Volume IX Chapter 52 Third-Party Perspective

Qin State, Qin Palace, small courtyard without word monument.

Things have come to this point beyond everyone's expectations. What happened before seems to be reasonable speculation, but under Zero Yu's explanation in a few words, all inferences are untenable.

Because of Zero Yu's explanation, there are not only living human evidence, but also many physical evidence that cannot be ecstatic. From the Yongcheng Soldier Fu, to the deputy capture Yi'an, and then to the entire Xianyang School Palace. One person can lie, and the entire academy will lie with them, it is simply impossible.

The person who lied, if he can't find it, this black cauldron can only be carried by Mrs. Huayang. Everyone knows that Mrs. Huayang didn't lie, but she can't explain it, even if there are 10,000 mouths to help her speak, in front of the facts, the royal family will not believe it. After all, those children were sent by Mrs. Huayang, but the people in the school palace didn't know that at this time, Li Ji didn't have any thoughts of respecting the old and loving the young, at least she represented the interests of the school palace.

And at this time, Wang Heng stood up, he had to stand up and speak. The people present, the battle of Xianyang School Palace, only he did not participate. Whether it is Mrs. Huayang, Ying Zheng, Liji, Gong Ming, Yi An and others, they are all participants in the matter.

Wang Heng said: "King Qiyu, as well as several queen mothers, I am the deputy arrest Wang Heng, I think this matter is very involved, and the people who participated in it back then are all in it, and they can't see the truth clearly." And I'm different, I'm the lord of Guigu and the son-in-law of the Mi family, so there should be no obstacle to asking the people of the royal family. ”

Mrs. Huayang, Xia Ji and the others had never seen Wang Heng, so they looked at Yingzheng, and Yingzheng explained in a whisper. Mrs. Huayang's eyes lit up, and the marriage of Zhongnanshan was too much to his liking. The Mi clan lacks nothing, what is lacking is the peak powerhouse, and the Guigu has now become a family, at least it can give the Mi clan a new way out.

Ying Zheng said: "Wang Heng is Mi Xiao's husband, but the marriage given by this king, he is Mi's son-in-law. With this identity, no one dares to think that his identity is not enough. Now there is another deputy arrest position, and it is the best choice to investigate this matter. ”

"One thing I don't understand, why can't Gong Ming, Yi'an, Xingling and others participate in the investigation? Yesterday, the Queen Mother has issued an edict, during your investigation of the case, you don't need to be afraid of any impact, are you yourself affected? ”

Wang Heng said seriously: "Not only is the influence, the impact is too great, and I will analyze them one by one for you." ”

"First of all, the King of Qin and several queen mothers, you have taken an attitude of ignoring the battle of Xianyang Academy, so it is not clear who designed that road. The route to drive away the crazy Mo Wu'an will not be designed by the people in the palace, and the person who designed this road must be in the Xianyang School Palace. Only the people of the school palace can be familiar with the environment of the school palace, in the past so many years, once you start to check, it is estimated that the people of the school palace are afraid of being implicated, and they will definitely have a unified voice, and they will not be able to check at all. ”

"Brother Gong Ming is a participant, Beigong Qianxi died on that road, it is estimated that he will not be able to forget it in his life. We can investigate the case, but if we investigate it with emotion, it is inevitable that there will be omissions. Coupled with the feelings of the people of Beigong, Xingling, Chen Jiu, Mi Xiao and others can't be checked. It's not that I don't trust everyone, but I have too many feelings, which greatly hinders the investigation of the case. ”

"The deputy arrested Yi'an, deliberately revealed the news to King Qin, and directed all his eyes to Princess Ying Ai, and Princess Ying Ai happened to appear in the Xue Palace. Coupled with the relationship between Yi'an and Princess Ying Ai, this is clearly to tell the king the purpose of Princess Ying Ai's visit to the Xianyang School Palace. The princess is there to save people, not to hurt people, but not to save not only Mo Wu'an, but also the children of the royal family. Yi'an is the same as the Empress Dowager Huayang, no matter what you say, others will not believe it, then there is doubt about the prestige of the fast camp, so Yi'an cannot participate in the investigation. ”

"The plan I gave is the case of the Xue Palace, and I will take the lead in investigating it. Looking at the problem from the perspective of a third party, I don't believe what anyone says, I will only look at the evidence, the living must have confessions, the dead must have corpses, and the objects must have physical evidence, which can only be convincing when they are combined. ”

"The case of Xuegong is handed over to me, then Brother Gong Ming and others will do their best to investigate the death of Lin Sheng, the case of Zhong Dian, the death of the former king and many other cases. I can only assist in these cases, and it is inconvenient to get involved too deeply, because I am not familiar with the Qin Palace, and I am the son-in-law of the Qi family, so outsiders will definitely give Huayang Palace some tongue. Only in this way can we face fewer obstacles in the investigation of cases. ”

