His Majesty once married me

Ouyang made jokes, both true and false, but not all the officials just wanted to know the truth, and some obviously wanted to find fault with Ouyang's words, trying to use the flaws in his words to exonerate Qin Guogong.

But how could Ouyang give them a chance.

"You said this was framed by me? Hehe, how can I dig out such a big secret room under the warehouse of Duke Qin's mansion, and make everyone in their mansion unaware? Also, my lord, you Do you know how big, heavy, and difficult to carry the ballista? If you say I was framed, you should frame it and give me a try!"

Ouyang only grasped what he had seen and heard, did not go deep, did not expand, and did not express opinions on how to deal with Duke Qin's mansion. He insisted that he was going to arrest Yang Dejiang. There, he had no other way to catch this person.

Seeing that Ouyang could not ask any more questions, Huo Bingshen, Minister of the Ministry of War, couldn't bear to see some people's nonsense, so he simply turned the artillery fire back to Zhu Bian and Pan Wuchun, questioning why they appeared at Qin Guogong at the right time. government.

"I followed Jiu Qiansui to the past." Pan Wuchun replied frankly, "Your Majesty had a premonition that Jiu Qiansui would vent his anger on his niece, and he was afraid that he would lose control of his temper and turn a small matter into a big one, so he ordered me to lead people out of the palace. , keep an eye on his every move, and if necessary, take action to stop or protect him."

Pan Wuchun had already discussed the words with Qi Yunheng when he received the order. At this moment, [-]% of the truth is mixed with [-]% of the falsehood. Doubt—or rather, dare not doubt.

Seeing Pan Wuchun being so "bare", Zhu Bian rolled his eyes, and simply told the "truth".

"Of course I didn't know that Jiu Qiansui would break into Duke Qin's mansion. The reason why I appeared there has nothing to do with Jiu Qiansui." Zhu Bian said coldly, "During this time, I have been leading people to stare at Duke Qin's mansion. , because long before what happened today, I suspected that they had disobedience!"

"Don't talk nonsense!"

Huo Bingshen and others were taken aback, and Qi Yunheng who was sitting on top was also taken aback.

Although there is already more evidence for the offering of fake jade seals, which is enough to prove that Duke Qin Song Shi was an extremely important participant even if he was not the mastermind. The matter was leaked out, and Zhu Bian agreed without hesitation, and swore an oath of secrecy.

"Zhu Shangshu, do you have evidence for what you said?" Qi Yunheng asked the question first, also hinting at Zhu Bian not to involve things that shouldn't be said.

But Zhu Bian turned around, bowed to Qi Yunheng, and said seriously: "Your Majesty, there are only clues but no evidence for this matter, so I've never" and "dare not" to mention it to anyone. Leading people to sit and wait near Duke Qin's mansion is also to find evidence, to find out the matter, and then report it to His Majesty."

Zhu Bian deliberately emphasized the words "never" and "dare not", to reassure Qi Yunheng.

Qi Yunheng immediately raised his eyebrows, "Since you've already said it, let's make it clear and clear. No matter how vague your words are, it will make people suspect that you are playing tricks."

"Your Majesty, do you still remember that Taoist who showed off his magic skills at the gate of the palace at the beginning of the month, but was decapitated by Jiu Qiansui?" Zhu Bian straightened his body and raised his voice to ask, without waiting for Qi Yunheng to answer. Then he continued on his own, "After investigation by the minister, this person was escorted to Beijing by a soldier named Zhang Yao under the Duke of Qin. He was accompanied by more than a dozen soldiers, Taoist servants, and a few baskets of white pigeons." Before entering Beijing, these people passed through Suiyuan County, where a beggar stole a cage of pigeons. In order to recover the cage of pigeons, Zhang Yao persecuted the beggar to death and left traces .”

——This guy is also pursuing this matter?

Ouyang was quite surprised.

Many officials in the hall were even more surprised than Ouyang, and they all asked Zhu Bian to produce evidence, and stop talking nonsense and spitting blood.

"The file of the case of the beggar's murder has been transferred from Suiyuan County to the Ministry of Punishment. As long as you can get your Majesty's order, you can retrieve the file and check it at any time." Zhu Bian smiled proudly, "As for other evidence, I also have it, but in Before reporting to His Majesty, it is inconvenient to disclose to the adults, so as not to let someone tip off the news, so that Song can draw the bottom line and annihilate the evidence."

Huo Bingshen couldn't help feeling suspicious of Zhu Bian's generous and well-founded statement.

Although it is said that there is no causal or equitable relationship between sending a Taoist to Beijing and private possession of forbidden objects, if Qin Guogong Song Shi had no ghosts in his heart, why didn't he send the Taoist to the capital generously? , recommend to His Majesty the Emperor?Even if the Taoist is a Xibei product and has no real ability, after being found out, he can still use the sentence "I was also deceived by him" to fool him.Even if it is unavoidable to be impeached by the officials and punished by the emperor, it is better than being questioned by the officials and suspected by the emperor like now.

Huo Bingshen was distracted over there, but someone expressed what was on his mind in another way.

"Even if the Taoist was really sent to Beijing by Qin Guogong, what does it mean? Maybe the Taoist didn't intend to hide his relationship with Qin Guogong, but Jiu Qiansui's attack was too fast and too ruthless, which made him silent. Opportunity!"

—Are you stupid? !

——Going back to Beijing without an order is a felony in itself. Do you think that soldiers are not soldiers and can not abide by laws and regulations? !

Huo Bingshen turned his head and looked at the man, but it was Fengjing General Yang Weibo Zheng Kai who stayed behind in the capital.

Huo Bingshen's heart tightened, he put away the idea of ​​trying to save this person, kept his mouth shut, and made up his mind not to get involved in this matter again.

