Chapter 32: The Culprit
Lin'an City.
Walking on this street, Li Tingzhi looked at the bustling scene in front of him, although he was in the middle of the city, he felt a little vain, as if he was still on the bleak city.
"Hehe, just to maintain all this, are you so cruel to sacrifice others?"
With thoughts in his mind, Li Tingzhi felt as if he was still standing on the head of Chongqing.
The two bodies that fell, they didn't say a word, but they told themselves in the most decisive way what exactly caused them to die here!
"The military song should sing the big knife ring, and swear to destroy Hu Nu out of the jade pass. Only solve the battlefield and die for the country, why should the horse leather shroud be returned. ”
As a soldier, he always thought that he might one day die on the battlefield, or die of old age in the sickbed, but today he saw the once brave soldier commit suicide on his city gate so aggrieved.
And the people who surround it are still their comrades-in-arms!
Stepping into the Qinzheng Hall in a trance, Li Tingzhi felt that he still couldn't get rid of this nightmare.
"Xiangfu, Xiang Shibi, Cao Shixiong, how are they?"
Standing high on the dragon chair, Zhao Yun overlooked the ministers, and the expressions of the ministers who were worried, confident, or panicked were all seen by him one by one, and his words and deeds also made these ministers happy or sad, or annoyed or laughing, and performed an ugly farce.
And this also made Zhao Yun very proud, and secretly thought: "Sure enough, I am the emperor who dominates the dynasty!"
Li Tingzhi came to his senses at this time, and hurriedly bowed his head and replied: "Your Majesty, Xiang Shibi and Cao Shixiong have killed themselves on the head of the city, and they have already been ambushed!" And his voice was also a little erratic, but it was even heavier, and the heaviness made people feel that they were servants, especially when it came to the word "ambush", it was almost like gritting teeth.
Zhao Yun was surprised and asked, "Aiqing." I listen to your tone, and I seem to be dissatisfied?"
"Your Majesty. How dare Weichen? It's just that the minister has one thing, and he doesn't know whether to say it or not. Li Tingzhi hurriedly argued, and then remembered what was in his mind, and felt a little nervous.
Zhao Yun's expression was extremely relaxed, and he said with a smile: "It's okay to say anything, I listen." ”
Now that Xiang Shibi and Cao Shixiong are dead, and Da Song has regained his peace, he will of course be happy.
"That's good Your Majesty. Li Tingzhi saw that Zhao Yun was in a good mood, and secretly paid attention to it in his heart, before he complained: "As far as the minister knows, the person who killed Yu Yu three years ago was not the Red Fengjun, but someone else!"
"What?"
At first hearing the news, Zhao Yun was already dumbfounded.
Standing aside, Uncle Xie Fang also frowned, took a step forward, and asked, "What did you say?"
"Your Majesty. Prime minister. Li Tingzhi bowed down to the two, and then said: "As the so-called people are about to die, their words are also good. When I went to exterminate Xiang Shibi and Cao Shixiong, I listened to the two of them explain that there was another murderer who killed Yu Jue! Moreover, it was between us. He swept the huge hall, but looked at every minister with suspicion.
was seen by Li Tingzhi like this, and everyone exploded one after another, shouting in their mouths.
"How is it possible? I don't even dare to kill chickens, how can I kill Yu Jue?"
"You must know that Yu Jue is an earth immortal, except for Xiao Feng in the world, who can defeat him?"
"Li Tingzhi. What is your purpose in fabricating such rumors?"
“......”
The noise made everyone's ears feel very uncomfortable.
Zhao Yun, who was standing on the dragon chair, saw this scene, and immediately showed a displeased look, and Dong Songchen, who was next to him, saw this scene and immediately shouted: "Silence!"
This sound suddenly made the ministers present wake up directly as if they had been poured a bucket of cold water, and quickly stood up straight, not daring to trespass in the slightest.
Zhao Yun then complained: "As an official of the imperial court, don't you feel that the previous scene is extremely embarrassing?" All the ministers were ashamed, and they all bowed their heads and apologized.
After that, Zhao Yun looked at Li Tingzhi, who was still indifferent, and asked, "What did you just say?" Seriously, he really didn't want the news he heard before to be fake!
Li Tingzhi replied in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, Yu Jue's death was not committed by the Chifeng Army, but by another murderer!"
"There is another murderer, you may be too full of words!" Uncle Xie Fang looked sarcastic, but he muttered in his heart, full of suspicion.
At the beginning, he was responsible for Yu Jue's coming to Lin'an, and his accidental death was also unexpected by Uncle Xie Fang, so he had to use an excuse and directly say that it was done by Chifeng Jun, so he fooled the past.
Li Tingzhi said with a smile: "Since I said it, there is naturally enough evidence." ”
Even though the other party was the prime minister, Li Tingzhi did not move at all, without any fear, and then took out a scroll from his sleeve and complained: "These days, the minister has been investigating this matter. And the evidence is all here. ”
Let the eunuch take the fold, and Li Tingzhi continued: "According to my investigation. Yu Jue's death was certainly forgotten because of the confusion of the true yuan. But the reason for it is because of the thousand days of dispersion and drunken spring and autumn that he drank before. These two are one in a single round, which is a great tonic, and ordinary people can increase their true yuan by eating it. However, if you drink both at the same time, it will turn into a deadly poison, and people will lose all their veins, and there will be no possibility of cultivation. ”
"You mean, these two things were deliberately given by someone?" Zhao Yun saw a clue.
Li Tingzhi also replied loudly: "That's right. And your majesty, you also know that both things are incomparably precious, even in the treasury, and there are not many of them. But where did the Yellow Gate, which escorted Yu Jue in the first place, get such valuable things?"
"Are you saying that these two things were given by someone?" Zhao Yun's expression became solemn and asked, "And that person is the real murderer of Yu Jue?"
Li Tingzhi replied with his head in his head: "That's right. As for that person, I think Uncle Xie Fang and Prime Minister Xie, you should know. ”
"I, the murderer?" Uncle Xie Fang was stunned, but it was difficult to digest the sudden news.
"The one who ordered Yu Jue to enter Beijing was presided over by Prime Minister Xie. If Prime Minister Xie doesn't know, then how do we know?" Li Tingzhi sighed and complained again.
Uncle Xie Fang came to his senses at this time, and then his face turned pale, but he raised his head to look at Zhao Yun, and said in his mouth: "Your Majesty, I-"
"Germany. Can you tell me who gave these two things to the Yellow Gate?" looked gloomy, but Zhao Yun was furious.
He can accept that his ministers are incompetent, even if they are corrupt, and it is completely acceptable, but the only thing that is unacceptable is deception.
Because this made Zhao Yun feel like a fool, he couldn't control the beginning of the incident at all, and could only deal with it passively, this feeling of incompetence was not what the emperor should have.
