Chapter Thirty-Eight: Little Lotus Shows Its Sharp Corners
All that can be blocked are small fish and shrimp, a few giants in the palace, a few powerful ministers in the court, and the middle attendants will naturally make other arrangements. Either run a trip in person, or ask someone to pass on the message privately, it is always good to cover everything.
After some tossing, it was already noon, and things were finally settled. The assassination of the emperor was such a big thing, and he didn't come to the Xuan Room in one morning.
The middle waiter is really a middle waiter, and he has the ability!
The apparent tranquility of the palace does not prevent the undercurrents from surging in private. At this moment, in the Changxin Palace, Chun Yuchang knelt in front of the Queen Mother, trembling.
"Auntie, Yu Chang didn't expect to fail this time, what should we do, how could Your Majesty leave this kind of thing to that male pet."
"What's the panic, if you do such a big thing, you dare to make your own decisions without consulting with the mourning family. Now I know what the use of being afraid. "The consequences of this matter are too serious, even if the Empress Dowager is angry, it is impossible to ignore it.
Since entering the palace, Wang Mang, who has always maintained a quiet position, stood up at this time and said slowly: "What the Empress Dowager said is extremely true, but a male pet, how much ability he can have, His Majesty asked him to check, and he will check." Although Yu Chang acted boldly, he was also careful, and the eleven assassins did not leave any living mouths, and he could not find Yu Chang. ”
Seeing that the Empress Dowager's expression was clear, Chun Yuchang breathed a sigh of relief: "I don't know what luck this demon is, the last assassination was saved by the emperor." Brother Wang Mang poisoned him, and he was inexplicable. This time, Yu Chang invited twelve top killers with a lot of money, and he also avoided them. ”
Saying that, Chun Yuchang shook his head proudly: "If you want to talk about strength, these twelve are not weak, even if they want to kill the emperor, it should be enough, I didn't expect ......"
Before he finished speaking, there was a "snap", and the Empress Dowager slapped him in the face: "Presumptuous, what kind of place is this, you dare to say anything rebellious." Who do you want to kill, is it the Chun family, the Wang family or the mourning family. ”
Chun Yuchang realized what kind of stupid thing he had said, and he was so frightened that he shuddered and collapsed on the ground.
Wang Mang didn't look at him, but asked, "You said that you hired twelve killers, but only eleven people entered the palace, and one ......?" ”
"Ah" Chun Yuchang's eyes were dull, without the agility and arrogance of the past: "Oh, yes, there is another person who has not entered the palace for the sake of strategy." ”
The Empress Dowager held her forehead, why didn't she find out that this nephew was so stupid. Sending people into the palace to assassinate the dead soldiers who did not need to be cultivated by themselves was considered to avoid incidents and being tracked down, and it was still said in the past. But I hired people, and I still want to let them leave the palace, what else do you want to do...... Isn't this a knife for people to leave in the open?
The disappointed Empress Dowager glared angrily: "You idiot, get out of the mourning family, get out!" ”
Wang Mang actually didn't want to help Chun Yuchang clean up this mess, in the past, when this kid was proud, he didn't say bad things about him in front of the Empress Dowager and stumbled him.
Now...... Now I have to take care of it.
"My aunt still has to take care of her body, don't worry too much, and my nephew will do his best to handle the rest."
The Empress Dowager also knew that this matter was a big trouble to break the sky, so she sat down and muttered, "Good boy, now I can only rely on you." Although your uncle is in the official residence of Da Sima, he is not good in the end, and now he is sick in bed, and the Wang family will hand it over to you sooner or later. Although this time, what we want to kill is Dong Xian's demon, but entering the palace to assassinate this kind of thing, how to say it clearly, if someone catches the handle, it is a big crime, exterminate the nine clans......"
Wang Mangnuonuo nodded, confident and confident, but his eyebrows were never stretched.