Zheng Kai is also the father of Qi Yunheng, the old minister of Duke Wei of the former Dynasty.It's just that when Duke Wei was still alive, he was just an ordinary corporal leader. It was only because of Duke Qin Song Shi's single-handed promotion that he had the opportunity to be promoted to a noble, made great achievements, and sat in his current position.

It is precisely because of such a relationship that Zheng Kai was able to defend the Qin State openly and confidently—under the premise of benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and trust, Zheng Kai’s behavior was an act of loyalty, which shows that he still does not forget his heart even though he is in a high position. Even the emperor could only grind his teeth secretly, and could not scold him explicitly.

However, getting rid of crimes also needs to pay attention to methods and methods, and pay attention to the choice of words and sentences.

Like Zheng Kai, trying to overturn another pending death penalty by admitting one death penalty, this... is this because the government of the State of Qin didn't fall quickly enough or thoroughly enough?

The more Huo Bingshen thought about it, the more suspicious he became, but he didn't point it out, and just calmly withdrew from the debate.

But other people, such as Zhu Bian, were not as merciful and forgiving as Huo Bingshen, and they immediately seized the loopholes in Zheng Kai's words and attacked him.

Not to be outdone, Zheng Kai once again argued with Zhu Bian.

Almost all the people present were human beings. When they heard Zheng Kai's words, almost every sentence was clung to Ouyang, the emperor's concubine Jiuqian, and immediately realized that he wanted to give this Jiuqian to him. Dragging into the water, and then shifting to planting and framing, and finally achieving the goal of exonerating Qin Guogong.

——It’s really not happy enough to die!

Hubu Shangshu Wanshan, who has always been based in the court as a straight minister, couldn't bear to listen to it.

Use your brains to find a plausible reason for the private possession of forbidden items, and then honestly accept the punishment, let His Majesty the emperor vent his anger, and the Duke of Qin may survive this ordeal.

Zheng Kai is lucky, he wants to grab the emperor's husband, and he doesn't even think about what will happen to the people who are enemies with this guy now!

So what if Qin Guogong is kind to His Majesty, can it be greater than the kindness of the emperor's husband presenting the jade seal and passing on the destiny?

What the emperor gave to His Majesty was the supreme will of God; what Qin Guogong gave to His Majesty can only be said to be human favors!

Heaven, earth, king, relatives and teachers, in terms of importance, God is the most serious and serious, and the emperor has to be behind, let alone a courtier who just fulfilled his due responsibilities?

After the incident of the true and false jade seals, whoever dares to say that His Majesty the Emperor ascended to the throne by himself, His Majesty the Emperor can smash his head with the jade seal to see if he dares to speak out!

Besides, do you really think that the imperial husband forcibly broke into the Duke of Qin's mansion because he made an arbitrary claim and insisted on going his own way?

His Majesty the Emperor would not be aware of things that Zhu Bian could find out?

Could it be that their emperor, His Majesty, has been acting as a benevolent monarch for several months, and some idiots really think he is kind and weak?

Wan Shan secretly slandered, while stealing a glance at the emperor sitting on it.

Qi Yunheng had no expression on his face, he couldn't see any joy or anger, and he didn't say a word about the disputes of the people below, but his tightly pursed lips were enough to make people understand that although it's hard to say joy and anger, but impatience is already certain.

Wan Shan also felt that it was meaningless to keep arguing like this, and was about to intervene and hand over the right to speak to the emperor, when a guard appeared at the gate of the main hall, bringing news that Mrs. Miao, the Duke of Qin's wife, was kneeling at the gate of the palace to plead guilty.

The hall was silent for a while, but Qi Yunheng pursed his lips, and cursed secretly in his heart: Damn, the effect of the medicine passed so quickly.

Although Qin Guogong's wife Miao's waist was sprained by Ou Jing's fall, the injury was not serious, at least far from being seriously injured and comatose, and because of the pain, it became more and more impossible to pass out.But this kind of experience was too embarrassing, Miao couldn't get up to fight Ou Jing again, and couldn't do the absurd act of crying and begging others to make decisions like a country woman, so she could only close her eyes and pretend to be in a coma.

Then, Qi Yunheng quietly helped her, and asked the visiting imperial physician to add soothing and sleep-soothing ingredients to her pain-relieving medicine, making her from a fake coma to a real coma, unable to cope with the next A series of accidents.

Qi Yunheng knew very well that although Qin Guogong in Song Dynasty had the problem of indecision, he was also regarded as a generation of outstanding figures in terms of literary and military strategy.

However, although the world likes to say compliments like "the tiger father has no dog sons", in fact, most of the children raised by the tiger father are dogs, such as Song Fan, the eldest son of Song Dynasty.

Compared with Song Shi, Song Fan was decisive in killing and attacking, but his mind was not so clear-headed. In the early years, he often did irrational things because of his passion.

The reason why Song Shi left the eldest son in the capital was only one aspect as a hostage, and another aspect was that Song Fan was afraid that Song Fan would cause trouble in the barracks again, not to mention disturbing the morale of the army, and even destroying his own foundation, so he sent him away. Stay in the capital, let the Miao family watch, the emperor suppresses it, even if something happens, nothing major will happen.

Song Shi thought very well, but he ignored that His Majesty the Emperor knew the people in the Duke of Qin's mansion very well. This time, he took advantage of Song Fan's temperament to intensify a small matter into a big one.It's just that His Majesty the Emperor didn't expect that Song Fan would dare to kill his imperial husband.If it weren't for his royal husband's great ability and unstoppable luck, the consequences of today's incident would be really unpredictable.

If Song Fan is allowed to succeed, even if he ransacks the whole family of Duke Qin, how can he offset the grief of losing his loved one? !

But things have developed to the point where it is now, and it is meaningless to regret those "if not" and "if".
