Chapter 307: Yi'er!
Xu Yin lifted his robe and fell to the ground.
The prince's gaze stopped on his back for a long time, and moved out of the window: "It's rare that Xu Shilang has such sincerity. β
Xu Yin raised his head: "Go to the soup for His Royal Highness, and never give up." β
The prince raised his hand and motioned for him to get up, and then paced out of the curtain and said, "You are willing to treat Gu like this, and Gu is very pleased." You also know that the things of the year were not done alone, but the prince of Rong Wang was not reliable. As a result, these troubles were born afterwards, and Lone also had a headache. β
Xu Yin sighed deeply: "Fortunately, His Highness was wise and suppressed it in time, so that no one knew about it later." β
"However, I still let Pei Zhan know." The crown prince looked at him, "And just now you also said that the emperor arranged for Pei Zhan to be stationed in King Rong's mansion because the emperor also began to be suspicious." β
Xu Yin hung his head.
"Therefore, this matter is very inauthentic." The prince sat down, "Back then, out of trust in Yang Yu, he asked him to handle this matter, but he not only messed up the matter, but also left the handle in his hand, King Rong hid the fan, what did he want to do?" β
Xu Yin arched his hand: "The Rongwang City Mansion is so deep, it really shouldn't be." β
"Since you don't think you should be, do you know what to do?"
Xu Yin raised his head, and met his slightly cool gaze.
These eyes unexpectedly revealed a modest and impetuous that was different from what appeared on him at any time in the past, and a prince carefully cultivated by the founding emperor of Wen Taowu to rule the country suddenly appeared.
Xu Yin lowered his eyes and looked at the ground: "The minister obeys the order." β
The prince took his hand, his face turned to the window, the morning sun shone in, and his face suddenly brightened: "Gu Su heard that Xu Shilang is very knowledgeable, and he is a rare talent. The matter is left to you, and Lone is relieved. A few days ago, I have asked the queen mother to come to the East Palace to concurrently serve as Zhan Shi, and within three days, I hope you will come here with good news to receive the appointment order. β
"I don't dare to make a mistake." Xu Yin leaned over again.
After straightening up, he glanced at the prince, and then bowed: "The minister retires." β
The prince nodded, and watched him go out all the way.
As the figure faded away, the prince's expression became gloomy a little bit.
"Your Highness!"
Seeing this, Jinbao came to him worriedly.
"Pass a few people, follow Xu Yin, and see if he is honest."
Jin Bao said: "If he doesn't do it, what will happen?" β
"If he doesn't do it, do it for him." The prince glanced at him, "Since he chose to come to this water, whether he does it or not, he has done it." β
Jinbao will will, and the will of the leader. "How will the Qianqing Palace deal with it?"
The prince straightened his robe and said slowly, "What are you panicking about?" As early as six years ago, wasn't Lone already ready for both? β
β¦β¦
The case of Baiyu Hutong, after the oral accounts of Liang Ning and Mrs. Ning, who were witnesses, coupled with Zhang Shicheng's confession in Baihe Temple, is already clear from beginning to end.
After Pei Zhan's statement was completed, the emperor and queen were all silent.
It wasn't until the air in the room seemed to have solidified that the queen slowly stood up: "You let people go back and bring me the blood-stained dagger to see?" β
Pei Zhan lowered his head: "The minister has asked the guards to carry the dagger with him, and they are waiting outside the palace at this moment." If the mother wants to see it, she must ask the mother to send someone to the palace gate to fetch it from the guards. β
"Someone! Go to the palace gate! β
The queen sent people down sharply, and walked up to Pei Zhan and them: "Princess Rong's death, you haven't said it yet!" β
"Yes!" Pei Zhan bowed his head, and from the time when Yu Yu was injured, until he returned to King Rong's mansion under the pretense of reconciliation, and then later said the incident on the night of Princess Rong's murder, "The reason why Princess Rong ended up like this is because she was instigated by Xu Yin to find that fan."
And this fan, Chen guessed that it was closely related to the bloody case in Baiyu Hutong, so he paid close attention to it when he learned that Xu Yin had this attempt.
"That night, in the ancestral hall of King Rong's mansion, I saw Xu Yin push Princess Rong to the guard's sword formation to get out, and the minister snatched this fan when the lantern of the palace guards who broke in was extinguished!"
When Pei Zhan said this, he took out the jade bone fan from his arms and presented it.
