Half life, for Jue

When Jingyan is summoned into the palace, Bai Bi's heart beats faster than Xiao Jingyan's own.Watching Xiao Jingyan leave, he knew that what Jingyan was about to face was a fierce battle, a fierce battle that had never happened before.

When Prince Jing entered the palace, he was still his usual appearance, with strict attire, calm demeanor, and the strength of a soldier in every move.Although Emperor Liang's expression in the palace was obviously different from usual, he only flashed a slight look of surprise, and then he still saluted as usual.

"I will see my father." Prince Jing kowtowed, and there was no response for a long time. Naturally, he couldn't get up, so he had to maintain the posture of prostration.There was a dead silence in the hall. At this time, Emperor Liang didn't speak, and no one dared to hum more.

The stiff atmosphere continued, which was even more uncomfortable than the violent yelling.Xia Jiang pursed his lips, and stood with his eyes and nose carefully. Yu Wang was not as calm as him, but he managed to control his breathing rhythm, and peeked at his father's expression.

Emperor Liang's gaze was fixed on Prince Jing at this moment, although the person he was staring at did not see these two sharp gazes because of the kowtow.

The time of silence was too long, so long that King Yu couldn't help shaking his body.But Emperor Liang still didn't express anything, and Prince Jing remained as motionless as a stone sculpture, his two hands propped on the ground were flat, never trembling the slightest.

But this kind of stability and composure angered Emperor Liang in the end. He suddenly broke out, grabbed the teacup on the table and threw it at King Jing, cursing angrily: "You rebellious son! Have you no regrets yet? ?”

Prince Jing didn't dodge, the teacup flew towards his head, and smashed to pieces on the pillar behind him, showing that the force was not light.

"Father, please calm down. It's a minor matter to teach Jingyan a lesson, but a serious matter to hurt the dragon." King Yu hurriedly stepped forward to persuade him, and then revealed his brother's identity to King Jing, "Jingyan, why don't you plead guilty to Emperor Father?" .”

"I was ordered to come to see you, but the ceremony has not yet been completed. I don't know the cause of the crime, so I dare not ask for it." Prince Jing still prostrated himself, "Father, I know that my minister is stupid, so I ask Ming Xun to come down."

"Okay!" Emperor Liang raised his finger and pointed at him, "I will give you a chance to argue. Tell me, how do you explain the robbery of Xuanjing Division Weizheng today?"

Prince Jing straightened his upper body, glanced at Xia Jiang, and asked with a surprised expression, "Wei Zheng was robbed?"

"Your Highness doesn't want to say that you don't know?" Chief Xuan Jing was in a rare embarrassment, he interjected sullenly.

"Xuanjing Division is directly under the imperial court, and the minister did not lead the supervision. Why should the minister explain something to Xuanjing Division?"

Emperor Liang snorted, and said plainly: "Could it be that you sent someone to do this?"

King Jing's thick eyebrows twitched, and his face immediately changed, "Why did the emperor say that? Robbing a prisoner is a serious crime, and I dare not take it. Who is the first to accuse, I ask for a confrontation."

Of course Xia Jiang didn't expect Prince Jing to plead guilty easily. Hearing what he said, he immediately looked to Emperor Liang for instructions, and after getting permission, he stepped forward and said, "Your Highness is so clean, I admire you. But the facts are all there, and you can't lie to them. Your Highness, you have deployed a patrol battalion in front of the Xuanjing Division's gate for the past few days, is there such a thing?"

"I'm not just deploying troops around the Xuanjing Division, I have deployments at all important nodes in the capital to arrest the Taihang bandit. Your Majesty knows about this."

"Okay, what a great thief to catch?" Xia Jiang sneered, "Then may I ask Your Highness, after you have been busy these days, have you caught the big thief?"

"Speaking of this matter, I was just about to ask Xia Shouzun carefully." Prince Jing raised his chin, full of momentum, "I just got the report before entering the palace today, and I already found the whereabouts of the robber today, but I was suspended when I was chasing him." Jingsi's soldiers scattered across the sky, and I would like to ask Xia Shouzun to give me an explanation on this matter."

"Hahahahaha, the villain is really the first to sue..." Xia Jiang gritted his teeth slightly, "Does Your Highness think that this way of talking will confuse the saint?"

"Who made the complaint first, don't I need to say?" Prince Jing countered coldly, "Xia Shouzun really knows himself."

