The rebirth of the poisonous concubine

Chapter 109 Is it the beginning or the end?
Situ Rui patted the table, pointed at Fang Zhe and said, "You..."

Seeing that the relationship between the two people was somewhat delicate, Liu Chenyue on the side quickly smoothed things over and said, "Your Majesty, let's continue talking about the assassin."

Obviously, Fang Zhe, the commander of the imperial army, was very dissatisfied with Situ Rui; and although Situ Rui was the emperor, he was angry at Fang Zhe's provocation, but he cared about not being able to deal with him.

Situ Rui held back his anger and said, "You guys continue talking."

"The six ghosts of Nanshan are already dead. Naturally, there is nothing taboo about the dead. However, what really worries me is the person who killed the six ghosts of Jiangnan. People are killed with one move, so they don't even have a chance to resist." Fang Zhe said seriously, his expression was extremely serious.

"I don't know whether the people who killed the six ghosts in the south of the Yangtze River are enemies or friends, and whether they have any intentions against the emperor. During these days, the ministers will strengthen the emperor's security guards. When the emperor comes in and out, bring more people and be more careful. what."

It was obviously for Situ Rui's good, but when he heard Situ Rui's ears, he always felt a little mocking.

Seeing that Situ Rui was annoyed by Fang Zhe again, Qu Moyan on the side quickly said: "Your Majesty, although the ministers have not found out the real identity of the person who killed the Nanshan Six Ghosts, they found him on the body of the Nanshan Six Ghosts." something."

Situ Rui still stabilized his face that was about to change, and asked in a cold voice: "What evidence did you find?"

Liu Chenyue on the side presented the evidence, and said with a serious face: "If you go back to the emperor, I found something on those assassins, it was the red medicine that the first maid of Qifeng Palace hanged to death in the imperial garden. I searched Miss Hongyao’s residence carefully and found the letters between her and those assassins. I asked someone to compare the handwriting, and it was indeed written by Miss Hongyao, and it was definitely not copied by others.”

"Fengqi Palace? Why is this matter related to Fengqi Palace again?" Hearing Liu Chenyue's words, Situ Rui didn't care to pursue Fang Zhe, and questioned Liu Chenyue loudly, almost in a gaffe.

"If you go back to the emperor, what the letter shows is only the evidence of Hong Yao's relationship with those assassins. I dare not say that it has something to do with Fengqi Palace. And judging from the contents of the letter, Hong Yao ordered two groups of assassins to enter the palace that day. , there is a wave of assassins who died in the Imperial Garden, and there is another wave of assassins, I can conclude that they are the assassins on the Phoenix Terrace." Liu Chenyue said.

After listening to Liu Chenyue's words, Situ Rui sat there thinking for a while, and asked: "Then does this matter have anything to do with the queen?"

"Back to the emperor, there is no evidence pointing to the queen. Judging from the evidence we have, this matter was all done by Hong Yao alone." Liu Chenyue said sternly.

"Okay, I understand, so that means, this matter has nothing to do with Nanjiang?"

"Yes, although both Hong Yao and the people involved in the case are dead, judging from the ornaments that the assassins deliberately left on Nanjiang, their purpose must be to deliberately provoke the relationship between Xiling and Nanjiang. "Liu Chenyue said.

"Have you found any other clues?" Situ Rui asked.

"The minister is incompetent, all the clues are broken here, and no clues have been found out." Liu Chenyue knelt on the ground and apologized.

Situ Rui was silent for a long time, and then said: "It's been a few days since this incident, it's already very good that Mr. Liu can find out so many clues. Mr. Liu has worked hard these days, you should go back first."

These days, it was obvious that the Forbidden Army and Dali Temple cooperated to investigate the case, but Situ Rui only said that Liu Chenyue had worked hard, and did not mention Fang Zhe's credit at all, which shows the deep estrangement between the monarch and his ministers.

The three saluted Situ Rui and left. Liu Chenyue was going back to Dali Temple to write a memorial to the case, so Fang Zhe and Qu Moyan went to the palace to strengthen the patrol.

"It's obvious that our imperial army has put in a lot of effort in investigating the assassin, but the emperor only praised Dali Temple. It's too much to not mention the credit of our imperial army."

After the three of them separated, Qu Moyan couldn't help complaining about Fang Zhe.

Fang Zhe didn't care at all, and said: "The emperor has been like this for so many years, I am used to it, you are not used to it yet."

"You too, these years, for the Qin family's affairs..." The two are good brothers, and Fang Zhe and Qu Moyan talked about everything. Regarding the entanglements between Fang Zhe and the Qin family back then, Qu Moyan was one of the few people in the know.

