152. Peak loop turn (1)
Seeing his solemn expression, he didn't dare to slack off, so he quickly jumped sideways and sat on the wheel, turned around, turned back along the way he came, whipped him with a horse whip, and let the horse run fast, and asked anxiously, "Childe, while there is no one, we should leave quickly, why do we have to turn back?" ”
Wang Xuanzhi held the cool bamboo flute with his hand, and there was a moment of chaos in his mind. He recognized the colorless and odorless thing as agar, something boiled from algae, which was often used in the palace to make snacks. This kind of thing is sticky and thick, and when it is hot and soft, it is airtight. The coffin lid is stained with this kind of thing, which means that someone found out that the person in the coffin was faked to death, and he planned to suffocate her completely.
He could indeed go, but if he left, Feng Miao was the only one left in the palace. Wang Xuanzhi knew very well that he had just arrived in Pingcheng, although he was valued by the emperor, but he had not really become an official, and the interrogation of those people could only be to get evidence and put Feng Miao to death.
In the Sogo Palace, Tuoba Hong stood in the middle of the main hall, on the main seat, and sat the Queen Mother. Since the death of Emperor Wencheng, she has not set foot in the Sogo Palace for nearly thirty years. Back then, it was here that Emperor Wencheng pampered her, a lowly slave in Yongxiang, on a whim, and changed the fate of her life.
Concubine Gao and Beihai King Tuoba Shen knelt on the ground, and Tuoba Shen's hands were still firmly bound by ropes. The commander of the Beihai King's personal guard was also bound hand and foot by the two Yulin guards, and he knelt on the left and right.
The overall situation must be that Liu Quan, the internal supervisor, had already sent people to each palace and hall to appease the concubines. But I heard that there was such a big thing in the Sogo Palace, and even the Queen Mother came in person, and no one dared to sleep and be afraid of the cold, so they hurriedly dressed and rushed over. Feng Miao originally refused to come out with Feng Qing, but when she saw the little eunuch who came to Huayin Hall to report the news, she knew that there was no way to hide safely tonight, so she had to change into a simple dress and rush to the Sogo Palace in a sedan chair.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw the concubines standing on the side of the main hall. Lu Qingran glanced at them and said, "These two sisters are really good, they came from the same place in the middle of the night." ”
Feng Qing and Feng Miao had their own concerns, and no one wanted to pay attention to her. Lu Qingran felt bored, swept around the crowd, and asked, "Why doesn't it seem that Sister Zheng didn't come?" She was able to sleep peacefully, and she was not worried about the emperor's safety at all. ”
Yuan Yingyue whispered, "The Shadow Spring Hall where Sister Zheng lives is farther away from here, and there is also a need for more delays on the road. Lu Qingran wanted to say something, and when he heard the empress dowager on the throne speak, he closed his mouth knowingly.
Tuoba Hong had already told the Empress Dowager what had happened. Among the princes left by the first emperor, the empress dowager has always been a little partial to this young son. First, because his maternal family is extraordinary, he needs to be wooed. Second, it is also to use him to contain Tuoba Hong, when Tuoba Hong wanted to set up his own personal guard of the Son of Heaven, the Empress Dowager once revealed that she wanted to change the Beihai King Tuoba to the emperor, forcing the emperor to submit to the softness and kneel down to admit his mistake to the foreign minister of the Fengyi Palace.
"Hong'er, you are already in power, this matter is at your disposal, and the mourning family is only here to watch." The Empress Dowager rubbed her forehead, I don't know if she was woken up in the middle of the night and was in poor spirits, or for some other reason, she looked a little depressed and unhappy.
Tuoba Hong said respectfully and politely, "If there is anything wrong with my grandson, please ask my grandmother to teach me." He turned to face the people in the palace and said loudly, "The personal guards of the King of Beihai trespassed into the Chongguang Palace, but fortunately, the general of the palace arrived in time, so he did not make a big mistake. Tuoba, are you guilty? ”
As soon as the words fell, the hall was silent, and the emperor's attitude was clearly to give the king of Beihai a harsh punishment.