Xia Jiang's pupils shrank slightly, and a cold front flashed, and when he was about to speak again, Emperor Liang said impatiently because of their quarrel, "Okay, I ordered you to confront each other, not to quarrel." He said to King Jing: "You have to answer Xia Jiang's question truthfully. I should listen carefully."

King Jing knelt upright, even kneeling, he was imposing: "The soldiers of the Xuanjing Division and the patrol battalion did clash in the streets and alleys today because of the arrest of bandits, but no criminals were involved in it, and they never stepped on the ground. After stepping into Xuanjing Division, Erchen doesn't quite understand what Xia Shouzun means. Did he mean that people from my patrol battalion robbed his prisoner on the street?"

Xia Jiang stopped, hesitated for a moment and said: "Your Majesty, the conflict with the patrol battalion happened in the streets. At that time, the rioters had already broken out of the Si Ya, and the soldiers of the Xuanjing Si Fu went out to pursue the mansion, but they were stopped by the patrol battalion. Scatter..."

"Are you kidding me?" Prince Jing's face was as cold as iron, "Your Xuan Jing Division can break into any place you want? Your Royal Father knows the strength of Xuan Jing Division. Who can I have under my command, Father? It is also clear. Even if a group of thugs really attacked Xuan Jingsi today, how can we determine that those thugs belong to me?"

Prince Yu frowned, obviously Prince Jing's eloquence had exceeded his expectations.

"Is there another person in the capital who is willing to do such a thing, His Highness Prince Jing?" Fortunately, there is Xia Jiang.

Prince Jing turned his head to look at Xia Jiang carefully, then turned his head, and said mockingly: "It turns out that Xia Shouzun has no evidence and is just trying to punish his heart."

Emperor Liang's expression was subtle, and he didn't know what he was thinking, but it was obvious that his anger had not dissipated.But King Jing still defended: "In that case, I will do you a favor." He bowed: "Father, the emperor, and my son, please summon the Minister of the Ministry of War."

"What did you call him for?" Emperor Liang asked.

Xiao Jingyan replied: "Prince Jing's mansion and the patrol battalion's generals and soldiers all have records in the Ministry of War. Did they go out today without authorization, whether they were injured, and whether they had this force to break into the Xuanjing Division. All these need to be checked by the general manager." Can find some traces."

"Hmph." Xia Jiang snorted coldly, and said, "How could His Highness King Jing use the registered soldiers for such a thing? Now that you are the Prince of Seven Pearls, it is not difficult to cultivate some manpower secretly. The patrol battalion is just for It’s all for outside help. It’s difficult to find out the real identity of the people who actually broke into our Xuanjing Division.”

Emperor Liang had always trusted Xia Jiang, and what he said had obviously gained him some trust.He said, "Jingyan, I'm going to give you one more chance, tell me honestly, who are the people who robbed the rebels in the Xuanjing Division?"

"Father, do you also believe that this is the time when the minister secretly cultivated the manpower? If it is in other places, it's fine, but the place where the Xuanjing Division is, the father must be clearer than me. May I ask the father, how many people will the minister cultivate?" How can Xiao Jingyan have the ability to break through the siege of the Xuanjing Division and snatch the prisoners?" Xiao Jingyan finally had the right time to lead him where he wanted, and to make it more believable, he added: "Yuwang Brother Yu has been the Prince of Seven Beads for so many years, may I ask Brother Yu, can you cultivate a dark force that is neither in the government nor in the register, and cannot be traced at all, but is enough to break through the Xuanjing Division?"

King Yu didn't think that King Jing would turn the words on himself, and he didn't know if he was guilty of planning this matter, and said, "Now you are being interrogated, you don't have to involve me."

Emperor Liang felt that Prince Jing's words were very reasonable: "Hey, what Jingyan said makes sense. To break through the Xuanjing Division's dungeon, at least a few hundred people are needed. It is impossible for Prince Jing's mansion to support so many people. There's no trace of it."

Xia Jiang gave another salute, extremely respectful.He said: "The bandits who attacked our Xuanjing Division today are very fierce, there are only about 30 people."

King Jing pretended to be surprised and said, "There are more than 30 people? The Xuanjing Division has heavy guards guarded by experts like a cloud. Your dungeon is full of traps. Who doesn't know that there are more than 30 people who snatched the court traitors from the Xuanjing Division's dungeon?" Come out, Xia Shouzun, are you kidding me? With such a small staff, I’m afraid I can only look at the gate of Xuanjing Division’s dungeon.”

Xia Jiang was at a loss for words.And Emperor Liang was also puzzled: "Xia Qing, I really want to know how your dungeon was breached?"

