Chapter 335: You are speechless when asked
"The old minister has evidence! This is a letter written by the national teacher of Lieliang to His Royal Highness Five, please take a look at the emperor. The minister took out a letter from his bosom, but the edges seemed to be a little crippled and grayish.
The emperor took it and glanced at it, and his body immediately exuded a dangerous aura.
The third prince got up at this time and said: "Father, although the fifth emperor brother has always been gentle and soft-hearted, the son believes that the fifth emperor brother will not be so confused, and he also asks his father to investigate this matter." ”
As if he hadn't heard the words of the third prince, the emperor's gaze fell on the minister again, and asked, "Since it was a letter written by the national master of Lieliang to Jing Mofeng, how did you get it?" ”
"The nephew of the old minister took the risk of stealing the letter after His Royal Highness mistakenly thought that the letter had been burned."
The minister's statement also explained the reason why the edge of the letter was mutilated and grayish.
"Jing Mofeng, what do you explain?" The emperor said again, there was already anger hidden in his voice, if this matter was serious......
Jing Mofeng was like a green pine, standing there straight, when the emperor asked him, the gentle smile on his face didn't even disappear, he just said lightly: "It's just a letter, the person who wrote the letter can write to whoever he wants, who can prove that this letter was indeed sent to Mofeng, and who can prove that this letter is indeed from the hands of the national teacher of Lieliang State?" ”
Jing Mofeng asked like this, and everyone's hearts were suddenly surprised, yes, who can prove that this is what kind of national teacher this is, written to Jing Mofeng? Finding someone to write a letter casually can prove that the recipient of the letter collaborated with the enemy and treason, which is too child's play, not to mention whether the letter was really delivered to Jing Mofeng, who can prove it?
As if he knew what everyone was thinking, the minister hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, He Xing'an, the nephew of the old minister, can prove that this letter is indeed obtained from His Royal Highness the Fifth Highness!" ”
"Where is He Xing'an now?"
Hearing the emperor's question, the minister replied, "He is waiting outside the palace." ”
When the emperor heard this, he glanced at Chen Debu beside him, and Chen Debu immediately shouted: "Xuan He Xing'an is here." ”
A young general walked in quickly, knelt down in the hall, and said, "The last general, He Xing'an, knocks to see Your Majesty." ”
"He Xing'an, do you know what I called you to the temple?"
He Xing'an bowed his head and said, "The last general knows that it is for the collusion between His Royal Highness and the National Teacher of Lieliang State. The last general was guilty, and the end of the day was a little too drunk, and at the instigation of a few comrades, he had the courage to ask why the Fifth Highness didn't order the siege of the city, and he didn't want to go behind the handsome tent because he was drunk. ”
He Xing'an lowered his head again, and then continued: "The Tianli Dynasty does not have the position of national teacher, and the last general is in his heart, looking through the gap, he saw a person wearing a black cloak, and he couldn't see his appearance clearly, and took out a letter to the Fifth Highness, and the Fifth Highness first said a few words to the person, so that the national teacher could rest assured that he would definitely not wave his army to attack the city, and then sent the person away, and then returned to open the letter. ”
"After reading it, His Royal Highness wanted to burn the letter, but because he was in a hurry, he left the camp without seeing the letter burn with his own eyes, and the last general immediately entered the tent and stole the letter."
"You talk nonsense!" Immediately, there were generals who had followed Jing Mofeng into battle to kill the enemy, jumped up and shouted: "The Fifth Highness led us to kill the enemy in blood, and personally hit that Rong Shengjie, how could it be possible to collude with the Lieliang Kingdom!" ”
As early as when the minister said that Jing Mofeng was secretly talking to some national teacher, these generals couldn't help it, but Jing Mofeng kept signaling with his eyes to let them calm down, and they would keep silent, and at this time, seeing these people slandering Jing Mofeng again and again, they couldn't help it anymore.
It's just that the person who opened his mouth didn't think about it, he was eager to explain to Jing Mofeng, but his sentence hit Rong Shengjie hard, which coincided with what the previous minister said, Rong Shengjie was hit hard, and there was no one in the Lieliang Kingdom, but Jing Mofeng besieged but did not attack, which proved from the side that Jing Mofeng had ulterior motives.
The third prince said gloomily: "Since Rong Shengjie has been hit hard, why don't you attack the city?" It's pretty puzzling. ”
"You ......," the general glared angrily.
At this time, I heard a voice come slowly: "Even I, a woman, can hear it, this General He Xing'an's words are really full of loopholes, if you adults can't hear it, I really can't imagine how you judge cases on weekdays, will there be many unjust cases?" ”
Everyone followed the prestige, and saw Ling Qingrui unhurriedly poured herself a glass of fruit wine, and slowly put it into her mouth, as if she didn't say the words just now, and didn't notice everyone's gaze.
"Ignorant women and children, what do you know, and dare to talk too much in front of the saint!" He Xing'an was indeed a soldier stationed at the border pass, and he didn't know Ling Qingrui, so he immediately reprimanded angrily.
