humble minister

"Yes, Your Majesty is right." After a brief moment of stupefaction, Lian Ying replied with downcast eyes.

Shi Yu, is this what you said that you must believe in you no matter what you do?But how could he easily accept such a thing?This is a matter of a lifetime, no matter it is true or not, saying it in the court today is equivalent to announcing it to the world, and it cannot be changed.

"This..." Liang Xun was also obviously taken aback, and seeing that His Majesty's expression did not seem to be fake, even Ying himself gave a positive reply. Could it be that he really made a mistake?

"Since His Majesty has such an idea, the old minister will not dare to fight with His Majesty. If the princess can really make a pair with Sir Lian, it will be a good story." Liang Xun went down the slope. Since the emperor said so, then those rumors It will be broken without attacking, so he doesn't have to take advantage of his daughter's happiness.But after returning home, I have to unravel Zhilan well.

"Since that's the case, this farce has been exposed. Do you have anything else to report?" Shi Yu asked unhurriedly after glancing at the crowd.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, yesterday outside the city, I found several suspicious people who claimed to be His Majesty's accompanying guards when he went to the Southern Dynasty. They?" The generals walked out one by one and reported.

An accompanying guard?Probably a few spies who sneaked away at that time, but why did they return to the capital instead of leaving?It also happened to be installed by Xiong Wuke, the general who defended the city. It is too forced to say that it is a coincidence, and I am afraid it was arranged by someone again.

"What did they say to you?"

Contrary to what the Qing family thought, their Majesty actually asked a detailed question, and looking at Xiong Wuke, he also had a dignified look, which made the Qing family have to ponder whether there is any hidden secret in it?

"Reporting to Your Majesty, those people said that they escaped from the fire after a narrow escape, and asked about the safety of His Majesty, and finally begged him to inform His Majesty that there were spies in the accompanying team at that time." Xiong Wuke one by one He replied, with a little confusion on his face.

In fact, it wasn't just him who was confused, the ministers were also very confused when they heard this, why have they never heard that His Majesty encountered an ambush during his trip to the Southern Dynasty?

"You don't need to be confused, there is indeed such a thing. However, there is no danger. I am already safe now. I haven't told the family that it is not only to prevent the family from worrying, but also to stabilize the country, but also to avoid scaring the snake."

The emperor's explanation made everyone believe that there were spies, but His Majesty has never had anything to do when traveling in the past, so why this time?These spies are really cunning, if it wasn't for those people who narrowly escaped and brought the news out, they don't know how long they would have been kept in the dark.

"Lord Xiong, do those people know who the spies are?" Although he had a stalemate with the emperor before, Liang Xun, who had always been loyal to the emperor and patriotic, was the first to ask at this time.

Xiong Wuke, who has always been known for his upright advice, twitched at this time. He glanced at the current emperor, and then at the left minister. When the hearts of the two people being watched thumped at the same time, he opened his mouth and said: "Actually, those few people didn't know who the spy was, but they all said that they saw Mr. Lian who was with him sneak out more than once. I don't know who they met, and the man in red who was with Mr. Lian also They followed them when they returned from the Southern Dynasties."

really……

Xiong Wuke's words made Lian Ying's already unhappy complexion even more ugly. Such an ambiguous statement that he didn't know who the spy was really put him in a situation where he was easily suspected.Moreover, these words are mixed with truth and falsehood, neither can it be said to be correct, because he did not go out secretly, nor can it be said to be wrong, because Yao Li who was with him along the way was indeed with him when he returned from the Southern Dynasty. They went together.

"That is to say... Your Excellency Lian is very likely to be a spy." A murmur came from nowhere in the huge hall. Although no one echoed, no one reprimanded him, and everyone looked at Lian Ying. His gaze also changed slightly.

"Oh my god, is it too early to say this? People who don't know think that this is someone who is telling stories and gossips, disturbing the unity of the monarchs and ministers of the Northern Dynasty." The right minister Li Qing who has been silent At this time, he laughed and said, "Besides, Prime Minister Zuo is now a quasi-consort, and his official position is also a high official with less than one person and more than ten thousand people. He has to be a spy of another country for whatever he does. Can you offer more favorable conditions than these?"

Li Qing could see that, their cunning Emperor, the answer to discussing the marriage not only blocked Youyou's mouth, but also avoided the possibility of breaking up with Liang Xun. It should have played a certain role in whitewashing and persuasiveness when it was a spy.But even so, looking at Ah Ying's expression doesn't necessarily make him happy, does he?

The officials were silent, yes, why were they misled by that sentence just now?Ask yourself, if they have achieved the current achievements of Lian Zuoxiang, who would want to betray and become spies of other countries?Besides, His Majesty has always favored Sir Lian, and has shown him grace to know him. From their point of view, Sir Lian today, and Young Master Tingyun back then, don't look like a person who will repay kindness...

"Your Majesty, I think what Li Youxiang said is true, I hope your Majesty will consider it carefully." When the officials were silent, Jiang Chongzheng, who had been at odds with Li Qing for a long time, came out and looked at the high-ranking emperor seriously. road.

