Hua Ningmou quickly pulled the corner of her mother's clothes to signal her to stop talking. She remembered the first time her mother was slapped in the face by Yuchi Pingting for talking nonsense.
Yuchi Pingting has long been accustomed to other people's various verbal sarcasm, so she doesn't care about it at all. He just thinks that people like Hua Mu live in a pitiful way. But now she is more concerned about Nangong Feiran. Of course she
She knew that Nangong Feiran was framed, but she didn't know how many traps the Eleventh Prince had set up.
So after hearing Liu Qingfeng's words, he didn't pay too much attention and said casually: "Let's talk about whether we have any doubts after we get the evidence."
Liu Qingfeng was very impressed when he saw that this woman was not panicking and still had a calm expression on her face. If it were an ordinary woman, she would have cried so much that she looked like Hua Ningmu, but Yuchi Pingting, really
It's very extraordinary, Liu Qingfeng thought to himself, I heard that Yuchi Pingting played an important role in this great victory outside Yong'an Pass. It seems that this woman should not be underestimated. Nangong Feiran is really lucky to marry such a woman.
"Isn't the Crown Princess not nervous at all?" Liu Qingfeng asked.
"Nervous? Why am I nervous? I feel nervous about things I have done. Why should I be nervous about things I have never done?" Yuchi Pingting said disdainfully, but she was thinking in her heart, yes, why didn't she go to school?
I didn't feel nervous even in times of crisis, but when I was alone with Nangong Feiran last night, and under his influence this morning, I was so nervous. Could it be that that man was more terrifying than these dangers?
"Since the Crown Princess is so sure, then I think the Crown Prince must be a lucky person, and he will be fine," Liu Qingfeng said.
After Yuchi Pingting heard what Liu Qingfeng said, she said coldly: "Master Liu is wrong, the prince will be fine. It was certain at that time, not because Jiren has his own destiny, but because this is the fact, huh
, God? I don’t believe it. In this world, good people have always been short-lived and misfortunes have been left for thousands of years. If God were really just, how could there be such great injustice?”
When Liu Qingfeng heard this, she was extremely horrified. Yuchi Pingting, a strong woman who traveled from time to time, might have forgotten that in ancient times, the heaven and the earth were great, but she actually said that now. It was disrespectful to the gods at that time, but
Surprised, Liu Qingfeng still felt that what Yuchi Pingting said made sense. He was really becoming more and more fascinated by this woman.
At this moment, the few people who went to search the study came out and reported to Liu Qingfeng: "Master Liu, there are a few letters and a few excerpts. There is indeed a letter from Daliao, and the others are just ordinary things."
Do you want to take all the books back?"
"Yes, take those letters and a few excerpts back. Your Majesty will have to read them in person," Liu Qingfeng said.
As soon as this statement came out, everyone opened their mouths. Before, they only expressed suspicion, so they thought that nothing would happen if they went in to search. But now they actually said that there was a letter exchanged with Daliao. Everyone was shocked.
.
As if he couldn't bear the blow, Uncle Zhong held onto a tree next to him and murmured: "Impossible, how is this possible... This is absolutely impossible."
Hua Ningmou and Hua Mu also stood there blankly, not knowing what to do.
Only Song Jingyun knew that this thing would definitely happen, but in order not to arouse everyone's suspicion, he also showed a look of surprise.
Liu Qingfeng's eyes were complicated, but he was actually a little happy in his heart. In this way, Yuchi Pingting might become a widow again, and she might even lose her life, but he would save her, and he would definitely do it. This woman, he
want to.
Then he cupped his fists towards Yuchi Pingting and said, "Your Majesty, I hope you'll forgive me for disturbing you today. Let's take our leave."
Yuchi Pingting was full of aura and said politely: "Uncle Zhong, see you off." Then she and Qiao Niang turned around and walked away, and the two maids hurriedly stepped forward to follow.
Only Hua Ningmu and her daughter were left stunned.
Seeing Yuchi Pingting walking away, Song Jingyun stepped forward and whispered to Hua Mu: "Aunt, go back quickly and pack your things and prepare to run away. Don't bring too many sundries, just bring valuable things." Then he hurried away.
