Chapter Fifty-Six: Face Saint
After four months, Qiao Xiya is about to set foot on the land of Jin'an City again, and she can't help but feel a lot of emotion in her heart. In just over 100 days, things are wrong.
"What's wrong?" Mo Haoning saw Qiao Xiya shouting to stop the carriage, standing next to the carriage, looking at the three big characters "Jin'an City" on the city gate building in a daze, and couldn't help but stop his crotch and get off the horse.
"Nothing, let's go." Qiao Xiya smiled and shook her head.
"Let's go, go back to the palace first, and then I'll invite you to eat the best refreshments in the city." Mo Haoning watched Chunling help Qiao Xiya into the carriage, and then he used his legs hard, pinched the horse's belly, and urged his crotch to get off the horse and enter Jin'an City.
"Stop! Who are you? Not long after entering the city, Mo Haoning's scolding came from outside the carriage, Qiao Xiya couldn't help but be curious, and opened the curtain.
Looking up, I saw that Mo Haoning had stopped five or six wagons pulling dirt, and the wagons were full of dirt. It looked like it was going to be shipped out of the city.
"Who are you? I'm not old, but I'm quite wide! A big man jumped down from the carriage and looked at Mo Haoning with disdain.
"Presumptuous! This is Prince Hao! Chu Yun on the side scolded.
"Prince Hao? Haven't heard of it. The big man said, spitting on the ground, "It's really at the feet of the Son of Heaven, any cat or dog dares to call himself the prince......
"Bang!" Without waiting for the big man to finish speaking, Chu Yun flew up from the horse, kicked the man in the mouth, and returned to the horse with his strength.
As soon as Chu Yun sat down, the man said, "Poof! A tooth snapped out. Looking at the blood-stained tooth on the ground, the man covered his mouth and glared at Chu Yun.
"Knowing that it is at the feet of the Son of Heaven, you should be very careful when you speak. Master, I'll teach you how to speak," Hatsuyun sneered at the dust that didn't exist on the vamp.
"What are you doing!" A shout came from not far away, and with the sound, a team of officers and soldiers patrolling the city surrounded the carriage transporting the soil and Mo Haoning and his party. Chen Qingyan, the soldiers and horses of the Five Cities wearing dark green official clothes, hurried over.
Chen Qingyan saw Chu Yun riding on the horse at a glance, and hurriedly stepped forward: "Why do you have to go out for a walk today?"
"Follow our master out on errands." Chu Yun lazily returned the salute.
Hearing this, Chen Qingyan hurriedly took two steps forward, plopped down and knelt in front of Mo Haoning's horse's hooves, and shouted: "Weichen respectfully invites the prince Wan'an!"
"Get up." Mo Haoning nodded, "Hurry up and disperse all the people, what does it look like to block the city gate." ”
"Scattered, scattered, scattered!" Hearing this, Chen Qingyan hurriedly got up and ordered the officers and soldiers patrolling the city to disperse the crowd of onlookers. "You, come here!" Seeing that the crowd had dispersed, Chen Qingyan pointed with his hand and called the big man with a mouth full of blood in front of him.
"Let me ask you, what do you do with this truckload of dirt?" Mo Haoning did not question the previous disrespect in front of Chen Qingyan.
"Back to the prince, this is transported from Lin Guoshi's mansion, and the national teacher said that he wants to dig a lotus pond in the backyard." Dahan's attitude has changed 180 degrees.
"Lotus pond?" Mo Haoning couldn't help frowning.
"Yes, the national teacher said that next year is the 80th birthday of the Queen Mother, and he wants to plant a pond of lotus flowers to congratulate the Queen Mother on her birthday." The big man covered his mouth, and his leaky mouth was a little slurred, but Mo Haoning still understood.
"The mind of the national teacher is really chic." Mo Haoning sneered inexplicably, "Go ahead, open your eyes before you speak in the future." ”
"Yes, yes, thank you for your leniency." The big man said, covered his mouth, quickly got into the carriage like a wind under his feet, and walked out of the city.
