Chapter 191: Become a Murder Knife!
Thinking of the jade pendant incident investigated before, Baili Qingcang narrowed his eyes slightly, and a light of unknown meaning flashed in his eyes, is there really any connection between the owner of Panlong Villa and his fifth son?
"Announce him in."
Baili Jinze's face was pale, he was stunned the first time he woke up from the bed, he was lying on the bed thinking about things, and he fell asleep unconsciously, and when he woke up again, it was a day and a night, and in this day and a night, there was also a matter of wolves besieging the camp, which is simply unreasonable to say that it is a coincidence.
He raised his eyes and swept inside the tent, his eyes fell on Chu Junyi, and he gritted his teeth in his heart: I originally thought that Shen Ninghua was already difficult to deal with, but I didn't expect that this Chu Junyi was not good at stubble, these two people will become husband and wife in the future and cooperate with each other, and they don't know how much trouble they will have to make in the court!
Thinking indignantly in his heart, his face did not show the slightest abnormality, he walked quickly to the center of the camp, knelt on the ground with a plop, leaned over and kowtowed deeply, and said in a sincere voice: "The son sees his father, and when he sees his father and the emperor is safe, the son is relieved in his heart." ”
Baili Qingcang looked at this son coldly: "Are you awake, don't commit suicide?" ”
The courtiers around him bowed their heads suddenly, as if their ears were temporarily deaf.
Baili Jinze was trembling in his heart: his father actually didn't save face for him in front of hundreds of civil and military officials!
"Erchen is terrified, since I woke up and heard the guards say that I had taken an overdose of tranquilizers, I really wondered in my heart, Erchen ......"
"I don't want to hear your explanation, what are you doing here?" Baili Qingcang interrupted him impatiently.
Chu Junyi's eyebrows moved slightly, it seems that although the emperor did not fully believe that Baili Jinze was the owner of Panlong Villa, but in the end he had some doubts about him, and even now these doubts are deepening, so he should go and add fire.
Baili Jinze's face turned pale: "Father, the son is here to greet his father, I heard that a wolf pack has besieged the camp, and the son hurriedly came over to see the safety of my father." ”
Chu Junyi raised his head and frowned: "Your Royal Highness the Fifth Prince, how did you know that the wolves surrounded the camp?" ”
"Naturally, I listened to the guards."
"You listened to the guards guarding your tent?"
"That's right," Baili Jinze didn't understand why he would ask such an idiotic question, "Lord Chu, is there anything wrong with this?" ”
Chu Junyi lowered his eyes and said in a flat tone: "It's nothing, it's just a little strange to hear His Highness say this, after all, it is the Praetorian Guard of the emperor's relatives, and the emperor personally ordered that you should not be allowed to walk outside the tent, not only did you come out, but you also heard about the emperor's assassination, and asked a little more in curiosity, and asked His Highness not to blame." ”
Praetorian Guard? Guarding his tent were the Praetorian Guards?
Baili Jinze's heart jumped suddenly, and he hurriedly looked up at Baili Qingcang, and sure enough, he saw his gloomy and scary expression, and hurriedly opened his mouth to explain: "Father! ”
"Shut up!" Baili Qingcang's eyes were cold, "Old Five, you are really good, my Praetorian Guards are obedient to you!" ”
"Father, the son is wronged, the son is ......" Baili Jinze felt that he was at a loss for words, he had just admitted that the news was from the Praetorian Guard, and now it was too late to refute.
Baili Qingcang slapped the table violently, shaking the paperweight on the table and jumping suddenly: "Chu Junyi, you go and detain the Praetorian Guards guarding the tent of the five princes, and then help the criminal department interrogate properly." If there are any problems, shoot and kill, no one in my pro-jurisdiction Praetorian Guard will not be allowed to have problems! ”
The commander of the Praetorian Guard on the side knelt on the ground, his forehead was full of cold sweat, he helped the emperor to take charge of the Praetorian Guard, if something happened to the Praetorian Guard, he was even more responsible, and if he lost his official position, he was afraid that he would lose his life!
Chu Junyi arched his hand, and a streamer flashed in his eyes: "Yes, Weichen commands." ”
The face of Shangshu of the Criminal Department is very ugly, others don't know, but he knows, on the surface, the commander of the Praetorian Guard is under the jurisdiction of the emperor, but in real terms, there are people everywhere, the prince's, the second prince's, the third prince, and the fourth prince...... Every prince has someone to install in order to control the emperor's whereabouts and movements, but he didn't expect that the emperor would suddenly order an investigation of the Praetorian Guard!
When Shen Ninghua heard the news, a smile immediately appeared on his lips: "I originally thought that Chu Junyi would choose a gentler way, but I didn't expect him to poke out the matter of the Praetorian Guards." ”
Qingque helped her with medicine on the side: "Miss, this matter of the Praetorian Guard is very serious?" ”
"The Praetorian Guards protect the safety of the emperor and protect the peace of the palace, it can be said that in addition to the palace of the harem concubines, the palace is full of Janissary soldiers, if something goes wrong with them, it can be said that the emperor's net worth and life will be unguaranteed. Although at present, the emperor is in good health and several princes have no other thoughts, it is inevitable that it will not develop into a hidden danger in the future. ”
In the previous dynasty, there was a story of the prince forcing the palace to make the emperor abdicate, and finally succeeded, if the Praetorian Guard was controlled by the prince, it is really impossible to say whether such a thing will happen.
