Chapter 98, the horror of the incident
In the hot season, coupled with the hot sun, everyone in the hall felt that the heat was unstoppable, not to mention Xia Pei, who had been standing outside the hall for a long time, and his temper became more and more irritable.
As soon as he turned around and was about to rush into the hall, Xu Lu and Li Qian, who were beside him, hurriedly stretched out their hands to stop them......
"Your Majesty! No, no!"
"Your Majesty, Sikong is right, you must not enter it now, if you want to provoke Lu Lin, he really has the possibility of sealing these secrets in the dust, and if you want to find the truth, there is no possibility." Li Qian also struggled to dissuade him.
Although Xia Pei was anxious and unbearable, he also understood the truth.
He shook his sleeves fiercely, stood to the side with an imposing attitude, and raised his eyes to look at the side hall, as if he was still worried in his heart.
On the other hand, in the East Pavilion Hall, after thinking about several teas, Lu Zhaoyi's originally painful face instantly calmed down again, and she slowly closed her eyes.
After a moment, she suddenly opened, her pupils were black and bright, tough and resolute, she looked at Lu Lin who was kneeling at her feet, and her indifferent voice overflowed from the corner of her lips.
"Lu Lin, you already know what you mean, but there are many loopholes in it, at this moment, Yu has a few words to ask you."
He smiled, "Excuse me, Queen Mother, the guilty minister is listening."
"How did the order of Xiling fall into the hands of Ling Shen? How did he go from exile to such a meticulous conspiracy in just a few months, and also united the four tribes in the north and the Di tribe in the southwest......
"Such a big game of chess, I can't believe it, and no one can plan it......
She stared at Lu Lin.
The look on Lu Lin's face was still calm, as if he had expected her to have this question, and grinned.
Seeing this, she suddenly felt a chill and climbed from her backbone to her back.
"Don't worry too much about it, the queen should know better than the guilty ministers, who is the mastermind behind this game."
"You!" Lu Zhaoyi's eyes widened suddenly.
"The queen should know that the criminal minister was once your defeated general, so naturally it is impossible to plan such a well-planned conspiracy, and there is no need to deliberately hide anything now. As for the Suzaku Hall, it is also true that the criminals did not conspire with them, otherwise the queen would not be sitting here today."
Lu Zhaoyi was silent.
She knew that Lu Lin didn't have to lie to her.
Lu Lin really didn't need to lie to her, maybe he really only knew some one-sided things, not a complete plan.
But how could she believe it?
How could she accept such a fact?
Having said so much, Lu Lin responded to her in this way, deliberately magnifying the suspicions in the matter between Suzaku Hall and Ling Shen, so as to solve his own guilt, and by the way, reduce the suspicion of the status of the mastermind of Suzaku Hall.
No matter how much Lu Zhaoyi didn't want to believe it, he was helpless, and from the many doubts, he really couldn't force all the suspicions.
After all, one thing after another, only the last suspicion is on another person in the hall.
She glanced at Gong Yitao with a pair of eyes, facing his eyes, Gong Yitao's gaze was deep and weird, like two poisonous snakes, once touched, it was easy to cause a sense of crisis.
She pursed her lips.
Lu Lin continued, "The criminal may wish to remind the queen again that the secret that the criminal knows is not only this, but there is another one."
Lu Zhaoyi's heart froze, "What is it?"
He stretched his waist slightly at the moment, started the draw, and bowed, "The criminal minister had the honor to meet Cheng Yang Gong once, and Cheng Yang Gong revealed that in the twelfth year of Hanping in the previous dynasty, Shangluo Taishou Lu Yong made a close friend, and this person was also in Shangluo's ......
At this point, he raised his eyes to look at the other person in the hall, and continued, "Mr. Gonglo! You can't deny this, right?"
Lu Zhaoyi'er stared in horror, and when she looked at Gong Yitao, her face turned pale in an instant.
Gong Yitao didn't speak, but the expression was enough to prove everything.
Her lower lip trembled, her fingertips unstoppable
The ground trembled, and finally spit out two words: "Gong, Gong?"
"The minister is here!"
A complicated look flashed in this person's eyes, and he still respectfully bowed to her, and then he frankly admitted, "Hui Queen, the minister, is indeed old with Ling Zun, and the order that Ling Zun sent back to the Lu family in Xiling was given to him by the minister."
These words were like a bolt from the blue.
Lu Zhaoyi's body shook, and he almost fell to the ground, but fortunately, he grabbed the handle next to the dragon case in time so that he wouldn't faint on the spot.
And at this moment, her mind is full of confusion, and she can't imagine at all, behind this, what role does Gong Yitao play in it?
What is the relationship between him and the former imperial master, how did he know Lu Yong, and why is he hiding in Shangluo?
This is a question she needs to figure out.
"Gong Lose the Machine, Lotsai Pingjianghu. Heaven chooses Kyushu and casts it into bronze!" She muttered, and then asked, "This Lotsai poem has spread all over the thirteen states of the world, and you should have any hardships as a descendant of the public to believe in you!"
"Back to the Empress," he replied flatly, "One day, the minister will definitely tell the Empress the truth of everything, but not at this moment, but waiting for a suitable time......
