Flat-footed

Zhao Xun heard that the Imperial Forest Army he had sent had returned early, knowing that something might happen, so he rushed to the Hall of Peace, but he really guessed it right.Like everyone else, he didn't know the true identity of the Northern Zhou princess. When he heard the news, he was furious. Compared with Yan Xi's situation, he was more worried about how to explain to Northern Zhou, so he made his own decision and invited He Shu overnight. Yue and King Jing entered the palace.

This side stopped Lin Rongchen again, and said: "Your Majesty, the matter has come to an end, I'm afraid it's not appropriate for you to go at this time!"

Lin Rongchen said solemnly: "You let me watch him enter Beijing and be executed?"

As soon as these words came out, Zhao Xun was taken aback, "This... This matter was done by Liang Wei, Master Yan will not be asked to beheaded, right?"

"Why not? All civil and military officials in the court know that he belongs to Fu Zhuo! When something like this happens, everyone will suspect that he is an accomplice. Do you think I can favor him at this time?" Lin Rongchen punched his body. On the side pillar, he said angrily, "Why doesn't he believe me? Why does he have to make his own claim?"

Zhao Xun never refuted Lin Rongchen very much on weekdays, but today he made up his mind not to let him out of the palace, "The last general has already sent someone to invite Mr. He and the prince. Why don't the emperor wait for them to enter the palace and make a long-term plan? It is at this time, the more you can't mess yourself up."

"It sounds nice! If something happens to your daughter-in-law, can you not be in a hurry?"

daughter in law?Zhao Xun almost choked to death on his own saliva.Xindao Emperor, are you so unscrupulous now?I don't know how Lord Yan will react when he hears these two words.

Lin Rongchen yelled at him, and his heart was much calmer than before. He frowned and walked back and forth in the hall, unable to think of any way to get Yan Xi out safely.Time passed by every minute and every second, seeing that it was almost dawn, Lin Rongchen couldn't wait any longer, "I have to go to Mingzhou!"

"The emperor can't go!" Jing Wang's voice came from outside the hall.

Lin Rongchen turned his head, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, "Brother Emperor, He Qing, what countermeasures do you have?"

"There are no countermeasures, but..." He Shuyue met Lin Ronghan who hurried into the palace like him at the gate of the palace. The two thought about it on the way, and felt that this matter was very tricky, and Yan Xi didn't give it to herself at all. Leave a way out.He Shuyue learned of Yan Xi's identity from Lin Ronghan, of course, her reaction after knowing it was beyond words.So much so that until now, he felt that this world was too psychedelic. "Weichen doesn't think this is a good way."

"Let's listen to it." If he didn't want to know He Shuyue's plan, he would have half-spoken to him, which is a tantalizing behavior, and Lin Rongchen would have asked someone to drag him out and beat him up.

He Shuyue said: "Did the emperor forget that Mr. Yan has another identity? Anyway, Yun Chu can't execute the Ninth Prince of Yan Dan at will, right?"

This is indeed a good way, Lin Rongchen forgot about it when he was in a hurry.He didn't expect that one day Yan Xi's identity would be announced to the world in this way. "What do you mean by saying that this is not a good way?"

He Shuyue said: "Weichen and King Jing have calculated together on the way here. If Yan Xi's identity is revealed to the world, it may make things more complicated. Some people may think that Yan Xi deliberately sneaked into Yunchu, deliberately Provoking war between the two countries, Yandan actually has other ambitions. Originally, the matter of the two countries involved the Three Kingdoms, so it was naturally more complicated! Besides, Fu Zhuo would be downplayed in this matter, and the emperor's purpose might not be achieved. achieve."

Lin Rongchen said: "Yan Xi arrived in Gusu at the age of 14, who would have been an undercover agent for such a long time?"