.
Song Jingyun was thinking in his mind that if the prince was really convicted, he would probably die, and then he would have to take Hua Ningmou with him. No matter what, he wanted to be with Hua Ningmou, so he went back to pack his things immediately.
Hua Ningmou heard what Song Jingyun said to Hua's mother and rushed to Song Jingyun, asking foolishly: "You mean the prince must die?"
"My good cousin, he is definitely going to die. Tongliao, this crime is bigger than murder. Not only is he going to die, but maybe we will all suffer. So, listen to my cousin, go back and pack your valuable things, and my cousin will take you away."
.”
If it were normal, Hua Ningmou would definitely reject him, and maybe even despise him, but now, her body has already been given to Song Jingyun, and as her mother said, if the prince really has a problem, she really has no one to rely on, so she has no one at the moment.
After talking, I just walked to my yard with my mother with a heavy heart. Do I really want to go with my cousin? Do I really abandon the prince? No, I did not abandon the prince. I love the prince, just because he will not die soon.
Yes, I am just helpless...
As for Yuchi Pingting, Qiao Niang seemed to have heard bad news and kept asking Yuchi Pingting what to do.
"Second sister-in-law, what do you think we should do? How could my cousin be in Tongliao? He must have been framed." Qiao Niang really looked into Yuchi Pingting's eyes, hoping that she would agree with her point of view.
Yuchi Pingting did not answer, but asked: "Qiao Niang, do you believe that your cousin is from Tongliao?"
"Of course I don't believe it."
"That's good, I don't believe it either, and your cousin is really not that kind of person, so we don't need to worry about things that are inherently false." Yuchi Pingting said.
"But they said they found letters between my cousin and the Liao army. How wonderful is this?" Qiao Niang remembered that she was about to cry.
"It's just a letter, don't worry too much." Yuchi Pingting said with relief: "As long as we firmly believe that your cousin is not from Tongliao, he will be fine." With that, he and Qiao Niang walked outside the courtyard.
"Second sister-in-law, I'm so upset all by myself. Can I stay with you first, and then I can leave after the matter with my cousin comes to an end?" Qiao Niang pouted and said to Yuchi Pingting. It looked very strange that way.
delicate and charming.
Yuchi Pingting smiled and agreed happily.
Liu Qingfeng and his party quickly returned to the palace, and all the ministers were waiting patiently. They were all interested in watching such an important event.
"Your Majesty, the letters and some documents from Nangong Feiran's study have been retrieved." Liu Qingfeng presented the retrieved items and said, "There is a letter in Liao calligraphy inside."
As soon as Liu Qingfeng said this, the court was in an uproar. Some expressed disbelief, while others were happy about his misfortune.
But the most surprising thing was Nangong Feiran himself. Why was there a letter from the Liao Kingdom in his study? He thought it must have been calculated by someone, but even if he denied it, no one would believe it.
Despite the turmoil in his heart, Nangong Feiran remained calm and did not panic at all. He wanted to wait for the emperor's intention before speaking. In other words, in this case, he had nothing to say at all.
On the other hand, the eleventh prince, after hearing Liu Qingfeng's words, became more and more happy and proud. Nangong Feiran. You are going to die. Because of your involvement, Prince Hui will be executed by his entire family, and the eighth prince may also be killed.
Because of this, he was implicated. Haha, sooner or later, the position of prince will belong to me, Nangong Quanhe. The eleventh prince suddenly felt a sense of elation. Thinking of the things he was teased by Yuchi Pingting, it doesn't matter now, because you are all
I want them all to die.
The eleventh prince looked at the dragon chair in the Jinluan Palace with a greedy look in his eyes. He thought to himself, sooner or later, I will be the one to sit on this dragon chair. Brother Eighth Emperor, you have no chance. Thinking, ten
The first prince seems to have seen the feeling of sitting on the dragon throne and ruling the world. He seems to have seen pictures of civil and military officials surrendering at his feet. This day will not be too far away. Nangong Feiran, don't blame me. If you want to blame me, you are the only one to blame.
