In the middle of the main street, the people from the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division surrounded the remaining two people.
Wen Qingzhu walked in slowly, and the two people lying on the ground looked at her feebly, with frightened eyes.
When Fan Yu saw her coming, he quickly followed her, pointed at the two people on the ground and introduced: "These two people have some skills. I had no choice but to use Ruanjinsan."
Walking in front of the two people, Wen Qingzhu looked at the two people on the ground carefully, waved his hands and said: "It's okay, if they can get hit by your Ruanjin San, it means they are just minions and not worthy of our attention."
"Yes." Fan Yu said nothing more and stood quietly aside.
Wen Qingzhu knelt down, took out a small bottle, let the two people on the ground smell it, and then said with a smile: "You can talk now."
One of them opened his mouth subconsciously, said "you", and then quickly shut up.
As for the other person, he looked at Wen Qingzhu silently, his eyes full of fear.
"It seems that you are the little leader of this operation. Let me tell you, who asked you to do this?" Wen Qingzhu's smile was very gentle, but in the eyes of Shen Mo, it made him have the urge to commit suicide immediately. .
Unfortunately, although he can speak, he can only speak. He can't even bite his tongue and commit suicide.
Wen Qingzhu stood up and looked at him condescendingly: "Whether you say it or not, I will know in the end. The reason why I followed you for a day is just that I found that you are just ordinary people. The regent cares about the people. You don’t want me to attack ordinary people, so I advise you to confess.”
At this point, her eyes darkened: "Otherwise, I will make your life worse than death."
The silent man's eyelids twitched. The other two people didn't know who the woman in front of them was, but he knew it very well.
He had learned about this woman's methods a long time ago.
Wen Qingzhu didn't have that much patience. After looking at Fan Yu, he ordered someone to take the other person away.
The man who had always been silent finally spoke: "Wen Qingzhu, isn't this what you want? Overthrow the Jiang family's rule and support Fu Lie to ascend the throne!"
"Shut up! You actually slandered the regent! You said such treacherous words!" When Xi'er heard this, her heart skipped a beat and she yelled loudly.
Everyone in the surrounding five-city military and horse divisions was even more frightened. The recent rumors were not groundless.
The current court is indeed dominated by the regent, and the emperor is nowhere to be seen.
It was rumored that the emperor was ill, but no one could tell what the illness was.
Fan Yu is naturally someone who has heard such rumors. He knows the situation in the court better than anyone else.
Indeed, as the person in front of me said, the regent has a tendency to replace him.
Wen Qingzhu sneered: "If he had truly overthrown the Jiang family, he would have done it long ago. Why wait until this time?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone took a breath of air.
The princess clearly said that the regent had the power to overthrow the Jiang family's rule.
It's really not something ordinary people can say without shying away from taboos.
Fan Yu looked around and gave his subordinates a warning: Anyone who dares to tell what happened tonight will have no chance of going home alive.
Everyone lowered their eyes, not daring to look at Wen Qingzhu.
They were a family of military households in the capital, and the regent's name was resounding, but as they had been in the capital all year round, they were even more impressed by Princess Wen Qingzhu.
After all, no woman would dare to directly replace the emperor in court when he is not in court, but Wen Qingzhu has done it!
They are more afraid of the regent's thunderous methods than the benevolent regent!
"Hahaha!" The man lying on the ground looked at the sky and laughed three times.
The cold moonlight shone on his face, reflecting his pale face: "I said Wen Qingzhu, how dare you say that! No wonder my sister told me never to return to Beijing! I will never provoke you!"
"Who are you?" Wen Qingzhu couldn't help but squint slightly as he sounded like someone who knew him.
The person lying down looked over, with a bit of fanaticism in his eyes: "But the more my sister won't let me provoke you, the more I will do it! Who asked me to do this? Don't you already have the answer in your heart? Why bother? ask me!"
His eyes were suddenly filled with hatred: "A smart person like my sister died in your hands! I really want to avenge my sister!"
