Sleeve the world, mourning melody

·

There was constant whispering in the hall, and the guards at the palace gate were solemn and solemn.

The atmosphere is unusual today, everyone sighed secretly, and they became more and more vigilant on duty.

Qi Yang, who was found by Tao Yao and others, stood outside the door holding a knife.

He had already heard about the shocking changes in Qingning Palace just now, before Taoyao went in to communicate, Qi Yang was guarding the palace gate, distracted, thinking about the words Sima Zi had left him when he appeared just now:

"Everyone in Qingning Hall, I beg Commander Qi to be more dedicated."

What does the Empress mean by this?Qi Yang faintly felt that it wasn't just referring to the empress dowager...

Tao Yao stepped out quickly and passed on the Queen Mother's oral order, asking Qi Yang to take care of the overall situation and not to stay here.

Qi Yang was puzzled, so he agreed, and Li Xing went to the nearest imperial garden, but did not go far.

Sima Zi walked into the Palace of Qinzheng alone, and went to the front of the imperial court to look around. What he saw was very lively.

In terms of official rank, I am afraid that all the civil and military ministers above the third rank are gathered... She does not know most of the people present, but there are always exceptions.

Sima Zi and Sima Xiao tacitly avoided their eyes, she turned her eyes, and saw the man in the vermilion official uniform approaching with his hands behind his back.

Shi Yan bowed to Sima Zi respectfully, but what he said was not "Empress" but "Emperor's Sister-in-law".

Sima Zi didn't take it seriously, and smiled lightly, "I haven't seen my son-in-law for a long time, you seem to be a lot thinner, and your official clothes don't look as good as before."

In fact, Sima Zi had never seen Shi Yan in official uniform, she retorted, she just saw that his unruly demeanor didn't go his way.

For the two people in the palace, the drama of "you argue with me, I will fight against the general" was more or less caught by the indifferent bystanders.

Zhou Hang and others were angry in their hearts, and scolded the little girl from the Shen family for her sharp teeth. Inside, many people laughed from the bottom of their hearts and cheered for the empress master.

Shi Yan gritted his teeth, his face turned pale, Ling Sheng spoke at this moment, calling him back to the queue.With this resentment in his mouth, Shi Yan stepped back as ordered.

Sima Zi raised her eyes again and faced the imperial case, she stepped forward and bowed her knees to meet him.

Ling Cheng didn't talk nonsense with her, he raised his hand to greet her, and cut straight to the point: "Does the empress know, why did I find you here?"

"My concubine doesn't know. It's just," Sima Zi said, he glanced sideways at the first-ranked scholar, "I think it's not because His Majesty is benevolent and filial to me in the palace, so I was allowed to meet my father and daughter."

Before Sima Zi finished speaking, the wind turned again, and the courtiers and neighbors looked at each other with different expressions.

"Ahem." Sima Zi's words were sarcasm, implying that today's people are unkind and filial, and Sima Xiao, who is the "father of the country", coughed twice and shook his head to persuade his "daughter" to be cautious.

Sima Zi returned his gaze and said nothing more.

Others thought the little girl was in awe of her father, but Sima Xiao closed his eyes sadly.That girl had just contradicted the Holy Master just now, she was clearly looking for an opportunity to convey her thoughts.

The calm-looking girl's eyes were turbulent, Sima Xiao could clearly see that she was taking this opportunity to say goodbye to him.

As for where she will go, it is up to him to decide with sufficient weight.

Sima Xiao was anxious, and the emperor ordered him to hurry up, so he was detained here after the imperial court was dispersed.Looking at Sima Zi now, Sima Xiao knew that today's situation is not easy.

Could it be that Nian'er's identity was leaked?Sima Xiao was startled and pondered over countermeasures.

Sima's father and daughter are gloomy, but in the eyes of the opponent, they are extremely gratifying.Shi Yan twitched the corner of his mouth slightly, unable to bear to admire Sima's ascent and fall.

The emperor lowered his eyes, silently memorizing the expressions of the crowd, and took the opportunity to resolve the sarcasm of the little girl just now.

Sima Zi scolded him not for nothing, Ling Cheng thought that he had contradicted Queen Mother Li a lot before, but the current situation was critical, and he was concerned about the safety of Chu State, so he thought that after the fact, his mother would understand him...

"The queen hasn't figured it out yet?"

Before the emperor spoke, the subordinates waited bitterly, not daring to vent their breath, but now, all of them lowered their heads and restrained their eyes, looking respectful, but in fact they were all looking at the thin woman in the palace.

"The concubine is stupid."

Ling Sheng turned around in a blink of an eye, "Brother-in-law, come and mention the queen."

"No." Shi Yan came out, and went straight to Sima Zi's expression, he glanced at her with satisfaction and said, "I have the courage to ask the empress, where are the two maids before you entered the palace?"

