MTL - Essential Accomplishments of A Perfect White Moonlight-Chapter 92
Entering the palace to face the saint as usual, but the difference is that this time Jiang Yi faced the saint alone. Jiang Yi's face was calm, but the words in his mouth were as shocking as stormy waves.
The fact that Prime Minister Jian has a close personal relationship with King Jiang Xia already made the emperor take it seriously.
It has been several years since I found out about this matter, but it was finally determined what King Jiang Xia was plotting. The emperor frowned and asked Jiang Yi to explain in detail.
Jiang Yi started talking about the discovery of the South China Sea tribute in Dingbei Hou's mansion a few years ago, and then gradually pulled the hidden Jian's mansion out of the water. Jiang Yi remembered all the details of the past few years clearly. And say every word is wrong.
Until Princess Lin'an came to Beijing recently, Princess Lin'an deliberately made the incident between her and Jian Yuyan known all over the city, and Wei Xiongjie, who was traveling with Princess Lin'an recently, also had frequent contact with Jian Xiang and so on.
The more the emperor heard it, the more serious his face became. Being in a high position was full of suspicions. One doubtful point was enough for him to take it seriously, let alone a lot of doubts. What's more, Jiang Yi is an important minister personally promoted by the emperor. He was admired in his heart when he was young and promising, but now many years have passed and he has become one of the most trusted ministers. Although Jiang Yi and the prince are very friendly, and even the outside world automatically attributes Jiang Yi to the prince's side, in fact, the person who values Jiang Yi the most is still the current emperor.
The emperor might still be skeptical when other people uttered such shocking news, but if Jiang Yi said it, the emperor would have believed most of it, not to mention that it was King Jiang Xia whom he had been obsessed with for many years.
After the emperor was silent for a long time, his eyes fell on Jiang Yi's face and he said in a low voice, "I know your temper, if you don't have sufficient evidence, you won't tell me, so, besides that, what else do you know?"
"I also know that all these news were deliberately disclosed by Princess Lin'an," Jiang Yi said.
"What do you mean by that?" the emperor was startled, and motioned Jiang Yi to sit down.
"At the beginning, I went to Hangzhou to welcome Princess Lin'an, and spent some time with her in Beijing. Later, the princess went out of her way when she came to Beijing, and I couldn't help being suspicious..."
Only then did Jiang Yi reveal Yan Yiming's flaws one by one, and the emperor became more and more confused as he listened, "The princess of Lin'an County was born to King Jiangxia, so why would she show such flaws? I grew up next to Wang, but I miss my country."
The reason here is something that Jiang Yi couldn't tell. Jiang Yi smiled and said, "I don't know what the Lord of Lin'an is asking for, but I would rather believe it or not. It is true that King Jiang Xia has despised the emperor for many years. It is also true that the Prime Minister has had a close personal relationship with King Jiang Xia for many years, please let your majesty think about it."
Jiang Yi doesn't know what she wants, but he will always remember that when A Ming was chatting with him, he said that now His Majesty cares about the country and loves the people, the country is peaceful all over the world, and the people live and work in peace. How can it be compared with Jiang Xia Wang and other rebellious officials and thieves.
The emperor nodded, no matter who the princess of Lin'an is, the most important thing at this time is still the matter of Prime Minister Jian. If Xiang Jian really colluded with King Jiangxia, Prime Minister Jian has been in power for so many years, and Jian Yuyan grew up beside the prince as a companion. Thinking about it is already creepy.
"Then Yi Aiqing, where should we start with this matter?"
"I believe that now that the jackals have not appeared, we must not scare the snakes. The first thing is to deploy troops to fill the vacancy in the south of the Yangtze River just in case, and the second is to go along with the flow and investigate secretly."
There are more soldiers in the south of the Yangtze River, less foreign forces and more internal forces. Strengthening defenses is part of the emperor's recent plan, and the secret investigation to find evidence shows that Jiang Yi really has no intention of framing him.
