Chapter 362: Murder with a knife

At the same time, the civil and military officials turned their eyes to the outside of the hall, only to see two forbidden soldiers escorting a handsome and elegant eunuch in his twenties, followed by the Dali Temple and the Inner Temple Supervisor. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Entering the hall, one of the two soldiers kicked Deng Zhengfang's leg, Deng Zhengfang fell to his knees with a thud, his face was deformed in pain, and he shouted: "The lord of the country save me." ”

Han Xizai said coldly: "Deng Zhengfang bullied the king, the crime deserves death, please order the lord of the country." Yan Xu nodded and said, "Lord Han is reasonable, please ask the lord of the country to order the execution of this eunuch." ”

Deng Zhengfang was so frightened that his face was pale, he sat on the ground and screamed: "The lord of the country saves his life, the slave is just acting on orders, how can he blame all the faults on the little one? ”

Tang Yue said: "The heavenly fire burned down the hall, showing that the monarch and the ministers were out of harmony, and there were villains inside, and now the lords and brothers are in harmony, except for such villains, natural disasters will disappear." ”

Chen Qiao and Xu Xuan, who were in the middle of the book, came out at the same time: "Deng Zhengfang falsely passed the holy decree, causing the lord's brothers to lose harmony, the princess died unjustly, and the crime cannot be punished. ”

Deng Zhengfang almost fainted in fright, lying on the ground and kowtowing desperately. Li Yu looked at himself as a personal eunuch sympathetically, he had the heart to save but didn't dare, his face was very embarrassed.

Yan Xu said coldly: "Last night, the sky burned down the palace, and the entire palace was full of casualties, and someone must be responsible for this. ”

Deng Zhengfang couldn't speak, trembling and lying on the ground, looking at Li Yu on the throne of the main hall with blank eyes, his eyes were full of begging.

Han Xizai said coldly: "Please give an order from the lord of the country." The hundred officials knelt down at the same time and said, "Please give an order from the lord of the country." Li Yu's psychology finally collapsed, and he waved his hand and said, "Just what Yiqing and the others said." ”

Yan Xu immediately said to the warrior on duty: "Pull it out, Ling Chi will be executed." Immediately, two forbidden soldiers rushed in and pulled away Deng Zhengfang, who was so frightened that he fainted.

All the ministers shouted that the lord of the country was wise, and Li Yu barely had a smile on his face, wiped the sweat on his head and said, "What else do you want to play?"

Everyone was silent, and solemnly bowed and said: "Please return to the palace to recuperate, and the rest of the affairs will be handled by the ministers." Li Yu glanced at him with satisfaction, and then glanced at Han Xizai meaningfully and said: "Han Aiqing went to the home of the dead and injured minister for the king to offer condolences, and all expenses were paid by the inner palace. ”

Han Xizai knelt down to receive the order, and Li Yu retreated to the palace. The ministers hugged Yan Xu out of the palace and returned to work in their respective yamen.

Seeing that the sky was bright, the people of Jinling immediately got the news, and the street was boiling again, and all the people gathered on the street, which frightened Jiangning Mansion to urgently send more people to maintain law and order, for fear that there would be any more chaos.

The forbidden army also sent additional patrols, and the people turned a blind eye to them, and gathered in groups to discuss. There is no impermeable wall in the world, and immediately someone knew that Tianhuo burned the palace last night and killed more than 100 people, and Li Congshan was named a prince, and the princess's funeral was upgraded, and the eunuch Deng Zhengfang, a close confidant of the lord of the country, was late.

The people of Jinling tried their best to use their imagination to conceive the connection, and various versions were released one after another, some said that the heavenly fire was put by the princess's ghost, some said that the brothers of the lord of the country did not come down with the heavens, and some people said that it was the chaos of the harem Yin and Yang disorder. In short, there is everything to say, and Jinling City is talking about this matter everywhere, but it dilutes the sadness of the princess's death.

The news was quickly fed back to the inn, and Xiao Han was stunned for a while when he learned about it. Originally, he just wanted to vent his inner anger, but who knew that Tianlei actually cooperated with him so much, and turned an incident into a natural disaster. The heavens cooperated so much, which made Xiao Han's heart extremely shocked, but more of it was the fear of the heavens.

Murong Qiuyu was also surprised, Bai Jiuxiao and Sima An were the same, the three of them looked at each other, and they didn't expect this to happen. Bai Jiuxiao said: "Heaven is virtuous, and he must know that Li Yatou died unjustly, which helped us get angry." Sima An shook his head and said: "Li Yu is perverse, the sky has eyes, and only then can the thunder strike happen." ”

The seven sons of Wudang were still immersed in the grief of losing Li Yueying, and did not care about these things, and the seven sons gathered together and listened to them listlessly.

Ge Qinglian, the leader of the hidden dragon team dressed as the second boy of the shop, came to restore his life, and Xiao Han rewarded him a few words, and was very satisfied with the fact that they mobilized their forces to secretly make Kong Ming lanterns this time. Xiao Han is not afraid of the government's investigation, everything is secretly transported from other places by the Jiaolong Gang and the Youyu Gang, even if the officers and soldiers turn Jinling City upside down, they can't find out the details.

