Chapter 449 King Xiang
Three quarters of an hour later, Lu Yan led Dongchang Fanzi and Jin Yiwei to search Yongxinbo Mansion.
It is said that Yongxinbo's mansion has three or more, many shabby, many women, and many concubines.
Lu Yan sat drinking tea in the main hall of Yongxin Bo's Mansion, next to a small red clay stove, the pine cones were crackling in the hearth, and bursts of rosin mixed with water vapor dispersed, and the clear breath of snow water brought people a burst of coolness .
If it weren't for the bright red embroidered unicorn robe on his body, he would be a sight to behold, like a nobleman sitting in his own courtyard admiring flowers and drinking tea, leisurely and calm.
Since they are here to search for evidence of collaborating with the enemy, the study is naturally the focus of the search.
Qu Chengyu brought a few Dongchang fans who could read and searched around, and saw that what was on the bookshelf was not the Four Books and Five Classics, but a collection of spring palaces from ancient to modern times. The Dongchang fans couldn't help laughing, and each I tacitly put a copy in my arms.
Bang!
Suddenly, a heavy voice came, and I don't know who it was, which touched a jade bowl mechanism in the bookcase, and the whole bookcase suddenly turned, revealing a passage.
A fan from Dongchang was about to go in, but Qu Chengyu stopped him by raising his hand, "Keep here, I'll inform the governor!"
Everyone's expression became awe-inspiring. Who would have thought that Bo Yongxin, who only devoted himself to giving birth to his son all day long, would have such a thing in his house.
Lu Yan came soon, he glanced in, and walked in first without saying a word.
Walking in the passage, no one knows where the end of the passage is. On both sides of the passage, there is whale oil in the oil lamp, which emits a pleasant fragrance. There are beds, tables, chairs and benches in the space, as well as some food and water that can be stored for a long time. They are not moldy and are still fresh.
It can be seen that the food and water here are replenished regularly.
A chest of drawers looked awkward. Lu Yan walked over, opened the drawer of the chest of drawers, and saw some letters with very old handwriting and paper inside. He opened it to read, and his eyes gradually turned red.
"Master!" Seeing Lu Yan's expression was wrong, Qu Chengyu couldn't help walking over.
Lu Yan's hands trembled slightly. He took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and forced back the heat in his eyes. Then he opened his eyes, and the corners of his eyes bloomed like flowers on the other side of the Wangchuan River. "Search, all Gather all the things that belong to me, and I will present it to the emperor!"
At night, in the East Nuan Pavilion in Linde Hall, Lu Yan knelt on the ground, and handed over a dozen letters with both hands.
The emperor was stunned for a moment, he reached out to take the letters, and flipped through them one by one, the more he read, the angrier he became, and finally, a mouthful of blood spewed out, all staining the letters.
Lu Yan hurriedly got up, took the letter and put it on the table, and was about to order someone to call the imperial physician, when the emperor stopped by raising his hand, "Princess Xuanduanxian, please enter the palace!"
Lu Yan's eyes flickered, and he responded, "Yes!"
Xie Zhiwei entered the palace overnight, and after giving the emperor a needle, the emperor fell into a deep sleep, and the dead air on his face dissipated a little.
Coming out of Linde Hall, Lu Yan walked beside Xie Zhiwei. In the dark night, his soft voice had a soothing effect, "Princess, shall I send you to Changqiu Hall to rest for a while?"
Xie Zhiwei was also extremely tired after using the needles. She nodded. Compared with the emperor's body last time, she was undoubtedly at the end of her strength.
The emperor was only in his early forties.
When he arrived at Qianqiu Hall, standing under the eaves, Xie Zhiwei looked at Lu Yan, Lu Yan signaled the people on the left and right to back down, he took a step closer to Xie Zhiwei, and asked in a low voice, "Princess, can you tell the emperor's condition? "
If it were the imperial doctors of the imperial hospital, there was almost no need for Lu Yan to ask, and those people would tell Lu Yan the situation in different ways.