Qingque nodded: "Miss, what should we do next?" ”
Shen Ninghua pulled the quilt and lay down on the bed: "Chu Junyi asked me to believe him, then I will concentrate on recuperating from my injuries now." ”
In the tent, Baili Qingcang held the fold in his hand, his fingers trembled constantly, and he was so angry that he was almost speechless: "This...... Unexpectedly...... Heh......"
Chu Junyi stood silently on the side, without any expression on his face, his handsome face and a flying waterfall screen on the side reflected each other, almost blending into the background, let the flying flow continue, I didn't move.
The criminal department Shangshu on the side didn't have his concentration, and his whole body almost seemed to be carried out of the water, and cold sweat was dripping all over.
Baili Qingcang's fingers were exposed, and he pinched the deformation of the chapter: "It's really my good son, it's really my good son!" One by one, they only thought about burying nails and eyeliner around me, well, really good! ”
His voice was sad and indignant, and the light in his eyes carried the pain of betrayal, although he was a king, but he was also a father in the end, how could he not be heartbroken by his own son's calculations!
"Please take care of the dragon's body, please emperor."
Bai Liqing sat on the chair gloomily, looking at the content of the recital word by word, as if he wanted to imprint every word in his mind. After a long while, he finally closed the chapter slowly, and looked at Chu Junyi and the Criminal Department Shangshu below with deep eyes:
"No one is allowed to spread today's events, not a word is allowed, understand?"
"Yes, Wechen obeys." The two replied.
Baili Qingcang looked at Chu Junyi and the Shangshu of the Criminal Department scrutinically, and only spoke again after a while: "The Shangshu of the Criminal Department retreats, and Chu Junyi stays." ”
Shangshu of the Criminal Department breathed a sigh of relief in his heart and hurriedly retreated.
Baili Qingcang got up: "Do you know why I let you stay?" ”
Chu Junyi raised his eyes: "Weichen doesn't know, please make it clear to the emperor." ”
"You have a tough personality, you are also smart, and more importantly, you have a skill, and Ning Hua also takes a fancy to you." Baili Qingcang paused slightly, "I need a knife, are you willing to be a knife in my hand?" ”
Chu Junyi raised his head: "Your Majesty, as your courtier, Wei Chen, let alone a knife, is incarnated into loess all over the ground, and he is willing!" ”
"Good!" Baili Qingcang took out a jade plaque from his sleeve, "I believe in Ning Hua's vision, so I will hand over this jade plaque to you, you can mobilize the Praetorian Guards, and I will give you a month to clean up the Praetorian Guards!" ”
Chu Junyi's eyes were cold, and his voice carried a hint of undetectable coldness: "Yes, Weichen obeys the order." ”
In the tent:
Shen Ninghua took the jade plate given by Baili Qingcang, and his eyebrows wrinkled slightly: "Your Majesty, I will give you this jade plate, what are you going to do with it?" ”
Chu Junyi leaned on the soft couch and smelled the fragrance of tea emanating from the cup: "Naturally, it has become a knife according to what the emperor said." ”
"There are also fast knives and slow knives, which one are you going to do?"
"The situation is chaotic, and a quick knife can cut through the chaos."
"The fast knife is hard, and the rigidity is extremely easy to break."
"If you break it, it will become two knives, as long as there is a little steel blade left, it is enough to kill. What's more, what I'm going to do is not an ordinary murder knife, but also a magic weapon! ”
Chu Junyi's eyes were shining with a glittering light, and his vision was a little blurry under the heat of the tea, but Shen Ninghua still clearly saw the ambition and firmness in his eyes.
"Okay, then this first whetstone, let's start with the Praetorian Guard."
Chu Junyi smiled, got up and carefully hugged Shen Ninghua in his arms: "Ninghua, I will protect you, and I will become the sword in your hand, where the sword points and where your heart goes." ”
Shen Ninghua's heart trembled, only to feel a sour and numb feeling wafting out, his eyes were slightly red, and there was a trace of water at the bottom of his eyes.
investigated the Praetorian Guards, but there was no movement until the emperor ordered the opening of the camp and returned to the palace.
Baili Jinze secretly sent someone to inquire about the Shangshu of the Criminal Department, but the Shangshu of the Criminal Department seemed to be iron-hearted and refused to reveal any content. He could only return to the palace in fear.
The prince received the news, took the news in his hand and went to Ningkun Palace: "Queen Mother, look, this is the news that came back. ”
Zhao Huiying looked at the dense content on the paper, her eyebrows frowned slightly, and she sneered: "The emperor was assassinated, the second prince was injured and disfigured, the fifth prince was grounded, and Shen Ninghua was injured...... Oh, this safari is really auspicious. ”
"Mother, what shall we do?"
"Things are changing too fast, and our people haven't had time to report the news, so let's be calm for a while, wait for the news to come together, and then make a decision, and take static braking as the best policy."
The prince nodded, and there was no better way in his heart than to do it first.
The queen burned the paper clean, looked up and asked Baili Jinyi: "You help the emperor to supervise the country, you must handle everything well, the report that should be reported, and the return of the report, now the emperor must be irritable in his heart, don't hit the muzzle." ”
"Yes, Queen Mother."
The mother and son discussed it, but they didn't want to, and the prince couldn't escape it in the end.
Baili Qingcang took advantage of the prince's disadvantage, and punished him for copying twenty books, and for a while, there was a lot of noise in the palace.
