Chapter 203: Crime
"Nothing can be found."
It's a strange thing.
Chu Nian hugged his knees, and a faint light flickered in his eyes.
Dark, what the hell are you coming from......
……
The queen collapsed, the news smashed into the capital but it was like a stone sinking into the sea, without causing a trace of waves, there were so many wise nobles in Beijing who smelled that the wind in the capital was wrong, except for whispering but no action, the atmosphere above the court was solemn, and even the king of Huainan, who was active on weekdays, had nothing to say.
Sitting on the dragon chair was the emaciated emperor, who looked at the military officials in the audience and was silent.
It was the prime minister who was the first to speak, and he cleared his throat: "Your Majesty, the minister has something to do." ”
The emperor half-opened his eyes and looked at Wang Zixuan: "What is the prime minister's doing?" ”
Wang Zixuan glanced at the king of Huainan and said: "I heard that the prince of Huainan has the disease of flowers and willows, and these symptoms are spreading too fast, so I think that the prince's family should be sent to Huainan to seek medical advice, so as not to ......"
He didn't say the second half of the sentence, but the intention in these words was very obvious, that is, to expel the king of Huainan from Beijing on the grounds of the disease of the prince Hualiu, and this reason was that even the civil and military officials could not not agree, who did not know the disease of the flower willow? If you get infected with this disease, you will lose your children and grandchildren
Hearing Wang Zixuan's vicious words, King Huainan is face was slightly gloomy, and he turned his eyes to look at Wang Zixuan fixedly: "What the Prime Minister said is something to play, but it's just such a trivial matter?" The affairs of this king's family are naturally clear to this king, the prince has long been isolated by this king and treated in another hospital, Prime Minister, you are using the topic to play, for fear that this king will have the opportunity to continue to assist the royal brother in Beijing, right? ”
King Huainan said this very from the bottom of his heart, and his face was just right for the fact that he had not been able to assist his imperial brother for many years, Wang Zixuan's face suddenly froze, and he saw that the emperor above glanced at King Huainan indifferently and said nothing.
Wang Zixuan flicked his sleeves and snorted coldly: "If the prince should sincerely assist the emperor, why don't you simply hand over Huainan's military power?" On the contrary, he won the favor of the emperor with rhetoric here, what is the heart of the prince...... You don't need to make it clear, right? ”
The black cauldron covered by these words is big, don't say how the king of Huainan has military power, this sentence "What is the intention", but it is to deduct a hat of rebellion for the king of Huainan, and let the king of Huainan not argue, this crime of rebellion has been confirmed.
Wang Zixuan's move angered the king of Huainan, and when the king of Huainan broke out, he put another hat on the king of Huainan, no matter how sharp the king of Huainan was, he was speechless.
Sure enough, as soon as this remark came out, King Huainan's face suddenly turned red, although what Wang Zixuan said was true, but now his heart of Sima Zhao was put forward in public, especially in front of the parties, it was really unbearable.
"Hmph, Lord Wang can speak well, the black is said to be white, and the white is said to be black, do you have to worry about your disrespect to the imperial brother with you?"
Wang Zixuan was very disrespectful to the emperor early on, and did not put the emperor in his eyes, and this kind of behavior was clear to everyone present, but the emperor didn't say anything, and the civil and military officials couldn't speak, and now the emperor has long had a trace of the right to speak in the court because of the sudden rise of the prince, but Wang Zixuan is still the same, and the loyal and good people among the hundred officials have long been unable to see it.
So as the royal family of the king of Huainan said this, immediately provoked a group of loyal people to echo, they discussed one after another, and then the secretary and supervisor spoke: "Prime Minister, this move is really against ethics, if it were not for the emperor's benevolence, I am afraid that the official position of the Prime Minister would have been taken away long ago...... Prime Minister, it's better to pay attention. ”
Chen Lao said his words seriously, and suddenly Wang Zixuan's face turned red with anger, and the emperor at the top glanced at Chen Lao with a shy, and saw that Chen Lao fell silent again, and let the hundred officials force Wang Zixuan, who had lost power, to the point of speechlessness.
Wang Zixuan was so angry that he glared at Chen Lao angrily, and then raised his voice and said: "This official is loyal to the emperor, but unlike some people, he swears allegiance to the emperor and His Royal Highness the prince on the surface, but behind his back he killed the queen's mother, the emperor, isn't this kind of person more hateful than the old minister?" ”
The emperor's eyes froze slightly, he turned his eyes to look at Wang Zixuan, and opened his mouth, but Chen Lao took the lead in speaking: "If the adults really think that it is the Wushuang County Lord who has harmed the queen's mother, then Weichen really wants to refute it, who doesn't know, the Wushuang County Lord has been busy all day long, all to treat the queen's mother?" What's more, there is a 'virgin blood' in the prescription, and that blood is the blood that the Wushuang County Lord personally put down from his body, and Weichen feels that the loyalty of the Wushuang County Lord is definitely not a person who can harm the queen's mother. ”
Chen Lao's words were reasonable, and the officials began to talk about it, and for a while, Wang Zixuan found that he had become the one who had lost it.
"Hey, you guys...... I heard the exact news, when the queen was dying, but the Wushuang county lord was by her side, the queen was getting better, if it wasn't for the Wushuang county lord, how could the queen ...... so suddenly"
"Enough!" The person on the dragon chair was angry for the first time, and the emperor's eyes were slightly red and looked at everyone present: "The queen died of illness, how can you arrange this matter at will?" ”
He looked at Wang Zixuan, and the sudden pressure suddenly made Wang Zixuan's heart tremble, but after thinking about it, now Ming Xiu was sent to Qingshan Temple to collect the queen's body, and Chu Nian didn't come back, which of the hundred officials in the hall was the one who believed in the emperor?
