Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 2422 Mutual criticism
Changsun Wuji was so frightened that he was sweating profusely.

Even when His Majesty Li Er was most dissatisfied with him, he never said such harsh words. On the one hand, it was because of the friendship he had fought side by side for many years, and on the other hand, because he was the eldest brother of Empress Wende.

His Majesty Li Er is a nostalgic person, for those former subordinates, he will take care of them as much as possible, and basically will not pursue the slightest mistake, even those who want to rebel like Hou Junji, they will only be blamed on He alone has never implicated the three clans.

At this moment, he was able to say a sentence of "killing a lot", which shows the extent of his anger.

Such methods as "assassination" have obviously touched His Majesty Li Er's bottom line. He suspects that Fang Jun is the mastermind behind the assassination of Chang Sun Chong. Even if there is no evidence, even if Chang Sun Chong is the one who has committed the crime, he can still acquiesce to the ministers Excluding Fang Jun from the Military Aircraft Department is considered a punishment.

Now someone is actually assassinating Fang Jun under his nose, in full view of everyone, which is simply ignoring the majesty of the emperor!
His Majesty Li Er doesn't like to kill, but it definitely means that he dare not kill!
He was anxious in his heart, and organized his words to defend himself. His Majesty Li Er's eyes had passed through many ministers, and fell on Qiu Xinggong on the other side.

At today's grand event in Furong Garden, meritorious officials like Qiu Xinggong, no matter what their positions are, are treated equally by His Majesty Li Er, and they are allowed to set foot in Ziyun Tower together, accompany the king, and share the honor.

Qiu Xinggong was chatting and laughing with his colleagues in the past, when he suddenly looked up, he saw His Majesty Li Er's face was gloomy, and he waved to him.

Puzzled in my heart, I hurried forward, bowed and said, "What orders does Your Majesty have?"

His Majesty Li Er stared at him like a falcon, and after a while, he asked slowly: "Fang Jun was assassinated, do you know?"

Qiu Xinggong was so frightened that he glanced at the eldest grandson Wuji next to His Majesty Li Er, his heart trembled suddenly, and he hurriedly argued: "Your Majesty knows the lesson, the final general will not know! The final general has grudges with Fang Jun, but all All these things are just conjectures, and there has never been any real evidence to prove that Fang Jun did it. The general has no ink, but he also knows the court's laws, and dare not despise the king's law and act recklessly! His majesty, with his candlelight and perceptiveness, will be able to distinguish those malicious and slanderous words, and see through those slanderous and framed people!"

A profuse sweat with a flustered expression immediately pointed the finger at Changsun Wuji.

Changsun Wuji was furious, and retorted: "Qiu Xinggong, what do you mean by that?"

Qiu Xinggong snorted coldly, and said: "The general is safe and sound. He hasn't even walked out of the gate a few times in the past half a year. How can he have something to do with Fang Jun's assassination? The dog died tragically back then, and the general doubted that it was Fang Jun who did it. But there has never been any evidence, so I have never had any ambitions for Fang Jun. On the contrary, Zhao Guogong, because of the unwarranted assassination of Changsun Chong, without any evidence, implicated Fang Jun recklessly and regarded the national law as nothing Such narrow-mindedness and violent temperament are naturally the biggest suspects in Fang Jun's assassination!"

Seeing that Changsun Wuji had been staying by His Majesty Li Er's side all the time, he subconsciously thought that he was slandering and slandering His Majesty Li Er, so he naturally refused to let it go.

Changsun Wuji was so angry that his round face turned red, and he angrily said: "Presumptuous! Fang Jun was assassinated just now, and the circumstances are unclear. What evidence do you have to slander me?"

Qiu Xinggong did not back down: "There is no evidence for Changsun Chong's assassination, but why did Zhao Guogong go to Fang's house like a shrew and keep saying that Fang Jun did it? You don't need evidence at all for your own family's assassination, as long as you believe The murderer must be put to death, but if someone else is assassinated, you will openly demand evidence? It is shameless!"

The two of you talked to each other, and they quarreled on the spot.

All the ministers upstairs in Ziyun were shocked on the spot, Fang Jun was assassinated? !
motherfucker!

Who is so daring to assassinate Fang Jun in broad daylight among thousands of troops?
The most important thing is... Did you succeed?
Everyone chattered and whispered, Princess Zhende's pretty face was already pale, her delicate body trembled, and she barely stood still.

