After Jing Wenzhao left, Jing Wenhao took Li Xi back to the inner hall.As Li Xi grew older, her body became more and more tired, and she always wanted to sleep.But Li Zhiyuan silently entered his own small dark room, in fact, it was the side hall that Li Xi arranged for him to rest, in the Zhiran Hall.

Jing Wenhao put people on the bed, Li Xi has a very bad temper now when she sleeps, she often gets angry when she can't sleep when she should sleep, the way of getting angry is also strange, she doesn't make a lot of noise, she just sulks herself .A person is holding back in his heart, anyway, he just looks like he can't get out of his breath, and he is extremely wronged.Jing Wenzhao stayed in the palace for a little longer today, which made Li Xi miss his nap time, so he began to writhe unconsciously as soon as he got into bed.

Jing Wenhao was afraid that he wouldn't be able to sleep well, so he quickly hugged him in his arms and put his hands behind his back, gently patted Li Xi's back, and said some funny things in his ear to soothe him The tension in Li Xi's heart was that she was being served like this, Li Xi finally stopped thumping and slept peacefully in Jing Wenhao's arms.

When Li Xi woke up, Jing Wenhao was no longer by her side, rubbed her eyes and sat up, called Zhi Ling to help her change, and asked the time by the way, only to realize that she had slept for a long time today.

"Is the queen hungry?" Zhi Ling asked after helping Li Xi get dressed. "Snacks are ready in the kitchen. Today they are all vegetarian, with stewed desserts. If the queen is hungry, she can order them at any time."

Li Xi stood up, feeling a little hungry, so she nodded and said, "As usual, it's double, Secretary Li is up?"

"Go back to the queen, get up, and draw shadow puppets in the outer hall." Zhiling replied.

"That's good." Li Xi tidied himself up and left the inner hall after feeling that there was nothing wrong with him.

Li Zhiyuan was standing in front of the table at this moment, carefully drawing a shadow puppet with the model on the table.Seeing Li Xi coming out, Li Zhiyuan stopped, put his pen aside, and came to greet Li Xi.

Seeing Li Zhiyuan's movements, Li Xi stopped him directly, and said: "Don't worry about these vain rituals, what are you drawing?"

Li Zhiyuan proudly took out the shadow puppet on the table, held it up to Li Xi, and said, "Queen, look, who do you look like."

Li Xi took a closer look, although it was just a model, but he could tell a little bit, said: "Do you know that privately painting portraits of the royal family is a capital offense?"

Li Zhiyuan immediately restrained the look of joy on his face, secretly lowered his head and thought that he was really careless, he was covered by the Queen's sugar-coated shells a few days ago and couldn't find the north, south, south, east and north, but today he was negligent and something went wrong, and he didn't know how to explain it for a while.

Li Xi saw Li Zhiyuan's nervousness, and didn't want to tease anyone. He knew Li Zhiyuan's temperament very well. He was just a child, and he was the kind who would climb up when given a pole, so he smiled and said: "Okay. , the painting is quite good, let’s leave it alone. Let’s continue after we have tea later, and tomorrow we will play Monkey King Three Dozens.”

Seeing that the queen did not blame Li Zhiyuan, his heart finally calmed down.

While the two were having tea, Li Xi remembered Li Zhiyuan's performance just now, and asked, "Master Xie, have you already been hired?"

Li Zhiyuan, who was drinking tea, choked himself with a sip of tea. He was just looking for an excuse, but now the fifth day of the new year is not far away. If the King of England hadn't left by then, he would definitely ask the emperor to punish him for deceiving the emperor.

Li Zhiyuan was so embarrassed that he just found an excuse to get away.

On the other side, Jing Wenhao didn't sleep with Li Xi for a long time, he tiptoed up almost as soon as Li Xi fell asleep.Li Yong brought Junshi Ma and Lieutenant General Li into the palace in the afternoon.When Jing Wenhao arrived at the Hall of Supreme Harmony, several people were already there.

"The humble minister joins the emperor."

"The grassroots see the emperor." As soon as Jing Wenhao entered, several people saluted in unison.

Jing Wenhao flicked his sleeves and said, "Excuse me."

"We are all familiar with each other, so let's not stick to these vain rituals. Everyone who came in today has some ideas in their hearts. Why, who will talk about it first?" Jing Wenhao just took back his military power, and the variables are still very big. The main thing is to find some trustworthy people to rule the army.

"Your Majesty, I have something to say." Jing Wenhao originally thought that Li Yong would be the one who broke the deadlock, but it turned out to be Junshi Ma.

"That's it, the military adviser should talk about it." Jing Wenhao sincerely respects this military adviser Ma. In his last life, he was also the one who helped Jing Wenhao persuade General Xiao in the army under various pressures. As for the last time when Jing Wenxi forced the palace, he relied on the private army instead of people from his grandfather's side.

