Chapter 119: True and False Edicts
In the middle of the night, the heavy rain suddenly came, and Song Ran woke up suddenly in the sound of the pouring rain, and the person who should have been by his side was standing by the bed at the moment, his clothes and boots were already neatly dressed, and his hair was not tied up, hanging down to his waist.
He leaned down and asked her for a kiss. After parting, she looked at the fierce python pattern on his robe, and realized that he was not wearing plain clothes.
I don't know what time it is, but it's not yet time for the rooster to crow.
She was keenly aware that something was wrong with the atmosphere.
Before she spoke, he smiled and said, "Before the first emperor entered the Zi Palace, the people who were looking for trouble came, and they were too anxious. ”
A palpitation spread from her heart, and she heard the man's extremely cool voice: "Su Long was killed last night, and Chen Gui, who was in charge of the medicinal soup, is the official's person. ”
She understood his words in the shortest time, and although her face was slightly pale, she did not lose her sense of proportion, and got up and said, "I will tie my hair for adults." ”
He didn't refuse, and said, "Okay." ”
She tied up his hair for him and behaved quite calmly: "The envoy of the Chen Yuan is an adult's person, it doesn't mean that he is the adult's order, what reason does the adult have to kill the concubine and the imperial heir in her womb?" ”
"For self-preservation, of course. Su Long has an old relationship with me, and it is very likely that she has my handle in her hand, maybe the child in her womb is still mine, if you were me, would you let a person who would threaten her status live in the world? ”
The corners of Song Ran's forehead twitched slightly, if she didn't know him, she was afraid that she would also fall into such a speculation, just because this adult was really notorious, and no one could speculate about him with the slightest kindness.
As soon as Su Long's identity was revealed, she died, and the first person to be suspected was of course him.
She tied up his hair and said in a deep voice: "But they don't have evidence, Imperial Doctor Chen may have been bought or threatened." ”
"After Chen Gui recruited his own official, he committed suicide in fear of crime, which is equivalent to death without proof. As long as the people of the world feel that they are in charge, there are some things that do not need evidence, and a righteous name is enough to kill people. ”
Her hand paused, he got up from the stool, and looked down at her: "There are so many hats on my head that shouldn't be worn by me, and it doesn't hurt to have one more, I'm afraid that this fire will burn to the East Palace, the prince has a weak foundation, and he can't afford to be framed like me." ”
Even so, he didn't care much about the prince.
Someone walked outside the curtain and said, "My lord, the outside is urging." ”
Shen Hanxi said lazily: "Let them wait." Then he turned to Song Ran and said, "Go and put on your clothes, it's early to eat at this time, it's only because this lawsuit doesn't pick the hour, you have the right to accompany me." ”
When the messenger heard the words, he had to withdraw, he understood the temper of his own lord, and it was useless to urge.
The people waiting outside the door of the Shen Mansion were also calm, even in the heavy rain, the person who led the horse was still leisurely, as if he had expected it, the corners of his lips hooked slightly, and he raised his hand to signal the subordinates who couldn't wait behind him to be calm and continue to wait.
Song Ran washed up briefly, went to the side hall to accompany Shen Hanxi for breakfast, and couldn't help but ask him: "Who is so bold as to dare to take this errand?" ”
Looking at Jingshi, she really couldn't think of a person who dared to go to the Shen Mansion to get people.
He drank the soup slowly and methodically, and answered her question: "The people of the Jingwei Division Divine Command. ”
Kyowei Division...... Camp Godward?
Song Ran knows about the Jing Wei Division, the Ting Wei Division and the Jing Wei Division are both created by this dynasty, one is responsible for investigation and the other is responsible for military affairs. Different from the Imperial Guard, the Jingwei Division is parallel to the Governor's Office of the Five Armies, guarding the Beijing Division internally, preparing for conquest externally, and cooperating with the military department and involving each other.
The three words of Shendu Camp were extremely unfamiliar, and Song Ran couldn't think for a while that there was still such a system in the Jingwei Division.
Shen Hanxi looked at her frowning and contemplative appearance, and said lightly: "The Divine Governor Camp is the special army of the Jingwei Division, and it will only make a move at the very right time, and the person in charge of the Divine Governor Camp is secretly designated by the Holy Lord, no wonder you haven't heard of it, even this official, in the past ten years, has never seen the true face of this adult's Lushan." ”
Song Ran's eyes flashed, seeing him put down the spoon and wipe the corners of his lips with a clean cloth towel, the eyes under his eyelashes seemed to be a deep pool, and the surface was forever unpleasant: "As soon as this rain came, finally a cockroach couldn't help but crawl out and call." ”
She got up with him, her expression firm: "I'll go with my lord." ”
Shen Hanxi looked at her for a long time and did not refuse: "Then give this official a ride." ”
He walked to the door, took the umbrella handed by his subordinates, held Song Ran's hand, and beat the umbrella above his head.
Along the way, the two of them didn't speak again, and the palm prints were attached to the palm prints, which made people's hearts very stable. No matter what awaits her in front of her, she is not afraid. Even if it was stormy outside, as long as the umbrella was still in his hand, she was not afraid of getting wet in the rain.
Outside the gate of the Shen Mansion, a large number of people and horses were parked in Wuyang, all wearing black armor and red hats, looking majestic and solemn. The dress of the leader was obviously different from that of the sergeant behind him, with a bamboo silk rain hat on his head, about three inches around it, and a jade-colored raincoat on his body, which was delicate and meticulous everywhere.
