The person who came in was Zhu Youtang. Zhu Youtang held his hands behind his hands, took off the crown of heaven on his head, handed it to the eunuch beside him, walked in step by step, and said with a stern face: "Liu Chengfeng, you are quite courageous.
I dare to inspect Prince Ning's chariots, but those who don't know about it think that I am a cold-blooded person and secretly ordered you to embarrass the clan."
He then looked around and said, "Everyone who is not relevant should go down. I have something to say to Liu Chengfeng."
The eunuchs bowed and left one after another.
Zhu Youtang sat arrogantly behind the imperial desk, his eyes fell on Liu Chengfeng who looked a little embarrassed, and said: "You don't have to be nervous, come, sit down and talk."
Liu Chengfeng sat down and said with a chuckle: "Wei Chen is not nervous, he is nervous."
"Oh?" Zhu Youtang smiled: "Why are you nervous?"
Liu Chengfeng said sternly: "I heard this, if you are a minister to others, the emperor will worry about his ministers' hard work, and the emperor will humiliate his ministers to death. And if your majesty is being embarrassed, shouldn't the humble ministers have to be nervous?"
Zhu Youtang laughed and couldn't help but said: "It's interesting, but you are too cunning."
Liu Chengfeng said: "Why is Wei Chen so naughty?"
Zhu Youtang's eyes flashed with a glimmer of light, and he smiled slightly and said: "I only said that I was in trouble and made you nervous, but I didn't say why you wanted to search Prince Ning's car. This is not to avoid the important and take the easy, but to be cunning. Tell me, from now on
What did Prince Ning find out?"
Liu Chengfeng shrugged: "Originally, the minister wanted to take advantage of the rumors in the palace to check whether there were any forbidden items from the Ming religion in Prince Ning's chariot. It's a pity that Prince Ning and his son were so thorough in their work.
Not found out."
Zhu Youtang thought about it and felt that what Liu Chengfeng did was not wrong. Prince Ning suspected that it was related to Mingjiao. If he investigated it step by step, he didn't know when it would happen. For this reason, under the guise of avenging private revenge, he
This can avoid alerting the enemy.
Zhu Youtang thought this because he didn't know Prince Ning thoroughly enough, but for Liu Chengfeng, he had roughly figured out Prince Ning's temperament. This old fox was very alert, and Liu Chengfeng did this. No.
He crossed Chencang secretly, but lured the snake out of the hole. Just these words. Of course, he couldn't tell Zhu Youtang. It wouldn't be too late to take credit after the matter came to an end.
The atmosphere in the Zhengxin Palace calmed down for a moment, Liu Chengfeng smiled slightly, and then said: "Your Majesty, although the Mingjiao case has been solved, the rumors in the palace have already begun."
"Oh? Who is it?" Zhu Youtang's face darkened, a little angry.
Zhu Youtang was very angry. Someone actually dared to spread rumors and cause trouble in the palace. In fact, if it was just rumors, it would be fine, but when his own daughter was involved, this was unforgivable.
Liu Chengfeng smiled slightly: "Your Majesty, please summon Eunuch Xiao, the eunuch who is responsible for the etiquette, and Guo Yong, the eunuch who is responsible for the seal. Only when they are here can this matter be explained clearly."
Zhu Youtang couldn't help but frown when he heard the two people Liu Chengfeng called. These two people in the palace were considered eunuchs that Zhu Youtang didn't dislike, especially Xiao Jing. Zhu Youtang had always maintained politeness with him.
This Xiao Jing has a good impression in Zhu Youtang's heart. He is diligent, capable, and quite honest. Could this matter also have something to do with him?
There was a trace of suspicion in Zhu Youtang's eyes, and a bit of coldness. If this matter involved these two close confidants in the palace, Zhu Youtang would never tolerate it. I would treat them so politely. I never thought
They didn't know what to expect and how dared to do such a heinous thing.
For Zhu Youtang, the more someone he trusted did such a thing, the more intolerable he was. He stroked the desk and said in a high voice: "Come here, call Xiao Jing and Guo Yong.
.”
Immediately, no one in the Zhengxin Hall spoke. Zhu Youtang was obviously a little angry. He never thought that this public case would involve such a big deal. Naturally, he was not in the mood to joke with Liu Chengfeng at this time. His fingers were like
As before when he was nervous, he slowly knocked on the imperial desk, his eyes opened and closed, sometimes wide open, his deep eyes stared into the void, exuding an intimidating majesty, sometimes they narrowed slightly, and the slightly narrowed eyes
There seemed to be a faint light flashing in his eyes.
Liu Chengfeng's eyes fell on the pen holder on the imperial desk, and he couldn't help but wonder in his mind that this holder looked like jade but not jade, but he didn't know what material it was made of. Presumably, this thing was also an ancient object, but it was just that it was difficult to handle
How much can it be sold for on the market?
Liu Chengfeng's random thoughts did not last long, Xiao Jing and Guo Yong came. Xiao Jing was still stumbling, with a bit of fatigue on his face, but his cough was much better. When he came in, he said to Zhu Youtang
Li, he knelt and did not move.
As for Guo Yong, when he entered the palace, he took a deep look at Liu Chengfeng, then prostrated himself on the ground and said, "Your Majesty has summoned your servants. I don't know what orders you have."
Zhu Youtang said calmly: "Stand up."
Xiao Jing and Guo Yong stood up, and Zhu Youtang said: "Liu Chengfeng, can we start?"
Liu Chengfeng stood up, his eyes fell on Xiao Jing, smiled slightly, and said: "Eunuch Xiao..."
Xiao Jing's face was dull, and he didn't see any expression. It seemed that the things in front of him and the people in front of him had nothing to do with him. He replied lightly: "What do Liu Baihu want to say?"
