When Empress Changsun heard the news about the emperor's accident, she fainted several times.
When she heard Li Xiaogong say that the murderer was Zhao Chen, Empress Changsun fainted.
After a long time, Queen Changsun woke up quietly.
With the support of the palace servants, I met Li Xiaogong at the entrance of Li Zheng Palace.
"Queen, my condolences." Seeing Empress Changsun come out, Li Xiaogong hurriedly said to Empress Changsun.
During the time when the queen fainted, Li Xiaogong had been waiting here.
Although it was said that an order had been issued, officials from various places were asked to issue an order asking Zhao Chen to return to Chang'an.
But the final decision still had to be made by Queen Changsun.
She is both a queen and Zhao Chen's mother, and there is no one more suitable than her.
"Did that kid Zhao Chen really do it?"
"How could he do such a thing?" Queen Changsun's face was filled with sadness.
And with a hint of disbelief.
Obviously she didn't really believe the news.
Li Xiaogong nodded slowly, and then said: "Everyone does not believe that His Highness the King of Han can do such a thing, so we decided to ask His Highness the King of Han to come back to prove his innocence."
"I am here because I hope that the empress can sit in the court and discuss matters regarding the new emperor."
"There is no need to sit in charge of the court. I believe that King Hejian will not just watch the Tang Dynasty decline."
"With the King of Hejian here, I can rest assured."
"As for the matter of the new emperor, let's wait until His Majesty's dragon body returns to Chang'an first." Empress Changsun said to Li Xiaogong.
Li Xiaogong heard what Queen Changsun meant.
She still didn't want to identify Zhao Chen as the murderer of the emperor at this time.
So I thought of using this time to find evidence to exonerate Zhao Chen.
Li Xiaogong nodded, and then said: "Then I will do it according to the wishes of the empress. Until the new emperor is established, I will not inform the people about your majesty's affairs for the time being."
"Go ahead, King Hejian has worked hard." Queen Changsun nodded, and then went back to Li Zheng Palace with the support of the palace attendants.
…
Cheng Yaojin was dismissed from his post, and the Beiya Forbidden Army Tiger Talisman in his hand was handed over to Li Jing.
Li Jing was also strange.
I was living my retirement life at Chang'an Military Academy in a good way, but why was I inexplicably assigned to such an errand?
I went to Beiya Forbidden Army for inspection, but nothing happened.
This made Li Jing feel even more strange.
Until Li Jing found out about the emperor.
Li Jing himself felt a little confused.
Fortunately, Zhao Chen burned the emperor to death.
This is no joke!
Li Jing believed that Zhao Chen would never do such a thing.
But right now, there seems to be nothing that can prove it to Zhao Chen.
Li Jing was worried, but there was nothing he could do.
I went to Cheng Yaojin's house and saw Cheng Yaojin lying on a soft cushion, drinking wine with a look of enjoyment.
"Old guy, what time is it now, why are you still drinking?" Li Jing was a little angry.
Seeing Cheng Yaojin's appearance, he couldn't help but scold him.
Cheng Yaojin respected Li Jing, so when he saw Li Jing coming over, he quickly got up from the soft cushion.
"Mr. Wei, why are you still here?" Cheng Yaojin took Li Jing and sat down beside him.
After letting someone serve tea, he dismissed all the servants around him.
"Don't you know why I came to you?"
"How dare you drink with that Jiang Siye? Are you familiar with him?"
"You drank like this, and now you have even been dismissed from the position of General of the Beiya Imperial Army?" Li Jing became angry as he spoke.
It was also because of the matter between the emperor and Zhao Chen.
Even if he doesn't believe it himself, everyone is saying that now. Even if he doesn't believe it, he doesn't want to mention how uncomfortable he is.
Something happened to the emperor, and he was related to Zhao Chen.
"Is Duke Wei worried about His Majesty's affairs?"
"Does Duke Wei think that Mr. Zhao will hurt His Majesty, or that Mr. Zhao cannot protect His Majesty?" Cheng Yaojin and Li Jing said.
Li Jing was a little confused by Cheng Yaojin's words.
"What do you mean?" Li Jing was stunned.
"With Zhao Boy's ability, a fire can burn His Majesty to death. Besides, Zhao Boy set the fire himself?"
"Although Mr. Zhao doesn't have much talent on weekdays, he still knows his priorities clearly without any twists and turns."
"In other words, Duke Wei would rather believe in a so-called governor he has never met than his own son-in-law?" Cheng Yaojin and Li Jing said.
Of course it's not that Li Jing doesn't believe Zhao Chen.
It's just that the impact of this matter is too great and it has harmed the emperor. How can he, Li Jing, not be anxious?
Who would be like Cheng Yaojin and still think about drinking...
No, something happened to the emperor, why does this guy Cheng Yaojin still look so indifferent?
Li Jing suddenly discovered.
When they talked about the emperor's accident, Cheng Yaojin didn't seem sad at all.
This is completely unreasonable.
Cheng Yaojin cared about the emperor very much. If something happened to the emperor, Cheng Yaojin would be the first to cause trouble.
Why are you still thinking about drinking here?
Could it be...
"Lao Cheng, are you hiding something from me?"
"Something happened to your Majesty, you are so calm and you still want to drink?" Li Jing stared at Cheng Yaojin and asked him.
Cheng Yaojin felt a little guilty when he saw Li Jing staring at him, and his eyes drifted away.
"Actually, I'm not sure what your Majesty's situation is."
"But Mr. Zhao later sent me a letter, saying that if news of the emperor's death came out in the future, everything would be their plan."
"Let me just do my own thing. The best thing is to have someone take away the tiger talisman of the Bei Ya Forbidden Army."
"Hey, by the way, I almost forgot something important."
"Zhao Xiaozi said that there is a high probability that the Tiger Talisman of the Bei Ya Forbidden Army will fall into your hands, Duke Wei, but the one you took is fake."
"Here, I give you this tiger charm. You must keep it."
"Zhao Chen said that he will use it one day!" Cheng Yaojin took out a tiger charm from his arms.
Li Jing's eyes widened.
He took out the tiger talisman he had just obtained from his body, compared it, and found that there was almost no difference between the two.
"What's going on?" Li Jing was confused.
Why is there a fake tiger charm?
He also said that it was Zhao Chen who told him, what is Zhao Chen going to do?
"Officials in Qizhou want to murder Your Majesty, and there are people in Chang'an who are hiding behind the scenes and trying to take control of the court. Zhao Xiaozi gave me a fake tiger charm to make the people behind the scenes think that he can handle everything properly, and also make him relax his vigilance."
"Actually, I hid the real tiger talisman early in the morning. Jiang Siye secretly replaced my tiger talisman before, and what he got was just a fake."
"Mr. Wei, please don't confuse the real tiger talisman."
"They think what you are holding is fake and what they are holding is real. They will only find out when the two pieces of tiger match up and become one."
"That is to say, we will see the outcome when they finally take action."
"Mr. Wei, be sure to keep it safe," Cheng Yaojin and Li Jing warned.
Li Jing felt that he must have stayed at Chang'an Military Academy for too long and no longer knew the outside world.
That's why I'm so confused.
But he still nodded. This chapter has been completed!
