Chapter 383: He’s going to kill me!
The emperor’s question pulled Zhao Su’s attention back.
This small wooden box that Marquis Jingnan had hidden was full of evidence, if they didn’t still have this, there was no way for them to corroborate his crimes so smoothly. And these evidences revealed a very important information, that is, Mrs. Luo was involved with him, that is to say, over the years, the Luo family was indeed involved in these plots behind the scenes, and was even also involved in the death of the eldest princess back then?
Answering the emperor’s question was tantamount to further admitting the crime. Zhao Su thought that Marquis Jingnan wouldn’t give an explanation how painfully, but he didn’t know that when he raised his head, he even laughed miserably, “Your Majesty is asking the wrong question, it’s not that I colluded with the Luo family, but that the Luo family single-handedly concocted the conspiracy, and that this series of consequences came from the hands of Eunuch Luo!”
He braced himself on the ground and stood up shakily, “Things have come to this, what else do I have to hide? You guys are not wrong, Her Highness’ death was not an accident, the arrow that was shot at her was deliberately sent by the soldiers of the Three Thousand Battalion. And this action was authorized by Taishi Luo, who was being trusted by the late emperor at the time!”
He picked up the box that was set aside by the emperor on the desktop and opened it, taking out several letters, “These were all left behind by me before I set out for Guangxi in the first place, and they were written in the handwriting of Taishi Luo. Originally, I was not in the troops and horses that went south, he found me and said that he would recommend me to go in and let me get a credit for nothing, but the condition is that I have to do what he said. At first I did not realize that his purpose was to make a move toward His Highness, but only thought that he wanted to draw me into an alliance with him, and therefore agreed.
“Wait until the Ministry of war issued by the expedition roster really have my name, and I in the Ministry of war set on listening to the analysis of the enemy situation in guangxi, learned that this battle is not much important battle, this go really like Luo Taishi said, can white share a credit, I am more do not want to put down. Which know halfway I received Luo Taishi sent people to convey the news, he let me be responsible for the use of the generals of the Great Liang so that His Highness ‘sacrifice’ in the sand!
“I have no grudges or grudges against Her Highness the Eldest Princess, and even have a bit of fellowship, so I naturally refused, but the Luo family’s people said that if I didn’t agree in this matter, I would be summoned back to the court. In the past, although I have saved some achievements, but still can not be ranked in the ranks of the Lords and Marquises, but such as Guangxi this battle with my participation, in any case, I will also be remembered a. “The Luo family took advantage of the situation, but also a little bit of friendship.
“Luo family people take advantage of the situation to persuade me, the Empress Dowager promised the Princess triumph after the knighthood – I was persuaded to move, but I am also afraid of taking the blame, and therefore put forward the conditions, so that the Luo masters must leave a paper and a half of the words of the handwritten letter to me as a voucher, just in case the next day after the incident, he retreated.
“Luo family people go back to resume orders, and then came back to me, gave a reply, also brought his own letter. However, he was also cautious and asked me to write a note in exchange for collateral. So now he has evidence of my involvement, and we have been tied together for a long time.
“Anyway, I have no way back. In the battlefield, His Highness is naturally defenseless against those around him, so there are not too many opportunities to strike. I delayed again and again, and finally Luo Taishi also used the opportunity to transport grain and grass in the dynasty to send people to send a letter to urge, I can not shirk delay, so in the last minute down the hand.”
He raised his head, “I am just a puppet! The person who really can’t tolerate your highness is him! He, Luo Ji, is the culprit!”
The accusing voice went from low to high, and in the end, it became a hiss.
The emperor did not move, moving is Huo Xiu, he pounced over, the first to Jingnan Hou chest kicked a foot, and then pinched his neck, instantly only heard the click of the click of the bones, accompanied by Huo Xiu hissing in pain and anger. Jingnan Hou made resistance, but where he can carry a youth who is crazy for his mother who died early at this time? Marquis Jingnan was buckled to the ground, his forehead veins popping out, the two once again fought into a ball!
The emperor reached out to let Zhao Sum forward to stop, Zhao Sum forward, pressed Huo Xiu arm: “This guy killed more than your mother, but also to kill the court ministers, this is by no means your hand to kill it can deal with the past!”
Huo Xiu listened to the party slowly stopped, a pair of red eyes contained as if not tears, but the Princess of the year spilled on the sands of blood!
The emperor said: “Luo family side of the situation?”
The guard outside the room door came in: “Back to the emperor, two quarters of an hour ago, Zhang Shangshu has arrived at the Luo family.”
The emperor withdrew his gaze, “Tell the forbidden guards department to blockade Marquis Jingnan’s mansion and guard the Yu family’s old and young!”
“Obey the order!”
“Take Yu Huai Cheng with you and return to the palace!”
The emperor swept a glance at Zhao Sum and Han Jun before stepping out of the room.
Originally at this time Zhao Su and Zhao Sum should be at home to feast and enjoy the moon, but before the feast was the emperor an imperial decree was passed to the door of the Yu family, it turned out that the emperor did not go out of the palace of this day and night, but has already put the Marquis of Jingnan to the eye, and also quite a prophetic decree to the guards, to take down the Marquis of Jingnan’s side of the guard, and then through the guards will escape out of the city of those two cooperate with Marquis of Jingnan’s accomplices in the drama to capture back!
At the same time, the emperor has preemptively ordered Zhang Yu to go to the Luo family to contact the master Luo Ji, but as he planned, here the Marquis of Jingnan accounted for the crime, the side can also be taken Luo Ji!
Zhao Su asked the emperor: “Do I have to go to the palace too?”
The emperor stopped, but said: “You first do not enter the palace, go to the Luo family, see Luo Yanru.”
Zhao Su immediately reacted, Luo Yanru is still detained in the Luo family, in the end what happened is not yet known, in addition, Luo Ji is treacherous and slippery, may not be as smooth as the Marquis of Jingnan to account for the crime, Luo Yanru side can not be ignored!
She then no longer hesitate, turn around and flower want to go to the Luo family.
……
Once the change came out, time also seems to pass faster.
In the backyard of the Luo family, which is covered by night, it is as quiet as ever. Luo Yanru woke up from her dream, and immediately went down to the ground with bare feet. The couch in the corner of the room immediately rang out, it was the maid on night watch who flicked the light on: “Miss! You’re awake!”
She stared blankly at the maid with swollen eyes, then said, “What time is it?”
“It’s almost the eleventh hour, Miss, you’ve been asleep for two hours!”
Luo Yanru held her forehead and sat down, she remembered, after being escorted back to her room by the grannies, she struggled for a while and then fainted again, unconscious. She remembered that Luo Ting’er arrived before she fainted and asked, “Where is Sister Ting’er?” Grandfather had gone mad, it was better not to involve them!
“The second girl has been here several times, girl don’t be anxious, the slave girl will first have someone pass a message over!”
The maid said and walked to the window, knocking on the window door and whispering a few words of explanation.
Luo Yanru waited for her to return and asked, “Hasn’t grandfather already given strict orders, how can she still come?”
“You don’t know, the old master did order the girl to be strictly forbidden to go out, and no one is allowed to visit her, but at night, Zhang Shangshu from the Ministry of Rites came to visit, and for some reason, he even brought a lot of people in front of the Luo family’s door. Now Zhang Shangshu hasn’t left, and the old master hasn’t come out, so we bribed the people outside to deliver a letter to the second girl.”
