Chapter 148

"What's the use of you wanting the secret book?" Su Hailing asked coldly.

Zi Mo and Hong Chen glanced at each other, but were silent.

"Then, let's change the way of asking." Su Hailing's expression remained unmoved, still as calm as water, "Who wants this secret book?"

"Hasn't Your Majesty already guessed it?" Hong Chen asked.

No matter what time it is, he is always much calmer than Zi Mo.Su Hailing couldn't help admiring secretly, it's a pity, if... back then, her strength was stronger, so strong that she could bring them by her side without becoming a burden...

It's just that if it can only be an if, an assumption, it doesn't make any sense. If everything is repeated, she will still choose to abandon it.

"Your master has never been King An, King Jin, or Phantom Gate." Su Hailing shook his head, and after a while, he still didn't say that name.

Su Xialing, the final opponent is indeed you.

Su Hailing has already solved the secret in the secret booklet. At the same time, she can guess the truth about the case of General Zhenyuan Yun Hongluo. The so-called retrial is just a procedure.Because that's really not something that can be exposed to the sun.

"What does His Majesty want to do to us?" Hong Chen asked.

Su Hailing was slightly taken aback when he heard the words.what to do with themAre they all killed?

"Hailing..." Situ Ye tugged at her sleeve, with a trace of unbearable in his eyes.

"Ye'er, I won't leave room for the enemy." Su Hailing shook his head, and said calmly, "I haven't decided whether to kill them, but I will never allow them to leave here today."

"I understand." Situ Ye nodded, flipped his palm over, replaced a few brown bullets, and fired them in all directions without stopping.

"Let's go!" Zimo Hongchen immediately separated, and rushed towards the door and window respectively.

The projectile exploded, but...there was no reaction in the room.

"Want to leave?" Su Hailing sneered, but she had already blocked the gate without seeing her move.

A moment of hesitation flashed quickly in Zi Mo's clear eyes, but the sword in his hand pierced fiercely.

Su Hailing sighed softly, flicked his finger, and flicked the long sword away.

Zi Mo gritted his teeth, although he felt a sharp pain like a tear from the tiger's mouth holding the sword, but he still slammed towards the door.

"Since you can't be ruthless, don't be a killer. You... are unqualified." Su Hailing said, grabbing his right wrist with one hand and exerting a little force.

Zi Mo involuntarily let go of his hand in pain, and the long sword fell to the ground with a "dang".

Su Hailing flicked his men to the other side of the world.

"Boom!" The two hit the wall together and slid down softly.

Although Hong Chen caught Zi Mo's body, but Su Hailing's internal force attached to Zi Mo's body was too strong, and even though he tried his best, he couldn't counteract it.

Just as they were about to get up, suddenly, both of them felt hot all over, their heads were dizzy, and they fell back to their seats again.

"What's going on?" Hong Chen looked at the smiling Situ Ye in shock, "I obviously held my breath, how could I be poisoned?"

"If I, Situ Ye's poison, can escape by holding my breath, that dead ghost old woman will jump up from the coffin and hit me on the head." Situ Ye said, sitting on the desk, crossing his legs and shaking.

Su Hailing returned to Situ Ye's side and was about to speak when suddenly his head became dizzy and he was startled: "Ye'er, what poison did you inject?"

"It's not poison, it's hundred-day drunkenness." Situ Ye smiled, "Although you are invulnerable to all poisons, but...you still get drunk if you drink too much, right?"

"You..." Su Hailing couldn't laugh or cry, and Zimo Hongchen had already passed out, but the flushed expression on his face clearly looked like two drunks.

"The antidote." Situ Ye took out a pill and stuffed it into her mouth.

Su Hailing swallowed, and sure enough, the slightly drunk state disappeared immediately.

The room was already filled with a strong aroma of wine, so the smell of hundred-day drunk could not be smelled.

"Go out." Su Hailing walked over, lifting Zimo Hongchen one by one.

Situ Ye opened the door and rushed out: "Mother!"

"Ye'er, are you alright?" Situ Zhen heaved a sigh of relief, looked up and saw Su Hailing again, and felt relieved.

"Your Majesty." Haoyue immediately stepped forward and said.

Su Hailing threw the two of them on the floor of the yard, and ordered: "Yue, put them in the sky prison, and do everything by yourself, don't let others touch them."

"Yes." Haoyue agreed.

"Lord Situ, I came here today to talk about something." Su Hailing turned his gaze to Situ Zhen again.

"The study has already... Could your Majesty move it to the backyard?" Situ Zhen said.

"Master Situ, please." Su Hailing said calmly.

Situ Zhen hurriedly led the way.Fortunately, the backyard was not affected, but there were no servants, so Situ Ye had to rummage through the boxes and chests to find tea to make tea.

"My lord, you are welcome, please sit down." Su Hailing said indifferently, "I am visiting in private today, my lord is just like before, just treat me as a guest."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Situ Zhen sat down at the main seat, but he felt inexplicably uneasy. The empress entrusted him with such an embarrassing task in the early court, and at night he visited his home privately. Could it be that there is something in it that she doesn't know about? ?

