Chapter 128: The Death of the Queen Mother (3)
On the bluestone slab bricks in front of Yingtian Gate, there are eunuchs who moved a throne with red sandalwood carved lotus patterns, standing in front of the people of the Gu clan, and the Ruyi gold-inlaid red sandalwood table in front of them is full of food, and the eunuchs standing with the attendants on both sides are holding a small incense burner for heating in their hands, and a group of people are standing upright with their heads held high.
That posture made the ordinary people who stopped here to watch the Gu clan's people to seek the cause of the Queen Mother's death feel more and more lively, and they only waited expectantly for the good show to happen.
The Gu clan people who had been kneeling for two days were already exhausted, and some of them had sat directly on the ground because of the stabbing pain in their knees.
Gu Yangqing, who knelt in front of people, couldn't speak, that tongue was cut off by the emperor himself, the Gu family was gone, and he knew it in his heart, especially now that even the only queen mother who could count on him went, but every time, the Gu family's affairs could be on Wei Qingguan, even his tongue, he couldn't help but fight.
Under the anticipation of everyone, a bright yellow umbrella covered by the step of the eunuch palace maid and a group of Praetorian Guards appeared under the protection of the momentum.
The Gu family slaves holding the vermilion lacquer banner were far better than the masters who were kneeling on the ground and wanted to break their kneecaps, Rao was so, and after seeing such a battle, he breathed a sigh of relief, only that someone could take care of them, and they couldn't stand it when they stood up.
When the steps stopped, Gu Yangqing's happy face turned into wax gray in an instant, wearing a rose-colored purple and gold makeup flower pattern phoenix in Feishu embroidered palace clothes, covered with a snow-white white fox cloak, and the eight-treasure jade hollow flying phoenix hanging from the Feixian bun swayed, highlighting the dignity of a woman's identity.
Wei Qingguan rarely dyed a pair of plain hands for this group of people, with ten bright red Kodan, delicate and beautiful, and heavy makeup, which can be regarded as giving these people enough face.
After sitting down, Wei Qingguan reached out and took the handkerchief in his hand to cover the fat powder on the tip of his nose, and sneered, "Lord Gu, you have been kneeling for two days and two nights, are you tired?" β
Gu Yangqing looked at Wei Qingguan with cross-eyes, his legs trembled and he was helped up by the right slave, he couldn't stand up straight, and the burning pain made him bend his knees like this.
"What are you doing standing up, you can't speak, what do you have to say, it's better to find someone who can speak, you only have one tongue, but unfortunately it's been cut, I just don't know, this time, you have caused such a big disaster, this palace can cut you somewhere, in order to set an example."
Wei Qingguan's lips were cold, looking at Gu Yangqing's arrogant appearance that he was unwilling to grovel for himself, he only felt funny, unceremoniously, Wei Qingguan sarcastically said to Gu Yangqing, Gu Yangqing heard this, his body sank, and the hatred in his eyes was even worse, if Wei Qingguan was not protected by such a Praetorian Guard, I am afraid that at this moment, she would have rushed forward and tore Wei Qingguan apart.
The onlookers were all on tiptoe, a glimpse of the legendary pet crown of the six palaces, so that the emperor favored one of the queen's honor, from the Gu family suddenly knelt in front of this Yingtianmen, the people were waiting for how this matter was handled, but such a thing, they did not dare to spread it in private, it was the emperor's business, said the wrong word, but to lose their heads, the people spared their lives, only dared to look at it like this, this is far more lively than watching a big show.
"Weichen Gu Anyu see the queen mother." Gu Yangqing couldn't speak, there was someone who could speak instead, under the silence of Gu Yangqing's angry eyes, someone on the side had already stood up for him, standing in front of Wei Qingguan with his head held high.
A weak-crowned prince dressed in a moon-white Suzhou embroidered brocade robe, a jade belt waist, and a jade crown and tied hair, looked like a sub-merry and talented man, but Wei Qingguan remembered this person, but Li Mo, who was following him, bowed his body and reminded softly in Wei Qingguan's ear that this son named Gu Anyu was a editor in the Hanlin Academy, and he was the seventh grade, and he was Gu Yangqing's sister-in-law and the new head of the Gu family.
Dongfang Chen guarded the spirit in front of Taihou Ling, originally intended not to come here, regardless of their farce, Dongfang Chen originally wanted them to kneel here, kneeling until they couldn't kneel, if it weren't for Wei Qingguan to come here, he wouldn't even want to take care of this group of people.
Wei Qingguan insisted, and Dongfang Chen brought Li Mo and Su Hao together, and at this moment, Li Mo came in handy.
After Li Mo briefly finished talking about the origin of that Gu Anyu Gu, Li Mo said in Wei Qingguan's ear, "This Lord Xiao Gu has a very bad reputation, it seems that some people have seen this Lord Xiao Gu go in and out of the Fengyue place, and it is a Fengyue place with a small man. β
When Wei Qingguan heard this, the curvature of the corners of his mouth rose, and he couldn't help but be happy. A mute brother, a man-loving nephew, plus a rabble of relatives and relatives within the five suits, such a person, perhaps in the past, the Gu family had a pivotal position in the court, but now it has reached the end of the road.
