Chapter 110
After the assassin was arrested, he confessed that night.
Xiao Lu was tortured by Yelu Shege in prison and was dying. In the end, he was scolded and confessed to the envoy behind the scenes. If he were in Shangjing, there would never be any acts of forced confession. At least it would not be possible for Yelu Shege's people to do it. Because in Shangjing, the prince's grand tutor Yelu Ding covered the sky with his hands. So Yelu Shege and Yelu Qin came to Xijin Mansion, the base camp of the southern officials.
After Xiao Lu confessed to the envoy, Yelu Shege acted in disbelief. He opened his eyes blankly and said repeatedly: "How could it be Lord Taibao? How could it be?"
The evidence found in Xiao Lu's mansion was actually not all the evidence of Yelu Shege sent someone to frame the matter.
The official found several things in Xiao Lu's treasury, all of which were precious treasures that were only available in Shangjing. He even found one thing in Xiao Lu's backyard, which was a bloody cloak stained with the blood of the assassin. Xiao Lu must be a member of the assassin, but only he himself knew whether his behind-the-scenes commander was the Prince Taibao Yelu Yin.
Yelu Qin was injured and did not interrogate Xiao Lu. After Xiao Lu confessed to the envoy, he asked suspiciously: "Second Your Highness, it is logical that Xiao Lu should be the third prince's person. The things found in his mansion are ironclad evidence. However, his performance made me a little confused. I have been ups and downs in the officialdom for many years, and according to me, it seems that he is not."
Yelu Shege also said, "I also think that something is strange. However, when all the deployments are made by the Lord, someone in Xijin Mansion must have helped the assassin. Otherwise, with him alone, how could he have been hiding in the city for so many days and not discovered?"
A cold expression flashed across Yelu Qin's face. He thought for a while and said, "Can this Xiao Lu not the third prince's person..." He stretched out his right hand, slapped the back of his left hand with a palm, and lowered his voice: "It was the other two princes who framed the blame, wanting to alienate Your Highness and the Third Highness, so as to sit in the mountains and watch the tiger fight, and always gain the benefits of the fisherman?"
"Everyone who is deployed to think of it, Brother She had thought of it. But this is really ridiculous." Brother She said almost mockingly, "The Han people said that 'The snipe and clam fight, the fisherman gains profit'. In essence, the fisherman has the power to compete, and it is definitely not a waste of money. It is not that Brother She looked down on my elder brother and fourth brother. Yelu Zhan's thoughts were written on his face. Yelu Long wanted to write his thoughts on his face, but he had no scheming. If they really got help from a master and set up this plan, it would lead me to fight with Yelu Han, so what?"
Yelu Qin: "What does Your Highness mean?"
Yelu Shege opened the folding fan with a click and swayed gently, like a young master in Jiangnan. His slightly gloomy expression made him look like a young master in aristocratic family. "The only one that Brother Shege wants to deal with is Yelu Han, or the Grand Master behind him. As for others, no matter what he does, he is just a clown who jumps on the beam."
Yelu Qin suddenly realized and said, "Your Highness is wise, I am willing to go through fire and water for you, and I will do whatever you want!"
The two thought they were thorough in thinking, but they didn't expect that behind all this, there was the power of the Song Dynasty intervening.
Let’s not talk about the secret matters here. On the other hand, at Zuo Pingzhang’s government, Xiao Zhen was so angry that he got sick by Xiao Lu’s violation of the ban. Now that he knows that Xiao Lu actually said that he was also a member of the party, he was so angry that his eyes were full of fire and he was almost dead.
Xiao Zhen and Xiao Lu were cousins from afar and had nothing to do with each other. However, there were no other outstanding children in their lineage, so when Xiao Lu came to please Xiao Zhen and gave him a generous gift, Xiao Zhen accepted it and even regarded Xiao Lu as his confidant.
What Xiao Lu bit her back was that it was not aimless.