First, the woman in Xiaoxiang Tower went crazy bizarrely, and then Dong Xian was highly poisoned, but it was cured without medicine, and Wang Mang has been faintly uneasy. Awakened by nightmares countless nights, it seems that there is a pair of poisonous eyes in the dark, and there is a pair of hands that invisibly restrain his throat, making him break out in a cold sweat every time.
The enemy is in the dark, he is in the light, and this uneasiness has made him stop and begin to learn to lie silently. But now, now this matter is out of his mind, Dong Xian, Dong Xian, what kind of person are you......
"Dong Xian, it's this Dong Xian again." The queen mother was also not at peace in Yongxin Palace, and her heart was burning like fire when she listened to the reports of her subordinates.
"What do the palace guards do to eat, how do the guards of the capital maintain the safety of the capital, are they all rice buckets, let the assassins kill until the eyes of His Majesty, this is still necessary, this is still necessary."
The Queen Mother was furious, and everyone in Yongxin Palace was silent. Only Aunt Su dared to persuade two sentences: "The Queen Mother is angry, Your Majesty is the true Dragon Son of Heaven, and the death is auspicious." Those assassins did not hurt His Majesty's dragon body for half a minute, and I heard that His Majesty was just scared, and he didn't rest well last night, and he would still be asleep, and there was nothing wrong. ”
The Empress Dowager Wang was not relieved by this, frowned, and asked, "I heard that these assassins are here to kill that Dong Xian." ”
Aunt Su said truthfully: "The assassin's first knife was indeed towards Lord Dong, and during the battle, some Janissaries heard that there were many foul words in the mouths of those assassins, and they were also talking about Lord Dong. ”
The Empress Dowager looked at Dong Xian very unpleasantly, and she had also used it to assassinate her, but she didn't want to be saved by the emperor. When she entered the palace, she was detained by the emperor in the Xuan room, and she just turned a blind eye.
But what kind of place is the palace, how can the assassins come as soon as they say, and eleven of them come at a time. No, I don't dare to think about it, it's more urgent and terrifying than Dong Xian's matter. Check, must be strictly investigated.
The Empress Dowager looked solemn: "Who is Your Majesty handing over to the assassin this time?" ”
"......" was silent.
The Queen Mother frowned and looked at Aunt Su, and asked sharply, "Who is it?" ”
"Empress Dowager Hui, it's General Wei, Dong Xian."
The Queen Mother closed her eyes tightly and lamented: "Demons, demons, old people, I can't control it, I can't control it." ”
That being said, ......
The Empress Dowager Wang was still in Yongxin Palace, and she was summoned successively, Confucius Hou Fu Yan, the crown prince and young master Mu Zhongguo, and Anyang Hou Ding Ming.
The Han family has never been indispensable in the world, and it is still in the past, and it is not true today.
Li Xiaosi sat at the east gate of the high Weiyang Palace, counting the imperial relatives and important ministers of the court who came in and out with his fingers.
It's really lively, not only Changxin Palace and Yongxin Palace ushered in the send-off, and there was an endless stream, even the Xuan Room where the emperor lived was also full of people.
The Great Sikong He Wu, the Prime Minister Kong Guang, the Zuo General Gongsun Lu, and the Sili Captain Xie Guang were cordially received by His Majesty the Emperor almost at the same time.
And our beautiful Du Yun didn't feel that he walked to the corridor house, chatting and drinking tea with new and old colleagues kindly.
Is Li Xiaosi bored alone? Investigating the motive and the instructions behind the scenes is not so much to check the evidence.
Since the assassination is aimed at Du Yun, there are not many people who can suspect it, and even fewer have this ability. But people stand in front of you and don't deny it, and you can't do anything about him.
Alas, I didn't expect that the evil feudal society also had times when it paid attention to evidence. Li Xiaosi's fingers slid on the blades of his fingertips, jumping...... Can't you really kill them all?
So...... Let's check!
