Black Moonlight, after her robbery

The emperor squinted his eyes as he listened to Han Ying's words. There was so much complexity in his eyes, intertwined with the ambition of a woman and the connection between the eight great ships of the previous dynasty, gradually revealing a close-knit conspiracy that had been going on for many years.

He took a breath and said in a deep voice: "As you said, when Shi Shi pretended to be a cousin of the Shen family and went to Pingyang Academy to study, you already knew that she was Anyang Shi?"

"Yes."

"Then why don't you report it to Jing Zhaoyin?"

The deep hatred was like thin ice cracks on the glaze, covering the whole body in a moment of shame.

Han Ying gritted his teeth and said, "Why don't I want to report it? But the Shi family and the Shen family are colluding. The Shen family was so powerful back then that I, a commoner, couldn't compete with it. I was even framed and expelled from the capital for many years, Your Majesty!"

He raised his head and continued word by word: "Even though the statements in the hall today are mixed in truth and falsehood, the identity of Shi Tiezhen's Anyang Shi family is true! Otherwise, given Liu Wenyu's situation at the time, why would he not marry a lady from a wealthy family? Marry a Hu businessman from the Western Regions?"

"Is he really confused? Or is it because he already knew that she was the Anyang Shi clan?"

"A clan that can provide real money and silver, who can let it go without making a choice!"

The emperor's eyes were straightened, but he was not surprised by what he said. Money is the source of everything. This generous dowry is naturally better than the countless wealth of the clan.

He continued to listen to Han Ying's defense, "Your Majesty, why don't you think about it, since Liu Wenyu surrendered to you, has anything gone well in the court? The tragic death of King Gaoyang, the devolution of King Linhai, and the deaths of Queen Wencheng and Yigui, so So many coincidences always happen because of the two of them, it’s too bizarre!”

"I did try my best to get to Beijing to avenge myself. It was because I was isolated and helpless that I borrowed the help of Xiang Guo out of desperation."

"I have kept my name anonymous so far. I really feel too much pain in my heart. Even if I am selfish, removing Shi Tiezhen will be beneficial to the country."

That was his heart-wrenching complaint. The emperor didn't care at all, but his tone was cold: "Since Xiang Guo is willing to help you, what are the conditions?"

Han Ying knew that his pain was not worth mentioning in the eyes of the emperor, and all he wanted was to survive. But since he planned to find another supporter, he had to make himself valuable, otherwise he would not follow in the footsteps of Pang Tong. .

He hesitated deliberately, "This..."

Seeing that he was trying to cover up the truth, the emperor became impatient, "If you say that Xiangguo may not let you live, but if you don't say... I will definitely let you die."

Han Ying lowered his head pretending to be cowardly, "Actually, His Majesty knows what the conditions are. It is nothing more than conveying the news of Chang'an to Prince Xiang."

After saying that, he curled his lips and smiled, half raising his eyes, "But there is one thing that your Majesty will definitely be interested in."

The emperor was aroused by his tone of curiosity, "Tell me and listen."

"It's Xiao Li," Han Ying said clearly. "Xiao Li was in love with the Shi family when he was lurking in Chang'an. For this reason, he even revealed to her about the capture of the imperial city with Du Chonghui's soldiers, and even threatened to take her away from the capital after the incident was completed. Wei."

"However, Shi Shi is cunning and cunning. On the one hand, he lured the enemy with his body and took away his golden sword, pretending to order Du Chonghui to attack the city and throw himself into a trap. On the other hand, he instigated King Liu Wen and Yuqin to rescue him and gain your trust. As everyone knows, There was no need to initiate that palace coup."

"This matter can be said to be a loss for both you and Xiangguo, and the only one who benefits is the Qin Palace. I heard that Xiao Li still loves and hates Princess Shi to this day."

It was as if he had experienced the previous suffering all over again. The emperor was extremely shocked in his heart, but he forced himself to remain calm on his face.

Endless fear pounced on his back. He thought about Liu Wenyu's eagerness to save his wife, and also thought about it because he wanted to take credit. He never thought that this was actually directed and acted by himself.

No wonder Shi arrived at Jiaofang Palace before anyone else, she knew it beforehand.

He has been deceived for many years!

The emperor raised his head, but he had no strength due to his dying condition. What he wanted to say turned into a low sneer, which was scattered in the wind.

