"What did you say?"

Hearing the words of Captain Yulin Guard, Emperor Yongping's expression instantly became very sharp.

No killing intent?

Without killing intent, how did his mother die?

His mother did not die with one arrow, but with three arrows.

If there is no deep hatred and great hatred, why would he be so cruel to her mother?

"Holy!"

The eldest princess saw that Emperor Yongping obviously wanted to take out the anger of the Yulin Guard Captain, so she hurriedly spoke up and stopped Emperor Yongping who wanted to be angry.

"If this discovery is true, then, at least one thing can be confirmed. The purpose of the empress dowager is very clear!"

After stopping Emperor Yongping, the eldest princess waved to the captain of the Yu Linwei again, and said, "Go back first, and continue to lead people to track down the assassin's clues!"

"Yes!"

"I will retire at the end!"

This Captain Yulin Wei is not stupid either. When Emperor Yongping was angry, he could feel it. And what the eldest princess means to stop Yongping Emperor, he is also clear.

It was at this moment that he felt more grateful to the eldest princess in his heart.

Coincidentally, this gratitude was exactly what the eldest princess wanted.

Don't look at the eldest princess, who has mastered the Imperial City Division under the trust of Emperor Yongping, and has a certain military power in her hands. But if the eldest princess wants to go further, then she must take down the thirty-six guards of the North and South Second Battalion.

Among the thirty-six guards of the North and South Second Battalion, the most important is the Yulin guard.

Yulin Guard, guarding the imperial city.

Most of the children are from extraordinary backgrounds.

If you can master Yu Linwei, the prestige of the eldest princess in the court is bound to increase to a terrifying level.

Emperor Yongping did not realize that there was anything wrong with his behavior, nor did he realize the little calculus of the eldest princess.

Even at this moment, Emperor Yongping is still grateful to the eldest princess.

"Aunt, is it really possible that King Yan did this?"

"I'm still a little suspicious!"

Emperor Yongping really didn't believe in the judgment of the eldest princess.

After all, when King Yan brought troops into the palace, if he wanted to avenge his parents, he could have done it at the time, so why wait until now?

"Your Majesty, if it was before, I would be a little suspicious."

"But the news brought back by the captain of Yu Linwei just now made the minister firm up his judgment."

"Even if King Yan didn't do this, King Yan was definitely an insider."

"The defense layout in the palace is much tighter than in previous years. However, the killer entered the palace easily, and even found the Queen Mother's bedroom without any delay."

"It can be seen that this person must be very familiar with the palace."

The eldest princess has now made up her mind, and she must put this charge on King Yan's head.

Only in this way can she be completely free from future troubles.

The King of Yan is devoted to love and righteousness.

If she takes action against Emperor Yongping, then King Yan is likely to jump out and help Emperor Yongping. You must know that although King Yan's parents were murdered by the late emperor, King Yan and Emperor Yongping grew up together, and this brotherhood is always there.

Of course, it is also possible that King Yan will not take action.

But even if it is possible, the eldest princess will be completely annihilated by him.

"Aunt, even your analysis is correct, but why must it be King Yan?"

"There are many people who are familiar with the palace, not necessarily King Yan."

"Aunt, don't talk about this matter. If there is no solid evidence that the assassin is related to King Yan, I don't believe that this is what King Yan did!"

Even if the eldest princess said the truth, Emperor Yongping still did not believe that this was done by King Yan. He did have many shortcomings as an emperor, and he was very jealous of King Yan for a time, but his brotherhood to King Yan was always there.

Speaking of which, Emperor Yongping is really contradictory.

On the one hand, he was afraid that King Yan was better and more popular than him, and worried that King Yan might replace him on the throne.

On the other hand, Emperor Yongping felt that King Yan was his brother, and their brotherhood was more important than anything else.

Under the influence of such a mentality, Emperor Yongping's attitude towards King Yan seemed a little neurotic.

When the eldest princess heard the words of Emperor Yongping, her expression was stunned for a moment, but soon, she returned to normal, and respectfully responded to Emperor Yongping's explanation.

It's just that the promise was good on the lips, but the eldest princess had other thoughts in her heart, and her heart to get rid of King Yan became more intense.

Under the circumstance that the Queen Mother was killed, under the premise that King Yan had a great possibility according to her description, Emperor Yongping could still hold it and maintain basic trust in King Yan, which undoubtedly proved the eldest princess. Dread the correctness.

Emperor Yongping bet that King Yan had such trust, so King Yan must have the same for Emperor Yongping.

After coming out of the palace, the eldest princess quickly returned to Dingguo Gongfu.

