Chapter 143: Jiang Wujian entered
In the blink of an eye, a few days later, according to the fathead fish's instructions, Jiang Wujian waited outside the palace.
Dressed in black, with a silver knife hanging from his waist, his tall posture and handsome facial features, the eunuchs passing by couldn't help but take a few more looks.
Today is the day when the empress rewarded Jiang Wujian for the snow field, and although King Luo didn't mention what he would reward, he didn't think it would be too bad.
However, more than half an hour has passed since the time of the dispersal of the dynasty, but the will of entering the palace to face the saint is delayed.
Looking at the huge Miyagi, Jiang Wuxi pressed one hand on the handle of the knife, and the corners of his mouth hooked a trace of arc, "If the will doesn't come, then it's trouble, hehe......"
……
In the main hall, the empress in a dragon robe sat on the dragon chair, and a pair of narrow eyes under the bead curtain scanned back and forth at the hundred officials under the imperial stage.
"Holy Lord, the rumors are terrible! Weichen dared to beg the Holy Lord to thoroughly investigate Jiang Yindao's residence, right and wrong, you will know it at a glance! ”
"Jiang Yindao has repeatedly solved strange cases and recovered the robbery statue, which is indispensable, but the Red Lotus Sect is a thief! According to the law, those who harbor anti-thieves should be late! Punish the three clans! ”
"Lord Shoufu is serious, this matter is just a rumor, I don't know the whole picture, I can't assert it, but the minister also thinks that the Jiang Mansion should be thoroughly investigated, and the Marquis of Jiang should be returned to his innocence, as for the reward, it is better to discuss it after investigation."
"The minister seconded the proposal."
"The minister seconded the proposal."
Today was originally a good day to get promoted and make a fortune.
But there are people in the market who are spreading the news that Jiang Wujian harbored the Red Lotus Sect and rebels.
At today's court meeting, the empress just made a start, and the officials discussed a lot and expressed their opinions.
At this time, King Luo, who was wearing an official uniform, took a few steps forward, saluted the empress, and then turned to look at everyone.
"The Rongjin case, the thief of the Ministry of Industry, the tumor of the Ministry of Rites, Shuiyun Villa, the Nine Tribulations of Tianmen, the assassination of the Queen Mother, the poison of the cold weather, and the domination of the snow field."
"This king wants to ask, which of these things can have anything to do with the rebellion!"
The sonorous sound echoed through the hall.
Although he knew that King Luo would favor Jiang Wuji, his words were not rough.
If Jiang Wujian had the intention of rebellion, he wouldn't do any of these things, at least he wouldn't do them so beautifully.
However, the rumors can be said that harboring anti-thieves is a serious crime, not to mention the wife of the sect leader of the Red Lotus Sect......
At this time, Guogong Li Zhao stood up and said: "King Luo is reasonable, if we thoroughly investigate Jiang Yindao because of rumors, I am afraid that it will chill Fengtiansi's heart." ”
"This king is just talking about things, why should the prince of the country be involved in Fengtiansi?"
"Hehe, Your Highness is angry, and the lower officials are also on the matter."
Although I know that Li Zhao is a backbone, there is no ironclad evidence for the time being, and the number of Zhao parties in the DPRK and China is the largest, so it is not the time to turn against him.
King Luo sighed lightly and said, "This king is just afraid of chilling the hearts of the soldiers, and his words are too heavy, so don't take Zhaoguo Gong to heart." ”
"No, no, no." Li Zhao waved his hand, and said with a smile: "It's better to investigate this matter and discuss it again, but it's not appropriate to rush into the house......"
"No!"
Shoufu Miao Chengguang hurriedly said: "Everything will not come out of nowhere, it is related to the Red Lotus Sect, even if it damages the reputation of Jiang Yindao, you can't ignore it!" ”
"The rumors just started, if there is really a thief in Jiang Yindao's family, he may have left secretly, although it is too late to seal and investigate at this time, but one is one, two is two, if he doesn't check because of merit today, then will he have a second Jiang Yindao and a third Jiang Wujian in the future?"
"Miao Shoufu, Jiang Yindao is carried by this king, are you doubting this king with your words?!" King Luo shouted angrily.
However, this Miao Chengguang seemed to have eaten the scales and had an iron heart, and in the face of King Luo's anger, he still insisted.
"Weichen is just for Da Li, His Royal Highness is so aggressive, it is nothing more than to protect his reputation, even so, as long as Jiang Yindao can prove his innocence, Weichen is willing to come to the door in person and apologize!"
"You! ……”
"Alright." The empress spoke, and her flat tone could not tell the joy and anger.
Miao Chengguang is an upright person, focusing on a loyal and disobedient person, impeaching this and that at every turn.
If it weren't for the empress to protect him, he would have stepped down a long time ago, how could he still confront King Luo with an iron head?
However, it is precisely because of his temperament that some officials in the DPRK and China have to follow, so there is the Miao Party.
The empress stood up, her hands rolled up behind her back.
"It's about the Red Lotus Sect, and you can't turn a blind eye to it, but ...... Zhaoguogong's words reminded me. ”
"The matters of the Red Lotus Sect have always been handled by Fengtiansi, but Jiang Wujian is the silver knife of Fengtiansi, in this matter, King Luo will avoid suspicion."
"Holy!"
"Don't say much."
King Luo was slightly stunned, the fat-headed fish fluctuated, and finally could only bite the silver teeth and return to its original position.
