In autumn, the weather turns cooler.

However, the emperor's brain hurt from the quarrels of the past few days, and his leg disease began to recur with the change of the climate. He suddenly started coughing at night, and he didn't suppress it in the court hall.

The sudden coughing made the hearts of all the officials tremble. Everyone thought that the emperor was mad at them and was furious, so they were silent for a moment.Only a few old people who had been with the emperor since the war figured out some clues, and frowned deeply.

The emperor covered his mouth with a handkerchief, wiped away the small smear of bright red without leaving any traces, sat up straight, and lowered his majestic gaze, "This is the court hall, not Caishikou, you don't need to quarrel anymore , Dali Temple will start the trial tomorrow."

With the emperor's words, the civil servants immediately felt that they had won the initial victory, while the generals were blown away. However, no matter how unwilling they were, the eunuch Ming An announced his withdrawal from the court with a loud voice.

"General Su, General Su!" He Zhenglong yelled under his broken voice, and strode to Su Shihui's side, "What should we do now? Is it possible for them to interrogate?"

"This is His Majesty's will, can we still defy it?" Su Shihui said in a deep voice.

But He Zhenglong felt unwilling, "I said, why did they ground the prince? The trial will start tomorrow, and the prince has not been banned for seven days. What if these bastard sons directly charge them with crimes? Do you want me to transfer some soldiers... "

Su Shihui suddenly flew over with sharp eyes, "This is the imperial city, don't use your crooked brain."

He Zhenglong said awkwardly, "But we have to find a way."

"If the prince wants to come out, he must have a way. But now he doesn't even see us." Su Shihui pondered. He watched Li Yan grow up, but found that he had never seen this young master clearly.Unexpectedly, he became stable when he was a child. He escaped from the First World War in Luoyang City and came back without crying or fussing. As an idle prince, Su Shihui never gave up hope.

But now... what does he want to do?

Countless doubts and suspicions finally flowed to Dali Temple. In just one day, Fan Zhengchun felt that his hair was like fallen leaves in autumn, returning to the embrace of the earth impatiently.

He never expected that it would be Guan Qingci, not himself, who was sitting in the Dali Siqing position as he was now.By the way, Guan Qing's resignation must be pushed out tomorrow. The emperor already intends to promote him. Let Guan Qing's resignation show his face, maybe the scene will be better.

Thinking of this, Fan Zhengchun immediately went to look for Guan Qingci, moreover in person, but Guan Qingci seemed to have evaporated from the world, and no one knew where he had gone.Even Zhang Yan, his right-hand assistant, said that he hadn't seen his lord for a whole day.

Fan Zhengchun was very annoyed as he failed to find anyone and stood under the ginkgo tree in Dali Temple.

He felt that Guan Qingci must have deliberately avoided him, just to see him make a fool of himself.But in fact Fan Zhengchun was never on Guan Qingci's mind, he was sitting in an inconspicuous room in an inconspicuous inn in Chang'an City at the moment, holding an old mask in his hand, speechless.

When he walked in, there was no one in the room, only this mask lying quietly on the table.A note was pressed under the mask, writing a letter—he was always there.

The Buddha has thousands of faces, and the devil also has thousands of faces. At this time, what kind of face is the Rakshasa walking in the world?

What is his relationship with the person who revealed the news to him?

Guan Qingci waited in the room for a long time with little hope, but no one came.But there is no doubt that the person who put the mask here must know the whereabouts of Rakshasa.

And they will surely come to him again.

The sun and the moon alternate, and a new day is coming soon.

The morning light depicts the mythical beast on the eaves of the imperial palace, which raises its head high. Day after day, year after year, it swallows the essence of the sun and the moon, and the golden light endows it with mystery.

The Suzaku Street in the dim light is as lively as ever, but there are a few different emotions in the bustle, and everyone's eyes can't help but look in a certain direction—yesterday's notice said that the imperial court would make the Hongheling incident public trial, and today.

So the street in front of Dali Temple was full of people coming and going, even there were twice as many beggars than usual.

The tea drinkers on the street counted the people passing by one by one, from the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Punishment, and even those from the Qin Tianjian, not to mention the mighty and majestic generals. This morning, the people in Chang'an watched a year's worth of copies.

I have to say that people in Zhou really love beauty to the core. At this time, they still have the leisure to comment on the appearance and dress of officials.

But Yishui'er's official uniform was really nothing to look at. After looking around for a long time, they couldn't help but feel a little disappointed that they didn't see the red color that made Luoyang Wang so exciting.

It seems that the king of Luoyang is really grounded, but is today's matter going to be decided directly without him?Looks like he's in a bad place.

But amid everyone's doubts, another white figure walked slowly in the sunlight, which was immediately eye-catching compared to the uniform official uniform in front of him.

It's Yan Sanbai!

Yes, today is such an important day, how could he not be here, he and the King of Luoyang are still good friends!

However, when Yan Sanbai walked to the door, even bigger waves broke out.A sharp-eyed tea drinker saw that there seemed to be a big battle at the end of the road. He stood up and saw that the tea he had just drank almost choked out of his throat—the royal chariot!It was His Majesty the Emperor who came in person!

Be nice.

He couldn't help swallowing his saliva, all the ghosts and monsters came today, it was really the biggest battle since the opening of the Great Zhou dynasty.

