Chapter 45

As the saying goes, when a tree falls, the monkeys scatter, but the matter of Song Baichuan has not yet been settled, and there are already a bunch of people behind him.

Jun Tingsheng knew what Qiao Xu meant, and agreed with a smile on his face: "Qiao Shangshu's words are reasonable, I will definitely think about it carefully when I go back, thank you."

However, in Qiao Xu's view, Jun Tingsheng is still entangled with the Song family, obviously not a smart person, so he doesn't intend to stop there.

"The court affairs are particularly complicated. If your son doesn't understand the stakes, why not tell King Chengyang what I just said."

"Looking at the fact that King Chengyang has been an official in the court for many years, it is easy to see the pros and cons of things, and he will naturally make a correct judgment."

Jun Tingsheng knew in his heart that he was trying to win over the Chengyang Palace, and to put it bluntly, he wanted to break Song Baichuan's way out.

"What Shangshu said is that since this is the case, I will pass on to my father every word I said just now."

After speaking, Jun Tingsheng saluted him again, then turned around and left quickly.

Jun Tingsheng was worried that Song Baoling would be angry because he could not find him after being away for too long, so after returning to Xuanpinghou's mansion, he immediately went to find her.

At this time Song Baoling was immersed in drawing in the room, the table and floor were covered with drawing paper, and even her face was stained with ink.

Jun Tingsheng came in and was stunned when he saw this scene, "Ling'er, what are you doing?"

Looking up and seeing the person coming, Song Baoling's eyes lit up immediately, and he stumbled to him with a stack of drawing paper that he had drawn, "Little uncle, look at my drawing."

Jun Tingsheng took the drawing paper and flipped through it, and asked, "What are these?"

Song Baoling tilted his head and thought for a while, then answered intermittently: "When I was taking a nap, I dreamed of a dilapidated house with someone lying on the ground motionless, covered in blood."

"There are still a lot of people searching for things in the house. I seem to know where that thing is, but I'm afraid I will forget it later, so I drew them all down."

After listening to Jun Tingsheng, he didn't pay much attention to it. He just felt that Song Baoling was relieved that he wasn't too worried about the changes at home. When he put the drawing paper on the table, he accidentally saw a piece of drawing paper that he had left behind on the ground.

There were a few big characters written on the drawing paper, but the writing was crooked and a little unclear. He picked it up and held it in his hand to look at it, and his face turned pale with shock.

Secret Letter from Yao Kingdom!

"Ling'er, how did you know how to write these four words?"

Song Baoling tiptoed to look, and said, "I saw it in my dream."

"Dream? How could there be these words in the dream?"

"I... I can't remember."

Jun Tingsheng realized the seriousness of the matter, he held Song Baoling in his arms, and asked her to carefully read the words on the drawing paper.

"Ling'er, think about it carefully, where did you see it? What does the house in your dream look like?"

If he guessed right, Ling'er's premonition might have played a role again.

Seeing that he was so nervous, Song Baoling guessed that the matter was very important to him, so he immediately lowered his head and recalled the scene in his dream.

But thinking about it, my head began to hurt violently, and the more I thought about it, the more painful it became.

"Little uncle, my head hurts..."

Jun Tingsheng couldn't bear it when he saw her suffering, but he had a premonition that Linger's dream was related to Song Baichuan's imprisonment. If he wanted to save Song Baichuan from the predicament, he was afraid...

"Ling'er, little uncle knows that you are uncomfortable, but this matter is really important, can you think about it again?"

Seeing his expectant gaze, Song Baoling had no choice but to endure his headache and continue to force himself to recall the dream.

Palace Baohua Hall——

"Xuan Pinghou let go of the enemy general privately, which is clearly a violation of military discipline, and His Majesty must punish him severely."

"The lower official agrees with Mr. Zhao's words. Although Xuan Pinghou is far away in the frontier, he can judge matters on the battlefield by himself at critical times, but his actions are really suspicious. I think this matter should be thoroughly investigated immediately!"

"It is said that Xuan Pinghou's actions are suspicious. Do you have any evidence? It is just groundless to say that he let go of the enemy general. I think someone wants to frame Xuan Pinghou."

In the court hall, all civil and military officials were arguing about Song Baichuan's affairs, and the little emperor sitting on the dragon chair felt a little headache when he saw what his courtiers said to each other.

"My lord, I have something to say."

The little emperor looked at the person kneeling on the ground, his eyes changed slightly, "Just say what Zhou Aiqing has to say."

Zhou Qi straightened his waist and knelt in the center of the hall, clasped his fists and said: "As we all know, I and Xuan Pinghou are good friends who have gone through life and death. Based on what I know about him, he will never do anything that is not good for our country."

"Marquis Xuan Ping has guarded the frontier for so many years, and it can be said that he has achieved a lot of victories. How can he doubt his loyalty to the Holy Majesty just because he escaped an enemy general in a small battle."

Speaking of this, he bent down and kowtowed: "Xuan Pinghou's loyalty can be learned from the sun and the moon. I hope the Holy One will see clearly and give him justice!"

The hall was silent, and the little emperor looked at Zhou Qi and frowned, "Zhou Aiqing, since you know that you and Xuan Pinghou are close friends, you still speak for him? Do you know the consequences of your doing so."

I saw Zhou Qi was silent for a moment, straightened up and looked at him, "I know, but I believe in his character, and I hope the Holy One will see clearly."

The surroundings fell into silence again, at this moment, Qiao Xu suddenly walked in from outside the hall.

"Your Excellency Zhou knows a word: You know people, you don't know your face, but you don't know your heart."

Qiao Xu went straight to Zhou Qi, gave him a mocking look, then turned and knelt on the ground: "My lord, I have evidence that Xuan Pinghou colluded with the enemy."

As soon as these words came out, everyone booed in the hall, and Zhou Qi's face became very ugly.

"My lord, I still have something to report."

"Get up and talk."

"Thank you, Lord."

Qiao Xu stood up straight after getting up, looked at the little emperor and said, "The Battle of Yaoshan was chosen by Xuan Pinghou himself, and the reason why he chose this battle was because the people leading the enemy army were The third prince of Yao Kingdom, Fei Zhennan."

"According to the news, Fei Zhennan is not only wise, but also very brave and good at fighting. He is the prince who is especially valued by King Yao."

"This battle is Fei Zhennan's first battle. He needs a record to prove his strength to the people of the Yao Kingdom. Xuan Pinghou also colluded with him so that he can gain prestige in the Yao Kingdom."

"So, Xuan Pinghou was not wronged, he betrayed His Majesty!"

After the words fell, there were whispers in the hall, and Zhou Qi looked at Qiao Xu with a gloomy expression: "Qiao Shangshu, after all, these are just your speculations."

"Xuan Pinghou has fought for the country for many years, and countless enemies have died under his sword. Now you can say that he betrayed the Holy Majesty with just a few words, which is simply too ridiculous!"

Qiao Xu laughed instead of being angry when he heard the words. He turned to look at Zhou Qi, and said with pursed lips, "Ridiculous? I think it's Mr. Zhou who is ridiculous."

"After all, I have a letter from Xuan Ping Hou collaborating with the enemy as proof."
