The Golden Hairpin

Huang Zixia's words were like a thunder in the sunny sky in June, shocking everyone's jaws.

When everyone was stunned, Wang Yun stared at her quietly, only a trace of fluctuations flashed across his face, as if the spring water swept by the breeze, and then calm again.

He asked in a low and gentle voice: "Duke Yang, I don't know what you mean by this sentence?"

Huang Zixia looked at him directly, and was not shaken by his expression: "I mean, the mysterious man who appeared in Xianyou Temple was disguised by Wang Duwei. And you are going to the West Market to buy that one just in case. It is very cautious to mislead the investigator when making up a feature that is easier to remember when making up the props of the trick. It is a pity that you were self-defeating, but you accidentally exposed Xingzang in a critical link."

"I don't know what the key link is." Wang Yun smiled without anger, his expression still graceful, "Duke Yang, according to your inference just now, it was the people in Xianyou Temple who were dressed in disguise at that time, then whether it was a guard or a guard The maid can do it, so how can you say that it is me?"

"Just because you were self-defeating, you originally intended to lead this case to the ghost of Pang Xun, in order to destroy the marriage. But who knows, the arrow cluster of King Tang Kui that you left at the altar at the time finally exposed yours. identity!"

Wang Yun finally showed a wave of ease on his face. He stared at Huang Zixian and asked, "How can that arrow cluster have anything to do with me?"

"The King's Mansion has sent Jing Yi to Xuzhou to investigate. The arrow cluster was stolen by Pang Xun's remnant to buy through the guards of the tower. Soon after the arrow cluster disappeared, a group of Pang Xun's remnants appeared in the nearby state capital and went all the way north. Finally, they disappeared on the outskirts of Chang'an. Although there are quite a few rumors in Beijing, I think everyone here must know the reason."

Li Shubai calmly said next to him: "Did you mean that in March of this year, the Beijing Defense Department learned that stray bandits were haunting the suburbs of Beijing, so the right captain Wang Yun led his troops to meet the enemy and tried to punish the remnants?"

"Yes. However, after the remnants were destroyed, the disappearing arrow cluster did not appear until a few days later, it appeared in Xianyou Temple. The prospective queen of Kui’s palace went to Xianyou Temple to pray for blessings, and the people who mobilized the defense department of the capital naturally couldn’t justify it. Therefore, all the soldiers who went with you at that time were private troops of the Royal Palace. In other words, there are many defense forces in the capital who can get that arrow cluster, and there are also many Royal Army troops who can act as ghosts in Xianyou Temple, but there may be two at the same time. All of you have it, and you are the only one, Lieutenant Wang Yun and Wang Du!"

Wang Yun frowned slightly, still wanting to say something, but then found that he had nothing to say and could only say: "Duke Yang... is really good."

Wang Lin was stunned on the spot, motionless, just looking at his son in a daze.

The emperor looked at the queen, but found that she was only staring at Huang Zixia, her face stiff. He lightly held the queen's hand, only feeling cold, he stretched out his hands to put her hands in his palms, and said, "Don't worry, Wang Yun is both your cousin and my cousin. No matter what, I Will take care of him."

The queen looked back at him, her lips slightly opened, as if she wanted to say something, but for a long time, the emperor only heard the four vague words "Thank you, the emperor".

With a solemn expression on Li Shubai's face, he asked Wang Yun, "So, you did everything? You are the one who spread the rumors of Pang Xun's injustice, and you are the one who made Wang Ruo go missing?"

"Yes... it's all me."

The person who made the noise was Wang Yun.

He glanced at Huang Zixia, turned around and knelt down to plead with the empress, and said: "Wei ministers begged the emperor to confess the crime. This matter... all was thought of by our ministers for a while, so that they made mistakes and made mistakes. This situation has evolved. You deserve death!"

"Oh?" The emperor frowned slightly and asked, "Why did you harm Wang Ruo again?"

Wang Yun said: "Because I feel that Wang Ruo seems to be abnormal after being selected as Princess Kui. After I forced her to ask the people around her, I realized that she had already belonged to Langya. Moreover, Xian Yun and others had discovered her. I swear privately, intending to make a big disturbance on the day of marriage. Weichen... think of the unbearable things my fiancee Huang Zixia did that day. Feeling that the consequences of this matter are worrying, he decided to destroy the marriage."

When Huang Zixia heard him mention her name, her heart jumped.

The corner of her eye saw Wang Yunzheng looking back at her, but she could only suppress herself and not let the expression on her face reveal her secrets.

Only the hands hidden in the sleeves were secretly clenched, the nails embedded in the palms, and the tingling reminded her and made her try to maintain her peace.

