disturbed.

The emperor was deeply disturbed by the two confessions written by Mo Lingfeng himself.

There was a strong wind outside, and the fine snow turned into snow particles, crackling on the window paper. The candlelight in the palace was automatic without wind. The emperor's face flickered, becoming more serious and solemn. His eyebrows were like blades, sharply cutting through the fragile and weak body of the King of Wei. camouflage.

"Say!"

The shouts were like thunder. King Wei trembled with fright, his heart tightened, his face turned blue, and he subconsciously wanted to kowtow, but the two confessions lay softly on the gold bricks, as if Mo Lingfeng's eyes were staring at him.

A mocking voice sounded in his ears: "Canary."

Another bewildering voice sounded in his ears: "Don't you want it, Prince Kuanzhou?"

Want it, and must.

At this point on the road to seizing the crown prince, he and the prince no longer have any feelings of separation, and the relationship between father and son is also vague. There are two squads around the deputy prince, but he only has clan relatives and civil servants. Once the emperor's imperial skills are out of balance, , he will be completely defeated.

If we can get the secret support of the Mo family——

He quietly looked at the throne.

He lowered his head and said, "Your Majesty is aware of it. I really did not hide anything from Your Majesty!"

The emperor sneered: "Then why does Xiao Mo have a confession here? Did she become stupid after staying in prison for a few days? Since she is willing to hand over these two confessions to you, she must have some conspiracy, in front of you In front of me, you still haven’t told the truth!”

The snow particles hit even louder, covering up the noise and anger that filled Kyoto City. Outside the capital, the post horses were galloping towards Kyoto like meteors.

King Wei swallowed his saliva: "I really don't know what she is planning. Fu Zhongcheng asked me to hand over the confession. Xu is His Highness the Crown Prince——"

He knew that the emperor was afraid of the Mo family, and it would be the same if he eliminated the Mo family when he ascended the throne.

The emperor interrupted him: "The prince has always regarded himself as orthodox and arrogant. He never got involved in the affairs of Kuanzhou. What's more, he stayed behind closed doors in the East Palace. How could he plot with the Mo family! But you are deeply involved with Yushitai. , I know it very well!”

With trembling hands, King Wei picked up the confession and held it in his hands. The palms of his hands were sweating, making the two confessions feel damp: "Your Majesty trusts His Highness the Crown Prince, why don't you trust me?"

In his heart, he secretly resented the emperor for being partial to the prince and picking off all the princes.

It was clear that the emperor wanted Mo Lingfeng to be executed. He had become this evil person and followed the tide. Now that the confession is here, the emperor still wants to have both sides.

How can it be such a good thing if you want to clear your emperor's side and also want to be enshrined in Mount Tai?
"I am doing it for your own good," the emperor stared at him, "Xiao Mo is not very old, but he is a tiger and a wolf. In terms of courage, you are far from her match. If you conspire with her, your bones will not survive!"

King Wei paused and said: "Your Majesty. Daddy, I will never deceive Your Majesty and do things like driving away tigers and devouring wolves!"

He looked like he was thinking, and suddenly said: "On the 22nd, I visited Yushitai Prison at night to check Wu Jin's injury, but I saw General Mo leaving the prison where she was imprisoned. I wanted to kill him, but then I thought The situation outside is chaotic, and although General Mo is suspected of absconding, he is not guilty of death, so he is taken back to the monastery and kept under strict supervision."

The emperor lowered his eyes and looked at the head of King Wei who was trying to defend himself: "I know this."

King Wei said: "I have a bold guess. Women often spend all their money and clothes for their husbands. After all, General Mo could not escape the love of his younger daughter. He fell in love with Wu Jin and wrote these two confessions to save him from trouble."

The emperor shook his head: "She is a person who has participated in many battles. Even if she is trapped by love, she will not destroy the Great Wall." The confession should have been sent to the imperial court after Mo Lingfeng was accused, tortured and coerced by everyone in the world, not She destroyed the Great Wall.

The snow is falling more and more rapidly.

The stagecoach, which was rushing through the wind and snow, had arrived in Kyoto in an instant. The sound of horse hooves broke through the sound of falling snow and resounded through the streets of Kyoto. The small flag on the horseback that said "Delivery Immediately" whistled.

