Phoenix that can't smile

Chapter 753
"Ju Tu, in order to protect Baosi, you killed me. I admire your willfulness very much, but I am not an idiot. Well, if I fight you hard now, both sides will suffer. It's better for me Let me show you a piece of evidence, please be merciful." Bai Li suddenly laughed, and took out a gold ingot from his lapel.

"Bo Li, I know that even if I catch you, I won't be able to break the network of Xirong spies who are monitoring our dynasty in Luoyang. Okay, I can make this deal with you, and hand over the evidence quickly!" Ju Zhu resolutely pointed at Bo Li laughed.

"Kutu, accept the move!" Bo Li threw himself into Kua Tu's arms, and immediately used his lightness kung fu to jump out of the Jianjia Palace and disappear into the terrifying night.

Qu Tu looked at the gold ingot in his hand, and found that this year's treasury mark was engraved on it, and he immediately smiled knowingly.

The next day, at the Shuilong Shuren Palace, Shuijian was facing the court. After discussing with Cheng Rong, he quickly raised his wat to play, and reported to Shuijian the reason why Xirong Boli secretly infiltrated the Jianjia Palace to assassinate the Queen Mother last night, and took it out. took that gold ingot.

"This gold ingot is the symbol of the government, which means that the spies who colluded with the Xirong assassins into the palace to assassinate them last night are the officials of the court!" Shui Jian looked at the gold ingot in his hand and suddenly realized.

"My Majesty, Cheng Rong and Die Tu are simply spitting blood, what kind of spies, what kind of assassination, I would like to ask King Zheng, since Boli was captured last night, why did he negotiate with him? Is there any collusion?" Marquis Wei Directed at the excavation and ruthlessly reversed right and wrong.

"Marquis Wei, this gold ingot is only available to officials above the senior officials in this dynasty. Aren't you the object of suspicion?" Shui Jian asked Weihou angrily.

"Your Majesty, please protect the safety of the Empress Dowager's palace. If you want to keep the world from ridiculing, you have to announce that the Empress Dowager is suffering from paralysis and cancel the confinement of Jianjia Palace!" Qu Tu solemnly asked Shui Jiandao.

"Okay, just follow what Zheng Aiqing said, immediately lift the blockade on Jianjia Palace!" Shui Jian immediately smiled happily.

In Peony Pavilion, Concubine Min was furious when she learned that Jianjia Palace had been lifted, and she immediately called Deru and Marquis Wei to discuss it.

"Mother, the rumors we created seem to have been deciphered by Digging and Cheng Rong. Now we can only continue to make noises and insults. We must isolate the situation of Digging and Cheng Rong Mingchao in the court, and then encourage the officials to use waves to blow them away. Swallow it!" Marquis Wei offered a very vicious advice.

"Weihou, isn't this a stalker? But relying on the power of my palace, I have the ability to create rumors and ruin Cheng Rong's excavation, Ming Chao and others. Remember, you must insist on trying to frame Cheng Rong and Ju Tu Mingchao are attempting to conspire against each other, and their behavior is improper, as long as the civil and military courts despise them, then the emperor will not need to use them again!" Concubine Min said with a sly smile.

In Beijing, due to the fact that Empress Ma was framed, there have been rumors in the streets and alleys, but the despicable Ma Wumen faction deliberately created falsehoods, spread rumors everywhere, turned black and white, and turned things around. As a result, many people thought that Empress Ma He was framed and persecuted by Cheng Rong, Die Tu and Prime Minister Mingchao. The public immediately insulted him, and the city was full of storms. There were even rumors that Die Tu colluded with Marshal Boli of Xirong and secretly helped Boli escape from prison.

Cheng Rong noticed that some of the rumors in the market were aimed at him and Qutu, so he immediately made an appointment with Qutu, and comforted Qutu: "Quitu, now the traitors are using their spies to spread all over the world. Rampantly corrupting our reputation, we want to create a trend, frame up the loyal and righteous people, and then usurp the power of the court and empty the emperor, so we must not confront these traitors head-on, listen to the old man, and deal with it wholeheartedly It is a major matter for the court, relieve the emperor's worries!"

Jug Tu felt very funny about Cheng Rong's pre-prevention, but he also felt Cheng Rong's concern for him, so he couldn't help but smiled suddenly, and invited Cheng Rong back to his house for a banquet on the spot.

"Huh? De Ru, this dog slave, why is he always sneaking around by my side now? Could it be that this person is the eyes and ears of a treacherous man?" On this day, Shui Jian built the Peony Pavilion, and suddenly remembered that he had once rewarded De Ru with 300 yuan. Two gold ingots, and the courtiers, it is impossible for anyone to dare to show the gold ingots everywhere, so Shui Jian immediately guessed that De Ru, a dog slave, colluded with Bo Li and entered the palace to assassinate Bao Si, especially when Shui Jian found out about this in the Peony Pavilion. People have been deliberately following around him, as if they were asking for something, and suddenly became angry.

