In the Jinluan Palace, Huizong looked at the people in the hall silently, and now half a month has passed since King Ning ascended the throne, and Jiang Lin's matter has never been said. Today, Lord Zheng Zhong, who was in the lead, finally couldn't bear the depressing atmosphere when he went to court every day, and stood up directly and stepped forward.

"Your Majesty, in the altar that day, Jiang Lin murdered the mastermind and plotted rebellion, and now there should be an explanation."

The courtiers in the hall suddenly quieted down, each bowing their heads and not moving, as if the hall was still, even the sound of everyone's breathing was suppressed extremely low. Huizong sat on the dragon chair, his hand on the armrest of the dragon chair, knocking gently, the hall was already unusually silent, Huizong knocked on the pure gold dragon head, and made a "click, click" sound as if knocking on their hearts, they remembered that more than half a month ago, they were also standing in the hall like this, King Ning stood in the front, at that time they were still advising King Ning to ascend the treasure as soon as possible.

But now that Huizong has returned to Beijing, Jiang Lin has been imprisoned for killing the mastermind. On that day, Jiang Lin's sentence "Lord, if you ...... today" they heard it clearly, how is it today? Thinking about it, what Jiang Lin wanted to say was "If you don't kill Huizong today, if you think about it afterwards, I'm afraid that it will be difficult for both of you to get rid of the guilt", this is a capital crime of rebellion, and the ministers have been fighting for decades in the court, and they are even more accustomed to the incident of the prince's seizure of the heir in the history books, how can I not know that this King Ning is afraid that he has already usurped the throne? If the emperor really investigates it, I'm afraid that these ministers, who advised King Ning to ascend the throne, will also be labeled as King Ning's party. Zheng Zhong is now bringing up the old things again, and I am afraid that he also has the intention of temptation.

Everyone lowered their heads nervously, and then heard Huizong say lightly: "Then what do you think?" He put his arm on the handle and looked at His Highness with interest. The civil and military officials were stunned when they heard this, and the hall became quieter, Zheng Zhong glanced back at the courtiers, and saw that no one dared to step forward to answer, so he had to grit his teeth and said loudly: "Jiang Lin's murder of the mastermind is already a capital crime, he is used to being arrogant and domineering, I am afraid that there is more than this crime." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the hall was like a drop of water falling into a boiling oil pot, boiling instantly, and almost every minister stepped forward, talking about Jiang Lin's crimes, and everyone scrambled to prove their loyalty to the emperor. The hall was in turmoil for a while, and I don't know who mentioned it: "There must be some implication between King Ning and Jiang Lin in private......" The hall suddenly fell silent again.

Huizong stood up and looked around. Earlier, when Huizong had not yet set out on the expedition, he carried a string of excellent Bodhi bracelets in his hands all day long, and whenever he encountered a major event and argued in the court, he would take the bracelet to make some small movements. The ministers in the hall have already seen clearly, if they twist the bracelet, it means that Huizong will have to think about it for some time, and if the bracelet is smashed in the palm of his hand, this person will not be able to stay. But now that Huizong has returned to the dynasty, he is not a bracelet, but the ambergris in the hall is no longer lit. He has a smile on his face all day long, and it is even more unpredictable than before.

"Lord Shang, what is the entanglement between King Ning and Jiang Lin?"

The adult surnamed Shang is the grandson of the old general Shang, and he is also the brother of the second son of Shang that day. Although the Shang family is a military general, but the eldest grandson has been sick since he was a child, and he can't learn martial arts.

"Wei Chen was in the altar that day, and he heard Jiang Lin shouting King Ning, so he thought that the two of them must have conspired in private to do something unknown. When His Majesty set out on the expedition, he even ordered King Ning to thoroughly investigate the case of Jiang Lin's embezzlement of military salaries, but not long after His Majesty set out on the expedition, King Ning released Jiang Lin, and now it seems that the two must have colluded in private. ”

This Lord Shang has dark skin and a rather cold face, and he is on duty in the Dali Temple of the Criminal Department, and he is trying the emperor's relatives and some criminal ministers. The important ministers of the court have long known that he does not eat oil and salt, and he has always been nicknamed "Iron Bread Prince". Everyone in the court knew that Jiang Lin and King Ning must have a dirty relationship, but he alone dared to say it. Everyone couldn't help but gasp, and couldn't help but secretly scold this Lord Shang for not entering the oil and salt, isn't this to involve the matter of the three important ministers who invited King Ning to ascend the throne that day? Although Huizong asked, "What do you think?" But they still didn't speak, as if they had already made an appointment, they knelt down in unison, and said in a loud voice: "The ministers are afraid." ”

But Lord Shang stood up and asked in a loud voice, "Have you lost your heart?" On the altar that day, Jiang Lin called King Ning, you really didn't hear it......"

Huizong saw that Lord Shang was going to say more, so he also knew that the civil and military officials in the court had been frightened all day long since he returned to the court, for fear that he would settle accounts after the autumn, and in the past, he also vaguely remembered that Lord Shang was such a ruthless person, and now it seems that this person really has a bit of the arrogance of a clear official, and he can't help but take a look at it.