He had been waiting for half an hour, but there was no displeasure on his face, and when he saw Shen Hanxi walking out of the gate with an umbrella, he smiled and said, "Lord Shen is really good to wait." His eyes fell on the woman beside him, and he nodded his chin suddenly, "Well, it turned out that he was entangled with a beautiful woman, but it is also worth understanding." ”
Sensing the slight chaos of the girl's breath around her, Shen Hanxi knew that this person was someone she knew.
He raised his eyes to look at the man on the horse, and saw that the other party had a pair of peugeot peach blossom eyes, even in this heavy rain, it was difficult to hide the outstanding romance.
It's a strange face.
Shen Hanxi's attitude was still arrogant and indifferent: "What do you call Your Excellency?" ”
The man introduced himself with a smile: "Commander of the right army of the Shendu Battalion, Xie Xuanying." ”
The sound of rain was pouring in his ears, and Song Ran's mind seemed to be temporarily suppressed by the sound of rain. Seeing Xie Qi here was not unexpected by her, but it was not expected by her. Unexpectedly, the person who opposed Shen Hanxi was indeed him, and unexpectedly, he would appear in such an identity.
The establishment of Jingwei can be traced back to ten years ago, that is, as early as that time, he was already in the officialdom. The posture of indulging in the landscape and not causing dust turned out to be all disguise.
His gaze fell on her, and his voice was still gentle, but it seemed to be separated from an unfillable trench: "Sister Shaowei, how long have you been apart, and you can't even call your brother?" ”
It wasn't until she felt the force in Shen Hanxi's hand tighten that she suddenly woke up, breathing heavily, her back crawling with a thin chill.
The saint has always been jealous of the Xie family, and constantly squeezed out the children of the Xie family who were officials in the court from the center of power, but now, Xie Qigongzi is under the banner of the saint and wants to ask Shen Hanxi for his crimes.
This kind of unreasonable contradiction is what makes her shudder the most.
How many mysteries are there in Xie Qi's body?
Shen Hanxi smiled coldly: "It turned out to be the seventh son of the Xie family, and Your Excellency hid it deep enough." Then he asked him, "What is Commander Xie doing here today?" ”
"Why does Lord Shen ask knowingly, Chen Guike has recruited everything. Looking at this world, no one dared to make a mistake in front of Lord Shen, and he was forced to take this errand in the next place. I also hope that Lord Shen, don't let me be embarrassed. ”
Although he was humble in his words, he never got off his horse. He represents the entire Jingwei Division, and he is at the same level as Shen Hanxi, so naturally he doesn't need to get off the horse.
Shen Hanxi's tone was relaxed, and he asked with a smile: "Don't you think that with just the confession of a imperial doctor, you can invite the official to move, right?" ”
"The confession of a imperial doctor, Lord Shen can't look down on it. The secret decree of the saint, the adults must always give face. He handed a token to the soldiers beside him, and the soldiers immediately took it and presented it to Shen Hanxi.
Shen Hanxi gracefully took the token and confirmed it for a moment, his expression still did not change: "It seems that it is indeed a secret order from the Holy One." ”
It's a holy decree, so what?
Xie Qi said leisurely: "In addition, there is also a holy decree in the hands of the subordinates. He looked at Shen Hanxi with a squint, "Following the will of the Holy Lord, after his old man died, he asked for this holy decree, but found that this was an edict of the Emperor." His face was still full of smiles, but there was no smile in his eyes at all, there was only a complex, deep and extremely cold ghostly light, "Lord Shen, you say, isn't it strange?" ”
When Song Ran heard this, his pupils couldn't help but widen, and another edict appeared?
At this time, the East Palace was also shocked by this news. The prince never imagined that when he was still trying to restrain his edge, the handsome son who appeared beside him to give advice to himself was actually the commander of the Divine Governor Battalion who had not shown his true face for more than ten years.
Over the years, he has never been able to judge whether Xie Qi is friend or foe, so he has not had a deep friendship with him. The other party does not deliberately please him, and his interactions have always been moderate, so over the years, although the two have often interacted with each other, they have not been involved in the slightest interest.
But now, the new edict in Xie Qi's hand has forced him into another desperate situation.
The edict was written three months ago by the saint, and it was clearly and clearly written, if Concubine Yi was a dragon in her womb, she would be the crown prince.
If both of them are written by the Holy Lord, then which one is the true intention of the Holy One?
If Concubine Yi is still alive, there is still room for a turn in this matter, and now, Concubine Yi is dead, and it is Shen Hanxi who will benefit, it is self-evident.
Everyone would think that it was Shen Hanxi who wanted to support him to ascend to the throne that would kill this potential threat.
Before the bones of the saint were cold, the crown prince was already under such suspicion, and he did not have to wait for the civil and military ministers to gather, he was already one step away from that throne.
In front of the Shen Mansion, Xie Qi had finished reciting the holy decree. The oblique wind blew, and the rain hit the man's woven gold python robe, leaving water marks on it.
"Okay." Shen Hanxi raised his head from under the umbrella, revealing that pale and cold face, his eyes were cold and terrifying, "Today, the official will go with Master Xie and explain the matter clearly." ”