Standing in the wrong team. He thought about looking towards Nangong Feiran, who had no expression on his face. But when his eyes passed by the eighth prince, he saw that the eighth prince's expression seemed to be very nervous. The hands hanging on his hips were clenched into fists.
Trembling constantly.
The eleventh prince snorted softly and withdrew his gaze, looking at his father who was leaning on the throne and reading the letters and the memorial that Nangong Feiran had not yet submitted.
At this time, all the civil and military officials in the court held their breath and looked at the emperor quietly on the dragon throne.
But the emperor seemed to have read it for a long time, and then he stretched out a long stretch, and then said: "I have read everything. This letter from Daliao, Zhang Dequan, come and read it to everyone." The emperor said.
A letter was handed to Zhang Dequan, the eunuch beside him.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Zhang Dequan replied, then cleared his throat and began to read: "Nangong Feiran, you dare to go against me, Daliao, kill my elite soldiers, and capture my good generals. You'd better pray for good luck.
When I, the Liao cavalry, set foot in Luoyang, the first thing I want to do is to kill all the people in Prince Hui's palace!" There was no letter writer and no time, only some unfamiliar Liao texts.
Now, the high minister was even more confused. This... what is this? A naked threatening letter.
Nangong Feiran felt that he was in a fog. This, what does this have to do with whether he has access to Liaoning or not? Moreover, does this person who wants to frame him only write such a frame-up letter? No matter who this person is, he is a brain.
People who got into the water.
The eleventh prince suddenly became confused. No, this is not the letter he gave to Song Jingyun. What's going on? Could it be that Song Jingyun is cheating on him? Isn't he afraid that he will expose the fact that he killed Prince Hui? Nangong Feiran can
They will definitely not go around him. But now, what is going on? The eleventh prince feels like he has been tricked. The feeling of being the master of the world disappeared in an instant. At this time, he looks like
He suddenly fell from the clouds to the bottom. The poor eleventh prince, if he keeps going like this, he will get a heart attack sooner or later.
"This... this..." Sheng An was also stunned for a moment. He was preparing an impassioned speech to say, but suddenly it was different from what he had rehearsed in advance. He was speechless.
"Why, is anyone surprised?" The emperor said coldly: "It's not over yet. There is another memorial that Nangong Feiran has not submitted. I asked him to write it. I asked him to write down the details of this battle.
Submit it to me, Zhang Dequan, please come and read this again." He threw the paper over again.
Zhang Dequan caught it carefully, then opened the fold, cleared his throat, and began to read again: "...On the tenth day of December, a memorial was sent to the court, hoping to get rescue from the court. On the night of the same day, the Yong'an Pass sentry detective came to Liaoning
The army is attacking..."
"Read what comes next..." the emperor said.
"It's the emperor...The Hou Liao army attacked in full force, and the five city gates were attacked at the same time..."
"Not here." The emperor said impatiently: "Later, the part where I ask for credit at the end."
"Yes, Your Majesty..." Zhang Dequan said with a trembling voice.
"In this battle of Yong'an Pass, Fei Ran only exerted his meager efforts. In terms of merit, it belongs to General Jin of Yong'an Pass and his four generals who defended the city. These five people ignored the safety of their families and fought hard against the enemy. They would rather sacrifice themselves than never
Surrendered to the enemy. Once again, it was the reinforcement general Sheng An. General Sheng arrived at Yong'an Pass on December 19. Although the carriage and horses were exhausted, he led the soldiers into the battlefield without even a moment's rest. Yong'an Pass could win the final victory.
It is because of General Sheng's great morale that I would like to ask the emperor to commend these generals who care about the safety of the border. If you are outstanding, you will have nothing to ask for..."
"Okay, let's stop here." The emperor interrupted Zhang Dequan.
"My dear friends, have you all heard this?" the emperor asked, his voice was very quiet, but very majestic.
