wen Ling is also glad about this, "Du Zhong does not explain that he directly escapes is a confession, and now he has a righteous and bright reason to kill him, but he is just ......"

"What else is the princess worried about?" Yi Yu felt a lot more relaxed, "We don't have to act in this harem now." ”

Wen Ling twisted his brows, "Huo Guangcai stole Rushan Ling last night, and Du Zhong immediately withdrew overnight, he must have known that Rushan Ling found out in his mansion that no matter how clever he was, he couldn't defend it, but his retreat was prepared so quickly, Bengong doubted it...... He's got a backhand......"

If a person can prepare one way back for himself, he can prepare two.

Wen Ling pinched his eyebrows, "This palace thinks that Du Zhong still has some handle in his hand." ”

Thinking of something, Wen Ling suddenly opened his eyes, and his eyes were solemn.

"Princess, what did you come up with?" The strings of the piano couldn't help but get nervous.

Wen Ling had a faint bad premonition in his heart, "Bengong is just wondering, will Du Zhong have already seen through ......"

saw through them acting, and never took it seriously.

Or, with Du Zhong's means, will he also predict that they are acting?

Just like her, two preparations were made.

What is assumed to be true is false, and what is false is true.

Gu Xun has been pretending to be Gu Rin to prevent being discovered by Du Zhong.

But if it is eucommia, it is the opposite.

What if he also guessed that it was Gu Rin who died, and the current emperor was just Gu Xun pretending? didn't debunk it in public, maybe it was just because the timing was wrong, he didn't have full certainty?

To tell the truth, the prince of the country will be, even if there is an edict of Shenglong, even if Gu Xun really killed Gu Rin, but will the people not let him be the emperor because of this?

Naturally not, the royal family is the royal family, but if Du Zhong takes out the edict of Shenglong and prepares to be the emperor himself, then he will reveal his wolf ambitions and want to change from a minister to a king. However, Du Zhong is like a mountain order, if he is really related to the royal family of Wei State, he himself is also a person with royal blood, and he can also sit on the throne justifiably, when will he debunk all this and let himself win the hearts of the people openly?

But all this is just Wen Ling's speculation, now that Du Zhong has escaped without a trace, no one knows what Du Zhong's next move will be, although Du Zhong's identity and ambition have been exposed, but now they are passive again, and they can only wait for Du Zhong's attack.
