"The emergency of the king of Huaiyang County is caused by poisoning." Jiang Zhengfu said solemnly: "And the king of Huaiyang County entered the Ganlu Palace yesterday morning to ask for peace, and soon after leaving the palace, he became unwell, which is suspected and obvious to all - so please ask the eldest princess to move out of the Ganlu Hall immediately, and hand it over to the Ministry of Internal Service and the palace to cooperate in a thorough investigation." ”

The eldest princess of Yongyang raised her eyebrows when she heard this: "Ling Gong said this, isn't it suspected that this palace has poisoned Ping'er?" ”

"Yes or no, you can find out at a glance." Jiang Zhengfu looked at Qi Zhen beside the eldest princess of Yongyang: "If the eldest princess insists on refusing to move, please accept the interrogation here with the people in the upper and lower palaces in the Ganlu Palace, until this matter is revealed." ”

"According to this, Ling Gong is actually going to detain this palace here?" The eldest princess of Yongyang looked at Jiang Zhengfu, and there was no longer the feeling of deliberately showing weakness in front of others, and asked with a smile: "Without evidence and no evidence, Ling Gong brought someone here to ask the palace for his guilt...... Didn't you rely on the momentum of Zhongshu Province to cover the sky, and wanted to deduct the charge of poisoning the new monarch on the head of this palace? ”

At this time, the Puzhen Immortal Master in the hall heard the sound and walked out.

Seeing this, the official beside Jiang Zhengfu immediately sank two points: "In this case, I have to ask later!" In the name of dealing with the funeral of the first emperor, the eldest princess occupied the emperor's residence, entangled her henchmen to meddle in military affairs, and had such close contacts with this Taoist who was good at trickery, and repeatedly spread demagogic words through the words of heaven's will, what is her intention! ”

The undercurrent that had been churning under the river for a long time finally set off a huge wave above the surface at this time: "All kinds of actions here, I'm afraid there is not the heart of coveting the emperor!" ”

The sky was gloomy, and from time to time the wind rose, rolling up the robes of the people.

On the white marble steps, the woman who was accused of such a crime did not panic at all, but chuckled.

"Why won't you move out of this temple of manna...... In fact, it is not the meaning of this palace, Puzhen Immortal Master said that the dragon qi in this manna hall will be dispersed, and only the blood of the Li family in this palace can maintain the true dragon qi...... This is also for the sake of the stability of the country, how can it be misinterpreted by you like this? ”

"And there are no children and no daughters in this palace, only a righteous son with a foreign surname, but he has also been raised with a gentle and pure temperament since he was a child, and he has never been given the way to fight for power...... And this palace is so sick and weak, what reason should you covet this throne? ”

Her tone was more like a perfunctory and sarcastic one than an excuse.

And that weak posture is no longer bothered.

Such a tone and appearance seemed to confirm all ambitions, and it also angered several old ministers even more: "If it weren't for this, the ministers would not have let you enter the inner court under the bewitchment of your henchmen!" I didn't know that it was a wolf who was brought into the house! ”

"The rumors of the so-called 'Dasheng will produce an empress' are endless, and the new monarch is decided, and you can't wait to poison it...... Among them, the wolf's ambition is clearly unconcealed! ”

"This is on the bright side, and I don't know how many means have been used in the dark!"

Looking at the indignant ministers of the court, the eldest princess of Yongyang sighed: "Several adults are really worthy of being the pillars of the court who were born in the imperial examination. ”

Then, she recalled: "But this palace remembers that Ping'er's child has a restrained temperament, and yesterday in front of this palace, but from beginning to end, he has never touched the tea and snacks in this manna hall...... The word poisoning by this palace, where did it come from? ”

Jiang Zhengfu looked over and said in a condensed voice: "The eldest princess has her own masters around her, and this poison may not come from the mouth-"

"Ling Gong said it so lightly." The eldest princess of Yongyang looked at him with a smile and said, "If this is the case, can this palace also suspect that this poison was ordered by the prince?" ”

Her demeanor was childish, as if she was teasing everyone at will, and a young official couldn't bear it when she heard it: "This statement is simply ridiculous!" ”

And it was this absurd remark that made Jiang Zhengfu take precautions for a moment.

The reason why the ministers came to Ganlu Hall to ask about the crime was that Li Wei had done too blatantly in this matter, and anyone could guess her at the first time-

Wrong......

I'm afraid this is not unscrupulous in the palm of your hand......

I don't know what I thought, Jiang Zhengfu's eyes suddenly had a different color.

