But Lao Xiang's quiet kneeling, and the sudden disappearance of so many people in the palace, made Lin Ye feel that there were too many people.
Every palace has subordinates, and they have to go to the bell hall to save people, and it's okay to kill a few. But as soon as there are more people, Zhong Dian kills too many people, and after dawn, the masters of the palaces find that there is no one available, how much impact will it have.
The key is that this number of people covers almost every corner of Xianyang Palace, and if you really kill all these people, it will definitely spread outside the palace. When the time comes, everyone will only think that the king is purging dissidents and doing the blood ritual that the new king should do when he ascends the throne.
The so-called once a son of heaven and a courtier, the drama of changing the dynasty is always indispensable to the embellishment of a lot of blood. But this time is not right, during the period of the nations' alliance, if there is chaos inside and outside the palace, how will the border soldiers fight?
The most important thing is that among those who have disappeared, there are many people from the Yi clan. They dare to go to the Zhong Palace, and it is normal to be killed, but if this butcher knife kills too much, everyone in the palace will be terrified, and the two clans will be in chaos.
Being woken up by Zhongli so late, Yingzheng was very unhappy, touched Tian Ling in his arms, and complained: "What time is this, there are still many things to discuss tomorrow, no matter how big things are, can't you say anything about it at dawn?" ā
Zhongli stood at the head of the bed and said coldly: "It's Xiao Zhong's inconsiderate thinking, Gongzi can't sleep tonight, there are too many people involved, and the people in the palace must be dealt with." I can't let the Queen Mother know about this matter, and I have sent someone to tell Weilan that the blockade of Huayang Palace tonight has been silenced. ā
Ying Zheng woke up, sat up, and asked, "How many people are there?" ā
"Hundreds."
Yingzheng got up and said to Tian Lingyan: "Ling'er continues to sleep peacefully, don't ask too much about things outside." ā
As a woman at the beginning, Tian Ling looked very well-behaved, nodded and said, "The king goes to deal with government affairs, you don't need to ask me." ā
Under Lin Ye's service, he quickly got dressed, came to the study, and asked at the first time, "Are there really so many people?" ā
Zhongli and Lin Ye nodded, and Lin Ye said, "Mother has already asked a few princesses to settle down with her, and there will be no accidents with Sister Mindai here." There is Weilan there in the Queen Mother, and this matter has been silenced to Huayang Palace, and no one will dare to say more tomorrow. ā
"The key problem is that there are too many people involved, and there are several very important people among them, all of whom are working in the Eunuch Bureau and the Women's Bureau. If too many people are killed, chaos will inevitably occur in the palace. ā
Zhongli pondered: "It's indeed a little more, but for the sake of the great cause of the son, these people must find out, and the key is the question of how much to kill." ā
Ying Zheng shook his head and said: "Only kill the main ones, abolish the rest of the martial arts, and lock up those who can be closed, the bells and drums of the bell hall must not be ringed tonight, and we can't participate." ā
Lin Ye said: "Lao Xiang has been kneeling outside the hall for an hour, does the eldest brother want to call him in?" He probably came to save some of them. ā
Ying Zheng said: "I've been kneeling for so long, let him come in." ā
After a while, Lao Xiang entered the study, and the blood on his forehead was not wiped off, and he knelt down directly in front of Yingzheng, begging: "Please save Maomao's life, I know where she went, please take a look at my king." ā
Handing out the farewell letter written by Mao Mao to Lao Xiang, Lin Yetuo took it, Ying Zheng picked up the cloth, read it quickly, and said distressedly: "This matter is big, I didn't expect even Mao Mao to be involved." Gu Linye told me that Maomao often goes in and out of the palace these days, what does she do outside the palace? The Queen Mother shouldn't know. ā
Lao Xiang was sweating all over her body, and said frankly: "My master doesn't know, and I don't dare to tell her." Until this time, I couldn't believe that Mao Mao would do that, and asked the king for forgiveness. ā
Without waiting for Yingzheng to speak, Zhong Li said angrily: "Mao Mao is the queen mother's henchman, even she is involved, you dare to come and ask for forgiveness?" There are only three cards in and out of Huayang Palace, and the one that Mao Mao stole must not know. ā
"Tossing in the palace, I will turn a blind eye, but Mao Mao actually went to find someone outside the palace, how can this crime of cholera court be easily forgiven."
"I haven't let the Queen Mother know about your affair with Mao Mao, let her punish you and others. Now that such a thing has happened, if the Queen Mother asks me in the future, how can I answer? ā
Yingzheng also has a headache, many things in Huayang Palace are carried out by Weilan, Lao Xiang, and Mao Mao, and even the power is greater than himself. Now even Maomao is involved, with her power, how many people can hide it from others.
Ying Zheng rubbed his forehead and said: "Whether to kill Mao Mao or not, it's not for us to make a decision, she is the queen mother's henchman, and she can only be handed over to the queen mother for disposal." Paper can't hold the fire, and the Queen Mother will find out sooner or later that the East Window incident happened, and we are really not good at talking. ā
Lao Xiang kowtowed anxiously, and said mournfully: "I can't tell the Queen Mother, I must not tell her." If the Queen Mother knows, she will find out about my affair with Mao Mao, and she will definitely kill us. ā
Lin Ye said: "Then what do you let us do?" Privately bringing assassins from outside the palace into the palace is already a great crime of treason, and it is even more troublesome to hide the queen mother. It's not good, the queen mother was angry, and transferred the city guards into the palace, and my eldest brother's position as the king is also dangerous. ā
"In such a situation, even I don't dare to speak for you, let alone Sister Zhongli."