First of all, the official found several precious gifts related to assassins from his home. One was given by Xiao Lu, a tea merchant in the Song Dynasty, and the other was given to him by Xiao Jin. When Xiao Lu heard that these two things were actually wrong, he hated Xiao Jin and Qiao Jiu. He had been tortured to lose his mind. Knowing that he was dead, he wanted to drag everyone else into the water.
Qiao Jiu came to ask Xiao Jin for help, and Xiao Jin was as panicked as an ant on a hot pan. He immediately changed into his official robe and went to the city's deployment house to visit him. Brother Yelu She actually agreed to see him. As soon as he saw Brother Yelu She, Xiao Jin knelt directly on the ground and cried, "I am wronged. I really don't know that Xiao Lu is actually an assassin! I am loyal to Your Majesty, and the sun and the moon can be seen!"
Yelu Shege said in surprise: "How can you perform this great gift? Get up and talk."
Xiao Zhen dared not to get up: "I really don't know anything, please give me a clear understanding of the Second Prince."
Yelu Shege smiled and said, "It seems that Zuo Pingzhang already knows what Xiao Lu admits. Yes, he did confess you, but what kind of person is Lord Xiao? Can you not know about it? Stand up and talk."
Xiao Zhen was stunned and then stood up.
Half an hour later, Xiao Zhen left the city's deployment house in a panic. After he left, Yelu Qin walked out of the back room. "I have been sick recently and cannot meet guests. Thank you for your hard work, you need to talk to these brainless fools."
Yelu Shege: "What are you talking about? Although Xiao Jin is stupid, his official position is not small, and we still have the use of it. From now on, he has the handle in our hands, so he will definitely not have any unfair intentions." He paused, "By the way, who is Qiao Jiu? Why did Xiao Lu confess that he wants to blame him?"
Yelu Qin's face changed: "This person... I have really heard of it. Your Highness knows that Xiao Lu has always wanted to please Your Highness. Now it seems that he has evil intentions and has some intentions. That day, he went to a banquet at Xiao's house. After the banquet, His Highness and Xiao Lu went to appreciate the paintings. Xiao Jin once told me that Qiao Jiu was a tea merchant in Song Dynasty that Xiao Lu knew. He was rich and had a handsome and beautiful son."
Brother Yelu She was stunned and showed a playful smile: "I remembered it, Xiao Lu also told me that the person he was talking about was Qiao Jiu."
"Because of Qiao Jiu's affairs, Your Highness alienated Xiao Lu, and Xiao Lu had a grudge. After Xiao Lu's most trusted shopkeeper was caught, he confessed that Xiao Lu hated Qiao Jiu and had always wanted to kill Qiao Jiu. I think Xiao Lu knew that he had no chance of survival this time, so he deliberately framed Qiao Jiu."
Yelu Shege nodded slightly, and the room was silent.
After a while, Yelu Shege suddenly said, "His son is really beautiful?"
Others would never use the word "beauty" when others evaluate a man. But Yelu Shege said that, and Yelu Qin didn't think there was anything wrong. He said casually: "I have never seen him. If your highness likes him, just find someone to be charged and arrest him."
Yelu Shege: "I am not a robber, how can I tie people up casually?"
Yelu Qin immediately changed his words: "Yes, I am the one who said it wrong. Please punish your highness."
Yelu Shege sighed, "It's a big deal, I have no interest in these romantic affairs."
On the other hand, after Xiao Zhen returned to the mansion, Qiao Jiu had been waiting for him for a long time.
When Xiao Zhen saw Qiao Jiu, he felt complicated. He knew that he had been forced to board the second prince's pirate ship and would be the enemy of the third prince's party from then on. Prince's Grand Tutor Yelu Ding would never spare him easily.
Qiao Jiu: "Sir, we are in trouble! The villain just wants to come to Xijin Mansion to do business. Who would have thought that this would happen?"
Xiao Zhen: "The Second Prince is wise and powerful, and he was not deceived by Xiao Lu, and believed his nonsense."
After saying this, Xiao Jin felt close to Qiao Jiu. Everyone said that they were sharing weal and woe, and he sighed: "But don't relax your vigilance. The second highness said he trusted us, but who knows when he would suddenly attack? Alas, life is getting harder and harder."
