cut love silk

Chapter 47
Chapter 43 Chapter 40 Tranquility
"Your majesty is wise! The old minister has only one son, the emperor must be the master of the humble minister! Huh..."

In the Hall of Qinzheng, Yin Qi knelt on the ground, weeping, his whole body trembling and begging, but he didn't get an answer for a long time, then he kowtowed heavily and said: "Your Majesty, the dog died unjustly, so you must not let it go hastily, otherwise the humble minister will kill you." Day...he will die with regret..."

Yun Jinyan didn't even lift his eyelids, as if Yin Qi was crying, shouting and kowtowing like an existence like air, and he didn't know what he was looking at.

Several generations of the Yin family have passed on to Yin Qi. The three daughters and one son in the family only count on Yin Ping to carry on the light. With the emperor's backing, Yin Ping will live a lifetime of prosperity and no worries, who would have thought that after entering the palace for a dinner, he would lose his entire life, even his corpse is too horrible to look at.

He didn't have much friendship with Zheng Ying, let alone Yin Ping, but he found a handkerchief with the word "Zheng" embroidered with gold thread. The silk thread was bestowed to the Zheng family by the emperor this year, and only the prime minister's mansion can find it.Zheng Ying is very masculine, everyone in the court knows it, maybe he tried to do something wrong to Yin Ping by drinking that night, and when he failed, he pushed his poor son into the lake.

The rumors in the palace are all like this, and Yin Qi is even more convinced of this. In his opinion, General Gu is a calm and loyal person. If he wants to frame Zheng Ying, there are many opportunities. Why focus on his son?But the emperor was very indifferent to this matter, and let the court memorial one after another, Zheng and Gu's family testified against each other, and even tried to reconcile the trivial matter.

Thinking of this, Yin Qi's grief turned into grief and indignation, and he kowtowed again and said loudly: "Your Majesty, back then, the Emperor promised me that I would keep my family safe, rich and prosperous, but now..."

"Doctor Yin still remembers what happened back then..." Yun Jinyan suddenly raised his head at this moment, and interrupted Yin Qi's words with a light smile. , unfathomable.

Yin Qi's heart trembled, and he boldly said: "Your Majesty, I only ask the Emperor to uphold justice for my son. My son must not die without knowing why!"

"If it is said that the death is unclear, there are many people in the world who died unclear." Yun Jinyan chuckled again, looked at Yin Qi and said, "Yin Yuyi should know better than me. "

Yin Qi choked, what does the emperor mean by saying this?
"If Imperial Physician Yin can't forget what happened back then, I don't mind using another method to make you forget. Anyway, your son is very lonely alone."

Yun Jinyan spoke softly before, but the tone of the last sentence suddenly turned cold, causing Yin Qi's body to shiver. The emperor he knew was always gentle and humble, without imperial domineering, and very easy to speak. Just now That cold tone really made his heart sink. The emperor is the emperor after all. If you want him to die, it will be effortless. The grief and anger just now turned into fear in an instant. Your Majesty forgives me!"

"I think that Imperial Physician Yin is a sensible person, what should be forgotten, what should be remembered, what should be pursued, and what should be let go, should be very clear." Yun Jinyan regained his harmonious appearance and said with a smile: "Yin imperial doctor, I thought, but you are right?"

"Yes, I was confused for a while! Rong Weichen returned to the mansion and buried his body immediately!" Although Yin Qi had never been a university student, he could still hear the threatening meaning in Yun Jin's words, and the emperor was furious. Get up, get ruthless, he has seen it with his own eyes, he dare not say more, kowtow to beg to back down.

Yun Jinyan was about to say yes to retreat, when he suddenly remembered something, raised his head and said: "Yin Yuyi lost his beloved son, and the illness on his body may not recover for a while, so please rest for a while and come back."

"My minister thanked the emperor for his kindness!" Yin Qi made another great gift, and Yin Ping set off a storm in the court. Since Yin Ping couldn't be held accountable, he wished to hide at home to avoid disaster. Hearing Yun Jin's words to let him "retreat", he hurried After lifting the hem of his clothes, he stepped back quickly.

Yun Jinyan looked up, just in time to see the smoke from the three tripod incense burners in the Qinzheng Hall. Yin Ping's death seemed unexpected, but in fact...someone wanted to use him to stir up a dispute between the Zheng and Gu families, right?Although he also wanted to take advantage of the fight between the two families to get rid of them together, and make wedding clothes for others, it was not something he liked, and wanted to make the court chaotic?The more he wants it to be safe and secure!

In the case of Yin Ping, because Yin Qi suddenly took the initiative to stand up and changed his previous statement, he said that the handkerchief on his body was asked by Zheng Ying himself, and it happened to be given to Yin Qi, so it was not surprising to him, and he blamed himself for discipline. No way, maybe Yin Qi was drunk and fell into the lake by himself.

