The atmosphere in the Zhengxin Palace suddenly became tense. Even the few young eunuchs who were waiting on the side felt the atmosphere. They stooped lower one by one and did not dare to show their anger.
Guo Yong knelt on the ground, not daring to move at all, but his nervousness could still be seen from the slight ups and downs of his back.
Liu Chengfeng took a deep breath and said, "Guo Yong, do you still want to deny it?"
This matter is too big. Once he is convicted, not to mention Guo Yong, even the clan will be shattered into pieces. He slanders the queen and princess. This is actually not much different from treason. Guo Yong raised his face and said to
Liu Chengfeng sneered and said, "What are the Zajia denying? You, Liu Chengfeng, are slanderous!"
Liu Chengfeng chuckled and said slowly: "Since you don't give up, I will simply show you the evidence."
Liu Chengfeng paused and clearly saw the deep fear in Guo Yong's eyes, so much so that his shoulders couldn't help but twitch slightly.
Liu Chengfeng showed no expression, and he had no sympathy for Guo Yong, because although the emperor was a victim, how could he not be a victim? This man, in order to achieve his own goals, set up a series of tricks and did not hesitate to use himself as a pawn.
Even so, I'm afraid he would never imagine that he would eventually find him out.
Liu Chengfeng said expressionlessly: "Actually, it wasn't someone Liu that Eunuch Guo wanted to harm at that time. Eunuch Guo, is that what you said?"
Guo Yong sneered and said nothing.
Liu Chengfeng continued: "The person that Eunuch Guo wants to kill is not Liu Chengfeng, but Eunuch Xiao Jing and Xiao! You first ordered Li Shun to design a plan to lead me to the princess's bathroom, and you already expected that even if the princess found out, it would be absolutely impossible.
It’s impossible to make any noise.”
Liu Chengfeng then smiled bitterly at Zhu Youtang and said, "Your Majesty, I forgive you. I lied to Your Majesty a few days ago. In fact, Wei Chen did go to the princess's bathroom, but he just hid behind the screen. When Her Royal Highness took a shower, Wei Chen
I haven't seen it at all, let alone blasphemed Her Highness the Princess."
Zhu Youtang's face turned cold for a moment, but he didn't speak at this time. He just waited quietly for Liu Chengfeng to continue announcing his results.
Just listen to Liu Chengfeng continue: "Eunuch Guo expected that Her Highness the Princess would not say anything, so he timely spread the rumor that someone Liu was spying on the princess. The purpose was to force Liu Chengfeng into a corner. Of course, Eunuch Guo didn't want to
Let Liu Chengfeng die and then be quick. What he really wants is Xiao Jing and Eunuch Xiao. As the saying goes, a dog will jump over the wall when it is anxious. Liu Chengfeng, a living person who is forced to a dead end, will definitely do it.
I was thinking about who was setting him up, this person. In fact, according to Eunuch Guo's idea, it must be Eunuch Xiao, because only Xiao Jing had a feud with someone Liu, and Li Shun was also the supervisor of rites. Eunuch Guo just wanted Liu Cheng to
When Feng Gou jumped over the wall, he simply shook off all this matter. In the end, it bit Xiao Jing. This is a scandal in the palace after all. No matter who is involved in the matter, whether it is Liu Chengfeng or Eunuch Xiao, His Majesty will definitely cut off the mess quickly.
Please cover up this matter. It’s just that Eunuch Bingbi, who is in charge of the ceremony, has lost the trust of the emperor. Who will benefit the most? Eunuch Guo, do you want me to continue talking?"
Guo Yong had a look of horror on his face. His plan was carefully thought out and interlocked. It was obviously to deal with Liu Chengfeng, but in fact the real target was Xiao Jing. He thought his plan was foolproof, but who knew
How could Guo Yong not be shocked when Liu Chengfeng explained everything at this time?
At this time, he was not the only one, even Xiao Jing couldn't help but feel moved. If it was true as Liu Chengfeng said, Guo Yong's plan was too vicious. But it has to be said that Liu Chengfeng was used to spy on the princess first, and then the news was released.
