Chapter 403: The Suzaku Gate Bloody Case (2)


Chapter 402 Suzaku Gate Bloody Case 2 The eunuch sent out by Yu Chaoen to summon intercepted Kong Sheng halfway.

Kong Sheng learned that the Emperor Li Longji had entered the palace in the emperor's imperial study, and the emperor sent someone to summon him into the palace to question, and his heart was secretly awe-inspiring.

At this point, he suddenly had a premonition that there must be a conspiracy behind this matter, and the conspiracy may not be aimed at Chen Xuanli or Gao Lishi, let alone Emperor Li Longji, because Emperor Taishang is the father of the current emperor after all, as long as Li Longji gives up competing with Li Heng for the throne, even if Li Longji does something too much, Li Heng can endure it.

Besides, the old emperor didn't do anything now, nothing more than drinking and listening to songs and dances, catching up with a few old ministers, liking to be in the limelight, haunting the Changqing Tower to listen to the people's mountain shouts, and satisfying vanity, that's all.

This did not cause a strong backlash from the emperor.

Kong Sheng galloped to the door of the emperor's imperial study in the Daming Palace, but met the crown prince Li Yu, who heard the news, as well as Princess Yuzhen, the general Guo Yingyi, and Yan Zhenqing, the secretary of the criminal department, and a group of people loyal to the old emperor.

When Li Yu got the report, his first reaction was that there was an internal strife between the emperor and the emperor, and a palace coup was about to happen.

Therefore, Li Yu did not dare to slack off, and immediately brought more than 100 people into the palace with the East Palace Guard.

When I saw Cheng Yuanzhen in the Daming Palace, I understood a rough idea and was secretly relieved.

Li Yu was also worried that the Emperor Taishang would not give up the throne willingly, and there were many people in the court who had the heart of supporting the old emperor and restoring, such as Yuzhen.

With Yuzhen's prodding, the old emperor was hot-headed and didn't know what he would do.

Li Yu looked at Kong Sheng coldly on the side, but Princess Yuzhen took the lead and walked over quickly to block Kong Sheng's way, and scolded angrily: "Kong Sheng, you are so bold, you dare to order Shenlongwei to falsely transmit the holy decree to rush into Xingqing Palace and disturb the Emperor Taishang, do you know that this is a serious crime of raiding the family and exterminating the clan."

Kong Sheng was taken aback, took a deep breath, looked at Princess Yuzhen with a calm expression and said: "Your Royal Highness Yuzhen, the lower officials have never sent anyone to rush into Xingqing Palace, where did you start with this?"

Princess Yuzhen said sharply: "Kong Sheng, so many people in Xingqing Palace witnessed it in person, Shenlongwei rushed into Xingqing Palace with a false holy decree, disturbed the Emperor Taishang, and forcibly took away more than 100 of the Emperor's BMWs, there are all the human and material evidence, you can still quibble."

Kong Sheng finally understood that Chen Xuanli's armor forced the palace really had something inside.

Shenlongwei rushed into Xingqing Palace under the false decree and took away more than 100 horses of the old emperor, which was definitely a frame-up by Chi Guoguo Kong Sheng smiled faintly: "Your Royal Highness Yuzhen, what is the truth of this matter, it still needs to be investigated, please rest assured, if it is confirmed that it was Kong Mou's master Shenlongwei in the future, there is no need for His Majesty to deal with it, Kong Sheng will apologize to the Emperor for his own crimes." ” After speaking, Kong Sheng bypassed Princess Yuzhen and strode into the imperial study.

In the imperial study, Kong Sheng looked calm and calm, and slowly saluted the old emperor and the emperor: "Minister Kong Sheng, meet Your Majesty, Emperor Taishang" The emperor frowned and asked: "Kong Sheng, the Xingqing Palace belongs to the witnesses, dozens of Shenlongwei people pretended to pass the holy decree and held the Shenlongwei token, rushed into the Xingqing Palace, and took away more than 100 BMW horses of the Emperor Taishang, what is the matter, you are honest, if you have the slightest concealment, Hugh will turn your face and be ruthless."

Kong Sheng said solemnly: "Your Majesty, the minister is exercising the forbidden army outside the city today, and the minister can swear to the sky, and he will never lead the Shenlongwei to offend the Emperor Taishang As for what happened in Xingqing Palace, the minister thought that it should be investigated and dealt with immediately, the sooner the better."

"Your Majesty, there is no reason for the minister to be disrespectful to the Emperor, let alone do such an ignorant and stupid thing.

There must be a secret in this matter, please give your majesty a day to the minister, let the minister investigate the truth immediately, if it is finally found out that it is really Shenlongwei, even if the minister does not know, it is also difficult to escape the guilt, the minister will definitely apologize to the emperor in person, let the emperor deal with it" Li Heng looked at the old emperor.

The corners of the old emperor's mouth twitched, in fact, the old emperor calmed down now, and also realized that someone might be fanning the flames behind his back and deliberately stirring up trouble.

Kong Sheng is an important minister of the imperial court, controlling the forbidden army and the Shenlong Guard, and sometimes represents the emperor, how could he do such a thing, and he did it so openly and arrogantly Li Heng saw that the old emperor did not object, so he withdrew his gaze.

Li Heng let out a sigh of relief, nodded slowly, and said, "Kong Sheng, I don't expect you to have the courage to do so, there will be wicked people behind the scenes to frame you in this matter."

Kong Sheng, as you said, I will give you one day to find out the truth, and if you can't give me and the Emperor Taishang an explanation after one day, you will die to apologize."

Kong Sheng was awe-inspiring: "The ministers obey the order" Kong Sheng turned around to leave the imperial study, and the old emperor Li Longji suddenly interjected: "Kong Sheng, where are Chen Xuanli and the others?"

