Chapter 445 Reason
Wang Jin knelt down.
"I beg your Majesty to make the decision for the Rongyang Marquis Mansion."
The emperor's eyes were filled with scarlet red, and his hands on the table were shaking slightly.
"Of course I will."
After saying that, the emperor took a deep breath, calmed down, looked at Qingyang Hou, the old monk and Zhou Huaishan with his eyes, and finally sat down slowly.
"What do you know about that year?"
Resource sharing is the shortcut to everything.
After going round and round, the day finally arrived.
The emperor never asked Zhou Huaishan's true identity, or even asked Ma Ning why he wanted to give him the jade pendant.
Just like Marquis Lide and the others trusted him without saying a word or asking a question.
And Zhou Huaishan was not prepared to explain.
Everything is so natural.
The first was Zhou Huaishan. The room was full of his own people, and he did not hide it, "Not everyone in the Rongyang Marquis Mansion was silenced back then."
Wang Jin trembled and looked towards Zhou Huaishan.
Zhou Huaishan pursed his lips at him, smiled, and then said to the emperor: "Zhou Huaishan's seventh son and Xiaoba are still alive."
This sentence was like a thunder, which directly stunned the emperor and exploded in his heart.
Twenty years!
It’s been twenty years!
He always thought that no one was left in the Rongyang Hou Mansion.
Now Zhou Huaishan himself told him that Xiaoqi and Xiaoba are still alive?
I don't know how tears came to my eyes. By the time the emperor reacted, his eyes were filled with tears.
Zhou Huaishan's voice was also choked, "Wang Chengkai rescued Xiao Ba, and Mrs. Rongyang Hou's maid Xu Keying rescued Xiao Qi."
Wang Chengkai rescued Xiaoba. Wang Jin was Wang Chengkai's youngest son.
Wang Jin recognized Zhou Huaishan as his godfather.
The emperor lost his voice and said: "You"
Wang Jin nodded with tears in his eyes.
Zhou Huaishan sniffed and said, "The one who was still alive back then was Shunzi."
It's like Easter eggs, popping out one after another.
At this moment, the emperor didn't know whether to cry or applaud. In the end, he just murmured: "Shunzi is alive and well."
Qingyang Hou cried on the old monk's shoulders. The old monk patted his back and wiped his own tears.
They all knew this, but they were still so sad that they couldn't help crying.
It’s so fucking sad!
"Shunzi said that for nearly half a year after the incident, in the dead of night, people in black came to the Rongyang Marquis Mansion to look for things."
Zhou Huaishan's tone was quite calm as he relayed what Shunzi told him one by one.
Shen Li knew all this.
After Zhou Huaishan finished speaking, Shen Li said: "At first, I thought it was this square jade pendant they were looking for, but later I found out that it was not, or in other words, not entirely."
The old monk of the Great Buddha Temple said: "There was an accident in the Rongyang Hou Mansion, and Ma Nian Nian found me the next day. At that time, I was so shocked that I couldn't recover after hearing the bad news. Later, Ma Nian left the picture to tell me that this might be the murderer. Disappeared.
About half a month later, some uninvited guests came to Lao Na's home. "
They said they were uninvited guests, but they basically sneaked into the house secretly.
The emperor said: "You are also looking for something?"
The old monk nodded, "Yes, I encountered some people and fought with them. I can't tell where they went, and I can't tell who they are."
If he could figure out who he was back then, he wouldn't have had any clue about the murder case.
Qingyang Hou followed and said: "I and Yun Qingbo have not experienced this kind of experience, but Lidehou has experienced it. Previously, Lidehou's youngest son was kidnapped, and the other party asked Lidehou to hand over a very important thing. The other party named the thing as belonging to the Rongyang Hou Mansion.
Unfortunately, no one found out who the kidnapper was. "
After the exchange of news, the whole room fell silent.
Zhou Qing licked his lips and said: "Since the jade pendant is from Nanzhao Kingdom, can it be understood that Nanzhao Kingdom was involved in that tragedy?
If Nanzhao participated in the tragedy, according to time calculation, the direct reason for Nanzhao's participation in the tragedy was the change of their imperial power at that time.
The beneficiary of this tragedy can obtain the succession rights of Nanzhao Kingdom.
In other words, the current emperor of Nanzhao can only ascend the throne if the Rongyang Hou Mansion is destroyed. "
Zhou Qing turned to look at her father.
"Dad, is the Rongyang Marquis Mansion holding some secrets from the Nanzhao royal family?"
After saying that, without waiting for Zhou Huaishan's reply, Zhou Qing shook his head in denial.
"It's not a matter of secrets. If it were a secret, the whole family wouldn't be wiped out and no one would be left alive."
Wang Jin then accepted Zhou Qing's words, "We can't think of anyone in our family as the heir to Nanzhao!"
This guess is quite ridiculous.
Zhou Huaishan raised his hand and slapped him on the head, "Just because my hair is green doesn't mean that I am green!"
Completely forgetting that this is the imperial study room.
The emperor himself didn't feel anything was wrong, and his thoughts were still stuck in the analysis just now.
What terrible thing was hidden in the Rongyang Hou Mansion to cause such a catastrophe? His thoughts were rolling in his memory over the years, and the emperor tried hard to find any clues.
However, the old Marquis was a complete playboy. What he did all day long was either walking birds or fighting cocks. He had handed over military power a long time ago. What could happen to such a family?
And why twenty years ago.
At that time, Rongyang Hou's father had passed away for many years.
The emperor rubbed his brows, not wanting to waste any more time, and directly ordered Shen Li, "You can directly interrogate the people from Nanzhao."
Shen Li's eyelids twitched, "Your Majesty!"
Zhou Huaishan was also startled, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, I would rather not take revenge!"
Once the emperor really took action against the envoys of Nanzhao, a war between the two dynasties would be inevitable.
The emperor said: "If this matter is really related to the royal family of Nanzhao, unless the problem can be solved without war, otherwise, a war is inevitable."
Zhou Huaishan shook his head, "Personal grudges are not worth the lives of the people, and the souls of the several lives lost in Rongyang Marquis's mansion will not rest in peace.
The Zhou family army has always been doing things to protect the country and will never involve the people in personal grudges.
Since it is related to the change of the imperial power of Nanzhao, the current King Ping of Nanzhao must know something.
Why not find another way."
If you don't know, you can ask the enemy, or the enemy of the enemy.
This King Ping is the former prince of Nanzhao, who suddenly got a heart disease and was deprived of the throne overnight.
In the past, there was no clue or direction, but now there is a direction, which is progress, and it is a big progress.
Zhou Huaishan did not seek a quick victory, but only a result, but he did not want to implicate innocent people.
As he was talking, a young eunuch outside suddenly reported back.
"Your Majesty, it's not good. There is news from the Cining Palace. The Queen Mother is afraid that she is not well!"
The young eunuch reported quickly and hurriedly, interrupting the conversation in the room.
After the palace banquet yesterday, the Queen Mother fell into a coma when she returned. She was already healthy in the middle of the night. Although she was still in a coma this morning, I heard that her pulse was stable. How could she be fine again?
Even though the emperor hated the Queen Mother, as her biological son, he had to go there at this moment.
After hesitating for a while, the emperor pointed at Shen Li, "You accompany me there, everyone else, retreat."