"I heard that Master Situ and General Yun are knowledgeable?" First let Situ Ye go to rescue the servants in the study, Su Hailing sipped his tea while talking, and couldn't help frowning and smiling bitterly.

Situ Ye's ability to refine medicine is very good, but this tea... is really not flattering.

"This... Many years ago, Chen and General Yun had some quarrels..." Situ Zhen replied cautiously.

"Discord?" Su Hailing smiled lightly, "It's not discord, I'm afraid it's... a best friend, right?"

When Situ Zhen heard this, he was startled suddenly, his hands trembled, the teacup tilted slightly, and a few drops of hot tea fell on the back of his hands, causing a red mark.

After a while, she finally settled down and asked, "Why did Your Majesty say that?"

"Yun Mo." Su Hailing took another sip of tea and spit out two words.

Forget it, no matter how it tastes, it is considered tea if it can quench your thirst.

Hearing these two words, Situ Zhen's face turned white all of a sudden.

"At the beginning, the entire family of the Yun family was copied and beheaded, and you supervised the beheading. Without your acquiescence, how could Yun Hongluo's old department replace a 13-year-old child?" Su Hailing said, "I asked some old people, and everyone just It is said that you and Yun Hongluo have an enmity, but what kind of enmity... no one can explain clearly. This is probably a smoke screen released by you yourself."

Her tone was very affirmative, more like a direct statement of the result than a question.

Situ really kept his lips shut, but his hands were trembling slightly, and cold sweat could not help but break out on his forehead.

"Don't worry, I didn't come to Xingshi to inquire about the crime today." Su Hailing smiled, reassuring her heart, "If I want to pursue it, I will commit crimes privately, this crime is enough for you to die several times."

"Then what His Majesty means..." Situ Zhen wiped off his sweat and said with a dry smile.

"This." Su Hailing took out the real secret from his pocket and threw it on the table.

Seeing this, Situ Zhen's expression changed immediately.

"It is said that this secret book is an informant letter from one of General Yun's generals who came out to her." Su Hailing said.

"This..." Situ Zhen glanced at her and said cautiously, "Indeed, this secret booklet describes in detail the process of General Yun's collusion with the enemy and betraying the country. The first emperor was furious and immediately sent a special envoy to investigate. General Yun did not deny it. , All confessions and other evidence have also been included in the secret package."

"However, one of the most crucial things is missing." Su Hailing laughed.

"The key thing?" Situ was really puzzled.

"Motive." Su Hailing said, "Emperor Xian and Dayong both treated Yun Hongluo well. She had an affair with Xiqin or Nanchu, not to mention the lives of the whole family. It must be more than staying in Dayong? Don’t forget, Dayong is the most powerful country on the mainland, and it’s not like soldiers are approaching the city, so what kind of enemy does she have?"

Situ Zhen was taken aback for a moment before he remembered this.It's just because Yun Hongluo confessed without torture, so everyone didn't go into it.After all... who would pay for the lives of the Nine Clans and take the initiative to confess to an unwarranted crime?
"Someone told me that this secret booklet..." Su Hailing spread out the secret booklet on the table, and continued, "General Yun said before his death that this secret booklet is related to her family and life...it's a pity."

"What a pity?" Situ couldn't help but ask.

"Everyone is looking for the secret on the secret booklet, but in fact, this secret is too simple..." Su Hailing smiled, pointing to the writing on it, "There are many words on it that were not formed in one go, but have Of course, this eloquent memorial with ten thousand characters was written by a military general, and he was in a nervous state of betraying his superiors, so it was inevitable that the writing was not neat, so no one cared, so...these people did not stop it at all. Let the secret package be sent to the capital."

"Your Majesty means...General Yun didn't cooperate with the enemy, and that deputy general didn't betray his superior?" Situ Zhen couldn't help but widen his eyes.

"The combination of those words...is a ledger, which records the ledgers of officials from the three northern provinces colluding together and stealing military pay." Su Hailing said indifferently, "It's just that the first emperor understood it, but chose to sacrifice Yun Hongluo, plotting in secret , because those officials are deeply rooted, and if they act rashly, they may shake the foundation of the country."

Situ Zhen was breaking out in cold sweat when he heard it. No wonder so many people were looking for this secret booklet, some wanted to reverse Yun Hongluo's case, and some... probably sensed something was wrong and were eager to know if their secret had been leaked.

"What does Your Majesty plan to do..." After a while, Situ Zhen said.

"I have already sent Murong Zi to the three northern provinces, and now the whole territory of Dayong is basically stable, so we can't keep this cancer." Su Hailing said.

Situ Zhen nodded silently, and his hands gradually stabilized.

"Lord Situ, don't let me down..." Su Hailing smiled lightly and stood up.

"Minister, obey the order." Situ Zhen knelt down and said.

Dayong... I'm afraid it's going to be windy again...