Kong Sheng bowed to Li Longji: "Back to the emperor's words, Chen Xuanli led people to force the palace, disturbed the palace ban, no matter what the reason, they all committed serious crimes, the minister has ordered someone to detain them in the Shenlongwei Prison, once the truth is found, the minister will hand them over to Yousi for disposal." ” Li Longji said angrily: "Chen Xuanli has the behavior of leading people to rush to the palace for the sake of me, there are extenuating circumstances, there is a reason for the incident, I order you to release Chen Xuanli and my guards immediately In addition, for the dead and injured guards, the court should also be generously compensated." ” Kong Sheng's expression remained unchanged, and he was neither humble nor arrogant: "Emperor Taishang, Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the so-called Shenlongwei crashing into Xingqing Palace and capturing horses and Chen Xuanli taking armor to storm the palace are completely different things.

Moreover, Chen Xuanli and others are important witnesses to this incident, and the minister cannot be released until the truth is known. ” "Please rest assured that the emperor will treat Chen Xuanli and others well and cooperate with the investigation.

Once the truth is ascertained, if His Majesty issues an edict to pardon his crimes, the minister will personally send General Chen and others back to Xingqing Palace.

Kong Sheng said and cast a glance at the emperor.

Emperor Li Heng smiled reluctantly: "If it is found out that this matter has nothing to do with Chen Xuanli, I will naturally issue an edict to pardon him for the crime of forcing the palace with armor, and my father can rest assured." ” The old emperor snorted coldly, and had to say a few words, Gao Lishi secretly shook the old emperor's green hand when he leaned down to help the old emperor add tea, and the old emperor slowly closed his mouth, which was regarded as acquiescence.

The old emperor knew that today's matter could only end here.

Anyway, the emperor will investigate, and this matter will alarm the government and the opposition, and it is impossible not to stop it.

As long as the emperor can give a satisfactory answer in the future, as for the lives of Chen Xuanli and others, the old emperor believes that whether it is the emperor or Kong Sheng, it is impossible to move easily.

Seeing that Kong Sheng left the imperial study safe and sound, and was not dismissed from office or even questioned, Yuzhen and the others were a little angry.

But Kong Sheng came and went in a hurry, and when they reacted and wanted to step forward to ask a few questions, Kong Sheng had already turned over and galloped away.

On the way out of the palace, Kong Sheng thought about it again and again, and felt that the key to the problem was two points: first, Shenlongwei, is there really a scum in Shenlongwei who was instructed to commit such an earth-shattering evil act, or someone pretending to be pretending to be, and must be investigated immediately; The second is the more than 100 horses that were taken away from the old emperor Xingqing Palace, where these horses went, it is impossible to disappear for no reason.

Starting from these two points, you will soon be able to find out the real culprit.

Kong Sheng galloped out of Daming Palace on horseback, and it was already evening.

But the matter is urgent, the sooner the investigation is started, the greater the possibility of finding out the truth, if this night is delayed, tomorrow I don't know what the situation is.

Kong Sheng did not return to the house, and went directly to the Shenlongwei Yamen.

As night fell, Kong Sheng ordered the forbidden army to send a large number of people to search all over the city, but it was not allowed to disturb the people, and it was necessary to find out the whereabouts of more than 100 horses belonging to Xingqing Palace.

On the one hand, he ordered Nangong Wang to gather all the personnel of the Shenlongwei and Yamen civil official systems according to the roster, and began to work on them one by one.

Palace of Tranquility.

Empress Zhang retreated from the palace maids and eunuchs around her, and there were only Zhu Huiguang and her son Dingwang Li Tong behind her.

Empress Zhang looked up at the deep palace and the heavy night, her brows tightened, and she said softly: "Glow, this matter is also strange.

The palace didn't believe that Kong Sheng would do such a thing, and ordered the god dragon Wei Minghuo to break into the Xingqing Palace and take the horse from the emperor, which was not something Kong Sheng could do.

Behind this, there must be someone fanning the flames, but this kind of conspiracy is so stupid that the world can see through it at a glance. ” Zhu Huiguang smiled: "Niangniang, the slave also thinks that something is wrong.

It's just that the slave maid can't think of who has the courage to make such a bad move, playing with His Majesty, the Emperor Taishang and Kong Sheng in the palm of his hand, but it's amazing, once the truth is found out, he will die without a place to be buried. ” Li Tong suddenly said softly on the side: "Queen Mother, my son thinks that the person behind the scenes actually knows that it is not difficult to see through this matter at a glance, but his real purpose is to fan the flames to provoke the Emperor Taishang and his father to disagree, and then point the finger at General Kong, this person is prepared, and the plan is far-reaching, I am afraid it is not so easy to find out, or, it is another headless case that will not be solved in the end, just like in the palace at the beginning" Li Tong wanted to speak and stopped.

Empress Zhang's eyes stared: "Dong'er, what you are talking about is the one over there" Empress Zhang turned her head to look in the direction of the East Palace.

In the deep night, the palace of the East Palace is faintly in sight, and from this angle, the Tang Deep Palace is brightly lit, which is very different from the past.

According to the convention, the lights in the palace had already been turned off at this time, and it fell into darkness and silence.

But today, because of the turmoil outside the Suzaku Gate, which is similar to the palace change, the air inside and outside the palace has become tense, and all the palaces can't sleep at night.

Kong Sheng ordered the forbidden army and the Shenlong Guard to strengthen the blockade of the palace and guards, and adopted a semi-public curfew in the city.

At this sensitive moment, no one will easily go out to cause suspicion and get into trouble, including many Chang'an magnates.

This night is destined to be a very unusual night. oshow7 t1706231537:
