cold three feet

Su Han hastily changed into court clothes and went into the palace. He thought that the ministers who had a good relationship with Chen Ying before would come to intercede. It must be a mess in the palace. Unexpectedly, Qi Zuo was enjoying the singing and dancing leisurely, while the palace There are no ministers begging for mercy, there are only a few dancing girls shaking their heads, maybe this is the really indifferent court.

When Qi Zuo saw Su Han, he hurriedly said: "General Zhou, come and see that this is the song and dance I personally selected for tonight's dinner, you can also help me to see how they dance, is it okay?"

The dancers were all covered with the scent of rouge and gouache, and Su Han had a sensitive nose, and before he opened his mouth to answer Qi Zuo, he sneezed deafeningly.

Seeing Su Han's attitude, Qi Zuo lost interest, so he pushed the dancers away. He suddenly thought of the divination that Su Han said, thinking that Su Han came here for the divination that Daoist Yan was going to perform tonight , and ignored the sneeze that was not interesting to Su Han just now.His eyes lit up and he asked: "General Zhou came here for the divination that Daoist Yan is going to perform tonight. If there is anything you need to prepare, just ask, and I will send someone to do it."

Su Han was still not used to the irritating scent just now, he coughed dryly again, and then said: "Your Majesty, I came here for the matter of Commander Chen. I heard that the warden found out Lu Mingting's accomplice last night, and he is still there. The Chen family found the family card of the Lu Mansion. Although there are all the witnesses and material evidence, this matter is too coincidental. During the period when Commander Chen was in charge of the Yulin Army, he was loyal to His Majesty. Presumably His Majesty also knows the character of Commander Chen. He would never do it. For such an outrageous act, I implore Your Majesty to investigate thoroughly before convicting Commander Chen."

Su Han's words actually implied a sense of guilt. He was not such a calm and inconsiderate person, but this matter was really urgent. Although he didn't like Chen Ying before, it was because of Chen Ying and Zhou Ziyan is too brotherly, but now his relationship with Zhou Ziyan is definitely different from the past, counting, Chen Ying can be regarded as his half brother.Furthermore, Su Han still admired Chen Ying a little bit, that's why he directly pleaded for Chen Ying in front of Qi Yu.

Qi Yu originally thought that Su Han was going to talk about the divination performance tonight, but how did he know that when Su Han opened his mouth, he was pleading for Chen Ying, and he dared to say it as if he was so stupid and loyal and traitorous.

Qi Zuo said slightly angrily: "The people from the prison department have reported this matter to me in detail last night. I felt that the evidence was convincing and there was nothing wrong with it, so I convicted Chen Ying and imprisoned her. Although Chen Ying committed a conspiracy Big crime, but I also think that he has been in charge of the Yulin Army for many years. He has rescued me from danger several times and three times, so he didn't implicate the Chen family. Loyal ministers, there is no distinction between good and evil. Zhou Han, you are so courageous. Don’t think that you are the Xuantie general appointed by the late emperor. I dare not touch you. I tell you that I will not move you now because you are in five Contributed to the Southern Xinjiang Incident years ago."

If it was someone else, he would probably be scared to death. After all, Qi Zuo is the emperor, so this kind of majesty is still somewhat.But Su Han was different, he was never afraid of anyone except Zhou Ziyan.

Su Han didn't change his expression, he didn't even bow his head to admit his mistake, and asked Qi Zuo: "Your Majesty, have you ever thought that if Chen Ying was wronged, how terrible is the person hiding behind Lu Mingting? , it is so easy to teach him to step down, if this matter is not investigated clearly, it will only give an opportunity to those who are interested."

Su Han's words reached Qi Zuo's heart. In fact, it's not that he never thought that Chen Ying might be wronged by others, but he hasn't figured out the stakes in it. Now, telling Su Han to tell the truth, he will inevitably feel uneasy.All in all, he is afraid of death for any fatuous emperor.

Qi Zuo restrained his anger just now, but he was not pleasant, and asked: "What does General Zhou think?"