The queen took it in her hand, and as soon as her eyes touched the phoenix carving on the fan, her vicissitudes of life turned white, and then she opened the fan with a bang-
The emperor is a young husband and wife, most of his life has been in trouble together, the emperor from the commander of an army, to the uprising, and then to gather the rebels from all over the country, to fight in the north and south, the queen has not been accompanied by a day.
Except that she never went into battle to kill the enemy monarch in person like the emperor, there were all the other hardships and obstacles, and she had never faced them.
The admiration of the Manchu Dynasty for the queen also comes from his bravery and courage in not letting the eyebrows be shaved.
But at this moment, when she saw this fan, she showed unprecedented panic!
"San Lang!"
She handed the fan to the emperor with trembling hands, and as her eyes rose, everyone realized that the emperor's eyes were already shining brightly at this time!
"This fan, this fan must be hidden in King Rong's hand?!"
"The minister doesn't dare to say half a word."
The bloody case in Baiyu Hutong has been traced to the present, Pei Zhan and each of them have realized in their hearts that it is not an ordinary case, and the purpose of entering the palace today to state everything before and after this is mainly to expose Xu Yin, the emperor's reaction along the way is quite calm, but they didn't expect that when they saw this fan, they were not calm!
"Sure enough, the clue is here!"
The queen's voice also trembled, and she grabbed the emperor's hand, "The news they are tracking is not mistaken, Yi'er has been looming for so many years, and I still don't know where she is, the Rongwang Mansion has indeed intervened!" β
The emperor shook the empress's thin hand back, this man who had never flinched in the face of hardships and dangers, and who had never admitted defeat and surrendered in the face of Dayue's thousands of troops, had tears in his eyes at this moment.
Among the few people present, Pei Zhan and the Liang family brothers were still puzzled, and Du Mingqian, who didn't know everything until today, was even more shocked beyond words!
"Dare to ask Niangniang, I don't know who you are talking about 'Yi'er'?"
When Pei Zhan and Liang Chen heard this, they also suddenly glanced at each other.
The queen stood up, and her thin body leaned forward: "Yi'er, it's the emperor's eldest son!" β
The three words "the eldest son of the emperor" exploded above the heads of several people like a thunderclap!
Pei Zhan felt his voice float as if it was swimming from the sky: "The eldest son of the emperorβhasn't he disappeared for many years?" β
It's a polite way to say that it has been gone for many years, because it was more than twenty years ago!
In fact, none of these people present have ever seen the emperor's eldest son, for so many years, everyone only knows that the emperor and queen have three sons, and the eldest son born before the fight against the world was lost during the battle, and he was never found again, and the emperor and queen never mentioned it.
Therefore, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty thought that the eldest son of the emperor was no longer alive, or that the emperor had given up looking for it, and the eldest son of the emperor was just a vague symbol in the minds of all those who knew that there was such a thing.
Who would have thought that at this juncture when they exposed Xu Yin, the eldest son of the emperor who had never been mentioned would spit out of the queen's mouth?
Moreover, the nickname of the emperor's eldest son is actually "Yi"!
"He's just lost from us, he's not gone!"
The queen stepped off the couch, and she was tripped by herself while taking a step.
Pei Zhan and Liang Chen both stepped forward and hugged her, but she brushed the two of them away and said, "After separating from him, we still fought for two years. Two years later, the country was settled, we immediately sent people to search around along the clues of the year, in the war years, it was difficult to find people, but I was careful when we were separated, and I vowed to see each other in the future! So the people who sent them out are not headless flies.
"In those years, progress was slow, but he continued to find the places where he stayed.
"But just a few years ago, suddenly there was no news of him!"
Pei Zhan couldn't help but feel fluctuating: "I don't know how many years, how many years are it?" β
The emperor also stood up at this time: "Six years! It's been almost seven years, to be exact! β
This number of years has set off huge waves in the hearts of Pei Zhan and Liang Chen!
Pei Zhan took out an object from his sleeve: "There are two other things here, but on the night of the incident, the minister took them out of the secret compartment of King Rong's hidden fan, and asked the emperor and Niangniang to see if they recognized it!" β
The emperor and queen looked over, only to see a folded letter and a blood-stained handkerchief.
As soon as she saw the words embroidered on the handkerchief and the contents written on the letterhead, the queen immediately raised her head: "This is exactly the handkerchief I left for Yi'er!" The words on this are still embroidered by me, and I will never be mistaken! β
The emperor nodded, and after reading the contents of the letter repeatedly, he said slowly: "Why didn't you take it out just now?" β
"It's the minister's fault! The minister knew the importance of the fan, so he took it out, just to ask the emperor and Niangniang to identify, who might have owned this thing? Didn't expect ......"