"Your Majesty, my brother is not convinced." The King of Beihai stepped forward on his knees and retorted loudly, "When the prince of the clan comes to the Sogo Palace to meet him, the guards can wait outside the palace with armor and blades, and this has been the case since the founding of the country. The commander of the courtier's personal guard, but when he saw that I hadn't gone out for a long time, he came in to find me, not by forcing his way into the Chongguang Palace. ”
"The Empress Dowager, the concubines are not convinced," Concubine Gao's hair was scattered, and she had completely lost the prestige of the concubine, she did not speak to the emperor, but blindly begged the Empress Dowager, "The emperor said that the concubines made friends with foreign ministers privately, and used the property in the palace to fill their pockets, only a letter from the Langya Wang family as evidence." If the Southern Dynasty Daoyi is used, how can it be used to convict the concubine? ”
Being cried by her like this, the Empress Dowager frowned slightly, "If you have anything to say, you just have to say it to the emperor." ”
"Your Majesty!" Concubine Gao's voice was sharp and high-pitched, as if she had been greatly wronged, "The emperor once explained to me a sentence that if you want to add sin, there is no excuse. Now you're right with Shen'er and Hongu, that's it. No matter how much the palace is wronged, it will be forgotten, but Shen'er is the bloodline of the first emperor and the prince with a fief, how can he be convicted by the emperor's words? If there is no agreement of the prince of the clan, the palace will not accept it! The palace would rather die here on the spot, and go underground to find the emperor and ask why the emperor wanted to mutilate his siblings! ”
Concubine Gao slammed her hand on the ground and shouted loudly, "Emperor Xian, open your eyes and see what we orphans and widows are being bullied now......
The matter was already clearly understood, but Concubine Gao was like a shrew in the market, crying and screaming, but she refused to admit her guilt. The Empress Dowager lowered her eyes, her fingers fiddling with the tea cup in front of her, waiting to see what the emperor would do. Tuoba Hong's face was also a little embarrassed, he had never encountered this kind of scene before.
Feng Miao stood closest to her and kept staring at her firmly. I saw Concubine Gao wipe a handful of tears, and suddenly got up and slammed into the Coiling Dragon Golden Pillar. Feng Miao was shocked, if Concubine Gao really died here, the emperor would definitely fall into the charge of forcing his mother to death, and it would be extremely difficult to deal with the King of Beihai.
The concubines shrank back, lest they avoid it, Aunt Cui and Aunt Ruyi were far away, and they couldn't think about it, Feng Miao took a step forward in front of Concubine Gao. Concubine Gao's strength was extremely strong, and the whole person hit her, and her forehead still hit the golden pillar, knocking out a large bruise, but fortunately, there was no big problem.
Tuoba Hong saw her bump into Feng Miao, took two steps forward, and forced himself to stop, his fingers clattering.
"Concubine Niangniang, if you have any grievances, you should say them one by one, so that people can hear them clearly." Feng Miao took out her handkerchief and helped Concubine Gao gently rub the bruises on her forehead. Her words were gentle, as if she was persuading Concubine Gao, but people could understand that although Concubine Gao shouted fiercely, she didn't make any sense.
At the time of the stalemate, a timid voice suddenly sounded outside the palace gate, "Roujia pays a visit to the Empress Dowager and the Emperor." Everyone turned around and looked at the entrance of the hall, only to see Zheng Roujia wearing a velvet cloak with gold thread, and the tip of her nose was red from the cold, as if she had just come back from a long walk.
