Tang Qi Tan

In fact, after seeing several figures waiting outside the Xuanhui Hall, the last stone hanging in Jiang Tian's heart fell completely.Because the dozen or so people present were either wearing helmets or armour, or straight military uniforms, or robes with fish bags, or falcon hats with crowns...

And based on the identities of Jingzhaofu, Jinwuwei, Wudesi, etc. recognized by Jiang Tian, ​​the identities of several people gathered at the bottom of the ranks at this moment undoubtedly represent the heads of powerful departments inside and outside Xijing.And Jiang Tian was able to stand here because he had no other choice.

Or in another sense, if they all unfortunately die here, it will cause the imperial court's ability to control Xijing to drop several levels, and chaos and turmoil are likely to occur in a short period of time.It's just that everyone is standing here, but there is no chat or communication.

Instead, they kept a very subtle distance and continued silence between each other; until Jiang Tian appeared, no one nodded or looked at him one after another, which was regarded as a greeting.Then, among the crowd, he left a relatively independent gap.

With the ringing of a crisp golden bell, a group of eunuchs who stepped on small steps, like a silent breeze, suddenly appeared from every corner outside the palace; At the same place, the originally clean ground and pillars became more and more shiny.

And the second crisp golden bell rang, and these eunuchs in rough silk and brown clothes disappeared like quicksilver.They were replaced by a group of young eunuchs in ocher shirts and gray hats, and in a blink of an eye they set up the already lit beast mountain incense stoves, gold vases, jade pots and other utensils for presentation.

Immediately after the third golden bell sounded, it was the people of Susha Palace who spread out like crane wings in the court, holding peacock fans, small tuan fans, square fans, Huang Hui, Jiang Hui, Xuanwu Building and other fans; and then Groups of three or five are female historians/low-grade female officials holding precious, round boxes, round boxes, and dowries.

Then, the palace music team who appeared behind the piandian corridor at some time also began to play the air flute, Xiao, Jia, Changming and Zhongming (both horns), Dahengchui (horn flute), 筚篥 (wind instrument), etc. Here comes the vocal music.And amidst the solemn music, the curtain at the back slowly rolled up.

Then all the people present, under the guidance of the servant who sang the newspaper with Fuchen in his arms, greeted the figure vaguely sitting on the gums behind the curtain in uneven voices: "See Your Highness Supervisor... only see His Highness Wanshou Jin Kang, luckily even..."

"The lonely king...was unfortunately taken advantage of by thieves and almost fell into disaster. Fortunately... he worked hard to escape the disaster." Inside the curtain was a middle-aged nobleman wrapped in a purple fur cloak and with a sickly pale face. A difficult and weak voice said: "... What do you think?"

Although these words are light and fluffy, in the ears of most people, it is like hearing thunder in a silent place; after all, this is the most beloved brother of the same mother.If you really want to catch any one of them and hold them accountable, no one can be spared.

"Your Majesty and others are really incompetent, and His Highness has been distressed and shocked." The official who was considered the oldest and most bureaucratic at the scene immediately bowed and half-kneeled on the ground with tears streaming down his face; Don't bow down again to follow the confession.

...

"Gu Wang doesn't want to listen to your confession anymore, I just want you to say something, do you have a clue about this matter?" His Highness Jian Guo in the curtain said weakly again: "The criminals in the ban, killing indiscriminately is useless , Such a crime of treason that endangers the court and the Tian family, what have you found out!"

Everyone couldn't help hesitating when they heard the words, but immediately reported in court one after another. It was nothing more than taking this opportunity to capture how many suspects, etc., obtained some potential clues, and found some physical evidence at the scene... Finally, , it was the turn of Jiang Tian, ​​who had the lowest rank.

"The responsibility of this department is, of course I dare not slack off." Jiang Tian smiled slightly, and said unceremoniously: "It's just that the lower officials led the crowd outside at that time, and they encountered the ambush of beast ghosts, and even the inner ghosts betrayed them. ; under his command, Erlang fought hard and suffered many casualties, so he was able to fight back and win."

"Right now, our company is conducting a thorough investigation internally, in an effort to track down the person who spread the false news; there is really nothing left to do now, so we can no longer serve His Highness. What's more, when my generation entered Beijing, I was severely punished I'm not allowed to participate in the situation here, I hope His Highness will forgive me..."

However, the faces of all the people present who heard this sentence, and even the eunuchs who served under the hall, were all different and extremely exciting.When His Highness Jian Guo in the curtain heard the words, he couldn't help shouting several times in a hurry: "It's unreasonable, is there someone who wants to cover up the bandits!"

"His Royal Highness, I am afraid that Director Jiang has misunderstood something." Then, someone nearby persuaded him: "The current intention of the court and China should be to work together and coordinate the pursuit of this matter, not Do what you want; that's why His Highness summoned all the ministers and workers."

After going through a lot of playing with the muddy style; there was also a blame game between the quiet words and mutual shirk responsibility; Resigned one after another; however, Jiang Tian was quickly stopped.

"Jiang Jiansi is really outspoken!" But it was the oldest and most bureaucratic official, who was also known to be the newly appointed Zuo Shaoyin Lu Yan of Jingzhao Mansion: "It's just that the world is weird. Sometimes what you see, It may not be as good as what you have heard, if you are not careful, you can easily be taken advantage of by others!"

