Chapter 246 (1/2)
There was something strange about the death of the emperor. Although the news was blocked by the palace, so as not to cause panic among the people, there were so many civil and military officials. The secret of the palace was too big to hide. Colleagues in the court knew each other well, but they didn't talk about it.
Qi Feng is standing in the courtyard, playing with the Paperweight in his hand. Mo Cong asks curiously, ”what the hell is Xuanli going to do? Is it just to catch up with Zhao Jin? It's too much of a fuss. ” Mo Cong and Xiao Shao were together. Naturally, they knew that Xuanli was against them. There is no doubt that Xuanli's death is closely related to Xuanli's death. Originally, people thought that Xuanli wanted nothing but the emperor's death due to illness. Who knows, but the poisoning happened again. Xuanli must have deliberately left clues, but the purpose of his doing so was to involve a Zhao Jin.
If Zhao Jin's family is involved in it, the reason is that Zhao Jin and Dong Yinger have a personal grudge. In this way, it has nothing to do with the murder of the emperor. It's just that Zhao Jin wants to harm Dong Yinger, but the emperor is poisoned. Since it's just for the sake of pulling out a Zhao Jin, why should Xuanli do it? Besides, Xuanli and Zhao Jin have no grudge. Xuanli has never done much. In this way, Mo Cong can't understand it.
”Not so.” Qi Feng shook his head: ”Xuan Li has never been in vain, just a Zhao Jin, why do you do it.”
”That four elder brothers, you mean, this back has what back hand not to become?” Mo Cong hears speech to ask a way.
”Of course there is.” Qi Feng's voice sank down: ”Zhao Jin's family is the most important protector, and Zhao Jin and Jiang Xinzhi have already had an engagement, which is a grasshopper on the ship. However, it is not easy for Jiang Xinzhi to pick it out. Of course, the most important thing is that they have only one purpose. ”
”Your Royal Highness?” Mo Cong understood that everyone knew that Jiang and Ruan had a good relationship with Xuan Pei, and Jiang Xinzhi and Jiang and Ruan were brothers and sisters, so they naturally shared a common hatred. If Jiang Xinzhi can replace Jiang Ruan, it means that Jiang Xinzhi and Xuan Pei have also formed an alliance. As long as Jiang Xinzhi is dragged into the water, Xuan Pei will not be able to leave.
”I see!” When Mo Cong thought about it, he suddenly realized it and said, ”Xuan Li is extremely cunning. I think it should be in his calculation. If it is true, he must have made preparations for the future. Fourth brother, you and third brother should have a way to deal with it. Let's talk about it?” Mo Cong always has great trust in Xiao Shao and Qi Feng. Qi Feng is in charge of baizhanglou in the back, and Xiao Shao is leading the royal guards in the front. He has always cooperated very well. Even if the opponents are cunning, the whole Mo family, including Mr. Mo, are worried recently. Mo Cong himself is not worried at all. When the sky falls down, there are still several martial brothers to support it. After all, nothing will happen.
Qi Feng looked at him and said with a smile, ”I won't tell you.”
Mo Cong was disheartened: ”fourth brother, at least we are friends of the same family.”
”It's good for you to be at ease in the court. By the way, please comfort your old man. Don't be dazzled by the current situation in the court. It's good to be neutral, but those who know the current affairs are heroes. The eighth Prince and the thirteenth prince, who will win more, needless to say, you know. It's better to persuade your father than to have the heart to talk to me. You are also a member of the Mo family. Don't ignore your family all day long. ” Qi Feng simply taught Mo Cong.
Although Mo Cong is intelligent, he is about a young man. He is a late beginner among his brothers. He is playful and likes to be a child. What he hates most is preaching. After listening to Qi Feng's words, he felt a headache and said: ”stop, stop, fourth brother. I won't ask. Is it OK?” He took a look outside. Xiao Shao has been busy in recent days. He is not at home at all. He has been here several times and no one has been seen. Mo Cong said, ”is the third brother still worrying about the third sister-in-law? No news at all? ”
Qi Feng heard that the light in his eyes was dim. After a while, he shook his head and said, ”No.” At the beginning, this plan was decided by Jiang Ruan and him. No matter how unwilling he was, he knew that it was the best way. Later, he thought that it would be better for the Royal Guards not to scare the snake and let them secretly investigate. But up to now, we haven't found out where the people are. Even Qi Feng was worried. But he also knew that Xiao Shao's worries were much greater than his. The matter had come to this point, but he had to continue. I only hope that the death of the emperor is a guide, which can make Xuanli move faster. In that case, the plan can be carried out smoothly.
……
In the dungeon, Zhao Jin looked at Lin Zixiang who came to visit him and asked anxiously, ”what's the matter?”
Lin Zixiang's face was a little ugly: ”your father was sent to the Ministry of punishment for interrogation. It's a big deal. The emperor's affairs are sensitive. Now your Zhao family is a big deal. Zhao's house is sealed now. I asked my father to ask the Empress Dowager for her life, but it's useless. I'm sorry, Zhao Jin. ” Lin Zixiang is very sad. She really wants to help Zhao Jin, but his father has a long history of fame but no real power. Usually, he just talks, which can't really affect the decision of the superior.
Seeing this, Zhao Jin was relieved and said, ”if I don't do your business, this is what happened this time. It's too much. By the way, Zixiang, what does my father say? Did you tell my father to blame me for all this? ”Zhao Jin has seen clearly, since this matter is Dong Ying'er's final decision for her, then as long as she dies, it doesn't matter. In any case, the whole Zhao family should not be involved. If she only admits that it's her fault, then it's just her fault that she tried to murder Dong Yinger and killed the emperor by mistake. The Zhao family can at least get away and save their lives. But if the whole Zhao family is involved, I'm afraid the whole family will be charged with deliberately murdering the son of heaven.
Lin Zixiang was silent for a long time. He shook his head and said, ”your father and your two brothers love you so much. How can you bear all the things by yourself? You know it's impossible.”
In fact, as long as the two young masters of the Zhao family and master Zhao argue that they have no knowledge of the matter, they can be selected from it. After all, the Zhao family really has no reason to harm the emperor now, and the evidence is basically conclusive now. Who knows that master Zhao and the two young masters of the Zhao family are hard bones. They have spoiled Zhao Jin since childhood. How can they stand idly by. Not only is not willing to push all the things to Zhao Jin, but also fight for Zhao Jin. To say that Zhao Jin would never send poisonous ginseng to the palace is to say that Dong Ying'er would not murder it. This is definitely a frame up and someone designed it.
This is the sensitive time, such a grievance is a violation of the Ministry of punishment's taboo, even when the situation becomes more tense. Zhao Jin smell speech is to stay to stay, immediately wry smile a: ”it is I to give them to add trouble after all.”
Lin Zixiang also sighed: ”as a daughter, at least your father is willing to protect you. When Ruan's sister was in prison...” She didn't go on. The relationship between Jiang Ruan and Jiang Quan was never good. The cold and thin man wanted to go down the well and say what he wanted to protect. The fate between people is so different, but now master Zhao's protection is not necessarily a good thing.
”You go back.” Zhao Jin tired way: ”I think again.”
