Chapter 416
"I will return to Beijing at the end..." Tang Leng did not get up and lowered his head, not daring to continue.

"They stole the arrows, so during the investigation, you checked them thoroughly, but there is nothing wrong with them at all." Qingqing nodded. She felt like she was going to fall asleep, so she couldn't help but say for him.

Tang Leng raised his head and glared at Qingqing. There was no need to say anything else, but he still couldn't help but said, "When did you know about it?"

"Today, grandpa said that the person who killed the old man knew me very well, and among the people around me, I was the first to doubt you. However, now it seems that you did not kill the old man. Can you tell me who contacted you? "?" Qingqing looked at Tang Leng.

"I don't know you well, do I?" Tang Leng couldn't help but say.

"Not many people know me and are related to the court." Qingqing thought about it and smiled sheepishly at him.

"You don't doubt Ximen Kai, you doubt me." Tang Leng became even more angry.

"I doubt it too. However, the Ximenkai family is more likely to have done something wrong. Ximenkai had to participate for the sake of the family. However, Ximen's family was still proud 30 years ago, so this matter should have nothing to do with them in principle. "Qingqing explained calmly.

"Thirty years ago?" Mrs. Tang raised her head and looked at Qingqing, her eyes unclear.

"Thirty years ago, the old general returned to Beijing from the north, right? Why?" Qing Qing looked at Mrs. Tang.

"Shouldn't I ask the Emperor about this?" Mrs. Tang thought about it, smiled, and said casually.

"I was only seven or eight years old 30 years ago! However, General Tang publicly supported my father, and I will bear it in my heart." The young emperor smiled and sighed softly.

Qing Qing looked at Tang Leng, "Your grandfather supported the then prince to reverse the Liu family's case, so he was transferred back to the capital by the late emperor to idle. Ten years ago, he was sent to Vietnam to quell the rebellion of the southern barbarians. Soon after the old general returned to the capital He died of illness, so do you suspect that your grandfather was harmed by the late emperor? Because he never supported the late emperor? "

"No, the old general is not supporting anyone, but he feels that he is on the side of justice. So when the prince's disciples found him, he felt that the late emperor's treatment of the late empress was really cruel." Mrs. Tang sighed softly. A sound.

"Actually, his crime is not that big, right? He was just transferred back to the capital, but he also served in the Ministry of War. When the situation became unstable ten years ago, he was the first to go into battle, and the battle against the Nanman was very special. It’s beautiful, and the south will be fine in 20 years?”

"He was originally a man whose country was more important than his family. The dispute between the emperor and the prince was still a matter of family affairs. He did not support the prince at that time. He just wrote a memorial to the late emperor, bitterly stating that the murder of father and son was still a great misfortune for the world. Please, Your Majesty Think twice. At that time, it was thought that hundreds of thousands of troops from the north supported the prince, forcing the late emperor to overturn the case for Queen Liu. It was quite an exaggeration! To the late emperor, the Liu family was gone, and so was the Sun family. He was the former queen. It's nothing special to overturn the verdict. In fact, the point has never been about the Queen!" Mrs. Tang shook her head and smiled bitterly, "And when the old general wrote the memorial of persuasion, he also wrote a glossary at the same time, because he also knew, After I wrote the letter, I can no longer be in charge of the Northern Territory." Qingqing nodded. She believed that it was the emperor's family matter. If a guard general dared to write a letter, his brain was really kicked. The late emperor was so guarded against civil servants, how could he still dare not guard against military generals? ?He would not let anyone go if he became big, so thinking about it now, the old man was really a bit of a warrior back then.

"You didn't advise the old general?" Qingqing couldn't help but look at the old lady. A smart woman who had liked Master Qiao's naughty ways, now she knew that her grandson was wrong and immediately tied him into the palace. How could she let her husband do this? Stupid thing.

"No, that day I looked at what he wrote word by word. I was actually torn in my heart, thinking about whether I should send someone to rob and kill the messenger on the way. But in the end, I didn't do that. The old general told me that he studied Not much, but I still know the saying, "A gentleman does what he does and what he does not do." The late emperor used the inner palace to contain the previous dynasty and created a bloody storm. It was originally unkind and unjust; now that the prince reverses the case for his mother, it is really a big deal. Xiao, if you don't ask him, he may pretend that he doesn't know, but if you ask him, he can't pretend to be deaf and dumb." The old lady sighed longly, "I am also a mother, and my son also When he was only a few years old, I looked into his eyes and finally, I pretended that I knew nothing."

Qingqing nodded. Veteran soldiers always have their own persistence. She hesitated and said, "Who was the disciple back then? Can you tell me?"

"What do you want to know? Do you think that disciple did all this?"

"I'm just jigsawing the puzzle. The fragments of the truth are scattered everywhere, and I just find these fragments one by one and return them to their respective places." Qingqing did not answer directly.

"The disciple is useless, but the letter he brought is. I didn't read the letter. The old general read it carefully several times, and then burned the letter in front of the man. He only said one sentence, Tang knew it. The man was not pretentious and left as soon as he hugged his fists. Therefore, I don’t know who wrote the letter, let alone what was written in the letter. I only read the old general’s memorial to the late emperor. From this inference, That was written by the late prince."

"Now, you doubt it." Qingqing lowered her head and thought, then slowly raised her head to look at the old lady.

"Yes, the prince has been dead for 31 years, and the queen mother has been dead for 34 years, and they still haven't let my grandson go." Mrs. Tang sneered, "The old general never blamed the late emperor, and the late emperor didn't feel sorry for him. In those years, It's not idle. Speaking of which, when the late emperor had nothing to do, he would ask the old general about military matters. The old general still respected the late emperor very much and often lamented that the only crime that the late emperor could not wash away in his life was the murder of his wife and children. .”

Qingqing almost choked to death on her own saliva. Can she still be cleared of the crime of killing her wife and children?Well, is your village so proud of you?
The young emperor and the empress were also a little embarrassed. They cleared their throats and turned their heads to drink a cup of tea, pretending they didn't hear anything.

"General Tang, then, who is going to tell you that your family has a blood feud with the royal family? By the way, what do you want to do?" Qing Qing hurriedly turned to Tang Leng, who was listening to their words blankly.

At this time, Tang Leng was really cold all over. It wasn't that the old lady didn't tell him about the old family affairs, but that she really didn't have time.To the old lady, Tang Leng still represented the hope of the family. She really thought that these old things were in the past, so she would not say anything about it. However, no one knew, someone took advantage of her.

"Speak, what did they ask you to do? Who do you know?" Old Mrs. Tang shouted at Tang Leng.
