Along the way, the palace maids and maids were all in a hurry, hanging their heads and not looking at each other.

When he arrived in front of the Long Live Palace, looking at the blood stains in the snow that had not been covered by the wind and snow and the dozen or so cronies who were nowhere to be seen, Wang Jien had an ominous premonition in his heart.

The deputy commander of the third command of the Wu De Division made Liu Lang hold his sword and lead several personal officials to guard in front of the palace, everyone had blood stains on their bodies, and they looked murderous.

Seeing the arrival of the five people, Liu Lang and Zhao Pu quickly glanced at each other, and shouted: "The four princes have been enthroned in front of the first emperor's spirit by the edict, and they also invite the prince, Wang Duzhi and Zhao Xiang to wait here for the hundred officials, and then meet the new monarch together." "

King Jin's face was pale, and he only felt a chill coming to his bones, and he couldn't help but say loudly: "As far as I know, the second brother has never made any edict during his lifetime, that is, last night, the second brother also mentioned that he had not thought it through the succession to the throne, I would like to ask, where did this edict come from?"

Song Miaoer appeared at the door of the Long Live Palace, at this time, she had already changed into a filial piety dress, plain clothes like snow, lined with pear blossoms and rain, but added a bit of pitiful charm.

It's just that her eyes are like this snowy weather, very cold and cold.

walked in front of the three of them, handed the secret edict in his hand to Zhao Pu, glanced at King Jin, and sneered: "Whether the edict is true or false, Zhao Xiang can naturally tell the difference." "

Zhao Pu opened the secret edict and looked at it for a long time, then stretched out in front of King Jin and Wang Jien, and said: "This is indeed the handwriting of the first emperor, and this private seal has always been carried by the first emperor, and judging from the handwriting and private seal, it should not have been written down in the past two days." "

King Jin and Wang Jien can naturally see this.

Wang Jien couldn't say much, but King Jin knew that if he approved the edict at this time, everything would be over, and sneered: "The handwriting can be imitated, but this matter doesn't make sense, Dezhao is the eldest son, how can the second brother pass the throne to Defang." "

Liu Lang suddenly drew his sword out of the sheath, pointed at the king of Jin, and shouted: "King Jin, you are so bold, the queen mother is here with the edict of the first emperor, Zhao Xiang and Wang both know that it has been verified and correct, you have repeatedly doubted the edict of the first emperor, and you do not respect the queen mother, what should you be guilty of?"

Song Miao'er stretched out her hand to remove Liu Lang's long sword, and reprimanded: "Hugh has to be presumptuous! The King of Jin is the first emperor to be sealed, and he is above the hundred officials, and he has done his best to make great contributions to my Great Song Dynasty, and the King of Jin is just sad about the death of his brother, and he is worried about the Great Song Sheji, so he has lost his honor in front of the first emperor and the new monarch, how can he easily add the crime." "

Liu Lang withdrew his long sword and waved his hand to confess.

Song Miao'er's words were sandwiched between guns and sticks, and King Jin had no way to answer at all, but just glanced at Liu Lang hatefully.

He recognized Liu Lang's clothes and knew that it was Wu Desi's person, but he didn't know him.

People he doesn't know should be nothing in Bianjing, in the court, in the locality, or in the army.

But at this moment, he vaguely felt that the situation had evolved to the point where he was so bad that he was afraid that it had a lot to do with the little person in front of him.

It's just that at this moment, he is no longer in the mood to pursue these things.

King Jin looked at his toes, his brain spinning rapidly, looking for an opportunity to turn the tables.

After years of planning and exhausting countless efforts, it is clear that everything is under control, and only the last step is missing, he is naturally even more unwilling, and he will not give up easily.

However, there was not much time left for him, and before Xue Juzheng and other civil and military officials arrived, another little man of Wudesi who was unknown to the King of Jin came to the Long Live Palace.

King Jin's pupils shrank sharply.

Of course, King Jin didn't know each other, but he had just seen each other.

That person came down from the Xuande Gate Gate, and with his bare hands, he stopped a group of dead soldiers that he had spent a lot of effort to cultivate.