Xia Jiang hesitated for a while before saying: "Return to Your Majesty, Wei Zheng was actually... taken away from Dali Temple..."

"Dali Temple?" Emperor Liang was a little dizzy, "Why did you bring Dali Temple into it again?"

Xia Jiang didn't mention Dali Temple in front of King Jing just now, just trying to set up a trick to induce King Jing to mention Dali Temple first without mentioning it himself. Coming here, it made him look a little embarrassed anyway. "Your Majesty, when the veteran came in, he had already reported to His Majesty that Xuanjing Division and Dali Temple had been attacked one after another. At that time, the criminal had been transferred to Dali Temple for detention, so he was actually taken away in Dali Temple."

Prince Jing's eyes were cold, and he said calmly: "Why is such an important prisoner not locked up in the Xuanjing Division? Instead, locked up in Dali Temple, where the guards are lax. Does Xia Shouzun want to be robbed or not? "

Xia Jiang's pupils shrank slightly, and a cold front flashed across. Just as he was about to speak again, someone outside the hall suddenly gasped and said, "Your Majesty, this servant is ordered by your mother to report something urgent..."

When Emperor Liang was upset, he said angrily: "If she has something urgent, just wait first!"

King Yu rolled his eyes and whispered in his ear: "Father, Your Majesty has always been prudent and has never disturbed His Majesty for no reason. Hearing that servant's flustered tone, maybe it is really urgent?"

"That's right," Xia Jiang also chimed in, "Hearing His Highness Prince Jing's tone, it won't be clear what to do here for a while, and the old minister also thinks it's better to hear what's urgent on the empress's side first."

Emperor Liang hummed and nodded, "Tell him to come in."

Gao Zhan announced in a sharp voice, and an eunuch in Tsing Yi curled up and knelt down on the ground: "The servant bows to His Majesty."

"What is it?"

"Your Majesty ordered the servants to report to Your Majesty. Concubine Jing was arrested on the spot for her disobedience in the Zhiluo Palace. Since she is His Majesty's favorite concubine, she dared not do anything wrong. Please, Your Majesty, go over and apologise in person."

Emperor Liang was taken aback. When he got up, he turned over all the cases in front of him. The tea utensils fell to the ground, and even the dragon robe was splashed with tea. The eunuchs and maids standing in the palace rushed to pick them up. He frantically wiped his clothes with a towel.

"Say it again," Emperor Liang ignored the chaos at all, and stared at the eunuch who reported the news with burning eyes, "Who is it, Concubine Jing?"

The eunuch shook into a ball and replied: "Yes...it's Jing, Concubine Jing..."

"It's wrong! It's wrong...you mother and son...it's really wrong!" Emperor Liang murmured a few words tremblingly, suddenly regained his composure, strode down, kicked King Jing to the ground, "I am What a treat to you, you are so wolf-hearted!" He was still angry, kicked two more feet, and kept cursing: "Wolf-hearted dog! Wolf-hearted dog!" After cursing and kicking, Prince Jing fell to the ground. On one side, the artifact is indifferent and calm.

"Your Majesty...do you want to drive?" Gao Zhan hurried over to help Emperor Liang's unsteady body, and asked in a low voice.

Emperor Liang's chest felt tight, and he was short of breath. He took a few deep breaths, and then he calmed down a little. He pointed at King Jing and cursed: "Get up! Kneel down! I will deal with your mother first, and then I will deal with it." you!"

If King Jing was still the unfavored prince, if Concubine Jing was still the concubine quietly hiding in a corner of the harem, maybe this majesty would not have such an atmosphere.But everything must have turned around.

Concubine Jing is an intelligent woman, no one knows how intelligent she is.Xia Jiang, King Yu and the Empress, none of them took Concubine Jing seriously, so they didn't know that the biggest turning point was coming.

Xia Jiang and Yu Wang exchanged glances quickly behind Emperor Liang, as if they were very satisfied with the successful timing.In order to avoid weakening the effect, both of them bowed and stood in a low-key manner, without saying a word, silently and proudly watching Emperor Liang walk away with anger.

After Emperor Liang disappeared, King Yu thought they had won.With the triumphant tone of a victor, he squatted down facing his knees but was already loose, neither angry nor sad, and said with a smile: "Jingyan, I haven't dealt with you for so many years, I didn't know you were so eloquent. Good. Brother, I want to see if Concubine Jing has such good eloquence as you, and can evade all the things she has done by herself."

Xiao Jingyan was already kneeling stiffly, without saying a word.
