Chapter 339 Counterattack

Si Yiluo paused, and Si Hai judged that the person being scolded inside was Wei Heyan. He hurriedly pushed open the study door, lowered his head, walked inside, knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, Sir Si has brought you here."

Emperor Yao took a breath and said, "Let her come in."

Si Hai saw the tea stem hanging from the hat of his governor, with tea dripping down.

He looked away with difficulty and went out, mouthing to Si Yiluo that Wei Heyan was being punished and asked her to be careful.

Si Yiluo entered the inner room and knelt down to worship.

"no!"

Emperor Yao's tone was impatient. From the corner of his eye, Si Yiluo saw Wei Heyan kneeling with his head down. She didn't know what happened. She couldn't ask until Emperor Yao spoke.

Emperor Yao, who was sitting on the upper hand, took out a breath and asked: "Si Qing is in charge of the intelligence and informants of the entire Zhou Dynasty. Does Si Qing know about what happened in Prince Yu's Mansion?"

Si Yiluo's heart skipped a beat, and he glanced at Wei Heyan again, frowning.

Zhou Yu has been imprisoned, how can he still be a monster?

Emperor Yao, who was also implicated, lost his temper and angered Wei Heyan...

After thinking about it carefully, she really didn't know what happened in Prince Yu's Mansion. If she insisted that she knew, the next sentence would betray her. But if she directly said that she didn't know, Emperor Yao would probably be even more angry.

Both advance and retreat are pitfalls.

"Back to the emperor, the morning court has ended today. I have just walked to the Yamen, and I haven't had time to check the news."

Emperor Yao was silent for a moment and asked: "I remember that when you were at Jingshan Temple, you brought Lao Wu's entourage back to the imperial prison. How come it has been so many days and nothing has been reported after the trial?"

Wei Heyan raised his eyes and glanced at her, his thin lips pursed. In front of Emperor Yao, he couldn't convey any news to her. He only glanced at her and looked away again.

The confession was in her arms. Si Yiluo hesitated and replied: "Your Majesty, forgive me. Before I entered the palace, my subordinates just put the confession on my desk. I didn't check it yet, so I didn't dare."

Bring it into the palace, and I will order someone to go back and get it."

"Forget it, there's no hurry."

Emperor Yao is not attached to the confession, so it seems that it is not a matter of confession.

"Prince Yu has been poisoned." Emperor Yao looked at her, with a deep meaning in his calm tone, "The poison lasted all night last night, and he reported to me this morning and asked the imperial doctor."

"The murder of the prince is such a serious matter. My right-hand men, He Yan and Si Qing, you two have not received any news until now! Even a noble prince can be poisoned quietly, but what about me? I can still do it in the future.

Want to have a peaceful sleep?"

Si Yiluo finally figured out the crux of the problem. Emperor Yao was bitten by a snake once and was afraid of ropes for ten years. The incident of Shu Meiren drugging him left a shadow on him.

Normally, the news about such a big matter would definitely reach her and Wei Heyan, but neither of them knew about it, which means Emperor Yao had someone block the news.

Why are you blocking the news... Just to test her and Wei Heyan!

If the two of them could answer truthfully and not try to deceive him, he would be able to rest assured that at least they were both reliable.

Si Yiluo was frightened for a while, and cold sweat suddenly broke out. She felt that the confession in her arms was extremely hot. If she had not been clear-headed just now and took out the confession, now her head would be tied up.

A false accusation.

It is a trivial matter that she cannot keep her official uniform. I am afraid that there will be no place for her in the Zhou Dynasty.

"I have just punished Lao Wu to shut up and think about his mistakes, but Lao Wu has been poisoned. This matter must be investigated clearly!" Emperor Yao said angrily, "No matter how unsatisfactory Lao Wu is, he is still my prince. I want to see who is behind him.

Who can't tolerate him so much!"

Si Yiluo braced himself and said yes.

"I'll go check it out personally."

Emperor Yao hummed and said, "Everyone, get up."

Wei Heyan had been kneeling for a long time. When he got up, he staggered and bumped into Si Yiluo. She easily picked him up.

"You two are loyal to me, and I naturally believe in you. I am already old, and it is time to consider the candidate for the heir apparent. You two are my eyes, and you have to look and inspect the princes for me.

conduct."

"The prince is related to the common people, so we cannot be careless. Starting from today, records of the princes' words and deeds will be sent to the palace every day, and I will personally check them."

The two of them responded in unison.

Emperor Yao rewarded them with a bunch of more things, and then waved the two of them to leave.

Give him a slap and a sweet date.

Si Yiluo and Wei Heyan looked at each other and saw ridicule in each other's eyes.

"Master Si, do you want to leave the palace? I will give you a ride."

Outside the imperial study room, the imperial guards and serving chamberlains stood on both sides.

"Don't dare bother the governor."

"Don't bother me, Sir Si."

Si Yiluo stepped aside and gave way, and the two of them walked out side by side. When they were far away, Wei Heyan said, "Please Sir Si, please look into this case!"

He emphasized the words "check it carefully". Based on Si Yiluo's understanding of him, he suspected that Zhou Yu's poisoning was a trick he directed and performed himself.

Learn from Zhou Rong and design an assassination to make others sympathize.

With this assassination, Zhou Rong did win back the battle in front of Emperor Yao. However, there were too many mistakes in this assassination and it was difficult to control people's hearts. This gave Si Yiluo the opportunity to find out the truth.

If Zhou Yu's poison was really directed and acted by himself, he might be the only one to complete the entire process, making it difficult to find out.

Si Yiluo knew that he would help secretly. After all, he was not a fool and could not tolerate his schemes.

The feeling of a capsized boat in the gutter is unpleasant.

"I will live up to the emperor's trust."

Without him having to explain, Si Yiluo also wanted to kill Zhou Yu. It was so disgusting.

If there was no such thing as him being poisoned, Si Yiluo could never recover with the confession in his arms. But he was poisoned, and it was very likely that he was poisoned by someone else, so her confession was also possible.

It was someone else who put the blame on him. Not only would it have no effect, but it would also help him establish a victim position in front of Emperor Yao.

Let Emperor Yao think that she wants to step on her, thus creating a crisis of trust in her.

Wei Heyan arrived at the corner and did not go any further. Si Yiluo breathed a long sigh of relief. When he stepped out of the palace gate, it was almost noon.

Since this matter was directed and acted by Zhou Yu, it would not affect the investigation anytime she came to the door. Song Yehe was brave and careful, so he was the perfect fit. She went to the Yamen and told him to hand over the case to him, and she returned home.

Have lunch.

"Aluo, you're back!"

Shen Moran waited eagerly for her all morning, waiting so hard that he finally got her back.

Si Yiluo was surprised that she was actually at the house.

"What's wrong? Are you in a bad mood? Er Qiao, go and serve tea to your adults! Then go to the kitchen and ask when dinner will be served!"

After Er Qiao served tea, she pushed him away, and Si Yiluo took out the things in his arms and handed them to her.

"Let's see."

"What is this?"

Shen Moran took it and looked at it carefully, and Si Yiluo added: "I just came out of the palace."

Ordinary people can't withstand the torture in the imperial edicts and prisons, and they don't have to be punished. Qixi can handle almost all of them, but he was clever and outspoken, so he suffered some hardships.

Shen Moran read them one by one, with deep thought on his face.

The friend brought these things into the palace but did not beat Zhou Yu to death, which shows that things have changed.

"what happened?"

Si Yiluo took a sip of tea and said, "Zhou Yu has begun to fight back, and I feel that he will be more difficult to deal with in the future. You must be prepared in advance."
