Rebirth as Princess Jin again

Wei Heng's face was calm, without any disturbance at all: "Your Majesty, the amount of this Lost Soul Grass cannot be controlled. If this Lost Soul Grass is used properly, only a small amount can double the speed of a horse. I guess it is Xuan'er's age. "Small, she originally wanted to use it on her own horse, but she didn't know the right amount and accidentally used too much. When she was blown away, the powder accidentally affected Miss Shen's horse."

Su Ying was impressed by his shamelessness, and a sarcastic smile appeared on her face: "What a careless act. Her carelessness could easily kill someone else."

Situ Lin watched the two tit-for-tat with cold eyes, obviously in the mood of watching a show, and did not stop them.

Wei Heng met Su Ying's mocking gaze: "The princess's words are wrong. Wei Xuan is not a child's character. Besides, isn't Miss Shen standing here well? She is not hurt at all."

Su Ying's face was stunned, and she turned to look at Wei Heng, with a meaningful smile on her lips. Wei Heng had a bad feeling in his heart, but before he could think about it, something even more unexpected happened. .

The imperial doctor outside the big tent had already thoroughly examined the dead horse. At this moment, he opened the curtain and respectfully saluted Situ Lin: "Your Majesty, I checked the horse's internal organs and found that the horse was already sick. The horse was fed with special medicine. From the outside, it looks fat and strong, with shiny coat. It is a first-rate horse."

"Little did they know that the inside was already worn out. Because of the competition today, the horse's energy was exhausted and it was empty inside that it suddenly fell to the ground and died."

After Wei Heng listened to the doctor's statement, he suddenly looked up at Su Ying, and saw a smile in Su Ying's eyes. The uneasiness in his heart quickly expanded, and his breathing became faster.

At this moment, his mind was blank. He tried his best to figure out the whole story, but he couldn't find a clue.

A flash of shock flashed in Situ Lin's eyes: "You said this horse has been sick for a long time?"

Situ Jin on the side took a step forward and said in a surprised tone: "Father, this horse is the war horse I brought back from southern Xinjiang. When the court bought horses back then, it was clear that they were all good horses. When this horse was sent there, When he was still young, General Xiao kept him in a stable and never went to the battlefield. When his son returned to the capital, he brought dozens of horses back and kept them in the hunting ground. Unexpectedly, they turned out to be sick horses. Fortunately, this horse If we don’t go to the battlefield, if we do go to the battlefield, the consequences will be really unpredictable.”

The anger on Situ Lin's face increased at a speed visible to the naked eye. Seeing this, Su Quan added to the anger: "Your Majesty, this matter is related to the stability of the border. Ma Chen remembered that this war was purchased from the Wei family. Wei Heng is just now Now, why not ask Mr. Wei to explain it himself."

Wei Heng couldn't help but trembled in his heart, his face instantly turned pale, and there was a hint of panic in his eyes: "Your Majesty, the horses I sent to Southern Xinjiang were all first-class horses. This horse is definitely not the best horse I have sent to Southern Xinjiang. The batch sent over.”

Situ Jin said coldly: "Master Wei, are you really so sure?"

Wei Heng was heartbroken and replied: "I don't know why His Highness the King of Jin brought this sick horse back from Southern Xinjiang, but he is so unjust and unyielding. Southern Xinjiang is thousands of miles away from here. If that horse is a sick horse, it will run for a long distance." , I was afraid that I would have died on the road.”

Situ Jin looked at Wei Heng with a stern look: "At that time, there was a batch of grain and grass sent with these horses. When I came back with these horses, I brought the grain and grass back with me. I think there must be something in that grain and grass. Drugs were added to keep the horse alive. Today, in order to win, Wei Xuan beat the horse like crazy, which caused the horse to exhaust its energy and die."

Wei Heng saw that Situ Lin's face was getting more and more ugly, and he knelt on the ground with a plop: "Your Majesty, there are thousands of horses sent to southern Xinjiang. Nothing happened to the others, but something happened to this horse. This must happen." Someone deliberately framed the Wei family."

"Report...the border crossing is six hundred miles away and urgent!"

Outside the tent, a hurried voice sounded, and everyone in the tent couldn't help but feel their hearts sinking when they heard the urgent report from the border.

The emperor moved up and waved to the guard at the entrance of the tent. Then the guard quickly stepped forward, knelt in the middle and presented the urgent report in his hand.

Seeing this, the father-in-law beside him hurriedly walked a few steps and handed the urgent report to Situ Lin.

Situ Lin opened the folder, his face became darker. He closed the folder with a snap and threw the folder out heavily. The folder hit Wei Heng directly on the forehead. Wei Heng did not dare to dodge and suffered the pain.

Situ Lin pointed at Wei Heng with trembling fingers and said, "Take a good look for yourself. Those thousands of horses in southern Xinjiang fell to the ground and died as soon as they were pulled out for a trial run. Do you dare to say that someone is framing you?"

Wei Heng glanced at the folder on the ground, and every word and sentence on it became a reminder for him at this moment.

He had clearly calculated this matter. It was clear that the secret of the horse would not be discovered at this time. What exactly was the mistake?

He had no time to think too much at the moment and was about to speak when he heard a familiar voice coming from outside the tent.

"Your Majesty Wei Sheng requests an audience!" Master Wei San's voice came from outside the tent. Situ Lin's eyes became more angry and he waved his hand towards the guards outside the tent.

Wei Sheng walked into the main hall and knelt on the ground with a calm expression: "Meet the Emperor!"

"The purchase of war horses is the sole responsibility of the veteran. It has nothing to do with Wei Heng. Please forgive the Wei family for the sake of the Wei family's generational loyalty."

Situ Jin glanced at Wei Sheng, and then said: "Father, when the Wei family purchased horses from Bei Liao, they must have left a document. It is clear who signed it. Please ask Father to let the Wei family hand over the relevant purchase certificates." .”

Wei Sheng looked calm: "Your Majesty, the Wei family encountered a thief a few days ago. The thief may be illiterate. The general's study was turned upside down, and the documents for purchasing horses were destroyed."

Situ Jin sneered and said, "That's really unfortunate. The thief didn't expect to do Master Wei a big favor!"

Wei Sheng pretended not to understand: "His Royal Highness the King of Jin does not need to be so sarcastic, and I don't want to."

Situ Jin took out a stack of documents from his arms and waved it towards Wei Sheng: "Master Wei has done everything possible, but I'm afraid he has forgotten one thing. Not only Master Wei has this purchase document, but Beiliao also has a copy. It's really incredible." Coincidentally, I sent someone to Bei Liao a few days ago, and spent a lot of money to get this document from a Bei Liao merchant. It clearly stated that these horses had been sick, and the purchase price was only 10% of ordinary war horses. By purchasing them at such a low price and then using them on the battlefield, are the Wei family preparing to overthrow the entire Xia Zhao Kingdom?"

There was finally a trace of panic in Wei Sheng's eyes. It was obvious that he had never thought that Situ Jin, who had been guarding the southern border, actually had his own power in Beiliao. The Wei family had been running the border for generations.

Situ Jin only returned to the capital for a few months. When did he have such a close relationship with Bei Liao?

While he was shocked, he still quibbled: "Your Majesty, please investigate clearly. This matter must have been framed by the Wei family by Bei Liao. I really didn't know that there was something wrong with the horse. The document must have been forged by people from Bei Liao with the purpose of alienating the Wei family." The relationship with the royal family has caused civil strife, so the emperor cannot be trusted!"