I don't know where the Gu family got the confidence at that time, believing that she could turn the tide and protect the Gu family, such a group of people, she was willing to spend her life's experience, Wei Qingguan also had to admire.
Wei Qingguan pondered and smiled coldly, and when Gu Anyu was still bowing, he pointed to the vermilion lacquer banner held high in the hand of the slave, and said with a smile, "You have a good banner in your hand, and it took a lot of effort to think about it, can you tell me, when did you make the quota for this banner?" β
Wei Qingguan was accustomed to the rules of not playing cards according to the rules, and suddenly Gu Anyu was at a loss, and he didn't know how to reply.
While Gu Anyu was still speechless, Wei Qingguan had already taken out a dagger from his sleeve that was glowing with cold light and the handle was inlaid with colorful gems, and it was so majestic that it pierced into the Italian gold-inlaid rosewood table, causing a scream.
The bright red Kodan nails were on the table, knocking lightly one by one, Gu Anyu couldn't react, his face was a little pale, and he didn't give Gu Anyu any chance to react, Wei Qingguan pointed directly at the tip of his nose, and shouted loudly.
"Let this shrine tell you when you made this banner!"
"At dawn on the morning of the first day of the new year, Aunt Roufu found that the Queen Mother died violently, and then hurriedly came to the Chengfeng Palace to report that the emperor explicitly forbade everyone in the palace to walk outside the news, and planned to mourn from the House of Internal Affairs on the second day of the new year, and you, not long after the emperor spit out, knelt on the street of this Yingtianmen, even with banners are ready, whether you have clairvoyance, or Shunfeng ears, or the death of the Queen Mother, there is no escape relationship with you at all, you have long been ready, I want to make a big fuss about the death of the Queen Mother! β
"Rebels and thieves, what a boldness!"
"Bang" slammed the table, Wei Qingguan stood up angrily, full of anger, and glared fiercely at Gu Anyu, who was facing him, there were already many soft words of broken ears at the bottom, and the people were shocked when they heard it, Gu Anyu showed weakness in shortness of breath, and it was like a frosted eggplant.
Boosting his morale, Gu Anyu pulled his throat and hoped that he could fight with Wei Qingguan. "The empress concubine doesn't need to pick the time here to confuse the public, the imperial doctor in the palace said that the empress dowager was poisoned by a broken intestine and died, and the poison was hidden in the silk kerchief stuffed into the empress dowager's mouth, Chinese New Year's Eve family banquet, so many people, clearly saw that it was the empress dowager you ordered someone to take away the empress dowager, and tired of the noise stuffed the silk kerchief in her mouth, try to ask, it's not the empress maiden, who are you."
"Besides, it is not a matter of a day or two that the queen mother has a criminal record, how many outrageous things did the mother do for the death of the first prince, do you still need Weichen to help the mother recall? The thief shouted to catch the thief, and the mother really has a good ability to bend the facts! β
Hearing the words of righteousness, everyone in the Gu clan who was kneeling behind them was overjoyed, Wei Qingguan couldn't help but smile, and then gave Su Hao next to him a color, Su Hao signaled, and with someone in his hand, he detained Gu Anyu on the ground, and then Wei Qingguan personally stuffed the embroidered handkerchief in his hand into Gu Anyu's mouth.
Regarding the struggle, the vague words continued to shout from the end, Wei Qingwan smiled, patted her on the shoulder, and then got up to leave, Banxia took a wine jug from the red sandalwood table, and then under Su Hao's forced press, poured all the wine in the wine jug into Gu Anyu's mouth with an embroidered handkerchief.
Gu Anyu struggled, couldn't dodge, the whole person was embarrassed, and after Su Hao let him go, he couldn't stop cursing. "Crazy woman, you crazy woman!"
"This palace is just helping you recognize the facts, you have also seen it, the handkerchief is from the palace, but the person who poured you wine and drank was Banxia, past your brain, such a handkerchief, after that, how many people handled it, you seem to have seen with your own eyes, it is the bridge section of the palace that killed the queen mother, is it too naΓ―ve, and ignorant."
"Moreover, at the Chinese New Year's Eve family banquet, except for the concubines in the palace and the eunuchs and maids who accompanied them, none of the foreign ministers and concubines were allowed to enter the palace, but just now Lord Xiao Gu, with a look of being on the scene and being immersive, really makes the palace worth studying, so can the palace think so."
"I think that everything is your Gu family, and even the situation deliberately stirred up by the Queen Mother, everything is planned by you!"
In the face of Gu Anyu's annoyance, Wei Qingguan disagreed, and tapped his forehead with his index finger dyed with Kodan, and then said sarcastically to Gu Anyu, the voice fell to the end, Gu Anyu couldn't wait to jump to his feet, this woman's sophistry is better than anyone else, and in an instant, everyone present only turned the gun because of her words, thinking that everything was an accident caused by the Gu family thief shouting to catch the thief.
What's more, they will think that even the violent death of the Queen Mother was stirred up by their Gu family, obviously Wei Qingguan!
"Take all these people away, put them in Dali Temple, let the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, treat them well, and let them spit out the words they should spit out!"
When Gu Anyu was still stunned and didn't know how to talk to Wei Qingguan's words, Wei Qingguan had already shouted at Su Hao on the side and admonished......