If Fang Jun died... She couldn't imagine it.

All the procedures of the three media and six certificates have been completed. Strictly speaking, although she has never married, she is already Fang Jun's person in name. Not really, just a complete widow.

As a princess of Silla, she is now attached to the Tang Dynasty and is under the fence of others. Instead of bringing her any protection, her noble status makes her a "fat piece" that everyone covets. swallow.

If she becomes a widow again... what will she do for the rest of her life?
Who else should the sisters turn to to rely on?
For Fang Jun, she may not have much affection, but just thinking about the predicament she will face after Fang Jun was assassinated is enough to make her sad.

His Majesty Li Er raised his hand to stop Changsun Wuji and Qiu Xinggong from attacking each other, and said kindly to Princess Zhende: "Princess, don't worry. Fang Jun was assassinated, but his life was not in danger. He is currently in the Queen's residence. In treatment, the princess can go back first and have a visit."

As soon as this remark came out, not only Princess Zhende, but everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Although many people wish that Fang Jun would simply die, they all understand that if Fang Jun is really stabbed to death, whoever will be involved may be involved in the violent shock caused by half a lifetime of fame and wealth for a lifetime. The smoke cleared.

Princess Zhende's eyes lit up, she quickly bowed her skirt and saluted, and said in a low voice, "The servant girl will leave for the time being."

His Majesty Li Er nodded and said, "Well, let's go."

When Princess Zhende left in a hurry, His Majesty Li Er looked around, and said in a deep voice: "Today is a grand event in Furong Garden, and the whole world celebrates it. Fang Jun's assassination should not be publicized too much. All loves know it in their hearts immediately, and absolutely must not." Act rashly, so as not to cause panic among the people and cause a catastrophe."

"Here!"

"Your servant will know!"

"Follow Your Majesty's orders!"

……

The ministers responded quickly.

Compared with Fang Jun's assassination, if it caused panic among the people in Chang'an City, and eventually led to unrest, stampede and other bad events, the impact would be even greater!

After saying that, His Majesty Li Er looked at Qiu Xinggong, and said calmly: "Now in the mansion where your father lived, I found suspicious people, Aiqing and I will go together, go and have a look!"

"..."

Qiu Xinggong's legs went limp and he almost fell to the ground.

I found it in my old house, can someone wait?
No wonder His Majesty questioned me like that just now... Mother!
Who the hell is trying to frame me?
He raised his head suddenly, and stared at Changsun Wuji viciously. If the hatred in his eyes became tangible, he could almost poke a hole in Changsun Wuji!

As expected of the eldest grandson Yin man, who borrowed a knife to kill people, planted blame, and played really slippery!
But he knew it was useless to talk, so he was the biggest suspect right now, so he could only say: "Old minister obeys the order!"

His Majesty Li Er ordered the ministers: "My dear friends, continue to enjoy the lotus here, wait for me to go to see the situation, turn around later, and then have a drink with you!"

"Here!"

"I'm waiting to send you to Your Majesty!"

His Majesty Li Er nodded slightly, and led Qiu Xinggong downstairs.

Changsun Wuji thought for a while, and hurriedly followed...

*****
Gao Kan stood on the main building, pushed open the window, and looked to the south. As far as he could see, he could have a panoramic view of the gate of Queen Seondeok's mansion hundreds of steps away.

The location is great!
Hurry up and order the soldiers to completely seal off the compound, gather all the servants in one place and detain them separately, interrogate them one by one, and then let people search all the houses carefully, and bring a few army crossbows with him Hands search the main building.

"General, look!"

Before long, the search paid off.

A crossbowman lay in front of the window, called Gao Kan over, pointed to a spot on the floor and said, "Look here, General!"

Gao Kan looked down and saw that the floor was smooth and clean, without any dust, which was very unreasonable.It is said that this place was the place where Qiu He lived in hiding during his lifetime. Since his death, few people have come here. His children all live in the mansion given by the imperial court. How clean and tidy and spotless.

Unless someone just cleaned it up...

Gao Kan didn't see anything unusual, he squatted down like the crossbowman, the sunlight reflected on the hall, and two clear scratches appeared in his eyes.

The crossbowman said: "Before launching the crossbow, it must be leveled. The four legs are gripping the ground. When firing, due to the strong recoil force of the bowstring, the body of the crossbow will tremble. In the wild, the four legs will sink into the mud, and Here, scratches will form on the floor!"