Han Ying continued to talk, "The Shi family is so hateful that even Prince Xiang was cruel to her. He wanted me to kill Princess Shi quickly, but Xiao Li secretly threatened me, saying that if I put Princess Shi to death, I will not forgive you."

"It can be seen that this witch is a disaster to Xiangguo and Wei Dynasty!" The emperor heard the last part, his face was completely expressionless, "Really... you vomited cleanly."

Han Ying had tears of determination in his eyes, and he said bluntly: "I had to rely on them for revenge. Now that Your Majesty is willing to show mercy and forgive me for the death penalty, why should I be a pawn of a foreign country? What's more, for Your Majesty, I am still a pawn. It’s valuable, isn’t it?”

He took a breath and said in a deep voice: "No one knows the Anyang Shi family better than I do."

When the emperor heard this, a faint smile appeared on his lips, and he reached out to touch the tough and cold dragon chair, but his expression was as cold as a sharp edge.

At that time, the deep and silent cell of Zuo Fengyi was different from the desolate and desolate atmosphere of an ordinary darkroom. It was tidied up very delicately, as if the furnishings of the palace had been changed.

Ti Zhen walked in hesitantly, unable to believe the sight in front of him, muttering to himself: Are the conditions in prison so good now?

Gao Qi cleared his mouth and asked people to leave, and said: "Mr. Shi asked people to drag these here for fear of your discomfort. Although you are only staying for a short time, after all, you are innocent pending trial, and this decoration is reasonable."

He unconsciously looked forward and backward before asking softly: "Everyone related to you must avoid suspicion now. Mr. Zhou has told me that you can ask me to do whatever you ask me to do."

Ti Zhen looked at the cold moonlight outside the window and became indifferent, "Because Your Majesty sent me to this place, I can't ask you to do anything."

Gao Qi's brows were filled with sadness and confusion: "What's the meaning of this? I'm ignorant. I just thought that your majesty detained the princess for trial at Zuo Fengyi. There must be no suspicion. If there is any suspicion, why not put you in a prison?" Yan family guard?"

"Do you really think the emperor would be so naive?"

Ti Zhen sat down with her skirt up, stretched out her hand to fiddle with a late plum in the vase, and seemed to be sighing but not sighing.

"He is old, not stupid. He is physically ill, not mentally disabled. Think about it carefully. If you really guard him strictly, will you still ask me what I will do next?"

She thought about it, but there was a flash of coldness in her eyes: "If I am not wrong, the emperor imprisoned me here because he was suspicious of me but did not completely trust Han Ying; secondly, he wanted to see if I would take any action. , a good thing to catch a turtle in a urn; three..."

"Perhaps he also wanted to take this opportunity to see the sound of the wind in the court and see what the ministers in the court would do...whether he would intercede for me..."

Gao Qi nodded hurriedly and said: "Then I have to tell you, sir, not to act rashly."

Ti Zhen said no, "It's not that I won't move, but I have to make them move, and let all of them plead for me on my behalf. The more, the better, and the more intense the words, the better."

Gao Qi's eyes widened in surprise, "But isn't this angering the emperor?"

Ti Zhen nodded firmly, "I just want to anger him, and I also want to tell him that most of the people in this court no longer belong to him."

The more she spoke, the colder the curve of her lips became, "He will definitely be angry, and he will definitely not be able to sleep well, but he will definitely know clearly the power and capabilities behind Prince Qin's Palace, which he can no longer liquidate in an instant. So if he throws a trap, he can't do anything to me."

She sighed slightly and looked at Gao Qi with a solemn tone, "On the contrary, I don't have the value to compete with him. I'm afraid I will die faster. Haven't you read "Bluff" in Sun Tzu's Art of War?"

Unexpectedly, Gao Qi still had such profound meaning. He was stunned for a moment, and it took him a long time to say "yes".

Then he asked: "Then does King Qin still send someone to urge him?"

In an instant, the golden steps with nine spread phoenix wings swayed slightly, and the pearly golden light was hidden in a corner of the dark prison.

Without comment, of course it is necessary. Otherwise, delays will inevitably create variables.

But now both Kong Sheng and Shi Fang are under guard by the emperor's people. Cao You and Yang Zuo are familiar faces in the capital, so their sudden absence must be inappropriate. Zhou Yishui is a bright star, and Sister Huo may not be under surveillance...

There was an endless silence for a while.

After taking the exam yesterday, I relaxed for a while and started updating normally!
