Their Lucky Star Was Transmigrated! Chapter 613: Bring the blame
"What did you say?"
Hearing the words of Captain Yulin Wei, Emperor Yongping's expression instantly became very sharp.
Doesn't have much murderous intent?
Without killing intent, how did his mother die?
His mother did not die with one arrow, but with three arrows.
If there is no deep hatred, why would she be so cruel to her mother?
"Holy!"
The eldest princess saw that Emperor Yongping obviously wanted to take out the anger of the Yulin Guard Captain, so she hurriedly spoke up and stopped Emperor Yongping who wanted to be angry.
"If this finding is true, then, at least one thing can be confirmed. The purpose of the empress dowager is very clear!"
After stopping Emperor Yongping, the eldest princess waved to the captain of the Yu Linwei and said, "You should step back first, and continue to lead people to track down the assassin's clues!"
"Yes!"
"I will retire!"
This commander of Yulin Wei is not stupid either. When Emperor Yongping is angry, he can feel it. And what the eldest princess means to stop Yongping Emperor, he is also clear.
At this moment, he felt more grateful to the eldest princess in his heart.
Coincidentally, this gratitude is exactly what the eldest princess wanted.
Don't look at the eldest princess, who has mastered the Imperial City Division under the trust of Emperor Yongping, and has a certain military power in her hands. But if the eldest princess wants to go further, then she must take down the thirty-six guards of the North and South Second Battalion.
Among the thirty-six guards of the North and South Second Battalion, the most important is the Yulin guard.
The Yulin Guard guards the imperial city.
Most of the children are from extraordinary backgrounds.
If you can master Yu Linwei, the prestige of the eldest princess in the court is bound to increase to a terrifying level.
Emperor Yongping was not aware of anything wrong with his actions, nor was he aware of the eldest princess' calculus.
Even up to this moment, Emperor Yongping is still grateful to the eldest princess.
"Aunt, is it really possible that King Yan did this?"
"I still have some doubts!"
Emperor Yongping really doesn't believe in the judgment of the eldest princess.
After all, when King Yan brought troops into the palace, if he wanted to avenge his parents, he could have done it at the time, so why wait until now?
"Your Highness, if it was before, I would be a little suspicious."
"But the news brought back by the captain of Yu Linwei just now made the minister firm up his judgment."
"Even if King Yan did not do this, King Yan was definitely an insider."
"The defense layout in the palace is much tighter than in previous years. However, the killer entered the palace easily, and even found the Queen Mother's bedroom without any delay."
"It can be seen that this person must be very familiar with the palace."
The eldest princess has now made up her mind, and must put this charge on the head of King Yan.
Only in this way can she be completely free from future troubles.
The King of Yan is devoted to love and righteousness.
If she takes action against Emperor Yongping, then King Yan is likely to jump out and help Emperor Yongping. You must know that although King Yan's parents were murdered by the late emperor, King Yan and Emperor Yongping grew up together, and this brotherhood is always there.
Of course, it is also possible that King Yan will not take action.
But even if it is possible, the eldest princess will be completely strangled to him.
"Aunt, even your analysis is correct, but why must it be King Yan?"
"There are many people who are familiar with the palace, but they may not be King Yan."
"Aunt, don't talk about this matter. If there is no solid evidence that the assassin is related to King Yan, I don't believe that this is what King Yan did!"
Even if the eldest princess is right, Emperor Yongping still doesn't believe that this is what King Yan did. He did have many shortcomings as an emperor, and he was very jealous of King Yan for a time, but his brotherhood to King Yan was always there.
Speaking of which, Emperor Yongping is really contradictory.
On the one hand, he was afraid that King Yan was better and more popular than him, and worried that King Yan might replace him on the throne.
On the other hand, Emperor Yongping felt that King Yan was his brother, and their brotherhood was more important than anything else.
Under the influence of such a mentality, Emperor Yongping's attitude towards King Yan seemed a little nervous.
When the eldest princess heard the words of Emperor Yongping, her expression was stunned for a moment, but soon, she returned to normal, and she respectfully responded to Emperor Yongping's explanation.
It's just that she promised well on the lips, but Eldest Princess had other thoughts in her heart, and her desire to get rid of King Yan became more intense in her heart.
Under the premise of the Queen Mother being killed, and under the premise that King Yan has a great possibility according to her description, Emperor Yongping can still defend and maintain basic trust in King Yan, which undoubtedly proves the great The correctness of the dread of the eldest princess.
Emperor Yongping bet that King Yan had such trust, so King Yan must have the same for Emperor Yongping.
Out of the palace, the eldest princess quickly returned to Dingguo Gongfu.
