Eight hours ago.

Li Bing hurriedly returned to the palace from the Taiji Palace, but was told that King Xiang had been summoned to the palace and was not in the palace.

After analyzing the situation with Mi Xin, he jumped up and down in a hurry, waited for two hours, ran out of patience, and could only enter the palace to find it by himself.

He couldn't wait to say his bold conjecture, Li Yan just smiled faintly and said eight words: "The overall situation has been decided, don't panic!"

Sure enough, since this matter can reach the ears of Li Xuan, such an unfavored prince, how can the main owner of Taiji Palace not be vigilant.

On the night of the 26th, King Mu had a secret conversation with Yu Chaoen, Sikong Wen, and Rongjiao, and on the 27th, the emperor received news and secretly transferred the Tongguan garrison into Chang'an. Early in the morning of the 28th, King Xiang was summoned to the palace to discuss the matter.

Time comes back to the present. Inside the Daming Palace.

On the top of the three-story white marble corridor, there is the largest and most solemn place in the entire Daming Palace - the Jinluan Palace.

Similar to the appearance of other palaces, Zhudong black tiles, red walls and yellow beams, but the palace is not six feet and six feet wide, but nine feet and nine feet, which is more magnificent and majestic.

After entering through the four double doors, there are two rows of 28 columns in the hall, each column is four zhang high, reaching the top rafters. The pillar body is carved with five claws around the pillar dragon, and is covered with ninety-nine layers of gold leaf, shining brightly.

The ground in the hall is one inch thick black jade slab, walk along the column, in the middle of the Jinluan Palace, stand a pure gold Jiuhe Tianwei Feilong platform, the bottom of the platform is four zhang square, the table top is three zhang three, a total of three sides of the stage mouth are set up, each side of the nine steps, white jade steps, gold column, red carpet.

In the middle of this flying dragon platform, it is the emperor's golden luan couch, which is six feet six inches wide and is cast in pure gold; the bottom of the couch is three mountains and five mountains, five lakes and four seas are embossed; and the handrails on three sides are hollowed out and carved nine dragons.

A soft cushion and soft pillow, are made of gold silk and yellow silk, color line embroidery, the picture is the Nine Dragons Yutian, and the three mountains and water, the sun and the moon are embellished, filled with high-quality Quanzhou cotton, soft and luxurious.

At this moment, the sixty forbidden armies were lined up on both sides, and there were five people standing in the hall, namely the four princes and the crown prince in the procession, and one kneeling in the middle was King Mu.

"Son-in-law, don't you tell the truth yet?" Emperor Li Yu (Tang Dynasty Sect) has already sent out a lot of anger, and now he is quite calm.

King Mu was dressed in court clothes, covered in blood, and before he could change it, he was ordered to be arrested by the emperor.

"Father, the son really doesn't. He paused and bowed again: "Erchen doesn't know why his father is suspicious! Erchen swears by his ancestors and ancestors, and his son's son did not participate in today's assassination, please ask my father to check it!" After speaking, he kowtowed violently again, making a muffled sound, and the blood stains on his forehead stained the black jade plate, which was particularly distinct.

"Do you still dare to swear by your ancestors?" Li Yu was excited by these words, picked up a stack of pieces on the desk casually, and threw them towards King Mu.

He snorted coldly: "Mingcha?" After speaking, his voice vibrated louder and louder, and under the anger, he almost shouted hoarsely: "Okay! Okay! Okay! Then I will show you Mingcha and I will ask you! The night before yesterday, did you meet and conspire with 'Sikongwen', 'Zheng Guogong' and a Hui person in the mansion?"

King Mu was stunned for a moment, and his eyes were full of shock. He straightened up, looked at the emperor, and shook his head again and again:

"No! No! Father Emperor Mingjian, that night Erchen did meet with General Sikong Wen and Zheng Guogong. However, it was just to pick up the dust for General Sikongwen, because Zheng Guogong was familiar with him, so he was invited to come...... This has nothing to do with today's assassination, Father!"

"Catch the wind and wash the dust?" Li Yu slapped the table: "Do you need to dress up in disguise to catch the wind and wash the dust? Do you need to enter through the side door of your palace? I don't even bring a subordinate with me! I have to wait until after dark!"

The eunuchs around him were afraid that he would hurt himself in anger, and he was about to dissuade him, but he looked at Li Yu and picked up the inkstone with one hand, and smashed it towards King Mu: "Son, don't recruit yet, are you waiting for me to use torture!"

When Li Yu was young, he also practiced martial arts, and the inkstone smashed on King Mu's forehead impartially, dyeing half of his face pure black.

The inkstone was already bulky, and where did King Mu dare to hide, a hole was smashed out of his right forehead. After he screamed in pain, he held back again, only to feel the blood on his forehead mixed with ink flowing into his mouth, sour and salty.

"Father Emperor Mingjian, the son was afraid of provoking criticism from the government and the opposition, saying that the son of the minister of private education had bad intentions, so he asked the two adults to come over at night to avoid people's eyes. He fell to the ground and said, "Moreover, the sons and daughters don't know why my father would associate this incident with today's assassination...... Erchen was only in the mansion to pick up the wind for General Sikongwen, and he didn't do anything else!"

