Reincarnation of the powerful minister

Su Yan stood bowed outside the hall waiting for the order, when suddenly he heard two shouts from inside the hall, the first "get out" was to throw King Yu away, and the second "get out" was to summon him.

Emperor Jinglong was always elegant and didn't like to scold loudly. It seemed that he was very angry this time, and Su Yan couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

From the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the corner of the purple panlong robe, and he couldn't help but look up.

King Yu's footsteps also paused slightly in front of him, and the two met each other's eyes.

Su Yan slapped his mouth in the hall: What did His Majesty ask, and how did you answer it?

King Yu didn't intend to confess to him at all, he smiled from the corner of his eyes, pouted slightly, flirted with a kiss in the air, and left straight away.

Annoyed, Su Yan chose Plan B among the countermeasures.

He decided to take the risk and make a big fuss.

Lan Xi hurried out of the hall, and whispered in his ear, "The emperor is angry, please obey me, don't disobey", led him in, closed the hall door and retreated.

Su Yan saw that there was not a single servant serving in the palace. Emperor Jinglong was sitting at the table by the window, holding a yellow glazed teacup in his hand, his face sinking like water, and his eyes were deep and cold looking at him, as if he had returned to the palace examination. It was the first time he met the saint, and he was about to hit him with the imperial staff without saying a word.

This kind of Japanese dog feeling of "deleting the file for a while, and returning to Xinshou Village in an instant"... Su Yan took a deep breath, walked steadily in front of the king, and knelt down to salute.

"Su Yan." The emperor said coldly.

Before he could utter the third word, Su Yan sank into his dantian, his chest resonated, and he said first: "I have a book to play!"

The emperor was slightly taken aback.

"The minister is not a Taoist official. I know that I don't have the right to advise and supervise. What I say next is a crime, but I have to say it even if I will be dismissed." Su Yan took off the black hat in a hurry and put it beside him ground.

The emperor felt that this scene was extremely familiar, and it was a drama that officials and censors would perform in the court from time to time.First take off the official hat to show that the bones are strong and not afraid of losing the official head, and then point at someone's nose and scold him bloody.As the emperor, he had to listen patiently, otherwise he would be accused of blocking his speech.

This kid, who has not been an official for a few days, has learned the tricks of Qingliu and the others very well.The emperor was annoyed, and said with a sneer, "Who are you trying to impeach with this posture?"

Unexpectedly, Su Yan said: "No one will be impeached. The minister is the one who suffers, and he is here to sue the imperial court."

emperor:"?"

"His Royal Highness Prince Yu molested his ministers three times since the Enrong Banquet. He pinched my hand, touched my waist, and even kissed my mouth. He was very arrogant. Is it tolerable or unbearable? Please be your majesty as a minister." Make the decision!" Su Yan looked sad and indignant.

emperor:"……"

"King Yu is a member of the royal family, with a noble status. But I am also an innocent scholar, from a scholarly family, with a pure family style. If he wants to use his power to insult and insult me, I will smash my head to death in front of the imperial steps. Don't let him succeed!"

Seeing Su Yan's expression of bitterness and hatred, the emperor looked around, as if he was looking for a pillar suitable for hitting him to death, his scalp felt numb, and he put his hand on his forehead and sighed.

"I know you feel aggrieved, but you can avoid the routine of showing your ambition by death." The emperor said helplessly.

Su Yan didn't agree, "Your Majesty, are you suspicious of my minister's play? Well, I will show my loyalty." He got up and looked at the arms-thick legs of the red sandalwood plum pattern square table next to the armchair where the emperor was sitting. He closed his eyes and slammed past.

The emperor stretched out his hand to copy, easily wrapped his head around, pressed it on his lap, and couldn't laugh or cry: "Okay, okay, don't lose your temper. It's because I didn't think carefully, knowing that King Yu's conduct is not good, and I allowed him Teaching you how to archery has made you feel wronged."

Su Yan took advantage of the situation and put his head on the emperor's knee, wishing he could hug the dragon's leg and groan a few times to intensify his accusation, but in the end he still had to show his face.He moaned and said, "I am wronged."

"I know." The emperor stroked the back of his head reassuringly, he was very fond of the young man's sweetness and admiration, and when he thought of He Lin who was under Cheng Huan's knees when he was young, he felt that it was a completely different mood.A bit of secret and taboo pleasure, like gossamer floating flocs, tantalizes one's heart.

