Chapter 295: The Queen was seriously injured and unconscious in order to save His Majesty! ?
However, I don't care what the Eighth Prince has done.
Anyway, the officials all knew that this matter must be understood clearly.
Moreover, a memorial to the emperor to ask about his safety is also necessary.
Therefore, many officials began to write memorials and sent people to the Dali Temple, Jingzhao Prefecture, and the Ministry of Justice to inquire about the matter.
After all, this happened too suddenly.
Especially those who were close to the Eighth Prince, they stopped talking and immediately started writing a moving letter of wailing, hastily distancing themselves from the Eighth Prince.
And those officials who were originally defined as the Eighth Prince's subordinates sat in their own mansions in a daze, not knowing what to do.
The Eighth Prince rebelled.
What do they belong to?
Immediately, these people hurriedly sent people to inquire about the truth of the matter, and at the same time, they hurriedly wrote memorials to the emperor in an attempt to distance themselves from the matter.
Some loyal ones, after considering many things, hurriedly wrote letters to Yan, and some even planned to pack up and flee.
However, as soon as he had the idea of escaping, people from the Dali Temple came to his house and said that he had to stay in the mansion for the time being, and they even directly brought a warrant from the Ministry of Personnel.
Everything seemed to have been arranged long ago.
But does anyone care about this right now?
No one cares anymore!
The Eighth Prince rebelled, that's a fact.
Although the official document did not mention any details, it was enough to know that the Eighth Prince was rebelling!
At the Prince of Yan's Mansion, those who came to confiscate the property under the imperial order were the Minister of Punishments Lu Qingxu, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel Wei Xuancheng, the current Junior Yin of Jingzhao Prefecture Yang Guofu, and Lord Yan Ciyan, who is now the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Personnel.
Wei Xuancheng and Yan Ci looked down on Yang Guofu, so they just stood in the lobby of Prince Yan's Mansion and looked at the valuables that were being carried out.
Lu Qingxu, the stern female official, did not speak to anyone because she was busy recording all the servants in Prince Yan's Mansion. All of them had to be taken back because there were too many things to be questioned in detail!
Regicide is a great crime!
Especially with such a well-planned assassination plan, it must have been planned for a long time. This female official, who has been serving as the Minister of Justice since the previous emperor, has been prepared to live in the Ministry of Justice these days.
These people didn't talk to him, and Yang Guofu didn't want to pay any attention to Wei Xuancheng and Yan Ci.
This one-eyed fat man took his men for a stroll in Prince Yan's mansion.
This was the first time he came to this mansion, mainly because he had a conflict with the Eighth Prince, so he had never been here before.
but
Yang Guofu listened to what his father said.
In the imperial edict given to his father, the emperor specifically asked him to come and search the property. Yang Guofu had learned his lesson now and immediately understood what the emperor wanted him to do.
After all, there are some things that the adults outside cannot do.
Then it is very clear that this time when the Prince of Yan's mansion was raided, it was not the house that was raided, but the evidence!!
What evidence!
Weren't there those rumors this morning?
Find evidence of those!
Walking in the back garden of Prince Yan's mansion, looking at the beautiful back garden in the snow, Yang Guofu shook his head: "A prince who made the garden more beautiful than the palace must be planning a rebellion."
After saying this, Yang Guofu shook his head and looked at his men beside him and said, "Remember, the Yanwang Mansion garden is full of precious plants, which is extremely luxurious. A rough estimate is that the back garden cost more than 10,000 to 50,000 taels of silver."
The person next to me is also a smart man. He wrote it down immediately without any hesitation.
Yang Guofu looked at the man with one eye and immediately sighed, "There will definitely be a snowstorm this year. How many people are living in poverty. Your Majesty and the Queen's wedding was so frugal, but Xia Chenfeng, the traitor, is so extravagant. Hey! Let's go and take a look over there."
The man beside him immediately said, "Master Yang is right. I will write all of this down first, and then catch up with you, Master."
Yang Guofu nodded, then asked with concern: "We just came out of his study, and those letters have been recorded."
The man was stunned for a moment, then remembered that Lord Yang had said that those letters from Kong Xin contained treasonous words, so he nodded immediately and said, "I'll make a note of it."
Yang Guofu looked at the official from the Dali Temple with great satisfaction and found him very pleasing to the eye.
Then he turned and walked towards the side of the garden.
But as he walked, Yang Guofu kept looking at the rockery.
Yang Guofu walked over and examined it carefully.
He also knocked on it with his hands.
After being suspicious for a long time, Yang Guofu turned his head and shouted to several Dali Temple officers on the side: "Come here and move this rockery and see."
When the Dali Temple officers heard this, they all ran over, curious about the purpose of moving the rockery.
Although the rockery is not big, they can move it with the combined strength of several people.
but.
Although he was curious, he still obeyed orders and planned to move it away.
but
When moving it, they found that the rockery was heavier than they had imagined, as if it was firmly embedded in the ground.
Yang Guofu looked at the movement, was silent for a moment and then said: "Touch every corner of the rockery."
When the Dali Temple officials heard this, they did the same thing.
Then
Buzz~~~
Just when an officer came across an inconspicuous part of the rockery, the entire rockery suddenly moved on its own.
Afterwards, a hole appeared under the rockery.
See this hole.
Yang Guofu slapped his thigh immediately: "Damn it! I knew there must be a secret room! If it's not in the study, then it must be over here in the garden!"
Talking
Yang Guofu immediately walked into the hole that was the size of a person.
When an officer saw a torch at the entrance of the cave, he immediately lit it.
The cave was not deep, and I reached the end after walking a short distance. However, when I turned my head,
Yang Guofu and others were stunned.