When all the evidence was pushing everyone to be convinced that the identity of the deceased in Baiyu Hutong was unusual, everyone had a vague conjecture in their hearts, even if this person was not from the royal family, he must be very important to the clan!
Because only in this way is it worthy of the fear and desperate concealment of King Rong's father and son, so that even the other party's mistake has been destroyed, but they still have to keep these few pieces of incriminating evidence in hand for self-protection in the future!
Who would have thought that the deceased was so important that he was the eldest son of the emperor!
The emperor put the letter on the kang table, and his voice, which was already a little hoarse, seemed to be even more difficult to speak at this moment.
"This letter is clearly a letter secretly instructing others to target Yi'er, since they are all in the hands of King Rong, then you mean that King Rong was once instructed to attack Yi'er? The person they killed in Baiyu Hutong is my Yi'er? β
You are the son of heaven, and when you mention your children at this moment, you have even removed all the titles that show your identity, and the family in the world is obviously not different because of the difference in identity.
Pei Zhan leaned over: "According to what the eyewitness's mother-in-law saw, it was a father and son who were killed in Baiyue Hutong at that time, but I don't know how old His Royal Highness the emperor's eldest son is?" Do you already have children? β
The last time when the emperor's eldest son completely lost the news can be matched with the time of the Baiyu Hutong bloodbath, and the deceased is almost certain that the emperor's eldest son is the emperor's eldest son.
But it is about the blood of the royal family, but it should be cautious and cautious, and there is no room for mistakes.
"He was ten years old when he was separated from us, it was on our way north, to be exact in Huzhou, we happened to be stationed in Huzhou City, and that night we encountered an enemy raid, he originally followed his father in the barracks - he was very brave and very smart, he practiced martial arts since he was a child, read military books, and when everyone discussed combat strategies, he listened quietly by the side, and asked when he didn't understand, so everyone liked to teach him, and his father loved him the most!
"There was a fight that night, and he was there, carrying a short sword, and rushed in to protect me, but there were too many of us, and he took only a few guards with him, and finally fought the enemy.
"I thought of the worst, so I left him a fan, this one! Thinking that the soldiers will avoid the enemy soldiers in several ways, if I die in the future, this fan will be left to him to remember. If I'm still alive, I'll see you again with this fan!
"I remember very well that when he saw me make the decision to part with life and death, he just quietly took out the handkerchief I had embroidered for him from his sleeve, wiped away my tears, and then firmly told me that we would definitely meet again, and he said that none of us would die!"
"Later, the emperor defeated and dispersed the enemy the heaviest, and when we counted the number of people, we found that he was gone!
"You can't see anyone in life, you can't see a corpse in death!
"We searched for three days and three nights, turning over almost every inch of the city, until at last one of the old soldiers, who was guarding the gates at the foot of the city wall, said that he had seen him riding a foal that night out of the city with two escorts!
"We hurriedly counted the number of guards, and sure enough, two guards also disappeared together!"
The queen said it in one breath, and her body was still ricketed.
The emperor stretched out his hand and put his arm on his arm, trying his best to keep his voice gentle: "Minzhi is asking Yi'er's age, you calm down first, let's figure out what is going on first." β
The queen sat down on the edge of the couch, and tears suddenly rolled down.
"My Yi'er is only ten years old, and he wants to protect his mother desperately, but when he disappears like this, I, as his mother, is the queen of the Great Zhou, and I already have countless manpower and convenience, but after so many years, I haven't even found out where he is!
"For so many years, there has not been a day that I have not felt guilty about it! You know, he was our first child, and he was with us in our most difficult years! β
When the emperor heard this, a trace of pain flashed in his eyes.
He turned to Pei Zhan: "Yi'er was ten years old when she disappeared, and two years later, we entered the capital and decided the world.
"According to what you said, he was twenty-eight years old when the bloody incident in Baiyu Hutong occurred.
"At this age, if you have already added the eldest grandson of the emperor to me, it is very normal!
"Now-" He raised his eyes, looked at the young generals in front of him, and finally his eyes fell on Liang Zhi: "Liang Zhi Du Mingqian obeyed the order, and I will immediately go to King Rong's mansion and bring King Rong and his son Yang Yu, as well as Zhang Huan and Zhang Shicheng, all to the royal court!" Make no mistake!
"Then pass the order Dali Temple Qing, Dali Temple Shaoqing, the Imperial History of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the Deputy Imperial History, and the Prince-"
When he said this, his eyes suddenly sharpened: "Let them all come to me!" β
