Chapter 80: The Scapegoat

"Yes, that's the ......" pointed back, but found that the grandson who was still standing beside him just now was gone, and he immediately understood that he had been deceived by that guy! Gritting his teeth with hatred, Chang'an Wuhua was full of resentment, but he had nowhere to vent, "Damn, he played it!" ”

"Got things settled? If you have a clear solution, let's get down to business! Baili Lan retreated from the irrelevant people, called Chang'an Wuhua to his side, and said, "This time, I want to let the ballads of the Qiu family's unjust case circulate in every corner of the capital, even if it is a bluff, I want to make Shu Yichen feel the pressure." ”

His eyes rolled around, and Chang'an Wuhua smiled, "I understand, it turns out that Xiao Lanlan doesn't believe in it." That's right, that man is full of calculations at first glance, so he naturally has to be on guard. But just singing ballads, will he have a sense of urgency? Why don't I find a few beggars and homeless people, gather together, and write a joint book? Anyway, in the end, we can't find the name that signed it, as long as we are strong enough. ”

"Your suggestion can be adopted, but you have to remember that the person we dealt with this time is not Su Yichen, but the emperor!"

Chang'an Wuhua was shocked in his heart, looked at Baili Lan with wide eyes, and said in his heart...... Sure enough, there is a character!

"The reason why the emperor attacked Lord Qiu back then, on the one hand, was because Lord Qiu did speak disrespectfully and offended the emperor. On the other hand, it is because of King Lanling. The emperor is very shy of King Lanling, so the autumn master will be severely punished by the emperor. Coincidentally, Shu Yiling used Lord Qiu to establish his authority, and on the surface, it seemed to be a whipping of those who did not obey his discipline. Before, we have been misled by misinformation, thinking that Su Yiling is the mastermind behind this case, but at present, it seems that the emperor wants to get rid of Lord Qiu. ”

"Isn't that tricky?" After hearing this, Qiu Shuang said worriedly, "If the emperor insists that Lord Qiu is guilty, then no matter what efforts we make, it will not be effective." ”

Bai Lilan shook her head and said with a resolute expression, "No, this time and that time. Now that the situation is different, what is the benefit of the emperor's blind insistence? It's better to make a statement, let the two brothers Shu Yichen and Shu Yiling fight, and he can get a moment of comfort. Moreover, at that time, the emperor was unreasonable to kill Lord Qiu, and now someone is willing to overturn the case, just give him a step down, so that the emperor can naturally get rid of the notoriety of wrongly killing loyal ministers, and by the way, he will find a scapegoat to bear this mistake instead of him. Therefore, the emperor will definitely let Shu Yichen overturn the case, and he will do it beautifully. The reason why I want to make Su Yichen feel the pressure is to make the outside world think that Su Yichen is going to complete this reversal of the case, not to kill Su Yiling. ”

"Although the county lord's plan is good, who will be the scapegoat?"

"If I'm right, that candidate will be Su Yiling."

"Lord Ling?" Qiu Shuang's fingers tapped on her forehead, frowned and said, "If you don't handle it well, won't you lose both?" ”

"You can rest assured, the emperor will not do useless work, since he let his two sons fight each other, he will definitely lose one side. Shu Yiling has been in the limelight too much recently, and it is impossible for the emperor to let him dominate all the time, so the case of Lord Qiu is a good opportunity. You can rest assured that as long as Shu Yichen starts to investigate, the emperor will definitely stand on Su Yichen's side, and soon, another round of wall will be pushed by everyone. ”

Xia Yu listened to it for a long time, and finally had some eyebrows, and when he heard Baili Lan say this, he asked strangely, "If it is really as the county lord said, the emperor will abandon the prince Ling, then the next battle, won't it be the turn of the prince?" In the end, does the emperor want to clean up all the princes? So why did he give birth to so many sons? ”

A series of questions, although they did not help this incident, made Bai Lilan suddenly realize a problem.

"It is precisely because he is his own son that he should be on guard. Haven't you heard of a saying, day and night, home thieves are difficult to prevent. Often the people who hurt you the most are the people closest to you. Maybe this time, we can add fuel to the fire, make the situation more chaotic, and save the emperor from thinking about the former prince in his heart. I've worked hard to set up this game, but I don't want to cheapen that useless man! ”

Seeing that the master and servant wanted to have a good chat, Chang An Wuhua couldn't interject at all, so he sat at the table with a look of pity, fiddling with the lid on the teacup.

"Chang'an Wuhua, when do you think the emperor will announce the results of the treatment?"

Suddenly hearing his name, Chang An Wuhua was stunned, then scratched his head, and smiled ashamedly, "Hehe, I was deserting just now, and I didn't hear what you said." ”

"Caught deserting, you can still be so frank, should you say that you don't have a heart and lungs, or are you cheeky?" Picking up the teacup and taking a sip, Baili Lan said helplessly, "Forget it, if you leave your people here, you can't keep your heart." Let's go down and get busy, but remember, no matter what method is used, we must make the entire capital play up the momentum of justifying the name of the Qing officials. ”

"Don't worry, this little thing is on me!" Anything else, Chang'an Wuhua didn't dare to say, but he spread gossip, then he was the best, Chang'an Wuhua could pass on the news unconsciously, making it difficult to distinguish between true and false.