"Father, General Nangong is such a person, he will definitely not be from Tongliao. I hope my father will understand clearly." Seeing that things were turning around, the Eighth Prince quickly stepped forward and clasped his fists.
"Sheng'an, did you hear that?" the emperor asked again, ignoring the eighth prince.
"General... General, I heard you." Sheng An's voice was very low. He knew that things were different from what they expected, and it was over now...
"Did you hear that? Did you hear what Nangong Feiran said about you?" The emperor was reluctant.
"Listen...I heard it." Sheng An felt that all the blood in his body froze.
"Then how did you frame Nangong Feiran? Ah? I also have a memorial here that you submitted to me. Zhang Dequan came to read it and also read the last part of asking for credit."
Zhang Dequan found out the information about Sheng'an and began to read: "... Zinan Gong Feiran just retreated into the city and never left the city to fight. Until our army arrived, not a single piece of the Liao invaders were killed, and Fang won a complete victory. However, Nangong
Fei Ri'an led the five generals of Yong'an Pass to guard the pass. There is no credit but hard work..."
"Okay, don't read it anymore..." The emperor looked at the trembling Sheng An who was standing in the palace and said: "Sheng An, I also have a memorial signed jointly by the five guards of Yong'an Pass here. Do you still need to read it? Do you still need to listen to it?
Did you hear how they praised Nangong Feiran?" the emperor said angrily.
Sheng An heard the anger in the emperor's words and quickly fell to his knees, too stunned to speak.
The eleventh prince kept yelling in his heart, "Sheng An, this idiot, I told him a long time ago not to take credit. I will do these things for him. I told him a long time ago that he would die because of his character, but he just did it."
If you don't listen, now I hope you won't get in trouble.
Although the eleven princes were a little uneasy about the turn of events, they all began to despise Sheng An when they saw his behavior.
"At Yong'an Pass, all the soldiers are singing that Nangong Feiran is our God of War, Sheng'an, why do you exclude him so much? Are you jealous of his achievements?" The emperor drank: "Or are you simply jealous of his talents, so
Do you want to kill him? As a general with such a narrow mind, how can you shoulder the heavy responsibility I have entrusted to you? Come, take off his tiger talisman. From today on, you will go to Jialin Pass to guard the pass.
"The emperor said bluntly.
Sheng'an was so frightened that he couldn't speak. He knelt down in the main hall and reluctantly handed over his tiger talisman. He had not really used this tiger talisman yet, but now he had to hand it over. He felt very unwilling to do so.
The eleventh prince closed his eyes angrily. For this tiger talisman, he had spent so much effort, from supporting Sheng'an to ascend to power, to getting Daliao Mo to intervene in the border annihilation of bandits, he carefully arranged everything, but now,
Everything was over, and all the plans he had worked so hard to devise were wiped out in an instant.
"Sheng'an, there is one more thing I want to ask you." The emperor said with a sullen face: "Nangong Feiran's note states that the day the army arrived at Yong'an Pass was December 19th, right?"
Sheng An was shocked. He remembered clearly that before the army set off, the Eleventh Prince told him to delay the journey as much as possible so that Nangong Feiran could not withstand the Liao army's offensive. After the Liao army broke through Yong'an Pass, he
After a few decent battles with the Liao army, the Liao army would pretend to be defeated and retreat. At that time, he would be rewarded in triumph and his position would be consolidated, so he was delayed on the road for several days. At that time, he was
This matter was still a matter of great controversy in the court, because the eighth prince wanted to send someone to let the grain and grass go on the way first, but the eleventh prince refused, saying that without a large army to escort the grain and grass, the grain and grass would be dangerous, but later the emperor allowed the eighth prince to let the grain and grass go first.
After hearing the emperor's question, Sheng An answered "yes" with a guilty conscience.
"Soldiers are valuable and quick. I remember that I asked you to rush to Yong'an Pass as soon as possible no matter what, but you have delayed it for so many days?" Emperor Long Yan was furious: "Sheng'an, what on earth did you pay attention to!"
Sheng An huddled on the ground and was speechless.
"Come here, take this Sheng'an to prison to delay the military situation."