Not long after the eldest princess returned to the Dingguo mansion, Captain Yulin Wei, who had previously reported the latest discovery to Emperor Yongping in Qiantian Palace, came to ask for an interview.
"Please come in!"
The eldest princess pondered for a while, and then asked the female guard beside her to clear the captain of the Yulin guard.
"The last general, Chi Jun, sees Her Royal Highness the First Princess!"
"You don't need to be polite, Captain Chi, please take a seat!"
The eldest princess looks like a corporal, and asks the people around her to prepare chairs.
"Just stand at the end!"
Chi Jun echoed back quickly. He came to see the eldest princess to express his gratitude. At the same time, he also came to report the latest discovery he did not report to the eldest princess.
"His Royal Highness Princess, the last commander found this when he was tracking the assassin's whereabouts!"
Chi Jun took out a small object from his arms, bowed slightly, raised his hands, and passed it to the eldest princess through the female guard beside the eldest princess.
"What is this?"
The eldest princess frowned slightly as she looked at the diamond-shaped object presented by Chi Jun. It looked like a dagger, but it was different from a dagger.
"Back to Your Highness, this thing is called Kuwu, and it is a hidden weapon commonly used by the ronin of the Japanese country!"
Chi Jun responded in a low voice.
"You mean that the assassin who killed the Queen Mother was a Japanese ronin?"
When the eldest princess heard Chi Jun's words, her expression changed.
She wanted to take this opportunity to get rid of King Yan because King Yan might become an obstacle for her to ascend to the position of the Ninety-Five. But if the person who assassinated the Queen Mother was a Japanese, then this matter has to be considered separately.
She really wants to sit on the highest throne.
She also doesn't mind using all kinds of conspiracy calculations.
But there is one thing, that is, this is an internal matter of the Tang Dynasty, and it is not something that any outsider can mix. Not to mention the Japanese in the small land of the East, even if they are as powerful as the northern barbarians, it is not enough.
The Great Tang she wants must be a powerful Great Tang, not a Great Tang that has been brought into trouble by foreign enemies.
"Back to Your Highness, I will not be able to calm down whether the assassin is a Japanese or not, but one thing is certain, this Kunai is definitely owned by a Japanese, and the one who created it is also a Japanese!"
"This matter, this palace knows!"
"Xiaowei Chi, later, you bring this thing into the palace to meet the Holy Master, and tell the Holy Master about your findings."
"The last general takes orders!"
Chi Jun responded respectfully, and immediately said goodbye to the eldest princess.
Soon, Chi Jun turned back to the palace and informed Emperor Yongping of his findings.
"I knew it, I knew it!"
After listening to Chi Jun's judgment report, Emperor Yongping immediately assumed that he had seen through everything. "You did a good job, step back, and remember to continue to track down the whereabouts at this moment!"
"Follow my orders!"
Chi Jun agreed and left.
After Chi Jun left, Emperor Yongping immediately sent the servants of the Temple of Heaven to send out an edict, summoning the Wenwu of the Manchu Dynasty and the nobles of Beijing to come to the Temple of Heaven to discuss matters.
The queen mother was assassinated, and the assassin escaped.
The atmosphere in the capital is really not peaceful, and it is not an exaggeration to say that everyone is in danger.
When Emperor Yongping asked his servants to convene the ministers to discuss matters, everyone ran fast. At this juncture, as long as you are not a fool, you will understand that if you neglect it, you will never have good fruit to eat.
In less than half an hour, the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, the royal family, and the nobles in Beijing gathered in the Temple of Heaven.
The huge Qiantian Temple was instantly crowded.
Everyone looked solemn, with expressions of deep sorrow.
On the dragon chair in the Temple of Heaven, Emperor Yongping sat expressionlessly, his eyes swept across everyone's faces over and over again, making the atmosphere of the Temple of Heaven even heavier.
At this time, the eldest princess was not eligible to participate.
But since she was arranged by Emperor Yongping to be in charge of the Imperial City Division, when such court affairs are discussed, as long as the eldest princess wants to come, she can be present.
At this time, the eldest princess appeared in the Qiantian Temple, which can be said to have a very good reason.
After all, the eldest princess is going to call the queen mother sister-in-law.
Compared to Prince Yu, Prince Gong and other royal princes, the eldest princess is the sister of the late emperor. Therefore, the queen mother is naturally the sister-in-law of the eldest princess.
"After investigation by Yulin Wei, the thief who murdered the Queen Mother was a Japanese!"
"Now, the thief has escaped from the palace. Dear gentlemen, do you have any advice?"