Zhong Li said: "This case must not be opened, Mao Mao must die, and he must die in front of the Queen Mother in front of Huayang Palace in order to make others vigilant." A little palace maid, with so much power, didn't even dare to do this, but she did. ā
"Yezi, go check it out immediately, those palace guards are very familiar with you, ask how many people Mao Mao brought in."
Lin Yeyan said: "You don't need to check this, you can guess it." I also have a palace card, if you want to lead people into the palace, you can only carry three people at a time. If there are more than three people, they must be registered with the Eunuch Bureau, and Mao Mao should not dare to leave a record. ā
"There have been as many as five times, and there should be fifteen people who have been brought into the palace. Oh my God, there are so many people, no, the manpower of the bell hall must be increased. ā
Zhong Li said coldly: "No need, the Seven Swordsmaidens are in the Zhong Palace, and it will be useless to go to as many people as they want, unless they have someone in the late stage of Dacheng." Even if there were, the Seven Swordsmaidens and Zero Feather would be able to drag it until the moment I rushed there. ā
Ying Zheng also said angrily: "Mao Mao should be damned, how can you let me save it?" I still want to hide the Queen Mother, do I still want to do it as the King of Qin? Lao Xiang, you should be damned, you have been with Mao Mao for so long, why didn't you find out that she was a spy of the Chu State? ā
Lao Xiang hurriedly said: "Mao Mao is not a spy, I can guarantee this." When I met Mao Mao, it was when Wang Yingzhu was alive. I am the queen mother's person, Mao Mao is the maid next to the first king, her past is very innocent, and she does not match the spy at all. ā
"The reason for concealing it is mainly because the Queen Mother has a taboo. The Queen Mother has nothing to do in her life, and since the death of the first king, she has strictly disciplined everyone around her. No one around her dares to talk about love, this is a taboo for her old man, once she finds out, no matter what position she holds in the palace, she will be killed. ā
"I beg my king to forgive Mao Mao for this sin. As long as the king doesn't pursue it anymore and helps us hide it, Lao Xiang's life will be the king's from now on. ā
Zhongli said coldly, "What's the use of wanting your life? Do you think you can still bear the crime committed by Mao Mao this time? There are many people who follow Childe, and if his position is unstable, it will be a monstrous disaster. ā
Lao Xiang said firmly: "As long as Mao Mao can be kept alive, all the charges will be added to me, the palace card was stolen by me, and the person was put in by me, and I will commit suicide in front of Huayang Palace to apologize." As long as I can keep Maomao alive, I am willing to fight with my life and send her out of the palace. ā
After saying this, Lao Xiang kowtowed heavily, buried his head in silence, and waited for Yingzheng's decision. Lao Xiang knew that when he looked for anyone, he didn't come directly to Yingzheng.
Ying Zheng has long known about himself and Mao Mao, Zhong Dian also serves Ying Zheng, as long as he says a word, Zhong Li will not dare to disobey. Only Ying Zheng can help him keep this secret and not let Mrs. Huayang know.
Lin Ye didn't dare to speak, Zhongli wanted to say something, but Yingzheng waved his hand to stop it, and sighed: "The relationship between the palace maid and the eunuch is so deep, it's really moving." Save one person and die another, you are willing to do it, and you are not afraid of the good reputation of the eunuch leader that you have earned for many years. ā
"People are not plants and trees, who can be ruthless, Mao Mao went to the bell hall to save people, and it was my beloved Jiang Er who was saved. You are also of great use to me, both public and private, I will give you a face. ā
Zhongli interjected anxiously: "Childe, you also said just now, paper can't hold the fire, with the power of the Queen Mother in the palace, one day she will know about it." This is too unfavorable for Gongzi, Zhong Li, as a swordswoman of Great Qin, how can he harbor criminals? ā
Ying Zheng said: "Let's talk about it later." Tell to go down and let Zhong Dian stay alive. The rest of the people involved, the abolition of martial arts, the closure of closure, and the other few leaders must all be killed to set an example. ā
"Especially those who come in from outside the palace, they can't leave a living mouth, and when the Queen Mother knows about it in the future, she will only complain that I have hidden Lao Xiang and Mao Mao's private affairs."
"In order to block her old man's settlement after the autumn, she sent Maomao to her mother, Ye Zi and Lao Xiang immediately rushed to her mother and told me what I meant in private, and my mother knew what to do."
"Tomorrow I will go to Huayang Palace early to ask for peace, and directly ask the Queen Mother for Mao Mao, and say that I have spoiled this palace maid in private and placed it with my mother. The Queen Mother should not be embarrassed by me, at most, Mao Mao will go to Huayang Palace to serve in the future, and she will not be confused if she is not in the palace for a night. ā
At the same time, Lao Xiang saw Mao Mao, and immediately put the palace card she stole back, let alone alarm the Queen Mother. If this still makes the Queen Mother suspicious, I can't protect you. ā
Lao Xiang was surprised, kowtowed a few times, and said loudly: "Thank you for the completion of the king, thank you for the kindness of Miss Zhongli, from now on Lao Xiang's life is yours." If there is a violation, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed, and there will be no good death. ā
