"Marquis Wuding, what are you looking at?"

On the way to the Qianqing Palace, Zhang Heling asked again in annoyance.

"Humph!"

Guo Xun snorted coldly again, as if he had become a humming monster.

Since Zhang Yong appeared in front of everyone, Zhang Jin also arrived at the scene of the court meeting, which at least proves that the possibility of the palace leaders participating in this matter is very small.

Although Guo Xun is not sure whether it is a natural disaster or a man-made disaster, it is most natural to think about it.

If it is a natural disaster, it is just how the emperor deals with the "celestial warnings" and other verbose things of the ministers.

But if it is a man-made disaster, then Guo Xun has a chance to make meritorious contributions!

The prayer feast that was supposed to be held tomorrow can't be opened now?

He, Guo Xun, as the first lord to know the scriptures and feasts in decades, was so disturbed by this incident!

In any case, when something happens, he will be the first to stand up and ask for a thorough investigation!

The group finally arrived outside the Qianqing Gate in a hurry. When I looked up, I saw that there was still smoke curling near the Risei Gate in front of the right.

Feasting at the scene of a fire? No, the emperor asked them to come and see the scene of the incident.

I saw that in the corner where the Rijing Gate was located, there was also a circle of eunuchs standing outside the palace wall of the Qianqing Palace, just standing there without moving. Three steps and one person, standing still and speechless.

It's like protecting only the location where the fire has occurred.

The hearts of the military generals of Wenchen were all raised.

Walking into the Qianqing Gate, there were also eunuchs in the courtyard.

The emperor who left first was already standing under the eaves of the main hall of the Qianqing Palace.

Zhu Houxi saw Yan Song and Liu Long, and after being slightly surprised, he realized that he had missed these two people before.

"It's good that the living note is here." He opened his mouth, "Huang Jin, let people go to the imperial dining room and let them start cooking." Come here. ”

He took the lead and walked to the southeast corner of the Qianqing Palace, stood on the cloud platform and pointed to the Rijing Gate: "The fire is ugly before two o'clock, and when Huang Jin carried me out, the fire had spread to the entire Rijing Gate, and he also burned to death the eunuchs who were on duty at night. No screams, no warnings. ”

Zhu Houxi turned his head to look at the faces one by one, and finally stopped at Yang Tinghe, staring into his eyes: "Zhongqing, what do you think?" ”

“…… Your Majesty, natural disasters are spared, and these two chamberlains are also blessed......"

"It's not an act of God."

Zhu Houxi's face sank, interrupting Yang Tinghe's words, and also shocked the hearts of everyone here.

Guo Xun stepped forward without fear of anything, and immediately said: "Someone colludes inside and outside, intending to assassinate and rebel!" Your Majesty, please investigate this case thoroughly! ”

"Marquis of Wuding!" Yang Tinghe was anxious, and said to Zhu Houxi with a pleading face, "Your Majesty, how can you think that it is not a natural disaster?" Last night, there was a burst of spring thunder, and the old minister was also woken up before and after the ugly time. At that time, lightning and thunder roared, and this was not the first time that the Forbidden Palace was struck by lightning and caught fire. A hundred years ago, in the eighteenth year of Yongle, the Forbidden Palace was struck by lightning and caught fire just three months after its completion, and the Fengtian Temple was burned to the ground......"

"Elder Yang Ge won't listen to my reason?"

Yuan Zonggao stood aside, pursed his lips anxiously and apprehensively, and shook his head at Zhu Houxi.

Zhu Houxi raised his hand to stop him, which made Yuan Zonggao even more worried.

"Your Majesty!" Yang Tinghe was really pleading with his face, "This must be a lightning strike and a fire, and it has nothing to do with anyone, and it has nothing to do with Your Majesty." Accidents are unpredictable. Fortunately, His Majesty is unhindered, His Majesty's destiny returns, and he is protected by gods and ancestors. ”

"What can it have to do with me?" Zhu Houxi laughed when he heard this, "Celestial warning? Or is it that I ordered someone to raise a fire with the intention of setting off a big case? ”

Yuan Zonggao's face changed, Yang Tinghe had already thrown off his robe and knelt down, and his voice was panicked: "The old minister made a mistake, please forgive your majesty." No one thinks so, Your Majesty, the attendants on duty are not effective in handling matters and warning in a timely manner, Your Majesty naturally adheres to the ancestral family law and does what should be done. It's just that since Your Majesty is unhindered, the court meeting can still control the wrath of the Nine Heavens, and he knows what kind of monstrous turmoil the so-called internal and external collusion and assassination of the Marquis of Wuding should be. Your Majesty is the first time to ascend to the great treasure, it is better to be quiet than to move! ”

As soon as he knelt, many people knelt down.

There were also several of them.

Zhu Houxi looked at Zhang Heling and the others among them coldly, and said in a cold tone: "You are a military general, only the monarch's order is followed, when did you learn that Wenchen knelt down to advise at every turn?" ”

Zhang Heling Zhang Yanling trembled all over, and was at a loss for a while.

