Tang Shuyi heard the words of the inkstone, her head was dizzy for a moment, she silently took a deep breath, looked down at the inkstone and said, "What's the matter, get up and talk." ”

The inkstone stroked the ground and wanted to stand up, but he was so frightened that he couldn't get up now, and finally simply continued to kneel on the ground and said, "Today... Today, the general taught the second son to draw a map, and the location was Xishan on the outskirts of the city. The slave and graphite followed the second prince together, but at the foot of the mountain, they met the second prince who came to hunt.

The second prince saluted the second prince, but the second prince did not let our son get up, and said that he would let the second prince hunt another red fox for him. The second prince was naturally unwilling, and the two had a quarrel, and in the end, the second prince ignored the second prince and went up the mountain.

We thought that this matter was over, but we didn't expect to meet the second prince again on the mountain, and he still asked our son to hunt red foxes for him, and the two had a quarrel again, and then they also started to fight.

When the two were fighting fiercely, an arrow shot over and stuck directly into the neck of the second prince, and the second prince died on the spot. His guards stopped us, and some people went to the palace to report the news, and it didn't take long for the Imperial Forest Army to arrive, and the second son was arrested and went to the palace. ”

"He's damned!" After listening to the words of the inkstone, Tang Shuyi gritted his teeth and said. She only hated herself now, and she didn't think of a plan to kill the second prince earlier.

"Steward Zhao, take someone to search in Xishan, search within a radius of ten miles, and don't let go of any clues." Tang Shuyi looked at Steward Zhao and said.

At this time, her mind was very clear. As soon as I heard this, I knew that someone had prepared in advance and wanted to kill the second prince. It's just that I don't know if that person calculated Xiao Yuming in advance.

But no matter what, there will be traces of things done, and if you search now, you may be able to find some clues. But if the other party is a master, maybe all traces have been erased.

Steward Zhao got the order and immediately ran away. Tang Shuyi turned her head and said to Xiao Yuzhu: "Go to your grandfather immediately, I will go to the palace now, you stay in the Guogong Mansion and don't come out until your mother picks you up." ”

Xiao Yuzhu nodded with tears in her eyes, and then strode out. Tang Shuyi looked at Xiao Yiyuan again, "You can arrange the things here." ”

Xiao Yiyuan also hurriedly said yes, Xiao Chengming and the others were already stupid and couldn't say a word. Tang Shuyi walked out, if anyone wanted her son's life, she would fight with whomever she wanted.

As she walked out, she said, "I'll ride to the palace." ”

Cuiyun hurriedly ran to prepare. Tang Shuyi walked quickly to the gate, then turned over and got on the horse, raised the horsewhip and ran all the way, startling many pedestrians on the road, but she couldn't care so much.

galloped all the way to the palace, and when I got off the horse, I saw my father-in-law Jiao Kangsheng in front of the emperor, waiting not far away. Seeing her, Jiao Kangsheng trotted over, saluted and said, "Mrs. Hou, the emperor is waiting for you." ”

"Father-in-law will lead the way." Tang Shuyi's face was calm and authentic.

"Madame, please." Jiao Kangsheng didn't expect Mrs. Yongning Hou to be so calm in this situation, and then his attitude became more respectful.

"The emperor knew that something had happened to the second prince, and he was shocked and sad, how did he become like this." Jiao Kangsheng said in his mouth, beckoning someone to carry the sedan chair over.

Tang Shuyi listened to Jiao Kangsheng's words, looked at the sedan chair in front of him, and sneered in his heart. Is it interesting that this emperor acts like a drama every day? If you have the ability, you will fight the country of Rouli!

got on the sedan chair, and after a while, I arrived outside the imperial study. As soon as he stood still, he heard the cry inside, "Your Majesty, Jing Ming died so miserably!" You want to avenge our children! ”

Tang Shuyi heard it, this was Liang Guifei's voice.

"Mrs. Hou, please come in." Jiao Kangsheng's voice sounded, and Tang Shuyi stepped in. Seeing that Xiao Yuming was tied up and kneeling on the ground by Wuhuada, but she was fine and there were no injuries on her body, she breathed a sigh of relief.

"Courtiers see the emperor." She fell to her knees and saluted the emperor respectfully.

But before the emperor could speak, Liang Guifei looked at her like a knife and said, "Your son killed my son, and I will let him pay for his life." ”

Tang Shuyi was not afraid of her, turned her head to look at her and said, "Concubine Shenyan, my son can't afford to be charged with murder." ”

Liang Guifei seemed to have gone crazy, she pointed at Xiao Yuming and cried, "It's him, it's him, the brute, who killed my son." ”

"Concubine Liang, be cautious!" Tang Shuyi's eyes also sharpened, "If my son is a beast, then what is his father and what is his grandfather?" And what are the soldiers who guarded the Northwest Frontier for the Great Qian Dynasty? Are they all brutes too? ”

She knew that she must not be weak now, and if there was a trace of weakness, her son's life would not be saved.

"You... You..."Concubine Liang was speechless, turned to look at the emperor and cried, "Your Majesty, you want to avenge our son!" Kill him, you must kill him. ”

The emperor's face was tense, he glanced at Tang Shuyi, he didn't expect Xiao Huai's wife to be so calm and sharp, and she moved out her biggest reliance in a few words. Xiao Huai and Xiao Chengkun both sacrificed their lives for the country, even if they want to kill Xiao Yuming, they can't kill them at will.

"Your Majesty, Tang Guogong and General Xiang are here." Jiao Kangsheng came in to report.

The emperor's face was even more unsightly, but he still said, "Let them in." ”

Jiao Kangsheng went out, and after a while, Tang Guogong and General Xiang came in together, and the two of them knelt on the ground to salute the emperor. The Emperor let out a long sigh, this sigh was filled with pain and helplessness, "Get up." ”

Tang Shuyi and the three of them got up, and the emperor also sat them down. As soon as he sat down, Jiao Kangsheng came in again to report, "Your Majesty, the concubine is here." ”

The emperor clenched his fists, and there was ruthlessness in his eyes. He said, "Please come in, the concubine." ”

After the concubine came in, the emperor got up: "Why are you here too?" ”

"I heard that something happened to Jingming, so I came over to take a look." The concubine said.

The emperor asked the concubine to sit down, and sighed heavily, with endless pain, "The concubine said that Jingming was killed by the second son of the Marquis of Yongning. ”

"I didn't," Xiao Yuming, who was kneeling there and didn't speak, suddenly said: "I didn't kill him, he was shot to death by someone else with an arrow." I was fighting him and I didn't have a bow or arrow with me, so how could I shoot him? ”

"You don't, what about your men?" Liang Guifei pointed at Xiao Yuming and said, "It's you, it's you who killed my son." ”

"Concubine Liang, everything must be evidenced, and you can't talk in the vernacular." Tang Shuyi looked at Liang Guifei and said.

At this time, Tang Guogong looked at Xiao Yuming and said, "Tell me, what happened at that time?" ”

When it first happened, Xiao Yuming was still a little scared, but now he is completely afraid. The big deal is death, what else? He explained what had happened in a clear and coherent manner. Tang Shuyi listened carefully, and there was no discrepancy with what the inkstone told her before.

After listening to General Xiang's words, he said: "The minister can prove that Xiao Yuming went out from the minister's mansion today, and he only brought two entourages, and those two entourages were beside the second prince and Xiao Yuming at that time, and the arrow was shot at the second prince from a distance, not by them." ”
