The Princess of the Fairy Phoenix Road

Chapter 1003: Luring the Snake Out of the Hole, Using the Plan (3)
"The kitchen here and all their food are taken care of by their own people. Naturally, there are ghosts among their own people." Jiang Liudao, thinking about the whole story of today's incident, felt more and more depressed, "But But the deputy envoy just refused to let go, and insisted on leaving Beijing immediately, returning to Nanhua to report the matter to the Emperor of Nanhua."

When Chu Xunyang heard this, he couldn't help laughing, and said, "Just say it if you're afraid of death, why make such a clumsy excuse?"

It is impossible for Chu Qifeng to do this matter. It is even clear at a glance that it has nothing to do with their Western Yue royal family. In this way, it is completely unreasonable to expose the spine to be poked by others.Wouldn't the resumption of war under such circumstances force the people of the world to rebel?
That Liu Shilang in Nanhua will not fail to understand this truth, but——

The people behind the scenes even dared to touch Ge Xiang. If the trouble here still cannot be provoked, he might be the next one.

It's just for self-protection, it's understandable for him to speak so forcefully and unreasonably.

Chu Xunyang stopped talking and just stared at the reactions of the people in the hall.

The arguments between Yao Guangtai and Liu Shilang were red-faced, and they refused to give in to each other. Seeing that they were about to roll up their sleeves if it continued, Chu Qifeng, who was sitting in the first place, suddenly went uncharacteristically and slammed into the table.

There was so much movement at that moment that all the table decorations on the shaking table made a chaotic sound of ping-pong.

"Your Highness!" Yao Guangtai was startled, hurriedly stopped talking, bowed back in front of his chair, and stood with his hands down.

Chu Qifeng looked at Liu Shilang expressionlessly, with a cold smile on his lips, and said in a cool tone: "Master Shilang, have you vented all the grievances in your chest?"

What he said was like accusing Liu Shilang of acting wild.

Liu Shilang's expression was extremely ugly, he frowned and said, "Your Highness—"

Chu Qifeng didn't give him a chance to speak at all, and walked up to him, looked at him and said, "Ge Shangshu died unexpectedly, you want to seek justice for him, and I can understand you if you are emotional and rude, but It is better for you to stop. Now that all the witnesses and evidences are here, even if Ge Shangshu was poisoned when he met with Ben Gong in the afternoon, so what? Do you think the poison was sitting with him? Ben Gong, who drinks tea, made it himself?"

Liu Shilang didn't dare to say such words even if he had ten thousand courage, he just moved his lips in a murmur.

Chu Qifeng's eyes were cold, and he didn't prepare for him to take the blame, so he said directly: "The tea at that time was also served after brewing by your own people. Didn't you check it before sending it to Mr. Shangshu for drinking? The one who came to clean up afterward was also Your own people, even if the problem is indeed caused by that cup of tea, after all, your people have handled a lot. If you want to find the murderer, you have to interrogate them one by one. I am willing to sit here in the middle of the night today and listen to your nonsense, right? I understand how you feel after encountering such a thing in a foreign land, it's not because of a guilty conscience."

The bowl of tea that Ge Shangshu drank in the afternoon was indeed handled by their own people. Apart from sitting and drinking with Chu Qifeng, he really couldn't find any signs that it was related to the West Yue people.

Liu Shilang also knew that what he said was totally untenable, with an embarrassed and uneasy expression on his face, but he was unwilling to sit still, so he could only calm down and said: "But Your Highness, this trip to West Vietnam, I will wait for you Master Shangshu is always looking forward to it, and now he has suffered a tragic accident and died in an unknown way, this responsibility cannot be shouldered by a lowly post, and—”

He said for a while, quietly observed Chu Qifeng's face from the corner of his eye, and then he had the courage to say: "This matter--I'm afraid His Majesty will definitely ask about it, but at this time, you want to Detain low-ranking people here?"

He moved out to Emperor Chongming to oppress others, but he couldn't wait to leave this ghostly place.

A mocking light flashed in Chu Qifeng's eyes, without the slightest sign of wavering.

Liu Shilang was surprised for a moment, and the next moment, he nodded coldly and said: "Yes! There is nothing wrong with this!"

After all, without waiting for Liu Shilang to react, he staggered away from him and walked over. He glanced coldly at Yao Guangtai and the others, and said, "Let's go! What are you still doing here?"

If he didn't want to ban this marriage, he wouldn't touch any of the people from Nanhua.

"Yes!" Yao Guangtai and the others were shocked, and hurriedly got up and followed him out.

Liu Shilang didn't react all the time, Chu Qifeng came out of the hall, stopped at the gate, glanced back, and ordered to the guard guarding the gate: "Pass on the order of the palace, and then go to Jiucheng Bingmasi Send two thousand more soldiers and horses to guard this post house from the outside. No one is allowed to enter or leave, and the people inside are not allowed to have any news communication with the outside world. I will order their food and drink. The imperial cook here is ready and sent here, whoever dares to violate the rules and disobey my order will be dealt with as the murderer who poisoned Ge Shangshu and reported to the Nanhua court."

His words are cold and ruthless, every word is resounding, knocking on people's hearts.

Liu Shilang's heart trembled when he heard this, and when he saw that he was about to leave, he hurriedly chased after him regardless, and said with a panicked expression: "Your Highness, what do you mean? We are envoys sent by Nanhua, this is Gui Is it the country's way of hospitality?"

"In an extraordinary period, it is natural to take some extraordinary measures." Chu Qifeng said, standing in the night wind with his hands behind his back, his face as motionless as a mountain, "I will send a letter of divorce on my behalf, and I will send it to His Majesty the Emperor of Nanhua immediately to explain to him The whole story of this matter, and asked his opinion. I have always believed that you came this time with [-]% goodwill. Naturally, this intention cannot be let down. Before the reply letter from the Lord of Nanhua is sent, please Liu Shilang, you stay in this post house with peace of mind and wait for the good news."

"Your Highness, do you really insist on this?" Liu Shilang couldn't help but sullen when he saw that he was advised not to move, "Ge Shangshu was not an unknown person, no matter what, it is indisputable that he died in your capital city of Nanhua If there is no satisfactory solution to this matter, His Majesty the Emperor will definitely pursue it."

No matter how we deal with the aftermath of this matter, it is an indisputable fact that the first-rank official of Nanhua died unexpectedly.

In such a situation, no matter what, the intention of the two countries to marry should be hindered to a certain extent.

Liu Shilang is not easy to say clearly, but the meaning implied in the words is very obvious.

"Your Majesty has to say everything, isn't it?" Chu Qifeng sneered disapprovingly, looked around at the same time, and said coolly: "Or Liu Shilang, you can take advantage of this period of time without official duties." If you want to do it, ask your followers one by one in the posthouse, and if you can find the real culprit who poisoned Lord Shangshu as soon as possible, maybe this palace can consider lifting the restraint for you earlier."