"Didn't do anything?" Li Yu glared angrily: "Okay! I'll let you die!"

He turned around and asked the chief eunuch beside him, "Hasn't Haiyuan come back yet?"

The father-in-law leaned over to his ear: "Your Majesty, the commander of Haiyuan is already waiting outside the palace." ”

"Biography!"

The eunuch raised his body and shouted in a loud voice to the outside of the hall: "Rumor! The commander of the forbidden army, Meng Haiyuan, has come to see you. ”

Let's say that Meng Haiyuan, the commander of the forbidden army, was in the procession of today's sacrifice, but he was edicted by Li Yu and stayed in the palace to do his duty. What I am afraid of is that in the Ten Guards of the Northern Ya, as soon as the left and right Yulin armies leave, Yu Chaoen's divine power and divine strategy four armies rebelled in the palace, and no one controlled the overall situation.

Meng Haiyuan is not tall, in his forties, and has a short mustache. Dressed in bright silver chain mail, every step of the way, in addition to the heavy steps, also made the sound of rustling scales.

"Haiyuan, you tell him. ”

Meng Haiyuan knelt on one knee and clenched his fists: "Your Majesty, the assassins have been cleared today." The Janissaries killed 1,352 Assassins and captured 373, for a total of 1,7825.

Among them, 420 Hui horse bandits and 542 elite soldiers of General Sikongwen have been identified, and the identities of the others have not yet been ascertained. These people have changed their clothes and weapons, and they are deliberately covering up their identities. About fifty others escaped, including three of the Tsing Yi Assassin leaders. ”

As soon as he finished saying this, King Mu's face was like ashes, and he kowtowed again and again: "Father, it's not a son, it's not a son." It was indeed just a general to pick up the wind that day. This must be someone to blame and assassinate, and the retainers don't know anything!"

Li Yu completely ignored King Mu's self-defense, and said to Meng Haiyuan: "What's the matter?

"Your Majesty, judging from the results of the current investigation, there is no one. At that time, the four armies of the 'Shenwei Shence' in the forbidden army also did not move, and Lord Zheng Guogong (Yu Chaoen) was in the palace at that time and did not enter the palace. ”

The emperor's face turned dark, and he said coldly: "Got it! What about Si Kongwen?"

"The minister has been escorted over, just outside the palace!"

was summoned, and Si Kongwen was also summoned to the Jinluan Palace. He was dressed in regular clothes, and because of his strong martial arts, his hands were tied behind his back with iron chains, and he couldn't move.

As soon as he entered the hall, he caught a glimpse of King Mu kneeling on the ground, and after glancing at each other, he immediately knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, the minister has nothing to do with this matter!

Tang Lu's military attache above the fifth rank only used to kneel half-kneeling, but Sikong Wen was kneeling on both knees at the moment, which showed the panic in his heart.

"Believe you, aren't those rebellious sergeants your men?" For some reason, Li Yu's attitude towards Si Kongwen was much softer than that towards King Mu.

Sikong Wen looked horrified: "According to what Commander Meng Haiyuan said, those are the relatives brought by the ministers to report back to Beijing this time, but the ministers don't know how they can be involved in today's rebel ranks! Please Your Majesty believe in Weichen!"

Meng Haiyuan looked at Sikong Wen's quibble, and said: "The minister has verified that the four lieutenant generals of General Sikong Wen have all fled, and among the leaders at this moment today, the last person to kill the eunuch in the dragon is one of the four lieutenant generals, the loyal general-Chen Qingniu!"

After saying a word, the atmosphere on the field suddenly became more depressing, and the four princes and the crown prince were all shocked.

"Si Kongwen, I treat you well, and you are also a real general who came up with one hand! If it weren't for the ironclad evidence, I couldn't believe it until I died, and you would have come to assassinate me!" Li Yu was heartbroken: Compared with life and death, King Mu and Si Kongwen, the betrayal of his own son and cronies made him more sad.

"Your Majesty, the minister is innocent. Although Sikong Wen is brave, he is clumsy, and he doesn't know how to defend himself except for shouting grievances.

"You and King Mu are not familiar with each other, and there are no military contacts, how can you meet in private? You can tell me clearly!" Li Yu also felt that this matter was really strange, King Mu and Yu Chaoen wanted to rebel against him, but Si Kongwen was almost a person who was brought up by himself, and the martial artist was the most generous.

Sikong Wen couldn't stand down: "On that day, the ministers finished their duties, and as soon as they left the palace, they were stopped by the retainers of King Mu. He said that King Mu was sympathetic to the hardships of the frontier soldiers, so he wanted to take the wind for his subordinates. Weichen was afraid of the impeachment of the civil officials, saying that the military attache had a personal relationship with the prince, but he refused. But King Mu invited again and again, and Weichen could only obey his fate, in order to avoid provoking right and wrong, he changed his regular clothes and entered through the side door.

