Rebirth of the Poisonous Girl

Seeing the middle-aged eunuch suddenly throw away his sword, with a relieved smile on his face, Mo Xuan frowned, but the middle-aged eunuch had hurt someone Xi Yan cared about, and he was Lin Yufeng's most skilled minion. Naturally, he would not let the middle-aged eunuch go. Just when he was about to give the middle-aged eunuch a fatal blow, an urgent voice suddenly came from behind him: "Don't kill him!" He subconsciously deflected the sword edge.

'puff!'

There was a clear sound of bone cracking, and the middle-aged eunuch's shoulder blade was pierced by Mo Xuan's soft sword. The coquettish blood spurted out like rain in the air. In addition, Mo Xuan's internal strength was too strong, even though he had already withdrawn when he stabbed the middle-aged eunuch. Part of his internal strength was lost, but the middle-aged eunuch wanted to die, so he advanced instead of retreating. Under this heavy blow, his whole body was like a fallen leaf falling to the ground in the wind, causing gusts of wind and dust to fly.

"Chen Yu!" Qing Yun stepped forward quickly and carefully checked Mo Xuan's body, making sure that he was unharmed. Qing Yun felt relieved.

Gently holding Qingyun's hand, ignoring everyone's different looks, Mo Xuan's beautiful face burst into a smile as bright as a star, with rich tenderness and determination in her eyes: "Xiyan, I said I would give you and your Long Ying vented his anger, I did it!"

"I know! I know you always do what you say!" Qingyun nodded repeatedly, her heart filled with emotion.

Because the two of them were talking in a secret voice, outsiders could only see the slight movement of their lips and could not hear anything. Although they could not hear anything, the warm and harmonious atmosphere that naturally appeared between their eyebrows and expressions made some people laugh. People felt extremely uncomfortable, such as Lin Bingquan, who snorted coldly, Zhang Zishan, whose eyes were unpredictable, and the rebellious ministers, who were all frightened, and even the loyal ministers could not help but frown.

Prime Minister Han is both talented and virtuous, and is unparalleled in his elegance. However, he has been frail and sick since childhood. Old Man Tianji has long concluded that Prime Minister Han will not live to be twenty-five years old. However, the Ninth Princess is the successor to the emperor, and she has always been single-minded and persistent in her feelings. Coupled with her tenacity, If the Ninth Princess insists that Prime Minister Han is the only one, wouldn’t it be...

With his eyes slightly lowered, Taifu Han felt both relieved and worried.

Looking at the two people who were deeply in love, Sima Rui's resolute lips raised a faint smile, and the people standing around him seemed to warm up.

And this warm and beautiful scene deeply burned Sima Chun's eyes and hurt his heart. One of his skinny hands was holding the eunuch's hand, and the other hand holding the brocade handkerchief lightly covered his lips, trying his best to restrain the constant surge of pain. There was a fishy sweet taste in the throat, and the eyes were dim and lonely, with a hint of jealousy mixed in.

Suddenly, Mo Xuan's voice with unclear intentions came to his ears: "Why did Prince Chun stop me from killing him?" Sima Chun suddenly trembled.

He raised his eyes and glanced at Mo Xuan. Mo Xuan's eyes were bottomless, and the corners of his lips were slightly raised, not smiling. Sima Chun's slightly pale face couldn't help but darken. He turned to look at Qing Yun and saw that her face was calm and calm, and she couldn't tell. What was she thinking? The sadness and desolation suddenly struck Sima Chun's heart. He moved his eyes with difficulty to look at the middle-aged eunuch lying on the ground. The middle-aged eunuch also happened to look up at him. The indescribable complex look in his eyes made Sima Chun just I feel like my breath is suffocating.

For some reason, when he saw Han Mingji stabbing the middle-aged eunuch with his sharp and soft sword, but the middle-aged eunuch actually gave up resistance and went to die calmly, his heart ached inexplicably, as if he was about to lose something important, so he subconsciously Screamed out in surprise.

Now facing Mo Xuan's questioning and everyone's surprised and suspicious expressions, he naturally couldn't express the strange feeling in his heart that he had never had before and that even he couldn't understand.

Instinctively, he glanced at the middle-aged eunuch again. The blood gurgling out was shocking. His face was as white as paper. Only his eyes were bright and deep, as if he could see into his soul. In an instant, a fishy sweetness surged into his throat. Sima Chun

He forced himself to swallow, his voice was indifferent and cold.

