Chapter Twenty-Eight: Confrontation in front of the Temple
Fan Xian followed his father-in-law into the palace and met his future father-in-law Lin Ruofu in the palace.
Hurriedly saluted: "Lin Xiang! ”
Lin Ruofu had already recognized Fan Xian at this time, and let Fan Xian call him Shibo.
Fan Xian had no objections, and called Shibo by the way.
Lin Ruofu said: "Your Majesty summoned and said that it was related to the death of Jue'er, and there was no way out of the confrontation in front of the palace. ”
After waiting for his father-in-law to go in and tell Emperor Qing, he came out to invite Fan Xian and Lin Ruofu into the palace.
Fan Xian thought a lot in a moment.
Then, following the pace of the father-in-law, he entered the palace.
Seeing that the crown prince and the second prince were also there, Emperor Qing asked people to move a chair for Lin Ruofu.
Then he said, "Everyone is here, and you are right here to speak clearly in front of you." ”
After speaking, Emperor Qing left, and the prince walked up to Lin Ruofu and saluted, and Lin Ruofu hurriedly returned the salute.
After the prince finished the ceremony, he said: "The inspection institute has seen the corpse, Lin Heng died from the master of the fast sword, and the only one who uses the sword in Beijing is Xie Bi'an, the second brother's disciple, who has this swordsmanship." ”
Hearing this, Lin Ruofu looked at the prince and said, "What does the prince mean?" ”
The second prince didn't wait for Lin Ruofu to finish speaking, and then said: "What the prince means is that I am the murderer who killed Lin Hui." ”
Lin Ruofu knew that although the second prince and Lin Heng had a bad relationship, they should not be a killer, but he still followed the prince's words and asked, "Is His Highness a murderer?" ”
The second prince said directly: "You have to ask Fan Xian about this." ”
Hearing this, Lin Ruofu and the crown prince both looked at Fan Xian suspiciously.
When Fan Xian heard this, he hurriedly walked to the side of the second prince: "Second Highness, what does this have to do with me?" ”
The second prince said: "When Lin Heng was killed, Fan Xian and I met and chatted on the street, and Xie Bi'an was on the side at that time. Make circumstantial evidence. ”
When the prince heard this, he asked Fan Xian: "Is there such a thing?" ”
Fan Xian nodded and said, "This is indeed the case." ”
The second prince continued: "The inspection institute has confirmed that Lin Heng died when he died, so if you count it, Xie Bi'an shouldn't have time to drive out of the city to commit murder."
And there is a saying, what the prince said is not right, Fan Xian is also a master of the nine grades, and as far as I know, a few days ago, when he went to the royal palace, he easily subdued Lin Hui and his subordinates.
Many people should know what happened that day. Fan Xian went to the royal palace that day, and the prince's people should also know, right? ”
Before Fan Xian could speak, the prince said again: "Then there is another possibility, Fan Xian cooperated with you and joined forces with Xie Bi'an to assassinate Lin Hui." At this time, they are lying and disjointed. ”
Hearing this, the second prince stood up and asked, "Ridiculous, why did I kill Lin Hui, and why did Fan Xian kill Lin Hui?" ”
The prince immediately said: "Lin Hui planned the assassination on Niulan Street, Fan Xian has a grudge against him." ”
When Fan Xian heard this, he asked very excitedly, "What did you say?" Was the Niulan Street assassination planned by Lin Hui? I don't know about it. ”
The second prince followed and said: "The prince wants to condemn the courtiers, then you and I will be wronged and endure it." ”
When the prince heard this, he said: "According to what you said, apart from Xie Bi'an and Fan Xian, who can have such swordsmanship?" ”
The second prince choked and said: "It's not difficult to raise an unknown sword master, right?" ”
When the prince heard this, he asked angrily, "Who are you insinuating against?" ”
The second prince answered: "It's just reasonable." ”
Seeing that the smell of gunpowder on the scene was getting stronger and stronger, Fan Xian also stepped aside, while Lin Ruofu calmly drank tea and watched the quarrel between the crown prince and the second prince.
At this moment, Emperor Qing's voice rang out.
"Have you had enough of the noise?"
Everyone looked at Emperor Qing and hurriedly saluted.
Seeing this, Emperor Qing said: "Lin Xiang, you are the bitter master, what do you mean?" ”
When Lin Ruofu heard this, he stood up and said, "In Lin's opinion, it should be Chen Pingping who should be blamed." ”
Hearing this, everyone present was surprised, what does this mean?
saw Lin Ruofu continue: "The inspection institute has the duty to supervise Kyoto, and the real culprit of the dog's murder has not been successful until today, which shows that Chen Pingping is not strict and does not handle things well." ”
Emperor Qing nodded when he heard this, and felt that it made sense, so he asked his father-in-law to announce the decree and let Chen Pingping enter the palace to face the saint.
After waiting for a while, Chen Pingping came over.
Father-in-law Hou pushed Chen Pingping's wheelchair to the hall.
As soon as Chen Pingping looked at the people in the hall, she already knew what was going on.
When Emperor Qing saw Chen Pingping coming in, he reprimanded: "Chen Pingping, are you guilty?" ”
Chen Pingping was puzzled: "What is the crime?" ”
Emperor Qing then told the matter, and Chen Pingping suddenly had a clear idea of the ins and outs.
Chen Pingping saluted and said, "Back to Your Majesty, the murderer has been investigated." ”
Emperor Qing seemed to be surprised by this, but Fan Xian had already discovered that Emperor Qing seemed to know everything.
Afterwards, I heard Chen Pingping say: "The murderer is, Dongyi City, looking around the sword." ”
Hearing this, Fan Xian raised his eyebrows, a little surprised by this answer, this reason is found, the Sigu Sword is indeed the best sword among the four great grandmasters, which directly shifts the responsibility to the Sigu Sword, and there is no way to pull the Sigu Sword to confront it.
Subsequently, Chen Pingping's statement pushed everything to Beiqi, and the words were one after another, even Fan Xian, a person who knew the truth, almost believed his nonsense.
Fan Xian can see that Chen Pingping and Emperor Qing are laying the foundation for starting a war. The two of them are here to play double reeds.
First of all, we must unify our thinking before we can launch a national war, otherwise, if our internal thinking is not unified, problems will easily arise.
Lin Ruofu already understood what Emperor Qing meant, and he already understood what to do next.
I saw Lin Ruofu kneeling on the ground, saluting Emperor Qing, and grabbing the ground with his head: "Please Your Majesty send troops to crusade against Northern Qi and avenge my son!" ”
Seeing that the goal had been achieved, Emperor Qing hurriedly pulled Lin Ruofu up.
Subsequently, the regulations for the use of troops against the Northern Qi were announced.
Then, Fan Xian and Lin Ruofu left the palace together.
The atmosphere on the road was very dull, and Fan Xian pretended to be a political novice here. Net ask idiot questions.
Lin Ruofu also answered them one by one.
For this result, Lin Ruofu has no way, His Majesty has already given a murderer, and this matter is over, if Lin Ruofu makes trouble again, it means that Lin Ruofu doesn't know how to measure.
Lin Ruofu, an old fox who has been immersed in the sea for decades, how can he not understand.
Fan Xian left the palace alone, and the development of things was somewhat unexpected by Fan Xian, but it was a good thing, and he was completely cleaned.
Fan Xian, who left the palace, did not go home directly, but was going to buy some food on the street, at noon, Wang Qinian, the pit goods, only bought half a bowl of noodles for himself, and he was not full, so he ate another bowl of noodles, and then went home.