Lu Zhaoyi gritted his teeth and tried to suppress the churning in his chest, "Since that's the case, I believe you......
How could she have expected that when she said this, Lu Lin, who was kneeling in the hall, suddenly collapsed emotionally, looked up to the sky and laughed, stood up again, and pointed at her, "Stop deceiving yourself, queen, Gou Chenzi!" You guessed everything, why didn't you dare to face it? Or are you worried about anything......
At this time, Lu Lin, who was so crazy, was rude in the temple, and he became even more insane.
But in a moment, before they could react, Lu Lin made a decisive move and rushed to Lu Zhaoyi's door.
In a hurry, Gong Yitao instantly shot to block the frontal attack.
Even in front of the sixty-year-old man's public loss Tao, the gaffe road is not inferior to the other party by half a point, and even in the moves, it is more and more aggressive, forcing the public to lose Tao and retreat.
Lu Zhaoyi's brows furrowed deeper and deeper, and she always felt that Lu Lin's behavior was a little strange.
The movement of Gong Yi Tao and Lu Lin fighting outside the palace quickly attracted many palace people, and the guards also rushed to stop it, and the scene quickly became a mess.
Similarly, Xia Pei and the others were also shocked by this move, and immediately turned around and hurried to the palace.
Just in the midst of the chaos, I don't know who threw a sharp sword to Gong Yitao, and after a few rounds of fighting, the sword stabbed into Lu Lin's shoulder, and blood immediately spurted out.
He smiled coldly, and his tone was extremely contemptuous: "Lu Lin, don't resist stubbornly, the emperor treats you well."
Lu Lin endured the pain, resisting and retorting, "Hmph! How can I be a man who covets glory and riches, and everything that is done today must come to fruition!"
Suddenly, Lu Zhaoyi seemed to understand what he meant, and suddenly, she yelled, "Stop! Gong loses Tao and collects his sword, he is looking for death!"
However, it was too late.
Taking advantage of the gap before everyone came back to their senses, Lu Lin suddenly rushed to the long sword pointing at him, the sword entered his body, and blood flowed horizontally, instantly staining Lu Lin's clothes red.
The corners of his mouth were overflowing with blood, but he still insisted on looking at Lu Zhaoyi: "Queen, you remember, although Lu Lin is dead, the whole thing is not over, I hope there will be a day when the queen ...... I can ...... it head-on This...... One...... Cut ......"
With that, he used his last strength to knock Gong Tao away, and then fell to the ground.
Gong Yitao hurriedly held his corpse, and after shaking for a while, he straightened his body, and after careful inspection, he found that he had lost his breath.
He looked up, his eyes very lost, and he glanced around.
Everyone bowed their heads in unison, and no one dared to say anything.
Lu Zhaoyi's whole body stiffly collapsed.
She didn't expect that things would become like this, she thought she could control everything, but she didn't expect it to evolve to such a point......
At this point, Xia Pei rushed to the front of the dragon case and hugged her into his arms, "Yi'er, you
Don't worry, I'm here!"
Lu Zhaoyi lay in his arms, and the fear in his heart could not be dissipated for a long time.
It seemed that it took a long time between his arms before she slowly broke out of his embrace, looked at the man in front of her, and smiled at him with such a panicked look.
"Your Majesty, I'm fine!"
Xia Pei looked at her face, gradually eased, and then felt at ease.
After the chaos, from the direction of the Taiji Palace, a group of courtiers poured into the hall, and saw that Lu Lin was lying in a pool of blood, and his expression suddenly changed greatly, and it was difficult to calm down.
Seeing this, Xia Pei hurriedly stepped forward and announced to the courtiers who had just arrived, "Lu Lin intends to assassinate the queen, but he has been ambushed, so there is no need to panic."
The courtiers, you look at me, I look at you, and finally they all bow down and prostrate their heads, shouting, "God bless the great abyss, long live your majesty the emperor, long live, long live, long live!" Her Royal Highness the Queen!"
It's just that Lu Lin's death undoubtedly caused an uproar for these civil officials.
They were talking, discussing, and some even questioned whether this was a conspiracy. Is it designed by the queen mother, borrowing a knife to kill?
Xia Pei ignored their arguments, but ordered the palace people to prepare the coffin quickly, and at the same time let Lu Lin be taken to the side hall for burial, and then sent a few more people to Luohe City to dispatch generals.
Then, he turned around and walked to Lu Zhaoyi, clasping her cold and weak hands, "I will accompany you."
Lu Zhaoyi was frightened, nodded, but his eyes were a little sour, still supported by him, and turned around to leave this side hall.
On the way back to Zhaoyang Palace, she was still vain, and her whole heart was up and down, and she couldn't calm down. Chinese Net
Xia Pei knew her concerns, so he persuaded: "Yi'er, I don't know what you have talked about in the palace, if you have any concerns, just say it and listen to me...... Whatever the reason, I don't blame you."
She was silent for a long time before she said, "Your Majesty, do you know why for so many years, there has been no news of the public loser in the world, but the concubine has been to Shangluo, so she can quickly meet the public loser?"