When Wen Qingzhu saw him like this, he knew he couldn't ask.
She turned around and walked out, and Fan Yu quickly ordered his subordinates to arrest this person.
Xi'er followed Wen Qingzhu, thought for a long time, and suddenly said: "His eyes are a bit like Xia Feiyan!"
Wen Qingzhu hesitated and turned back to look at the tied man. He was also looking at Wen Qingzhu, his eyes that saw through everything—
He is Xia Feiyuan's younger brother!
The Xia family was all captured after Xia Feiyuan fled to the Huns.
However, it didn't take long to investigate and find out the whole story. It turned out that the Xia family had no idea what Xia Feiyuan had done, so Su Huo just convicted the Xia family on an implicated charge and sentenced the Xia family to exile.
On the way to exile, it was difficult and dangerous, and many Xia family members died.
But there were still people who survived. Wen Qingzhu remembered that Xia Feiyuan had a playboy brother who was one of the survivors.
Unexpectedly, he returned to the capital.
After the man was taken away, Wen Qingzhu immediately said to Xi'er, "Let's go see Jin Yuanbao."
Xi'er was stunned for a moment, then nodded and followed.
In front of the prison, Jin Yuanbao was locked in a cell with a better environment. There were servants dedicated to serving him, and an imperial doctor came to see him every day.
With a jade bed and brocade quilt, carved tables and chairs, and bright lights, this is the cell that Wen Qingzhu saw.
Except for the restriction of freedom, the environment here is better than that at Jin Yuanbao's home.
However, Jin Yuanbao did not sit on the bed, but sat cross-legged on the futon on the ground. He was still wearing a flag prison uniform and seemed to be concentrating with his eyes closed.
Hearing the footsteps of someone approaching, he opened his eyes: "Princess."
Wen Qingzhu raised his hand, and the jailer went over to open the iron lock.
After walking in, Jin Yuanbao remained unmoved and looked at her coldly.
Sitting on the chair next to the table, Wen Qingzhu reached out to pick up the teapot and poured himself a cup of tea. Suddenly, steam came out of the cup.
After taking a sip, Wen Qingzhu said with admiration: "It seems that Suho treats you very well."
Jin Yuanbao frowned, not understanding what she meant.
He looked at Xi'er next to Wen Qingzhu. She seemed to have something to say, but she couldn't say it.
Wen Qingzhu put down his cup and met Jin Yuanbao's gaze: "I came here today not to persuade you, but to cooperate with you."
"Cooperation?" Jin Yuanbao suddenly thought of something and stood up immediately, "What did you do to the emperor?"
Wen Qingzhu also stood up: "So this is how I am in Master Jin's eyes?"
Jin Yuanbao pursed his lips and said nothing, obviously acquiescing.
"Hey, it seems that Mr. Jin misunderstood me deeply, so I'll tell you."
In order for the next plan to be successful, Wen Qingzhu told him every word about Wei Qinglin's fake poisoning and his plan to explore the cause of the emperor's illness.
In addition, he also apologized sincerely: "I really didn't expect that Mingxuan stabbed the emperor, but the emperor is not entirely without fault. Xiao Fangzi should have told you that the emperor almost killed the queen."
Jin Yuanbao didn't say anything, his eyes were full of shock. He didn't expect that Wen Qingzhu spared such a big deal just to treat the emperor!
As for the fact that the emperor almost killed the queen, it was unprecedented in all dynasties.
If it hadn't been for Xiao Fangzi's efforts to stop it, the queen would have been left with only a corpse.
Jiang Yuanhan is the emperor, but in Jin Yuanbao's heart, the emperor breaks the law and the common people are equally guilty.
After thinking for a while, Jin Yuanbao asked: "What do you want me to do with you?"
Wen Qingzhu suppressed his smile: "Go quietly to the palace to see the emperor, and then impeach the regent! Of course, if you insist on sentencing Mingxuan to behead, that would be the best."