"Although the mother-in-law was subdued, she has always been paranoid and has been in the harem for many years. Her power cannot be underestimated. However, the mother-in-law kept him by her side without telling everyone. She must know a lot of secrets, so she kept him and took the opportunity to investigate.

Only by eradicating the mother-concubine's influence can we ensure Jiuer's safety."

After the words fell, everyone's expressions suddenly changed: I didn't expect that the emperor would be so ruthless for the ninth princess!

"Why did King Chun conclude that this person would truthfully confess the secret of the guilty concubine?" the Protector of the State asked in return.

"Just because he tried to dissuade the mother and concubine before, it can be seen that he is not a very evil person!" Sima Chun said meaningfully: "Besides, all the purple guards under Jiu'er are masters of torture. Even the most powerful ones, I believe

Within three days, he will be crying and begging for mercy with tears and snot in his nose, and there will be even more ways to prevent him from dying!"

Looking at Sima Chun's thin profile, Qingyun's dark eyes were as deep as ink, and a complex emotion arose in her heart.

The middle-aged eunuch closed his eyes after hearing this, hiding the sadness and regret in his eyes.

Knowing that Sima Chun's words were reasonable, and seeing Qing Yun's silence, Mo Xuan endured the sour taste in his heart, walked up to the middle-aged eunuch, reached out and tapped his acupuncture points to stop the bleeding and at the same time disabled his martial arts, and then took out a

The elixir was forced into his mouth, and then he ordered two secret guards to take him to the Luoxia Palace dungeon.

Qingyun glanced at the frightened rebellious minister with clear eyes, Qingyun glanced at Lin Bingquan with deep meaning, and finally fell on Zhang Zishan.

"As a minister, Mr. Zhang did not think about sharing the king's worries and benefiting the people, which is the first crime; he ignored the law, accepted bribes, and formed a party for personal gain, which is the second crime; he allowed Zhang Lianwu to join Juechen Palace with the intention of shaking up the country, which is the third crime.

; Knowing clearly that Zhang Lianwu had ulterior motives, not only did he not

Knowing the advice, but instead aiding the tyrants and causing chaos beyond the control, the fourth crime; taking advantage of one's power to secretly embezzle the treasury's silver, the amount is up to tens of millions, the fifth crime;...Such numerous crimes, even if I kill you ten times a hundred times, it will be a crime

It’s not enough to quell the anger and resentment of the people!”

As Qingyun exposed each of Zhang Zishan's crimes, everyone's expressions changed again and again, especially when Zhang Zishan used his position to embezzle tens of millions of treasury. Not to mention those loyal ministers, even Lin Bingquan had a look on his face.

Shock and disbelief.

Zhang Zishan was just a dog he raised, but this low-key dog ​​actually betrayed him, tried to compete with him for power, and even embezzled the treasury under his nose, but he was completely unaware of it.

He has really lost his sight over the years.

The cold and cold tone and the detailed cross-examination sent chills down Zhang Zishan's spine, and his face turned pale, but he pretended to be calm and said: "The Ninth Princess said that the minister embezzled the treasury, where is the evidence? There is no evidence, even if it is the Ninth Princess, there is no evidence."

You can’t slander a humble minister!”

"Evidence? Slander?"

With a cold smile, Qingyun took a few steps in the direction of Zhang Zishan. There seemed to be an invisible pressure, and Zhang Zishan couldn't help but take a few steps back.

Mo Xuan, Lan Jue, Wuying and the secret guards closely guarded Qingyun.

"Many of the ministers present have watched me grow up. When have you ever seen me slandering any minister at will?"

The loyal ministers naturally said in unison: "No!"

The rebellious ministers also shook their heads.

It is known throughout the world that the Ninth Princess was taught by the late Emperor himself since she was a child. She has always acted in the most fair and wise manner, and she has never wronged anyone.

In fact, Zhang Zishan regretted it as soon as the truth came out.

After all, no one has died unjustly at the hands of the Ninth Princess. Even though she knew that Lin Bingquan had committed countless crimes and was the biggest sycophant and scourge in the court, in the absence of conclusive evidence, the Ninth Princess had always refrained from revealing anything. .

But at that moment, the life and death of him and the entire family was related to the honor and disgrace, so the rebuttal words naturally blurted out, but pushed himself into a desperate situation.

At this time, when he heard the people's accusations and saw the strange expressions of his party members, Zhang Zishan's already pale face became even paler and frightened.

"Since Mr. Zhang wants evidence, I will give you the evidence so that everyone present can see whether I have slandered you!" After Qingyun said that, he took out a few pieces of paper from his sleeves, and Lan Jue stepped forward to take them. After passing the paper, Qingyun waved his hand, then took a few steps forward and personally handed the paper to Zhang Zishan's hand.

