Xiao Tianyao came back very low-key, almost no one knew about his arrival, not even the emperor's secret agents found the news, but...
When he left, he was not low-key at all. Taking Lin Chujiu out of the city to pay homage to Mrs. Meng was definitely high-profile and arrogant.
The emperor wanted to pretend he didn't know, at least until the war between Dongwen and Beili was over, the emperor didn't want to trouble Xiao Tianyao at all, but...
The emperor does not want to, does not mean that others do not want.
On the third day after Xiao Tianyao left, the imperial censor impeached him for disregarding military discipline, disobeying the imperial decree, and returning to Beijing without permission!
This is a serious crime. It is not a problem to put Xiao Tianyao in prison on this charge, but the premise is that if Xiao Tianyao is locked up, who will go to the front line to fight
Which bastard is impeaching Xiao Tianyao at this time
Is there any wink
He didn't ask people to move yesterday, so he said he didn't want to move Xiao Tianyao now
You can't even see through this, how can you be an official
The emperor glared at Shang Zhezi's person, and found that Shang Zhezi's Lord Zhu was not from any faction at all, just a stubborn old man, and immediately understood that this old man was being used by others.
The emperor sighed secretly in his heart, but asked solemnly: "Is what Master Zhu said true? Can you check it out? You must know that slander is a serious crime."
The emperor's words are full of hints, and anyone with a little brain should back away at this time, but Master Zhu doesn't.
Master Zhu, who insisted on justice, said with justice: "The sentences made by the minister are true. The emperor can ask the officers and soldiers guarding the city to ask questions, and he can also ask the tomb guards of the Meng family to ask questions. King Xiao not only returned to the capital, but also brought with him. Princess Xiao went out of the city to pay homage to Mrs. Meng." Cheng
The cemetery outside is not only the cemetery of the Meng family, and the people who see Xiao Tianyao are naturally not only the cemetery guards of the Meng family.
The emperor was greeted by the ignorant Zhu Dazhi, and he did not speak, but glanced at Lin Xiang who was standing in the front row, Lin Xiangqi noticed something, stepped forward, and said, "Master Zhu, you said that King Xiao appeared in the capital this morning? When did he come back? Why is there no record of his entering the city?"
"Xiaoguan doesn't know when Lord Xiao came back. But Xiaguan knows that if Lord Xiao doesn't want people to know that he has returned to Beijing, he will definitely not leave a record of entering the city." Master Zhu said calmly.
Since he dared to impeach King Xiao, there must be evidence.
"Oh... Since the lord doesn't want people to know that he has returned to Beijing, how can he go out of the city openly and appear in the cemetery outside the city? Does the lord not know the danger of returning to Beijing privately?" Waiting for Master Zhu to answer, he added: "Master Zhu, the imperial court only received news from the front line yesterday that the lord encountered an assassin on the way and was seriously injured. Calculate the distance, the lord is now thousands of miles away in Yanzhou City, don't say The prince is injured, and even if he is not injured, he cannot fly to the capital within two days."
"This... this..." Master Zhu dared not say, the injured person may be a substitute. This kind of thing without evidence, he wants to say it, but he has to be responsible.
However, Lin Xiang refused to let him go, and continued: "Master Zhu, there are 30,000 soldiers protecting the prince, and they saw with their own eyes that the prince was injured. The accompanying imperial doctor also reported the report, saying that although the prince was not injured, he was It is not appropriate to hurry, but for the sake of the front-line battle, the lord insists on rushing to the front line day and night regardless of the injury. The lord is outside, in order to protect Dongwen from death, you are here saying that the lord sneaked back to Beijing, what is your intention?"
Lin Xiang is the emperor's confidant. As soon as he opened his mouth, everyone understood what the emperor meant. Whether they knew it or not, someone immediately came out to support Lin Xiang, and he just portrayed Xiao Tianyao as a national hero who sacrificed himself in war. Still can't say anything...
In the face of the attack of the ministers, Lord Zhu was defeated, and was beaten by the emperor thirty times. He went home and thought about it.
On the bright side, the emperor beat Master Zhu because Master Zhu made a false accusation, but in fact, only the emperor himself knows.
After going down to court, the emperor summoned Zhou Mi, the leader of the spies, and the first thing he did was to ask him to find out who took advantage of Lord Zhu.
Xiao Tianyao's return was such a big deal, how could the emperor not know that he was holding back because he wanted to wait for the end of this battle to settle accounts in the autumn, but now
Once again let people sabotage his plan!
The emperor did not kill Lord Zhu, it was already a favor!
Xu Shi went out for a walk. After Lin Chujiu came back, he felt much better, at least not like the previous two days, who had been lying in bed and couldn't get out of bed.
Lin Chujiu was about to wait for her health to recover. She quietly went out of the city to see Meng Xiuyuan's injury. How is his recovery
It's been almost half a month, and if Meng Xiuyuan's wound recovers well, the stitches can almost be removed.
"Princess, Young Master Su Cha asks to see you." Jade came in and saw Lin Chujiu was writing a letter, she couldn't help but let out a sullen smile.
The day Xiao Tianyao left, Su Cha came, and then the whole palace knew that the prince had set a rule for the princess, requiring the princess to write a letter to the prince every three days, no less than three pieces of paper.
Obviously Xiao Tianyao was afraid of Lin Chujiu's words, but he actually refused to act. In order to prevent Lin Chujiu from forgetting her "promise", Xiao Tianyao asked people from the whole palace to remind Lin Chujiu and tell her not to forget this.
It was not easy for Xiao Tianyao to get Lin Chujiu to write "willingly".
Early this morning, Butler Cao made an excuse to come to Lin Chujiu, and then very euphemistically reminded Lin Chujiu that in three days, Master Su Cha might come to get the letter today.
Lin Chujiu pretended not to understand, but no matter where she went, someone would gently remind her: Princess, the day to write a letter has come!
In desperation, Lin Chujiu had to go into the study obediently and write to Xiao Tianyao honestly, but...
Write what
Lin Chujiu bit the pen with a tangled face.
The bad habit of biting the pen was a bad habit that was brought up when she was young and her mouth was greedy. Later, she stopped being greedy, but this bad habit could not be changed.
When Lin Chujiu heard that Su Cha was coming, she silently rolled up a ball of black paper on the table before asking Jade to invite Su Cha in.
As expected, after Su Cha finished the ceremony, the first sentence was: "Princess, today is the third day."
"What's the hurry, didn't you send your letter at night?" She must be able to write the letter before dark, although she doesn't know what to write yet.
"What the princess said is." Su Cha responded with kindness. Seeing Lin Chujiu's unhappy face, she said a little flatly: "Princess, if you don't want to write, you can dictate and I'll write it for you."
In order to see Lin Chujiu's letter to Xiao Tianyao, Su Cha also gave up.
He really wanted to know what Lin Chujiu wrote to Xiao Tianyao, why did Tianyao still laugh after reading it for the second time
This is simply - a miracle!
