Chapter 97, the truth is resentful

When Feng drove to the East Pavilion Palace, Lu Zhaoyi hurriedly raised his legs and stepped into the hall, only to see Xia Pei, Gong Yitao, Xu Lu and Li Qian, etc., they were all standing in the hall, scattered in various corners, their faces were heavy, and it seemed as if something bad had happened.

In the middle of the hall, a person with neat makeup and hair knelt straight in the direction of the dragon case, but the emperor was not there. Z.br>

At a glance again, it turned out that Xia Pei was standing next to the dragon pillar in a corner, holding it with one hand, while rolling his eyes, and when he looked at her coming in, he showed a slight smile.

"Queen, you're here!" He spoke softly, looking tired.

Lu Zhaoyi was slightly stunned, opened his mouth, and walked quickly to his side, "Your Majesty is okay, why don't you go down and rest first?"

Her voice was also very low, and as soon as she finished speaking, she reached out to hold his arm, but Xia Pei avoided her touch, and then waved her hand, indicating that she was fine.

With a wave of his hand, Gong Yitao, who was standing in the other direction, dragged his elderly body over and bowed his hand to Lu Zhaoyi.

"The minister loses Tao, meet the queen, the queen Qianqiu!"

This voice, hoarse as a broken gong, sounded very harsh.

"Excuse me!" Lu Zhaoyi responded, his eyes fixed on Gong Yitao, as if he wanted to find out some unknown news from his face.

"Empress Xie!" Gong Yitao got up, stood up straight, turned around and pointed to the only person kneeling here, "Hui Empress, the ministers, Henan Yin, Xu Sikong, interrogated Lu Lin for more than half a month, but found nothing. Today, he suddenly said that he would only explain to the queen. Therefore, Your Majesty and the ministers have no choice but to ask the Queen to come forward."

Hearing this, Lu Zhaoyi frowned, and his eyes fell on the person kneeling there, but he saw that he was motionless, his eyes were drooping, and his hands were resting on his knees, as if he had fallen into a coma.

She kept speculating in her heart, what trick is this old fox going to do?

In the face of Lu Lin, from the beginning of her career as an official, she clashed with her openly and secretly. It's strange to say that since she went to Huainan County, she has rarely had contact, but the minister of the Jingzhou faction impeached her in the court if she had nothing to do.

Now, the situation between the DPRK and China has been decided, she has also become the queen, and Situ Mansion did not get involved in the chaos on the day of the wedding.

But she didn't expect that after being placed under house arrest, Lu Lin still didn't say anything. After all, no one dares to guarantee that behind Lu Lin, will there be someone else hiding?

Thinking of this, a cold smile appeared on Lu Zhaoyi's lips, and he walked over, "Lu Lin, Yu is here, if you have anything to say, hurry up."

Lu Lin still closed his eyes, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, I don't know whether he was laughing at himself or others, but after all, he gave the queen a thin face, raised his hand and simply gestured to give a bow.

"Please lead the rest of the palace to retreat, let the guilty ministers, and tell the queen alone what has been hidden for many years."

In the hall, except for Xia Pei, Li Qian, Xu Lu and Gong Yitao looked down at each other, as if they didn't plan to leave, obviously reluctant to leave.

Lu Zhaoyi also glanced at Xia Pei, his face was also displeased, and he was even more reluctant to leave.

They all knew that a person like Lu Lin, who was born as a military general, faced Lu Zhaoyi alone, who was powerless, if he really had any evil intentions, there was no possibility of parrying at all.

Since they were all standing in the temple and no one was willing to leave, they must have had some kind of thought.

Seeing that they were stalemate and refused to give in to each other, Lu Lin saw that everyone was still here, and he didn't want to speak, Gong Yitao, who was standing on the side, couldn't help sighing, shook his head, and bowed to Xia Pei.