Because a bunch of knives were hung on the walls of the dark room in the cave, and there was a large pile of them in the corner. In addition, there were also a large pile of bows and arrows, armor and other weapons.
And right in the middle, there is a sand table.
Yang Guofu looked over there intently.
Isn’t this a sand table of the capital city!
On the sand table, various routes for escaping from the Prince of Yan's Mansion to the capital are clearly marked.
On one side of the sand table, there is also a blueprint of the imperial city.
There are also several letters that are unsigned.
However, just when Yang Guofu was about to open the letter to read, he was suddenly stunned and immediately put the letter back.
Then he turned his head to look at the weapons around him and said subconsciously: "Xia Chenfeng really plans to..."
At this point, Yang Guofu quickly shut up, then looked at the letters again, wondering whether he should put them away and present them to the emperor now.
But after thinking about it, I shook my head, because this is not a matter of stealing credit.
So he immediately looked at the officers and said, "Call all those gentlemen here right now! Tell them that they found evidence that Xia Chenfeng was planning a rebellion!!"
Upon hearing this, those people immediately clasped their fists and turned away.
Yang Guofu looked down at the 'escape route' on the sand table.
A little helpless.
Damn it, this guy has such a small courage, but he is doing such a thing. He even got the blueprint of the palace and is still trying to figure out an escape route.
Hey~~
Otherwise, my dad looks down on you and never bothers to even look at you!
With such little courage, how could he even think of killing the king?
Thinking like this
Yang Guofu picked up a small object that looked like a mark and quietly placed it on the sand table in the imperial study in the Zhonghe Hall of the imperial palace. He also placed a few more in the Lingqi Pavilion.
In fact, Yang Guofu still doesn’t know the specific details of the Eighth Prince’s rebellion. He only knows that the incident happened in Jiuyufang, and all the assassins were killed, and among them were the Eighth Prince’s men.
but.
Now Yang Guofu didn't dare to know more. Anyway, he was sent to confiscate the property, so he would do the job.
After a while, Lu Qingxu, Wei Xuancheng and Yan Ci hurried over.
When they arrived at the dark room, they were also surprised.
Especially when I saw the marks on the sand table, I immediately gasped.
Yang Guofu pointed to the letters on the table and said, "My Lords, I suggest that these letters be presented to Your Majesty immediately."
Lu Qingxu nodded: "That's right."
After saying that, he looked at Yang Guofu and said, "This secret room has a lot of implications! If Lord Yang finds this secret room, I will definitely report it to His Majesty!"
Yang Guofu immediately bowed and said, "No, no, it's all ours. Besides, Xia Chenfeng's rebellion is a fact. These physical evidences are just icing on the cake. They are nothing."
Hearing this
At the same time, he said sternly: "Master Yang, don't refuse. Your contribution is your contribution. Moreover, this secret room is so hidden. If Master Yang hadn't discovered it, we would never have thought of it. But I have a question. How did Master Yang know that such a hidden secret room was located at the rockery?"
Yang Guofu was stunned for a moment, then said, "I happened to see something strange when I was passing by, so I was lucky, lucky."
However, Yang Guofu felt a little embarrassed when he spoke.
I secretly cursed myself for getting too complacent and forgetting that these guys are all shrewd people!
At the same time, Yang Guofu was thinking about filling up the dark room under the rockery in his mansion when he returned! !
Yan Ci and the other two naturally saw it clearly, but no one said anything. They just lowered their heads and looked at the sand table with frowns.
There are so many weapons, and they are all marked at the palace and the city gates, just like an escape plan after regicide!
This is ironclad physical evidence!
However, Yang Guofu looked at the adults and wanted to leave quickly. After all, he still had to "find" evidence for the rumors that spread in the morning!
Those things are his real purpose!
Therefore, Yang Guofu immediately said: "My Lords, I..."
When Yang Guofu started talking about this.
I saw an officer hurriedly ran into the dark room and saluted to several people: "Greetings, everyone. This is what Lord Dugu asked me to bring to you. Lord Di Hui saw it with his own eyes today. Lord Dugu said that after you have read it, it will be helpful to find evidence in these matters."
Lu Qingxu reached out to take the letter, and Wei Xuancheng, Yan Ci, and Yang Guofu came over to take a look.
Because they actually don't know the specific details.
Because they just received a handwritten order saying that the Eighth Prince had committed regicide, and they were ordered to come and confiscate the property.
But this look.
Several people's expressions were all horrified.
"So many realms, eighth and ninth levels." Lu Qingxu spoke subconsciously.
But as he continued to watch, Lu Qingxu immediately looked at the officer: "The Queen was seriously injured while saving His Majesty!? The extent of the injury is unknown, and she is still in a coma??!"
After hearing what Lu Qingxu said, several people looked at the contents below the letter.
and.
Just when the people who were in charge of confiscating the property learned about this.
In the capital, the news spread like a gust of wind to all parts of the city.
but
It's more like someone spread it deliberately.
In less than half an hour, everyone in the capital knew the identities of the assassins who tried to kill His Majesty!
I also learned that the Queen was seriously injured while trying to save His Majesty, the extent of her injuries is unknown, and she was also in a coma!!
then
The capital city was in an uproar again!!
…
“A-choo!”
In Lingqi Pavilion, Su Changan had just taken a mouthful of porridge when he couldn't help but sneeze.
But luckily he swallowed it, otherwise he might have sprayed it in the face of the empress who was feeding him.
However, Su Changan rubbed his nose and looked at the letter in his hand.
The letter was one of the many letters Fang Wenhe left for Xia Fengxiang.