No matter how angry the emperor is, what can he do with them?
Thinking of this, Wang Zixuan had no fear again, he looked at the emperor slowly and reasonably: "The emperor is angry, the queen is still watching in the spirit of the sky." ”
As he spoke, he looked at the emperor with a meaningful meaning.
Emperor, Emperor, your beloved queen, the mother family is our royal family, if you treat the royal family now, your beloved queen will be forgiven by the spirit of heaven?
There are many rumors in Beijing, and the most common version is that the Wushuang County Lord killed the queen, and killed the second mother of the Shen family in anger.
If you mention the collapsed queen, you naturally have to mention Shen Ruan, who died on the same day as the queen.
The topic of the queen was terminated, but the Wang family still did not want to let Chu Nian go, seeing that the emperor was silent, Wang Zixuan suddenly turned his gaze around: "Why don't you see Lord Shen today?" Didn't Lord Shen come to the court? ”
A courtier on the side took a few steps forward and said, "Back to the Prime Minister, Lord Shen is not feeling well today, so he took leave and did not come to the court." ”
"Oh, I'm sick-" Wang Zixuan's voice dragged out, "I heard that his sister was also killed by Chu Nian, Shen Erniang originally looked like a watery person, and her appearance was pure and lovely, but I didn't expect it to be ...... so easily"
"Your Majesty, please ask the emperor and all the adults to make the decision for the sister!"
A voice sounded outside the hall interrupted Wang Zixuan's words, Shen Dui pushed the wheelchair into the hall, and it was his family who helped carry the wheelchair behind him, Shen Dui was disheveled at the moment, looking haggard, the stubble on his chin was almost covered with his chin, and his eyes were bloodshot.
As soon as he entered the main hall, he was in a wheelchair, and his body suddenly fell to the ground.
"Your Majesty, my lords, please ask the emperor and your lords to call the shots of the sister who died tragically in Weichen!"
The emperor at the top couldn't help frowning, but he didn't speak, but Wang Zixuan glanced at the emperor dog-leggedly: "Shen Dui, what's wrong with your sister." ”
At this moment, the Wang family all looked at Chen Lao with mockery on their faces, and Chen Lao was face sank.
Shen Dusheng burst into tears, broke the jar and broke it, and never maintained his usual demeanor at all: "Your Majesty, the sister died unjustly, but because of some trivial matters and the Wushuang County Lord, she was brutally killed by the Wushuang County Lord, the Emperor, the Wushuang County Lord is too cruel, it is really ......"
He lay on the ground, with a tattered and tired body, and looked more and more miserable: "Your Majesty, my sister died unjustly, she knew that she had done a lot of wrong things before, and she had already sincerely repented, and even told me before leaving that she wanted to apologize to Chu Nian, but she didn't expect ......"
"It's the housesister who is impulsive first, but it's just a bickering, but the Wushuang county lord wants the life of the housemate!"
Shen Dui played a lot of roles, although he only frowned slightly when he saw Shen Ruan's body last night, but at this moment, he was in tears, and he was afraid that Chu Nian would have to mourn for Shen Ruan when he was present.
Chen Lao took the lead in standing up: "Your Majesty, this matter still needs to be investigated, if the Wushuang County Lord really killed Shen Erniang, he should also ask the Wushuang County Lord to refute it in person, if he asks Lord Shen to say it alone, I am afraid that it will still be contrary to common sense." ”
Shen Du looked back and glared at this old Chen: "Lord Chen, in vain Weichen has always felt that Lord Chen is a heavy person who can distinguish between right and wrong, but I didn't expect Lord Chen to protect the Wushuang County Lord so indiscriminately, Weichen knows that the Wushuang County Lord and Lord Chen are blood relatives, but the sister is also the only sister of Weichen!" Chen Dacai is a person who goes against common sense! ”
On the side, Wang Zixuan interjected at the right time: "It is said that literati and artists can use a pen to move the world, and Lord Chen is the secretary and supervisor...... No pen needed! ”
There was a lot of discussion in the court.
"Yes, last time, Chen Lao protected the unequaled county lord, and what is black can be said to be white!"
"Everyone has known the facts for a long time, that is, the Wushuang County Lord killed Shen Erniang, and now Lord Shen is miserable enough, what else can Lord Chen argue......"
"Lord Shen and the Wushuang County Lord have always been-for-tat before, this Wushuang County Lord is really holding a grudge, and he is angry and kills people directly when he can't have the power to plot?"
Chen Lao's eyes were slightly condensed, although he was always impulsively blowing his beard and glaring at home on weekdays, but outside, he was still a calm person, and at this moment, he was attacked by Shen Du and Wang Zixuan from both sides, but he brushed his beard unhurriedly.
"Then even if you interrogate the prisoner, you have to take the prisoner to the court, right?"
Shen Dui's eyes flashed slightly, and he looked up at Chen Lao: "Chen Lao's words are extremely true, please ask the emperor to summon the Wushuang County Lord to return to Beijing." ”
The emperor at the top looked at Shen Du inquiringly and didn't speak, but at this point, King Huainan paced and said: "If you summon the Wushuang County Lord to return to Beijing, then the Queen Mother and the family members should also come back, after all, the crime of the Wushuang County Lord has not yet been decided, but there are rumors, why does Lord Shen have to convict the Wushuang County Lord?" Maybe there were assassins...... If Qingshan Temple is without the Wushuang County Lord, I am afraid that the families of your lords will also be in danger. ”
Oh, the Queen Mother was already eyeing his sweetheart, Mrs. Lan, and finally Chu Nian agreed to help protect Xiaolan, if Chu Nian came back alone, who would protect Xiaolan?
