A storm finally came.

No matter what Daliang Chao thought about the assassination of the saint of Wantian Palace, he had to show his attitude in the end. So since that day, the whole city of God was busy, including Dali Temple. , stopped all other matters at hand, and focused entirely on the current case.

The two guards in Shendu, especially the left guard, as the direct participants in the assassination, have not been living a very good life these days. As the commander, Song Lian has entered the palace several times. Although the one who entered the palace every time His Majesty the Emperor did not show too much anger, but Song Lian could feel the suppressed emotions in the imperial study.

Is that His Majesty also enduring it?

The court dispersed this morning, and the officials left the imperial city quietly and orderly. Most of them showed no emotion on their faces, but the officials of the Three Laws Division could not help but show signs of pain. Half a month had passed since the assassination of the saint. , they arrested some people and tried some cases, but they never got the final answer. Therefore, when His Majesty the Emperor mentioned this matter again in the court today, he seemed a little dissatisfied. Several people from their respective yamen All the chief officials were fined half a year's salary, which was certainly not a big deal to them.

Their pain has another meaning.

Because of the case a few months ago, the Minister of Criminal Affairs, who was able to change from Li Shilang to Li Shangshu, painfully walked out of the main hall and glanced at the Censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, Li Shangshu, who also looked unhappy. He said to himself, "I picked up my official hat. It's no shame to lose it. But if the case can't be found out, it's not as simple as throwing away my official hat."

Today, His Majesty the Emperor is still a minor official, but that does not mean that as time goes by, His Majesty the Emperor will always be like this. You must know that His Majesty the Emperor ascended the throne as a vassal king, not to mention the process of leading the troops to conquer the divine capital. In the novel, His Majesty the Emperor showed his courage as a warrior many times. Just the few merciless cleanings after entering the divine capital were enough to prove that although His Majesty may appear gentle on the surface, in fact he is absolutely He is a resolute man.

The word "indecisive" has never had anything to do with His Majesty.

Those who became officials earlier and had experienced the period when the emperor was deposed would naturally have seen the divine capital that night, which was soaked in blood.

Du Yushi has been an official for many years, but he is a scholar at heart. He is unwilling to get involved in many things in the officialdom. Therefore, in these years, Du Yushi has spent most of his time on the three-acre land of the Du Procuratorate. , seldom care about other things. At this moment, listening to Li Shangshu's soliloquy, Du Yushi was unwilling to pay attention. He just moved a little faster, passed Li Shangshu, and walked towards the distance.

In front of them, there was a blood-red official robe. There were no officials around Han Pu, the minister of Dali Temple. I don't know how many people were full of fear of this minister of Dali Temple.

Du Yushi quickly came to Han Pu's side and said softly, "Master Han."

\u003c

br\u003e Han Pu turned his head and glanced at Du Yushi. Han Pu, who looked a little pale, nodded slightly. He had a little-known affection for Du Yushi.

The censor of the capital said straight to the point, "Do you have any clues in Dali Temple?"

Although the three law divisions and the two guards on the left and right are working hard to investigate this case, everyone with a discerning eye knows that the final one to rely on is Dali Temple.

Han Pu shook his head slowly and remained silent.

Du Yushi thought for a while, then lowered his voice and asked, "What's going on in those houses?"

No matter how fierce the storm is in the court, no matter how doubtful the ministers look, in fact everyone knows that the mastermind behind such an assassination in the city of God must be a certain practicing sect outside the country, and that practicing sect The sect's hands and feet in the divine capital naturally require a huge family to support it.

There were many aristocratic families in the Liang Dynasty, especially in Shendu. In addition to the Wei and Xie clans, there were many aristocratic families of various sizes who maintained contact with the monks from outside the country, openly or secretly.

"After checking for so long, the direction is still not clear. If Brother Fangwai really finds it, what can he do? Does His Majesty really want to take action? Except for Brother Fangwai, does Your Majesty want to check those shabby households? Are you involved in this case?"

Du Yushi looked at Han Pu with some worry on his brow.

The Liang Dynasty has been in existence for more than two hundred years, but they are still active in this world.

Yes, they are the remnants of the previous dynasty, the descendants of the royal family and high-ranking officials of the previous dynasty. Even though it has been more than two hundred years and the emperors of the Liang Dynasty have changed one after another, they are still active. He was thinking about one thing day and night, and that was how to disrupt the Liang Dynasty and how to restore the country.

Many aristocratic families in the divine capital have been around for thousands of years. They have not only experienced the current Daliang Dynasty, but also experienced the previous dynasties, and even the previous dynasties.

It is unclear whether they have some connection with the previous dynasty.

Han Pu frowned and said, "The commotion they have made over the years is not small, but it is not as big as it is now, and they usually do not choose to involve monks outside the country. After all, it will not be the imperial family that is angry. They want revenge." The best way for the country is to contact foreign countries and have their help.”

So there are two things those so-called broken households have been doing in these years, causing trouble in the Liang Dynasty, and operating outside the country, trying to gain the support of the monks outside the country.