It's disrespectful for Su Han to go against Long Yan just now, since there is room for maneuver, of course he has to seize the opportunity.Su Han lowered his eyebrows and said: "If there is such a person behind this matter, there should be nothing to ask from Lu Mingting, but that's okay, since he confessed an 'accomplice', it must have cost a lot of money." Kung fu framed Commander Chen. I heard that the family card of the Lu Mansion was found in Commander Chen's pillow. In such a private place, a family card can be secretly put in without being noticed by the Chen family. It must be by Commander Chen's side. people."

Qi Zuo asked suspiciously: "You mean this person is from the Chen family?"

Su Han shook his head with a smile and said, "I just said that this person might be someone close to Commander Chen, but he didn't say that he must be from the Chen family."

The more Su Han said, the more confused he became, but Qi Yu suddenly became interested, and even said: "According to what you said, if it is the people around Chen Ying, it is most likely to be the wives and concubines around him, the people who blow the wind around the pillow day and night. It is best to start. But as far as I know, Commander Chen has not married a wife, nor has he taken a concubine. If he is not a wife and concubine, then he can only be a relative of Chen Ying."

Su Han raised his brows slightly, then recovered his expression and said: "Your Majesty is indeed right, but it cannot be ruled out that someone entered the Chen Mansion secretly. Your Majesty thinks about an official's mansion, not to mention the big and small female relatives, it is just a small handyman." There are quite a few servants, and the status of servants is best to be misleading."

Qi Zuo nodded, motioning for Su Han to continue.But Su Han changed the subject and said, "How about this, doesn't Your Majesty want to see the divination skills of our Daoist Yan? I see this, let Daoist Yan do the math for His Majesty tonight, who is the person who framed Commander Chen?" Who. However, I have an unfeeling request."

When Qi Zuo heard about divination, his whole body became interested, and he hurriedly asked, "Say, tell, I promise you anything."

Qi Yu's nonsense is really cute, Su Han chuckled softly: "Dr. Yan's divination requires people and things related to the divination, and the closer you are, the more accurate it is. Therefore, I suggest that Commander Chen personally It's just that Commander Chen has become a felon of the imperial court. Whether he can survive is a question, and it is even more impossible to let him participate in the dinner party. This..."

Qi Zuo waved his hands and said with a smile: "What's the problem? I quietly sent someone to bring Chen Ying into the palace, and then let him hide behind the screen of the main hall during the dinner. This should be regarded as the presence of the person who was divined?"

Su Han nodded and said: "Forget it, of course it does. Then follow His Majesty's arrangement, and I will go back to the mansion and go with Taoist Yan to prepare to enter the palace for a banquet."

In fact, everything just now was a game of Su Han's. The words of disobedience to Longyan were the beginning of Su Han's plan. He first made Qi Zuo angry, turned his attention to himself, and then slapped Lu Mingting on the sidelines. There must be someone behind Lu Mingting. Manipulating in secret, although Qi Zhe is an emperor who does not do his job properly and has no interest in government affairs, he still has the logical thinking ability that a normal person should have. When Su Han said this, Qi Zhe inevitably had doubts about this matter in his heart, and in the end he used Qi Zhe's interest in it Divination made him take the initiative to let Chen Ying to the banquet.The next thing is naturally left to the one at home.

At nightfall, the vocal music of the banquet in the palace sounded, and the music was piled up layer by layer, as if tonight was destined to be a different night.

Su Han, who was dressed in a gorgeous embroidered brocade suit, and Zhou Ziyan, who was dressed in a coarse linen Taoist costume, sat down together. Looking at it this way, they seemed to be a good match.This was just what Chen Ying thought of behind the screen.