Li Shubai glanced at her and saw that her appearance was not abnormal, so he lowered his head again and dropped the jade fan in his hand.

Just listen to Wang Yun said: "At that time, if Wang Ruo was the princess chosen by the king himself, I knew that it was impossible to regret the marriage at this time. I thought I could use this to make a big fuss, so I specifically designed the illusion of Pang Xun’s injustice in order to confuse the audience. Because of this, the female officials and eunuchs around the queen knew that my king’s family was not easy, and they were willing to privately. Help me. Changling and others help me. The queen really doesn't know it, so please be lenient with the emperor."

After listening to Huang Zixian, she frowned for a moment, and then asked, "So, at the beginning of the mistakes in Wang Ruo's Geng post, was it your hands and feet?"

"Errors?" Wang Yunyi didn't understand it.

"The Geng Tie of the Dingqin wrote that the fourth room of the branch of the Langya King's family, Ruo, was born at 2:00 on October 30 in the fourteenth year of Dazhong. But in fact, in the fourteenth year of Dazhong, there were only two children. Nineteenth, not 30th."

"This is my negligence." Wang Yun sighed lightly and nodded. "When I saw the Geng Tie of the clan sister Wang Ruo, I found that the day of her death was the anniversary of Queen Kui's death, and it should never be selected. That’s why I was wise to fill in the vacancy with the word “leap”. But who knew that Si Tianjian, because he cared about the queen, didn’t verify it, so he directly approved a lucky letter and was selected. I thought I was lucky to succeed. Who knows. Cause so many things."

"So, what about Jinnu's death?"

Wang Yun looked up at her. She was standing in the doorway where the light was the strongest. The afternoon sun was shining in at an angle, making her transparent and flawless.

She was dazzling, and at this moment, Wang Yun suddenly felt afraid to look directly.

So he closed his eyes and said, "Yes, everything was designed by me. I spread the rumors first, and then when I mobilized the defensive soldiers and horses in the palace, I took advantage of my position to take Wang Ruo away. In order to prevent future troubles, I He poisoned the Pipa female Jin slave who was about the same body as Wang Ruo, and then moved the corpse to Yongchun Palace..."

Wang Yun's voice was extremely calm, as if he was telling something that had nothing to do with him. "It's just that I didn't expect that the truth will be revealed in the end. Grandpa Yang is really like a god, and everything can't escape your eyes."

"If this is the case, then you tell me." Huang Zixia stared at him, and asked every word, "When did you poison Jinnu's rosin powder?"

"It was in Zhuijin Tower that day, I secretly poisoned me while others were not prepared. Then I followed her, and when she fell, I took her into the palace and placed it in the East Pavilion of Yongchun Hall."

"You're lying!" Huang Zixia coldly exposed his lie, "That day, Jin Nu was in Zhuijinlou and cherished the box of rosin powder. She kept it close to her body and said that she had been given the gift. She has been hiding in her arms. And you have been sitting opposite, what chance do you have to poison her!"

Wang Yun frowned, turned his gaze to one side, and stopped talking.

Huang Zixia nodded and said: "In this case, what you did, Duwei Wang, was just the first modification of Geng Tie and Xianyou Temple. You haven't done everything afterwards. Even if you want to take on the upper body, it is futile. The real murderer behind the scenes, I think it should be—"

When Huang Zixian said this, he finally hesitated slightly.

Her eyes smoothed over the empress and Wang's father and son in front of her, and looked at Li Shubai.

Li Shubai saw her fearless eyes. At this moment, she finally got a trace of fear and hesitation. She naturally knew that she might not just say the truth, but more likely that she would die. declaration.

Li Shubai looked at her and nodded slowly.

His expression is calm and calm, just like when he said, "In any case, I will save your life". It seems calm and graceful, but there is an unbreakable promise hidden behind him.

Huang Zixia pressed her chest, feeling the hesitation that came up from her nervousness and fear slowly receding from her limbs. She has a very clear mind, so she didn’t hesitate to take a deep breath, and said word by word: “Although you want to keep the murderer at all costs, Lieutenant Wang, even though the royal family’s honors are all there today. On this person, the truth is the truth. One hundred, one thousand scapegoats can't hide the blood on her hands!"

Huang Zixia's gaze fell on the Queen's body.

The Queen and Queen Wang Shao, the beauty of the world who is still glamorous in plain clothes and light makeup at this time, sits quietly in the hall, sitting like a peony blooming freely in the windless afternoon.

"Queen King, the master behind all this is you."

There was a dead silence in Yanji Hall.

The emperor slowly let go of the hand of the king and queen, and looked at her like a stranger.

