298 The Plague of Paganism

"What ulterior motives? Who has ulterior motives? The identity of the assassin has not yet been clarified, so you will unanimously accuse the king of Qingning for rebellion. With such a quick response, you sing me and, is it possible that you have been prepared for it? Yuwen Xuanzheng took a step forward, his eyes splitting.

"Your Majesty, Weichen doesn't dare, Weichen is a loyal monarch and loves the Lord, Your Majesty is injured, the pain is in the heart of the minister, and I hate to suffer for Your Majesty......"

"You guys?" Yuwen Xuanzheng snorted coldly: "At that time, when the assassins attacked, I and the imperial brothers and the Dragon Wing Army tried our best to protect my father, what were you doing?" Cui Lu, where are you hiding? Fang Li, who was pulling my sleeve and trembling into a ball at that time? And you, Ji Qiang, why was the emperor's arm injured? Didn't you block a sword for you? When the catastrophe is coming, you are afraid one by one, this will be the danger to subside, but a few of you jump out to frame meritorious people, what are your intentions? ”

"The minister is wronged! The emperor, the ministers have no other intentions, and ask the emperor to learn from ......"

Those who have just spoken like a river and accused others with their words will all fall to the ground and weep.

"You have no other intentions, could it be that you are instructed by others?"

Yuwen Xuanzheng's sentence pointed the sword at the crown prince in the imperial capital.

Yuwen Xuanlang's eyebrows tightened.

He has always watched this chaos coldly. He saw that it was the prince's people who wanted to take advantage of this matter to bring down King Qingning, and he was secretly glad in his heart, if so, the fourth brother could save a lot of strength after the fall of the prince, and King Qingning did not move, and he was angry, did he think that the Qing people were self-purifying, or was there any control to fight back?

Just as he was guessing, it was Su Jinling who came out to turn the situation around.

He was a little confused, when did Su Jinling get so close to King Qingning? Doesn't she know that Yuwen Xuanyi is the biggest threat to the fourth brother?

He knew that the fourth brother had to let her participate in the fight in order to end this kind of struggle as soon as possible, he didn't understand it at first, but later found out that this was a kind of protection, the fourth brother really thought about her everywhere, could it be that she didn't understand, but hated the fourth brother, and turned to help King Qingning?

His mind was confused, and he hurriedly came out: "Father, I tried our best to protect it, and the heavens and the earth can be learned, and Lord Cui and the others are also loyal to the monarch and love the lord, and they are too frightened, so it is inevitable that they will be worried for a while." In fact, no matter who they are, they all hope that the emperor will live a long and healthy life......"

"Your Highness the Seventh, you must not offend anyone." Yuwen Xuanzheng sneered, turned around and bowed down: "Your Majesty, the matter has come to this point, Erchen hopes to find out the matter and return everyone's innocence!" lest any man be a good man in vain......"

"Yuwen Xuanzheng, you ......"

"King Yu drove to ......"

As soon as Yuwen Xuanlang's words came out, a report came.

Su Jinling hurriedly followed the prestige, but saw that the crowd automatically dispersed a passage, and between the dragon wings standing tall on both sides, a snow-colored figure came.

The mountain wind blew the sleeves of his robe, the hem of his clothes, the sound of hunting, and the long hair of Rumo also rolled up, but his steps were steady and his face was clear. This kind of cold and sassy elegance is unparalleled in the world.

Su Jinling saw that he was really fine, and his heart was relieved, but there was a wave of heat surging into his eyes. She hurriedly hung her head and bit her lip.

Yuwen Xuanyi took every trace of her into his eyes, and the originally warm smile gradually stiffened, leaving only a trace of laughter at the corner of his lips.

Everyone didn't pay any attention to the movement here, and they all stared at Yuwen Xuancang who was gradually approaching with anticipation, but saw that the pair of cold and sharp eyes only fell in one place, and they just followed it, and their eyes just touched the little palace maid who seemed to be thinking about her heart, and King Yu over there had already taken a salute: "See the emperor." ”

Yuwen Rongtian closed his eyes slightly, as if he was infinitely tired: "How has the identity of the assassin been checked?" ”

It turned out that he was investigating the origin of the assassin, and Su Jinling secretly let out a sigh. Indeed, when it comes to torture, who could be more suitable than him? Last fall, he was imprisoned, but King Xiang did not torture him, in addition to considering his identity, which is probably an important reason. However, seeing that his face was calm, how did he learn the truth about the Assassin?

"Your Majesty, the assassin is a person from the Immortal Sect in the south......"

King Yu's expression was dignified, his tone was not hurried, and the suspicions of the listeners gradually resolved, and then they turned their heads and ears.

Nanlin Fengxian Sect, has been confronting the imperial court, and nine out of ten assassinations in the past have been from his hands, and many important ministers in the court have been poisoned. Its methods are ruthless and treacherous, and there are many strange demons, which is difficult to guard, and in recent years, there has been an extremely mysterious sect leader, who is good at using many unheard of demon Gu techniques to control his subordinates, and secretly recruits troops and horses, and acts out of nowhere, and the court has also secretly made people investigate, and when they learned that the nest sent people to encircle and suppress, the originally optimistic house and people disappeared together.