The snow particles were like sand and gravel, and they fell on the passer's face. He held the bridle tightly with one hand, twitched the riding whip with the other hand, leaned on the horse, and went straight to the Forbidden Palace. The Forbidden Palace, which had already been opened, was as tall as a mountain, huge and silent.

Amidst the angry roars of the imperial guards, they handed someone to roll the saddle and dismount the horse. They couldn't stand and fell to their knees: "Eight, eight hundred miles urgent."

The passer's hands were white and stiff with cold, and he went to untie the document bag on his back. His fingers were clumsy and he couldn't untie it. Finally, he pulled the knot, bit it open with his teeth, and handed the document bag to the imperial guards: "Urgent delivery at the border!"

In the Palace of Civil Affairs, the emperor thought that even if Mo Lingfeng had arranged his troops in Kuanzhou in advance and Tan Xuan was monitoring the situation, there would be no trouble, so he made up his mind to cut the trouble quickly.

"Now that the confession is here, please convey my decree immediately. The Third Division will immediately close the case and give you poisonous wine."

The sound of footsteps outside the palace interrupted the emperor's thoughts. The emperor frowned and looked at the door of the palace. The hidden worry in his heart amplified with the sound of footsteps, giving him a sense of foreboding.

Zhang Gongfeng quietly walked out of the wind curtain and came to the door of the palace. The two young eunuchs immediately pushed up the door and pushed the heavy palace door open silently.

He stepped over the threshold and stood in the dark ice and snow, shuddering and exhaling a large cloud of white air.

Before the cold air dissipated, a chamberlain held the document in both hands and ran up to Danqi: "The offering is for the military affairs at the border."

Zhang Gongfeng saw at a glance that there were bird feathers inserted on the document and the word "Fei Delivery" was written on it. He knew it was a feather letter. He didn't dare to delay for a moment. He took it in his hand, returned to the palace, and walked quickly towards the emperor: "Your Majesty, this is a feather letter." .”

The emperor was already uneasy, so he took it and opened it, reading it from beginning to end. After reading it, one of his hands was trembling, and the air between his ribs seemed to be short of breath. A sharp pain hit him, and he immediately groaned: "Let go quickly." she"

Before he could finish his sentence, the emperor fell backwards and threw the military information in his hand to the ground, becoming irrefutable evidence of the ominous situation.

"Your Majesty!" Zhang Gongfeng shouted in shock, "Your Majesty! Call the imperial doctor quickly!"

The King of Wei suddenly got up from the ground. While helping the emperor, he lowered his head and glanced at the urgent report on the ground. He saw in the middle the words: "A thousand captives with gold, weapons and horses, climbed the city and set fire to it. Although the army joined forces to defend, the thieves were fierce and cunning. Unexpectedly, a few soldiers of the general in the fortress were injured."

His heart suddenly "thumped", and when he read the words written by Tan Xuan, asking His Majesty to "send men with courage and wisdom to lead the army", he suddenly realized it.

This is Mo Lingfeng's escape plan.

Tan Xuan could not move the soldiers in the fortress, and even a thousand gold captives could not resist. The army was defeated like a mountain. Except Mo Lingfeng, there was no one in the court who could handle it.

There was chaos in the Wenzheng Hall, and the servants were running around. After the King of Wei followed Zhang Zongfeng and placed the emperor on the bed, he sent someone to invite the queen. At the same time, he walked out of the Wenzheng Hall and stood in the corridor. Regardless of the cold wind and snow, he never left the palace door.

All the doctors in the Imperial Hospital rushed over with medicine boxes. The ground was slippery. One of the doctors slipped and fell to the ground with a bang. The medicine box flew out and hit the pillar. He immediately opened his mouth and poured out the contents inside. Pulse pillow and other things were vomited all over the floor.

The other imperial doctors had already entered the palace. A chamberlain came forward to help the imperial physician up. The two of them picked up the things scattered on the ground. The imperial physician was lame and picked up the medicine box. His clothes were disheveled and could not be entered. He was about to go out to change. , the King of Wei suddenly said: "Li Yuyi is here to stay. Just wait in the corridor and don't go out of the Wenzheng Hall." (End of this chapter)