Gong Ming sighed: "The case of the Xue Gong will trouble Brother Wang Heng. You're right, Xiao Xi died on that road, if I was asked to check, with too many feelings, it would indeed make me make a wrong judgment. There will be a lot of speculation and analysis in the investigation of the fast camp, but Zero Yu is right, speculation and speculation, no matter how reasonable the speculation is, it is a guess with no result. What we want is ironclad evidence, and we must find out all the human and material evidence. ”

Wang Heng nodded and said, "That's right, even if the person involved dies, we have to find out the burial place and how the person died." All those involved must be questioned one by one, and nothing should be missed. ”

"I'm a veteran of scheming, and no matter how good the scheming is, it needs someone to execute it. My approach is simple, no matter who it is, as long as it is the person involved, it will be asked by me. One person can lie, but all people lie together, it's simply impossible. As long as everyone's confessions are compared and put in front of everyone, it will be clear who is lying. ”

"Let's not talk about how the children in Huayang Palace got out of the palace, we still started investigating it on the day of the crime. Before Mo Wu'an entered the Xue Palace, he was in the Zongren Mansion, and on this day, all the people of the royal family stopped in front of the Xue Palace. On this day, Empress Dowager Zhao Ji's Luan also arrived at the gate of Xianyang City. ”

"Empress Dowager Zhao Ji, Lord Nei Shi, please tell me, why did you come here on this day? I'm not suspicious of you, but I'm asking you what you were thinking, whether you came up with it yourself, or if someone gave you something to tell you. When I'm done asking you, I'm going to ask the others. Because of the deprivation of Mo Wu'an's identity, you can do it at any time, you don't need to rush to that day. And the old people of the royal family are here, have they ever greeted Ganquan Palace? ”

Everyone listened attentively, no one had ever thought about it, and no one had talked about it. But this problem is very big, Yingpi entered Xianyang City, did Zhao Ji know in advance? If Zhao Ji knew, then Mo Wu'an would not be able to arrest him, and if he was caught, the impact would be very bad in the royal family; If Zhao Ji didn't know, he went to the Zongren Mansion early, which made Mo Wu'an crazy, and Yingpi and the others were at the gate of the Xue Palace, and the children of the royal family were also in the Xue Palace......

People didn't dare to think about it anymore, and everyone listened to it with a breathless breath.

Nei Shiyan also knew that the problem was very serious, and said to his face: "If Brother Wang Heng doesn't say it, I will almost forget about it." On that day, I was also strange that the Queen Mother Luan drove to the gate of the city, but heard that the ancestors of Yingpi and other royal family members were blocking in front of the gate of the palace, and my wife did not tell me about this. If the ancestor of Yingpi was in Xianyang, with the relationship between his wife and the Ying royal family, how could she not tell her subordinates? ”

"My mission is twofold, one is to save Lord Yingfu, and the other is to deprive Mo Wu'an of his identity. Especially the second one, we are ready for battle, and the old ancestor of Yingpi and the others should not appear in Xianyang City. The Zongren Mansion was too close to the Xue Palace, and as long as there was a battle, it would easily spread over there. Declare in advance that there were Vientiane clouds and blood-stained brothers in Luanjia at that time, they were all the righteous sons of my wife, and my wife must not have known about the fact that the ancestor of Yingpi was in Xianyang City in advance, otherwise she would definitely tell her subordinates, so as not to cause extraneous branches. ”

Zhao Ji continued: "If you don't say it, the mourning family almost forgot, how could Grandpa Yingpi go to Xianyang on that day?" Fortunately, Xiao Shi did not enter the city in advance, otherwise, Ganquan Palace would be in big trouble. Who designed me? Deprived Mo Wu'an of his identity, I only told the little girl Lin Ye, could it be that someone betrayed me by my side? Someone must have betrayed me. ”

In Ganquan Palace, Zhao Ji shouted angrily: "Pass the mourning family's message, close the city gate, and all the people in Ganquan Palace will be grounded." Whoever dares to pass on the news to the outside world without permission will be killed immediately. ”

The whole city of Sweet Springs moved, and the guards all stood on the roads, watching all the movements around them.

Vientiane Yun, Ge Mudan, Mo Chou Nu and others all came to Zhao Ji's face, and even many of Zhao Ji's righteous sons and daughters came.

Zhao Ji said angrily: "Anu, there is a traitor in front of me, you help me find out." ”

A mysterious voice said, "Why don't you check me first?" ”

Zhao Ji said confidently: "If you want to harm the mourning family, you will be harmed in Zhao Country back then." The main reason why I believe you is mainly Zichu, you are Zichu's retainer. This secret, even the two queen mothers don't know, how can others know? ”

Anu said: "Back then, Lin Yemei and her wife had a secret discussion, and the next day Geerdan came to offer the plan of depriving Mo Wu'an of his royal status. ”

Zhao Ji shouted angrily: "Xiao Dan, why did you betray me? ”

Ge Mudan didn't know what was going on, and when he saw Zhao Ji so angry, he knelt down without thinking about it, and asked, "Mother, the child has never betrayed you, please don't listen to other people's demagoguery." ”

