Prince Jinzhong, the governor of the editorial office, hurriedly entered the palace.
This factory man, who was known for his ruthlessness and decisiveness outside the palace, was as docile as a kitten in front of Emperor Jianwu, kneeling under the high platform of the Immortal Palace.
Wang Jinzhong, who is very sensitive to the smell of blood, smelled the smell of blood as soon as he stepped into the Celestial Palace.
Although the palace had been swept through and incense was burned to remove the smell, it was still hidden from his nose.
Wang Jinzhong, whose forehead touched the ground, secretly looked around with his peripheral vision and found that the eunuch serving in the palace had been changed and was no longer the same as before.
Suddenly there was some speculation in his mind, so he lowered his head lower and raised his butt higher.
It's like a dog that has made a mistake and is waiting for punishment from its owner.
"You all get out."
On the high platform, Emperor Jianwu issued orders to the new eunuchs in the Immortal Palace after Wang Jinzhong arrived.
These eunuchs immediately put down their work, filed out of the Dengxian Palace, and closed the door of the palace.
At this moment, Emperor Jianwu said to Wang Jinzhong who was kneeling under the high platform: "Okay, don't act like an old dog who made mistakes, get up and talk."
"This slave takes the order."
Wang Jinzhong breathed a sigh of relief secretly.
Emperor Jianwu called him an old dog, which showed that he was still useful, and it was not time for the cunning rabbit to die and be cooked by the lackey.
He kowtowed and got up from the ground.
"Do you know why I called you here?"
Emperor Jianwu was talking, but his eyes were not looking at Wang Jinzhong, he was just staring at the alchemy furnace in front of him.
In the green fire, fresh souls were being burned, showing painful expressions.
The energy generated by the burning soul is absorbed by the alchemy furnace and provided to the pills being refined in the furnace.
"The slave knows."
Wang Jinzhong did not dare to neglect and hurriedly reported his findings.
"When the rumors first started, I sent out capable personnel to investigate. Now it has been found that the first people to spread the rumors were followers of the Black Lotus Sect. It was also the people of the Black Lotus Sect who secretly fueled the situation and allowed the people to spread the rumors. Rumors quickly spread throughout the city..."
When Emperor Jianwu heard this, he finally turned to look at him, with an expression of disbelief on his face.
"How could it be someone from the Black Lotus? Why would they do this?"
Wang Jinzhong answered cautiously: "It is said that a Bodhisattva issued an edict..."
Emperor Jianwu was extremely angry and laughed back: "The Bodhisattva issued a decree? Ridiculous! Which Bodhisattva in the Black Lotus Sect would dare to issue such a decree?"
"Those Black Lotus followers are at the lowest level, and they can't tell which Bodhisattva sent the decree..."
While Wang Jinzhong reported, he secretly observed Emperor Jianwu's expression.
Seeing that something was wrong, he quickly made a bold guess: "Long live Lord, could this be done by Renjia?"
The Lienjia mentioned by Wang Jinzhong is exactly the Buddhist name of the monk "See You Tomorrow".
Of course, no one can tell whether this Dharma name is true or false.
Wang Jinzhong is different from the previous eunuchs who served Emperor Jianwu in the Dengxian Palace.
He was an old man from Qiandi. He grew up with Emperor Jianwu and cultivated immortality together. He was deeply trusted, otherwise Emperor Jianwu would not have let him take charge of the editing factory.
Under such circumstances, Wang Jinzhong naturally knew more secrets than others.
Even when the monk "See You Tomorrow" fled back to Daxia from Qingtang, he asked Wang Jinzhong to help guide him, and then he was able to enter the palace and meet Emperor Jianwu.
Emperor Jianwu on the high platform, after hearing Wang Jinzhong's words, his first reaction was not to believe it, and even his face darkened, and he opened his mouth to reprimand him.
But when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back.
After frowning and pondering for a moment, Emperor Jianwu asked, "Why do you doubt him? He has no reason to do this, right?"