"Your Majesty," she took out a letter from her bosom and handed it over with both hands, "The concubine's father has just sent this, please take a look at it." The matter was urgent, and the concubine didn't have time to ask for a decree, so she went to the palace gate to meet with the ministers and ask the emperor to forgive her sins. ”
Tuoba Hong unfolded the letter, hurriedly scanned it, and the whole person was shocked, and threw the letter in front of Concubine Gao, "This letter came at the right time, take a good look at it." Dr. Zheng Xi of Zhongshu, accuse you of two crimes. In the first case, when his daughter Zheng Yingfu entered the palace to be elected, because she bumped into you and the ministers for a private meeting, you asked Guo Quanhai to push her into the water and wanted to drown her. Now that Zheng Yingfu's madness has been cured, identify you as the culprit. ”
"The second one," Tuoba Hong sneered, "Zheng Xi told you and the King of Beihai that they had asked for several tigers from the Lion and Tiger Garden of the Zheng clan in Xingyang, and you instructed the animal trainers of the Zheng clan to feed these tigers with children smoked with ambergris, and when you hunted, you asked someone to send these tigers to Baishan Mountain." Concubine Gao, don't tell me, you don't know what you're talking about. Think about it clearly, whether to listen to me and deal with it now, or whether you must invite a few uncles to negotiate. ”
Hearing the name Zheng Xi, Concubine Gao sat down on the ground in a daze. The head of the Zheng family in Xingyang likes to collect rare and exotic beasts in the world, and people are greedy for money and afraid of death, so Concubine Gao chose Zheng's Lion and Tiger Garden and forced him to take out the tigers and spices that can stimulate the tiger's animal nature. She really didn't expect that Zheng Xi would dare to come forward to denounce her.
In a corner of the hall, Li Rongyu's gaze was firmly fixed on Zheng Roujia's face, as if she wanted to imprint her facial features into the bone marrow.
Tuoba Hong walked back to the middle of the main hall, and said loudly to Li Rongyu, who was standing aside, "Write down my will, Concubine Gao, see the foreign ministers in private, favoritism and greed, read that she is my mother after all, and send it to Baode Buddhist Temple to think, and you will not be allowed to return to Pingcheng for life." The king of Beihai was detailed, and he did not discipline his subordinates effectively, and his personal guards broke into the Chongguang Palace privately, seized the fiefdom, and all the personal guards were submerged in the army of the king of Guangyang. Tuoba himself stayed in the palace and was not allowed to go out for three years. ”
He waved the sleeves of his robe, and his expression was full of unquestionable majesty. Li Rongyu retracted his gaze, wrote down his words word for word, and handed them over to the Central Book Supervisor to write an edict after dawn. The Yulin guards stepped forward and left the Sogo Palace with the three people who were kneeling on the ground.
Tuoba Hong walked to the side of the Empress Dowager, and still said respectfully, "It's me who bothered my grandmother late at night, it's me, grandmother should go back and rest earlier, I told these people to disperse." ”
Feng Miao looked at him from afar, although he couldn't step forward to stand beside him, or even say a word to him, his heart was like holding a hot tea, and the humid heating was rising. This is her husband, even though there are still many restrictions that make him unable to do what he wants, but the royal temperament of killing and decisiveness and looking down on the world has faintly flashed in him.
After a glance, she remembered that there were still others here, afraid that others would find out that she looked strange, so she hurriedly lowered her head, but the corners of her mouth couldn't help but bloom into a smile.
Before the smile was fully unfolded, she heard Feng Qing's voice ringing in the hall, "The concubine also has one thing, she wants to make it clear to the empress dowager and the emperor, the concubine's maidservant Yuye just told the concubine that some suspicious traces were found near the Jing'an Hall tonight." Something happened, Yuye took my token, went to check it first, unexpectedly, found a scandal that concealed the sky and the sea, and defiled the palace, the concubine did not dare to make a private claim, and implored the empress dowager and the emperor to move to the Jing'an Palace and deal with this matter. Yu Ye entered the hall at some point, standing beside her, Feng Qing's smug and resentful gaze swept over Feng Miao's face.
