Mao hour has just arrived, Si Chen is shouting loudly, and at this moment when uprightness and blackness meet, many people may not be able to get up yet, but at this time, the ministers of Taiji Hall are already in the second class, standing with their pens pointing, their expressions solemn and solemn, and their eyes not squinting.
"Your Majesty has arrived." Gao Xian, who was standing on the lower right side, shook his fly whisk and shouted loudly.
Xiao Shiyu wore a golden crown on his head and a golden python robe. He took the steps of a dragon and a tiger and walked slowly to the dragon seat in the middle of the hall. He turned around gracefully, plucked the back corner of the python robe with his hand, and sat down. On the dragon chair, the majesty of the king is fully displayed.
"Long live your Majesty! Long live! Long live!" All the ministers fell to their knees in unison.
"Your Majesty, please get back on your feet." Xiao Shiyu made an upward gesture with both hands toward everyone: "Gao Xian, watch over the seats of Princess Murong and Princess Yuanjin."
"According to the order." Gao Xian waved his whisk at the servant beside him. In a moment, the four chamberlains moved two silver-edged mahogany chairs to the left and right sides under the steps of the dragon throne.
"I, Murong Li, would like to thank Your Majesty for granting me a seat."
"Yuan Jin thanks His Majesty for the seat."
Murong Li and Yuan Jin both thanked him.
"Huang Delang, Minister of Rites, present the covenant drawn up by your ministry." Xiao Shiyu ordered.
"I obey the order." Among the two squads, a red-robed official holding a jade scepter walked out of the left column. He took out three bright yellow scrolls from his broad sleeves and placed them on the long table in the center of the hall. On a tray on the table.
"Today is a very auspicious day according to Qin Tianmonitor's calculations." Xiao Shiyu's every word seemed sonorous and powerful: "We, Qi State and Yan Wei, have decided on a strategy of integration. I believe that we will be able to form an alliance forever in the future."
"Thank you, Your Majesty for your grace." Murong Li and Yuan Jin knelt down to salute.
"Your Majesty, you are wise." The officials knelt down again.
"Everyone is safe." Xiao Shiyu raised his hand again: "However, before the alliance is concluded, the cases regarding the Liu Mansion and Wei Guanyi must be settled first, which can be considered as an added blessing to the alliance."
"Your majesty is wise, Jin also wants to give an explanation to brother Wang to appease the anger of the people of Wei." Yuan Jin made a series of remarks to Xiao Shiyu.
"Liu Ningshi, the daughter of Xuanliu Zhongshu, has an eagle hunting ghost face in the Tingwei Mansion, and Tong Bo, the guard of the Jingwei Mansion, comes to see her." Xiao Shiyu signaled with his eyes, and Gao Xian immediately understood.
"Ning Shi has met His Majesty."
"I am a humble official in the royal palace. I will see your majesty in the face of an eagle catching ghosts."
"Tong Bo, the guard of the Xuanwu Academy, is here to meet His Majesty."
Liu Ningshi, Gui Mian and Tong Bo walked up to the emperor with their heads held high, and knelt down to pay homage.
"Let's all be flat." Xiao Shiyu smiled and raised his hand.
"Ghost Face, report everything you find to His Majesty." Tingwei Zhishan said.
"Yes, sir." The ghost nodded towards Liu Ningshi.
"Your Majesty, a few days ago Ningshi was attacked by a gang of gangsters at Wei Yiguan. As the sky draws a curtain, all these extremely evil people have been arrested and are currently being held in the prison of Tingwei Mansion." Liu Ningshi looked towards the person sitting there. Murong Li, who was on the left, bowed his hands and said, "I'm sorry for the prince's help in this matter. I would like to express my thanks in this poem."
"Ahem! Miss Liu, you don't have to be polite. We Yan people have always hated evil and will never allow these murderers to go unpunished." Murong Li coughed twice with his fist against his mouth, slowly stood up and said: "Princess, this matter requires It’s you who give the explanation!”
"What does the prince mean by this?" Yuan Jin also stood up: "Do you mean that we killed the members of the mission ourselves?"
"It's not impossible for the guards to commit theft!" Murong Li paced back and forth in the main hall: "I heard that when the criminals attacked Wei Yiguan, they spared your bedroom, Princess."