The reason why Lu Yan asked is obviously not referring to the emperor's condition at this time, but asking about the future.
Xie Zhi smiled, and said in a low voice, "The empress's baby is a boy, but the sixth prince will inevitably be weak and sick due to the unhealthy mother, and the emperor..."
Xie Zhiwei didn't speak, just stretched out a hand, and shook it in front of Lu Yan.
Lu Yan already understood, and his expression inevitably changed. He nodded, "The princess is in the palace, don't worry!"
With Lu Yan around, Xie Zhiwei has nothing to worry about. It was not the first time for her to live in the palace, and she was no stranger to everything.
The emperor refused to let people know that he was sick. At the next day's court meeting, the emperor still participated, sitting on the high dragon chair, and some courtiers still saw his pale face.
It was rare for King Xiang to come to the court meeting. He stood near the ice basin with his sleeves covered, eyes closed, and he didn't know what he was thinking?
Even Lu Yan read out the letter paper he found from Yongxinbo's mansion, but it didn't arouse his interest.
Emperor Longmu looked at Yiwuhou and said angrily, "Hong Jizhong, do you know about this?"
Hong Jizhong knelt down with a thud, his head touched the bottom, and he knocked loudly, "The emperor has clearly observed that although I have committed the crime of knowing people without knowing people, I have absolutely no suspicion of collaborating with the enemy and treason!"
The whole court was in an uproar, and no one thought that Ren Fu, the commander of the Shaanxi capital recommended by Hong Jizhong to lead the military affairs in the western Xinjiang, had contacts with Xiliang fifteen years ago, and one of his side rooms was actually given to him by Xiliang people. woman.
Some timid civil servants broke out in cold sweat, "Please make a decision as soon as possible, the emperor thinks that the commander of Shaanxi will change people as soon as possible. When Ren Fu is here, Dayong is like raising a tiger at the door of his house. I wait for the safety of the emperor." Uneasy!"
The emperor was also very disturbed. Last night, he finally fell asleep and had a nightmare. He dreamed that Ren Fu led Xiliang people to attack and the palace was broken!
"Ai Qing and others think, who is competent to be the commander of the Shaanxi capital?" The emperor took a deep breath, trying to make his voice appear calmer.
"Your Majesty, I think this matter needs to be thoroughly investigated. Why did the letters between Ren Fu and the people of Xiliang end up in the hands of Bo Yongxin? Could it be Bo Yongxin who slandered important court officials?"
Amidst the sound of crusade by everyone, Han Zhen, Marquis of Huaiyuan, stood up and clasped his hands.
Everyone looked sideways, and Prince Xiang snorted coldly at Marquis Huaiyuan, "Who doesn't know that one of Ren Fu's daughters became the successor to Marquis Huaiyuan's younger brother, alas, they are all nepotistic, it's normal to defend them, you people , don’t be surprised.”
Huaiyuanhou's face was flushed red, and he glared angrily, "Prince Xiang, this is the court hall, not a teahouse or restaurant. If King Xiang has any opinion on this Marquis, please discuss the matter according to the facts. The matter of the back house has nothing to do with the court!"
"Who said it's irrelevant? The king's son is about to marry the Duanxian Princess of the Xie family. Now that the king sees Mr. Xie, he must be more polite. If there is something wrong with Mr. Xie, this king will naturally support him." It’s not the same as Huaiyuan Hou defending Ren Fu now. Hehe, I know, this world is not the world of the Han family. If Xiliang invades, you can all live here, maybe you can still work for the new dynasty. Officer. The king and the emperor will not survive anyway."
This is the words of condemnation, Huaiyuanhou knelt down with a puff, and begged for mercy, "Your Majesty, I have no such intentions! I think that Ren Fu is a great official in the frontier, and I can't be punished just because these few letters of collaborating with the enemy have not yet been identified. Removal chills the hearts of all commanders and envoys in the world."
The first update!