"Your Majesty, otherwise, you take Li Fuyin and Xu Sikong to leave here, although the old man is old, but when it comes to skills, it is not something that ordinary people can compete with."

Lu Lin did not have any evidence of conviction, he was not a prisoner, but only under house arrest in the East Pavilion Palace, so he was still free in this side hall.

In order to prevent revenge against the queen, Gong Yitao took the initiative to ask Ying, wanting to stay here and block all the crises for Lu Zhaoyi.

With these words in his ears, Xia Pei nodded, he also felt so, and suddenly his eyebrows were slightly raised, with him there, he was not too worried about her safety.

He knew that Gong Yitao's martial arts were so strong that ordinary people could indeed resist them. So, he called Li Qian and Xu Lu to prepare to get up and walk out of the main hall together.

And when he was about to cross the door, he turned his head and looked at Lu Zhaoyi a few times with affectionate eyes, full of affection.

She was also looking at him, and the eyes of the two of them seemed to have a heartfelt expression and wanted to reveal to each other.

After Xia Pei and the other three left, in the entire side hall, only Lu Zhaoyi and Lu Lin remained, as well as Gong Yitao on the side.

Lu Zhaoyi turned around indifferently, walked up the dragon steps step by step, and sat in Xia Pei's seat all the time, raising his eyes to look at him.

"Lu Lin, there is no one else here, if you want to say anything, just say it."

She lifted her lips lightly, her tone calm, but with a hint of coldness.

Hearing this, the kneeling figure was straight and motionless, and changed places, and in a blink of an eye, Lu Lin raised his head suddenly, and his gaze stopped for a moment on Lu Zhaoyi's beautiful face, and then retracted and slowly looked around.

He calmly looked at Gong Yitao standing in front of him, without the slightest fear, but with a slight smile, he muttered unscrupulously: "Gong Yitao...... Hum. It's okay, how much does the queen look down on the criminals? At least arrange one, like ...... Someone like Xia Yuanlong, right?"

Xia Yuanlong!

Hearing this name, Lu Zhaoyi sneered, "He?"

Her eyes drifted away, and she continued, "I wonder if you're curious...... On the day of the wedding, this was not only a two-way greeting procession, but also a formation of troops, and the sound of the east and west, have you heard that he appeared on that day?"

"It really hasn't happened?" Lu Lin's eyes were cold, "Then ask the queen, Gou Chenzi, I don't know where Xia Yuanlong is at this time?"

Lu Zhaoyi casually took a dagger from the dragon case, and smiled faintly, "He...... In Bowang! is leading 30,000 Qingzhou troops to hunt down Suzaku Hall......

Hearing this, Lu Lin raised his head suddenly, and his face suddenly turned pale, "What?"

"What's wrong with you, with such a bad face?" Lu Zhaoyi's words intensified, trying to cause Lu Lin's panic, "Could it be that you really think that the people sent to lead the troops were only seventeen-year-old Qu Zhiyun and thirteen-year-old Gu Man, so they would only hand over the heavy responsibility to them?"

He came back to his senses and shook his head, "No, you're Gou Chenzi. Gou Chenzi never underestimated the enemy."

"You know."

"Of course, the criminal minister was once your subordinate, and the Jing Kingdom was destroyed because of this, such a lesson is deeply impressed, and I dare not take it to heart!"

Lu Zhaoyi sneered.

"Do you still tell me the secrets you keep deep in your heart? Do you want to let me come and listen to you say this?"

He glanced at Lu Zhaoyi, his eyes were a little evasive, he lowered his eyes again, and was silent for a long time before he said word by word: "Your Highness should know that back then, the criminal minister was indeed sincere in his attachment to the Great Abyss. There is no need for the sinner to lie about this."

Lu Zhaoyi didn't speak.

"Back then, after the fall of the Jing Kingdom after the Battle of the River, King Jing and his family all died on the fireboat, only the crown prince Ling Shen, who accidentally fell into the water, did not board the fireship and survived. After that, he fled to Wuliang Mountain in Yongchang County. But the criminal did not know about this at the time. 「

With the memories of Lu Lin, the fog that has been hidden for many years is gradually revealed.