It's just that if Jian Xiangzhen has been planning for many years, it will be even more difficult to check now.
"There are so many clues, His Majesty can thoroughly investigate one person."
"Who?"
Jiang Yi smiled, his handsome face still calmly said a person's name,
"Master Jian's residence, Jian Yuyan."
Jian Xiang has been hiding in the government and the public for more than 20 years. It is not easy to investigate now, but then again, as long as you really want to investigate, you will always find clues.
Once the seed of doubt is planted, it will inevitably lead to many creeping vines.
The emperor never disturbed the people in the court, and secretly launched an investigation. He did not directly target Jianxiang, but investigated other people from what Jiang Yi said, such as Dingbeihou and others who almost married Jianxiang at the beginning. , In addition, focus on investigating Jian Yuyan's identity.
The emperor didn't pay much attention to Jian Yuyan, but after half a month, he really found out many clues.
For example, Jian Yuyan was not Jian Xiang's biological son.
It turned out that Jian Yuyan was not the biological child of Jian Xiang and Mrs. Jian, but the son of Jian Xiang's sister and the man who was adopted by Master Jian as a foster son. The two passed away for unknown reasons after Jian Yuyan was born, except for those elders who had been very trustworthy in Jian's family for many years. Except for the slave, all those who knew about it disappeared overnight.
Only then did the emperor realize that the matter was extraordinary, and immediately ordered people to continue the investigation, but no other facts could be found out.
The identity of that man, Jian Yuyan's biological father, is still a mystery.
It is nothing to raise a nephew as a son, but the Jian family did not hesitate to kill all those who knew about it in order to conceal the matter. This trip was enough to arouse the emperor's suspicion.
What is the Jane family trying to hide?
What is the secret of Jian Yuyan's identity?
At the beginning, because he never suspected anything, he never noticed the problem. Now the emperor quietly and comprehensively investigated when Jane and the others were unprepared, and it really allowed him to find out a lot of things in a short time.
All kinds of signs made the emperor more and more convinced that Jian Xiang, who had been lurking for many years, was indeed not as loyal and kind as he appeared on the surface.
But for many years, Jian Xiang has always secretly supported the prince. When Jian Yuyan was sent to the palace to study with him, the emperor turned a blind eye. Now that Jian Xiang has changed, what about the prince?
Is it kept in the dark, or is it the same as Jian Xiang, Jiang Xia Wang and others...
The emperor was very suspicious, even his own son couldn't help being suspicious. Jiang Yi saw it, and after leaving the palace, he reminded the prince that His Majesty was dissatisfied with Prime Minister Jane recently and asked him not to get too close to Prime Minister Jane.
The crown prince is close to the Jian family. Jiang Yi directly told Nangong Xuan that the Jian family had treasonous intentions. Nangong Xuanding would not believe it all. Jiang Yi put pressure on His Majesty. Nangong Xuan did not doubt that he was there but asked him directly. why.
"His Majesty found out a few days ago that Prime Minister Jian has a very close personal relationship with King Jiang Xia."
Nangong Xuan was stunned for a moment, feeling inconceivable.
But this was what his father suspected, Nangong Xuan thought of his father's strange expression in recent days, and finally understood what was going on, but it was still unbelievable no matter what.
Jiang Yi smiled lightly and didn't think anything was wrong. He just mentioned a private matter between the crown prince and Jian Yu'er at the right time, and said, "At the beginning, His Highness was interested in Miss Jian, and the Queen Mother also agreed, but in the end he missed the marriage. Except..."
Speaking of this, Jiang Yi paused before continuing, "Except for the reason of the Crown Princess, does your Highness remember what Jianxiang did back then?"
Nangong Xuan recalled that at the beginning, he was close to Jian Yu'er, and even mentioned it to his mother, who also passed Jian Yu'er into the palace, but the matter was left behind.