"How is it absurd." The eldest princess of Yongyang raised her voice and said: "Ping'er was recommended by the Duke of Ling, and the person who is closest to and trusted in this palace is naturally the Duke of Ling. It is reported that Ping'er has been going to Zhongshu Province every time recently, listening to the teachings of Ling Gong as the way of the king, and after leaving the Ganlu Hall yesterday, he also went as usual...... What if the poison was the same one that was in the spot? ”

With an almost imperceptible smile in her eyes, she looked at Jiang Zhengfu: "Duke Ling first elected an insignificant little county king, and then used his safety to slander the palace, and summoned the ministers to come here to put pressure on the palace...... slaughtered my Li family with such scheming methods, did Ling Gong also want to take advantage of the chaos to steal my Li family? ”

"That's nonsense!"

As soon as an official retorted, he saw a chamberlain hurriedly come and said in a trembling voice-

“…… Last night, one of the chamberlains in the palace wanted to escape from the palace from the west gate to avoid the defense, but was stopped by the forbidden army. After investigation, this person is the internal supervisor of the pen and ink in the Zhongshu Province, and when the king of Huaiyang County entered the Zhongshu Province recently, most of this person served beside him...... After a night of interrogation, this person confessed that yesterday he had seen Jiang Linggong secretly put an unknown thing in the tea used by the king of Huaiyang County, at first he didn't know what it was, until he heard the news of the accident of the king of Huaiyang County, realized the severity of the situation, out of fear, afraid of being killed, he wanted to leave the palace overnight! ”

When everyone heard this, they all changed color.

"This ...... This is clearly slander! ”

Some officials came back to their senses and looked at the eldest princess of Yongyang angrily: "This chamberlain must have been bribed and coerced by others, so he could frame this move!" ”

At this time, someone from the Inner Servant Province rushed over.

“…… The medical officer has detected the poison in the Huaiyang County Wang's house in the tea bucket removed from Zhongshu Province yesterday! ”

The eldest princess of Yongyang swept towards Jiang Zhengfu with a pair of phoenix eyes: "The human and material evidence is complete, does Lord Jiang still want to call the thief to catch the thief?" ”

"Poisoning the King of Huaiyang County was originally a bureau specially set up for this official!" Jiang Zhengfu sneered: "It's a good plan to kill two birds with one stone." ”

The eldest princess of Yongyang was surprised and said: "Under the ironclad evidence, Lord Jiang's desire to trap this palace is still endless. ”

"Unfortunately, evidence is needed in everything." She reminded with a smile: "Whether Lord Jiang is wronged or not, it should be handed over to the Ministry of Internal Service and the various palace divisions to verify." ”

Those palace people from the Inner Servant Province stepped forward.

When the official beside Jiang Zhengfu stopped angrily, he could only hear the sound of clean footsteps outside the hall.

Everyone turned their heads to look, only to see a group of armored cavalry guards and guards walking forward quickly and surrounding them.

"Presumptuous...... An elderly minister was indignant and angry, looked at the leader, and scolded angrily: "Tang Wen, as the general of the Thousand Cavalry Guard, you are responsible for guarding the palace city, but you are instigated by this wolf ambition...... Is this to help them rebel? ”

General Tang raised his hand, his face solemn: "The new monarch was poisoned in the palace, and Tang should enforce the law impartially." The duty is in the body, the sword has no eyes, and I hope that you will not embarrass us. ”

"You ......"

In a burst of anger, the eldest princess of Yongyang finally glanced at Jiang Zhengfu, whose face was as blue as iron, and Shi Shiran turned around and entered the inner hall.

The wind and clouds gathered, and thunder rolled down on the edge of the sky.

Soon, the raindrops the size of beans fell down, and the sound of wind and rain intertwined, enveloping the entire imperial city.

This heavy rain that refused to stop for a long time made the already unstable hearts of people in Beijing more and more panicked.

After the incident in the Ganlu Palace, most of the officials of Zhongshu Province headed by Jiang Zhengfu were detained in the palace on suspicion of poisoning the king of Huaiyang County, waiting for a thorough investigation and trial by the palace divisions.

This incident caused a great shock in the court, and a large number of scholars and officials put pressure on the Ganlu Palace, but the eldest princess of Yongyang turned a deaf ear to the sound of boiling outside the palace.

On the contrary, in just a few days, the officials who made the most trouble were impeached one after another, and they were either degraded out of Beijing or imprisoned for serious crimes, and their official positions were soon replaced by the first-class people of the poor family.

There was no blood on the surface above the court, but under the undercurrent there was already a bloody storm.

Since the establishment of the Dasheng Dynasty, the contradiction between the clan and the Hanmen has existed, and it has long been irreconcilable at present, and the Hanmen and the like who have been suppressed by the Shi clan led by the Jiang family for a long time have glimpsed an unusual ray of light through this incident - after the light of the sky, it is the road to heaven.

For a while, those with a keen sense of smell all turned to the eldest princess of Yongyang.

Affected by this, the situation is changing everywhere, and the battle between the open and the dark is also intensifying.

The power of the scholar clan has deep roots, and although Jiang Zhengfu is currently detained, it is impossible for the inner province and the palace to be completely measured-

The situation has developed to this point, and the so-called "truth" of the poisoning of the king of Huaiyang County is no longer the most important.

