Mo received the emperor's holy decree to thoroughly investigate the military department, and carefully calculated how to start.

Seeing that Mo Zhi was reluctant to give the order to arrest Xue Bin, Mo Qingyuan asked curiously: "Dad, you obviously know that it was Xue Bin who reported the news and provided troops for the second prince, why didn't you go directly to arrest him?" ”

Mo Zhi said meaningfully: "Guan Qin was beheaded, everyone in the court knows about it, Mo Chao will leave a way back, he may not be able to, not to mention that even if you are a witness, as long as he dies without evidence, he will not be convicted." ”

Mo Qingyuan nodded seriously: "It's still my father's thoughtfulness, if I had done it, I would have brought people to his house a long time ago." ”

Mo Zhi smiled, and the two of them walked in the direction of Dali Temple.

In the prison of Dali Temple, the leader of the rebels, Sun Yuqing, leaned against the cell door with his head down, his cloudy eyes were full of despair, it was a matter of time before he was killed, and now he was kept just because he was still of some use.

The door was opened by the guards and there was a cacophony that made the dim and cold cell even more oppressive.

Sun Yuqing slowly raised his head and saw Mo Zhi stepping in.

"Why are you bothered, following Guan Qin, rebelling, and now ending up with a beheaded." Mo Zhi looked at the person in front of him and said slowly.

Sun Yuqing's face was solemn, and he stared at Mo Zhi tightly: "Today's emperor is mediocre and incompetent, and the people are full of complaints. ”

Mo Zhi looked at the angry man in front of him lightly: "Rebellion is rebellion, one day as a king, a lifetime as a king, you have no reason to say that you are rebelling because of the king's incompetence." ”

Sun Yuqing lowered his head and spoke slowly for a long time: "You came to me today, there must be something, right?" ”

"You sent troops with Guan Qin, this kind of thing needs to be coordinated from inside to outside, right? And there are only a few subordinate departments responsible for guarding the emperor. Mo Zhi's cold voice echoed in the dead silence of the prison around him.

Sun Yuqing turned his head and stopped staring at Mo Zhi: "Hmph! I've never known anyone in the military department, so I'm afraid you're mistaken. ”

Mo Zhi's face was grim: "How do you know that the person who reported the news came from the military department?" Saying that, he looked at Sun Yuqing: "I won't tell you, I'm not here to ask you who this person is, because I already know, and I came to you just to ask for a confession to prove that Xue Bin colluded with you." ”

Mo Zhi's words were loud, and when Sun Yuqing heard the name Xue Bin, he immediately messed up.

"You also have a daughter at home, right?" Mo Zhi looked at Sun Yuqing and spoke in a low voice.

"What are you going to do, don't hurt her." Sun Yuqing stood up excitedly.

Mo Zhi raised his hand and put it on Xue Bin's shoulder: "Don't worry, I, Mo Zhi, am not the despicable villain who takes advantage of people's danger, but, have you thought about it, what will happen to your daughter after you die?" I will take good care of your daughter, and you will tell me honestly what is going on between you and Xue Bin. ”

Xue Bin was short of breath, as if he had made a lot of determination: "Xue Bin is just a messenger, Guan Qin's identity cannot be revealed, and Xue Shilang, who serves in the military department, is the best candidate." ”

Saying that, he paused and looked up at Mo Zhi: "Xue Shilang is also a person with unspeakable secrets, his wife and children were under house arrest by Guan Qin, Xue Shilang had to listen to him, and the last secret letter was sent to me, and Guan Qin released his family." ”

Mo Zhi nodded: "I know, I will ask the emperor to open up the Internet and punish him lightly, so you are in contact with each other, but there is still evidence that has not been eliminated?" ”

"In my house, in the poetry scriptures on the bookshelf in the study, there are letters exchanged between the two of us, you can go and get them." Sun Yuqing said.

He grabbed Mo Zhi's hand with excitement again: "Don't forget what you promised." ”

Mo Zhi took one last look at him, turned around and walked out: "Don't worry, my Mo Zhi's words count, your daughter, I will protect you from being bullied." With that, he walked out of the prison.

came to Sun Yuqing's house, and according to what he said, there was indeed a pile of letters hidden in the Book of Poetry.

Mo Zhi took the evidence of collusion and collusion, and rushed to the military headquarters with soldiers and horses without delay.

Xue Bin was checking the personnel records of the military department at the table, only to hear a noise outside the door, a group of guards broke in, and Mo Zhi then entered the door.

Xue Bin looked at Mo Zhi who was headed, and his eyes widened: "What's going on, what are you going to do, this is the military department, not the city guard." ”

Mo Zhi didn't say anything superfluous, and handed the letter in his hand to Xue Bin's eyes.

Xue Bin's face immediately changed, and he couldn't speak: "This ...... How can this be in your hands? ”

Mo Zhi looked at the panicked Xue Bin: "Let's go, Xue Shilang, the matter has come to this, follow me to the emperor to return to his life." ”

An Xian was busy sorting out the comics on the shelves, this comic was so popular that the books just delivered by the printing house were snatched up in only half a day, and in the long run, it was a considerable income.

With a bang, the door of the library was pushed open, and Li Mingyue ran to An Xian with tears in her eyes.