Thinking of this incident, I always thought it was because of Ah Ming, but now that I think about it, Nangong Xuan suddenly remembered something. At the beginning, Jian Yuer cried in front of him. The reason is that Prime Minister Jian did not allow her to get close to him, but the reason was that she did not want Jian Yuer to marry him. royal.
Now that I think about it, I thought it would be so simple?
Jiang Yi said so far, the prince is not a stupid person who doesn't know right from wrong, the emperor is suspicious of the prince, but Jiang Yi has known the prince for many years, but he understands that the prince is also kept in the dark.
After more than a month of investigation, Prime Minister Jian hadn't revealed anything, but the Marquis of Dingbei had really found out something.
Dingbeihou is also a general of the third-rank guard, in charge of the 100,000 forbidden troops in the Jinling capital. , It turned out to be the daughter of Duke Zhongyi of the previous dynasty.
The pen in the emperor's hand fell to the table with a "snap", and he was shocked.
If it is said that King Jiangxia made the emperor restless all night, then the word "former court" is enough to wake the emperor up from his dream.
The emperor was furious in court.
Jiang Yi didn't have time to enter the palace, and the emperor ordered people to surround Dingbeihou's mansion in a rage without giving anyone time to react.
In the autumn of Chen Xia's fifty-fourth year, Dingbeihou, the third-rank general of the guard, had suspicions with the previous dynasty, and his whole family was sent to prison. No one dared to plead for Dingbeihou.
No matter which emperor he was, he couldn't tolerate any existence related to the previous dynasty.
A few days later, a riot broke out in Nanping, far south of Jinling, and His Majesty ordered it in a rage. After sending people to suppress it, he ordered Shao Jingyu, the hussar general guarding far away in the northwest, to return to Beijing to report on his duties, and take over the hundreds of thousands of troops in the south of the Yangtze River. The post of General Guard is in charge of the imperial army.
The two points Jiang Yi raised with the emperor a month ago have now been fully implemented.
Jiang Yi had a clue in his heart, but Jian Xiang was terrified in his heart. The emperor didn't give them any time to react. When he heard the news, Ding Beihou was arrested and put into the prison. Now his life and death are uncertain.
Jian Xiang was frightened and angry that the emperor was so domineering, but he was even more distressed that all the 100,000 marching troops after the fall of Dingbeihou belonged to others. This kind of loss was like breaking his own leg.
If you trust General Wei to make friends with him, it will be saved, but the emperor didn't give the courtiers a chance at all, and directly ordered Shao Jingyu to return to Beijing.
Shao Jingyu broke away from the Shao family back then, and had a bad relationship with him because of Yu'er's affairs. His Majesty was kind to him. Jian Xiang felt more and more uneasy about such a person. He didn't know why the emperor suddenly found out about this matter. It was discovered unintentionally, but digging step by step, will eventually lead the fire to him.
Whether it is Jian Xiang, or Wei Xiongjie and others, these days, they are all trembling and restless all night whenever there is a disturbance. Only Yan Yiming watched Jian Xiang's matter go down step by step, and he could see the dawn of returning home more and more.
Wei Xiongjie persuaded her to keep a low profile recently, Yan Yiming shook his head in disapproval, the low-key matter is not just to let others find out, Wei Xiongjie said but she can only let her go on, more come to Wei Xiongjie and others, Yan Yiming has a long time He breathed a sigh of relief and sat in the deserted Maple Leaf, looking at the fallen Maple Leaf.
Someone came slowly behind him, and Little Apple was about to speak out in a hurry, but the person behind him called Ah Ming, his voice was clearer and gentler, as familiar and natural as it was many years ago.
Yan Yiming subconsciously agreed, and then suddenly realized, turning around suddenly, Jiang Yi stood in the maple forest and looked at her quietly.
She was dressed in snow and had black hair, and an incomparably handsome face, smiling so gently at this moment.