"Lord Chen, we still have to return to China to hand over the decree, let's talk about it another day." Chu Yun arched his hand to Chen Qingyan.
"You're busy first." Chen Qingyan arched his hand and said, "Weichen sends off the prince!" ”
The group went straight to the palace.
On the long Suzaku Street, Qiao Xiya leaned on the car window, looking at the palace gate that was getting closer and closer to her, and her heart became more and more nervous.
She was afraid, afraid that she would be late, and that her father had been victimized by gangsters.
"Don't be nervous." Mo Haoning smiled, "I haven't seen you so nervous when you saw the mermaid in Huizhou." ”
"I'm worried that they've already done it to my father......" Qiao Xiya's face was full of worry.
"Don't worry, General Gu Chang'an Gu is guarding it personally, Master Qiao will definitely be fine." Mo Haoning paused, "You will say later, after you have verified, the serial disappearance of the girl was done by Wu Minchu alone, just because he listened to the nonsense of the mountain village husband and believed in the theory of collecting yin and supplementing yang, so he kidnapped those girls......"
"Vainly trying to achieve the effect of longevity and longevity through the method of collecting yin and supplementing yang." Qiao Xiya interrupted Mo Haoning, "I know, you have explained it more than a hundred times, and my ears are about to become calloused." ”
~~
"Are you true?" In the Jinluan Palace, the emperor Mo Junchen was sitting precariously with his brows tightly locked.
"Yes." Qiao Xiya was so frightened that she could barely speak.
"Father," Mo Haoning glanced at Qiao Xiya, who was kneeling beside her and didn't dare to raise her head, and took over the conversation with her fists clenched, "Erchen has always been involved in this girl's disappearance case, and what Miss Qiao said is true." ”
Mo Junchen glanced at his son Mo Haoning, and then at Qiao Xiya, and the corners of his mouth hooked up an imperceptible smile: "Wu Minchu has been governing Huizhou for many years, and he doesn't want to be so confused." That's it, since the real murderer has already taken the blame, let's let Qiao Qinglin go. ”
"Your Majesty!" Before Mo Junchen's words fell, Yu Xialiang, who was specially allowed to enter the palace to listen to Qiao Xiya's recital of the case, came out and knelt on the ground, "Your Majesty Mingjian!" That day, Weichen did search for stolen goods from Qiao's mansion, even if Qiao Qinglin was not the mastermind, he was also an accomplice, and he couldn't let it go! ”
"Yu Xialiang." Mo Junchen's voice was not angry, and Yu Xialiang couldn't help but shudder, "Miss Qiao's recital is clearly written, those hairpin jewelry are not stolen goods, but evidence that Wu Minchu kidnapped those women, not to mention that the captive women are not all official eunuchs and wealthy families, how can there be so many stolen goods?" Seeing that Yu Xialiang was speechless, Mo Junchen paused and continued, "As a Dali Temple, you and Qiao Qinglin are officials in the same dynasty, you should live in harmony, and you shouldn't be suspicious of each other. You stopped me from letting Qiao Qinglin go, what is your intention? ”
"This ......" Yu Xialiang's face turned from red to white, and his body was like a sifting chaff, "Your Majesty is atoning for your sins!" Weichen didn't intend to be an enemy of Lord Qiao, he only hated Weichen for being ignorant, listening to slander, and thinking that those jewelry were stolen goods, which was ......"
"That's it!" Mo Junchen coldly interrupted Yu Xialiang, "Now whether it is stolen goods or evidence has been clarified." As a Dali Temple, you can't distinguish between right and wrong, and you really should be punished. Punish you for half a year, take this as a warning! ”
"Thank you, Lord Longne!" Yu Xialiang prostrate on the ground, kowtowing like pounding garlic.
"Xuan Qiao Qinglin." Mo Junchen turned his head to look at Chang Shiliang.
"Xuan Qiaoqing is here to see you!" The big and small eunuchs passed out one by one, and Qiao Xiya burst into tears.