Zhao Ji said angrily: "You still recognize me as a mother, I am your mother, I raised you since I was a child, and trained you from a tribal leader to the leader of Yiqu, a general with an army of more than 100,000 troops." What am I doing bad to you? Why do you want to be so sad about your family? The people who harm my entire Ganquan Palace, what good is it for you? If I'm gone, do you think you'll be able to intimidate other tribes? ”

Ge Mudan sweated on his head, raised his head, showed a bitter gourd face, and said, "What did Mother say?" Even if I were to die, I wouldn't dare to harm my mother. My mother has the grace to raise her children, and she has more motherly affection, and for fear that I will be bullied, she once went to the tribes of Yiqu and killed all the tribal leaders who threatened the children, and since then they have been included in my tribe, making me a real king of Yiqu. ”

"This kindness and affection, the child will never dare to forget, how can he betray his mother? Ask your mother to see. ”

Ge Mudan kowtowed violently, saying that he could do anything wrong, but he couldn't lose Zhao Ji's trust in him. If Zhao Ji didn't believe him, Ge Mu Dan didn't dare to think about it.

Don't look at Yongcheng so stable, Ge Mudan's status is so high, these are all given by Zhao Ji. If someone betrays the interests of Ganquan Palace, as long as Zhao Ji says a word, it is estimated that Ying Hao, Meng Tian and others will have their heads on the ground. Even if the respected Great Elder of Yiqu arrives at Ganquan Palace, he will try his best to please Zhao Ji and make an obedient and obedient posture, not to mention others.

Looking at Ge Mudan's bleeding forehead, Zhao Ji said casually: "Anu, what do you think?" ”

This mysterious Anu is known to many people in Ganquan Palace, but they have never seen it, not even Mo Chou Nu. There is a saying in the people of Ganquan Palace in private, the strongest in Yongcheng is not Mo Chou Nu or the Imperial Prince, but Zhao Ji's shadow, Anu.

Even if the royal prince and Mo Chou Nu meet Zhao Ji in person, they have to make the posture of their subordinates. In the entire northern part of the Qin State, the only person who can sit on an equal footing with Zhao Ji and talk on an equal footing is Anu. As long as Anu said it, Zhao Ji would believe it, and this trust would remain unchanged for many years, but the people of Yongcheng had never seen Anu, and even men and women didn't know.

Especially at this time, the conversation between Ganquan Palace and Zhao Ji is also spoken in a low and indifferent tone, even if you hear it with your own ears, you can't tell whether Anu is a man or a woman, old or young.

The mysterious Anu said: "I can't see that Ge Mudan's feelings for his wife are real, and he has no reason to betray." My suggestion is to let Wang Heng investigate, it is difficult to distinguish right from wrong by the people involved in this whirlpool. ”

Zhao Ji closed his eyes and thought for a while, and said: "Keep communicating with the Qin Palace, and the people in the Ganquan Palace, including me, will be investigated by Gong Ming." ”

Anu added, "Even I am no exception. ”

Zhao Ji said movingly: "You don't have to participate." ”

Anu sighed for the first time and said, "I am a retainer, and if my master is in trouble, I can't stay out of it." It seems that the matter of the Xue Palace has nothing to do with us, but if we really find out that there is a problem with the Ganquan Palace, we can't explain it at all. No matter how prestigious the lady is in Yongcheng, as long as you don't rebel, then the power of Ganquan Palace can only be handed over. ”

"Zero Yu is the person we have chosen, if we can't explain clearly in this matter, and someone else comes to take over, we are not at ease, and Yongcheng will be in chaos. If we don't choose Zero Yu, the palace will definitely choose that girl, madam, how many righteous sons and daughters do you have enough for her to kill? We didn't dare let her come back. ”

Thinking of that person, Zhao Ji said sadly: "That's it, the children have died enough, and there are enough graves in the backyard of Ganquan Palace." The children are very filial to me, the white-haired people send the black-haired people, and the kind of torture and mourning family has to go through a few times before it can be regarded as a head. ”

"Don't worry, the transmission line is open."

Mo Chou Nu didn't know what was going on, the corners of her mouth moved, and many hidden places on the line from Yongcheng to Qin Palace appeared.

Zhao Cui, who was outside the forest, said a few words to Lin Ye, left quickly, and came to the small courtyard without words.

After respectfully saluting, Zhao Cui said: "The identities of the dead soldiers are not enough, and my mother has activated the top secret transmission line, waiting for Lord Gong Ming's inquiry. ”

Ying Zheng, Mrs. Huayang, Xia Ji and others were all thoughtful. Zhao Ji's posture shows an attitude, that is, this matter must be investigated to the end, and Ganquan Palace does not want to have any negative impact.

In the past many years, many people have not paid attention to it, and insiders have not thought that there is anything wrong in it. Today, looking at what has happened through the third-party perspective of Gong Ming, the battle of Xianyang School Palace hides too many unresolved conspiracies. The case of Xuegong will be more important than Lin Sheng's death, and the forces involved will make people's scalps tingle.

Only by finding an outsider and looking at the problem from other angles can we grasp certain clues.

Just when Wang Heng was about to show his skills, Ling Yu in the forest spoke out again, which caught Ying Zheng, Zhao Ji, Wang Heng and others off guard.