Du Yushi sighed with emotion, "Your Majesty's will is not obvious. The ministers in the court are all guessing His Majesty's thoughts. This is what really makes people feel embarrassed. The wind and rain are like darkness, so you can't see clearly."

Han Pu smiled and said, "

Your Majesty is a holy king, and all major affairs in the world are in your mind, but he really likes to torment us ministers. "

Du Yushi said, "Your Majesty was born as a vassal prince and was originally a warrior. Over the years, he has had to suppress his nature and bring out his gentle side. It is also difficult for your Majesty."

The Liang Dynasty was open to the public, and it was not common to tease His Majesty the Emperor like this, let alone in the imperial city.

Han Pu smiled and said softly, "Chatting these few words with the Imperial Censor has made me feel less angry today."

Du Yushi smiled and said, "Master Han's anger cannot be eliminated. I still have some tea at home. Why don't you send it to Dali Temple later to help you calm down the anger?"

Han Pu sighed softly, "Master Du Yushi's thoughts are really wasted if he doesn't become the chief minister of the cabinet."

"Master Han, please don't say that. If the Chief Assistant finds out about this, I'm afraid I won't be able to survive in the Metropolitan Procuratorate."

Du Yushi narrowed his eyes and said so, but there was no sign of fear in his brows.

Han Pu said, "What an old fox."

All officials dispersed, but Song Lian was summoned to the imperial city again.

The commander of the left guard followed Eunuch Li as he walked in the imperial city, feeling a little drummed in his heart.

Li Heng walked slowly, as if he knew Song Lian's thoughts, and smiled and said, "Commander Song, don't worry too much. The one who summoned the commander into the palace today is not His Majesty, but the Queen."

Hearing this, Song Lian became even more nervous. He looked at Li Heng in front of him and asked, "Eunuch Li, why did the Queen summon you?"

After serving as an official in the dynasty for many years, Song Lian had only met the Queen at several large events, and she was always accompanied by His Majesty. As for privately, he had never met the Queen in person.

As a warrior, Song Lian naturally admired the Queen's father, the former Northern General, and also had great respect for the Queen, but he never thought that one day he could be summoned by the Queen in person.

Li Heng looked at Song Lian's nervous look and explained softly, "Commander Song, really don't be too nervous. Although His Majesty is chasing closely these days, he is still under pressure. His Majesty did not summon Commander Song just for this matter." , just to ask Commander Song some questions."

Song Lian breathed a sigh of relief and asked tentatively, "What does the Queen want to know?"

After hearing this, Li Heng did not answer, but just glanced at Song Lian.

Song Lian quickly reacted and said softly, "I made a mistake."

Li Heng shook his head.

Song Lian didn't say a word the rest of the way.

After walking through less than half of the imperial city, we arrived at the palace that was not too remote.

In front of the palace.

The empress had already been waiting for Song Lian in the hall.

"Song Lian, commander of the left guard of the city of God, pays homage to the Queen."

Song Lian quickly saluted. He still respected the queen very much.

The Queen said softly, "Get up."

Her voice was a little weak, her face was a little pale, and her body seemed to be no longer as strong as before.

"Commander Song, I have called you into the palace just for some trivial matters. I want to chat with you, so don't worry too much."

As she spoke, the Queen stood up and walked forward. Song Lian understood and hurriedly followed.

"I remember that Commander Song also seemed to have worked under my father's account."

The queen suddenly spoke in a calm voice.

Song Lian nodded and said, "When the general was alive, I served Daliang in the north."

Although the former general still had many titles, Song Lian and other warriors who followed him would only be called general.

"Most of my father's old subordinates are still in the north. It's not easy for me to see you in the capital of the gods."

The Queen smiled and said, "That's a bit biased."

Song Lian lowered his head, not daring to say anything.

"I also know that you are under a lot of pressure regarding the assassination of the saint. I will let the little girl come into the palace in a while to comfort you. I will also say something to Your Majesty. Commander Song will ask you to leave. Too worried."

Hearing this, Song Lian hurriedly said, "My Majesty, Tianen."

These days, he was indeed troubled by this matter, but he had nowhere to talk about it.

The Empress smiled and said, "These things are not of concern to me. What I want to ask you is quite ordinary. It is your deputy commander. After getting along with him, what do you think?"

Song Lian was startled and didn't know how to answer, so he bit the bullet and said, "I wonder what your Majesty is asking about?"

The Queen said calmly, "Of course it's all."

"Commander Chen is naturally a young talent. He is thoughtful, courageous and calm. He can endure hardships and has great talent. If he is sent to the north to work hard for a few days, he may become a pillar of my future."

Song Lian spoke seriously, and the more he spoke, the happier he felt.

The Queen frowned and said, "You have to be sent to the north at every turn. You don't know how dangerous it is there. Why should such an old child be left in that bitter cold place?"

Song Lian didn't expect the Queen's reaction to be so direct. She was a little distracted and said, "I made a mistake."

The queen's pale face had a little more color. Maybe she was too excited before. After she calmed down a little, she said, "Continue."