Wang Jinzhong is not biting randomly, he does have his own analysis and judgment:
"There are only a few people who know the details of the elixir in Long Live Lord's furnace, and who can accurately find the followers of the Black Lotus Sect in the capital, and issue decrees for them to obey, and Lianjia is one of them.
On the other side of Qingtang, Lianjia not only successfully started a war between the two countries, but also destroyed the dragon vein of Qingtang. Now that all the sacrifices are in his hands, there is no guarantee that he will not have other ideas.
Long live my lord, Lianjia is different from us slaves. Not only is he not loyal, he is also quite ambitious..."
Emperor Jianwu sneered and shook his head.
"What's the benefit of doing this to him? The big festival is about to start. If he makes trouble at this time, he's not afraid of affecting the big festival? And there are rumors that he stole Zheng Yayuan's body! How can he expose himself? "
"Long live Lord, it is precisely because the big festival is about to begin that Renjia needs to take action.
According to the original plan, the officiant of the grand ceremony will be you, Long Live the Lord. The gift from the gods is mainly given to you, Long Live Lord.
But now, the sacrifices are all in the hands of Lianjia. How can he be willing to be a supporting role and only get a few benefits?
He deliberately chose this time to incite public opinion and guide the people and officials to force the palace, just to seek more benefits during the grand ceremony!
Long live my Lord, before entering the palace, I went to the Qintian Prison. They looked at the sky and said that the Ziwei Emperor Star was blocked and collided, and it had a tendency to become unstable.
The slave guessed that although this change in the celestial phenomena would not endanger Long Live Lord's throne and country, it would probably cause an accident to the high priest... If this was the case, Renjia would have an opportunity to take advantage of it.
As for exposing himself in the rumors, this is Renjia's cunning and cleverness.
By doing this, he can first reduce his suspicion. Secondly, with his ability to change, even if he is inspected, it is difficult for others to detect flaws.
He has proven his innocence, but what about you, Long Live My Lord? Don't you also want to open the alchemy furnace and let people see what's going on inside? "
The expression on Emperor Jianwu's face kept changing with Wang Jinzhong's analysis.
After Wang Jinzhong finished speaking, he fell into silence and did not speak for a long time.
Wang Jinzhong, who knew Emperor Jianwu well, felt relieved when he saw this scene. He knew that Emperor Jianwu had already doubted and had a grudge against Lianjia in his heart.
What he had to do at this time was to wait for Emperor Jianwu to make his own judgment instead of continuing to apply eye drops.
After about a stick of incense, Emperor Jianwu spoke again and asked, "Have you ever gone to find Lianjia?"
"have."
"How did he say?"
"He asked me to investigate Qin Shaoyou. He said that when he was in Qingtang, Qin Shaoyou had used similar tactics to incite public opinion in Qingtang King's City, making Qingtang people suspicious of the old Qingtang King who had taken away the seventh prince. Disrupted many arrangements of the old King Qingtang..."
"Ah."
Emperor Jianwu sneered.
"This Qin Shaoyou is really a useful shield. Everyone wants to push him out to take the blame."
"My slave thinks so too.
How many days has it been since Qin Shaoyou came to Beijing? No matter how powerful he is, he can't master so many secrets in such a short period of time.
On the contrary, it is not impossible for Lianjia, who saw Qin Shaoyou using such methods at Qingtang, to follow suit when he came back, and then blame Qin Shaoyou again. "
Emperor Jianwu nodded slightly.
After a while, the will is given.
"Let your people continue to investigate. Find out who the Black Lotus Sect Bodhisattva is who issued the decree!
Also, closely monitor the officials in Beijing to see who is having fun in this matter, and give me their list. It happens that there is a shortage of manpower in the copywriting department, let them fill it!
As for Renjia... keep a close eye on him and don't take any other actions for the time being.
As you said, the sacrifice of the great sacrifice is still in his hands. Even if he wants to attack him, it is not time to keep an eye on him first.
The defense of the Great Festival must be strengthened again, and there must be no mistakes! "
"Slave takes orders."
Wang Jinzhong knelt down to receive the order.
Just when he stood up to leave, Emperor Jianwu suddenly stopped him again.
"By the way...what is that kid Qin Shaoyou doing?"