"Maybe he didn't know his identity before, who can guarantee that he still doesn't know his identity when he enters Beijing for the scientific examination?" Lin Rongchen didn't want to admit it, but he also knew that King Jing was telling the truth. "I still have another way, but the emperor can think clearly, do you really want to give up this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Yan Xi?" Lin Rongchen looked at him quietly.After planning for such a long time, he was only one step away from success. Now, for one person, he just gave up this opportunity that would never come again. How would he choose?

"Without him, what's the point of wanting Jiangshan?" Lin Rongchen hardly hesitated for a second.

"If these words were put in the past, let alone others, even you yourself would never believe that one day you can say such things?" King Jing smiled, "Since this princess is dead, the emperor can just find another princess. Is it gone?"

Lin Rongchen thought for a moment, and finally stretched his eyebrows, "Brother Emperor, thank you!"

King Jing shook his head, "It's not that you can't figure it out, you're a fan of the authorities, and you're just too worried. It's just that in this way, the previous hard work may be in vain."

"There will always be a way!" If his calculation is correct, after a while, the Western Territory will have a memorial. "Zhao Xun, you should do it right away, and you must settle the matter properly before Yan Xi enters the capital!" Where did Lin Rongchen think, how could there be room for change in what Yan Xi decided to do?

So the next morning, before he entered the Mingde Hall, all the officials were already discussing Liang Wei's murder of the princess in the hall.When Lin Rongchen heard that this matter was known to everyone, he almost fainted from anger.However, he wasn't the only one who was angry, at least Fu Zhuo was with him!

Grand Master Fu just got a jade seal from the former dynasty yesterday, so happy in his heart, he always felt that he could climb high every minute with the jade seal in his pocket, and point out the country.Entering the palace this early in the morning, even walking a little more imposingly, seeing Du Jun waiting at the Chaoyang Gate, he just gave him a sideways glance as a greeting.But Du Jun is indeed very courteous, seeing him coming, he rushed up to meet him, "Grand Master, what's going on?"

"What's going on?" Fu Zhuoyi was confused when he was asked, and his heart was alert. Could it be that he knew about Yuxi?

"The Grand Master doesn't know?" Du Jun had an expression of being fed shit.

Fu Zhuo breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that he wasn't talking about Yuxi. "What should the old man know?"

Du Jun had a gloomy face just now, looking like the rain was about to come. After hearing what Fu Zhuo said, his face cleared up immediately, and he was overjoyed. He thought that the Grand Master was so calm, and this matter might be a trick, so he breathed a sigh of relief, " It scared me to death. The officer thought it was an accident."

Fu Zhuo really wanted to kick him, and said angrily: "If you don't make it clear, the old man will throw you into the moat to feed the fish!"

Du Jun laughed and said: "The lower official heard the rumors that the Northern Zhou princess was killed by Liang Wei. At first, he was quite frightened. Then he thought it must be a trap set by the Grand Master, right?"

Now Fu Zhuo seemed to be fed shit, "What did you just say? The princess was killed?"

"Yes... yes!" Seeing that Fu Zhuo was frightened, Du Jun suddenly felt that things might not be as simple as he thought.

"Is it Liang Wei's hand?"

Du Jun nodded, "...that's how it was spread."

"Who passed it on? When did it pass it on? Why didn't you tell the old man about such a big thing?" Fu Zhuo stomped his feet. He didn't expect Yan Xi to be so reckless when he defended left and right.It just confirms the saying that those who are barefoot are not afraid to wear shoes.How can someone who wants something compare to someone like Yan Xi who dares to risk anything?

Such a big event happened, and there was no news in advance, so it can be seen that the captain and the army who accompanied him had already rebelled.Fu Zhuo had a bad premonition in his heart, "Where's Liang Wei?"

"General Liang... I heard that he was killed by the Imperial Forest Army for resisting arrest." Du Jun finished speaking, looked at Fu Zhuo's face, and whispered, "I thought he hid it on purpose..."

Fu Zhuo almost vomited a mouthful of old blood, "Where are they now?"

