He came early, and after sweeping half of the folds, a few scholars came over.

In the past, when sorting excerpts, several scholars would chat casually, but today, they were all silent, especially Cao Taizhuo, the head of the household, who looked particularly bad.

Yesterday, when Sheng Hong listed the crimes of the British public at the Taiji Palace, he mentioned that the British public used the five princes to interfere in the year-end evaluation of household officials.

Although Sheng Hong didn't name him, as a head of the household, his face was naturally dull.

Several powerful ministers were silent, and Li Qiao, a small five-rank official, naturally did not dare to say anything, he worked silently, and soon sorted all the folds.

It's time to go to see Sheng Hong with the fold.

When he arrived at the Seeking Talent Hall and saw Sheng Hong, he quietly observed Sheng Hong's expression.

Sheng Hong's complexion is white, so it is quite obvious when he has dark circles under his eyes, and Sheng Hong's eyebrows have been wrinkled unconsciously.

Obviously, Sheng Hong didn't rest well.

Yesterday he only cared about celebration and didn't have contact with the Seven Princes, so he didn't know what was going on in the palace yesterday.

However, the Five Princes, Concubine Dong Guifei, and some officials who originally supported the Five Princes will definitely ask Sheng Hong for intercession.

Sheng Hong must be very irritable in his heart when dealing with these people.

Therefore, today is still an honest contemporary pen, as for whether those innocent people have compensation, he will wait for Sheng Hong to be in a better mood and ask.

It's a big deal that he donated some silver, and those people are really miserable.

Fortunately, Sheng Hong is an emotionally stable emperor, and he rarely angers others, although he is in a bad mood, he does not spread his anger on Qian San, Li Qiao and others.

Li Qiao's ghostwriter sat quietly until noon.

Sheng Hong let him leave the palace after lunch.

The wheat is almost ripe, and in the afternoon Sheng Hong will convene the ministers to talk about this year's wheat harvest.

The people regard food as their heaven, and we must pay attention to the food issue.

Li Qiao had a hearty lunch in the palace and then left the palace.

However, unfortunately, as soon as he came to the palace gate, he saw a person walking towards the palace gate from a distance on a neat bluestone slab:

It's not someone else, it's the Five Princes.

The fifth prince originally walked forward with his head down, looking preoccupied, but the eunuch who followed behind him reminded him in a whisper, and he raised his head.

When I looked up, I saw Li Qiao.

Lai, buckwheat.

gritted his teeth and read these two words, and then he shook the hem of his clothes, and went straight to Li Qiao with a gloomy face.

Li Qiao: "......"

Well, sooner or later, it's going to have to happen sooner or later.

He continued to walk forward at the original speed, and when the five princes came to him, he saluted the five princes respectfully: "Xiaguan has seen the five princes. ”

However, before he could straighten up, the fifth prince stepped out with a sharp step, and his arm reached in front of his heart.

Obviously, the fifth prince was going to grab him by the collar.

He stepped back, dodging the claws of the fifth prince: "Fifth prince, this is the gate of the palace, please calm down." ”

As soon as these words came out, the anger of the fifth prince soared again, he sneered, and raised his foot again.

But Li Qiao was defending against him, dodging to the left and dodging his attack.

failed to succeed twice, and the fifth prince's face was as bad as if he had swallowed a caterpillar alive: "You still dare to hide?!" ”

"Then why don't you go down to the palace and run to the palace?"

Li Qiao pointed to the palace gate a few meters behind him.

There was a group of stubborn soldiers standing there, a total of twenty people, and at this time, these twenty elites of the forbidden army were all looking at him and the five princes with fierce eyes.

At the entrance of the palace, it is forbidden for anyone to make noise.

Except for Sheng Hong and Shengjun's father and son, no one is allowed to make trouble here.

The Fifth Prince: "! ”

It's a threat to him!

However, looking at those well-trained forbidden soldiers, his hot head calmed down.

Yesterday, he had just been reprimanded by his father, and he was really unreasonable to act against Li Qiao at this time.

However, looking at the deliberately innocent appearance on Li Qiao's face, his teeth itched with hatred.

Stretched out his hand and slapped Li Qiao twice, he asked with a gloomy face: "The day before yesterday, you already knew that your father and emperor looked bad, so why didn't you send a message to this prince?!" ”

“？”

Li Qiao's eyes widened, and the look on her face became even more innocent: "Regarding the matter of the Taiji Palace, the lower officials can't reveal a word to the outside world." ”

"Besides, at that time, the lower officials didn't know that the anger of the saint was directed at the British duke, and the lower officials were not qualified to see the secret fold."

The Fifth Prince: "......"

He took a deep breath, the fingers of his hands clenched into fists crackling.