As for Zheng Guogong and the Hui people, before Wei Chen entered the Mu Wangfu, he didn't know that they were inside. During the banquet, King Mu wanted to recruit me to support him, but Weichen was only loyal to His Majesty and did not want to join the party struggle. As for today's rebellion and assassination, the ministers don't know about it. ”

Li Yu had a headache when he heard it: selfishly speaking, he believed that it was commonplace, and the trust established under more than ten years of great military exploits was not so fragile. But with the facts in front of us, such a simple self-defense seems too weak. Thinking about it, I have a headache.

Suddenly, a stirring spirit thought of the conspiracy at that time, except for Si Kongwen and Yu Chaoen. Isn't there another one?

"What about the Hui man in the Mu Wang's Mansion at that time?

As soon as Sikong Wen finished speaking, he didn't know him, but Meng Haiyuan said: "Your Majesty, that person has been caught, and he is also among the people who plotted rebellion and assassination today." His identity has also been confirmed, and he is the second leader of the biggest horse bandit in the West Hui 'Black Eagle Pond' - A Fall. ”

As he spoke, he glanced at King Sikong Wen and King Mu: "His testimony does not match the statements of His Royal Highness King Sikong Wen and King Mu!"

"What did he say?"

"This is a confession! Please check it out of Your Majesty!" Meng Haiyuan took out a confession from his cuff and said:

He said that His Royal Highness had been preparing for a battle with the crown prince a year ago, and had promised that after becoming emperor, he would help Black Eagle Pond attack the Turks and make it a vassal state. Because of this, Black Eagle Pond paid tribute to King Mu several times a year, totaling 30,000 taels of gold and countless amounts of silver, for the purpose of party fighting.

Abruser said that King Mu had made a plan for rebellion at the end of the year a month ago. Let him transfer 700 elite people from Huifu, disguise themselves, and blend into Chang'an. He also said that the countermeasures were discussed in the palace the night before, and the time of His Majesty's route was calculated accurately, and he and Sikong heard the assassination outside the palace, and Zheng Guogong cleared the people loyal to His Majesty in the palace, so as to usurp the throne!

Letters and receipts from this year are all corroborated by this. A rough check by the minister showed that the handwriting and seal were consistent, and it was not perjury. The evidence is outside the palace, although His Majesty is summoned. ”

"What else is summoned!" Li Yu finished reading Ah Yuse's testimony, he was furious, and slapped the armrest with a palm, especially angry. He pulled out the 'Son of Heaven Sword' next to him and gritted his teeth: "Son-of-law, you are so bold! It is commonplace to hear that I believe in you so much!"

"I'm going to kill you!" he said as he stepped down from the Jiuhe Tianwei Flying Dragon Platform, and was about to slash at King Mu with his sword.

The eunuchs on both sides wanted to stop it, but now the emperor was angry, and he was holding a sword in his hand.

Fortunately, King Xiang is in the palace, in terms of status and martial arts, I am afraid that he is the only one who can persuade the emperor.

Li Yu stopped in front of Li Yu: "Brother Huang is angry! Even if King Mu really rebelled, please find out the case and deal with it again, and you must not be lynched now." He whispered again, "This is spreading out......"

Li Yu slashed his sword beside King Mu, and the sword body erased the electric light on the black jade slab: "Spread the word, my son assassinated Lao Tzu, the whole world knows about it, and I am still afraid of spreading it?"

After speaking, he looked at King Mu viciously: "You have always taken His Majesty Taizong as an example, and you are bent on recreating the prosperous era of Kaiyuan, and I am still proud of you! Is this how you learned? Do you want to make another change in the Shenwu Sect and kill your father and ascend the throne?"

"Erchen doesn't dare!"

"Erchen doesn't dare!"

"Erchen doesn't dare!"

The evidence is ironclad, and King Mu has no way to defend himself, so he can only keep kowtowing.

Tang Taizong I was famous, but the change of Shenwumen, if you want to put it on the bright side, it is a rebellion. The people can't spread it, but now it comes out of the mouth of Emperor Li Yu, and it is also angry and out of proportion.

"If I hadn't taken precautions in advance, let the eunuch sit in the dragon for me, and transferred troops from Tongguan again, I wouldn't have been able to succeed by your rebel son this time. Originally, it was just an embankment, but I didn't expect it! Do you really dare! Do you want my throne so much?"

Li Yu was heartbroken, angry and angry, and raised his sword to slash again, this time it was a real blow to King Mu's head, but fortunately, Li Yu was quick and stopped him.

He still didn't understand his hatred, so he kicked King Mu in the face and beat him to the ground.

There was already blood on King Mu's forehead, and when he went down, the ink, blood, and boot prints were mixed together, and he couldn't even see his face clearly.

"Erchen doesn't dare!"

"Erchen doesn't dare!"

"Erchen doesn't dare!"

King Mu knelt down again, and kept kowtowing, no matter how he defended himself, he was pale in the face of this ironclad evidence.

"Spread my will: all the people involved will be put in the prison and strictly guarded. King Xiang presided over the trial, and the squire of the Criminal Department and the commander of the forbidden army were assistants. In addition, Yu Chaoen is under house arrest and is not allowed to go out until the matter is clarified.

The left and right gods and gods will take a break for a month, during which the Tongguan garrison will temporarily garrison the palace and carry out the responsibility of the forbidden army. ”