"Otherwise?" Jiang Tian smiled slightly, and turned back with a hint of meaning: "The princes of the Zhengshitang enlisted me to do things because of my means and ability to deal with monsters; it's not because of my age. It is on the way of being an official; why should I submit to others because of this?"

"It seems that the old man is a villain in vain." Lu Yan, who had a gray beard, laughed indifferently.He said a few more innocuous words, and saw an eunuch trotting up to catch up, gasped and said in a soft voice: "Your Highness, Your Highness, leave a message to the Supervisor for questioning..."

Jiang Tian couldn't help but move in his heart, this is the real drama.When he returned to the Xuanzheng Hall, he saw that the curtain had been lowered again; but according to Jiang Tian's magnified and strengthened perception, there were already some steady, long and powerful breathing rhythms in the hall.

...

However, at this moment, he was not so nervous.Because, after being tempered and encountered in another time and space, the suppression and threat that these existences, which are obviously similar to blood inheritance knights, have greatly shrunk, and he doesn't take them very seriously.

In other words, when he loaded the two compound modes of "detailed" and "magnified" at this moment; he was sure that he could easily knock down a whole team of armored soldiers without exposing other special abilities; The existence within a hundred steps of oneself was killed on the spot.

"Jiang Jiansi, do you know if you are the God of Yeyou?" After Jiang Tian waited quietly for a while, His Highness Jianguo behind the curtain spoke again: "According to the testimony of many people present, this person is also the biggest suspect in the crime of driving... "

"I've heard of it a little bit!" Jiang Tian replied calmly: "Maybe we met by chance, but we just don't know each other. Although the rumors are quite untrue, if there is a chance, I would like to try my skills..."

"What if the rumors are not completely untrue...?" His Highness Jian Guo behind the curtain suddenly coughed and panted heavily; He has been harmed by many armored soldiers and warriors, and he can no longer be regarded as him."

"This generation's methods are very evil. They can arrest and manipulate fire and mines out of thin air, and injure innocent people in large numbers." His Highness Jian Guo panted again: "Perhaps only the same extraordinary methods can restrain them from continuing to do evil and cause harm. .And I don’t know if the supervisor can make a living for the country and the people..."

"Your Highness, I understand what your Highness means." Jiang Tian responded with a strange and complicated mood when he heard the words: "If it really involves something evil, we will naturally have no hesitation; The expediency granted by the imperial court, and even the corresponding convenience."

When Jiang Tianbai withdrew, not only did he have an extra piece in his hand, which was said to be able to enter the palace at any time for interrogation, but he was also unexpectedly given a picture of oriole singing branches drawn by His Highness Jian Guo himself.Unlike the Emperor's Imperial Treasure, items can be auctioned for a large price.

To be honest, there is nothing more exciting than the murderer changing his identity and confronting the victim face to face.However, Jiang Tian carefully observed the other party's details, and he was indeed no different from the His Highness Jian Guo who was chased by him and fled and buried himself in the ground; but it seemed that something was missing.

For example, under the convincing and friendly surface of grace and elegance, there is the kind of hysterical sickness and madness that is hidden after being suppressed to the extreme, and the extreme self-centeredness that ignores most of the world's creatures.But in any case, this level is temporarily over.

"That's enough, let's all retreat!" When the peace in the Xuanzheng Palace was restored, an old eunuch with a wrinkled face and eyes that could hardly be opened came out from behind the curtain, and said in an unquestionable and slow tone: "Your Majesty is seriously injured. More and more; I am exhausted when I ask about things in the court."

"Elder Companion?" After everyone at the scene had dispersed, and even the closest servant retreated outside the hall, the "His Royal Highness Jian Guo" asked for instructions cautiously in a tone of relief: "My performance Is it okay? But there is no clue..."

"Thanks for your hard work." The old eunuch also squeezed out a smile from the wrinkles on his face: "If it weren't for the old man who watched His Highness grow up, it would be difficult to see your flaws. You need to continue to use your life in the future, except Except for the concubine, all visits from inside and outside must be refused due to the seriousness of the injury."

"Today, I specially arranged for Zhang Xuan to take care of you. I just hope that you will keep your mouth under the bed." The old eunuch continued to speak loudly: "In this way, the heirs she gives birth to in the future can be regarded as the children of the palace. As one of them, I will continue to enjoy wealth and wealth for generations..."

Not long after, this old eunuch came to another side hall; and several senior eunuchs present could not help but salute and respectfully say to him: "My companion, Ansheng." "My companion, Futai."However, he waved his hands with a tired face and said:

"Of course it can be used, but it needs to be used with caution; be sure to use it with caution!" A senior eunuch present quickly responded:

"How do you say that?" The old eunuch couldn't help but ask back: "Miscellaneous families have served the emperor for a day, but they are a little ignorant outside the palace."

"I heard that he has a special way of discerning, and if he is not careful, he will involve other irrelevant old right and wrong." Another eunuch also responded:

"For example, the old story of Zhenzhu Ji from Pu Wang's family was rediscovered by him alone..." Another person hastily added:
However, when he heard this sentence, the old eunuch, who could hardly see the slightest expression, suddenly twitched his eyes, and asked calmly, "What kind of relationship is this?"