"Your Majesty, what is your intention?" At this time, Zhou Gui, the general of the imperial guards, knelt down and said.

"Zhou Gui, immediately lead a team of imperial guards, without further ado, arrest the eunuch De Ru, and then send him to the Punishment Division for severe torture. Remember, don't say it's my will!" Shui Jian changed his mind. After thinking about it, he hurriedly told Zhou Guidao.

In the middle of the night, De Ru, the chief manager, was writing down daily notes for the royal respect room, when suddenly a group of ferocious imperial guards rushed into De Ru's dormitory, and without any nonsense, they tied up De Ru and sent him to the Punishment Department.

"Damn it, I'm the chief steward of the palace, how dare you touch my lord!" The Punishment Department, De Ru, who had an extremely arrogant attitude, would swear wildly when he saw the interrogating officials, very rampant.

"Come on, get caught!" Zhou Gui, who was in charge of the case, smiled contemptuously, and ordered to use severe punishment. De Ru screamed in pain, his face was as white as paper. Zhou Gui immediately took out the gold ingot and began to interrogate De Ru, who was as timid as a mouse Deru had no choice but to confess truthfully, confessing all the crimes of how to frame Queen Ma and secretly colluding with Xirong Boli to enter the palace to assassinate Queen Mother Ping.

Zhou Gui took down Deru's confession very carefully, and then angrily shouted at Deru. At this moment, Shui Jian, the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, wearing a flat crown, walked in front of Deru with a look of anger.

"Your Majesty, this slave did all these things alone, and has nothing to do with others!" De Ru shivered in fright.

"De Ru, you are a dog who eats inside and out!" Shui Jian was furious, pulled out his sword, and swung De Ru into two pieces.

"Pass the decree, seal it tightly, and don't allow anyone to leak this case!" Shui Jian ordered Zhou Gui severely.

Peony Pavilion, I heard that the chief executive De Ru disappeared mysteriously. The very cunning Concubine Min has already guessed that she was interrogated secretly by the emperor Shuijian. She was afraid that De Ru would jump over the wall and bite herself out, so she quickly ordered a letter to be sent to Marquis Wei, and the collusion uncle All the palace people who entered the palace were secretly executed.

Just when Concubine Min was very timid, Marquis Wei began to instigate scholar-bureaucrats in the capital to attack Qutu and Cheng Rong, as well as Prime Minister Mingchao, insulting Qutu for messing up the court and taking sole control of the military. Ministers of Civil and Military Affairs ambushed outside the Hall of Shuilong Shuren. As soon as the excavator stepped into the Jinshui Bridge, they mobilized and besieged, sternly insulting. Among the civil and military officials, a black-clothed assassin suddenly infiltrated, brandishing a sharp knife at the vital point of the excavation. Attacking swiftly, Qu Tu was in a hurry. At this critical moment, a flying arrow pierced the assassin's leg, shooting the assassin to the ground and howling.

Everyone was startled and looked at the palace wall one after another. They found a beautiful woman with cloudy temples on the palace wall, like a goddess descending to earth, bowing to the full moon, ready to shoot down the assassin. Of course, she only had one name, that is, Empress Dowager Baosi.

"The empress dowager is holy!" At this time, Cheng Rong, Ming Chao, An Tong and other ministers had rushed over, shouting long live to the palace wall.

"It's the opposite. How dare you arrange an assassin to assassinate an important court official in the Shuilong Shuren Hall. Come, bring that dog assassin to me!" The furious Shui Jian sat on the dragon chair and raged at the officials. At that time, Zhou Gui had already escorted the assassin to kneel under Dan Chi, and everyone observed him together, and found that the assassin was Zhu Gui, the envoy of Yue King Xue Ju.

"Xue Ju, son, dare to instigate rumors in the capital, frame the queen, come here, put this person in the prison of the Criminal Ministry, and then issue an order to the Yue Kingdom, ordering Xue Ju to go to Beijing to plead guilty!" The furious Shui Jian loudly reprimanded.

Peony Pavilion, I heard that it was lucky to pass the responsibility to someone else, and the vicious Concubine Min suddenly showed a flattering fox smile from the corner of her mouth, and the bright red rouge was very ferocious on her vermilion lips.

"Concubine Min, this bitch, is really hateful!" Empress Ma, who was teaching the prince to read in Kunning Palace, couldn't help being filled with righteous indignation when she learned that Shuilong Shuren Palace had captured Xue Ju's envoy.

"Queen, this traitorous concubine, Concubine Min, is really devoid of conscience. She not only designed to frame you, Empress, and made you almost disabled, but also despicably spread rumors to tarnish the reputation of important ministers. What a poisonous snake!" She was also tortured by Concubine Min Concubine Liu, who was being persecuted, covered her wounds and burst into tears.

"Concubine Liu, don't cry, if the imperial concubine is not eliminated, there will be no peace in the Great Zhou Dynasty!" Empress Ma said angrily.

After lowering his court, Cheng Rong was on the street and noticed a strange person walking around beside him, so he immediately pulled back the bay red horse that was digging.