Taking it with trembling hands, Zhang Zishan only glanced at it, his face suddenly turned pale and colorless, a big cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and his whole body was shaking like a sieve.

This is not an ordinary piece of paper at all, but torn from a book he kept deep in the dark room of his study. It records his unknown secrets, including every sum of money he embezzled from the treasury. Once the amount and purpose are made public, even if he dies, he will be scorned and scorned by the world, and will be infamy for thousands of years.

His vision went dark, and Zhang Zishan slumped to the ground, his pale face filled with despair and despair. The papers in his hand were scattered at his feet.

Except for his wife, outsiders don't know that the reason why he was able to rise to the top and finally sit in the position of Minister of the Ministry of Revenue was all because of Wu'er's advice and advice. Even when he joined Lin Bingquan, even though Lin Bingquan wanted to win over him, every step of the way failed. In Wu'er's calculation, even Lin Bingquan, who was as cunning as a fox, did not notice anything strange.

Wu'er is not here and he is at a loss. What should he do?

Normally, the eunuch should have informed Wu'er, but Wu'er hasn't come yet. Could something have gone wrong? Or...

No! It won’t!

Although Wu'er is cold-hearted and cruel, but she still cares about family ties. Wu'er must be on her way here at this moment, that must be the case!

But then I remembered that when the imperial concubine and Lin Bingquan forced them to hand over their wives, Wu'er actually agreed without thinking. As a result, his wife who had been with him for many years ended up being humiliated to death and her body was thrown into a mass grave. , he wanted to secretly bring back his wife's bones and bury them in the Zhang family's ancestral grave, but Wu'er actually stopped him forcefully, causing his wife to become a lonely ghost and never rest in peace.

The miserable appearance of his wife when she died seemed to appear in front of him. Zhang Zishan, who had just believed that Wu'er would come to save him, was shaken again. A bone-chilling chill quickly spread from the soles of his feet to the top of his head. Despair and panic also swept through his body and mind.

Just when Zhang Zishan was despairing, he accidentally saw that the handwriting on a piece of paper scattered at his feet seemed to be somewhat different.

Doubtful, or to be precise, Zhang Zishan, who was unwilling to be defeated and died like this, hurriedly picked up the piece of paper. When he saw the content on it clearly, his originally dull eyes lit up again.

Suddenly looking up at Qingyun, Zhang Zishan shook the paper in his hand and was so excited that he couldn't speak incoherently: "Nine, Princess Ninth...this is not Wei Chen's notes...someone framed Wei Chen to blame ...Weichen didn't...didn't take so much money from the treasury..."

"take?"

Looking down at the inexplicably excited Zhang Zishan from a high position, Qingyun's eyes and brows contained a sharp and cold edge, and the innate imperial domineering energy burst out from his whole body. Everyone trembled involuntarily, and everyone felt in awe.

"There has been a saying since ancient times: taking without asking is considered stealing! According to the law, the lighter punishment is a stick of thirty pieces, and the severe punishment is exiled for three thousand miles or beheaded in public! The silver taels from the national treasury belong to the court and the people of the country, not to you, Zhang Zishan, personally. , but you took advantage of your position to line your own pockets, which is an even greater crime!"

Zhang Zishan was immediately speechless.

Taking the piece of paper in Zhang Zishan's hand, Qingyun looked around at everyone, and finally fell on him: "No one framed you. Every sum of money on this piece of paper was made by me on your behalf." Record it and use it as evidence to accuse you!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions changed, and they looked at Qingyun with frightened and confused eyes.

"Nine, nine princesses..."

Looking at Qingyun with wide eyes, Zhang Zishan's pale lips parted, but before he could say anything, Qingyun said coldly: "The day before I left the capital, I personally checked the treasury with you and compared the account books. Lihe's account books clearly show that there are still 58,420,000 taels of silver and 35 million taels of gold;

Last night, I went to the treasury to do a careful inventory, and found that there was less than 30 million taels of silver and less than 10 million taels of gold.

You said you didn’t embezzle so much silver from the treasury, so where did the short silver taels go? Could it be that those silver taels grew wings and flew out of the heavily guarded treasury?”

"Wei Chen..."