An Xian was taken aback by Li Mingyue's appearance, and hurriedly stepped forward to support her: "What's wrong with you, what is it that made you look like this?" ”

Li Mingyue helped An Xian, and tears fell: "An Xian, Xue Yang's uncle Xue Bin participated in the Guanqin rebellion and helped him pass the message, the emperor was furious when he found out, and the Xue family was imprisoned!" ”

An Xian was also shocked when he heard this, participating in the rebellion, even a powerful princely family like the Xue family could not escape the death penalty, so what should Xue Yang and Mingyue do.

An Xian took Li Mingyue and sat down in front of the table: "Don't worry, no matter how you say it, Xue Bin is just helping them pass the message, and he is not fully involved, perhaps, there is a turning point in this matter." ”

A glimmer of hope appeared in Li Mingyue's eyes: "An Xian, have you thought of something?" ”

"You go back to the house first and wait, I'll go to Mo Zhi, and I'll discuss it when I come back." After An Xian finished speaking, he pulled Li Mingyue and walked out.

In the yasho, Mo Zhi was busy sorting out the list of rebels this time, and saw An Xian rushing in the door with an anxious face.

Mo Zhi got up and walked to An Xian: "What's the matter, is there something wrong with suddenly coming to me today?" ”

"I heard that something happened to the Xue Mansion, Xue Yang's uncle Xue Bin reported to Guan Qin, and the Xue family was imprisoned." Ahn Hyun asked.

Mo Zhi's face sank: "Xue Bin secretly colluded with Guan Qin, and Guan Qin got in touch with Sun Yuqing through his hand. Mo Zhi paused: "It's just that Xue Bin was also threatened by Guan Qin, and his family was released by Guan Qin not long ago, and I was thinking about pleading with him, but now the emperor is angry, and no one can listen to him." ”

An Xian lowered his head and pondered for a while, then spoke: "Now that the Xue family is in trouble, it is inevitable that Xue Yang will be imprisoned, but what should I do if Li Mingyue is here." ”

"I heard that the Queen Mother has been very fond of Mingyue since she entered the palace, and the Queen Mother has been unwell recently, so it is better to ask Mingyue to petition to enter the palace to take care of the Queen Mother, and then go to the Queen Mother to intercede." An Xian looked at Mo Zhi's eyes and said.

Mo Zhi also hurriedly replied: "Li Mingyue and Xue Yang are in love, and I can't bear to see the two of them have such a result, so I will go to report to the prince and let the prince intercede for them, you go to the princess and let her take the initiative to take care of the queen mother, it may be useful." ”

At this moment, Li Mingyue was disheartened, and when she saw An Xian coming, she immediately ran over: "An Xian, what did Mo Zhi say, is Xue Yang still saved?" ”

An Xian told her about the conversation with Mo Zhi: "Don't be anxious, Xue Bin is just a messenger, and he was coerced to do such a thing, you immediately enter the palace and go to see the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother has always loved you and taken care of your identity, maybe she will help you." ”

Li Mingyue looked at An Xian with a grateful face: "Look at me, it's all messed up, forget about this, I'll enter the palace now." ”

At this time, the emperor of the imperial study looked at Mo Zhi with a displeased face: "You came to the palace to intercede for the Xue family?" ”

Mo Zhi lowered his head and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, it is indeed a great crime for Xue Bin to spread the word for the rebels, but he was also confused for a while to become Guan Qin's puppet, Guan Qin secretly threatened him, and he was also forced to be helpless!" ”

Guan Zhen on the side opened his mouth: "Father, all the mistakes are Guan Qin's fault, Xue Bin is just one of the chess pieces, now the Queen Mother's health is not good, let's not kill more, not to mention, Xue Hou Ye is innocent, and I hope that my father will be lightly dismissed, as a joy for the Queen Mother." ”

The emperor looked at the two people in the court, his face full of anger: "You two, don't forget because the rebellion has subsided, my Dayao's country was almost destroyed in Guan Qin's hands, and it is impossible for me to agree." ”

Before the words fell, the emperor brushed his sleeves away, leaving two people in the main hall.

"Mo Zhi, my father has made up his mind, you still don't have to bother anymore." Guan Zhen looked at Mo Zhi helplessly, and also turned to leave.

And Li Mingyue came to the queen mother's bedroom, and the palace maids and eunuchs in Cining Palace were busy cleaning the palace.

On the golden silk soft couch in the palace, the Queen Mother was holding a book of poems and savoring it, when she was suddenly startled by Li Mingyue's voice.

When Li Mingyue saw the Queen Mother, she cried out with an aggrieved face: "Queen Mother, please save Yue'er, now there is no one to help me except you." ”

Seeing Li Mingyue's tearful appearance, the Queen Mother hurriedly asked: "What's going on, don't cry, get up quickly, and talk to the mourners." ”

Li Mingyue was picked up by An Xian and the maid, sat on the chair next to the Queen Mother, and wiped her tears with one hand: "Queen Mother, the emperor ordered that the Xue family is in prison, and even Xue Yang is among them, what do you say I can do!" ”

The Queen Mother listened to Li Mingyue's words and pondered for a while, in fact, she didn't want to interfere in this matter, she didn't expect Li Mingyue to intercede with her, after all, it was best for her to shirk this family matter now.
