Everyone looked at the sound and saw a plump, dark-skinned black woman with thick and outward lips. She was dressed in fine silk and satin. She was surrounded by palace people and walked over. Hundreds of Beifu sergeants came over.
It was Liu Yu's old brothers who were guarding in front of Liangyi Palace. He Wuji was on the left and Xiang Jing was on the right, holding halberds. When everyone saw Liu Yu like this, they were stunned at first, and then almost wanted to
He laughed. If it weren't for his duties, he would have already said hello to Liu Yu.
This rich black aunt is none other than Li Linrong, the current Queen Mother and the biological mother of Emperor Xiaowu Sima Yao. Her face is stained with tears and her eyes are red. To her left, Sima Daozi is wearing an official robe, holding his hand.
On his left hand, and on his right, lying on a shoulder carriage, is a young man of about twenty years old. He is sickly and pale. He is huddled in the quilt, his eyes are distracted, and his appearance is somewhat similar to Sima
Yao, and next to the shoulder carriage, stood a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy in fine clothes. He was very similar to the man on the bed. There was a black mole the size of a mung bean on his forehead, which looked like a
Tianyan, the two of them are much paler than Li Lingrong. They are Sima Yao's two sons, Prince Sima Dezong, and Sima Dewen, the second son of King Langya.
When everyone saw the royal family coming out, they knelt down quickly. Liu Yu also knelt down, put down the sword in his hand, and shouted: "I have seen the Queen Mother, Her Royal Highness the Crown Prince, King Kuaiji, and King Langya."
Queen Mother Li sighed softly and raised her hands: "Everyone, please stand down." All the people kneeling on the ground stood up and sheathed their swords. The tense atmosphere just now suddenly relaxed a lot.
Empress Dowager Li looked around with a look of sadness on her face: "Unfortunately for the Jin Dynasty, a disaster came from heaven. The late emperor passed away in Liangyi Palace two hours ago. The Ai family has already visited his body, and the imperial doctors have also been
After inspection and preliminary judgment, the late emperor died by holding his breath in his sleep. It was destiny. There is no trace of poisoning or assassination. Liu Sima, you should be on duty in Liangyi Hall today, why are you here now?
"
Liu Yu said calmly: "While I was on duty in my humble position, I discovered clues that the mafia intended to assassinate the emperor, so I rushed to investigate the case, but I didn't expect that His Majesty would go like this."
Queen Mother Li said solemnly: "You said the mafia harmed His Majesty? How is this possible? The only people in the palace at that time were Concubine Zhang and some maids. According to their accounts, His Majesty was in a good mood tonight and invited Concubine Zhang to enjoy the moon together.
Then he summoned Concubine Zhang to sleep with him, but no assassins entered the room, so how could there be a mafia conspiracy?"
Liu Yu took out the token from his arms and handed it to Queen Mother Li: "The Mafia Zhuque kidnapped Master Zhi Miaoyin and used it to coerce Bizhi to go to Jianjing Temple. Bizhi first wanted to save people, but secondly
I came here to find out the mafia's intentions, so I arranged to stay behind and went to Jianjing Temple."
Queen Mother Li nodded: "About these, Lieutenant He and the others have just told the Ai family. Where is Miaoyin now?"
Liu Yu's mind turned and he felt that if he wanted to tell Miaoyin that she was an agile spy, there would be a lot of unexpected troubles, and she might even be interrogated. Thinking of this, Liu Yu said: "Yes.
I have successfully rescued Master Miaoyinzhi. She is a woman and has difficulty moving. I left her in Jianjing Temple. Although I did not find the Mafia Suzaku in Jianjing Temple, I heard the sound of the death knell in the palace.
, so he hurried back."
Next to Sima Daozi, stood a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy, it was Sima Yuanxian. His eyes were shining, staring at Liu Yu, and suddenly said: "Liu Sima, you said you ran back from Jianjing Temple
Yes, may I ask when you entered the city, where you entered the city, and which gate of the palace city you entered through? You said you didn't go back until you heard the sound of the death knell, so it stands to reason that the first time you should go back to the Liangyi Palace is to check His Majesty's safety.
, why did you come here to the Zhongshu Province? Also, you were fully armed and armored when you left, why are you only wearing single clothes now? "
Liu Yu secretly sighed in his heart. He had long heard that although Sima Daozi was mediocre and incompetent, his son was really powerful. He was known as a child prodigy at a young age. Liu Muzhi also reminded him that he must not take it lightly. Sure enough,
, this guy just opens his mouth and moves to attack his own vital points.
But Liu Yu was already prepared. He looked at Sima Yuanxian and said calmly: "I did not come in through the city gate. In order to rush for time, I entered the imperial city through the secret passage in Jianjing Temple. The exit of this secret passage is exactly
It’s from Zhongshu Province.”
Queen Mother Li's expression changed: "What, there is a secret passage leading directly to the palace and to Jianjing Temple?"
Sima Daozi said coldly: "Liu Yu, how do you know these secret passages? This seems to be beyond the scope of your responsibilities as a Su Wei Army Sima."
Liu Yu sighed: "That's because Master Zhi Miaoyin knew about this secret passage. These secret passages were originally dug by the emperors of the Jin Dynasty in order to save their lives and escape. There happened to be one leading to Jianjing Temple, which Master Zhi once walked through.
Several times, so today, I was asked to return to the palace through the secret passage."
Queen Mother Li frowned: "There are so many secret passages in the palace. What if thieves take advantage of them and enter the palace to cause trouble? General Sima, do you know these secret passages?"
Sima Shangzhi shook his head: "These are the secrets of the emperors of the Jin Dynasty in the past. The generals who are in charge of the troops in the palace must not know. Our duty is only to guard the palace, not to know the secrets of the emperor's escape."
Dao, as for the sneak attack by the thieves, we can only discover and destroy them in the palace, and we cannot rule out the possibility that thieves will enter through the secret passage."
Empress Dowager Li sighed: "Liu Sima, so to speak, you came to Zhongshu Province to take a shortcut to rush for time, so why don't you come directly to Liangyi Palace instead of participating in the disputes here?"
Liu Yulang said: "Because His Majesty has already passed away, there is little point in going to Liangyi Hall again. At least we have to wait until the imperial doctors find out the cause of His Majesty's death. However, the matter behind His Majesty's death is nothing more than the choice of the crown prince. If someone has a conspiracy,
, if you want to correct the imperial edict and establish someone else, you will definitely come to Zhongshu Province, so I feel obligated to wait here to prevent anyone from trying to break in. Sure enough, as soon as I came, I saw Wang Shangshu and
General Sima was ready to force his way in, and he really wasn't too late."
Wang Guobao gritted his teeth and said, "Liu Yu, don't be so slanderous. We are following the Queen Mother's order and came here to look for the late emperor's edict. We are not pretending to do so!"
