"Someone actually said that Xiao Baoyin colluded with Liang Guo? How is that possible? Queen Yu said angrily.

". Isn't it? Xiao Baoyin, the king of Qi, had a blood feud with Xiao Yan, the island of Liang. His eldest brother Xiao Baojuan was forced to death by Xiao Yan. Why is Your Majesty so confused? The maid cried.

"Your Majesty must be suspicious of His Royal Highness the King of Qi recruiting troops and horses." Empress Yu said.

". How do slaves and maids think it's a set? The maid was less than admonished.

"Really? This palace can't see death without saving it. Queen Yu said angrily.

". Xiao Baoyin and Zhang Yi are not great characters. Do the powerful factions of the imperial court need to suppress them like this? Fools can see that this conspiracy is aimed at you. The maid said.

"I can't. Hongu must save them. After all, Princess Nanyang is a good sister of the palace. Now, her colt is in prison. How could Hongu do this to her? Empress Yu said.

". You know that this is a conspiracy of noble concubines. The person who arrested the horse was Gao Zhao, the elder brother of the noble concubine. If it's a mother, you have a shot. The noble concubine will inevitably frame you. The maid cried.

She thought to herself: Niang Niang is too kind. She can't fight the noble concubine.

"How can you see death without saving it? Princess Nanyang is kind to the palace. Zhang Yi is also His Majesty's minister. Xiao Baoyin is also a humble gentleman. How do we do this to them? Queen Yu said angrily.

Just when the queen was still arguing with the maid, Xiao Baoyin, the king of Qi, had already been interrogated by Emperor Xuanwu of Wei Yuan Ke in the prison.

"Xiao Baoyin, I am so kind to you, why did you betray me?" Yuan Ke said angrily. He slapped the table, frowning.

"Your Majesty, the widow has not betrayed you, Your Majesty. You are a benevolent gentleman. Why would the widow betray you? Xiao Baoyin waved the chain and said angrily.

His hands were already in chains.

"If I hadn't betrayed me. How can I get the evidence of your guilt? Xuanwu Emperor Yuan Ke roared.

"Your Majesty, although Weichen and Liang Guo are wealthy businessmen, Sima Wanjin has an arms deal. However, there is nothing else going on. This is a misunderstanding. Xiao Baoyin explained.

"So, do you know that Sima Wanjin has taken refuge in Xiao Yan? He is now Xiao Yan's person. Are you being taken advantage of? Emperor Xuanwu Yuan Ke said angrily.

"Isn't Sima Wanjin an old man of the Qi Kingdom? He turned out to be Xiao Baojuan's person. Besides, the weapons he transports are all self-casting. Xiao Baoyin said.

"Really? His weapons are all from Liang Guo. And it was sold by the children of the Liang family. Have you been deceived by him? Xuanwu Emperor Yuan Ke said.

He thought to himself: I looked at Xiao Baoyin's appearance, he really didn't look like a rebel.

Could it be that he was framed by someone?

"How is that possible? I've seen Sima Wanjin's weapons, and they're all folk crafts. It is not the official craft of the Liang Kingdom. Xiao Baoyin explained.

"Really? That batch of weapons was modified by Sima Wanjin. He bought it from the arsenal of the Liang State. Moreover, I improved it by finding a technical expert. Sima Wanjin even sold weapons to the Rouran people. You're young, too. Without Xiao Yan's acquiescence, his weapons business would have been unsustainable. Sima Wanjin has long been in collusion with the clan of the Liang State. Xiao Yan can rebel against Xiao Baojuan, also because of Sima Wanjin's support. Sima Wanjin scattered all his family property and sponsored Xiao Yan to become the emperor. Xiao Yan allowed him to sell weapons. Xuanwu Emperor Yuan Ke analyzed.

"I see. I was cheated by Sima Wanjin. Xiao Baoyin said angrily.

"I also looked into the credentials. Not your handwriting. Basically, someone has imitated your handwriting. Emperor Xuanwu Yuan Ke said with a smile.

"Your Majesty, it seems that you know. So why were you so angry? Xiao Baoyin asked.

"I want to test you. And I can take the opportunity to see what the people who framed you will do. Xuanwu Emperor Yuan Ke said.

"Can Weichen go out?" Xiao Baoyin asked.

"No, I don't. You continue to stay here. I can also use you to fish for Liang Kingdom. Emperor Xuanwu Yuan Ke said with a smile.

Xiao Baoyin thought to himself: Isn't Your Majesty using me to fish?

At the same time, Xiao Yan of Liang also heard that the Wei people had sent Xiao Baoyin to prison.

He summoned generals such as Chen Qingzhi, Wang Mao, and Cao Jingzong.

"Now Xiao Baoyin has been imprisoned by the Emperor of Wei. Can we consider letting Wei send Xiao Baoyin back? Xiao Yan asked.

"Your Majesty, I don't see it that way. It may be a ploy of the Wei people. Because, I heard that the Emperor of Wei arrested Xiao Baoyin on the charge of recruiting troops and horses without permission. Chen Qingzhi said.

"Your Majesty, I also feel that there is a problem. The Emperor of Wei may have wanted to teach Xiao Baoyin a lesson. Not hoping to kill him. Wang Mao said.

"Really? Why don't I believe it? I felt that Wei was no longer ready to support Xiao Baoyin. We can communicate with Wei and let them reach a consensus with us. You can ask them to send Xiao Baoyin back. Xiao Yan said longingly.

"Your Majesty, you don't have to take it for granted. This may be a trick of the Wei people. The people of Wei still trust Xiao Baoyin very much. Xiao Baoyin is also the brother-in-law of the Emperor of Wei. Does the lord think that the Emperor of Wei will do such a desperate job? Even if the Emperor of Wei really believed that Xiao Baoyin was rebelling, the most he could do was to imprison him. deprived him of his official position and title. How could it be possible to let Xiao Baoyin go to Liang Guo? Chen Qingzhi said angrily.

"Don't give it a try. How do you know? Xiao Yan said.

Let's talk about the matter on the Wei side.

On the Wei side, Empress Yu went to the Taiqing Palace to ask for a meeting with Emperor Xuanwu Yuan Ke.

Yuan Ke was playing Go with Yuan Cheng when he suddenly saw Queen Yu running in.

"Queen, what's wrong with you today? Without my summons, I came to the Taiqing Palace. Is there something wrong with you? Yuan Ke asked.

"Your Majesty, the concubines are just for the sake of our Wei country." Empress Yu cried.

Emperor Xuanwu Yuan Ke pulled his face down with a brush, thinking: The queen must be feeling lonely in the harem. Do you want to get in politics?

"Politics? Queen, do you think you can get involved in politics? Emperor Xuanwu Yuan Ke said angrily.

"Your Majesty, the concubine is for you. Now you have sent Zhang Yi, the commander of the horses, and Xiao Baoyin, the king of Qi, to prison. In this way, don't the ministers feel cold? Queen Yu said angrily.

"Isn't it Princess Nanyang, and Princess Pengcheng have given you gifts? Otherwise, why would the queen work so hard? You can go back now. Whether Zhang Yi and Xiao Baoyin rebelled or not, Tingwei will make a decision. I have to say it. What do you think? Emperor Xuanwu Yuan Ke said angrily.

"Your Majesty, are you going to be a faint king who has been stinking for thousands of years? His Majesty could have been the Emperor of the Ages. Queen Yu said angrily.

"Queen. Do you like politics so much? Emperor Xuanwu said angrily.

As he spoke, Emperor Xuanwu Yuan Ke pulled out his sword......
