Confused country poison concubine

Chapter 446 Inside Story (2)
As soon as Li Mu's words came out, all the courtiers were in an uproar.

Bai Lichu only raised his eyebrows, and asked with interest, "Admiral Qiu, is what General Li said true?"

Qiu Ye said calmly with a pale face: "Return to Your Highness, it is true or not."

What does true and false mean?
Everyone looked bewildered.

Qiu Yebai said indifferently: "It is true that all the people involved in the investigation will be detained after going down the mountain, but the purpose of the Weichen is not to silence the public. Which one of the people from the Ministry of Punishment, Dali Temple, and Crane Supervisor is the Weichen and the Sili Supervisor? Killed?"

All the courtiers immediately felt that Li Muzhi's words sounded too absurd.

Li Mu sneered: "Then why did you put all those involved in the search under house arrest after the search in Yecheng Mountain was completed? Could it be that you wanted to threaten to collude confessions?"

At this time, the Minister of the Ministry of Justice also came out and said coldly: "Master Qiu, should you give us a reasonable explanation?"

Qiu Yebai raised his hand to salute Baili Chu: "Returning to Your Highness, the reason why I put all the people involved in the search under house arrest is to keep the final investigation results fair and objective, and not because some people try to interfere. and tamper with the final findings."

Before Baili Chu could speak, the queen mother behind the gorgeous bead curtain said firstly: "Admiral Qiu really has far-sightedness. Why, is someone trying to interfere and tamper with the investigation results of this case?"

Qiu Yebai raised his hand and said: "Yes, after going down the mountain, I discovered that a suspicious person entered and exited the investigation team's residence, and they were also carrying weapons. I don't know if there is any suspicion of assassinating the investigation team officials. Habayashi guards pursued after finding out that Fang Fang was suspicious. , the other party fled in panic, so I and the officials involved in the investigation of the three departments discussed that before the court testified, none of them would leave the Habayashi Guard camp!"

Everyone had different expressions on their faces.

Li Mu sneered: "Absurd."

Du Ruhui, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, looked at Li Mu coldly: "Habayashi Guard is His Majesty's personal guard, representing His Majesty. I think this is very fair. Mr. Li thinks it is absurd. Could it be that even His Majesty's people can't believe it?"

Habayashi Guard is the emperor's personal guard. It was the main force involved in the coup more than [-] years ago, and it was also the only force that the emperor could not be purged after Empress Dowager Du listened to the government behind the curtain.

Now that even the Du family is so "regardless of suspicion" as Habayashi Wei's platform, it seems a bit ulterior motives for others to say more.

Li Mu's eyes flashed, and he said angrily: "I never said that I don't believe in His Majesty, the surname is Du, you're going to spit blood and frame him!"

There was another row of noise, Baili Chu impatiently raised his hand and dropped the jade pen on the stage to the ground with a bang: "Shut up!"

Everyone shut up for a moment, and there was complete silence inside.

Ordinary emperors pay attention to taboos and do not allow blood to be seen in the Golden Luan Palace. If they want to kill or fight, they must be dragged down and gagged. When he is in a bad mood, he doesn't mind at all the scenes where people's blood is splashed in the Golden Luan Hall, but he prefers to execute his execution in the Golden Luan Hall. There are not a few criminals who were beaten to death in the Golden Luan Hall.

"Admiral Qiu, tell me." Baili Chu yawned with a sleepy expression, and then looked at Qiu Yebai.

This time, it was rare for the Empress Dowager Lafayette to agree with Baili's initial tune, and said gracefully: "Admiral Qiu, you don't have to worry about someone getting in the way, let's talk about it in detail."

No matter how noisy the hall was, how others attacked her, Qiu Yebai's expression remained indifferent, at this moment she just smiled calmly: "This matter is easy to say, as long as you summon the adults of the investigation team to come up and ask, you will find out."

After she finished speaking, she glanced at Bailichu again, seeing that his eyes were half closed, she couldn't help feeling more and more suspicious in her heart, what's wrong with this Highness, why does he always look tired and impatient to go up?
Is it really sick?

She suddenly remembered that there was still a lingering poison on his body, and she inevitably became worried.

Everyone didn't notice that Qiu Yebai was absent-minded. Although the courtiers had their own ulterior motives in their hearts, her proposal was indeed unavoidable, so with Bai Lichu's lazy "pass", Yigan had already been waiting in the hall The officials of the investigation team outside all came to the court, saluted the Queen Mother and Bailichu at the head of the hall, and then got up and waited for questioning.

The person sent by the Ministry of Punishment was Lord Wailang Cen, a member of the Ministry of Justice, the person sent by Dali Temple was Lord Lu, Minister of Dali Temple, who was also a disciple of Du Guogong, and the person sent by the Crane Supervisor was Yibai.

Li Mu and the Eighth Prince's group were a little nervous when they saw Mr. Cen coming out, but they were relieved when they saw that the other party's expression was normal, but a little tired, and then looked at the expressionless Yibai, only his soft and handsome face The gloomy expression unique to the person in charge of the crane made them all shudder, and turned their faces away uncomfortably, and went to see Mr. Lu, but saw that he had the same expression, and became suspicious again.

The members of the Du family's party also stared at the three of them, feeling uneasy in their hearts, Master Lu calmly glanced at his own people, signaling them to be at ease.

"My dear friends, you have worked hard. Have you ever collected any evidence in the mountains, and let's be honest." Baili Chu seemed to feel uncomfortable in the posture, so he kicked the embroidered shoes lazily, and put his long legs on the dragon chair above.

The ministers below did not see it, and did not dare to say anything when they saw it. The Queen Mother, who was qualified to teach a lesson, although she could see it clearly from the side, she only cursed in her heart that her words and deeds were shameless and dissolute.

First of all, Lord Lu stepped forward to salute, and said loudly: "Go back to Lafayette, Your Highness, there is indeed a strange door on Mount Ye, and it is not easy to get rid of. The subordinates and others searched carefully in Yeshan for three days, and found a warehouse of inferior weapons and weapons. Yiku has good Mingguang swords and shields, and those inferior weapons are the same as the inferior weapons of the four major battalions in Gyeonggi. It can be seen that Yeshan is indeed the forging point of those inferior weapons, and all the good weapons have the forging department of the Ministry of War The mark is exactly the one that was replaced!"

When everyone heard the words, they all started whispering, it turned out that it was really a fake weapon forged in Yeshan, so the final conclusion of this case must not be the work of the Mei family, but the work of the Eighth Prince.

Li Mu's heart skipped a beat, but he remembered that Shu Jin had sent back the news that he had already transferred all the weapons and people. Could it be that he was discovered like this?
Not only him, but the cronies of the Eighth Prince's faction all looked a little uneasy, he could only sneer, and said in a preemptive voice: "It is not the Mei family who can hide private castings and cast a large number of fake weapons. , who else just doesn't know what they plan to do with the good weapons they have replaced from the Ministry of War?"

What can you do, no matter what you do, is it treason?

A group of courtiers thought to themselves.

But Mr. Cen's expression was a little strange, he secretly winked at Li Mu, but it's a pity that Li Mu didn't react.
