She gritted her teeth and said in a deep voice: "Do you want to say that the whereabouts of the emperor were leaked by our palace? The incident of the emperor being stabbed is related to this palace?"

The old ministers looked at each other.

Yan Gu immediately said, "The old ministers and others didn't say that."

Zhang Lu continued: "However, since the Empress mentioned this matter himself, I might as well give an explanation."

As he said that, he looked at everyone around him, with a look of surprise and curiosity.

Then he sneered and said to Nan Yan: "The Empress gives an explanation so that we ministers can rest assured, right?"

“…”

"After all, now, if the people who are by the emperor... are ill-intentioned, then who can afford it?"

“…”

Nan Yan looked at him coldly.

Zhang Lu is indeed a minister of justice. He is always serious and he is like a rock or a knife. He can hit the mark and point the blame directly at himself.

When the King of Wei heard this, his brows frowned.

He wanted to say something, but at this time, Nan Yan raised his hand to stop him.

The King of Wei turned to look at her: "The Imperial Concubine..."

Nan Yan didn't talk to him, her eyes were only fixed on Zhang Lu and the others. She was silent for a while, with a cold smile in her eyes, and she slowly said, "Mr. Zhang's words are reasonable."

"Then, please ask the concubine to answer the old minister's questions."

Nanyan nodded and said, "I will answer Lord Zhang's first question first."

Everyone held their breath.

Nan Yan slowly said: "Mr. Zhang's first question is that since Li is my own, do I know that the emperor will be assassinated today?"

Zhang Ludao: "Not bad."

Nanyandao: "I don't know."

These three words were spoken from her. Although the tone was not high, it seemed to be echoing constantly in this quiet and empty hall.

Everyone heard it and felt a little scared.

Zhang Lu and the others frowned and were about to say something, but Nan Yan interrupted: "However, I have another word to say."

“…”

"The premise of this question Mr. Zhang asked is actually wrong."

"What?"

"That's what you said, Li Bushang is my own person."

“…”

"I admit that Li Bushang was brought back from the Yongzhou border, but after he brought back, all his actions had nothing to do with me. He entered the Beizhenfusi and became the commander of the Jinyiwei. This is the emperor's personal guard and an official appointed by the emperor. This is just a concubine in the harem. The people under my jurisdiction have nothing to do with the Beizhenfusi and the commander of the capital!"

Her words were sophisticated and clear, and loud.

The words made several people stunned for a moment.

Nan Yan said slowly again: "If you still want to say that he is from this palace, then today, when I was in the Li Mansion, I have arrested him and his in-laws and sent him to prison. Isn't this in line with the rules of the Ministry of Justice? Or is it that Lord Zhang believes that I should lenient him to meet the fact that you said 'He is from this palace'."

Several people were even silently spoken by her.

At this time, Ge Yunli, the minister of Dali Temple, sneered and said, "The Imperial Concubine is so tough. Before coming, I am afraid that it has been prepared so that I can deal with it without any leakage, right?"

Nanyan turned to look at him.

Ge Yunli said coldly: "The Imperial Concubine asked the people from the Li Mansion to be arrested. This is indeed in line with the Ministry of Justice and the rules of our Dali Temple to do business. However, the person who handles this matter is neither the Ministry of Justice nor our Dali Temple, but you, the Imperial Concubine!"

“…”

"When will the Imperial Concubine interfere in the affairs of our Dali Temple and the Ministry of Justice?"

Everyone was shocked when they said this.

Many people immediately agreed: "That's right, the harem cannot interfere in politics!"

"This matter should be left to the Ministry of Justice and Dali Temple to take charge. It's not the turn of the harem to intervene!"

"Can the truth be found out after intervening like this?"

For a moment, the crowd was excited.

The King of Wei immediately said: "You are all quiet, we have our own arrangements for this matter!"

Someone in the crowd said, "Your Highness, the emperor is assassinated, and we don't know what the situation is like. Just lock us up here. Your Highness must control the situation. Otherwise, if someone takes the opportunity to cause trouble, the sky of the Great Yan Dynasty will be overturned!"

The King of Wei turned pale when the man said.

Just when there was a noisy noise in the Xuanqiong Temple, there was almost noisy on the dark streets of the capital.

But soon, a rapid sound of horse hooves broke through the darkness and silence and rushed over.

It was Eunuch Yu who led a few soldiers from the Imperial Camp to gallop. Although he was old and didn't move much, he looked fat and stupid, but at this time, he was galloping like lightning. Several soldiers from the Imperial Camp also waved their whips to barely keep up with him.

Soon, they arrived at the east gate of Beiyuan.

According to the days, tonight, Jiang Shan, an official from the Nine Gate, will patrol the east gate of the North Wall tonight.

As soon as I arrived at the city gate, I saw that the city gate was opened. Although there was a curfew and no one went in, the door that was opened like a beast opened its mouth wide, and the wind blowing in from outside seemed to be full of blood.

Eunuch Yu turned over and dismounted. When he saw this scene, he suddenly shivered.

But he immediately threw the reins to the soldiers guarding the city who were asking questions.

The soldiers naturally knew him, and immediately said, "Eunuch Yu? Why did you come here at night?"

Eunuch Yu asked, "Where is Lord Jiang?"

One of the soldiers pointed at it: "It's up the city tower."

Eunuch Yu waved his hands to the few personal soldiers behind him, and the group immediately ran up the city tower with great effort. Sure enough, he saw Jiang Shan sitting in the watchtower, and was eating pork with a few personal guards around the brazier.

Eunuch Yu immediately pushed the door open and walked in

"Jiang Shan!"

Although Jiang Shan was an internal official, he was tall. Like Wei Liang and the others before, he followed Zhu Feng from his residence and went to the battlefield to fight. He only wore a thin shirt, revealing his tendon flesh.

When he saw Eunuch Yu coming, he hurriedly stood up: "Eunuch Yu, why are you here?"

As he walked over, he said, "By the way, I heard that there was a curfew early tonight, and I also heard that something seemed to be in trouble in the Li Mansion. What's going on?"

Eunuch Yu took a breath and said, "Close the city gate!"

Jiang Shan was stunned: "What?"

Eunuch Yu said justice: "Close the nine doors inside and outside, hurry!"

“…”
