After Jiang Wang left, Delu Hall was silent for a long time.
Only then did the emperor's voice sound: "Take out that mural and hang it in Donghua Pavilion. I will also look at it every day."
This is the only sentence...
Only this sentence.
Han Ling lowered his head and followed the order.
…
…
An eunuch kept a sufficient distance and led the way, stepping on the huge stone bricks without making a sound. They were accustomed to being cautious people and lived humbly in this great palace.
Jiang Wang walked behind slowly and with extraordinary grace.
Every step comes, da, da, da.
Walking through the majestic and luxurious palace, wearing a blue shirt and holding a sword, walking calmly, who can not say that he is a handsome young man?
However, when his footsteps echoed alone in the vast palace city, falling on his heart like drumbeats, Jiang Wang couldn't help but think -
In those days when the emperor...
Do you know the truth about the assassination of Concubine Lei?
He even walked all the way from Xuanwu Street to the palace.
This road has been calm, but how much turbulence is behind it? Is it the emperor who is beating certain people?
The position of crown prince is related to the foundation of the country.
I recall that in the thirty-eighth year of Yuanfeng, the former prince was imprisoned, the new prince was established, and the rebellion of Duke Loulan was settled.
From the emperor's perspective.
Concubine Lei set up a trap and stabbed herself, but it was not a pity to die.
Empress He followed the trend and killed someone with a borrowed knife. Although she was retaliating, she was still to blame. Afterwards, in order to cover up the truth and force Lin Kuang to be killed, it was an indelible crime. Why did the Osawada clan act as a minion of the empress and sell out the prince?
, the suspicion of intervening in the fight for the dragon is hard to conceal.
What would have been the result if the truth had been revealed back then?
First of all, Queen He must be deposed.
How much competition will there be if the rear position suddenly becomes vacant?
This kind of fight is beyond the control of anyone, including the emperor himself. Because there is only one post, and there are too many people watching that position.
You can't just find someone to sit on.
more importantly……
If Queen He is deposed, of course the prince will be deposed as well.
But within a few years, the crown prince was deposed and established one after another. Even if it were taken alone, it was a stupid act that could shake the country. What's more, it was during the period when the Loulan Gong rebellion had just subsided?
Going further, the Osawada family has always been the top famous family in the Qi State. It has a deep foundation in both military and political affairs, and it itself is also part of the strength of the Qi State. If it were held responsible at that time, it would be tantamount to committing suicide when the country was in turmoil.
Trim the muscles.
Qi State, which has just put down the Loulan Duke Rebellion, is it appropriate to depose the queen, depose the prince, and hold the Tian family accountable?
The deposed prince in Qingshi Palace has just been imprisoned for three years...
The aftermath is still lingering!
The emperor had too many reasons to be silent back then.
Actually think about it carefully.
Now that the prince has been in the East Palace for so many years, why is he still so cautious?
After being the crown prince for so many years, he has not yet been truly recognized by the government and the public as the future monarch of Da Qi.
After being the prince for so many years, he has successively established Huaying Palace, Yangxin Palace, and Changsheng Palace.
Is there any influence from that incident back then?
Think about it again.
Da Qi has nine soldiers, and the Osawada clan currently has no army under its control.
The Osawada family currently does not have a seat in the political affairs hall.
This is one of the top aristocratic families in Qi State. It has developed two islands overseas and is not inferior to any other aristocratic family. Its participation in the highest power of Qi State is also too weak...
Even when Gaochang Hou Tian Xili and Xuanhuai Bo Liu Yingqi had a fight at the ceremony not long ago, they were stripped off and whipped by the emperor...
If Xuan Huaibo whips, he will be whipped. What is the status of Marquis Gaochang?
If the emperor already knew the truth back then, he shelving the case for so many years could, to a certain extent, be regarded as a sign of dignity he had given Jiang Wuqi.
The case is not made public. Concubine Lei could still be the emperor's cherished concubine, and Jiang Wuqi could still be the emperor's most beloved son.