Seeing the mention of the Qin family, Fang Zhe's face turned cold immediately, but Qu Moyan ignored Fang Zhe's cold face and said to himself: "Now the relationship between you and the emperor is already in turmoil. It's not like you don't know that the emperor has a suspicious and cruel personality. If you continue to be so arrogant, I'm afraid that one day he won't tolerate you. Since you don't want to see him because of the Qin family's affairs, you might as well resign from office. "

Fang Zhe thumped Qu Moyan's chest with a smile, and said: "You think well, if I resign, you will take the position of commander-in-chief, right? I won't do what you want, as long as One day I am, I will oppress you one day."

The two are also brothers who lived and died together, and Qu Moyan joked with Fang Zhe without hesitation: "My petty thoughts were discovered by you so quickly, alas, it seems that I will be in front of you all my life." I'm a little shorter than you."

Having been brothers with Fang Zhe for so many years, he is naturally clear about Fang Zhe's character. Fang Zhe must have his purpose in staying in the palace, but Qu Moyan did not expose him. tai chi.

After walking for a while, Qu Moyan said, "Do you think this is the end of the assassin's case in the palace?"

"The identity of the assassin has been found. Hong Yao's death is the mastermind, and her death is no longer important. Isn't that the case closed?" Fang Zhe said with a faint smile on his lips.

"However, although the connection between Hong Yao and those assassins has been found out in this case, more questions have been raised. Hong Yao is just a maid who lives in a secluded palace, so why did she contact outside assassins? This case Did Hong Yao do it alone, or was there someone behind the scenes? Who killed Hong Yao, and what happened to the body of the Royal Garden? I haven't figured it out yet, the emperor ordered the three divisions to interrogate, so Isn't it a bit thunderous and rainy to form a headless koan?" Qu Moyan said.

"Who said this matter is over like this, this matter is just the beginning." Fang Zhe said quietly, with a penetrating coldness in his eyes.

Qu Moyan looked at Fang Zhe without saying a word.

Seeing Qu Moyan looking at himself with probing eyes, Fang Zhe said with a smile: "Forget it, you and I don't need to care about the rest of the matter. We have been busy with this case for a few days. I am leaving the palace today. I invite brother Let's have a good meal."

Qu Moyan shrugged and said: "I know you must know something inside, but I still say that, I won't ask if you don't tell me. If there is anything, brother is on call. As long as you still treat me as a brother. "

"Of course you are my brother!"

The two big men met fists in a manly way and walked away side by side.

Twilight has fallen.

……

The lamps have been lit in Yuejun's hall.

Fang Zhe came here secretly, it was Adai who saw him, he came quietly, and then left quietly.

Adai came in with chicken soup, and said to Qin Wange who was lazily lying on the soft couch: "Just now Commander Fang came over and said that the emperor has already known the truth, and the suspicion of southern Xinjiang has been transferred to Hongyao and Qi Feng Gong is over there, and he asked what he should do next."

After all, Qin Wange's identity is the imperial concubine, so the contact with Fang Zhe these days has been handed over to Adai. If there is anything or something to say, Adai will let Adai pass it on. This is very convenient for both parties.

"Let him stand still. If there is any need later, I will let you contact him." Qin Wange said.

Adai only recently found out that the confinement and assassination were all set up by Qin Wange. Although she didn't know why the eldest princess did this, Adai didn't ask. She always felt that the princess had too much on her mind. It's as if the most painful place in my heart has been dug out.

"Your Majesty, you and the prince have been arranging for so long, but why didn't you let Commander Fang reveal to the emperor that the assassins were invited by the right minister and the empress? In that case, the queen's backer would not be able to be cleaned up." Is it? Now that the matter has become ambiguous, and the emperor didn't order to investigate further, isn't it wasting so much painstaking effort in vain, isn't the grievance of the empress these days also in vain?"

Adai asked puzzledly, she still felt sorry for her princess.

"Who said Situ Rui gave up investigating the assassin? You silly girl." Qin Wange laughed.

How could Adai not know how much she cared about her.It can only be said that Adai's mind is still too simple, and she can't think too far.

Seeing Qin Wange's reaction, Adai became even more puzzled: "But, didn't Commander Fang say that the emperor has closed the case at Dali Temple?"

"The Dali Temple closed the case, but it doesn't mean that Situ Rui won't let others investigate." Qin Wange said leisurely.

"Situ Rui secretly cultivated a team of hidden guards, called "Huangsha", who only obeyed Situ Rui's orders to investigate some cases that should not be announced in secret places. The most important thing is to kill for Situ Rui. The assassination case is inextricably linked with Fengqi Palace. Situ Rui has a suspicious personality, so naturally he would not entrust such an important matter to the Dali Temple for a blatant investigation. I think he must be I handed it over to Huang Sha to investigate secretly."

"It turns out that the imperial concubine had this idea. This king is a little curious. Even in Xiling, no more than five people know about the existence of Huangsha. How did the imperial concubine know so clearly?"
