Chapter 176

Zheng Yi is a person who cherishes his life.

Since Li Mu and Liu Fang had accidents one after another, no matter how stupid he was, he could realize that his situation was not good, not to mention that Zheng Yi was not stupid at all.

Zheng Yi reported his illness to the court and took a leave of absence, but he didn't even go to the court to discuss it. He stayed at home all day long to grow flowers and grass, read and write.

After several days of watching the Lantern Festival, his family went out to enjoy the lanterns and play. Zheng Yi was a little idle. He wanted to go out several times, but was persuaded by his family. He could not help but go at the night banquet in the capital of the Qin Palace.

As a result, something happened in the Qin Palace last night.

Zheng Yi was so glad that he didn't dare not take his life seriously. He even stayed in the study and would not leave anyone who called him.

Qin Miaoyu didn't know whether Zheng Yi had something to do with the enemy in secret, and was afraid that he would easily alarm the enemy by turning dark into light, so he could only monitor and protect him secretly, almost day and night, and did not dare to slack off.

But unexpectedly, there was an accident even if there was no way to prevent it.

Just now, the solar eclipse appeared, the capital was shaking, the people were frightened, and the Zheng Mansion was in chaos. When Zheng Yi heard the news, he rushed out of his home, his face changed drastically, and he muttered something, saying that he wanted to enter the palace to meet the emperor, but his family couldn't stop him, so he had to prepare a carriage to send him into the palace.

It was the first time that Qin Miaoyu saw this legendary celestial phenomenon, and he was inevitably confused for a moment. He caught up with Zheng Yi shortly after he got on the carriage.

But it was too late, and Zheng Yi's carriage was parked halfway.

The coachman said that the owner had a stomachache and immediately got out of the car and borrowed a house to use the toilet to avoid being rude to enter the palace. So he saw a shop selling tofu on the street and hurriedly borrowed a thatched cottage for use. Unexpectedly, he didn't come out after entering.

Qin Miaoyu ran into the inner room to observe, but as expected, Zheng Yi was already dead.

"He has no wounds on his body and has not been seen by the coroner. I don't know if he died of poisoning."

"I heard from the Zheng family that he has an old heart disease on weekdays. He may have been frightened by the Tiangou Food Day and died suddenly after a heart disease."

"But I think it wouldn't be so coincidental."

"It was my poor supervision that led to Zheng Yi's death. I also asked Cui Zun to sue him!"

Qin Miaoyu finished speaking in one breath, his heart still hung in the air.

Although she is not a subordinate of Zuo Yue Bureau, Feng Xiao is in prison this time, and asking them to help Cui Bulu is actually equivalent to asking Jie Jianfu to temporarily obey Cui Bulu's orders.

Qin Miaoyu felt that if it weren't for her negligence, Zheng Yi would have no need to die.

There was a solar eclipse first, and then Zheng Yi's death. Those who are interested will inevitably have another wave, so they make a big fuss about the throne of God today.

Nowadays, the government and the country are in chaos, and even the important officials in the court may not have muttered a few times in private. Since the beginning of spring in the fourth year of the imperial examination, one after another has not stopped.

Some people even started to talk about changing their names.

It can be said that one wave has not yet settled, and another wave has risen again.

If Qin Miaoyu had said that before, she also sneered at the rhetoric of changing dynasties, but now she dared not be so sure.

This is the power brought by natural disasters and man-made disasters and rumors.

If even Qin Miaoyu is like this, then the opinions of the people will be clear without asking.

Cui Bugu didn't express his opinion, and looked at the bright moon first.

Mingyue sighed: "Where is my side, things are quite complicated."

When he went to meet the saint, he happened to encounter a solar eclipse.

Not to mention the people, even the palace was in panic and people were in chaos at that time.

But the emperor was the emperor after all. He was furious and frightened and thought that the key to the same problem as Cui Buqu was, that is, Taishi Cao's serious dereliction of duty in the solar eclipse.

He immediately sent someone to arrest Tai Shiling, but soon received news that Tai Shiling died at home, and the cause of death was poisoning.

For Taishi Cao, predicting solar eclipse is a matter of duty.

However, such a big event must be reported to the emperor immediately after learning about it.

If the emperor could learn it early and the court could make more sufficient preparations for this, at least the court officials could come up with solutions in time.

In addition to the Taishi Ling, there are also several positions such as Taishi Cheng, Sili, and Jianhou.

In other words, Tai Shi Ling alone cannot hide such great news.

According to the Taishi Cao and others, the person responsible for observing astronomy was Li Xin, the Sili, who was the first to see the astronomy of the Taishi Cao, and even Taishi Ling Hongyuan himself was inferior to that of the Taishi Ling.

When the emperor ordered someone to capture Li Xin for investigation, Li Xin was already scared and said that he had reminded Hong Yuan at that time. Hong Yuan only said that he would report secretly that Li Xin would not speak everywhere and be honest.

Li Xin also knew that this matter was very important and should not be hyped, so he honestly ignored external affairs and kept it in his heart and would not say anything.

According to what he said, a few days later, Hong Yuan told him that he had reported to the emperor. When Li Xin heard this, he felt relieved and did not doubt it. After all, Hong Yuan was his superior.

The major affairs of the country were in sacrifices and Rong. After the Qin and Han Dynasties, the position of Sitian, which was used to observe stars and fate, was gradually divided, and the official positions became lower and lower.

For places like Taishi Cao, it is naturally very important to say that it is important, but there is nothing to do on weekdays, it is just a cold yamen, and few people are concerned about it.

Who knew that such a big thing happened today? Li Xin realized that Hong Yuan had not reported this matter at all.