"But at that time, it was Prince Murong who invited me and Prime Minister Han to have tea." Yuan Jin's eyes were full of cold light: "Could it be said that Prince Murong deliberately separated me from Prime Minister Han to allow the murderer to commit crimes?"
"Prince! The princess has a generous nature and treats her servants as family members. How could she do such things as guarding and stealing?" Liu Ningshi defended Yuan Jin.
"The prince doesn't need to speculate. In fact, our Tingwei Mansion has already found out who the murderer is. This is a confession signed by the murderer Yongzhu. Please preview it." Ghost Face handed the confession to the person who came. The chamberlain glanced at Tong Bo inadvertently: "This Murong Li really knows how to find ways to get him to identify the murderer, but he wants to create more conflicts."
"I told you earlier, although you think you are Murong Li's nemesis, he is by no means so easy to deal with." Tong Bo faced the ghost face into the secret passage with a face full of teasing.
"Come here, show this confession to the princess." After Xiao Shiyu read it, he handed the confession to the chamberlain.
"Xiang Han, did the murderer Yaozhu say he was ordered by you?" Yuan Jin frowned slightly: "I don't know how you want to explain this?"
"It's too childish to ask a gangster who was captured from nowhere to make a so-called confession and say that I ordered everything, isn't it?" Han Xun laughed: "Besides, I'm dignified What reason does the Prime Minister of Wei have to kill the people of Liu Mansion and also kill his own people?"
"Prime Minister Han, maybe you won't think it's child's play when I invite you to meet someone later." Liu Ningshi turned around happily and saluted Xiao Shiyu with her crotch folded: "Your Majesty, please allow Ning Shi to meet someone." Prove it to the palace."
"That's right." Following Xiao Shiyu's order, Gao Xian's sharp voice remembered again: "Passenger's Certificate."
A thin man slowly came from outside the hall. His originally red face now looked pale and weak, as if he had just recovered from a serious illness.
"This is Ge Er, the guard of the Jingwei Mansion." Liu Ningshi smiled at Han Xun: "Presumably Prime Minister Han knows this person."
"You? Aren't you dead?" Han Xun blurted out subconsciously, knowing that he had said the wrong thing and attracted everyone's attention.
"Tong Guard, please explain." Liu Ningshi tilted her head and smiled "hehe" at Tong Bo.
"This man's name is Ge Tiandao, and he and his eldest brother Zhang Jiuyun are both well-known secret spies in the world. But they also have another identity, they are the servants of your Han family." Tong Bo rolled his eyes at Liu Ningshi and looked at Han Xun Zuo Yi said: "Xiang Han, what I said is right."
"Hmph!" Han Xun snorted coldly, looking noncommittal.
"The reason why he didn't die is thanks to his eldest brother Zhang Jiuyun." When Tong Bo said about this person, he showed awe-inspiring expression: "Zhang Jiuyun had long known that they would be doomed after being caught, so he endured it alone. The poison of Risha; as for the poison caused by Ge Tian Dao, Zhang Jiuyun deliberately replaced it with Liuyunsha, which is similar to Risha, in order to confuse the public."
"So when Dr. Quan came to check, I hinted that he would cooperate with us in a play. Sure enough, Ruan Wanzhong informed Yongzhu and the others after this trick was done." The ghost face next to Tong Bo continued: "Thanks to Xiang. Yun Shi rescued him in time, otherwise the life and death of those who were poisoned by this kind of poison would be 50-50."
"This Ge Tian Dao is a servant of the Han family. It doesn't mean that it was Prime Minister Han who ordered the killing, right?" Murong Li raised his own doubts: "It's okay to kill people from the Liu family, but it doesn't make sense to kill people from your own country. ”
"Because Miss Liu was poisoned by blowfish poison suddenly, the guards of Xuanwuyuan surrounded Wei Yiguan again. In order to have tea with the prince on time, Han Xun did everything he could to instigate Yongzhu Slaughter all the Xuanwu guards and the servants of Wei Yiguan." Ghost Face warned: "It means Miss Liu is smart, otherwise it is hard to say whether she can stand here now."
"As for why we attacked the Liu Mansion, we have to talk about the past thirty years." Tong Bo handed a token to the chamberlain: "Your Majesty, you should know what this token represents, right?"