"What exactly do you want to do?" Jin Yuanbao felt his mouth was dry. Wen Qingzhu's idea was too crazy.
Since he wanted to cooperate, Wen Qingzhu was not afraid to tell him: "Of course it is to treat the emperor's illness. Heart disease naturally requires heart medicine. His crux is me. If he can stay in my shadow, then he will never be beaten by Pei again." If someone like Yi takes advantage of him, he will become a good emperor of Qi."
Wen Qingzhu was very clear about Jin Yuanbao's character. He was the most upright and loyal minister.
It is difficult for him to act, but if it involves the emperor, Jin Yuanbao will be the best actor.
In other words, he wanted to convict Wen Mingxuan from his heart, impeach Fu Lie, and expel Wen Qingzhu.
So he doesn't need to act, he just needs to do what he wants.
Jin Yuanbao still didn't understand: "Can this cure diseases?"
"I don't guarantee it. This is my attempt." Wen Qingzhu acted very sincerely when facing Jin Yuanbao.
Unexpectedly, these words made Jin Yuanbao turn blue with anger: "Your attempt? If something goes wrong, can you-"
"Master Jin still doesn't believe me. Do you think I will let something happen to Mingxuan? Is your impeachment really useful to me and Fu Lie?" Wen Qingzhu shook his head slightly.
At this time, Xi'er finally understood what Wen Qingzhu meant and said, "Yuanbao, if you come with us, you will understand why the princess needs you to impeach the regent."
The next day, Wen Qingzhu helped Jin Yuanbao disguise himself and took him around the streets and alleys of the capital.
The faces of the people and the aspirations of the people are the truest expression.
When he returned to the prison, Jin Yuanbao's face was filled with dejection.
Could it be that the regent is what the people want
Some people among the people actually hoped that the emperor would remain ill and the regent would remain in power.
Jin Yuanbao received more than ten years of education from monarchs, ministers and fathers, which gave him a natural ruler in his heart.
Born in a bitter mountain village, he knew that people's lives were not easy, and his greatest wish was to serve the people and the world, so he passed the imperial examination and came to the capital in order to help the king become a wise king.
But now the people hope that the emperor will not appear again, and Jin Yuanbao has great conflicts in his heart.
Wen Qingzhu looked at his painful expression and asked Xi'er to stay with him. He walked out of the prison and saw Su Huo waiting at the door.
"Is Sister Zhou okay?" Wen Qingzhu knew that Zhou Yi sacrificed a child in this great change in the capital.
Su Huo's face softened: "She's very nice. She just wants to see you. I'll let her see you."
These words were really something that Su Huo could say. Wen Qingzhu couldn't help but smile and said, "Aren't you afraid that I will be sad if you are so guarded against me?"
Su Huo laughed: "There are not many things that can make you sad. I don't think I'm worthy of it."
On the contrary, Wen Qingzhu looked at Su Huo who had seen through everything. Apart from Fu Lie, she and Su Huo really cared about each other and understood each other best.
After chatting, Wen Qingzhu got down to business: "Why are you here?"
Su Huo glanced at Xixi and said, "A lot of bad news has come from Shazhou one after another. I'm afraid Jiang Yuancheng is going to take action."
"In what name?" Wen Qingzhu asked knowingly.
Su Huo looked indifferent: "Qingjun side."
The two looked at each other, smiled, and said goodbye in a tacit understanding.
Now that Jiang Yuancheng is preparing to send troops in the name of Qingjun, rumors of replacing him with a regent are likely to come even more rapidly.
Back at Xuanzheng Hall, Wen Qingzhu talked about today's events.
Fu Lie thought for a while and said, "Why don't you go to Yunzhou."
"Should I go to Yunzhou?" Wen Qingzhu frowned, "What about Yuan Han's illness? There are still many hidden dangers here in the capital. Who knows who will suddenly betray you? I can't leave you alone in the capital!"
