Chapter 9 White Forty-Two

Hearing this, Gonggong Yu looked at Lan Ziyi, and he asked:

"When do you use him when you don't need him?"

Lan Ziyi smiled:

"When did Grandpa Yu also pay attention to Grandpa Long's affairs?"

Father-in-law Yu pretended to be angry and reprimanded Lan Ziyidao:

"Poor mouth! What does the old man do and still use you to teach? ”

Lan Ziyi apologized to Father-in-law Yu, he raised his head and looked at the little eunuch who led the way in front, Father-in-law Yu knew the meaning of Lan Ziyi's eyes, he said:

"Don't worry, I've picked all my own people, you can rest assured."

Lan Ziyi nodded, and then he said:

"Things haven't been discussed in the temple yet, who knows what the outcome of the discussion will be? I don't know how much turmoil can be stirred up by the matter of Bangwen last night, if you really want to use Wang Xiang, you have to wait for the discussion in the hall today before you can decide how to use it, you don't necessarily have to expose him today, and in my opinion, it is not wise to expose him today. ”

Father-in-law Yu was noncommittal to Lan Ziyi's words, he touched his chin and thought about it, and then said:

"Then you will go to the temple later, you have to think carefully."

Lan Ziyi arched his hand:

"Father-in-law, don't worry."

After that, the two didn't say anything, just buried their heads in the road, and after a while, they rushed to the Qinzheng Palace.

Today's Qinzheng Hall is no different from the last time Lan Ziyi came, except that there are more guards and people's expressions are more nervous. After Father-in-law Yu and Lan Ziyi ascended the steps of the palace, there were guards to guide Father-in-law Yu and Lan Ziyi in, but Father-in-law Yu was not in a hurry, he asked:

"We are not outsiders, so why are you like a great enemy?"

The Ouchi guard replied:

"If you go back to your father-in-law, it was arranged by your father-in-law."

Hearing this, Father-in-law Yu snorted coldly and said:

"Who is he guarding against? If you prevent thieves, the thieves are in the mountains, there are officials and soldiers and Taicheng guards, and you are not afraid of thieves breaking here; If I am released, I will only come alone, and he will not be guilty of setting up a sword and axe hand to arrange a Hongmen banquet! ”

As soon as Father-in-law Yu finished speaking, there was a loud laugh in the hall, and the sound of Gonggong Long had not arrived, only to listen to Gonggong Long's justice:

"Brother Yu, Brother Yu, when you were serving the emperor, I was still peeing and playing with mud, how dare I let you come to see the emperor."

Lan Ziyi and Yu Gonggong followed the prestige and saw Gong Long striding out of the hall with his hands in his hands, Lan Ziyi immediately returned the salute when he saw this, and Yu Gonggong snorted coldly:

"Just remember, I don't have a share of separation with the emperor."

Gonggong Long looked at Lan Ziyi after saying justice to Yugong, he was slightly stunned and said:

"Wei Hou, I've seen Bangwen, this kind of rude slander is very hateful, I thought that Yousi should be ordered to investigate this case thoroughly, but this matter has been annihilated, and now there are too few clues to follow, I'm afraid it will be difficult to find the culprit."

Lan Ziyi replied:

"Skynet is magnificent but not leaky, slandering the monarch's father is a great crime of deception, if the heavenly reason is there, no matter where the culprit is hidden, he will be brought to justice, and Lang Lang Qiankun must return the prince's innocence."

Gonggong Long couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he heard Lan Ziyi mention the prince, and he asked Lan Ziyi:

"What does Wei Hou think the prince has to do with this matter?"

Lan Ziyi said:

"The prince was slandered, what does it matter? It's just that there are petty people trying to frame the prince! The excuse for framing the Mid-Autumn Festival Prince patrols the streets. At that time, the riot in the capital was so similar to last night, the demons and thieves were in chaos that day, as if last night's life was ruined, I thought that Mo Ruo cultivated himself, and he should take this opportunity to let the prince reflect on it. ”

Gonggong Long nodded frequently after listening to Lan Ziyi's words, he touched his chin and said:

"It's a good slander to stop self-cultivation, and the emperor also feels that what the prince did in the Mid-Autumn Festival is very excessive, but there is no good way to deal with it, and Wei Hou's suggestion is good."