"Before I entered the palace, I made it clear to both of them. They didn't want to enter the palace, so they didn't ask for it. Now they want to come and go back separately."

"Going back," Shi Yan put his hands behind his back, and smiled lowly with her, "I'm afraid you're going back beyond the Great Wall, right?"

Sima Zi frowned.The emperor announced that she came here to pursue this matter... I don't know what happened to Yueling...

Shi Yan poked at the victim's wound, and went further: "If not, the two of them have been with you day and night, and they have been sisters for more than ten years, so they are reluctant to leave. Why don't you ask the queen to call her out to meet you?"

Sima Zi was unmoved, and asked instead: "The two of them are not in the palace, how did they meet?"

"Since the empress is in trouble, why don't you give it to me." Shi Yan replied with a smile, turned around and shouted: "Come here!"

The sound of rustling footsteps outside the hall was amplified, the door opened, and a woman was pushed through the door with her hands cut behind her back.

"Let go! This girl will go by herself!" Yue Lan protested repeatedly, but she still couldn't help but show up in front of her eyes.

"Lan'er!" Sima Zi ushered in, supported Yue Lan, who was pushed unsteadily by the guards, and glared at Yue Lan, who stood behind her as the culprit.

The guard backed away shyly.

Sima Zi's exclamation continued, and doubts arose in the queue.

Chen Zhi stepped forward, pointed at Shi Yan, and accused him of trespassing on the Ministry of Criminal Justice for lynching.

"Master Chen, what are you talking about?" Shi Yan smiled impeccably, clenched his fists and waved the emperor away, "You and I are officials in the same dynasty, and we are all loyal to His Majesty. How can we distinguish between public and private?"

What a clever mouth!All sensible people knew that it was Shi Yan who made an unreasonable sophistry, but the charges he charged were too great, the upright old man blushed with anger, his hands trembled, and he couldn't say any more words of blame.

In the end, Ling Sheng had to come out with a sneer to ease the acute situation.

Being protected by the emperor, Shi Yan's expression became even more rebellious.

"Shi Aiqing." When Shi Yan was proud, he didn't notice that Ling Sheng had changed his title.

"There is one person beside the queen here, what about the other person?"

"Your Majesty," Shi Yan bowed his head and cupped his fists, "I request that you lead troops into the palace to search for the traitors!"

"Oh?" Ling Sheng pushed Tai Chi back and forth with him, "I don't know what Shi Aiqing said about the traitor?"

"Your Majesty," Shi Yan became more and more complacent, regardless of Shi Xiang's admonishing eyes, and said frankly: "The family has secretly reported that another maidservant of Second Miss Sima, Yue Ling, is involved in the turmoil in the northern region, and she is currently hiding in the palace. ! I request an order to bring someone into the palace to arrest him!"

Before Ling Sheng gave the order, someone in the queue couldn't hold back anymore, and it was Chen Zhi, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishments who retorted: "So, the Ding of your family has the ability to sneak into the palace to explore the secrets?"

"You," Shi Yan opened his mouth to refute, but Shi Xiang stopped him and said, "Your Majesty, the dog said something wrong in a hurry. Someone in my mansion indeed saw a sneaky white-clothed woman absconding into the city last night, but that Whether or not they belong to the Sima family," Shi Xiang glanced in the direction of Sima's father and daughter, and said calmly, "I don't know."

"Oh." Ling Cheng nodded, and after thinking about it, he took advantage of the situation: "Since that's the case, it's better to take the woman and deal with it later. As for the queen," Ling Sheng looked around and sighed: "Let's take it into custody in the palace first."

"Your Majesty." Ling Cheng sighed softly, and waved his hands to drive all the officials back.After the historian father and son looked at each other, Shi Yan clasped his fists and said: "I bear the heavy responsibility of the royal family, I implore your majesty to hand over the matter of collecting thieves to my humble minister."

Ling Cheng looked coldly at the group's ready-to-movement, smiled secretly, seemed to lower his eyes in thought, then nodded in response, and ordered Shi Yan to dispatch the imperial guards and Jingzhaofu soldiers and horses to start an investigation in the capital.

"Is that what the emperor said?"

Li Mi closed her eyes and leaned on the couch, listening to the story of the past.

Li An was very respectful, and reproduced the scene of the conflict in front of the imperial court before noon.Then he added: "Your Majesty and Commander He and Commander Ling San are still discussing."

Li Yu nodded slightly, resting her forehead with her hand, her eyes still closed, "You go first."

"Yes." Li An turned around, then bowed his waist and knelt down and added: "Master, please take care of it."

"Hmph, have you seen her?"

Li An laughed, and said solemnly: "Master, it's disrespectful to allow this servant to say something. Miss Jiu is dedicated to you. In this palace, no one else can replace you."

Li Yu just opened his eyes, and smiled at him, "You can't live without her?"