Although the task assigned was to act in his true colors, Chang An Wuhua was still happy, humming a little song and returning to the front hall, and followed a few guys to busy with business.

Looking at Chang'an Wuhua's back, Chunfeng said with emotion, "Actually, it's not bad to be like Chang'an Wuhua, it's simple to live all day, as long as a little happy thing happens, you will be satisfied." It is said that if you are wise and foolish, it seems that the same is true of Wuhua Gongzi. ”

Hearing this, Bai Lilan snorted coldly, with a cold smile on her lips, "Hmph, he's better than anyone else!" ”

***

As Baili Lan expected, after Shu Yichen began to investigate the case, it didn't take long to find out many of the masterminds behind the scenes. Back then, these people were jealous of Lord Qiu's talent, and envied that he was deeply loved by the emperor, so they moved their minds to frame them, thinking that as long as they got rid of Lord Qiu, these people's careers would be smoother. Immediately afterwards, several adults who colluded with each other were exposed to scandals such as corruption and perversion of the law, accepting bribes, and disregarding human lives. However, the officials who made such a big mistake not only did not do anything at all, but on the contrary, within a year, their positions were rapidly promoted, and they looked like things were going well.

Looking at several adults, it is not difficult to find that behind them, there is the same person, that is Su Yiling! All of a sudden, all kinds of unfavorable news pointed to Shu Yiling, and even the abolition of the prince was related to Shu Yiling. After the emperor got the news, he was furious, and ordered Shu Yichen to re-investigate the case of Lord Qiu that year, and imprisoned Shu Yiling in the palace of King Ling, restricting his access.

It seemed that it was just a day's time, and the front of King Ling's mansion suddenly became quiet, not only the official eunuchs disappeared, but even the vendors selling steamed buns disappeared.

Sitting in the palace, Bai Xuan'er was full of sadness, she couldn't figure it out, why did the emperor just say a word, those people were like hiding from snakes and scorpions, and they didn't dare to come to Lingwangfu? It seems that what Bai Lilan said is right, those people are just tending to be inflammatory, spitting lotus flowers, and running faster than anyone else when they are really in danger!

Hate broke off a plum blossom in front of her, but her fingers were accidentally cut by the thick branches, which made her scream.

"Princess, you're all right!" Seeing this, the maidservant who had just come over hurriedly ran over to check. After discovering the bloodstains, he couldn't help but be shocked, covered the wound with a handkerchief, and hurriedly said, "Ah, it's broken." Wait, princess, the slave will go to the doctor! ”

"It's just a little bit of skin, why make all the fuss." Bai Xuan'er was upset and didn't want to have one more person around, so she impatiently ordered, "Okay, you don't need to serve here, let's go down first!" ”

The maid thought that she was annoying the princess, so she held the bird's nest soup she had just brought in front of Bai Xuan'er and said, "Yes, the slave and maid will retreat." The bird's nest soup will be put here for you first. ”

"I don't drink it, I take it all down......"

"But ......," the maid said, looking at the bird's nest soup placed next to her, "you have no food in the morning, and now it is almost evening." Anyway, you take a sip first, and if you continue to boil like this, your body will be bad. ”

"Now that it's broken, no one will know! Those little people, now I don't know who they are going to to offer their courtesy! The more she talked, the more upset she became, Bai Xuan'er pushed the bird's nest to the ground, making a crisp cracking sound.

Su Yiling happened to pass by here, and when she heard the sound, she came over to check. Seeing Bai Xuan'er sitting there angrily, full of mess, she couldn't help but smile and asked, "What's wrong with Princess Ling, demeanor, keep your demeanor." ”

Seeing that Su Yiling came over, Bai Xuan'er put on a little bird appearance, pouted and complained, "Lord Wang, did you say that you did something wrong, Lord Zhang and Master Li did take refuge in you before, but there are more people who have taken refuge in you, and everyone can't have an accident, it must be counted on the head of the prince!" Nachen is really the prince, the emperor didn't let him check, what kind of diligence he has. Even if he likes to check, don't splash dirty water on you. It's a shame that I'm still on good terms with Princess Chen, and I visited her a few days ago. You men are more merciless than women! ”

Hearing Bai Xuan'er's words, Su Yiling frowned and asked, "Have you been looking for Baililan?" ”

"Yes, I was going to go to the palace courtyard, but the third sister-in-law was in a good mood that day, and called me to the palace of Chen, as well as the concubine Ou who had just recovered from a serious illness, and the three of them chatted together for a long time, and finally personally sent me out of the palace."

Seeing Bai Xuan'er's beautiful expression, Su Yiling couldn't help but laugh and said, "My stupid princess, I don't know if I've been used." ”

"Utilization?" Bai Xuan'er looked at Su Yiling blankly, unable to understand the meaning of his words.

"yes. Haven't you ever thought about why Baili Lan invited you to King Chen's Mansion? During that time, the third brother was being snubbed by his father, and he was trying to regain his father's favor. Others are avoiding, you are good, take the initiative to post the past, of course Baili Lan has to take the initiative to show goodwill, and make people mistakenly think that I have a connection with the third brother. ”

"It turns out that Baili Lan still has such a mind!" Bai Xuan'er said angrily, "It's in vain that I treat her so well, I haven't seen her for a long time and still miss her, but what about her, she knows how to calculate me." No, I can't swallow this breath, I must come back! ”