Emperor Yongping opened his mouth, but his eyes fell on the face of King Yu Zongling of the Zongren Mansion.
King Yu was stared at by Emperor Yongping, so he could only take the initiative to speak, and said, "Your Majesty, this minister thinks that since the assassin's origin has been determined, then the nine families of assassins should be exterminated!"
"The Japanese, the people who have been transformed into foreigners, came to my Tang Dynasty to study, but they were not grateful. The minister thought that this country should be destroyed, and its clan should be destroyed!"
"The Japanese are far away from the Tang Dynasty and live on small islands overseas. How can I destroy the Tang Dynasty?"
Emperor Yongping was very satisfied after hearing what King Yu had to say. The moment he knew that the killer was a Japanese, he had the idea of destroying the Japanese.
You kill my mother, and I kill your clan.
But as an emperor, Emperor Yongping still wants to be named behind his back. The words of this genocide must not come out of his mouth. It must be told by someone else, and this person will be the bearer of infamy.
And who is the most suitable person to carry the infamy?
Thinking about it, Emperor Yongping took aim at King Yu.
Why the King of Honor?
There are two reasons!
First, King Yu is the Zong Ling of the clan's mansion. His position in the Tang Dynasty is second only to Emperor Yongping. Even many members of the training team and the royal family have more fear of King Yu than him. .
This means that if King Yu has the will to change his mind, it is really possible to achieve something.
Second, King Yu's weight is heavy enough.
Ordinary people say these words, the weight is not enough, and it is easy to be blocked by those censors who cherish feathers.
But King Yu is different.
As the Zongling of the Zongren's House, his position in the Tang Dynasty is second only to the emperor. The emperor needs to cherish his reputation and face, but Yuwang does not need to worry about this in many cases.
"Your Majesty, what King Yu said is wrong!"
Got it!
Just as Emperor Yongping was worried, after King Yu said the words of extermination of the country and the family, a censor jumped out immediately.
"Injustice has its head, and debt has its owner!"
"Even if the Empress Dowager was harmed by the Japanese, but because of this, the war of revival and destruction of the country is going to be fought. This minister thinks that this is a breach of benevolence and righteousness, and please think twice about it!"
"Your Highness, please think twice!"
As soon as a censor speaks, more censors follow.
Above the court, if anyone is the most unpleasant and most difficult to deal with, it is definitely this group of censors. Among these people, there may be some people who really care about the court and the country, but more people are against it purely for the sake of opposition, for their reputation, let alone for the sake of opposition, they can still fight for the sake of impeachment. Impeach.
They impeached high-ranking officials in the court, not for the sake of justice, but purely to climb up, to gain fame, and to quickly spread their names around the world.
In many cases, these censors can easily occupy the commanding heights of morality.
For this reason, Emperor Yongping really despised these censors.
But he also understood that he couldn't have fired all these censors.
These censors are indeed annoying, but without the censors to frighten these civil servants and generals in the court, the emperor alone would not be able to control these civil servants and generals.
After all, a person's energy and intelligence are limited.
How does the emperor control the court?
In a word, that is to pull one faction and fight another faction.
If these people in the courtroom fight, the cranes and mussels fight, and the fisherman can gain.
"Your Majesty, this minister thinks that this matter must destroy the country and the family!"
King Yu was targeted by Emperor Yongping, only that he could not give up halfway.
Don't look at him as a sectarian, but in this Tang Dynasty, the emperor is the one who really controls everything. The decree of his clan's mansion, as long as the emperor's will, can become the past tense.
And most importantly, King Yu is actually very ambitious.
He's happy with what he has now and doesn't want to go any further. Of course, King Yu didn't want to step back, he just wanted to keep his current position and come to the end of a lifetime of wealth and honor.
"The Japanese are blessed by my Tang Dynasty, but they are not grateful!"
"Also, the Japanese, the country of small balls, dared to plot to assassinate my Great Tang Empress Dowager. If you don't punish me severely, who would take my Great Tang seriously in this small country?"
"It has been said since ancient times that barbarians are fearful of power but not of virtue!"
"The Tang Dynasty has been established for a hundred years, and it is too kind to the surrounding small countries. Now, it is time for me, the Tang Dynasty, to shine a bright edge."
"A few days ago, the savages in the northern mountains dared to invade my Tang Dynasty territory and slaughter my Tang people."
King Yu looked indignant and looked at the censors fiercely, "You, scholars, for the so-called benevolence and righteousness, you are supported by the people of the Tang Dynasty, but you don't think about the people of the Tang Dynasty. , eat the king's salary, can't divide the king's worries, ask yourself, don't you feel ashamed?"