If Liu Chengfeng jumps over the wall in a hurry, he will inevitably reveal all the causes and consequences. Sooner or later, the final result will be found on Xiao Jing. By then, even if Xiao Jing has great tricks, he may not be able to clear himself.
Xiao Jing's eyes fell lightly on Guo Yong. Guo Yong met Xiao Jing's eyes inadvertently, and his body trembled more and more. He mustered up the courage and said: "What's the use of saying so much? You
Is there any evidence that Li Shun was instigated by the Za family? If there is no evidence, it is slander."
Liu Chengfeng sighed and said, "You won't give up until you reach the Yellow River. Well, let me tell you a story today."
Liu Chengfeng walked back and forth in the palace unscrupulously and said slowly: "There is a eunuch named Li Shun. This Li Shun is from Hejian Mansion. He was poor since he was a child and had no choice but to enter the palace and become a eunuch. Li Shun is an honest man.
He had a low profile in the palace and did not even dare to speak loudly. In the fourth year of Hongzhi, this person was lucky enough to be recommended to study in the inner school of the palace. In the inner school, Li Shun studied very well.
He worked hard and wrote well, so he was naturally assigned to do odd jobs in the Supervisor of Ceremonies. As mentioned before, Li Shun was an honest man, extremely honest. Although he joined the Supervisor of Ceremonies, he remained unknown until that time.
One day, Li Shun fell ill and coughed up blood. He secretly asked someone to see him, but he learned that he was terminally ill. Hearing the news, Li Shun was shocked. He hid this matter because he
You know, any sick eunuch must be sent out of the Forbidden City, and leaving the Forbidden City is an extremely scary thing for people like him."
Liu Chengfeng paused for a moment before continuing: "But this matter was somehow found out by Guo Yong. Guo Yong sympathized with him and even gave him a lot of rare medicines. He also told him that his palace
Brothers from outside can be transferred to the warrior camp to listen to them, and their rise to the top is just a snap of the fingers. Li Shun was very grateful to Guo Yong, but one day, Guo Yong asked Li Shun to do something. That day was the queen's concubine.
On his birthday, Liu Chengfeng drank some wine. The reason why he chose Liu Chengfeng was, firstly, because Liu Chengfeng was young and strong, not old, so he was the most suitable candidate to frame him. On the other hand, Liu Chengfeng and Xiao Jing
The relationship between Eunuch Xiao and Eunuch Xiao was very tense. That day, when Li Shun saw Liu Chengfeng coming out of the dining hall, he trotted to Liu Chengfeng and told Liu Chengfeng that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince summoned him from the harem. Then he took Liu Chengfeng with him.
Feng, went all the way to the harem and the princess's bedroom, pointed to Her Highness the Princess's bathroom, and asked Liu Chengfeng to come in."
"Everyone must know what happened after that. Just as Guo Yong expected, Her Royal Highness the Princess did not report it. Instead, in order to cover up her shame, she had to cover up for Liu Chengfeng. Fortunately, Liu Chengfeng did not spy on Her Highness the Princess's... that
...That..." When Liu Chengfeng said this, he saw that Zhu Youtang's expression was very bad, and he didn't know how to describe it for a moment. But he understood that even if this matter could be covered up for a while, it could not be covered up for the rest of his life.
Once discovered, he will inevitably be guilty of deceiving the emperor again. It is better to say it out today. Anyway, there is already a ready-made scapegoat here for Zhu Youtang to vent. In the final analysis, he is innocent after all. And
Even if you bite yourself to death and don't see anything, the emperor is still unreasonable. You can't add guilt, right?
Liu Chengfeng coughed twice awkwardly and continued: "After that, Liu Chengfeng began to fight back. With His Majesty's permission, he captured Li Shun and took him out of the palace to torture him. Li Shun was grateful for Guo Yong's kindness.
, and he knew that he was bound to die. Not to mention that he was suffering from an incurable disease. In addition..." Liu Chengfeng looked at Guo Yong deeply, and then said: "He also has a brother in the warrior camp, who has now been promoted.
The position of a hundred households. Whether his brother will be prosperous or have nothing, it all depends on Li Shun's thoughts. Therefore, facing the torture, Li Shun stayed up all night. In the early morning of the next day, he found an inch-long bamboo strip.