Involuntarily, her fingers moved down along his temples, pinching the white earlobe and rubbing it gently.The fingertips are soft and smooth to the touch, like newly opened crabapple petals, and the freshly brewed pear soup with ice slices is cold and sweet, bringing the emperor a kind of burning pain and pain that cannot be relieved.

Su Yan was immersed in the performance of the victim, and did not notice this little action that was not in line with the etiquette of a monarch and his ministers.

"I hit him in the face with a chessboard, but missed."

"When?"

"It's been a few days since I received the court rod, and I can't move it. It's in my yard."

"He took advantage of the fire to rob? It should be smashed."

"The minister still vomited, in the forest behind the palace."

"I know."

"How does the emperor know? Does King Yu still have the face to mention this matter?"

Emperor Jing Long was embarrassed to say that he had arranged Jinyiwei spies to monitor in the forest, and gave an inexplicable "hmm".

Su Yan said angrily: "I have never seen such a brazen person!"

The emperor nodded: "He is wrong about this matter, and he is ashamed of you. I will order him to apologize to you, how much compensation should be paid, you can see what you want, don't take advantage of him. In addition, I have also severely admonished him, telling him Stay away from you in the future."

Only then did Su Yan raise his head in satisfaction, get up and take a few steps back, thank you.

The emperor suddenly felt that his knees were empty, without a faint fragrance and warmth that made his heart sway.He tried his best to suppress it, and after he calmed down, he said: "Put on the official hat, I have something to ask you."

Su Yan accepted it as soon as he was good, put on a black gauze, and waited for the emperor's attention.

The emperor pointed to the armchair on the side, motioning for him to sit too.

Su Yan was sitting upright, when the emperor asked, "What do you think of Ye Donglou's death?"

Regarding the "what do you think" that Emperor Jinglong used to ask, Su Yan was a little reflexively vigilant, always suspecting that the other party was playing tricks again.

Besides, in the homicide case, he didn't study criminal investigation in his previous life, so what can he say?There are only two famous sentences in my impression: "After all the impossible is ruled out, what remains, no matter how unbelievable, is the truth" and "No matter how flawless a crime is, as long as it is man-made, there is no unsolved reason."

However to no avail.

He quickly flashed back the detective movies he had seen in his mind, and after considering it, he answered: "I don't have any experience in solving crimes. I have a little humble opinion. If I am wrong, I hope Your Majesty will forgive me."

The emperor waved his fingers, signaling him to stop talking about routines and scenes, and get straight to the point.

"I only have two questions. First, just before Ye Donglou fell, who was missing on the willow shooting field?" He smiled, "To tell you the truth, I wasn't there at that time, so I'm supposed to be suspicious."

At that time, he was still listening to Feng Anhou's corner, and was pressed on the pillar by Jin Yiwei Qianhu and kissed him forcefully.Of course, the inside story must not be confessed.When he was going to be questioned, he said he was looking for a belt.

"There are so many people on the field, they come and go and do their own thing. It's really hard to confirm who was missing at the time." Emperor Jing Long pondered, suddenly his eyes flashed, and he blurted out: "Yuan Hua."

There are many painters and painters enshrining the inner court in the Renzhi and Wuying halls of the imperial palace. They usually paint statues of emperors and heroes, flower and bird screens, and murals of Buddhist temples. Remember, called "court painting".

This Dragon Boat Festival shooting willow, there is also an inner court painter accompanying the holy driver, not just one.

Before Ye Donglou fell from the building, it happened that the crown prince won the first prize and thanked the emperor. Such an important event must be recorded on the spot. If you take a closer look at the paintings, you may be able to find out who is missing in the scene.

Of course, there may be nothing to see.

If the murderer was dressed as an internal official, maid of honor or guard, I am afraid that they would not be included in the painting one by one. Even if a servant is found missing, it is unknown who ordered it.

But it's a breaking point.

"You're quite clever." The emperor tapped his forehead with his finger, and unconsciously used an overly intimate tone, which made him look less like a serious monarch and minister, and more like an unscrupulous father and son.

Su Yan flattered: "It's His Majesty who has a keen mind."

"Any more questions?"

"Second, where is the murder weapon? Wu Zuo said that Ye Lang had a sharp wound on his abdomen caused by a dagger or a dagger. I feel that it is unlikely that the murderer would stay upstairs after stabbing him, because it would take him only half an hour to kill him. Within minutes, escape from the scene of the crime to avoid being surrounded by guards.