Not long after the eldest princess returned to Dingguo Gongfu, Captain Yulin Wei, who had previously reported the latest discovery to Emperor Yongping in Qiantian Hall, came to ask for an interview.

"Please come in!"

The eldest princess pondered for a while, and asked the female guard beside her to clear the captain of the Yulin guard.

"Last General Chi Jun sees Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess!"

"Xiaowei Chi doesn't need to be polite, please take a seat!"

The eldest princess looked like a corporal Li Xian, and asked the people around her to prepare chairs.

"Just stand at the end!"

Chi Jun echoed back quickly. He came to see the eldest princess to express his gratitude. At the same time, he also came to report the latest discovery he did not report to the eldest princess.

"His Royal Highness, the eldest general, found this when he was tracing the whereabouts of the assassin!"

Chi Jun took out a small object from his arms, bowed slightly, raised his hands, and passed it to the eldest princess through the female guard beside the eldest princess.

"what is this?"

The eldest princess looked at the diamond-shaped object presented by Chi Jun and frowned slightly. This object looked like a dagger, but it was different from a dagger.

"Go back to Your Highness, this thing is called Kuwu, and it is a hidden weapon commonly used by ronin in Japan!"

Chi Jun responded in a low voice.

"You mean that the assassin who killed the Queen Mother was a Japanese ronin?"

When the eldest princess heard Chi Jun's words, her expression changed.

She wanted to take this opportunity to get rid of King Yan because King Yan might become an obstacle for her to ascend to the position of the ninth five. But if the person who assassinated the Queen Mother was a Japanese, then this matter has to be considered separately.

She really wanted to sit on the highest throne.

She also doesn't mind using all kinds of conspiracy calculations.

But there is one thing, that is, this is an internal matter of Datang, and it is not something that any outsider can mix. Not to mention the Japanese in the small land of the East, even if they are as powerful as the northern barbarians, it is not enough.

The Great Tang she wants must be a powerful Great Tang, not a Great Tang that has been plagued by foreign enemies.

"Returning to Your Highness, I will not be able to calm down whether the assassin is a Japanese or not, but one thing is certain, this Kunai is definitely owned by a Japanese, and the one who created it is also a Japanese!"

"This matter, this palace knows!"

"Xiaowei Chi, in a moment, you bring this thing into the palace to meet the Holy Master, and tell the Holy Master about your findings."

"The last general takes orders!"

Chi Jun responded respectfully, and immediately said goodbye to the eldest princess.

...

Soon, Chi Jun turned back to the palace and informed Emperor Yongping of his findings.

"I knew it, I knew it!"

After listening to Chi Jun's judgment report, Emperor Yongping immediately assumed a posture that he had already seen through everything. "You did a good job, step back, and remember to continue to track down the whereabouts at this moment!"

"The end will follow the order!"

Chi Jun agreed and left.

After Chi Jun left, Emperor Yongping immediately sent the servants of the Temple of Heaven to send out a decree, and summoned Wenwu of the Manchu Dynasty and Xungui of Beijing to come to the Temple of Heaven to discuss matters.

The queen mother was assassinated, and the assassin fled.

The atmosphere in the capital is really not peaceful, and it is no exaggeration to say that everyone is in danger.

When Emperor Yongping asked his servants to convene the ministers to discuss matters, everyone ran fast. At this juncture, as long as you are not a fool, you will understand that if you neglect it, you will never have good fruit to eat.

In less than half an hour, the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, the royal family, and the nobles in Beijing gathered in the Temple of Heaven.

The huge Qiantian Temple was instantly crowded.

Everyone looked solemn, with a sad expression on their faces.

On the dragon chair of the Qiantian Temple, Emperor Yongping sat expressionlessly, his eyes swept across everyone's faces over and over again, making the atmosphere of the Qiantian Temple even heavier.

At this time, the eldest princess was not eligible to participate.

But since she was arranged by Emperor Yongping to be in charge of the Imperial City Division, when such matters are discussed in the court, as long as the eldest princess wants to come, she can be there.

At this time, the eldest princess appeared in the Qiantian Temple, which can be said to have good reasons.

After all, the eldest princess is going to call the queen mother a sister-in-law.

Compared with Prince Yu, Prince Gong and other royal princes, the eldest princess is the sister of the late emperor. Therefore, the queen mother is naturally the sister-in-law of the eldest princess.

"After investigation by Yu Linwei, the thief who murdered the Queen Mother was a Japanese!"

"Now, the thief has escaped from the palace, dear gentlemen, do you have any advice?"

