Chapter 324: Investigate the Truth of the Matter

As soon as he heard that this matter was related to the Yan Wangfu, Chu Zhuangyan felt the seriousness of the situation even more, and at this time, Tuobalie's letter was also handed to the imperial study, Chu Zhuangyan began to draft the decree after reading it with a gloomy face, and handed it over to the eunuch after it was prepared, it seems that this matter will not be peaceful.

The reactions of the people who received Chu Zhuangyan's holy decree were different, Tuoba Lie regarded this as a sign of weakness by Chu Zhuangyan, and Chu Ruoyan and Li Luobing really realized that a catastrophe might be coming.

This matter made a big fuss, even if Chu Zhuangyan wanted to cover it up, there was no way, he could only summon Li Luobing and others, as well as King Qin, Tuoba Lie, and some ministers to the imperial study.

The already small imperial study was crowded by these people, Chu Zhuangyan sat on the main seat, and in the middle were Tuoba Lie, King Yan, King Qin and others.

There were many ministers gathered around these people, and they were all discussing the matter in low voices. Because of Tuoba Lie's deliberate incitement, this news spread very widely in the capital.

At the same time as the rumors spread, several versions came out, but most of the versions were aimed at Li Luobing, and most of the content said that she used her medical skills to harm Li Luoxia's child, so people paid more attention to Chu Ruoyao and Li Luobing.

When they first entered the palace, the two didn't feel anything, but after coming into contact with the eyes of the ministers, they realized that things were far more complicated than they imagined.

"Looks like we can't go back today." Chu Ruoyao lowered her head and said in Li Luobing's ear. Li Luobing looked around and Chu Zhuangyan's expression, and could feel obvious hostility.

And Tuoba Lie's face was more smug than hostile.

"It's okay, I'm adaptable." That's all she can say.

Only a few people knew that Li Luoxia was pregnant, and later she was brought to another hospital by herself. Although he took good care of her, people will only think that they will take the opportunity to take revenge, and they will definitely have doubts about themselves.

"It seems that King Yan and Princess Yan are not at peace in their hearts, and they haven't said anything yet, so they started communicating in private first." Tuoba Lie watched the two of them speak, and his tone was smug.

The surrounding ministers looked at Tuoba Lie's arrogant appearance, and they all felt annoyed in their hearts, and then they all transferred this annoyance to King Yan and Princess Yan in the middle.

In their opinion, the two of them were to blame for this, if it weren't for them, it would be impossible for the Mingyue Kingdom to provoke the people of the Izumo Kingdom, and this Fierce Lord would not be so arrogant.

"Why isn't this the case with Lord Lie? Our emperor of the Bright Moon Kingdom has not yet spoken, and you, the prince of the Izumo Kingdom, are a little impatient. Chu Ruoyao sneered at Tuoba Lie.

Tuoba Lie was speechless by Chu Ruoyao's words, so he had to snort coldly and close his mouth.

"I already know about it, but Aiqing may not know much about it, Lord Lie, just talk about it!" Chu Zhuangyan said with a gloomy face.

"Since the emperor has spoken, then the king has spoken." Tuoba Lie told what happened, hid the fact that he and Liu Manping insisted on letting Li Luoxia leave, and focused on the other courtyard.

"Luo Xia's health was not good, and she was taken to the courtyard by Princess Yan without permission, during this period, everyone didn't know where Luo Xia was, Princess Yan kept saying that it was for Luo Xia's good, but now it has become like this."

As soon as Tuobalie's words of reversing right and wrong came out, the fire in Li Luobing's heart rose instantly, he didn't say that he forcibly took Li Luoxia away, nor did he say that the road was bumpy, and he actually splashed all the dirty water on his body.

"Princess Yan is so excited? This king has reason to suspect that Luo Xia's child's death has something to do with you. Tuoba continued to talk.

Li Luobing glared at Tuoba Lie angrily, when there was no such thing before, Tuoba Lie looked like a decent man and gentleman, and as soon as this incident came out, he immediately changed his face.

"Why didn't Lord Lie say that it was you and Liu Manping who forcibly took Luo Xia away from the other courtyard?"

"Forcibly taken away?" Tuoba Lie smiled, "Did Princess Yan forget, but Luo Xia took the initiative to go with us in the first place." ”

Tuoba Lie looked at the ministers around him as he spoke, everyone had been stunned by what he said since Tuoba Lie spoke, and now they watched him and Princess Yan arguing non-stop, and they kept thinking about which side was the right one.

"Okay, let's not talk about it yet." When Li Luobing wanted to speak again, Chu Ruoyan gently pressed her shoulder, signaling her not to answer Tuoba Lie's words for the time being.

The current Lie King is invincible, and there is no chance of winning an argument with him at this time.

Seeing that Li Luobing stopped talking, Tuoba Lie straightened his clothes and stopped.

"What did all Aiqing hear," Chu Zhuangyan next to him spoke at this time, "I have called you here today to let you think about how to deal with this matter. ”

"This ...... ministers, you look at me, I look at you, and I can't make any suggestions at all."