The man was covered in blood, dragging in his right hand a man who was also covered in blood, drooping his head, and had passed out.

The man casually threw the man in front of him, saluted Song Miao'er and said, "The three commanders of the Minister Wude Division have made Ye Changqing see the Queen Mother, and the minister has something important to report." "

Song Miao'er sighed, looked the other party up and down, waved her hand and said: "The matter is urgent, there is no need to be polite, if there is anything, just say it." "

Ye Changqing said loudly: "The minister accused the King of Jin of poisoning and killing the first emperor, and asked the Queen Mother and the official family to issue an order to arrest the King of Jin and put him in prison, pending the trial of the Division, which is a typical example." "

King Jin said angrily: "Huangkou Xiaoer, everyone in the world knows that I have a deep relationship with my second brother, how can you be framed here." "

Ye Changqing turned his head to look at King Jin, and said disdainfully: "King Jin said that I framed me, you don't know this person, right?"

Ye Changqing pointed to the man on the ground and said coldly: "Cheng Dexuan, the henchman of King Jin known to the world, is good at medicine and medicine, what the world doesn't know is that he is better at mixing poisons." He has personally admitted that it is you, the king of Jin, who asked him to mix poison, and then you mixed the poison in wine for the first emperor to drink. Moreover, when I was in Luoyang, I checked the body of the first emperor, and at that time, he was already chronically poisoned, and there was no cure for it. If it weren't for that, the First Emperor would have made you the emperor's younger brother long ago. It's a pity that you are too anxious, the first emperor is in strong health, and he is in the prime of life, you can't wait and don't want to wait, so you think of using chronic poison to slowly erode the life of the first emperor. The first emperor missed the brotherly feelings too much, and believed in you too much, and by the time he found out about the poisoning, it was too late. "

King Jin stared at Ye Changqing, suddenly laughed, stroked his palms and praised: "It is worthy of being a person from Wu Desi, it sounds like it is true, but unfortunately, you have no evidence, even if you buy Cheng Dexuan to frame me together, you will condemn me just by his words, I am afraid that it will be difficult to block the mouth of the world." "

Song Miao'er frowned, the foundation of King Jin is too deep, if there is no more conclusive evidence, before the new emperor and himself can not stabilize the situation, he dares to deduct such a big crime and ask him for the crime, I am afraid that it will cause turmoil in the entire Great Song Dynasty.

Zhao Pu took a step forward and said: "Queen Mother, the King of Jin is the sibling of the first emperor and the important minister of the country. Lao Chen was once subject to the first emperor Longen, so it is better to take the King of Jin into custody first, and the old minister will personally try the case. "

King Jin scolded secretly in his heart, and at this time he had to speak, and hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Queen Mother, the gap between the minister and Zhao Pu is a well-known thing, although the minister has a clear conscience, he is also afraid of the villain's framing." "

Zhao Defang wore a crown, walked out of the Long Live Palace, and said: "The first emperor has just died, and he must not want to see our uncle and nephew kill each other here, but the matter accused by Commander Ye is very important, and it must be investigated to find out, so that I can explain to the first emperor, the queen mother, the imperial uncle, myself, the hundred officials, and the entire people of the Great Song Dynasty." Liu Lang, I now appoint you as the deputy envoy of the Wude Division, and have full authority to investigate the case of Ye Changqing's accusation that King Jin poisoned the first emperor, and allow you to act cheaply. "

Liu Lang bowed and thanked him, and then with a wave of his hand, the two personal servants stepped forward and escorted King Jin down with his backhand.

Liu Lang winked at Ye Changqing and walked behind King Jin.

The other two officials picked up Cheng Dexuan, who was on the ground, and followed behind Liu Lang.

Zhao Defang looked at Ye Changqing and said coldly: "Ye Changqing, if it is found out that you are framing the emperor's uncle, I will behead you for questioning, if the emperor's uncle is really a wolf and poisons the first emperor, you will be counted as a great merit, and you will be rewarded together with your previous merits, you will go down and deal with your injuries first."