"Also, I assisted Emperor Zhou and Emperor Liang to quell the civil strife. Emperor Zhou and Emperor Liang each presented me with five million taels of silver as a token of their gratitude. Of Emperor Zhou's five million taels of silver, I gave out two million of them. Two taels of silver will be awarded to the soldiers guarding the border. The remaining three million taels of silver will be transported back to the capital by Dingyuan Bo Duan Fanghong, who personally leads the 10,000 Ningyuan Army soldiers to fill the national treasury. The book is given to me!"

Qingyun took out a piece of paper for the Household Department from his sleeve and handed it to Lan Jue. Lan Jue then walked around in front of the ministers with the piece of paper. It was indeed Zhang Zishan's note, and the amount of silver and red were written on it. The seal fully proves that what Qingyun said is true.

"As for the five million taels of silver belonging to Emperor Liang, before I could arrange for them to be transported back to the capital, news came that the late emperor was seriously ill, so I made other arrangements!" Looking at the ashen-faced Zhang Zishan, he said lightly Yun said solemnly: "Now that the evidence is conclusive, Zhang Zishan, do you still want to quibble?"

He slumped to the ground like a pile of mud, Zhang Zishan's eyes wandered: It's over, everything is over...

"Come here, take the criminal Zhang Zishan into custody in Tianlao, and he will be executed at a selected date! His accomplices will be handed over to the three departments for trial before making a decision!"

"According to the order!"

After hearing this, the ministers who were attached to Zhang Zishan all turned pale as snow, and they were helpless and allowed themselves to be escorted or carried to the prison by the Imperial Guards.

However, in just over an hour, Qingyun swiftly and resolutely dealt with the two factions of rebellious ministers, and the loyal ministers were naturally delighted.

Lin Bingquan's party members were panicked, and they all looked at him eagerly and worriedly, secretly praying that he could resolve the predicament at hand, otherwise they would definitely end up with the same fate as the previous two factions.

I had known for a long time that the Ninth Princess seemed to have become a different person since Jiji last year, smart, wise and decisive in killing, but she could easily get rid of Lin Yufeng, Zhang Zishan and their gang members like today, and so on. Lin Bingquan was deeply shocked by his calm mind and careful thinking.

But the so-called ginger is still spicy! He didn't believe that a mere yellow-haired girl could fight against an old fox like him who had become a spirit!

Seeing Qing Yun looking at him, those dark eyes were bottomless, making it difficult to see the contents clearly, but they seemed to contain too much insight and too much clarity. For a moment, Lin Bingquan felt like he was out of touch. He was exposed in front of Qing Yun with all his clothes on, and felt inexplicably scared.

Although she wanted to cut this rebellious minister and traitor who had poisoned his father and brought trouble to Chao Gang into pieces with a thousand knives, Qing Yun still just looked at him quietly, her beautiful and elegant face as quiet as a pool of water, and she did not eradicate the two factions. Ni Chen's pride and arrogance did not show any hatred towards Lin Bingquan.

The two people looked directly at each other, both pursed their lips and said nothing.

Whether it was the loyal ministers or Lin Bingquan's party members, they looked at Qingyun and then at Lin Bingquan, and they all remained silent.

The golden-red and silver-white warm sun shines on the earth, and the magnificent palaces stand majestically. The breeze blowing by is mixed with a chilling coldness, and the atmosphere is quiet and eerie.

I don't know whether it was because he was not as energetic as he used to be as he got older, or because he felt scared under the gaze of Qingyun's eyes as deep as the sea. Lin Bingquan was the first to be defeated. He slightly opened his eyes and said in a sinister tone: "I don't know what the Ninth Princess will come up with next." Evidence against the veteran?"

"What crime does Taiwei Lin think he has committed?" Qingyun smiled faintly and asked without answering.

"you......"

In front of all the ministers, a yellow-haired girl overturned an entire army. Lin Bingquan, who had always had a smooth sailing and was accustomed to being a self-centered person, suddenly felt ashamed. He stared at Qingyun, who had a calm expression: "Old minister, I have always been loyal to the late emperor. , How could he possibly commit any crime if he devoted himself to the imperial court?"

Hearing that Lin Bingquan was brazenly flaunting himself, the loyal ministers were all furious.

But his party members felt extremely ashamed and lowered their heads one after another, trying their best to hide their presence.

"Really?" Qingyun raised her eyebrows and said calmly.

"Of course!" Glancing at Sima Chun who was standing next to Qingyun, Lin Bingquan turned to look at Qingyun: "What the Ninth Princess wants to say is nothing more than the old minister's inheritance of the throne. I guess the emperor didn't tell you that the old minister has the emperor's own handwriting and stamp. After receiving Yuxi’s imperial edict, it is only natural that the old minister will inherit the throne!”