Liu Chengfeng said: "Eunuch Xiao still remembers Li Shun's case."
Xiao Jing just nodded lightly.
Liu Chengfeng continued: "Isn't this Li Shun the Supervisor of Ceremonies? It is said that he has always been at the mercy of Eunuch Xiao, right?"
Xiao Jing's tone was calm: "Li Shun is indeed the handyman of the Za family. Normally, he would be asked to do some chores. This Li Shun is usually quite well-behaved."
Liu Chengfeng smiled slightly: "So Eunuch Xiao gave him instructions..."
Xiao Jing calmly interrupted Liu Chengfeng and said, "Liu Baihu, don't you want to spit on others?"
Liu Chengfeng's eyes widened and he said: "Hey, what are you talking about? I haven't even said what you ordered him to do, and you're saying that I'm slanderous. Eunuch Xiao, are you so prejudiced against Mr. Liu, or just...
Are you looking down on me like this?"
Look down on? A month ago, with Xiao Jing's identity, he really looked down on a Jinyiwei Baihu, even though he had taken over Fireworks Alley and attacked Dongchang. Such a person, in Xiao Jing's heart,
He is just a fool and a reckless man, so there is nothing to worry about. But now, if it is said that Xiao Jing looks down on Liu Chengfeng, it is pure slander.
This person is very good at getting things done. He may seem reckless, but in fact he is very careful. If you are not careful, you may fall into his trap.
Xiao Jing closed his eyes and said no more. No matter how much he said at this time, it was of no use. This Liu Chengfeng was ordered to handle the case, and he and he had always had a feud. And Liu Chengfeng was a person who was determined to retaliate.
superior……
In addition, although what Liu Chengfeng provided was not irrefutable evidence, it was not completely unreasonable. Although Li Shun was just a handyman in the palace, he was still a member of the Supervisor of Ceremonies and could not be dispatched by anyone. He was the biggest suspect.
Of course it is yourself.
Liu Chengfeng said calmly: "Eunuch Xiao, do you have nothing to say?"
Xiao Jing just moved his withered lips and whispered softly: "The clown is just a one-time success."
Liu Chengfeng heard that this old man was scolding him. And he was scolding him very fiercely. This meant that he was a villain and could not live up to his dignity, so he would only take the opportunity to punish him.
But Xiao Jing's expression was very strange, as if Liu Chengfeng could not do any real harm to him, this old eunuch actually showed a calm aura at this time.
Liu Chengfeng did not pursue the matter with him, but smiled slightly: "Unexpectedly, Eunuch Xiao has nothing to say, so let Liu Chengfeng speak. The person behind this matter is not Eunuch Xiao..."
Xiao Jing was stunned for a moment, his eyes slightly opened, and he looked at Liu Chengfeng in confusion.
Liu Chengfeng's eyes finally fell on Guo Yong. He pointed at Guo Yong and said, "Eunuch Guo, what do you have to say?"
Just now when Liu Chengfeng and Xiao Jing were at war, a hint of joy flashed across Guo Yong's eyes, but when Liu Chengfeng suddenly attacked him, he was stunned for a moment, and the muscles on his face suddenly stiffened, and then he said: "Liu Chengfeng suddenly attacked him.
Baihu, what do you mean?"
Liu Chengfeng chuckled: "It doesn't mean anything. Right and wrong are all matters of public opinion. Now that things have happened, does Eunuch Guo still want to deny it?"
Guo Yong said angrily: "Liu Chengfeng, don't stop spewing blood. That Li Shun belongs to Eunuch Xiao. What does it have to do with the Za family? Furthermore, why would the Za family ask people to spread rumors? The Za family has no enmity or enmity against you.
When you slander the Zajia family like this, do you think the Zajia family is easy to bully?"
He was obviously extremely angry, his eyes could not help but turn red, and he looked like he was going to fight for his life.
"Bastard!" Zhu Youtang, who had been silent for a long time, slapped the case fiercely and shouted angrily: "Guo Yong, let Liu Chengfeng finish his words first, I will make my own decision."
Guo Yong was startled by the sound of slapping the table, a trace of panic flashed across his old face, and then he quickly knelt down on the ground and hissed: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty... I have served you for so many years, how could Your Majesty not know what a slave is?"
Temperament, how dare you slander the harem? Your Majesty, please make the decision for this slave. What Liu Chengfeng said are all false words. He... He wants to put this slave to death. He is deceiving the public with his evil words.
Servant...servant..."
Zhu Youtang shouted: "I said, now is not the time for you to talk too much, shut up immediately and listen to Liu Chengfeng first."
"Yes...yes..." Guo Yong glanced at Liu Chengfeng angrily, his face already as pale as paper.
Xiao Jing obviously didn't expect this turn of events. He couldn't help but take a deep look at Guo Yong. In normal times, Guo Yong always looked after him, and he didn't seem to have much courage. How could he suddenly be related to this incident?
.
Originally, according to Xiao Jing's assumption, the initiator of this incident may or may not be Prince Ning, but Prince Ning has already returned to Nanchang Mansion. If Liu Chengfeng really had evidence, he should have kept Prince Ning.
Moreover... Liu Chengfeng suddenly attacked him just now. Xiao Jing originally expected that Liu Chengfeng wanted to take the opportunity to take revenge. However, with Xiao Jing's skills, even if Liu Chengfeng wanted to frame him, he might not be able to escape. However,
Unexpectedly, things took a 180-degree turn, and in the end Liu Chengfeng's target was Guo Yong.
There was still no expression on Xiao Jing's face. The face full of wrinkles and age spots was as still as water, as if everything had become a passing cloud before his eyes. As for how Liu Chengfeng identified Guo Yong, who was Guo Yong?
He is not the main culprit behind this incident and has nothing to do with Xiao Jing.