"Heh......" Ling Qingrui sneered, "Even I, an ignorant woman and child, can hear the mistakes and omissions in your words, and you still want to deceive the emperor?" ”
The emperor's gaze swept from Prince De silently, and then fell on Ling Qingrui, and after a while, he said: "Since the county lord An Jin said that He Xing'an's words are full of loopholes, it is better for An Jin to tell you where the loopholes are." ”
"An Jin obeys." Ling Qingrui got up and walked slowly towards He Xing'an.
He Xing'an only knew Ling Qingrui's identity at this time, and there was a trace of panic in his heart, and then he calmed down, what about the county lord, she was not a boudoir woman who didn't know anything.
"General He, An Jin has a few words to ask General He, I wonder if General He can answer for An Jin?"
He Xing'an swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said: "Although the county lord asks, what the last general said is true, so he is naturally not afraid of the county lord asking." ”
"Good!" Ling Qingrui drew a faint smile on her lips and asked, "General He said that you drank too much that day and inadvertently walked behind the tent before you heard about the conspiracy between His Royal Highness and others?" ”
"That's true."
"There is something unknown to the lord of this county, isn't the handsome tent set up in the army? Even if there are no sergeants around, how can there be no camps for other soldiers around, and how can there be no soldiers patrolling, and no one will see you? ”
He Xing'an hesitated for a moment before saying: "It was the middle of the night, and only the patrol soldiers passed by occasionally, and they didn't find the last general. ”
Ling Qingrui nodded and said: "What General He said is also reasonable, then I would like to ask again, since the Fifth Highness can hit Rong Shengjie hard, and the martial arts must be very good, how can he not find out that the general is a drunken person?" ”
"This ......," He Xing'an rolled his eyes, "Maybe His Highness the Fifth Highness only cared about conspiring with that person, so he didn't notice it for a while." ”
Ling Qingrui nodded again and said, "Hmm." You said that the Fifth Highness first promised that the man would never attack the city, and then opened the letter, right? ”
He Xing'an nodded.
Ling Qingrui said again: "Since the national teacher of the Lieliang State wrote a letter to the Fifth Highness, it means that this matter has not been properly discussed, and the Fifth Highness has not opened the letter, how do you know what kind of benefits the national teacher promised, why did the Fifth Highness promise not to attack the city first, what if the Lieliang State does not honor the benefits?" ”
He Xing'an began to sweat on his head, but he said forcefully: "Since it is a conspiracy, how can the last general know?" Maybe His Royal Highness has already received some of the benefits in the early stage. ”
"You also said that it was a conspiracy, how could the Fifth Highness not know what a great crime it is to collaborate with the enemy and commit treason, and how could he not send someone to guard it when he was plotting? How long does it take to burn the letters, and what kind of urgency does the Fifth Highness have that he can't even wait for this little bit of time, and leaves in a hurry, resulting in you stealing the letter? Even if His Royal Highness was really in a hurry to leave at that time, and he couldn't see the ashes burned by the letter when he came back, how could he not be suspicious, and how could he not look for you who were instigated by someone, but did not enter the handsome tent to see him! ”
Ling Qingrui's series of questions made He Xing'an unable to answer them completely.
Collaborating with the enemy and treason, what a big crime, even if Jing Mofeng is the prince, it is also a capital crime, how can Jing Mofeng act so imprudently!
Ling Qingrui didn't wait for He Xing'an to answer, but just bowed lightly to the boss and said, "Your Majesty, An Jin has finished asking, what is going on, I believe the emperor has already made a judgment in his heart." ”
He Xing'an was forced to be anxious, and kowtowed straight and said: "Your Majesty, the last general doesn't know about these things, but the letter was indeed stolen by the last general from the five highnesses, and the last general also heard with his own ears that the five highnesses promised the other party that they would never wave their troops to attack the city, in fact, it was indeed just a siege, not a siege, and hundreds of thousands of troops could testify to the last general." ”
After a pause, He Xing'an said again: "Maybe...... Maybe the Fifth Highness is doing this on purpose, so that people won't believe it even if they notice it. ”
"Well, what General He said is also very reasonable, but I don't know if in this letter, the person who wrote the letter called himself a national teacher, or how would General He be so sure that it was written by the national teacher of Lieliang?" Ling Qingrui didn't argue with him, but asked instead.
He Xing suddenly relaxed, and replied as a matter of course: "The last general has read the letter, and it has the private seal of the national teacher of Lieliang on it. ”
"Oh? Private printing. Ling Qingrui raised her eyebrows, "Since it is a private seal, there must not be too many people who have seen it, even if it is engraved with the name of the national teacher, I am afraid that ordinary people will not know that it is his private seal." So, when and where did General He see it, and how did he know that it was the private seal of the national teacher of Lieliang State? ”
The two words were deliberately aggravated by Ling Qingrui, He Xingan was stunned all of a sudden, and said "The last general, the last general ......", but he couldn't say why, so he reacted, he fell into the trap in Ling Qingrui's words, but it was too late to regret it.
Ling Qingrui didn't wait for him to answer clearly, and asked again: "Who can prove that the letter is indeed from the hands of the national teacher of the Lieliang Kingdom, and not a fake by someone else?" ”
Unexpectedly, just as Ling Qingrui's words fell, a voice came: "This king can prove it!" ”