Xian Yun and Ran Yun were already trembling on the ground, not daring to raise their heads.

Wang Lin's face was blue and the beard on his chin trembled slightly.

Only Li Shubai's expression remained as usual. He played with the jade fan pendant in his hand, and said calmly: "Yang Chonggu, what crime it is to arbitrarily discuss the Queen's Royal Highness, do you know?"

"Capital crime." Huang Zixia blurted out without thinking.

"Then you dare to talk nonsense?"

"Back to the prince, everything I said is solid evidence, there is no lie, and there is no nonsense."

"Eunuch Yang." Queen Wang finally said, her voice was slightly hoarse, but she still had the kind of defensive prestige, "You said this case is related to me, I would like to hear more about it. The first thing I want to hear is that My sister and Aruo love the same sister, how can we let her disappear before the wedding, and now her life and death are unknown?"

"Yes, you and Wang Ruo have a deep relationship. People who have met will lament that kind of tenderness, which is rare in a high-ranking person like you, so when I saw it, I really felt it was precious."

"So?" She said coldly. It's just that this sneer is extremely reluctant, almost just touching the corners of his mouth.

"Twelve years ago, you entered the palace as a queen. At that time, Wang Ruo estimated that he was only four or five years old. I just thought at the time that two cousins ​​who are so far apart in age, you seem to have come from the long house. If the relationship should be very alienated, even if it is good, it should be just the kind of affection for the family. Why do you have such an extraordinary love for Wang Ruo?"

"She is a very special daughter in our Wang family's generation. I naturally value her." The Queen said stiffly.

Huang Zixia was noncommittal, lowering his head and said, "From this, I started to consider the fourth question, that is, why did your Royal Highness destroy this marriage and let Wang Ruo go missing."

Queen Wang sneered, raised her chin slightly, as if she did not bother to look at her.

Huang Zixia didn’t care, and continued: “I doubted Wang Ruo’s identity when I taught her the rules of the royal palace. I found in daily that the piano music Wang Ruo had learned since childhood was not the elegant voice that Wang’s ladies should have. It was actually the slang of Huajie Liuxiang."

Wang Lin said angrily: "This is my royal family's lax discipline on children, so what is it to do with Her Royal Highness?"

"Yes, but at the same time, I was on the way back from the palace. Fortunately, Miss Wang drove me a ride with her. In the carriage, I met and did not follow her into the palace, but I should have been waiting for her in the carriage. A Lent woman in China." Huang Zixia turned to look at Xianyun and Ranyun, and said, "Let me ask you first, do you know the old lady who came with Miss Wang from Langya's hometown?"

The two looked at each other in fear, not daring to speak.

Queen Wang said coldly: "What's the matter, tell the truth!"

Xian Yun and Ran Yun nodded in fright. Huang Zixia asked again: "That lady, what is her surname, what is her name, where has she gone now?"

Xianyun said hesitantly: "She... I seem to hear the girl call her Feng Niang, but after we got along for a few days, she went back to her hometown, so I don't know..."

"Really? Going back to my hometown?" Huang Zixia took out the small portraits of Chen Nianniang and Feng Yiniang that she had copied from her sleeve, and asked, "Do you still remember Feng Niang's appearance?"

Xian Yun and Ran Yun tremblingly pointed their fingers at Feng Yiniang on the painting.

"The person in the painting is named Feng Yiniang. Four or five months ago, she was entrusted by the deceased to send the deceased's daughter to Beijing, and there was no more news."

Only these few short digital short films made everyone present seem to have glimpsed the secret of the secret, and it was difficult to look involuntarily-the daughter of the old man she escorted could only be a single person.

"Because Feng Yiniang is not coming home, her sister Chen Nianniang, who is dependent on each other, is the one who painted this—" Huang Zixia moved her finger to Chen Nianniang's body. The slave once recommended her to the palace, but the emperor and the queen did not like the guqin, so she could not find Feng Yiniang with the help of the power in the palace. Later, she was hired by the king of E, and I took this small portrait to help her get home When the Ministry inquired, there was no whereabouts of Feng Niang—the Wang family did not send her roster to the Ministry of Households."

Wang Lin said with a sullen face: "At that time, things were too busy, and she went back soon, so she didn't report to the household department."

"Is she really going back to Langya?" Huang Zixian said, not afraid of his expression, "Unfortunately, I was in the Huhu Department when I met a small official who was going to deal with the refugees in Youzhou. He recognized the painting. Feng Yiniang was one of the refugees who died, and remembered that there was a mole on the left eyebrow of the female corpse."

Wang Yun frowned invisibly. And Xian Yun and Ran Yun had already called out in a low voice.