Yang Tinghe lowered his head and said sadly under the eaves of the Qianqing Palace dripping with rain curtains: "The minister is sincere, for the stability of His Majesty's court, and for the sake of no rumors from spreading to thousands of generations!" Please have mercy on Your Majesty, and everything will be as before. Today, the Ministry of Industry is planning to rebuild the Rijing Gate and renovate the Qingning Palace, and tomorrow's economic banquet will also be held as scheduled. Your Majesty! The Son of Heaven is angry, and millions of corpses are ambushed, Da Ming can't withstand such turmoil at this moment! ”

Zhang Zuo still couldn't figure out why Yang Tinghe said this was useful, but Yuan Zonggao understood, and hurriedly spoke: "Your Majesty, what the pavilion elder said is really right!" ”

The more than 1,000 Wenchen generals who participated in the Great Dynasty Meeting are now all guarded in the Wenhua Hall and the Wuying Palace!

The Qianqing Palace caught fire, His Majesty calmly attended the court meeting, and the princess and the ministers were all called here.

Now that the insects over there are no leaders, how worried should they be?

Can you swallow it? I'm just afraid that there will be more internal urgency!

Here, there are a lot of fools, basically all of them are concentrated on the side of the military generals of Xun Qi, and there is probably only Liu Long on the side of Wenchen.

But after just listening to a few words in front of them, they all knew that Yang Tinghe also agreed with the emperor's statement that this was not a natural disaster.

Yan Song didn't expect it to be so exciting after the follow-up, and he understood it when he came here.

The two wrecks of the ruins of the Nisseimon Gate are still there.

It's been raining for days, why did the fire start so quickly, so that the fire burned all over the Nichimen without anyone giving a warning?

In the process, two people were burned to death, and they didn't even scream. This day thunder, so precise?

What kind of fool would try to burn down the Qing Palace with fire on a thunderstorm night after days of rain?

It is impossible to achieve an end unless the person doing it has another purpose.

So what is the purpose?

The Qianqing Palace was struck by lightning and caught fire, and His Majesty was fine.

This is the most likely outcome of this matter.

Yan Song looked at Yang Tinghe, who was kneeling on the ground, and sighed silently for him in his heart.

The emperor has just ascended the throne, and he has just quarreled with Yang Tinghe, who supported him, how can he die?

If the emperor was really burned to death like this, Yang Ting and the name of the first traitor in the past and present jumped into the Yellow River, then jumped into the Yangtze River, and finally washed it with spring water ten thousand times.

But the emperor didn't die, and the lightning struck the Qianqing Palace and caught fire again, that is, the king had no way, and the heavens warned him, wouldn't Wenchen be able to overturn the case in the previous big gift dispute?

It sounds as simple as that. In the case that the emperor did not die, Yang Ting and this group of people were the most suspicious of the Queen Mother.

Yan Song couldn't help but secretly look at the emperor: Did he think so?

Yang Tinghe's answer Zhu Houxi heard it, and he said calmly: "I understand what Elder Ge said. This trick is too simple, if the elders make a move, how can it be so naïve? ”

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone fell to their knees.

"No, this planner is very accurate with the elder of the pavilion." Zhu Houxi continued lightly, "Some people want to blame the elders of the pavilion, but Elder Yang can only follow their wishes and persuade me to tell the world that this is just a natural disaster. What the elder is worried about is nothing more than that there is no proof of death now, and the people who may be involved are too sensitive. If it is a man-made disaster, the elder is afraid that I will definitely investigate, and if I want to find out, it will definitely cause monstrous turmoil. Is that so, Elder Ge? ”

Yang Tinghe raised his head, his eyes were full of pleas: "Your Majesty, the minister is wrong. It's not a natural disaster, it's a man-made disaster, it's a fire caused by an inadvertent servant. ”

Yes, there are two kinds of man-made disasters, one is unintentional and the other is deliberate.

It can't be a natural disaster, it will make the Son of Heaven leave the so-called "celestial warning" handle with some well-intentioned people.

But Yang Tinghe really didn't dare to agree at first that it was a man-made disaster, and if he said that it was a man-made disaster, who knows what the Son of Heaven will do next?

Therefore, it cannot be a deliberate attempt to rebel, because there is only one object of suspicion if there is a motive and ability to do this.

Wang Qiong and others were protected by the emperor, Zhang Yong, Wei Bin, and Gu Dayong were not convicted and imprisoned, Jiang Bin, who had the ability to rebel, was in the prison, and Mao Cheng, who had been demoted to the people, had this ability?

In the palace, there is only one person who has the ability and motivation to do this: Empress Dowager Zhang in Renshou Palace.

But could the emperor kill his cousin's mother who had passed the throne to him when he had just succeeded to the throne?

Emperor Zhengde has not yet come out of the funeral, and he is still lying in the Hall of Renzhi!

The source of all the disasters is the edict, the edict drawn up by Yang Tinghe!

Whether it is to make it clear to Empress Dowager Zhang first, or to suppress Zhu Houxi, it is impossible for the current situation to happen.

But now it's happening.

If the emperor raises the sword of the Son of Heaven, will he reach out to his relatives and elders, or will he reach out to his first and auxiliary ministers?

Guo Xun once again looked sharply at the two brothers, Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling.

"Wu ...... Wu Dinghou, you ...... What are you looking at again! ”

Maybe it was because Marquis Wu Ding's gaze was too sharp, or maybe it was Yang Tinghe's reaction and the atmosphere brought about by the frank exchange under the eaves of the Qianqing Palace at this time was too unbearable.

Even Yan Song felt that it was too exciting, what kind of psychological quality did he Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling have?

was stared at by Guo Xun with the eyes of a suspect, Zhang Heling couldn't help but ask for the third time, "What are you looking at?" ”

The question was timid and weak-hearted.

So more people looked at the two of them.
