Lady forced to seek prince

Chapter 561 Excuses

The Grand Master's expression suddenly changed, and he glanced sharply at the surrounding officials. Seeing this, several officials lowered their heads, and sweat even broke out on the foreheads of the chamberlains nearby.

The Grand Master said in a deep voice: "Do you think I asked someone to do this?"

After a moment of silence, the former Zhongshu Provincial Official spoke again: "No, I will never think so."

After hearing these words and looking at the trembling looks of everyone, the grand master suddenly smiled. No matter who did this, they undoubtedly succeeded.

Even the people he trusts look like this, which shows how everyone in the world will talk about it.

The Grand Master glanced at Mr. Xue Gong, who was brought in by the Empress Dowager Feng. He followed this line and found out that he had contacts with Mr. Xue.

In other words, whether or not to investigate, it will all fall on him in the end.

"It's King Yu," someone suddenly shouted, "It must have been done by King Yu's order and put the blame on the Grand Master. There are people from King Yu in this palace..."

After the official finished speaking, he said: "Grand Master, Wei Chen thinks that we should conduct a large-scale interrogation in the palace to find out the informants planted by King Yu."

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the room reacted immediately.

The Grand Master wanted to get rid of not only the Queen Mother Feng, but also the King of Yu. If the matter could be pinned on the King of Yu, not only would the Grand Master be able to escape, but the court would also have an excuse to attack the King of Yu.

"Wei Chen reconsideration."

"The minister reconsidered."

"The King of Yu refuses to come to the capital to express his gratitude, because he has evil intentions. I will write a memorial to impeach the King of Yu at the court meeting tomorrow."

When the Grand Master listened to these words, his eyes became far-reaching until there was no more movement in the room.

"You are going to impeach King Yu before the truth has been found out? Do you think the civil and military officials are fools, or am I a fool?" The Grand Master said calmly, "If you can't find definite evidence, don't think about it. The matter fell on King Yu."

The officials looked at each other. They really couldn't understand what the grand master was thinking.You can only do what the grand master says.

"Have someone come in and take care of it." The Grand Master looked at the body of Empress Dowager Feng on the ground again. If he hesitated any longer, no matter who was responsible, the person who handled this matter would be criticized.

After all, Empress Dowager Feng is also the Empress Dowager, and it is related to the state.

After everything was arranged, the sky was getting brighter, and the death knell was heard in the Daqi Palace.

The grand master returned to the duty room to take a rest. Officials from Zhongshu Province brought another stack of memorials. The top one was from King Yu.

The grand master unfolded the memorial and immediately frowned. The memorial was very simple, just explaining one thing. King Yu came to the capital to express his gratitude.

The Grand Master almost immediately thought of King Yu's intentions. He could not come to the capital.

……

Ding'an, Ning County.

Yamen Ding came out of the Yamen office early and followed his colleagues to a tavern for a drink.

"Pity."

As the wine got fuller, some people began to talk loosely and express their innermost thoughts.

"Sixteen States, there is no us."

Several people knew what this meant. King Yu's vassal territory consisted of sixteen states, and Ding'an was not among them. It would be fine if they were far away. The Jingzhou next to them had all been crossed.

"I heard that the imperial court exempted the vassal from paying taxes for two years. The people of the vassal are blessed."

Ding Yamen nodded subconsciously. They also wanted to join the army when something happened in the northwest. Unfortunately, the court did not choose anyone from them in the end.

"Aren't you very concerned about the situation in Taozhou?" A Yamen servant patted Yamen Ding on the shoulder, "Is there anyone in your family in Taozhou?"

"No," Yamen Ding said, "Last year I met some immigrants going to Taozhou. It was really hard for those people, but I just didn't want anything to happen to them."

Ding Yamen still remembers the girl from the Zhao family who took care of the entire relocation team, old and young. That girl was the smartest person he had ever seen in his life, and he didn't know if he would have the chance to see those people again.

"I want to join the army in the vassal territory. I heard that after the imperial troops left, the vassal territory is still short of manpower." One of the officials said.Anyone who wants to achieve success in the military will think of King Yu and the Wuwei Army. They failed to escape during the war, so now they can only retreat and do the next best thing to see if they still have a chance to survive.

Judging from the news they got, the Tubo royal court has not completely calmed down yet, so if they join the armed guards, they will definitely have the opportunity to fight with them.

"This time I asked my brothers to come over for a drink, and I wanted to let them know," the yamen servant said. "I plan to leave before the end of the year. If anyone has such thoughts, come with me."

Several people looked at each other. They had elders in Ning County who could not leave. Only Ding Yamen showed hesitation. The elders in their family had passed away and they had no ties to Ning County. It was just...

"You can leave if you want?" Yamen Ding asked.

The officer's face was filled with joy: "If you have such thoughts, I will ask someone to ask you."

Ding Yamen nodded: "That's troublesome."

Several people drank another pot of wine, and then left the tavern chatting and laughing. Just as they were about to go home, they saw a group of soldiers coming out of the government office.

Ding Yamen immediately stepped forward and asked the military leader: "Where are you going?"

The military leader said: "Prince Yu was attacked on his way to Beijing. We just received the news and are preparing to leave the city to rescue the prince."

Ding Yamen and others looked shocked. They didn't expect that just when they mentioned King Yu, King Yu came.

"Let's go together." Several people followed him without hesitation.

The place where King Yu was attacked was not far from Ning County. The scouts running in front quickly discovered King Yu's whereabouts and sent the news back. Everyone did not dare to delay at all and chased him all the way.

Horse hoof marks have been found on the ground, and Yamen Ding and others became nervous. The man who had previously said that he was going to join the army in the feudal territory showed even more excitement on his face.

"Do you think that if we perform meritorious service today, can we join the Armed Guards?"

Yamen Ding shook his head: "I... don't know either." As he said this, he held the handle of the knife harder. This was indeed their chance.

"just in front."

The sound of fighting came, and everyone immediately followed the sound. The person in front even drew out the scimitar from his waist, ready to see the situation clearly before rushing forward.

Ding Yamen also made such a plan, but when he got close enough, his enthusiasm suddenly disappeared.

In front of him were corpses on the ground. A head had just been chopped off and rolled down the steep slope to the feet of Yamen Ding.

There were a few living people who were also kneeling on the ground, without any fighting spirit.

These were obviously the rebels who assassinated King Yu, because those who killed them all wore the unique armor of the Wuwei Army.

"It's done!"

The Yamen beside Yamen Ding muttered in disappointment.

Ding Yamen nodded.

Their eyes were quickly attracted by the young man on horseback. On top of the maroon horse, there was a majestic and upright figure.

That is King Yu.

King Yu said calmly: "Take these people to the prison of Ning County, let the government office interrogate them, and then send a letter to the capital, saying that the king was attacked on the way. It can be seen that this road will not be peaceful. In this case, when the rebels are all After cleaning up, I will return to the capital to thank you."

Huaiguang responded.

The military leader of Ning County did not dare to interrupt. He turned around and saw the county magistrate hurriedly approaching. He was relieved and was about to report the matter to Prince Yu, but found that Prince Yu had already turned around, obviously not planning to stay. .

The military leader was not sure what to do. Maybe God heard his thoughts, but King Yu who was about to leave suddenly stopped and glanced at them.

The military leader was happy and waited for King Yu to ask questions. No matter what King Yu said, he would respond carefully.

Just as he was thinking about it, he heard the slightly deeper voice of King Yu again: "Is your surname Ding?"
