Chapter 556

As soon as he said this, the hall was in an uproar.

It was really poisoned!

The Duke of the town hammered himself to death!

But... Will Xia Shoufu really do this? Or is it really just Xia Shoufu?

All officials have different eyes and ideas.

"Poisoning?" emperor Qingming's eyes were full of accidents - what was Xu Qiwei's idea when he mentioned it in public?

"That's right! I was poisoned at that time. Fortunately, I was saved by a civil expert, otherwise my life would have to be confessed in Dongyuan city!" the Duke of the town said in a deep voice: "after the poisoning was confirmed, I found a military doctor accompanying me, but the military doctor refused to tell the main Messenger, and then waited for an opportunity to kill himself during the interrogation!"

Resist death... Commit suicide?!

Emperor Qingming felt a slight shock.

According to this, Xu Qiwei may not know the whole truth?

No, the other party has already suspected Xia Tingzhen's head, so why not take a bold guess?

After careful consideration, are you unwilling and afraid to tear your face with him

Yes, he is not the only one who has scruples. Does he really dare to openly oppose the whole court?

At this juncture, one move will affect the overall situation. Who dares to act rashly before the situation is clear and divided?

The fingers under Emperor Qingming's sleeve are closed and loosened. If so, Xu Qiwei is not too stupid. There is hope to stabilize the affairs of the Xu family for the time being

This hint was deliberately released, which eased the emperor's anxiety for days, but he still had doubts.

At this time, Xia Tingzhen sneered and said, "according to the Duke, if the poisoned military doctor really killed himself, how can the Duke conclude that Xia was the instigator? Can you add this groundless speculation to me based on the fact that Xia and the Duke have always disagreed?"

"I never talk nonsense without evidence!" the old man's voice was loud and full of anger: "It's unreasonable to doubt Xia Da's head just because of the military doctor, but the Imperial military officer named Yue Pei set fire to the post house on his way back to Beijing, colluded with the Li people to flee the army, and wanted to take advantage of the chaos to take my life. What explanation should Xia adult take? - isn't that the confidant of Xia Shoufu!"

The last sentence was actually for the sake of his granddaughter's confession - Zhaozhao told him that yuepei was Xia Tingzhen's man, which was made clear to the emperor.

The hall was agitated again.

It turned out that the poisoning was not successful. Did you kill again on the way back to Beijing

Thinking of this, all the ministers felt cold behind them.

This is the Duke of the town. If such means are put on them, will there be a way to live?

The sense of substitution was so strong that I even felt that the white cloth covered my head and face, and the coffin plate was about to close in front of me. My family had set up a mourning hall and cried.

This is the so-called thing hurts its kind.

"Not to mention the truth or falsehood of the official's words, whether this matter was done by Yue Pei or not, even if it was true, how could the official know that he was Xia's confidant!" Xia Tingzhen's voice was vibrating and there was no sign of guilt on her face.

"This letter is the evidence!" the Duke of town took out a letter from under the soft armor on his chest and said: "Yue Pei was just taken by me. The next day, his subordinates wanted to quietly send this letter back to the capital at night, and it was intercepted on the spot by the night watchman! The letter stated that the plan failed, and who the letter was to. It clearly wrote the honorific name of Xia Shoufu! It was to be sent to Xia mansion in central Beijing, no doubt!"

Then he faced the Emperor: "please have a look!"

Xia Tingzhen pressed her teeth.

Yuepei's men even tried to send him a letter?

Xu Qiwei openly pointed the spear at him. Don't you really know who is going to kill him?

No, no matter how stupid people are, they can't see it now

He still couldn't figure out the whole intention of the other party, but at this moment, one thing was very clear - Xu Qiwei clearly wanted to use this matter to force the emperor to deal with him!

How will Xu Qiwei react after returning to Beijing? He had many expectations, including that the other party directly set up troops to make trouble, but he didn't think of it. As soon as the old man returned to Beijing, he pretended to be confused and chose to fight him at this time

It's like being bitten by a mad dog, but it's hard to get rid of it, but it's impossible to tell the truth at all. Xia Tingzhen's heart is full of impatience and powerlessness.

The letter had been presented to the emperor by the inner prison.

The envelope was stained with dark blood. It can be seen that there was a struggle when the letter was intercepted.

Emperor Qingming opened the letter and scanned its contents line by line.

Seeing the emperor put down the letter, the Duke of the town looked at Xia Tingzhen in an impassioned and disdainful tone: "first plot to kill me, and then order my confidant to go to Dongyuan to seize the opportunity to gather my military power. Instead, I'll ask Xia Shoufu if he has a heart of disobedience! Is this an act to take advantage of the chaos to gather troops for his own use, so as to wait for the opportunity to rebel in the future?"

[book friends] reading can get cash or point currency, and iPhone12, Switch and so on you smoke! Pay attention to VX official account [book friend camp] can lead!

His words are bold and without scruples. At first glance, he sounds like deliberate incitement, but he often wants to attack the deepest heart of the people. What he needs is such sharp words.

The originally noisy hall was strangely quiet at this time.

A cloud of ash pressed over the golden sun, like a curtain slowly pulled over, making the hall dark inch by inch.

In the gloom, Xia Tingzhen's eyes surged and her tone was determined: "Your Majesty, this letter is a forgery at all. My minister has never instructed anyone to kill the Duke of town! If it's true or false, I hope your majesty can give me a clear lesson -"

The emperor sitting behind the Dragon case half lowered his eyes and looked at the letter under his hand.

Of course he knows.

Of course, I know that the teacher is wronged.

No, it can't be said that it's all wronged

And he also has some things he doesn't know - for example, Yue Pei turned out to be the teacher's confidant.

He should have guessed

That day, in the imperial library, although the teacher didn't directly recommend this person, I'm afraid it was no accident that this person first appeared in his sight in Lingshan palace?

HMM... so far-reaching and without trace, he deserves to be the teacher he relies on most and has helped him most all the way.

Oh, and Qiao Biying... From this point of view, it's really like something a teacher can do. Didn't you want to divert his attention by deliberately mentioning the queen and the national teacher?

Xu Jiajun's military power can make him despised by people all over the world... What does the teacher want to do when he plans to hold all these things in his hand?

The mantis catches the cicada and the Yellow finch is behind - I don't know whether the teacher regarded him as a mantis or the cicada?

Aware of the emperor's eyes, Xia Tingzhen was awed and said again, "I'm loyal to your majesty and Daqing. There's no reason to do so! I hope your majesty can see the cause and effect of this matter!"

The Duke of the town also said: "the old minister nearly died several times. Today, he must ask for a justice and statement!"

This is to fight - all officials are secretly sweating.

The first of the two military attach é s

This is really a big play you can only see in your lifetime