Such a strange miracle made the Fengxian Sect famous among the people, and the people rumored that the Fengxian Sect was all immortals. They also played the banner of "doing the right thing for heaven", and their intention was extremely obvious, that is, to take the throne and replace him. Because of this kind of momentum, the people's hearts are occasionally unstable, and the people's uprising caused by the locust plague last year is the result of fanning the flames in the shadows of the Fengxian Sect, but fortunately, Emperor Jingyuan has been in power for so many years, ruled Qingming, and calmed the chaos and disaster relief in time, so it did not cause a catastrophe.

But the tree wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop, and the spark can also burn the prairies, how can you give up easily with the temptation of the seat above ten thousand people? So this time, he took advantage of Emperor Jingyuan's trip to worship the sky and ambushed him at the altar of Huayun Mountain.

The shadow hermit is accustomed to hiding in the clouds and mist at night, without breath and formless, and he is unconscious, so he cannot be noticed, and when the sun rises, the body gathers in an instant, and the mind reappears, and suddenly turns into a "heavenly soldier" who falls from the sky, which is the killing tool commonly used by the Fengxian Sect in the past year.

It is precisely because people think so that it is not easy to succeed in stabbing at night, and after a night of nervousness, stay until dawn, and see the rising sun in the east and the glow of the sun, there will be relaxation and joy, and act at this time, do the opposite, and let the other party be caught off guard and chaotic, which is a smart move.

Su Jinling was like a fantasy, but looking at everyone's fear, there was a slight understanding...... It turned out to be just a simple assassination incident, how could she think about it so complicated and suspect the emperor......

She peeked at the emperor, but saw that the emperor's eyelids were embedded in a crack, and he was looking at her.

She hurriedly lowered her head.

This sucks!

My mind was confused, and I didn't know when everyone had dispersed. One hand helped her up, but it was Yuwen Xuanyi.

“…… In fact, I don't argue because I knew the identity of the assassin, and I also knew that King Yu would definitely investigate it, because if I was suspected of it, he would not be able to escape the involvement, and I had always been considered to be at odds with him, and he had no reason to protect me. It's just that Cui Lu and the others really can't bear it, thinking that in this way, in addition to the thorn in the eye of the prince, they may kill two birds with one stone, but they don't want this to be an opportunity for them to 'perform'. There are people who know their intentions as well as you know, but they don't move. Imagine what the effect would be when the truth suddenly came out after they behaved? What will happen to them if they confuse the public and fall into the ground? According to King Yu's methods, he doesn't have to come back so late, what do you think he is for? ”

Su Jinling looked at him in disbelief, wondering why he was telling her this.

Yuwen Xuanyi smiled faintly: "If there is a next time, don't stand in front of me again." I'm going to be fine, and even if there's something, there's a way to solve it, you ...... Rest assured. ”

The last sentence is very light, but it is extremely heavy on the heart. She couldn't help but wonder herself, it turned out that she had been worried about him?

raised his eyes, but saw him smiling slightly behind her.

Turned......

Not far away, Yuwen Xuancang stood with his hands in his hands, his expression was cold, his narrowed eyes covered all emotions, like an ice sculpture, only the blue sapphire between his eyebrows was shining, and the hem of his robe was also slightly fluttering in the wind.

She was a little flustered, and when she turned back, she saw that the ice-colored figure had already flown away.

"Miss Jinling, the emperor called you." Wu Liuqi waved at her.

Oh no, is the emperor going to settle accounts with her?

He tilted his head slightly and glanced at the person behind him...... A corner of snow white floats on the edge of sight.

Closed his gaze, infinitely worried, but walked towards the emperor quickly.

Yuwen Rongtian leaned next to the altar and watched her coming, his eyes deep.

"Is the emperor okay? Is it badly hurt? She looked cautiously at the embroidered dragon sleeves that covered the bandages.

"Only now do you think you're worried about me? I would like to ask you, who gave you the courage to speak like this to the important ministers of the court? ”

Su Jinling felt that the emperor's gaze was looking behind her...... Because of his disagreement with the emperor's political views, Yuwen Xuancang often collided with the emperor in front of the ministers of civil and military affairs in the court, and the emperor thought it was ......

She hurriedly knelt on the ground, gritted her teeth, and said clearly: "It's the emperor." ”

"Is it me?" Yuwen Rong's eyebrows sank, and his tone seemed to be surprised and funny.

"Yes. In fact, what Master Cui and others said, even the slaves and maids felt that this was inappropriate, and the emperor must have been aware of it, but it was because King Qingning was the son of the emperor, and it was difficult to speak for him, so he ......"

"So, you're in a hurry, and you're thinking about it?"

"Slaves don't dare."

"Don't you dare? People who have always been greedy for life and afraid of death are suddenly bold today, and they must have relied on it, and I can't help but think deeply......"

"If the slave and maid have something to rely on, the only thing the slave can rely on is the emperor......"

"Me again?"

Su Jinling bit her lip: "The emperor once said that he regarded the slave maid as his daughter, and the slave maid thought, what father would really punish his daughter ruthlessly?" ”

"Are you going to say 'the emperor is a golden mouth' so that I can't blame you heavily?"

"Slaves don't dare to ......"

"But don't forget, the prince is guilty of the same crime as the common people."

"Just as Lord Cui suspects that King Qingning is the mastermind behind this assassination, he actually has a heart of loyalty to the monarch and love for the master, and the slave maid also has the same mind, imagine if the prince is convicted with just a few words, wouldn't he let the real murderer and wronged the good people?"