But he couldn't refute Li Qiao's words.

As far as he knew, Li Qiao was indeed not qualified to see the secret fold.

But he was even more aggrieved in his heart!

If this anger is not vented again, then he will soon be suffocated to death!

stretched out his hand and nodded Li Qiao fiercely, and he said: "Cheng, this prince doesn't have anything else to do with you, this prince only tells you one thing." ”

"You Li Qiao, you are a murderer!"

Accompanied by the word murderer, his expression was a little hideous, which showed that he hated Li Qiao very much.

Li Qian frowned: "Xia Guan doesn't know what you mean by this. ”

"What do you mean? Ha, if you hadn't robbed the Lu family's gambling house, if you hadn't fought with the Lu family's ducks, how could the British Duke open a few more gambling houses? ”

"Although the British Duke killed someone, you are not innocent, you are an accomplice, and you are also a murderer!"

Li Qiao: "......"

He looked at the five princes in silence without justification.

The face that was deliberately expressionly expressed just now in order to anger the five princes was only solemn at this time.

The fifth prince saw that Li Qiao was silent, and immediately sneered a few times: "If you don't refute, you are acquiescing, you Li Qiao is full of benevolence, righteousness and morality, but in fact, you have also forced hundreds of lives to death." ”

"You also have blood on your hands that can't be washed off!"

I knew that this Li Qiao could jump so high, so he must have secretly sent someone to kill Li Qiao!

Since he can't do it now, he must ruin Li Qiao's good reputation.

His mother is right, this Li Qiao is indeed a murderer, if it weren't for Li Qiao pressing step by step, how could the British Duke be dizzy!

"The five princes, those people who lost their lives, those innocent family members who were implicated, these tragedies, the lower officials are indeed very heartbroken."

"But in the dispute with the British duke, the lower officials were all forced to fight back, so the lower officials could not agree with your accusations."

"Instead of angrily scolding the lower officials, why don't you go and find the problems of the Lu family, if Lu Wenrong, the wasteful who has achieved nothing, has not insulted the lower officials, then there will be no today's affairs?"

"The lower officials still have something to do, and you must have important things to do when you enter the palace, so the lower officials will not delay your errands, you go slowly."

After saying this, Li Qiao didn't say anything, just stood in place with her eyes down.

The pleasure in the heart of the fifth prince that poked at Li Qiao's sore spot was most of the water by Li Qiao's cold attitude.

He stretched out his hand and nodded at Li Qiao again, but he couldn't refute anything, and in the end, he could only repeat what he had just said hatefully: "You don't exonerate yourself, you are a murderer anyway!" ”

Throwing down these words, he entered the palace with a gloomy face.

Indeed, he had something serious to talk about when he was looking for his mother, and he couldn't be delayed for too long by this flea surnamed Li.

The five princes entered the palace, Li Qiao returned to the Hanlin Academy, Xin Zhi saw him, and hurriedly recounted to him the performance of the Lu family who came to him yesterday.

After listening to the various ugliness of the Lu family, his mood improved.

I continued to read in the afternoon, but at about two o'clock in the afternoon, a small eunuch suddenly came to the Hanlin Academy: Sheng Hong summoned him to the palace.

Didn't Sheng Hong gather a few ministers to talk about the wheat harvest?

Why did he let him go to the pen again, and the conversation was over so quickly?

Puzzled in his heart, he followed the little eunuch to the Seeking Virtuous Palace.

As soon as he stepped into the door of the Seeking Talents, he saw the five princes kneeling straight in front of the imperial case, and Sheng Hong was sitting behind the imperial case with a folding book.

"Li Aiqing is here, come here."

Sheng Hong saw him, put down the fold in his hand, and then beckoned to him.

Li Qiao stepped forward quickly, came to Sheng Hong and saluted first, and then saluted the five princes.

"I heard that you and Ang'er had an argument at the palace gate, and Ang'er said that you are a murderer, but is there such a thing?"

Sheng Hong asked with an eyebrow.

“…… This is indeed the case. ”

Li Qian replied respectfully.

"Do you think you're a murderer?"

Sheng Hong asked again.

Wechen thinks no. But I don't kill Boren, but Boren died because of me, so Wechen is willing to donate some silver to go out, so that those innocent family members can live a better life. ”

"Heh, now I know how to donate silver, why didn't you say donate in front of me just now? Fake benevolence and false righteousness, deliberately done to show his father. ”

The fifth prince sneered.

Although he knelt, it did not delay him from making mockery of Li Qiao.

When Sheng Hong heard this, he also sneered: "Do it for me to see? Then you can do it for me. Those tragic deaths, seriously, are also related to you, if you didn't want to take the silver from the Lu family, would there be such a thing?! ”