Emperor Yongping opened his mouth, but his eyes fell on the face of King Yu Zongling of the ancestral mansion.

King Yu was stared at by Emperor Yongping, so he could only take the initiative to speak, and said, "Sir, I think that since the assassin's origin has been determined, then the nine assassins should be exterminated!"

"Japanese people, people who have transformed into foreigners, came to my Tang Dynasty to study, but they didn't know how to be grateful. The minister thought that this country should be destroyed, and its clan should be destroyed!"

"The Japanese are far away from the Tang Dynasty and live on small islands overseas. How can I destroy the Tang Dynasty?"

Emperor Yongping was very satisfied after hearing what King Yu had to say. The moment he knew that the killer was a Japanese, he had the idea of ​​destroying the Japanese.

You kill my mother, I will kill your clan.

But as an emperor, Emperor Yongping still has to be named behind him. The words of this genocide must not come out of his mouth. It must be told by someone else, and this person will be the bearer of infamy.

And who is the most suitable person to carry the infamy?

After thinking about it, Emperor Yongping took aim at King Yu.

Why the King of Honor?

There are two reasons!

First, King Yu was the sect’s commander of the Zongren’s mansion. His status in the Tang Dynasty was second only to Emperor Yongping. Even many members of the training team and the royal family had more fear of King Yu than him.

This means that if King Yu has the will to change his mind, it is really possible.

Second, Yu Wang's weight is heavy enough.

Ordinary people say these words, the weight is not enough, and it is easy to be blocked by those censors who love feathers.

But King Yu was different.

As the Zongren's decree, his status in the Tang Dynasty is second only to the emperor. The emperor needs to cherish his reputation and face, but the Yuwang does not need to worry about this in many cases.

"Your Majesty, what King Yu said is not right!"

have to!

Just as Emperor Yongping was worried, after King Yu said the words of exterminating the country and the family, a censor jumped out immediately.

"The injustice has its head, and the debt has its owner!"

"Even if the empress dowager was harmed by the Japanese, but because of this, the war of revival and destruction of the country is going to be launched.

"Sir, please think twice!"

Once a censor opens his mouth, more censors follow.

In this court, if there is someone who is the most unpleasant and most difficult to deal with, it is definitely this group of censors. Among these people, there may be some people who really care about the court and the country, but more people are against it purely for the sake of opposition, for their reputation, let alone for the sake of opposition, they can still fight for the sake of impeachment. Impeach.

They impeached high-ranking officials in the court, not for the sake of justice, but purely for the sake of climbing up, to gain fame, and to quickly spread their names around the world.

But many times, these censors can easily occupy the commanding heights of morality.

For this reason, Emperor Yongping really despised these censors.

But he also understood that he could not have fired all these censors.

These censors are indeed annoying, but without the censors to deter these civil servants and generals in the court, it is impossible to control these civil servants and generals by the emperor alone.

After all, a person's energy and intelligence are limited.

How does the emperor control the court?

In a word, that is to pull one faction and fight one faction.

Only when these people in the courtroom fight, and the cranes and clams compete, can the fisherman gain.

"Sir, this minister thinks that this matter must destroy the country and the family!"

King Yu was targeted by Emperor Yongping, and he only said that he could not give up halfway.

Don't look at him as the Zongren's Zongling, but in this Tang Dynasty, the emperor is the one who really controls everything. The decree of his clan's mansion, as long as the emperor's will, can become the past tense.

And the most important point is that King Yu actually has no ambitions.

He is satisfied with what he has now and doesn't want to go further. Of course, King Yu didn't want to retreat, he just wanted to maintain his current position and come to the end of a lifetime of wealth and honor.

"The Japanese are favored by my Tang Dynasty, but they are not grateful!"

"Also, the Japanese, the country of small balls, dares to plot to assassinate my Great Tang Empress Dowager. If there is no severe punishment, who will take my Great Tang seriously in these small countries?"

"It has been said since ancient times that barbarians are afraid of power but not virtue!"

"The Tang Dynasty has been founded for a hundred years, and it is too kind to the surrounding small countries. Now, it is time for me, the Tang Dynasty, to shine."

"A few days ago, the savages in the northern mountains dared to invade my Tang Dynasty territory and slaughter my Tang people."

King Yu looked indignant and looked at the censors fiercely, "You, scholars, for the so-called benevolence and righteousness, you are supported by the people of the Tang Dynasty, but you don't think about the people of the Tang Dynasty, you, Shi Jun. Zhilu, you can’t share your lord’s worries, ask yourself, don’t you feel ashamed?”