This time is not enough for him to leave too far, and after the incident, the area of ​​Longde Hall has been blocked, so he may be wearing a bloody coat and a murder weapon, and continue to mix into the crowd, trying to make a fool of himself.It is more likely that evidence such as the murder weapon is hidden in a remote place nearby. As long as the auxiliary building is the center and the surrounding area is thoroughly searched, it is possible to find the murder weapon. "

Emperor Jing Long nodded, and asked again: "If the murderer escapes immediately after stabbing Ye Donglou, how will he plan to make him fall exactly half a quarter of an hour later?"

Su Yan thought for a while and said: "After Ye Donglou was seriously injured and unconscious, the murderer put him on the edge of the fence, found a support point, and connected it to the timer with a mechanism... But how could the murderer expect the exact time when the imperial concubine walked down the steps?" Time? I don’t understand this point.”

The emperor stared at him: "Do you think that the murderer's real target is not Ye Donglou, but Wei Guifei and her fetus?"

Su Yan shook his head: "It's hard for me to say. Maybe there is no mechanism. Ye Donglou was seriously injured and hung on the fence. When he was half unconscious, his limbs twitched and he fell by himself. He accidentally scared the imperial concubine."

The emperor took a few sips of cold tea and remained silent in thought.

At this moment, some palace people rushed to summon the messenger.As soon as Lan Xi heard that the matter was serious, she hurried into the hall to report that Concubine Wei had successfully given birth to a prince, and the mother and child were safe.

Since Emperor Jinglong got married at the age of 16, he had only three daughters and one son.The prince Zhu Helin was born to the late Empress Zhang, and the other three princesses were all concubines.

The emperor was not keen on female sex, and his mind was not in the harem, resulting in only a handful of concubines with status, and none of them were very exclusive.The successor has been vacant for several years, and there is no intention of establishing a successor.The courtiers believed that the prince's interest was weak and not the blessing of the country and the community, and repeatedly persuaded him to accept more concubines, but so far there has been no effect.

Therefore, Concubine Wei has only been in the palace for two years, and she is pregnant with the dragon's heir, and she has quite a holy family, and she has attracted the attention of the court.Now that he got a man in one fell swoop, one can imagine how ecstatic those courtiers who urged the emperor to have more sons would be overjoyed.

Su Yan couldn't help but peek at the emperor's face.

The emperor looked happy, but his joy was limited and reserved. Compared with the nervous, excited, and surprised new fathers he saw outside the delivery room in the hospital in his previous life, he was almost cold.

This generation of Mingjun who created "Jinglong Zhongxing" and "Xuanwu Rule"...couldn't it be frigid?But I haven't seen it mentioned in the history books. I don't know if there is any related gossip in the unofficial history?Su Yan speculated disrespectfully in his heart.

Emperor Jinglong put down his teacup, and said to Su Yan, "I'm going to see Concubine Wei, please retire."

Then he turned around and ordered Lan Xi to pass the order outside the hall, continue to seal off the scene, and ordered Jin Yiwei to search the surrounding area thoroughly, with the auxiliary building as the center, looking for the murder weapon.In addition, he took all the courtyard paintings of the painters today, sealed them up and put them in a box, and opened them in public after he visited the imperial concubine, mother and son.

After leaving the palace gate, Su Yan saw the complex old face of the palm print eunuch staring at him in amazement.

After the two walked a few steps away, Lan Xifang sighed: "Nephew, what a means! It's the first time we've seen anyone other than my young master who can act like a coquettish fool in front of the emperor. Even the young master is not so proficient, I admire him."

Su Yan's ears felt hot, and when he thought of the situation just now, he felt embarrassed: "My nephew is immature, I made Uncle Shi laugh."

"What's the joke, as long as you can coax the emperor well and make him trust you and take pity on you, you are the greatest genius in the world." Lan Xi looked at him with a smile, as if she was looking at a livable rare item.

As soon as the two of them walked outside the hall, they saw Zhu Helin striding towards him with a grim look on his face. They must have also received the news of the birth of the new prince.

Lan Xi is a spirit who has practiced in the palace for [-] years. She immediately bowed and said that the old slave was going to pass the decree. If she had nothing else to say, she resigned, leaving Su Yan alone to face the prince's ignorant anger.