"Huh? This is the token given by the late emperor to the "Nong" family? How come it is in your hand?" Xiao Shiyu looked at the token carefully, and told the origin of this token in detail: "Shi, Nong, The four major families of industry and commerce were appointed by the late emperor and were headed by the Yuan, Zhang, Gong, and Su families. At that time, each family received a token as a token, and only with the token can they be considered legitimate."
"What your Majesty said is absolutely true." Tong Bo smiled at Han Xun and said: "As far as Bo knows, the Han family was the first choice of the Nong family, and the Zhang family was the second choice. Later, for some reason, the Zhang family was named the Nong family. However, the Han family was executed for the crime of privately selling official grain."
"Yes, I am a descendant of the Han family." Han Xun's face showed pain when he heard the past: "I was only ten years old at the time, but I watched my parents and more than a hundred members of the Han family being raped for no reason. Beheaded for their crimes, I vow to avenge them."
"Later, under the protection of Zhang Jiuyun and Ge Tiandao, I traveled to many places and came to Luoyang, the capital of Wei. With my own efforts step by step, I finally achieved the position of Prime Minister." Han Xun calmed down and said, "These years , I have been tracing the truth of that year. I discovered that the Liu family and the Zhang family conspired to forge the agricultural orders and sold all the grain and grass in the official warehouses of Lucheng on the border to border merchants. "
"That's nonsense." The senile Zhang Peizhi was furious after hearing this: "Your Majesty, this Han family slipped through the net and committed such a heinous act. Not only does it show no regrets, but it's such nonsense. It's really hateful."
"Liu Qianfeng is dead, and Liu Yuanzhi doesn't know his ancestry; but Zhang Peizhi, you are in doom today." Han Xun took out a scroll from his sleeve robe, which looked a bit old: "This is the Secretary of Agriculture's edict of that year, and there is another A letter to and from you; your Majesty will know the merits of it at a glance."
"Zhang Sinong, do you want to read this Sinong's edict and letter?" Xiao Shiyu's face suddenly darkened after reading it, and he threw the edict and letter to the ground.
"This..." Zhang Peizhi held up the edict and the letter with trembling hands and read half a cup of tea: "I beg your Majesty to have mercy on me. I was confused back then and asked Liu Qianfeng to frame the Han family together."
"Prince Murong, Princess Yuanjin, do you have anything else to say?" Xiao Shiyu looked at the two of them.
"Everything is decided by His Majesty." The two bowed to Xiao Shiyu.
"Han Xun, Prime Minister of the State of Wei, you instigated Taozhu and other thugs to commit violence against Liu Mansion and Wei Guanyi, and destroyed the relationship between Qi and Wei. You should be beheaded." Xiao Shiyu waved his sleeve: "Zhang Peizhi, back then you colluded with Liu Qianfeng to sell private goods. Official food, and also framed the Han family, which is really a capital crime. Since you, the Zhang family, have been through life and death since Taizu, and have made many contributions, I will spare you from death and go home to take care of yourself. The original Zhongshu ordered Liu Qian After he had been dead for many years, Liu Yuanzhi accepted the title on his behalf. He was demoted to three levels and retained, and he could still travel to Zhongshu Province."
"Ning Shi thanked His Majesty for his grace on behalf of his father." Liu Ningshi saluted Xiao Shiyu seriously.
"Old minister, I thank your majesty for your kindness." Zhang Peizhi stood up tremblingly, with tears streaming down his face, and bowed to Xiao Shiyu: "According to our Daqi law, the position of agriculture minister should be assigned to me by the Zhang family. Hereditary, please allow your majesty to allow Zhang Ye to take up the post of agriculture."
"What a good Zhang Peizhi, I have spared you from death, yet you are still making terms with me." Xiao Shiyu sneered in his heart, but on the surface he looked kind: "Master of the Ministry of Rites, is that so?"
"Your Majesty, this is true according to law and etiquette." Li Congwen, the Minister of Rites, came out of the procession and bowed to Xiao Shiyu.
"That's good! Since there are rules to follow and etiquette to follow, of course I will play it correctly." Xiao Shiyu signaled to Gao Xian: "Invite the new Si Nong to the palace."