On one side is the fierce prince of Izumo Kingdom, and on the other side is the king of Yan, no matter which side he supports, he may be secretly remembered in his heart, but if he doesn't say it, there is no way to face Chu Zhuangyan.

"What's there to worry about," Tuoba Lie said loudly, "As the saying goes, killing pays for life, since Luo Xia's child died because of Princess Yan, then it would be good to let Princess Yan pay for her life." ”

What the? Die? Even the surrounding ministers couldn't stop talking when they heard these two words, not to mention Li Luobing and Chu Ruoyao.

Chu Ruoyao looked at Tuoba Lie's eyes, he seemed to be avenging Li Luoxia, but he actually had his own thoughts in his heart. If the emperor really killed Li Luobing, it would cause a lot of commotion in Mingyue Kingdom.

The more chaotic the Bright Moon Country is, the more beneficial it will be to Izumo Province. This Lie Wang Ye looks impulsive, but in fact he is extremely shrewd.

Listening to Tuoba Lie's words, even Chu Zhuangyan felt that this request was too much.

"Lord Lie, you are about to pay for your life when you open your mouth and close your mouth, but I don't know where the baby and Li Luoxia are? I can't help you without proof. Chu Zhuangyan also had a headache about this matter, and he wanted to try to make the impact of this matter as small as possible.

"Evidence? There was a doctor and a stable woman at that time, which is naturally evidence, or did you not want to give the king an explanation? If this matter is resolved, this king will have to ask for an explanation from Mingyue Province in the name of Izumo Province. ”

As soon as Tuoba Lie's words came out, the hearts of everyone present sank. According to the meaning of Tuobalie's words, if this matter does not satisfy him, then the Izumo Province is very likely to start a war with the Mingyue Kingdom.

The Bright Moon Kingdom is now suffering from internal and external troubles, and once it really starts a war, it is likely to be vulnerable, and it will not even be long before it will be completely occupied by the Izumo Kingdom.

Just now, some ministers were still hesitating, thinking that it was a bit too much to let Li Luobing pay for his life, but now that Tuoba Lie's words were finished, everyone felt that letting Li Luobing pay for his life was the best way.

This can not only appease Tuoba Lie, but more importantly, avoid the possibility of war between the two countries.

"Father, the emperor can't" Chu Ruoyan saw that Chu Zhuangyan had the idea of agreeing, and hurriedly opened his mouth to stop him.

"There are still many details of the matter that have not been investigated clearly, and such a hasty decision cannot be made just based on the words of the Lie Prince."

If Chu Zhuangyan agreed to Tuoba Lie at this time, then no matter how hard they tried, there would be no way to recover it. As long as Chu Zhuangyan didn't agree to Tuoba Lie, then they still had a chance.

"Isn't that obvious? How else does King Yan want to investigate? Oh, this king forgot, this is your princess Yan, and it's normal for you to defend her. ”

Tuoba Lie was bent on provoking chaos between the Mingyue Kingdom, and when he spoke, he was aggressive, he wanted to put Li Luobing to death, if Chu Zhuangyan didn't agree, then he had every reason to attack the Mingyue Kingdom, no matter which way he wouldn't suffer.

"What does King Qin have to say?" Chu Zhuangyan put his eyes on Chu Ruoyang next to him.

From the time he entered the imperial study to the present, he has not said a word on the side, and even when Li Luobing quarreled with Tuoba Lie, he did not react.

"Your Majesty, the ministers thought it was ...... I think we should focus on the big picture. Although he didn't clearly say what the overall situation was important, everyone present could hear it, and what he meant was that Chu Zhuangyan agreed to Lord Lie's request.

Seeing that King Qin had spoken, some of the ministers present also stood up.

"Your Majesty, the minister also thinks so, the overall situation of Mingyue Country should be the priority, and there is no need to make too much trouble about this matter." Shangshu Liu Kaiyang took this opportunity to say.

Hearing Liu Kaiyang's voice, Li Luobing turned his head and glared angrily, he said such a thing at this time, obviously he was announcing personal revenge for the previous matter.

But the current situation makes Li Luobing very helpless, she doesn't even have a chance to defend herself now, she can only listen to the ministers' accusations.

As soon as someone spoke, a bunch of people behind them echoed the voice, pushing Chu Ruoyan and Li Luobing to the forefront in an instant. Although Chu Zhuangyan didn't mean this, he couldn't stand the constant requests and suggestions of the people around him, and he began to think about the feasibility of this matter.

"Father, even if you want to punish, you should investigate the ins and outs of the matter, and then make it public, it is difficult to convince the public to make such a hasty decision now, maybe the prince of Lie is so anxious to put this matter to the coffin, what other thoughts are behind it."

After Chu Ruoyan finished saying a few words, he planted a seed of suspicion in Chu Zhuangyan's heart. He knew that Chu Zhuangyan would not completely listen to Tuoba Lie's words, nor would he fully believe his own words, so he could only put forward the doubtful parts and let everyone think for themselves.

Tuoba Lie watched the people around him gradually calm down, and felt a little regretful in his heart. Seeing that his fanning was about to succeed, Chu Ruoyi's words brought everyone back to their senses, and it was too late to attract attention now.
