Concubine Hanhan's Concubine Gongdou

Chapter 624
The whole capital suddenly exploded.

The last time the capital was so lively was the re-examination at the Imperial College Shanxue Square, this time it was even worse.

The common people passed Zhao's and Xue's mansions specially, and they all took a sip. Those who had money at home took out a few eggs from their bosoms, smashed them quickly, and left after smashing them. I also contributed my own strength and threw away the dried dung.

The people in Beijing did what they could, and offered incense to pray for blessings one after another, praying to God, God bless the emperor, and the temples in the suburbs of Beijing became much more prosperous.

The common people were full of enthusiasm, and they all demanded that Zhao Zhong and Xue Ping should be punished.

Xue Ping, Zhao Zhong and the others were like rats crossing the street, suffering unspeakably, entering and leaving the mansion as if they were thieves.

Xue Ping was furious, and wanted to find Xu Hu and let Xu Hu take care of these generals, but Xu Hu reported his illness and was resting in the mansion, and he couldn't find anyone at all, so he went to the general's mansion to find someone, but was also stopped. The person who asked Xu's mansion only said that the general was sick and could not see guests, which would make his condition worse, so he was turned away.

Some sharp-eyed people recognized them, they were the treacherous ministers known to everyone in the capital, someone yelled, treacherous ministers came to the general's mansion to persecute the general, and wanted to make the general die in peace.

Well, now Xu Hu didn't dare to look for him anymore, Xue Ping was so angry that he vomited blood and ran away in embarrassment.

These are all later stories.

But at this time, Zhang Qing saw with his own eyes that the group of generals were looking for trouble, and the people around him were also talking about it. He was startled, and suddenly figured out something.

This is exactly the plan of Long Live Lord, let Xu Hu lie on the bed, and can't control others. In order to stand out for Xu Hu, these generals stick to Xue Ping and Zhao Zhong like a dog's skin plaster, making them restless and have no time to care about him.

This is a conspiracy, a naked conspiracy. Even if Xue Ping and Zhao Zhong know that Xu Hu is pretending to be sick, even if they know it is wrong, there is nothing they can do. Even if you go to heaven, you can't cure these generals of any crimes.

More importantly, this matter is full of turmoil, and the pressure brought by the generals and the people is huge. In order to quell this matter, Xue Ping must make a decision as soon as possible. If he wants to make the layout slowly as before, it is a dream. Slow down, and the people will eat it. over him.

What's more, Xue's house was a little disturbed, and they were stared at by a group of people openly, with their hands tied, and they had to think again and again about what they wanted to do, which was very difficult.

Having figured this out, Zhang Qing smiled slightly, said goodbye to Chu Yuanzheng at the gate of the Xu Mansion, and sent someone to send Chu Yuanzheng back, and he also went back to the palace for business.

And the most crucial point is that Zhang Qing didn't know that the emperor's move was to make Xue Ping fall into the quagmire, nail it on top of this matter, let him devote all his energy and attention to this matter, If you are exhausted and exhausted, you will not be able to notice the movements in Liaobei.

While almost everyone in the capital knew about it, Xue Ping naturally knew about it a long time ago.

At this time, his face was sullen and his heart fluctuated, obviously he was very angry.

Xue Changgui, the son of the family, is Xue Ping's confidant, loyal and devoted to Xue Ping's news.

At this time, he stood in front of Xue Ping and said respectfully: "Master, the news has spread outside, and even Xia Lei who has been to the empress's palace at what time is clear about how to design and murder the emperor's heir. Many of our strategies are compatible with ours, and some of them are only clear to Xia Lei, Xia Lei must have betrayed."

These details, if not for Xia Lei's rebellion, how could they be so clear, and it is impossible for the noble concubine to say it herself.

Xue Ping stared fiercely at the desk and did not speak a word. Hearing this, his breathing became more rapid, apparently he had been enduring it all the time.

Xue Changgui knew that Xue Ping didn't believe it, and even he didn't believe that Xia Lei would betray him, but all signs showed that Xia Lei did.

Afraid that he would be more passive if he was late, he continued: "Xia Lei first took the initiative to say that the palace is strictly controlled, and he was not allowed to contact him. Presumably it was to paralyze us. Now that we can't contact him, and such a big incident happened, doesn't it mean that he has already Just betrayed the master?

Xue Ping slapped the table and said angrily: "These old men know it, but they just can't figure out why he would betray this old man. Could it be that his wife, children, old and young, are all gone?"

That's right, Xia Lei was a man with a wife and son outside the palace. Back then, the world was chaotic and he committed the crime of beheading. In order to avoid the disaster, Xue Ping gave him a way out and let him enter the palace as a eunuch.

What people who become eunuchs want most is to carry on the family line, and they don't even have to die, just for the sake of continuing the incense behind them.

Now his wife and children are all in Xue Ping's hands, that's why Xue Ping couldn't figure out why Xia Lei would rebel.

Xue Changgui said: "Outsiders don't know, this world is only in charge of punishments and various methods of the Department of Criminal Affairs, and it can be compared with the Department of Internal Guards. Maybe it's because he showed signs of incompetence, was arrested, and was afraid of being in charge of the Department of Criminal Affairs. Maybe I betrayed my master for my life."

He earnestly persuaded: "Master, don't forget that in order to survive, this person promised you to cut off the root of his descendants and enter the palace. It's time to make a decision. The news that came out has a meaning in every sentence, so don't do it again." What, Long Live Lord is probably going to condemn the empress..."

"Why panic, haven't you decided yet?" Xue Ping scolded angrily.

This is the second question he can't figure out. If Xia Lei betrayed him, why does every sentence in the news secretly point to his daughter instead of him?

He couldn't see the situation more and more clearly, whose handwriting was it to point the finger at his daughter from Concubine De?

Is it Xu Hu, or Concubine Xu De, or... the emperor?
Thinking of the last possibility, he felt flustered and short of breath, and hurriedly restrained himself not to scare himself and lose his footing.

Xue Ping raised the confusion in his heart one by one, and analyzed it with Xue Changgui.

Xue Changgui's heart skipped a beat, and there were some things that he couldn't figure out. During Xue Ping's narration, he suddenly figured it out.

He hurriedly expressed his opinion to Xue Ping:
The current news can only point to Xia Lei alone, and it doesn't say that the imperial concubine is the mastermind behind the scenes.

With the temperament of today's holy majesty, according to the violent and violent methods, he would not do anything redundant at all, and he would not startle the snake beforehand, let such vague news spread, but arrest people directly after the evidence is convincing. No such leeway will be left.

Could it be this possibility? Xia Lei did betray the Xue family for some reason, but he was worried that the master did not tell the truth, and the people behind the scenes who really wanted to deal with the imperial concubine and empress, so they pointed the finger at the empress.

And deliberately spread the news, this kind of method is very familiar, isn't it the master's method of letting everyone participate in the performance of the concubine De in the Jinluan Hall, but Xu Hu's people are locked up, and no one in the court can participate. With such a clumsy method, he forced the empress to death in his own way.