Two or three hundred Kong Ming lanterns were prepared in one day, which shows that the secret organization of Qianlong is developing rapidly. After Kong Ming Lantern lifted into the air, it was the time for the Jiaolong Gang and the Swimming Fish Gang to perform, the two gangs dispatched a large number of people, caught a large number of birds from outside the city, secretly transported them to the city, and ambushed them around the palace.

Beforehand, Xiao Han repeatedly instructed that he would never show a trace of it, and that the two gang leaders would come forward in person to do the matter well, which made Xiao Han very satisfied. Because Jinling City strengthened the investigation, the leaders of the two gangs did not show up, and only Ge Qinglian came to restore his life.

Sent Ge Qinglian away, the Wudang faction discussed with everyone, Xiao Han really didn't want to stay in this sad place anymore, and decided to set off tomorrow, go back to the Wudang faction to have a look, and then go to Jiangling to block the Demon Sect.

Who knew that Li Congshan sent a housekeeper to inform him that he should not stay away in the near future, and the original military parade plan on the fifth day of November remained unchanged, and he would pretend to be a deputy general and go with King Zheng to watch the battle.

Xiao Han was inconvenient to refute Li Congshan's face, and he really wanted to see if his training method could be effective, so he sent Sima An and Bai Jiuxiao to take the seven sons of Wudang back to Wudang Mountain first, leaving only Murong Qiuyu with him.

Four days later, it was the fifth day of the first month, and news gradually came from the palace, saying that a skilled old Taoist said that there was a way to recall the princess's soul, and he was hired by Li Yu with a high salary, and he had been practicing in the princess's mansion for three days. Xiao Han's heart moved, logically speaking, if a person has died, it must be buried within seven days, and now that Li Yueying has been mortuary for more than seven days, Li Yu is actually looking for someone to help her summon her spirits, there must be ghosts in it.

Murong Qiuyu also thought about it, and after some discussion, the two decided to find King Zheng to take them into the palace to investigate. Who knew that before the two of them could act, they heard Ge Qinglian tell him that Tianshan sent Ye Tianhan to take Luo Beihong, Duan Xiliu, and Jiangdongge into the palace.

It was very lively now, Xiao Han wanted to go in to see how Ye Tianhan would be mad, and hurriedly sent Ge Qinglian to send a letter to King Zheng, asking him to enter the palace again to inquire about the news.

The two of them stayed restlessly at the inn until it was getting late, but no news came. Xiao Han was very disappointed, could it be that Ye Tianhan was indifferent when he saw the tragic death of his apprentice? or did he not dare to provoke Nan Tang and Li Yu? Or did Li Yu promise her something?

was suspicious, so he heard an old voice outside the inn door: "Which room is Xiao Han in?" Murong Qiuyu immediately jumped up and opened the door, and saw that it was Ye Tianhan standing in the courtyard with his three nephews outside.

Xiao Han followed out, and saw Ye Tianhan's expressionless face, his gray hair was messy on his head, he looked much older, and his body was slightly rickety. Luo Beihong and the three of them had blank eyes and gloomy expressions, and followed her silently.

Murong Qiuyu bowed down and clasped his fists and said, "Murong Qiuyu has seen his predecessors. Ye Tianhan raised his eyes and looked at her for a full minute, then suddenly shook his head, nodded again, and said softly: "Miss Murong doesn't need to be polite, please hurry up." Xiao Han followed and stepped forward to salute, and when he saw the long pale hair on Ye Tianhan's head, he couldn't help crying loudly anymore.

Ye Tianhan looked at him, Luo Beihong and the three of them looked at each other for a few moments, Duan Xiliu wanted to step forward, but was stopped by Luo Beihong's eyes.

Murong Qiuyu stood quietly beside Xiao Han and didn't speak, Ye Tianhan looked at her again, sighed, stretched out his thin and withered hand to help Xiao Han wipe his tears and said, "A manly man, how can you cry easily?

Xiao Han had already regarded her as a mother-in-law in his heart, and when he saw her reaching out to help him wipe his tears, he was inexplicably grateful, and at the same time, his heart was even more sore, he reached out and took a handkerchief handed over by Murong Qiuyu, wiped his face indiscriminately, and said, "Why are you here?"

Ye Tianhan looked at Murong Qiuyu again, he saw that she was very strange, followed by looking at himself, looked at her suspiciously, and said, "Senior looks at me like this, do you have something to say?" Ye Tianhan retracted his gaze, closed his eyes in pain, and opened his eyes for a long time and said, "Everything has its own destiny, and it cannot be forced." Now that Firefly is gone, no matter how sad it is, it is useless, in the eventful autumn of the rivers and lakes and martial arts, you still have to pay attention to the world, and you can't be entangled in the love of your children. ”

Xiao Han's eyes were red and he said, "Invite the seniors to the house for tea." Murong Qiuyu hurriedly stepped forward to help her back to the house, and Luo Beihong and the three followed.

As soon as he entered the door, Xiao Han motioned to Murong Qiuyu to close the door, and then his face suddenly became hideous, staring at Ye Tianhan and said: "There is a sentence below that dares to ask Ye seniors, please ask seniors Ye to answer truthfully." ”

Ye Tianhan's complexion changed slightly, and he casually swiped the lock of white hair that fell in front of his forehead, and said with gloomy eyes: "If you have anything to say, you can say it bluntly." ”