If the case is made public, it means that Concubine Lei is the guilty concubine and is dead, and Jiang Wuqi is the son of the guilty concubine.
Concubine Lei was daring, but Jiang Wuqi was not guilty after all...
But even though there are so many reasons to support it, even though there are so many things that can be analyzed.
Jiang Wang was still not sure whether Emperor Qi knew the truth back then.
These analyzes are all based on assumptions.
The emperor's heart is as unpredictable as the sea.
But at least one thing is clear -
Today, Jiang Wang is walking on thin ice, walking on an invisible line, with abyss on his left and right, giving everyone the greatest explanation he can give. And how could this so-called appropriate measure not be drawn by the emperor?
line?
The emperor said nothing, but the line was clearly there.
Jiang Wang was indeed impassioned and upright in Delu Palace, but did he dare to touch that line? Did he dare to mention the word queen?
He can only talk about the Feng Gu case, he can only talk about the Gongsun Yu case, and he can only talk about the Lin Kuang case.
Give it to Yang Jing.
Explain to Lin Youxie.
What he promised, he did.
As for actually making the entire truth of Concubine Lei's assassination known to the world...he can't do it.
It's not a matter of missing evidence.
On the premise that we have already gained insight into the truth, searching for the corresponding evidence will never be more difficult than Uriel's efforts over the past seventeen years.
Jiang Wang is confident that he can find more evidence.
But that's where it ends.
Everything you do today is already your current limit.
In other words, it is the limit allowed by the emperor.
In these tumultuous days, so many people died and so many things happened. So many people took part in it, causing ripples across the land...
Only the emperor sat in the deep palace, doing nothing and saying nothing. But everything was within the scope of the emperor's silent sight.
Never exceeded one point.
Seventeen years ago, I let it go lightly. Who will I beat seventeen years later, and to what extent... Tian Xin decides on his own.
Everyone can only struggle within the limits set by the emperor.
Whether it's Beiya, Jiang Wang, several palace masters, or even the current queen!
Just like this great and majestic palace city, although it is silent, it shows at all times that Emperor Qi is the only supreme power of this great empire.
So Jiang Wang said that if he wanted to serve in Beiya, he would be a Beiya captain who didn't know how to exercise discretion.
The emperor naturally refused.
He was not given the opportunity to be selfless, but given freedom.
…
…
The majestic palace city gradually left behind him. Under the complicated gazes of people, intentionally or unintentionally, Jiang Wang walked directly through the capital, walked back to Yaoguangfang, and returned to his mansion.
"Heh, are you going to the Chu Kingdom now? You enter the palace with great momentum, and then run away with your head in your arms as soon as you come back?"
Chong Xuan Sheng occupied his yard again, and laughed very dissatisfiedly: "Then if you don't run faster, what are you going to come back to clean up? What is there to clean up in your house? I brought all the valuables."
Jiang Wang stopped packing his luggage and turned around to glare at him: "Pang Zhongxuan, what you say is a bit too disturbing!"
Zhong Xuansheng stood there, holding the door almost full, and snorted: "Isn't it a stab in the lungs?"
"What does it have to do with lungs?"
Zhong Xuansheng sneered and said: "The lungs belong to gold among the five elements, so they are most suitable for your pain."
Jiang Wang:……
I just grabbed some commonly used tea leaves and other wound medicines and didn't bother to put them away anymore.
After all, Zhong Xuan Sheng was telling the truth.
After putting away the storage box, he turned around and walked to Zhongxuan Sheng, stretched out his hand and said, "Here's some money."
"The second owner of the dignified Desheng Chamber of Commerce is at home only a few days throughout the year!"
Zhong Xuansheng rolled his eyes, and while complaining, he finally touched the storage box: "If you don't listen to Jin Yu's good advice, learn from others and want the truth. If the Tian family tampers with you casually, our overseas business will not be able to continue, do you understand?"
?Yes, the emperor has supported you, but you have once again exhausted the emperor's patience with you. And have you ever thought about Changle Palace? Do you have to have trouble with the prince? You should use your brain to think about it occasionally, don't do it all
Used for practice..."