Yan Sanbai stood aside with his hands down, waiting for the imperial chariot to enter first.The people of Dali Temple also hurriedly opened the gate a little more, and stood respectfully on both sides.But who would have thought that the imperial chariot did not leave when it arrived at the door, the great eunuch Ming An seemed to have received some orders, lifted the curtain, and the still healthy looking emperor walked down, turned his head to look at Yan Sanbai, and smiled, " Great Xia Yan will go in with me?"

Yan Sanbai returned the salute, and stepped forward generously, "Please, Your Majesty first."

So the two went in together in an extremely eye-catching way, which made many people's minds spin again.

At the same time, Fan Zhengchun finally caught Guan Qingci who just came back from outside.Without thinking about asking him why he didn't come back last night, Fan Zhengchun hastily pulled him aside.

Unexpectedly, Guan Qingci did not push him away. What was even more unexpected was that before Fan Zhengchun opened his mouth, Guan Qingci proposed to himself: "I will preside over today's interrogation, how about it?"

"Ah? Oh... yes!" Fan Zhengchun was stunned for a moment, but soon realized that he agreed hastily.After agreeing, he became a little skeptical again, Guan Qingci took the initiative to take this hot potato... Could there be another plan?

However, it was too late for Fan Zhengchun to ask any more questions at this time, and all the people had arrived, even more than he had imagined.The sun is high, can't wait.

In the lobby, everyone sat down one by one.The emperor was in the middle, facing outwards, with Ming An on one side and Yan Sanbai on the other.At a glance, even Pei Song, who had been in court for many days in time, came.

But when Guan Qingci walked in and told the emperor that he would be in charge of today's affairs, Yan Sanbai suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.He tried to ask Guan Qingci with his eyes, but Guan Qingci's eyes quickly passed over him, and he turned around, "Bring the accuser Zheng Yong up."

Zheng Yong was quickly brought up, and he knelt on the ground with a thud. Zhou Wei had so many big figures, even the emperor, that he didn't dare to lift his head due to the coercion, and sweat soon oozes from his forehead.

"Zheng Yong, but you sounded the grievance drum, hoping to re-investigate the Hongheling case?"

"Yes, yes! My lord."

"The Hongheling case has long been settled, why did you do this?"

"Return to your lord," Zheng Yong tried to calm himself down, but he couldn't control his nervousness and excitement. "It was the former dark guard who leaked the news to me, saying that there was something else hidden about the Hongheling case. Caomin, Caomin just wanted to die. Please seek justice for your loved ones! Please do it!"

Guan Qingci nodded and looked up at the ministers, "In recent days, Dali Temple has accepted no less than ten grievance complainers like Zheng Yong. Their words are similar, so I won't invite them one by one. Hongheling Everyone knows about the case. General Qin Yanqin of the former dynasty had no hope of fleeing, so he brutally killed the people in the Hongheling area, a total of about 5000 people. Afterwards, His Royal Highness King Li led troops to arrive and took Qin Yan The remnant army was killed on the spot, this is the great victory of Hongheling."

Guan Qingci said, his tone was cold, and he met the eyes of the general Su Shihui, "General Su, I'm right."

Su Shihui glanced at him lightly, seeming to sense the hostility in Guan Qingci's eyes, and frowned slightly.

Guan Qingci obviously didn't really want his answer, so he quickly looked away and said, "The witness, Mrs. Xie."

Xie Shi?Fang Shangshu's heart trembled immediately, and the alarm bells rang in his heart.How did this have anything to do with my family again?The case of murdering the prince is still pending, what is going on?God, God, are you playing with me?

God seemed to have really heard his prayer, and a gentle voice suddenly sounded.

"Wait a minute."

Fang Shangshu hurriedly followed the sound, and saw Yan Sanbai standing beside the emperor, walking down.

Turning around and standing still, Yan Sanbai bowed his hands to the surroundings, his eyes were gentle but firm, "Your Majesty, my lords, this matter involves King Li, and the case that Lord Guan will present next may also be closely related to King Li. I feel that the case of Luoyang His Royal Highness also has the right to know, so I implore His Majesty to lift the restraining order first and let the prince come."

As soon as these words came out, some people immediately objected, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid this is inappropriate. A ban is a ban, how can it be changed at will. Besides, Honghe Ridge happened more than ten years ago, even if the prince came, it would not help."

The emperor didn't speak, but looked at Yan Sanbai.

Yan Sanbai said calmly: "His Royal Highness King Li has passed away for many years, since he is involved in this case, we have no reason not to let his only heir attend."

The emperor thought about it, then looked at the others, "What do you say?"

He Zhenglong couldn't hold back any longer, and was about to stand up to complain, but unexpectedly, Zhai Ying stood up before him.When He Zhenglong saw the stinky stone-like face, he felt that something was going to happen, and wished he could grab him by the collar and throw him out, but when Zhai Ying opened his mouth, he froze.

"Master Yan's words are reasonable, and the minister seconded his opinion."

As soon as Zhai Ying said this, everything fell silent.Knowing his previous plan, Pei Song stared at him as if he had seen a ghost, wishing to stare at Hua.

It's really strange that things happen every year, especially this year.

However, when Yan Sanbai was working hard here, and Zhai Ying gave a moral push at the critical moment, the situation on the other side was not as good as everyone imagined.

In fact, in order to hurry, Li Yan had already set off before the imperial decree to lift the ban arrived.

But obviously there are many people who don't want him to reach Dali Temple safely.