Yin Qi's peaceful attitude made the tense atmosphere instantly subside. Both parties had no excuses, and the flags and drums died down for a while. The turmoil caused by this incident seemed to have disappeared, but the undercurrent of turmoil under the calm surface became more and more intense.

The prime minister's mansion was still in a haze, lifeless, when the servants saw Zheng Ying's expression, they didn't dare to make a sound.

Zheng Ying only felt that things were not going well recently, her son ran away without a word from anyone, a few molesters she raised were forced to leave, and they were charged with murder for no reason, although it was a misunderstanding in the end, but Yin Qi said that the handkerchief was given by himself, which was completely unfounded. It was obvious that someone killed Yin Ping first and intended to set the blame on later.

The most important thing is that someone told him that he abused children and molested them, making the world know that he was a manly man, and then Yin Ping died in the lake wearing the veil of his own family. , Murder to silence, this coincidence is too coincidental!

To be able to let officials pass paperwork, and to kill people in the palace without looking at them, this is something that only Gu Weiquan's forces can do.

"Benxiang went to find that one, that is called Li, Li Zihe!" The more Zheng Ying thought about it, the more wrong she got, put down her teacup with a "bang", and said angrily: "Concubine Yan was thrown into the cold palace, he was there, he didn't want to cooperate with Benxiang As long as he comes out to testify that Gu Yanlin murdered Yao Feilongzhong, and the poison that the emperor was poisoned a month ago came from Southwest County, this time, he will definitely bring down the Gu family!"

"Master Xiang calm down." Sitting in a wheelchair, Mu Pianwu watched the leaves wither in the courtyard by the window, and said calmly, "Master Xiang never thought that besides General Gu, who else has the ability to kill people?"

"No more!" Zheng Ying waved her big hand and said angrily: "If people don't offend me, I won't offend others. Gu Weiquan is afraid that he has been deprived of 20 military power. Hurry up! I'm afraid that I will be alone, so I devised such a series of conspiracies." , trying to pull me off my horse!"

"Hey, Mr. Xiang probably missed someone." Mu Pianwu sighed lightly, still looking out of the window for a moment, and said, "If you fight with General Gu, the fisherman will gain..."

"You said that the emperor did this?" Zheng Ying stared, not quite believing it.

"Not necessarily. It's not impossible." Mu Pianwu turned the wheelchair, and said slowly to Zheng Ying: "Mr. , is not difficult."

"What handle?"

"Master Xiang also mentioned it just now. If there is evidence that the Gu family poisoned the emperor, General Gu would not be able to chop off a hundred heads." Mu Pianwu's voice was soft but powerful.

Zheng Ying said angrily: "Then why do you want me to calm down? Why don't you go and find that Li Zihe to testify?"

"Master Xiang is impatient again. Doctor Li can only prove the source of the poison, but cannot prove that it was ordered by General Gu."

"How about that?"

"Where the poison was born, who picked it, who and when it was sent to Yundu, how it was sent to the palace, and how it was dropped on the emperor, these are the evidence!"

Mu Pianwu's thin lips parted slightly, which made Zheng Ying suddenly realize, and said cheerfully: "Haha, you are worthy of being the real military advisor!" Then she frowned and said, "All these are fabricated?"

"The group of Xiangye's subordinates are all free eaters, right?" The corner of Mu Pianwu's mouth slipped with disdain, if everyone is as stupid as you, how can Yun Kingdom be stable and unified.

"Haha, yes, yes. Money can turn ghosts around. The most correct thing I did was to raise a genius like you!" Zheng Ying's eyes lit up, she walked up to Mu Pianwu while talking, Touch his cold hands on his legs.

A trace of disgust flashed away from Mu Pianwu's eyes, he turned his eyes away, continued to look out the window, and pulled away his hand without a trace, the movement was subtle, but was still noticed by Zheng Ying, his face changed, and he raised his hand and slapped hard Hitting Mu Pianwu on the face: "If you have a bit of ability, you think you are really a thing! I don't know how to praise!"

After finishing speaking, he took Mu Pianwu's arm and pulled it hard. Mu Pianwu was already suffering from old illnesses, his body was weak and weak, so he couldn't withstand his strength, and fell from the wheelchair to the ground like a dead tree, but he seemed to notice There was no pain, and there was no expression on his face.

"The truth is that I think highly of you for raising you! Do you think you are really a foster son? After all, you are still a cheap ruffian, a filthy bastard!" Zheng Ying kicked Mu Pianwu hard in the waist, not intending to stop, kicked Then he kicked, like kicking a ball of flesh, and cursed: "I told you to pretend to be noble! If you don't have the truth to support you, you will die long ago! Life is my person and death is my ghost. You will never think of my palm in this life." Heart!"

Mu Pianwu fell to the ground with her back to Zheng Ying, allowing him to kick desperately, without making a sound, the corners of his mouth were faintly stained with blood, which melted into his sudden smile, staring blankly at the sunset outside the window, his eyes filled with thick mist, It suddenly occurred to him that the setting sun is like blood, how do those people know what color real blood is...