Lan Ziyi hurriedly thanked him when he heard this, and the father-in-law Yu on the side mocked:

"You guys are too good at blowing, why didn't I hear what Ziyi suggested? Rather than talking about these imaginary things, it is better to talk about the real ones. I asked you why you are so tightly guarded, and you haven't answered me. ”

When Father-in-law Long heard Father-in-law Yu's question, he hurriedly put on a smiling face, and he said:

"Isn't this last night outside the city caught the people in the palace to make a disturbance, I from yesterday to the emperor's hand, and the inner guards thoroughly investigated the various departments and bureaus in the palace, and after an interrogation, I learned that there were also demon thieves in the palace, and the person who died on the street last night was the leader of it. These guys secretly hid weapons in Beijing, and when the time came, they attacked Taicheng by water and plotted to kill the emperor. I have already received a confession here, and I will speak to them when the elders of the military aircraft department come. ”

Lan Ziyi was so shocked when he heard this, he and Father-in-law Yu looked at each other in unison, their eyes intersected, and the two changed their eyes, their eyes were full of surprise and suspicion, although the two knew that the surname Long would definitely find an excuse to clear themselves, but neither of them expected that Xiong Long's would be so ruthless, and he directly arrested so many people and detained the black pot to the demon thief, Lan Ziyi especially didn't believe it because he had Tao Yan's confession in front. Father-in-law Yu asked Father-in-law Long:

"You said you had recorded a confession, but where was the person who gave the confession?"

Long Gong Justice:

"People are in the cold palace, just waiting to be killed."

Father-in-law Yu asked again:

"How many are there?"

Long Gong Justice:

"There are nearly fifty people in all departments and bureaus combined."

Hearing this, Father-in-law Yu said angrily:

"There are fifty people in the palace who intend to harm the emperor, if this spreads, where will my face go? Could it be that tens of thousands of Taichengwei and the Internal Affairs Office are all traitors who eat inside and outside? ”

Father-in-law Long has kind words to comfort Yugong fairly:

"Brother Yu, don't be angry, you always guard the city guards every day to intimidate the emperor from the world, how could you think that there is such a bad thing in the palace that is dark under the lamp?! The blame for this matter lies with me, and it has nothing to do with my brother and my brother's Taichengwei, and I will come out and take responsibility when you ask about it. ”

Father-in-law Yu snorted coldly:

"What do you call my Taicheng guard? That's the emperor's Taicheng guard, the emperor is willing to let me be an eagle dog, that's the blessing I cultivated in my last life! ”

Although Father-in-law Yu snorted coldly, his tone was much more relaxed, he had this temper, he ate soft and not hard, as long as the surnamed Long was willing to follow his hair, and the contradiction between the two could be put down temporarily.

As soon as the father-in-law finished speaking, Lan Ziyi asked;

"Father-in-law Long, listen to the meaning of your words, how many pavilion elders haven't come yet?"

Long Gong Justice:

"They are outside the palace, and they still have a bunch of official business to deal with yesterday, so it is reasonable that they are late. Father-in-law Yu and Wei Hou, how many words do you have to talk about standing at the door? Let's go in and talk slowly. ”

Saying that, Gonggong Long invited Lan Ziyi and Gonggong Yu to the palace. After the three entered the palace, they went inside to kowtow to the emperor, and then they went out to sit and drink tea and rest, and soon there was the sound of the guards greeting outside the hall, and the three military ministers and Du Ji successively ascended the palace, and the ministers and ministers entered the inner room to kowtow to the emperor after the outer courtesy.

After three knocks and nine bows, Father-in-law Yu and Father-in-law Long boarded the tassel dragon couch, lined up at the head and end of the bed, Lan Ziyi stood in front of the couch to face the ministers, and the three ministers of military discipline looked at the seats respectively, Du Yi stood behind Zhang Mingyue and faced Lan Ziyi. After everyone was done in batches, Gonggong Long took the lead and said:

"The night of the cold clothes in the capital was treacherous, there were gunboats on the green river to attack the city, and the officials and people were killed and injured countless overnight, there are rumors that the Yin soldiers borrowed the way, but where in the world did the Yin soldiers use firearms? I've checked the matter, and there are people in the palace who believe in witchcraft, so there was a mess the night before yesterday. ”
