Qin Wenzheng stayed until only he and the emperor were left in the imperial study. The emperor asked, "What do you think about today's incident?"
Qin Wenzheng was silent for a moment, then asked in a low voice, "The emperor is referring to King Lu?"
The emperor glanced at him, "Don't play dumb, to be honest, I forgive you for your innocence."
"I dare not hide anything. In fact, I have been pressing one thing in my heart, and I dare not say it." Qin Wenzheng knelt down suddenly, with a low tone and an unprecedented solemnity.
The emperor frowned, "Get up, you and Zhen are the only ones in the imperial study, just speak up if you have something to say."
Qin Wenzheng stood up, took a deep breath, and walked to the emperor's side.
Although there are only the two of them in the imperial study room, Qin Wenzheng lowered his voice to prevent the partition wall from hearing, "Your Majesty, there is indeed a reason why King Lu targeted Shao Qingyuan and his wife. Shao Qingyuan and his wife discovered his secret, and he wanted to kill someone." Silence."
The emperor was taken aback, "What secret?"
"The two of them saw with their own eyes that the water bandit leader who was wanted in the capital last year had close contacts with King Lu."
The emperor looked up suddenly in shock, and looked at him with an incredulous expression, "What did you say?"
Qin Wenzheng said in a low voice, "I dare not lie to the emperor. It is true that they told me about this matter. It's just that the matter is so important that I dare not act rashly before investigating. However, after the king of Lu knew that their husband and wife had seen it, he told him about it. The leader of the water bandit has been transferred, and I have been secretly looking for it for the past few days, but so far there is no clue."
The emperor looked furious, and slapped the table, "You didn't tell me about such a big thing."
"The emperor forgives the crime." Qin Wenzheng knelt down immediately, "After all, there is no evidence. I dare not sue the emperor to worry the emperor. Moreover, the minister is not sure whether Shao Qingyuan and his wife really saw it. After all, before Lu The king and the Marquis of Huaiyin had a personal grievance, and I was worried that they would exaggerate because of some personal grievances. I wanted to investigate the matter in private, so as not to wrong the loyal minister. But I didn't expect such a thing to happen today. Keep it secret, I'm afraid it will"
This matter was just told by Shao Qingyuan on the way to the palace.
In fact, along the way, Qin Wenzheng originally wanted to ask where those weapons went. After hearing this, however, his attention shifted.
The few of them discussed it, and brought forward the date of discovering the water bandit leader, and then took this opportunity to tell the emperor.
Although there is no evidence, King Lu's actions today are enough to make the emperor suspicious, and it is a good time to speak out.
The emperor remained silent for a long while, his expression unpredictable.
King Lu colluded with the water bandit leader? King Lu wants to kill Shao Qingyuan and Gu Yundong?
King Lu, King Lu
The emperor suddenly remembered the reason why he wanted the leader of the water bandits. At first, it was because the water bandits wanted to kill and rob merchant ships, but he did not expect that they would be wiped out instead. And the news that came out at that time was that the gang of water bandits was going to attack the nobles on the merchant ship.
Coincidentally, Gu Yundong and Shao Qingyuan were on that boat.
So, the water bandits colluded with King Lu, and he attacked them, so King Lu wanted to kill them?
Why? King Lu and Shao Qingyuan should have had no contact with each other before.
The emperor thought about what Gu Yundong cried just now, is it really because the husband and wife have given him too much credit?
Some things really can't be thought deeply about, and the doubts in my heart will become bigger and bigger when I think about it. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