He walked down the steps and stood at the front, "Lord Shang." Hearing this, Lord Shang hurriedly knelt down and said no more, "That day, King Ning was the protector of the country, and I am afraid that Jiang Lin was mistakenly regarded as a hero to protect the country." Jiang Lin is greedy for military salaries, mercenaries use it for their own use, and they kill the monarch and plot rebellion, so you will be the chief judge. It's just that on that day, King Ning was just a last resort to sacrifice to the heavens in order to protect my country, so let's stop at this time. ”

Although Lord Shang is upright, he also knows that Huizong must not want to be implicated this time, if he really investigates and punishes King Ning's conspiracy to rebel, how many of the important ministers who admired the new emperor's accession to the throne that day are King Ning's people? If you really investigate it carefully, the whole country will be panicked, and the six departments will not be able to operate, but it will really be a great chaos in the world. He hurriedly clenched his fists in response.

I only heard Huizong continue: "I was framed by the Jiang family before, and I was deeply trapped in the camp of the Vietnamese army. On that day, the young man hid me in a ruined temple, and reflexively went to save his master, but this time, I was almost captured by the Vietnamese army again. When I returned to the border city, this man was also waiting in the Taishou Mansion, but you say, should I blame him? ”

When everyone heard this, they were quite puzzled, and someone said: "This person should have sent the saint to a safe place, and then went to save his master, the emperor is the true dragon son of heaven, who is more important than the saint?" ”

But the other said, "How did he know that he would miss out on this with the Holy One?" He was just the Savior's heart, and he must have had an accident on the way, so he couldn't come as promised, so how could the Holy One blame him? ”

Huizong smiled, walked up the steps, and sat on the dragon chair again, "If it's strange, I did blame him when I was outcast, if he hadn't hidden me in the broken temple that day, and I left in a hurry to hide from the Yue soldiers, why would I have eaten and slept in the open?" But if it weren't for him, I would definitely be trapped in the military camp of the Yue State today, and the Yue people would definitely use my coercion to take away the Sima family's country. When I think about it, he is just loyal to the Savior, and he is in a hurry, so how can this person be blamed? ”

When everyone heard this, the big stone in their hearts fell suddenly, and Huizong said this, just to tell them that Huizong was to blame these courtiers who invited King Ning to ascend the throne in his heart, but they were just in a hurry to obey the power and act according to the old routine, and Huizong couldn't blame them. Everyone said in fear: "Your Majesty is wise." ”

But Huizong still smiled, "That young man's martial arts are good, brave and strategic, such a talent, how can I bear to condemn him?" ”

When everyone heard this, they hurriedly said loudly: "The ministers are willing to serve Your Majesty, and they will never give up." ”

Huizong laughed three times, stood up, and walked out of the hall. The courtiers kneeling in the hall found that their foreheads were already covered with cold sweat. They all know in their hearts that what Huizong wants to leave behind are just some really capable courtiers, and if one day they are useless and do something wrong, I am afraid that they will have to settle the old accounts of the three invitations to King Ning to ascend the throne. Some people even sat paralyzed on the ground, the civil and military officials seemed to have fought a battle, and they were already physically and mentally exhausted, and now they are afraid that they will not dare to be disloyal to Huizong.

Mrs. Jiang sat alone in the empty hall of Jiang's mansion, watching the soldiers enter the Jiang Mansion like a fish, and carefully inspected the Jiang Mansion. Now that she has obtained the promise of the young girl pavilion master, she knows that the pavilion master will definitely try her best to save Jiang Kun's life, so she has no worries, she calmly sat in the center, looked at Lord Shang coming over, then stood up, and said softly: "I think that my lord has committed the big crime of raiding the family and exterminating the clan, the adults don't need to say much, the women can save it." ”

Lord Shang has handled countless cases, but it is the first time he has seen his family members so calm, "What about Jiang Kun?" ”

Mrs. Jiang bowed, "I went to the north to study a few days ago. ”

Lord Shang nodded, "Then I'll bother the woman to come with me." ”

Mrs. Jiang did not struggle when she heard this, and obediently followed Lord Shang back to the prison of Dali Temple. Walking to the door of the prison, Madame Jiang saluted Lord Nashang, "The women have something to ask for. ”

Along the way, Mrs. Jiang was quite calm, Lord Shang could not practice martial arts since he was a child, and he respected the heroic people, and he couldn't help but sigh at Mrs. Jiang in his heart, and when he saw Mrs. Jiang say this, he hurriedly said: "Madame, but it doesn't hurt to say." ”

"Can you put me and my lord in the nearest cell?"

Lord Shang thought that this Madame Jiang was just an ordinary request, so he had Mrs. Jiang imprisoned next door to Jiang Lin.

Jiang Lin saw that Mrs. Jiang was escorted by the jailer, struggled to get up, saw the jailer holding her in the cell next door, and then walked out, hurriedly covered her legs, struggled to the side of Mrs. Jiang, and said softly: "Wei'er——"

The two have been married for decades, and even Jiang Kun has grown up, and now Jiang Lin has called Mrs. Jiang's maiden name again, which can't help but make Mrs. Jiang stunned.

"You and I have been together for several years, but now we have to meet in this prison, do you blame me?"

Mrs. Jiang shook her head and looked at Jiang Lin coldly, Jiang Lin sighed and said softly: "It's okay, it's good that Kun'er escaped, otherwise I would have gone underground, and I would be ashamed of my Jiang family's ancestors, and my Jiang family still has descendants......"

After hearing this, Mrs. Jiang thought of Jiang Kun again, and felt a little relieved in her heart.

In the small courtyard, the woman wearing the mask was still sitting behind the screen, and after a while, Shisu walked in and knelt down and said, "Pavilion Master." ”

The woman stood up, handed her a letter, and said softly, "Send it back." Shiso bowed his head and walked out.

The woman stood at the door, watched Shisu walk out of the courtyard, and muttered, "It's just her today, if one day, I beg you, will you remember the past love and allow me?" ”