Jiang Wang coaxed continuously: "Okay, okay, brother Sheng, I have learned my lesson. Why don't we avoid disaster? The situation is urgent..."
Chong Xuan Sheng took out a bag of ten Yuan Stones, and after thinking about it, he put back a few more stones, and muttered: "When the dust here has settled, come back quickly. Don't get into trouble when you go to Chu Country, right?"
That’s their territory…”
"I understand, Brother Sheng, I have remembered all your good advice..." Jiang Wang spoke in a good voice, took the Yuan Stone, stuffed it into his storage box, and his whole body was filled with excitement.
He stood up high, took the initiative to cut off his words, and said crisply: "Let's go!"
Then he really didn't say goodbye to anyone and just walked away.
…
…
When Lin Youxie opened his eyes, what he saw was still dark.
Thinking it was probably night, I got up instinctively, opened the bed curtain, and then noticed that the door was open and light came from outside.
It turns out it's dawn.
It seemed like I had slept for a long time, so I was in a daze for a while, and then the memories before coma came back to me.
Jiang Wang......
Lin Youxie lowered his head and looked at his wrists. There were no shackles.
My physical condition is also very good, no injuries, and the confinement has disappeared.
And once again confirmed that I was indeed staying in my own home... and was safe.
Then he stood up suddenly and ran out the door!
From the location of the Lin family's old residence to Yaoguangfang, it is by no means a short distance.
Lin Youxie was walking on the busy street, and for some reason, he was still in a trance.
She had confirmed in her own way that all the people she had discovered who were monitoring her seemed to have disappeared.
She couldn't help but wonder, was it all a dream?
Could it be that she didn't reveal her plan to Jiang Wang? She didn't go for the autopsy that day, her father's knife wasn't picked up at the door, Grandpa Wu didn't die, and of course Jiang Wang didn't knock her out...
But it won't be a dream.
Lin Youxie felt his body and got real clues from it, confirming everything.
She quickened her pace.
Walking among the crowds, observing everyone's expressions and behaviors, inferring their moods and occupations, and guessing what they are going to do next... This was the little game she played most often in the past, but of course she had no intention of doing it today.
She was only thinking——
What is Jiang Wang going to do?
She stopped and even felt a little anxious... Jiang Mansion has arrived.
This was not the first time that Lin Youxie came to Jiang's house. Every time he came to the residence of this upstart Linzi man, it was more dignified than the last time. Of course, this was due to the wealthy and fat young man from the Chongxuan family.
"I want to see Jiang Wang." She said directly to the disciple.
Maybe his expression was a little ugly, which would give people a sense of oppression, so he went to spread the message timidly.
Lin Youxie thought like this and controlled his emotions.
Not long after, the housekeeper of Jiang Mansion came out.
This is just an ordinary person, not extraordinary, but he is neither humble nor overbearing when facing Lin Youxie: "Sir, what a coincidence, the master is out!"
"Going out?" Lin Youxie looked into his eyes to make sure he was not trying to evade, and then asked, "When will you come back?"
"I don't know about that." The steward said, "It's not my turn to make the decision when the lord sir comes back."
"Where did he go?"
"Are you kidding me? Will Sir Alex report to me where he is going?"
Jiang Wang has gone far away, probably in a hurry...
Lin Youxie quickly made a judgment in his heart, and then there was a feeling of relaxation or loss that lingered lightly in his heart, but he couldn't hold it.
At this moment, another male voice sounded next to him: "Isn't Jiang Wang here?"
A man in black attire came over.
His temperament is very cold and solemn, and fatigue is visible to the naked eye between his brows.
The butler of the Jiang Mansion replied: "Mr. Yang, my Lord is indeed not in the mansion now. Do you have anything to say?"
Yang Jing!
As soon as the name rang in Lin Youxie's mind, another voice came from far and near, hurriedly coming from behind.
"Deputy Ambassador Lin! I finally found you!"
Zheng Shangming’s voice…
When Lin Youxie turned around, his expression had become calm: "Master Zheng, what do you want from me?"