"I heard that I have already arrived in Mingzhou, and I can return to the capital the day after tomorrow at the latest!"

Fu Zhuo never expected that Yan Xi would even dare to kill the married princess. Is he using his life to pull himself off?

While talking, the two had already entered Mingde Hall, and several ministers surrounded them, looking at Fu Zhuo with concern, "Grand Master, what should we do about this matter?"

Fu Zhuo stroked his beard, and decided to keep the same in response to all changes. He would first see what Lin Rongchen wanted to do, and then he would make countermeasures.

How could Lin Rongchen be in the mood to plot against Fu Zhuo now?He ordered Zhao Xun to do it secretly, but when he turned around, Yan Xi stabbed him out.

This matter instantly turned into a stinky egg, attracting countless buzzing flies.The discussion in the hall was unprecedentedly heated.Amid all the noise, Lin Rongchen heard two voices, how to explain to Bei Zhou and find out the mastermind behind it.

Everyone knew what the urgent task was, but no one spoke.Who knows if this matter is really related to Fu Zhuo?Who knew if they would offend Fu Zhuo by opening their mouths, and would be retaliated against by him on random charges when they turned around?

Fortunately, there are always one or two people who are not afraid of power and have taken it as their responsibility to live up to the people's society, such as Li Qiuyun, the imperial envoy. "Your Majesty, Liang Wei must have been entrusted by someone to kill the Northern Zhou princess. It is a matter of national concern. We must thoroughly investigate and bring the mastermind and accomplices to justice!"

Fu Zhuo glanced at him and said coldly, "In Master Li's opinion, how should we conduct a thorough investigation?"

"Naturally, it's the joint trial of the three divisions!" Li Qiuyun returned with a sharp look, and said meaningfully, "Everyone knows that Liang Wei is a member of the Grand Master. Now that he has committed such a crime of treason, the Grand Master should avoid suspicion. ! So as not to accidentally hurt the reputation of the Grand Master."

"You!" Fu Zhuo was angry, "Li Qiuyun, are you suspicious of the old man?"

Li Qiuyun was neither humble nor overbearing, "I dare not!"

Seeing that the two were at war, He Shuyue persuaded Li Qiuyun a few words, and said: "Your Majesty Li is right! Your Majesty, in my humble opinion, should send General Zhao to Mingzhou to pick up the wedding team and escort Yan My lord is back. I believe that after he returns to Beijing, everything will be revealed."

This kind of behavior of resigning to fate, letting nature take its course, and taking one step at a time is indeed the only thing they can do at present.

Your majesty, I have something to report!Everyone in the court knew that Du Shangshu was a disciple of the Grand Master, and if the matter was tried by the three divisions, Du Shangshu should also avoid it. "Li Qiuyun tried his best to anger Fu Zhuo today, "In my humble opinion, it is better to leave this matter to the left servant of the Ministry of punishment. "

Lin Rongchen didn't have the heart to listen to them fighting with guns and tongues here, so he waved his hands, "Just as Master Li said!"

Du Jun didn't expect that he would be shot while lying down.He didn't deal with Zuo Shilang at first, but now he was suddenly pushed aside like a rubber ball, and his subordinate stepped forward. Although it was only temporary, it also made him very upset, "Master Li, Mr. He and Yan Xi are still good friends, you Why don't Master He avoid it too?"

"Friends? Master Du may have misunderstood these two words?" Li Qiuyun retorted, "I only heard that Master Yan hides from Master He every day and doesn't want to see him. I don't know what kind of 'friend' this is? Where did it come from?"

Mr. He sniffed at the side, and nodded aggrievedly, "Mr. Yan really hates me very much."

"Okay! It's decided in advance! Regardless of whether He Qing and Yan Xi are friends or not, I believe that he will deal with it fairly! Zhao Xun, immediately dispatch troops and go to Mingzhou! Retire!"
