The death of any empress dowager is no trivial matter.

As the actual ruler of Zhao State during this period, this empress dowager, who was later called "Empress Zhao Wei" by his descendants.

King Zhao was very sad.

In front of everyone, King Zhao cried heartbrokenly and fainted on the spot.

This triggered another small riot.

Fortunately, King Huiwen of Zhao had just passed away, and the ministers present were very familiar with organizing funerals.

All matters only need to be increased or decreased according to the specifications of the Empress Dowager, and there is no need to let King Zhao take the initiative in everything.

Li Jian dragged his tired body away from the palace and got on the carriage home.

Lin Xiangru and Lian Po were also in the same car as him.

Li Jian lay half-lying on the back of the carriage without any grace, squinting his eyes to sleep, but Lin Xiangru grabbed his arm.

"Don't pretend to be asleep, I have something to ask you."

Seeing that the other party was the future wife and grandfather, Li Jianqiang was energetic and glanced at Lin Xiangru.

"Lin Qing just asks."

Lin Xiangru's eyes were bright and he said in a deep voice:

"I want to know what happened in the hall last night?"

Li Jian yawned a big yawn and said:

"What happened? Didn't Lin Qing have witnessed it with his own eyes?"

Lian Po nodded repeatedly and looked at Lin Xiangru:

"Yes, right, are you overly sad and confused?"

Lin Xiangru glared at Lian Po fiercely:

"I think you are really confused. Li Jian, tell me the truth, what happened."

"If you don't say it, I will cancel the engagement between you and Rouer!"

Li Jian was shocked and couldn't help but say:

"Lin Qing, we have already started to go through the Six Lessons process. How can you go back on your word?"

Lin Xiangru's nostrils are facing the sky:

"It's not the first time I've been going back on my word anyway. If you really don't say it this time, so what if I don't want this old face?"

Li Jian: “…”

You said that you are a dignified Lin Xiangru and a person with such an excellent eloquence, so you can't use your tongue to convince me with the lotus flowers. Do you have to use this shameless way?

This method has proven to be very useful.

Li Jian sighed and said:

"This is what you want to know. I will tell the truth later, don't say I'm making up."

...

Pingyuan Jun was sitting in the carriage home, next to him was Pingyang Jun.

The carriage suddenly stopped halfway, and a few seconds later, the coachman opened the door and handed in a note.

Pingyuan Jun opened the note and looked at it, his expression immediately became serious.

Mr. Pingyang couldn't help but say, "What happened, brother."

It took a while for Pingyuan Jun to say:

"Le Cheng took people to capture the Seventh Princess last night and found that the Seventh Princess had hanged herself."

Pingyang Jun was surprised and said:

"Will someone be murdered?"

Pingyuan Jun snorted and said:

"All have been convicted. Even if someone really forced her to hang herself, she deserves it."

"But Le Cheng found a letter at the scene, which was said to be written by the Seventh Princess."

Pingyang Jun was a little surprised:

"The letter? The Seventh Princess will not admit it truthfully in the letter, and then commit suicide due to the crime."

Pingyuan Jun had a serious expression and said:

"Only Le Cheng has read the content of the letter. According to our description, Le Cheng's face changed drastically after seeing the letter, as if he had hit a ghost and rushed out of the room."

Pingyang Jun also became interested and said:

"Seeing that he is so anxious, I'm afraid he's going to report to the king soon."

Pingyuan Jun shook his head and said:

"On the contrary, Le Cheng stopped and turned around after running out of the room for less than two steps. Then he pretended to be nothing, and asked his subordinates to deal with the body of the Seventh Princess."

Pingyang Jun said:

"What about the letter? This letter must have a whereabouts."

Pingyuan Jun looked at Pingyang Jun and said:

"For the past day, you and I have been with the king almost all the time. Have you ever seen Le Cheng come up with a letter?"

Pingyang Jun was a little surprised:

"Le Cheng will never be bold, so he will secretly detain the letter."

Pingyuan Jun sneered and said:

"Behind Le Cheng is Tian Dan. Now that the empress dowager has passed away, who knows what kind of thing Tian Dan can do, who is eager to jump over the wall?"

"If Tian Dan took the opportunity to do something, then things would be bad."

The two Zhao Guojun Hou looked at each other and felt a little anxious.

This letter always feels very important.

What exactly is credible content? They know nothing.

Pingyuan Jun pondered for a while, his eyes suddenly lit up.

"By the way, you can ask Li Jian."

When Pingyang Jun heard this, he was stunned.

"Li Jian? How could he know the content of the letter?"

Pingyuan Jun smiled and said:

"Although he doesn't know the content of the letter, he must know something."

"Just just by killing a mere Zhao Ding, the Empress Dowager can promote his official position and title at the same time before he dies? It's impossible to think about it."

"I dare to assert that something must have happened in the hall that night that you, I, the king and others didn't know about it."

"Otherwise, I wouldn't have taken such a big advantage for Li Jian!"

Pingyang Jun was stunned for a moment and sighed:

"Why does this Li Jian have him every time he has a good thing?"

Pingyuan Jun gently stroked his beard, and his expression gradually became solemn.

"In the past, I always felt that he was just a trivial little man."

"But now it seems that the growth of this little person is beyond my expectation."

"Maybe, it's time to treat him solemnly."

...

In the carriage, Lin Xiangru and Lian Po's expressions were frozen at the same time.

Li Jian coughed and said:

"My story... no, my experience was finished last night."

Lin Xiangru once again wanted to reach out to lift Li Jian's neckline, but this time Lian Po's hand was faster.

Lian Po mentioned Li Jian and said viciously:

"Boy, do you know what you're talking about?"

"You actually said that the king is the mastermind behind the murder of the Queen Mother?"

"Do you believe it or not, I can throw you off this carriage now, and then throw you into the prison of Handan Mansion, waiting for a preliminary question to be executed?"

Li Jian didn't even struggle, but instead yawned.