Qiao Jiu gave a gift and returned to the mansion.
After learning the news, Su Wenyun was a little surprised: "Brother Yelu She let Xiao Jin go?" He didn't expect that Xiao Jin was not suspected. If this were the case, it would probably be not so easy for him to instigate Xiao Jin.
Qiao Jiu said everything Xiao Jin said.
Su Wenyun sneered: "That Brother Yelu She is not a stupid person, it is very easy to win people's hearts. I'm afraid he has done it many times before. But after this incident, we and Xiao Jin have become friends on the same boat. How did Xiao Lu please Xiao Jin in the past? Have you learned how to learn?"
Qiao Jiu: "Please rest assured, sir."
Su Wenyun: "It is not necessary to instigate him to be his confidant, and we can still find out the news from him. And after he became the second prince party, we can get more information from him. How could we know that it is wrong for Sai Weng to lose his horse?" After pausing, he said, "Previously, Xiao Lu often asked Lord Tang to see the second prince. I always think something is wrong. If you look carefully, you can find out that there is something abnormal."
Qiao Jiu: "Yes."
For several days, Qiao Jiu visited Xiao Jin every day and gave him a generous gift. Xiao Jin gradually regarded him as his own person, and finally told the truth after drinking. Qiao Jiu was shocked and immediately went back to report to Su Wenyun.
Su Wenyun: “…”
That night, Lord Su wrote a letter in person and sent it back to Youzhou City overnight.
Tang Shen received the letter, saying that the letter was urgent and it took only one day and one night to deliver the letter to Youzhou. Tang Shen attached great importance to it. He opened it anxiously and then said: "..."
There are only two short lines of words on the letter.
Yelu Shege has a habit of dragon yang.
Lord Tang is really brilliant.
Tang Shen burned the letter speechlessly and said to himself: "How did I know that he is a broken sleeve? I didn't change it with you on purpose. What do you mean by being a brilliant brother? Even if Yelu She is not a broken sleeve, Xijin Mansion is also a den of a dragon and tiger. If you go there, are you still afraid of a second prince?"
When Tang Shen received the letter, Wang Qin was beside him, and Tang Shen did not avoid him.
Seeing Tang Shen’s face unhappy, Wang Qin asked, “What happened?”
Tang Shen silently said, and finally curled the corner of his mouth, as if he was suing him, and told Wang Qin everything Su Wenyun said.
Tang Shen also felt extremely aggrieved: "Senior brother, tell me, that Yelu She is a broken sleeve. This is not what I forced him to break his sleeve. He was born! Su Wenyun was going to Xijin Mansion, so what does it have to do with me? He was not forced to go there."
Wang Qin frowned slightly and didn't say anything.
Tang Shen: "Senior Brother?"
Wang Zhen woke up after a dream and said, "What's going on in Xijin Mansion now?"
After the two of them revealed this, Tang Shen talked about the situation in Xijin Mansion again. "Su Wenyun is quite capable, but unfortunately she was unable to instigate Xiao Jin. I originally wanted to frame Xiao Lu with the assassin to open up the relationship with Xiao Jin. But time was too tight, and I didn't think of a way, but with such an idea. Lord Su did it completely."
Wang Qin: "Do you know why the emperor likes Su Wenyun?"
Tang Shen became interested: "Why?"
Zhao Fu liked Li Jingde because Li Jingde made countless achievements and had no ambitions, and just wanted to kill all the Liao people. He liked himself, and Tang Shen also understood that it was mainly because he was humble and had no background, and was also good at playing rainbow farts. As for Wang Qin, Zhao Fu's favor for Wang Qin, it would be better to say that Wang Qin was too fond of Zhao Fu's heart everywhere.
Wang Qin did everything Zhao Fu wanted to do, what he had not done, and what he wanted to do.
Even if this emperor is not Zhao Fu, as long as he is an emperor, he will definitely favor Wang Qin.
But what about Su Wenyun?