Cut, I want your idiot to help!

Li Qing spat in his heart, but the corners of his mouth raised slightly unconsciously.

Why do you say that the two people have been very inconsistent during this period of time?That's because every time Li Qing went to Nanling Building to look for Xia Ying, he would be blocked at the door by someone who rushed over after hearing the news. At first, he was concerned about face and didn't want to have any more contact with someone who thought he was disgusting, so his expression was pale. Leaving lividly, so as not to make a fuss and be laughed at by others.

Later, when she was blocked many times, Li Qing simply asked someone to take Xia Ying to his house secretly.In fact, he wasn't really infatuated with Xia Ying, he just wanted to chat with someone close to him, and Xia Ying was a good choice, she was well-behaved and sensible, didn't ask too much, didn't talk too much.

He could see that Xia Ying seemed to be sincere to him, but he also told Xia Ying that he had no chance with him because he already had someone in his heart.Xia Ying is smart, so she naturally knows who that person is; Xia Ying is sensible, so she naturally knows what to do, so now he and Xia Ying are more like friends and confidants, although it is not the case in the eyes of outsiders.

Well, that doesn't seem to be the case for that idiot either.

Li Qing originally thought that he would not be able to wait for the day when this idiot got enlightened, and gradually he was about to give up, but he didn't expect that the idiot would go directly to his house and drive Xia Ying out, and then he would be arrogant and disregarded He settled down in his house.I remember that there seemed to be a lot of gossip during that time, but that idiot didn't care at all, it's just that he didn't care, he cared, and then he personally cleaned up someone, got into a fight with someone, The result was gratifying - someone was kicked out by the owner, and Xia Ying was picked up again.

Ah, Li Qing feels that he still can't forget the unrecognizable expression on Jiang's idiot's face when he was beaten beyond recognition, and Xia Ying's expression of wanting to laugh but holding back desperately, as if she saw through something.Then, after that, Jiang Chongzheng often disagreed with him both in court and in court, and it was only then that rumors spread that the two were not at odds.

But now this person has finally really enlightened, knowing that he can't do it right, so he has to follow along.But Jiang Chongzheng said this because of his friendship with Lian Ying, His Majesty, Li Qing thought, and looked at the emperor whose complexion improved because of this sentence.

"Your Majesty, I can learn from my loyalty to Your Majesty. It is absolutely impossible for me to do anything to collude with the enemy and betray the country. In my opinion, those people are very suspicious and need to be interrogated carefully." At this time, even It should also be impossible to just listen and not talk like before. All kinds of things in the court today are aimed at him. It seems that the black hand behind the scenes is really going to kill himself.

"I'm afraid it's because people's hearts are not enough..." Just as Lian answered, another disharmonious voice sounded, as if deliberately opposing him and provoking everyone.

"I beg your majesty to learn from you." Lian Ying's complexion sank, and he knelt down with a "boom", his body was obviously extremely thin, but it made people feel extremely firm and full of strength.

All the ministers present are used to the intrigue. The most appropriate way at this time is to do nothing and say nothing. Before the matter is investigated, they will not favor anyone. This is The "way of being an official" in the capital.

Shi Yu's deep gaze swept over everyone, but it was a pity that he couldn't find out where the two discordant voices came from just now, and looking at the expressions of everyone, he knew that even though they didn't say anything, they were still in their hearts. He is suspicious of Ah Ying.

Well, Borg, you've played really big and bet really hard this time around.

Shi Yu knew very well that no matter how many debates there were at this time, there would be no result, so he simply asked Xiong Wuke to hand over those people later, while he waved his sleeves and retreated.

"Your Majesty." Liu An carefully handed a cup of hot tea to His Majesty the Emperor, who seemed to be in a very bad mood and was holding back a burst of anger, to moisten his throat.

After taking a sip of tea, Shi Yu put the teacup on the table with a bang, glanced at Liu An and asked, "How did Master Lian look when he left?"

With so many ministers staring at him before, he didn't want to look directly at him blatantly, so as not to lose his tongue. At this time, he can only ask Liu An who has been by his side and understands his mind quite well.

"Return to Your Majesty, this servant saw that Lord Lian's face was very pale when he left, and he looked a bit in a daze." Liu An opened his mouth considering his words, but what he said was the truth. Conceal or exaggerate.

After finishing speaking, seeing that His Majesty was also in a daze, and he didn't know what he was thinking, Liu An couldn't help but suggested in a low voice: "Your Majesty, do you want to let the servant secretly invite Sir Lien into the palace? There is something to talk about between the monarch and his ministers." That's fine."

Liu An's words were actually a bit out of line, but Shi Yu, who was in a low mood, didn't care.

"No need." It would be better for him and Lian Ying to keep a proper distance in the future, "Go and invite Prime Minister Right into the palace and say that I'm waiting for him in the imperial study."

"Hey." Liu An responded and withdrew, he knew that the emperor preferred to be alone at this time.