"No need." Yang Jing said a word to the housekeeper of Jiang Mansion, then turned and left.
Zheng Shangming hurriedly walked over. Before he could talk to Lin Youxie, he raised his hand again: "Hey, Mr. Yang, stay here!"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Yang Jing turned around coldly: "What's the matter?"
Zheng Shangming first gave Lin Youxie a look of relief, and then said to Yang Jing: "Beiya has arrested the murderer of Gongsun Yu!"
"What?" Lin Youxie opened his mouth subconsciously
Yang Jing also frowned with the word "Chuan".
Obviously they can't believe this.
But Zheng Shangming's expression was very serious: "You heard it right, the murderer of Gongsun Yu has pleaded guilty and will be punished. Mr. Yang, we all see how hard you have been working for your friends these days. Fortunately, the sky net is vast, and Gongsun Yu is not missing anything."
Yu is alive and can finally rest in peace. You can finally have a rest too."
Of course Yang Jing knew that since Zheng Shangming could speak to this extent, the one who would be punished must be the murderer who directly killed Gongsun Yu. There is no mistake about this.
As for the future... there is no future. There is only one murderer.
As for whether that person had an old grudge with Gongsun Yu, or whether he suddenly passed by Biwu County and was in a bad mood that night... it doesn't matter in short. Logical reasons can always be made up.
Yang Jing, who has been hitting a wall these days, certainly knows how difficult it is to be able to throw out the killer to make an explanation.
"Yang admires Beiya's efficiency in solving crimes." Yang Jing has always been a sober person. At most, he was briefly 'confused' because of Gongsun Yu's death.
He should be awake now.
So he cupped his hands, turned around and left.
"Master Yang, don't you plan to see the murderer with your own eyes?" Zheng Shangming asked behind him.
"No need." Yang Jing said without turning around: "Just send me a message after you are executed. There are many things at home, so I should go back!"
His steps were long and fast.
Not like a winner.
"That's fine!"
Zheng Shangming watched Yang Jing off, then turned back to look at Lin Youxie, with a sigh in his voice: "Deputy Ambassador Lin, I mainly came to see you today. When I went to your house, you were not at home either. Later I heard someone say
If you come this way, I will chase you..."
Lin Youxie just looked at him indifferently, waiting for his next words.
Zheng Shangming continued: "The emperor ordered a thorough investigation into the suicide case of Lord Lin Kuang. We urgently visited dozens of Qingpai elders, 19 of whom were eyewitnesses of the case. Finally, it was proved that Lord Lin Kuang was indeed not wrongly arrested.
Man, Tian Fen turned out to be the hidden son of Ping Ping Country. Master Lin Kuang did not commit suicide out of fear of blame, but for the honor of Qingpai, he took on all the infamy..."
Lin Youxie's eyes changed from surprise to sadness, and then he suddenly lost consciousness again.
The country of equality is such a big basket that you can put everything in it.
But even this opportunity to "install the basket" was not earned by herself...
"The emperor issued a decree saying, 'No one should be taken lightly'. Lord Lin Kuang was granted the title of Heavenly Robber, and Lord Uriel was granted the title of Diwangbo. His spiritual throne is enshrined in the Inspection Office of the capital, and all Qingpai arresters should be enshrined in it from generation to generation!"
"
From ancient times to the present, opening up territory and expanding territory has been the first-class merit, and most people who have won titles have done so.
Solving the case and ending the prison sentence are far out of reach.
Jiang Qingyang also received a knighthood for his military service, but it had nothing to do with his green card.
It has never been seen in ancient times that someone has won a title based on the merits of the Qing Pai.
Lin Kuang and Uriel, this is the first case.
This is certainly brilliant.
But Lin Youxie felt increasingly dazed, and there was something heavy in his eyes that made him want to fall.
Zheng Shangming's voice continued: "The emperor gave me a plaque in his own handwriting, saying 'Qingpai Shuangjiao'..."
Looking blankly at the word "ginger" on the door plaque of Jiang Mansion, she felt that the voice was already very far away.