Stabbing myself to death..."
After Liu Chengfeng finished speaking, he sighed and said: "Li Shun is dead, but the real behind-the-scenes instigator is still alive. He still has his own wishful thinking, hoping that Liu Chengfeng can avenge his private revenge after losing the clues, and take the opportunity to bring this person to justice."
The sewage was poured on the head of his enemy, Eunuch Xiao, so at this time he still thinks that he is the winner, and one day sooner or later, he will succeed Eunuch Xiao as the Chief of Ceremonies."
"It's just a pity that people are not as good as God. Liu is a doctor, and doctors can also be liars. After Li Shun committed suicide, I personally dissected Li Shun's body and found a lot of precious drug residues in his stomach.
Your Majesty and Eunuch Xiao, please think about it, how could an unknown little eunuch be able to take such precious medicinal materials? Either he stole this medicine, or the person behind the scenes gave it to him in order to win over him. Li Shun, this
I have investigated the man, and he is an honest man. Even if he wants to do this kind of thing, he may not have the courage. So the result can only be the latter, and I also found tea leaves in the residue of these drugs.
The residue, this kind of tea residue, I personally ordered someone to identify it and concluded that it is jasmine tea."
Liu Chengfeng smiled and continued: "Jasmine tea is difficult to find in our Ming Dynasty. It is said that it can only be brewed by natives in the mountains in some places in the south of the Yangtze River. Ordinary people are not used to drinking this kind of tea. Later,
Liu did some research and found that only Eunuch Guo Yongguo from Nanzhili in the palace liked to drink this kind of tea. For the sake of convenience, even the eunuch guarding Nanjing would order dozens of kilograms of tea to be transported into the palace by canal every year.
Guo Yong. Then, Liu began to suspect that he was in love with Guo Yong. In addition, Liu also discovered that Li Shun had a thumb-sized tumor in his body, which was the source of Li Shun's incurable disease."
Liu Chengfeng said this all at once, and he explained the cause and effect clearly as if telling a story. At this time, not only Zhu Youtang was moved, but even Xiao Jing could not help but admire Liu Chengfeng's carefulness.
, you can guess so many things from just this clue, I am afraid that not many people in the entire capital can do it.
Guo Yong was really afraid at this time. Although Liu Chengfeng did not provide any evidence, what Liu Chengfeng said was as if he had witnessed everything with his own eyes. A kind of fear from the heart had spread all over Guo Yong's body.
He was paralyzed on the ground, his lips were trembling, but he couldn't say a word.
Liu Chengfeng continued: "Since the target fell on Guo Yong, this matter was much easier to investigate. After that, I ordered people to go to Hejian Mansion to visit Li Shun's family, and then I found out that Li Shun's brother was in the warrior camp.
Your Majesty and Eunuch Xiao must know that the Warrior Camp is under the control of the Royal Horse Supervisor, and the eunuchs are in charge of the Royal Horse Supervisor. Anyone who wants to send people to the Warrior Camp without Guo Yong's permission can't even think about it.
But Li Shun's brother was directly promoted to Baihu in a short period of time, which is unprecedented. If Guo Yong didn't do it all, how could he be so fast?"
"So that day, Eunuch Guo Yong went out to deliver oral instructions to Liu Chengfeng. Eunuch Guo asked me how Li Shun's interrogation went, so I told him directly that Li Shun was dead. At that time, I was secretly observing Guo Yong.
The most suspicious thing about the change in his expression was that Guo Yong's face was very calm, as if everything was as he expected. But then, when Eunuch Guo noticed that I was paying attention to him, he became alert again and deliberately showed fear.
demeanor."
Liu Chengfeng smiled slightly and continued: "As of now, although Liu Chengfeng has no ironclad evidence, this matter must have been very clear. Eunuch Guo has a clever plan, but he did not expect that Mr. Liu is definitely not fuel-efficient.
Deng, let alone imagine that although Li Shun's body is dead, his body can still speak."
Having said this, Liu Chengfeng stared at Guo Yong and said, "Guo Yong, do you still want to deny it?"