"The post of secretary of the criminal department has been vacant for more than half a month, right?"
"Back to the saint, the criminal department is still in the old man's twenties." Miao Shoufu said.
"Hmm."
The empress tapped her head and said lightly: "These days, you have recommended a lot of good talents to me, and now you are temporarily acting as a person in Shangshu affairs, but you are a waiter in the Criminal Department?" ”
Suddenly, Gong Xiang, the waiter of the Criminal Department, hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "Back to the saint, it is indeed a lowly temporary Shangshu affair recently." ”
"Well, Jiang Wuji's harboring of anti-thieves will be handled by you, you don't need to worry about it for a long time, you can investigate how you want."
"This ......" Gong Xiang secretly glanced at King Luo, and then knelt down and kowtowed: "I will do my best to investigate!" ”
Miao Chengguang, the first assistant on the side, frowned, and stopped talking.
Gong Xiang is from the Zhao Party, although the saint did not say it explicitly, but it is not difficult to see that after this matter is done, the position of Shangshu will fall on his head.
Although he didn't think that the Miao Party would suppress the Zhao Party, he was not optimistic about Gong Xiang's personality, and often stayed in the Jiaofang Division, and I heard that he was very generous.
I hope he can handle the case impartially......
In the scattered dynasty, King Luo went to find the empress in front of everyone.
Jiang Wuji, who had been waiting outside the palace for a long time, did not wait for the face saint, but waited for a group of officials of the criminal department.
"Jiang Yindao, please?"
Gong Xiang touched his mustache with a smile, full of expectations for his career.
Although Jiang Wujian had expected this scene a long time ago, he still asked very cooperatively: "Criminal Department? Dare to ask your lordship, what crime have you committed? ”
"Heh, when you die, you will still have a hard mouth, and when this palace catches the thief, see if you are still hard-mouthed!"
"Come on, bring it back!"
……
It's not long ago.
Ji Xiaowan, who had used the clouds to the extreme, hurried home.
"Something's wrong!"
Seeing Wan'er's appearance, Qin Mo, who was teaching homework, tightened his mind and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" ”
"Jiang Wuji was taken away by the people of the Criminal Department!"
"Huh?!" Lu Xiaolu's beautiful eyes trembled, and she hurriedly asked, "What happened?" How could Brother Wujian be taken away by the people of the Criminal Department? ”
"Because of her?" Qin Moli immediately thought of Murong Bangfeng.
Because of Ji Xiaowan's relationship, their master and apprentice all know Murong Bangfeng's identity.
Ji Xiaowan stomped her feet angrily, and a pair of peach blossom eyes were filled with mist.
"I said I couldn't take her home! What about the wind-savers? ”
"I said I went out for a walk yesterday, and I haven't seen her today, but you...... Are you going to send a message to her to escape, or are you going to ...... Hand her over? ”
"I ......"
Giving the person is tantamount to sitting on the charge of Jiang Wuji, but as long as the person is not found in this house, there is still room for maneuver.
If he doesn't hand over someone, Murong Bangfeng may be able to escape safely, but Jiang Wujian is in prison, and if he can't find anyone, the Criminal Department will definitely use torture and interrogate.
On the one hand, she is her best friend for many years, and on the other hand, she is her sweetheart, and Ji Xiaowan can't choose at all.
"Or ...... I'm going to rob a prison? Ji Xiaowan said.
How many pounds and taels do you have? …… Qin Moli: "According to the teacher, you should go to King Luo." ”
"Looking for her? What's the use of looking for her, if that fierce and brainless woman is useful, how could Jiang Wujian be taken away by the people of the Criminal Department! Ji Xiaowan gritted her teeth.
……
At the same time, the Queen Mother's bedroom.
A fallen leaf slowly fell, and it happened to fall into the hands of the Queen Mother.
"What is this?" The Queen Mother asked.
The maid beside her paused for a moment, and then hurriedly saluted: "Hui Niangniang, this is a maple leaf." ”
The Queen Mother sighed faintly: "How can this palace not know the maple leaf? It's just that even Maple Leaf knows how to find Hongu, and ...... Hey......"
Handmaiden: "......"
Just then, another maid hurried in.
"! Oh no! Something happened! ”
"What's the matter?" The Queen Mother frowned and asked, she liked to be quiet and disgusted with yelling.
"It's Jiang Yindao......"
“?!”
The Queen Mother's eyes widened, and her always soft voice suddenly raised a lot.
"Jiang Wuji? What happened to him? ”
"Hui Niangniang, Jiang Yindao was taken away by the people of the Criminal Department, I heard that he harbored the Red Lotus Sect anti-thief......"
"What?!"
The fat head phoenix rises and falls.
"How could he harbor a thief? Or the Red Lotus Sect...... What about King Luo? King Luo didn't care about this? ”
"The slave and maid heard...... This is the meaning of the Holy Lord, let His Royal Highness King Luo avoid suspicion......"
"What does the Holy mean? What are they doing? No, Jiang Wujian is a rare talent, or the life-saving benefactor of this palace, this palace has to ask. ”
"Niangniang, the slave has already inquired, and the saint doesn't see anyone now......"
“???”
The Queen Mother's little hand is on her willow waist, looking like a little woman is troubled.
But after half a ring, she spoke again: "Go, call the girl who picked the star building." ”
"Whoa."