Mingyue knew that the situation was urgent, so she opened the conversation and said that it was only then that she paused for a moment and took a breath.

"Hong Yuan also hanged himself. He left a suicide note at home, saying that he deserved to die, so he apologized for his death, begged His Majesty to be kind and give his family a glimpse."

Cui Bugu raised his eyebrows: "His family."

They are all case handling departments, Mingyue immediately knew what he was going to ask.

"His first wife died early and only one son was under his knees, but his son disappeared a few months ago. Hong Yuan told his neighbor that he was studying at home. Hong Yuan was a little withdrawn and had no friends in the court, so almost no one noticed this. But then again, ordinary people avoid suspicion and would not get too close to the officials of Taishi Cao."

Mingyue didn't say anything more. The incident happened too suddenly. He was busy coming over again and could only get so much information.

Cui Bugu pondered and said nothing.

Neither Mingyue nor Qin Miaoyu bothered him.

Anyone can see that the situation in front of them is very unfavorable.

The problem is that the enemy hides in the dark, while the Sui Dynasty is a giant in the bright spot.

In recent years, the emperor has been committed to solving the Turks in the north. Both sides have been fighting back and forth, and they have been fighting several times. The Great Sui Dynasty welcomed the Turks' bow at a heavy price.

This was an unprecedented achievement. Even Emperor Wu of Zhou, who was known for his wiseness in the previous dynasty, wanted to marry the Turkic princess as his wife to show good neighborliness and friendship.

However, since the Great Sui Dynasty was not afraid of war, there were countless Turks on the surface, and various plots and tricks began to be frequently used.

The 13th floor of Yunhai had a big plan. Xiao Lu was not from the Sui Dynasty and had no idea of ​​family and country. Naturally, he was unscrupulous when working with the Turks.

It is easy to block open guns, but difficult to prevent hidden arrows, not to mention that the other party uses celestial phenomena to confuse people's hearts.

The piece Hong Yuan had probably been laid out several months or even earlier.

Even if Cui Bulu makes a brilliant plan, he would not be able to calculate that the enemy would use Hong Yuan as a joke.

At that time, he was probably on his way to Liugong City, busy discussing alliances with the Western Turkic envoys.

But Xiao Lu was already planning for a chaos that would take a long time.

Now that the matter has come to this point, the investigation of the crime is second, and the clues are interrupted.

The truth is almost difficult to find out within one or two days, and tomorrow it will be the Buddha's meeting.

The Buddhist Association will be held at Daxingshan Temple.

There are many people in northern Buddhism. Daxingshan Temple is named after the title before the Sui Emperor ascended the throne, and has strong support from the imperial court, which is as large as the national temple.

The emperor personally visited the Buddhist meeting. The temple was closed in and out of the inside and outside of the temple since yesterday. The monks were allowed to hold a warrant and were not allowed to go out. Inside and out, they were surrounded by the imperial guards into iron barrels.

After the solar eclipse, Daxingshan Temple's defense will only be stricter and will not be looser. It is necessary to ensure that there will be no mistakes.

Although they have made complete preparations and arrangements, Mingyue and Qin Miaoyu still have a premonition that the enemy will definitely take advantage of tomorrow to cause storms.

The success of the king may be defeated by the enemy. This may be a one-shot.

However, it is unknown how the enemy will take action.

Qin Miaoyu was worried and couldn't help but say, "Cui Zun Envoy, why don't you persuade Your Majesty that the Buddha will be spared tomorrow? Or find someone with similar appearance to Your Majesty..."

Without Cui Bu going to answer, Mingyue rejected her proposal: "No, if there was no solar eclipse, the Buddhist Association might be able to be cancelled now, but whether it is to calm people's hearts or pray for blessings, it will never be cancelled!"

The enemies hidden in the dark may do everything possible to promote the holding of the Buddhist Association.

Qin Miaoyu also knew that his proposal was not feasible.

"I'm sorry, I don't know where and when do you think the enemy will take action tomorrow? We're also ready."

Mingyue said: "Daxingshan Temple must be the key. However, a few days ago, Envoy Cui had reported to His Majesty that he had thoroughly investigated the identity of monks from top to bottom of Daxingshan Temple, and was lenient and strict in. If there was no presiding order, no one would be allowed to enter the temple. All corners of the temple were ordered to search carefully and confirmed that there were no hidden killer hidden weapons, gunpowder ambushing, etc.."

Qin Miaoyu thought for a while: "It's very appropriate."

She couldn't think of any mistakes either.

Cui Bugu shook his head: "It's not enough."

The two looked at him.

Cui Bugui just said, "Mingyue, I want you to help me with two things."

...

Ordinary people can never go to the Ministry of Justice prison once in their lifetime.

It is already thankful that those who come in can stay quietly without being arraigned or punished.

But Feng Xiao was very dissatisfied.

Whispering cry came from a distance, and those who didn't know thought it was haunted here.

The damp smell floated past the nose, which was the smell of rotten grass that had not seen the light of day for a long time.

Feng Xiao simply clung to the point of meditation, without seeing his eyes and his mind was not upset.

Once a martial arts practitioner enters the state of forgetting things and self, he can completely isolate external interference. Feng Xiao deliberately blocks the five senses and does not sense any color, fragrance, smell, or movement.

At this time, his body was protected by true qi. If a little girl wanted to take the opportunity to attack, she would only suffer the consequences unless she reached the level of martial arts such as Xiao Lu.

But when he finished his breathing and exercise, he recovered from his closed state, he felt a foul smell coming like a sea of ​​stinking, almost vomiting him!

Fengxiao: What happened?!
Chapter completed!