At the same time that Su Han went to the palace to face the saint in the morning, Zhou Ziyan asked Ting Lan to go quietly to the warden. Of course, this was all due to Master Yin Jiang Yiming Jiang of Shuntian Mansion.Su Han told Zhou Ziyan that he knew that Yin Jiang Yiming of Shuntian Mansion admired Zhou Ziyan very much, and that Jiang Yiming had a good relationship with the warden secretary in private, but with Jiang Yiming's favor, the prison secretary could meet him without telling the emperor. Chen Ying in prison.Zhou Ziyan could not come forward in this matter, so as not to expose the news that he was still in the capital, so someone close to Zhou Ziyan had to be sent, and this person Jiang Yiming also knew, so it could only be Qing Huan and Ting Lan.But Ting Lan still has to do big things, and naturally this heavy responsibility falls on Ting Lan.

As for what Ting Lan said when she met Chen Ying, one was of course telling him that Zhou Ziyan was back, and the other was about tonight's dinner.Zhou Ziyan will pretend to be a Taoist priest and perform a big divination show, asking Chen Ying to pay attention to the clues and find the person who put the family card in his pillow.

Previously, Su Han said in front of Qi Yu that he might be a servant of the Chen family, but now he is looking for someone from the court, and Su Han's plan is naturally among them.

After watching the singing and dancing, and having dinner, the finale is naturally the divination performance that Qi Zuo is most interested in.

No, I saw Zhou Ziyan got up from the table, walked to the center of the hall, brushed the dust in his hands, cupped his hands and said: "Poverty Yan San made a fool of His Majesty and all the adults."

Not to mention, it's well-organized and decent.

Qi Zuo asked full of expectation: "Does the Taoist know what I want you to occupy today?"

Zhou Ziyan smiled and said: "I know, what His Majesty wants the poor to count is whether the commander of the Imperial Forest Army is an accomplice of Mr. Lu."

Qi Zuo was surprised and said: "The Taoist priest really has a clever plan, and he can know what I think when he guesses."

Even if Qi Zuo didn't know that the person pretending to be a Taoist priest was Zhou Ziyan, but he also knew that Daoist Yan was a supernatural being under Su Han's sect, so what did Qi Zuo want to have at today's banquet?But at this time, the emperor didn't have enough brains, and he was surprised and praised Zhou Ziyan's ingenuity.Fortunately, there is business to do tonight, otherwise this would make Su Han, Zhou Ziyan, and Chen Ying behind the screen laugh out loud.

In order to prevent the other ministers at the banquet from discovering that Chen Ying, the court's repeat offender, was hiding behind the screen, Qi Zuo asked Xiao Rongzi to take out the Lu family card that he found in Chen Ying's pillow last night.

Zhou Ziyan took the family card, and touched the small palm-sized wooden card up and down carefully. While touching, he closed his eyes and muttered something in his mouth. After a while, he suddenly opened his eyes wide.Surprised Qi Zun alive, Qi Zun hurriedly asked: "What is the Daoist?"

Zhou Ziyan shook his head and said, "That's it, it's just that I don't know if I should talk about it or not?"

Qi Zun was very excited immediately. Of course, he wanted to know who the person who framed Chen Ying was only a small part of the reason for Qi Zun's excitement. What really excited him was that there are such amazing skills in the world. He can let go of his shoulders and rest assured that he will not be doing business. Anyway, someone can help him predict the future, so as long as he takes measures in advance, he can sit back and relax.

The emperor didn't know what to say.I only heard Qi Zuo say: "Don't hesitate to say what the Taoist priest says. I won't blame you for being right or wrong. If you don't dare to offend this person, don't worry, I will make the decision for you."

Zhou Ziyan nodded, pretending to be trembling, pointing at a person at the banquet, and said cautiously: "It was him, he was the one who put the family card of the Lu family in Commander Chen's pillow."

Before the person pointed at by Zhou Ziyan opened his mouth, Su Han said angrily: "Master Yan, I advise you to be careful with your words, do you know who this lord is? Shangshu."

At that time, the emperor Qi Yu and all the ministers in the main hall were all in disbelief, but Chen Ying behind the screen suddenly thought of something, and she shed silent tears, which dripped on his cold shackles, Through the cold iron, it has been corroding into his heart.