"Your Majesty... have mercy on me... Eleventh Prince, save me..." Sheng An shouted, and it turned out that he was speaking without thinking.
When one of the supporters of the Eleventh Prince heard what Sheng An was saying, he shouted angrily: "Sheng An, you are doing this to yourself, no one can save you!"
The eleventh prince was so angry that his teeth were itching. If Sheng An hadn't slandered Nangong Feiran so much and asked for credit so much, I'm afraid he wouldn't have ended up like this. What a fool. The eleventh prince ignored Sheng An, didn't even look at him, and kept listening.
When he was dragged down, he thought that in order to prevent him from confessing to himself in the Penal Department Prison, it seemed that he had to take action to deal with this person first.
The emperor looked at the eleventh prince but said nothing, and asked: "Dear ladies, do you have anything else to say?"
There was silence in the hall.
Nangong Feiran was still confused. Obviously Sheng An was instructed by the Eleventh Prince, but why was the content in the letter from the Liao Army so strange? And looking at the expressions of Shengan and the Eleventh Prince, he knew that the letter must be
He was replaced by someone. If he was replaced by someone, why didn't he know what happened in his study? How did this person know and who was this person? Nangong Feiran inadvertently thought of Yuchi Pingting in his mind.
The shadow of this woman always saves me when I am in danger. Will she help me secretly this time?
"It is my great fortune to have a good general like Nangong Feiran in Daliang." The emperor said loudly: "But such a good general was threatened and persecuted by the Liao Kingdom. He was not greedy for merit or profit, but he was framed by our own people.
Is there no justice in Daliang? Do you all think that the emperor like me is easy to deceive?" The emperor slapped the memorial in his hand hard on the court case in front of him.
All civil and military officials immediately knelt down.
"Nangong Feiran, come forward." The emperor said.
Nangong Feiran stepped forward and bowed.
"I will give you the golden armor. You must know that this can only be obtained by the most glorious general in our country. Your father dedicated his life to the battlefield, but he did not die. You, father and son, are of the same mind. Now, I will give you the golden armor.
, I believe that with you here, my territory in Daliang will not be threatened in the slightest."
"Thank you for your love, Your Majesty!" Nangong Feiran said, thinking that all the changes today were so fast that people had no time to sort out their thoughts.
The Eighth Prince and his party were overjoyed. This general in their camp was completely trusted by the Emperor. In the future, when the Eighth Prince ascends to the throne of Crown Prince, he will have to rely more on his help. And if the Eighth Prince succeeds to the throne, Nangong Feiran can do the same.
Conquer the outside and keep the inside at bay.
The mood of the eleventh prince party was just the opposite. They were all dejected. They knew that the eighth prince would gain the emperor's trust because of Nangong Feiran. However, a few of them were particularly angry, especially the eleventh prince. He knew
, this time, he lost, and he lost miserably.
As for those who were waiting to see the fight between the Eighth Prince Party and the Eleventh Prince Party, they also gained something. The news that the Eleventh Prince often bullied others outside had already reached the Emperor's ears, and the Emperor also reminded him,
It seems that this time, the emperor, who was already dissatisfied with the eleventh prince, will become even more alienated from him.
After going to court, Nangong Feiran and Nangong Feiqing returned home together.
"Feiran, this thing is very strange. Do you know what it is?" Nangong Feiqing asked.
Nangong Feiran shook his head helplessly and said, "But one thing is for sure, there is someone behind me secretly helping me."
"I think so too, but if this matter was carefully planned by the Eleventh Prince, how could such a big mistake happen." Nangong Feiqing was also very confused.
"Haha, I'm glad that this big mistake happened. If it hadn't been for this mistake, I'm afraid I would have been charged with secretly infiltrating the Liao Kingdom. You all would have been beheaded because of me. Haha, keep going.
It feels so good to patrol in front of the Palace of Hell." Nangong Feiran said with a smile.
Haha, the two brothers laughed and got on their horses and walked towards the palace.
Nangong Feiran knew that the struggle between the eighth prince and the eleventh prince was not over yet.
