Tyrant he always wants to hit me

Chapter 58 Catnip

"Catnip? What is catnip?"

Zhaojun gave her a white look, "Catnip is very attractive to cats, it is a kind of grass that can drive cats crazy by smelling it."

"The shoes were changed by Concubine Mei before she came to Qianqing Hall, and she didn't grow catnip on the way from Qianen Hall to Qianqing Hall, so she was framed, do you understand?"

Wei Ying looked at him, and suddenly sneered, "No wonder you are so active in investigating the case this time. It turns out that if you feel wronged, you are eager to help her excuse, right?"

"Aying, calm down."

"I'm very calm." Wei Ying narrowed her eyes, "Wu Yanzhao, I've seen you clearly for a long time, you're just a volatile person, you don't have a heart at all, well, if that's the case, I'll show you something again. "

Wei Ying took out a token from the cabinet and threw it out, "This is the token that was found from the assassin that time. The first time is a coincidence, what about the two times? What are the two times?"

Zhaojun's face darkened again, "It seems that someone in this palace wants to provoke the relationship between you and her."

Wei Ying said: "Maybe someone is trying to frame her, but this is the most direct evidence and cannot rule out her suspicion.

"You still doubt her?"

"Shouldn't I doubt her?" Wei Ying said solemnly, "The one who can touch Mei Xinruo's shoes must be a maid in her palace. There is no way I can escape from her relationship."

"The king will continue to investigate these two matters." Zhaojun said.

Wei Ying curled her lips, "No, I want to investigate in person. If I find out the real culprit, please give me the right to deal with it myself."

"Okay, I promise you." After Zhaojun finished speaking, he strode out, Wei Ying secretly complained in her heart, she said she couldn't leave just now, I'm afraid she will go to Mei Xinruo again soon.At this time, Zhaojun suddenly turned his head, and licked the corners of his lips at her, "I will go back to discuss matters with Su Qingye, and I will come to see you tomorrow."

Cut, who wants you to come and see me...

When Zhaojun stepped into the imperial study, Su Qingye was already waiting inside, drinking tea inside, with a gloomy expression.

After Wei Rong ascended the throne, he hid from Zhaojun for half a month and was also lonely for half a month. During the past half month, he couldn't figure out the reason why Wei Rong took over the world. Miscalculation, is it because Wei Rong is hiding something, or is there another helper secretly?

The first thing Wei Rong did after he ascended the throne was to eradicate Wei Yan's remnants of the party, which seriously damaged his vitality. It not only killed the spies he had planted with great difficulty in Wei State over the years, but also destroyed many of his secrets in Wei State. The industry, the goal is fast and precise, which even makes him feel that Wei Rong is coming for him. Could it be that Wei Rong already knows his existence?

"Su Aiqing has arrived?" Zhaojun strode in like a gust of wind, he immediately came back to his senses, stood up and bowed, "Your Majesty."

"What was Su Aiqing thinking just now, so devoted." Zhaojun picked up a piece of mung bean cake, sat down beside him and ate it.

Su Qingye frowned and said, "A commercial road has been built between the two countries, and the chambers of commerce have close contacts. Taxes and fees are exempted for entry and exit, and there is a great tendency to form an alliance. We must prevent them from forming an alliance."

"Well, I know that. What's your plan?"

"Should we also reduce or exempt taxes and fees for doing business with Shu, and send caravans to Shu to promote trade with Shu?"

"It's not necessary." Zhaojun said calmly, "Find some bandits and lurk on their trade roads, and occasionally tamper with the goods on the road."

Su Qingye was secretly taken aback.

"For example, if you ordered a batch of agate, but you received a pile of stones, or something like rice, you ordered [-] catties, but lost [-] catties on the way. Can their alliance be formed? ?" Zhaojun said slowly, curling the corners of his lips triumphantly, and after one piece of pastry was finished, he went on to get another piece.

Su Qingye felt ashamed in his heart, and wanted to say, you are the king of a country, not a bandit leader, so can you not think of such a treacherous way?But the mouth is,
"Wang Shangyingming, haven't you eaten yet?"

Where did he eat?Even lunch is useless, I am full of gas at noon today.

"Not yet, Ai Qing will eat something with the king later."

"Weichen came here after eating." Su Qingye said hastily.

He still remembers the experience of dining with him last time, how dare he have dinner with him again?
"There is one more thing." Su Qingye said seriously, "When Wei's city wall was built to the mountain boundary, it was planned to build three miles in front of the boundary marker. Because it was in the deep mountain, their city wall had already been repaired when we found out, so that There was a conflict between the soldiers of the city and the soldiers of the Wei State who built the city wall."

"Is the matter resolved?"

"No." Su Qingye said, "Our city soldiers wanted to demolish the city wall, but the other side's soldiers insisted on not letting go. Our military officers reported the case to the state capital, and the local state capital only reported the case in two days."

"What do you think?"

"My minister believes that the city wall must be demolished."

"Demolish what?" Zhaojun was a little furious, "It's going to explode directly, when will it be demolished..."

Su Qingye: ...

Well, for some reason, I feel that the king is a little different today, but I can't tell what the difference is.

At this time, Wei Ying was playing with a plant with purple flowers in her hands.

"So, this is catnip?" Wei Ying sniffed it, and took the grass to the side of the little white cat's cage to sweep it. As a result, smelling the smell, the little white cat jumped up immediately and kept trying Leaning out of the cage, wanting to smell the grass.

Catnip has a strong fragrance and is very attractive to cats, so that day, Mantou would keep running to Concubine Mei's feet to smell her feet, just to arouse Concubine Mei's dissatisfaction and make her kick it. foot.
After Concubine Mei kicked it in full view, the steamed bun was carried away when no one was looking, and that's when she got a fatal kick...

If Concubine Mei was framed, Wei Ying has already figured out what happened, so the person who put catnip on the soles of Concubine Mei's shoes is the one who killed Mantou.

"Bring the palace servants who are serving Concubine Mei to change clothes and shoes," Wei Ying said.

"Yes."

Soon, the person came to her, "Your Majesty, these two are the maids Shuang'er and Xia'er who are in charge of Concubine Mei's daily life."

"Kneel down."

The two court ladies immediately knelt down in front of her.

Wei Ying looked at them, "Last night, before Concubine Mei went to bed, who of you helped Concubine Mei change her shoes?"

"Yesterday..." Shuang'er thought for a while and said, "It's Xia'er! Xia'er changed the shoes for the empress."

Wei Ying glanced at Xia'er's face, Xia'er was startled, Wei Ying immediately said, "Come on, arrest her!"

The guards immediately stepped forward and grabbed Xia'er's arms. Xia'er struggled, her eyes widened, and she looked terrified, "Your Majesty, why did you arrest the servant girl?! Is it because the servant girl changed the maidservant's shoes yesterday?" ?”

Wei Ying stared at her coldly: "Didn't you put catnip on the soles of Concubine Mei's shoes?"