"It's a good thing that the emperor wants to investigate Lieutenant General Li's affairs. However, as far as I know, this matter is very involved. I don't know how far the emperor's will can be extended?" Although this is the first time Ma Junshi met Jing Wenhao , but he was determined to see what Jing Wenhao meant. After all, if it was just a show, this person would not be worthy of his dedication and blood.

Jing Wenhao knew Ma Junshi’s worries. He used to be a bit indecisive in his actions, especially when facing Jing Wenxi and his grandfather, he almost gave in without a bottom line. The army is just putting on a show, and can't touch the fundamentals of those people. After all, they are still innocent.

"Mr. Ma, I will tell you today that what I have to do this time is to uproot them. I don't know why Junshi Ma has any doubts?"

Junshi Ma secretly glanced at Jing Wenhao, seeing that Jing Wenhao had never dodged in his eyes, he knew that the emperor might be serious this time, so he knelt down immediately.

"If that's the case, Your Majesty, I have a letter in blood. It is the centurion who testified against Lieutenant General Li. At that time, he was coerced by Xiao Qian and came out to identify Lieutenant General Li. After he finished, he knew that Xiao Qian would not let him go." After passing his family, he went back and tried to flee with his family, but was intercepted and killed by Xiao Qian. At that time, Weichen asked General Li to send someone to rescue him, but it was still a step too late. When our people arrived and drove those people away When he left, the centurion was already bruised and angry, and he handed over this blood book when he was in a daze." Junshi Ma became more and more excited when he spoke.

"At that time, only General Li and I knew about the blood book. General Li and I were planning to hand over the blood book on the second day's face-to-face meeting. Unexpectedly, General Li was plotted against by someone on the way back to the mansion that night, and he contracted a strange disease. The matter was dragged down. Once the blood book is released, it will take many years."

Junshi Ma knelt on the ground, holding a blood book in both hands, and handing it over his head.

A little eunuch walked up to Junshi Ma in small steps, took the blood letter, and handed it to Jing Wenhao in small steps.

The expression on Jing Wenhao's face was quite solemn at this moment. He knew that people like his grandfather would not be too clean under his hands, but he didn't know that so many lives could be killed by blatant hands.

Jing Wenhao looked at the yellowed blood book, many of the words had faded, it could be seen that someone had carefully preserved it, otherwise the blood book would have been shattered in his hands all these years.The frown became tighter and tighter, and he asked, "A few years ago, why didn't you show it?"

"I don't dare. On the night when General Li sent someone to rescue him, he was conspired against, saying that he was infected with an illness, but that was clearly intentional. How could General Li be so careless? General Li met me when he was dying and told me first. Huang Shengchong Xiao's family, he is dying, so he can only try his best to save Lieutenant General Li in the end, but this matter cannot be exposed no matter what."

"Brother Li, I'm the one who's sorry for you. You've suffered a lot in the past few years." When Junshi Ma said this, his voice had already started to choke, and he was speechless facing Lieutenant General Li, and could only look away.

Before Jing Wenhao could speak, Li Yong tremblingly said, "You, you just said that your father was plotted against?" Li Yong's eyes almost flashed over and over again the night when his father came back a few years ago. , his eyes were dull, his face was pale, and the doctor invited by the family said that it was an acute illness, and he was afraid that he would not be able to stay for a long time. He really felt that the sky was falling.In the last few days, my father repeatedly asked him to take good care of his younger brother and the family.The scene of his father spitting out a mouthful of blood and falling on the bed flashed over and over again before Li Yong's eyes.He was terrified. His mother, grandmother and younger brother were all crying, but he was the only one who couldn't cry. He promised his father to support the family, and he did it for so many years.But now, Junshi Ma is telling him that his father's death was due to being plotted against?

"Going back to the emperor, it was the general who told the minister himself that on his way home, he met a woman in ragged clothes lying on the side of the road. When he went to help the woman up, a mouse suddenly jumped out and bit him. The mouse was sick and acute, otherwise General Li would not be able to heal it. The woman saw that it was going to run away, but was killed by General Li." Ma Junshi wept blood. , "Your Majesty, it is very clear whose case General Li was investigating at that time. It is also clear who did this. I beg the Emperor to give Vice General Li and General Li justice."

Jing Wenhao looked at Li Yong's face, which was almost iron-blue, his eyes almost burst into flames, he kept staring at Junshi Ma, but couldn't say a word.

But at this time, Jing Wenhao was extremely shocked, not only shocked, but even more afraid.Although this matter has nothing to do with him, it was his father who manipulated the Xiao family to cause such an incident. If Li Xi's father's death was really related to the Xiao family, he didn't know how to deal with it. It's clear.

"Okay, let's pass on the order. Lieutenant General Li will reinstate his post today to assist Army Division Ma in thoroughly investigating the case." Jing Wenhao trembled a little when he said this.

Seeing that Jing Wenhao's expression was not right, the two of them ordered to leave, and only Li Yong remained in the hall. Jing Wenhao thought about it, waved his hand, and said: "You should go back first, this matter , I will ask someone to investigate. You, don't tell Li Xi yet."