Anyone can see that this is a game, and the scholars are all involved in it.

The Inner Servants and Palaces, who are also unable to stay out of the matter and are restrained by all parties, cannot make a real choice for a while in this game.

Thunderstorms in early summer.

It was night, a group of cars and horses entered the Dingbei Hou Mansion in Beijing from the side door.

When Xiao Mu went to meet in the side hall, more than ten officials of the scholar clan who were waiting here immediately stepped forward, raised their hands to salute, and their expressions were solemn between their eyebrows and eyes.

"I waited before, and there was a lot of offense when I waited for Xiao Jie...... At this time, I hope that Xiao Jie's envoy can abandon his previous suspicions and worry about the country's society! ”

"Ling Gong has anticipated this situation, and he has left a word before, so that we will fall into a difficult situation in the future, and we can come to the envoy of Xiao Festival to discuss——"

"Li Wei, this woman...... The means are ruthless and have no scruples, and what they do is only concerned about seizing power, and they do not care about the safety of the society at all...... If these people are called emperors, Dasheng and the world are in danger! ”

"At this time, internal and external troubles, the battle of Nanzhao is still inconclusive, the Turkic movements, the Anxi Festival has made Zeng Xin have rebelled, and there are countless people everywhere who want to take advantage of the fire to rob him——"

"The top priority must be settled first!"

"Li Wei is arbitrarily in power and disorderly government, and I am willing to do our best to cover Xiao Jie's envoy to secretly go out of Beijing, go to the north to transfer troops, and lead the troops Kuang Zheng to protect the Beijing division, and clear the trouble for Dasheng!"

"If the king of Huaiyang County is finally difficult to heal, then ask Xiao Jie to come forward and appoint a new monarch from among the children of the clan!"

The last sentence is a reminder, a temptation, and a promise.

In such a chaotic situation, they had to rely on the other party's military power, but they had to be afraid of the consequences of "seeking skin with the tiger"-

Therefore, some consensuses must be reached in advance.

In the future, the right to choose and support the new monarch will be handed over to the other party, which is the greatest sincerity they can give.

This will inevitably lead to the trouble of regency, but in such a situation, there is no choice - to ask people to do things, always show sincerity.

In the end, the so-called regent also needs to have a government to take ......

As for what will happen in the future, we can only wait until the overall situation is stabilized, and then we can see the opportunity to act slowly.

Their intentions were already clear, but the cold-eyed young man had not yet spoken.

In this silence, the hearts of the officials fluctuated.

You must know that this is a tiger, a dangerous and ferocious giant tiger with fangs and claws, and can do things alone.

Until then, they had always regarded each other as rivals with different intentions -

If it weren't for Ling Gong's words, they wouldn't have thought of coming to each other anyway.

Just when one of them couldn't help but want to speak again, he saw the cold young man who cherished words like gold and said, "Xiao is willing to stay with you." ”

Outside the hall, there was no thunder.

The worries in everyone's eyes dissipated.

……

It's a noisy rainy night, but it's also a good time to act.

In the mansion of the eldest princess of Yongyang, after a female envoy withdrew from the room lightly, Heng Yu in the bed tent slowly opened his eyes.

After waiting for half an hour, she got up silently and got out of bed, and put the bed net back to its original state.

The window was pushed open, and she got out of it, slid silently from the windowsill, closed the window, and came to the bamboo forest in the rain.

"Ah Heng!"

The young man walked out of the pavilion and handed her the oil-clad rain gear he had prepared.

After dressing up, the two of them left the place in the rain and with ease.

Covered by the rain, the former Shuguo Mansion in Beijing ushered in a long-lost guest at this time.

Yan Meng held an umbrella and stood in the courtyard of a courtyard.

The dust on the tiles was washed away by the rain, the beams and pillars were mottled and covered by the night, and all signs of decay could be ignored, as if he could still deceive himself that he was still in the old days.

He stood still in the rain for a long time, and scenes of the old days flashed in front of his eyes.

He seemed to hear the sound of young children chasing and laughing, and the sound of reading aloud.

The toddler and his brother sat at the bottom of the corridor, and at the end of the corridor, a couple looked at them with a smile on their faces.

"Looking at" the couple who seemed to be haunted by the light of the sun and the moon, Yan Meng also smiled.

Then, slowly, he closed his eyes.

After a long time, it reopened.

Those fantasy figures are gone.

Something was unloaded, as if it were a matter of an instant.

……

The next day, outside the Beijing Division, in the western camp, there were soldiers who quickly stepped into the military tent.

"General Zhao, there are people outside the camp asking to see you!"

"Who?"

"The other party did not disclose his name, but only said that you saw this, and you understood......"

The soldier said, holding an object with both hands.

The general surnamed Zhao looked at it fixedly, and his color suddenly changed.

It's late, it's late, good night everyone~