Yongchang County is not a place with beautiful scenery, but a desperate situation full of thorns and poisonous snakes, growing up in this harsh environment, but also due to sudden changes, Ling Shen's temperament has become extremely withdrawn and weird.

Because, in Wuliang Mountain, Ling Shen met the Five Poisons Sect Leader of Wuliang Mountain, and settled down, but he also had a plan that had been buried deep in his heart for a long time, and rose in his heart.

It all started three years ago.

In the midst of the turmoil, the alliance formed by the southern countries encountered the southward army of the Xia clan in the north in just two years after taking the oath in Lingling County.

And Ling Shen tried his best, and finally on the same day that Xia Pei proclaimed the emperor to open the dynasty,

reunited the original alliance and made a plan,

Among them, the participants include Nanling Gong, Wu Chong, Wei Heng and Feng Shicheng, plus him, Lu Lin. In addition, the envoy of the king of Dongning, the Lingzhou Di clan, united the northern Siyi, and the Guanzhong family.

Their purpose is to target, Gou Chenzi.

As for their plans, just like Lu Zhaoyi came along the way, from the Huainan disease, the change in Guanzhong, the invasion of Jingzhou, the battle of Bingzhou, etc., all their plans were cracked by her one by one, which made the plan of the Southern Alliance fall apart.

But these are almost the same as what Lu Zhaoyi guessed before.

Lu Zhaoyi listened a little impatiently, and interrupted him with words, "You said this, I know everything, I want to hear what I don't know......

These words blurted out, as if it seemed that something was not quite right, and after thinking for a long time, he immediately got up from the banquet.

According to Lu Lin, all these plans originated three years ago, but on Wu Chong's side, the origin of the whole thing she knew had been set five years ago, before her father Shangluo Taishou Lu Yong was killed.

A wisp of cold sweat broke out from her forehead, and the back of her neck kept chilling.

She was even dizzy, which was the truth she was looking for.

Even so, there is still no mention of the Xiling Order, and it has nothing to do with the public loser and the Taishi who caused trouble in the world in the previous dynasty.

Could it be that Suzaku Hall is also a chess piece on this entire chessboard?

As if seeing her face, a trace of ripples appeared on Lu Lin's calm face, and his cold eyes looked at her with contempt, "Queen, isn't what the criminal minister just said what you think in your heart? Is there anything wrong?"

Hearing this, a burst of anger arose for no reason, "Lu Lin! Are you bluffing?"

"It's not that the criminal is fooling the queen, but the queen has been wrong from the source, and the criminal is just using these words to warn the queen to think about it again, which link is wrong!"

"What the hell is the truth?" Lu Zhaoyi asked again.

Lu Lin shook his head contemptuously, still with the same smile, "If the queen can't find a loophole, then the queen will ignore the name of Gou Chenzi in vain!"

"The sinner only has a sentence that is right, Lu Lin, back then, he was indeed sincerely attached to the Great Abyss, and he also wanted to make meritorious contributions to the Great Abyss and establish an immortal meritorious cause. The reason why the criminal wants to oppose the queen is to let the queen think clearly about what is wrong."

"You're talking nonsense!"

"Queen, the guilty minister is not talking nonsense."

Lu Zhaoyi gritted his teeth, but he couldn't refute it in a word.

At this moment, in her heart, she suddenly figured out what her father Lu Yong sent back to his hometown in Hebei before he was "killed", the Xiling iron plate, plus the similar things that Lu Zhaoyi inadvertently obtained.

In the past few years, everything that has happened has told her the possibility of another thing.

But she didn't want to believe it.

Lu Lin shouted at this time, "The queen should stop deceiving herself. You've already thought about it, why doesn't the queen accept the facts?"
