Chapter 128: The Dispute between the Two Factions After the Autumn Fall

"Then tomorrow, above the lobby, what should Wei Chen say?" Sima Lingyun continued to ask. ()

"Aiqing can say this tomorrow in the morning court, just say that he caught the person who hijacked the military salary, but unfortunately the person who hijacked the military salary has committed suicide by hitting the wall. In any case, this matter can be regarded as having a result. Empress Mu admonished Sima Lingyun and said.

"Okay, Weichen already has a bottom in his heart, the mother went to bed early, and Weichen retired. Saying that, Sima Lingyun said goodbye to Queen Mu and retreated.

On the other hand, a knife covered the wound and stumbled all the way to the palace, in order not to be discovered, a knife first checked the surroundings, and then took advantage of the opportunity when no one was around, got up and jumped, jumping into the palace wall.

Li Ang did not rest because he was worried about the action of Yidao, but quietly waited for the news of Yidao.

"Knock knock!

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door from outside the door, and as soon as Li An heard it, he walked towards the door, and as soon as he opened the door, suddenly a stabbed body fell towards Li An.

"One knife, what's going on?" Li An saw that the knife was covered with blood, so he inquired at the knife.

"Lord Wang, we have fallen for Sima Lingyun's tricks, it turns out that they have already been ambushed, fortunately their subordinates ran fast, otherwise they would have died in Sima Lingyun's mansion. A knife covered the wound and said in a delicate tone.

"What? What's going on? Li An saw that the knife was like this, and heard Sima Lingyun's tricks, so he didn't feel a burst of curiosity, so he looked at the person in front of him.

"When the subordinates came to Sima Lingyun's house, I saw a person lying in a room that was very similar to Ye Bihuang, because it was night, and the lights in the house were dim, so there were no subordinates, so I mistakenly thought it was Ye Bihuang, but there were too many guards at that time, so I didn't act rashly, but waited for the opportunity, and when the night was dark, the guards outside Ye Bihuang's room were a little lax, so I took the opportunity to jump in. said that I knew, after entering, I found out that the so-called Ye Bihuang was pretending to be a person, and there was also a brigade of officials outside the house for a while, and his subordinates fought to the death to get a crippled life. Ang Lee helped Yidao to a chair in the room, and then listened to Yidao tell what happened.

"I didn't expect to be generalized by Sima Lingyun, a small character, since this is the case, although they are clever and deviseful, but after all, they have nothing to say, what do I say about Sima Lingyun?" said Li An stroked his beard, and then said to a knife.

"Ahem, ahem, ahem. Ahem. Ahem, cough, cough!" Yidao was injured by an arrow and lost too much blood, so he coughed violently, and Li An only understood when he heard Yidao's cough. It turned out that he had just ignored the arrow wound of a knife because of Sima Lingyun's matter.

"Someone!" Li Ang shouted to the family outside the door, and the family came to inquire about it.

"Hold on to a knife and heal first. Li An said to the family before he came, and then said goodbye to the prince with a knife and walked towards the door.

After the knife left, Li An thought about Sima Lingyun, and then said to himself: "Sima Lingyun, how can the day make you irreversible." ”

In the early morning of the second day, in the main hall, hundreds of officials made a pilgrimage.

"Something to do! Nothing to retreat from!" above the main hall, the eunuch beside the emperor said to His Royal Highness's hundred officials.

"Minister, there is something to do!" Saying that, Li An walked out of the ranks of the hundred officials, came to the middle of the main hall, and said to the little emperor and the wooden queen above the main hall.

"Prince Li, what are you doing?" Queen Mu didn't feel surprised for a while when she saw Li An take the lead in speaking, and then calmed down and asked His Royal Highness Prince Li.

"Your Majesty, the Queen's Mother, a month ago, the Emperor sent Lord Sima to investigate the case of the robbery of military salaries, and the deadline was one month to solve the case, but now it is exactly a month, I don't know how Lord Sima's investigation is?" Li An first pretended to be for the country and the people, and then asked Sima Lingyun.

"Sima Aiqing, what happened to the matter that this palace ordered you to investigate?" But Li An's question was reasonable, so Queen Mu had no choice but to let Sima Lingyun come out of the queue and ask Sima Lingyun.

The queen's move completely overwhelmed Sima Lingyun, because whether to say it or not, there is only one result, that is, death, because, if it is said that the murderer found out is Li An, then Li An will definitely say that Sima Lingyun slandered Zhongliang, and Queen Mu will also stand on her side, at that time it is likely to cause chaos in the court, if you say that you have not found it, then it will prove that you have not completed the queen's decree, and you will also disobey the military order and push out the noon gate.

But at this time, Sima Lingyun was still well aware of the righteousness, and he couldn't tell the truth he had found out, so he fixed his mind and replied to the queen in the main hall.

"Niangniang, the minister has your high expectations, although it has been more than a month, but the person who robbed the military salary has not been found. I also asked the mother to punish the crime. The queen mother on Sima Lingyun's hall said.

At this time, the intention of the wood queen Sima Lingyun turned out that he wanted to sacrifice himself in exchange for a temporary peace in the imperial court.

So Queen Mu closed her eyes slightly, and she was reluctant for a while, but for the sake of Jiangshan Sheji, he had no choice, and then said to His Royal Highness Sima Lingyunyan: "In this case, come here, pull out the noon gate and behead." As she spoke, Queen Mu gently waved her sleeves towards the main hall.

"Queen Mother, no! Lord Sima has worked hard for the court for twenty years, even if there is no merit, there is hard work, so please also ask the Queen Mother to open the door outside the law and spare Lord Sima's life!"

"The queen mother, you can't spare it! The prince is guilty of the same crime as the common people, not to mention that he is a scholar. If this person doesn't fight, it will be difficult to suppress the dynasty and convince the people!" Li An also retorted when he saw Zhang Hong's words.

For a while, there was a lot of discussion in the court, and the 'royalists' headed by Zhang Hong and the 'anti-imperialist' led by Li An launched a fierce dialogue for a while.

"Silence! Niangniang has something to say!" the queen gestured to the eunuch beside her.

"All Aiqing, for the foundation of my Celestial Empire, all the meritorious deeds! The first emperor has always ruled the world with 'benevolence and filial piety'! I am willing to emulate the former emperor! Remembering that Sima Lingyun once made a lot of meritorious contributions for the foundation of the imperial court, I will put him in prison for the time being, and wait until the autumn to ask for beheading!" Empress Mu said.
