Chapter 796
in heavy rain.

The officials held umbrellas and entered the palace early as usual to prepare for the morning court.

Unexpectedly, just halfway through, I saw a person blocking the middle of the road.

It was Qin Qi, the eunuch who was in charge of the ceremony.

Qin Qi held a fly whisk in his hand and shouted in a high voice: "Your Majesty is not feeling well, so he will stay away from the court for the day. Sirs, please come back."

Stop the court?

Officials, you look at me and I look at you, they all feel a little incredible.

Qin Qi didn't bother to see them and hurried to Qianqing Palace.

When he arrived at the gate of Qianqing Palace, he took the umbrella from the little eunuch behind him, said "wait here", and walked towards the man kneeling in the rain.

"Your Highness, be careful."

Zhao Yishi looked up and saw Qin Qi and smiled at him: "Nothing."

Qin Qi looked at his lips that were purple from the cold, feeling extremely sad.

When the late emperor was alive, this grandson was his favorite. Not to mention punishing him by kneeling down, he would not let go even if he spoke harshly.

After a thousand turns, Qin Qi pressed the umbrella and whispered: "Your Highness, there is a situation in the north. Your Majesty has been sitting there for an hour. Please be patient."

Zhao Yishi froze, and there was no hint of joy on his face. Instead, a hint of worry flashed across his eyes.

If you are really afraid, you will come.

He raised his hand and hugged Qin Qi, "Eunuch Qin..."

"No way, absolutely no way."

Qin Qi couldn't stand the prince's courtesy, "Your Highness, don't worry, I will definitely find a way to persuade your majesty if I have any idea."

Zhao Yishi smiled sadly: "Thank you for your hard work, father-in-law."

"See what His Highness said, I'll go right now."

Qin Qi hurriedly stood up, hurriedly walked to the eaves of Qianqing Palace, threw away his umbrella, brushed off the raindrops on his body, and stepped across the threshold.

in the temple.

The new emperor was still sitting in front of the desk with a solemn look on his face, with two memorials in hand.

The two memorials, one from the North and the other from General Bu, were delivered to His Majesty personally by Qin Qi.

Qin Qi sighed secretly in his heart. In fact, it would be difficult for the new emperor.

The new emperor back then was just like the prince kneeling outside now. He could really make the final decision on any matter, but it was not all the former emperor who had the final say.

The former emperor was so anxious about the Zheng family's case that he took the new emperor to his son and beat him every day.

The new emperor's legs were not working well. It was difficult to kneel down and even more difficult to get up.

It just so happened that the Third Division sent evidence. If you look at the evidence from left to right, there is nothing wrong with it, so the case is finalized. Who would have thought...

"His Majesty."

Qin Qi called out cautiously, "It's time for breakfast."

The new emperor didn't even blink, he just let out a faint breath, lowered his head, and slowly put his hand on his forehead.

At this moment, Qin Qi felt a trace of sympathy for him for no reason.

Less than two months after sitting on the dragon throne, he had to tell the world about the mistakes he had committed in the past. Which emperor in the past has ever had such an experience?
The Zheng family was full of loyal people, and their death was so tragic. People in the world would only place their resentment on the new emperor, calling him incompetent and fatuous.

In the future, meticulous history books will also record this stroke with great detail. How many people will carefully study the rights and wrongs here?
Thinking of this, I originally planned to give some advice, but I couldn't say it anyway.

Qin Qi silently took a few steps back and hid his body in the darkness.

……

Other courtyard.

corner door.

After listening to Zhu Qing's words, Xie Zhifei bowed his head and confessed a few words.

Zhu Qing nodded, put on his raincoat, got on his horse, and disappeared into the heavy rain.

Xie Zhifei held an umbrella and went to the inner house. In the rain and fog, he saw Yan Sanhe standing under the eaves with his hands behind his back.

is waiting for him.

Xie Zhifei's irritability because Huairen hadn't left the palace suddenly calmed down a lot.

He walked forward, put away his umbrella, and stood with her, "Do you have anything to say?"

Yan Sanhe raised his head and glanced at him, "Xie Zhifei, what if my intuition is wrong?"

"If you're wrong, you're wrong. What's the point? Besides, when did you miss it?"

Xie Zhifei lowered his shoulders and touched her lightly, "Do you have anything else to say?"

"Gone."

"I do." Xie Zhifei said: "In order to expose the injustice of the Zheng family to the world, apart from the reason for the war horse, do you have any other selfish motives?"

"Have!"

Yan Sanhe pointed in the direction of the palace, with a ball of fire in his black eyes.

"I just want to tell those powerful people that not everything can be covered by one hand, even if you are the Ninth Five Supreme Being. And..."

She paused and her voice slowed down, "We promised Wu Shunian."

Why do you girl take everything on yourself?

The person who agreed was obviously Pei Mingting.

Xie Zhifei looked at her thin shoulders, hiding his heartache and worry deeply in his dark eyes.

"Tell me, why did he do this?"

Xie Zhifei quietly began to test.

"Huairen is right. The Zheng family is full of loyal people and the old general is on the battlefield. By doing this, he is not afraid that the matter will spread to the old general and affect the entire war situation?"

No one answered.

The people around him stood quietly.

Xie Zhifei didn't really want to hear the answer from her.

The reason why he asked again was to remind her tactfully——

If you check further, do you really not care about your identity being exposed?Do you really not care about life and death?
Silly girl, if you can do this for the Zheng family, the Zheng family will not support you in vain.

Suddenly, my arm tightened.

Xie Zhifei turned around and found that Yan Sanhe's expression was extremely tense, "What's wrong?"

"Not right!"

"Something's wrong."

"There's something wrong with the war horse."

Xie Zhifei didn't understand. Something was wrong with the war horse for a long time. It had been wilting. Why did she come to talk now?

"Xie Zhifei, let me ask you, what does the collapse of the Zheng family wall mean?"

Is that even a question?
"It means there is injustice in the Zheng family's case."

"Then, what does it mean when the horse languishes?"

"It means the Zheng family..."

Xie Zhifei was halfway through speaking when he suddenly couldn't continue.

War horses have nothing to do with the Zheng family. The only ones that can have a relationship are Zhan Zhan and Old General Zheng.

"The accidents to the Chinese war horses started after the death of that old horse. That old horse was General Zheng's mount. Horses are human-like..."

Yan Sanhe's chest rose and fell slightly.

"Bu Liu said that this horse had not eaten or drank for several days because of the death of General Zheng. Is there a possibility..."

"What?" Xie Zhifei's voice suddenly became tight.

Yan Sanhe burst out word by word, "Is there something fishy about the death of General Zheng?"

"Cough cough cough..."

Xie Zhifei suddenly coughed violently.

He coughed violently, as if he had been frightened by something, and couldn't stop at all.

Yan Sanhe wanted to reach out and pat his back, but he brushed it away.

He turned around, put his hands on the wall, and held his chest to calm down for a while before he recovered. When he looked up again, his dark eyes were filled with tears from coughing up.

"Yan Sanhe."

His voice suddenly became hoarse: "What do you think is strange about the death of General Zheng?"

"I can't tell."

She just suddenly thought of it when she heard Xie Zhifei say that the old general was on the battlefield and he had wiped out the whole Zheng family, so he was not afraid that the matter would spread to the old general and affect the entire war situation.

Thinking again about war horses...

"Xie Zhifei, have you ever thought about something?"

"You said."

"Before the old general died, would he have known that his family had been wiped out?"

Xie Zhifei's pupils shrank instantly, he bent down and coughed again.