As soon as Li Zihe returned to the Imperial Hospital from the Taoyao Temple for taking a pulse, he hurried to Shen Mo's room. Shen Mo didn't look for her these few days, and the court was suddenly quiet, which made her a little uneasy. She thought that Yin Ping's death would definitely cause an uproar Who would have thought that the commotion would come to an abrupt end after a few days, with Yin Qi's personality, how could he just let it go?

Shen Mo was about to go out, when he opened the door, Li Zihe knocked on the door hesitantly, smiled lightly, held her slightly raised hand, "Come in."

Li Zihe just felt his body being pulled lightly, and he came into the room, he didn't have time to think, and asked directly: "What happened in the court these few days?"

"No." Shen Mo shook his head, frowned and said, "Can I eat something?"

Li Zihe shook his head and continued: "Then why is Yin Ping's matter left alone?"

Shen Mo lowered his eyes, and answered after a long while: "You overestimate the importance of this person. Now the result is not as expected, and it is normal."

"I just don't understand why Yin Qi suddenly changed his mind and refused to pursue the matter. Besides, Yun Jinyan said, shouldn't he be happy to see Zheng Gu fight? It's just calmed down?" Li Zi couldn't figure it out. As he said, Yun Jinyan looked for an opportunity to get rid of the Gu family. This time Zheng Ying was framed, it was so obvious that it could be blamed on the Gu family.

"Don't be in a hurry, quick success is the most taboo." Shen Mo smiled lightly, his eyes brightened, he stroked Fu Li Zihe's head, and said: "This plan won't work, just look for another opportunity, and we won't wait too long."

Li Zihe lowered his eyelids, and suddenly found that his hand was warm. The right hand that was about to knock on the door just now was still gently held by Shen Mo. It was wet and greasy, and he tried to pull it away. As soon as he moved, Shen Mo held it even tighter. live.

"Mu Pianwu, do you know your daughter's identity?" Shen Mo asked suddenly.

Li Zihe was still thinking about the hand held by him, but his sudden question made her startled, she pulled her hand away from Shen Mo's palm as soon as she struggled, nodded quickly: "I know."

This movement and expression, in Shen Mo's eyes, looked guilty and nervous, his eyes darkened, and said: "I just want to know what kind of relationship you have with this friend."

Thinking of Mu Pianwu, Li Zihe couldn't hide the melancholy on his face, he just said lightly: "I owe him what I owe to others, I should pay it back."

"Understood." Shen Mo sighed lightly, and said slowly: "In the future, you will be the one who will diagnose Yun Jinyan's pulse?"

Li Zihe nodded, originally she and Yin Qi had a one-day consultation, but Yin Qi was sick at home, yesterday Eunuch Wei came to pass the decree, and she will be the only one who will take Yun Jinyan's pulse in the future.

"Li Zihe!!!"

Shen Mo wanted to say something, but was stopped by Feng Zongying's shout.

Li Zihe stood up abruptly and opened the door. Feng Zongying blushed and said angrily, "What are you doing here? Let's go and show me the medical books!"

As he spoke, he dragged Li Zi He Lian away and ran out the door, back to his study, still admonishing him: "After I told you, your master is me! You have nothing to do with that Shen Mo! It's okay, go over there What are you running for!"

Li Zihe lowered his head and chuckled, pretending to take out a book to read, suddenly raised his head, and said solemnly: "My lord, what kind of medicinal materials did you use for the dinner in the palace on the winter solstice? Zihe searched many medical books but couldn't find it. What kind of medicine can be used for this."

"Why are you so stupid! That's the one..." Feng Zongying was writing with a brush, and almost blurted out without thinking too much, but suddenly realized that his right hand was frozen in the air, and he forgot to close his open mouth, and immediately changed his mouth and said angrily : "Who told you that I took medicine? I was drunk that day, how can I remember so many things!"

Li Zihe nodded in understanding, and saw Feng Zongying blushing and hurried away.

A few days passed by in a hurry, Li Zihe tried to get close to Yue'er beside Concubine Yao, trying to get some news about the cold palace that day, but found nothing.Concubine Yao was much quieter than before, and no longer made things difficult for her.Yun Jinyan seemed to be extremely busy these days, and he left in a hurry in less than half a cup of tea for his pulse diagnosis every day.

Shen Mo said that since she entered the palace, there have been constant incidents in the palace, and she must stop for a while, and take this opportunity to take a good rest and wait for the opportunity.Li Zihe felt that it was not unreasonable, so he calmed down, watching the sun rise and the moon set every day, it was the most peaceful period since entering the palace.

Just when I was wondering what the timing was and where the timing was, an urgent report came from outside the palace. There was an outbreak in the south. The infected people were weak, coughing, listless, and getting thinner. The epidemic spread rapidly from south to north with a destructive force. .
