Luo QingHan asked calmly.

"Imperial concubine Hui, imperial concubine Ning, imperial concubine Xian and the four princes did not participate in the rebellion, but they were all dead. Aren't they innocent?

Or, in the eyes of the empress mother, only the life of the Qin family is life.

Other people's lives are just grass mustard and ants, which is not worth mentioning. "

The empress of the Qin emperor looked at him firmly: "I will repay their lives."

Luo QingHan was noncommittal.

Queen of the Qin Emperor: "I just want the Qin family to leave a little blood. Qin Xiya is just a woman and has married a woman. Even if you keep her alive, it won't hinder you much."

Luo QingHan: "Qin lie and Qin Chong were killed because they were alone, and even the whole Qin family was killed. If Qin Xiya was left alive, do you think she would spend the rest of her life in peace? Or would she be desperate to seek revenge from Gu?"

Queen Qin: "I will persuade her to give up the idea of revenge."

"Empress mother, you have warned your ministers.

We must do everything absolutely. We must not give the enemy a chance to fight back. The benevolence of women is absolutely unacceptable.

I think your words are very reasonable.

If you cut the grass without removing the roots, the spring breeze will blow again. "

Empress Qin couldn't speak.

Luo QingHan: "if the empress mother has nothing else to say, her son's minister will leave."

Seeing that he was leaving, empress Qin quickly stopped him.

"The king of Xiling gave me something before he left. You should be very interested in such things."

Luo QingHan: "what is it?"

Empress Qin looked at the eunuchs and bodyguards standing around.

Luo QingHan waved his hand.

Father Chang took the crowd out.

They stood at the gate of the temple.

The gate of the main hall is open. Father Chang can see the scene in the hall as long as he tilts his head slightly.

He saw the empress of the Qin emperor talking, but because she was separated by a distance and her voice was very light, he couldn't hear what she said.

Empress Qin took out a letter from her sleeve and handed it to the prince.

Luo QingHan didn't reach for it.

He asked coldly, "what is this?"

Queen Qin: "this is what the king of Xiling left before he left. I want to exchange it for Qin Xiya's life."

Luo QingHan: "what's its use for me?"

"It can help you win the throne faster."

……

The king of Xiling and his party fled all night. They were careful to avoid crowded places. Even they could only sleep in the wilderness for the night.

Fortunately, it's hot now. It's cool to sleep in the wild at night.

The only annoying thing is that there are many snakes, insects, rats and ants. Several guards have been accidentally bitten by poisonous snakes and insects and died.

The carriage drove on a remote mountain road.

Xie chuxue waited on the Xiling king to take medicine.

With the growth of time, the frequency of toxic attacks is faster and faster. Even taking drugs can only slightly alleviate the pain caused by toxic hair.

The king of Xiling asked in a dumb voice, "is there still no news from Han Li?"

Xie chuxue worried: "No."

Han Li is their well-trained martyr. He is very loyal to them and has no possibility of betrayal.

Now they have lost contact with Han Li. There is only one possibility that Han Li is dead.

Xiling King: "we underestimated Fang Wujiu. He should have noticed Han Li long ago. He just pretended not to know and deliberately tempted us to put down our guard. Although Han Li has excellent martial arts, he is far inferior to Fang Wujiu in mind."

Xie chuxue pursed his lips: "I knew so. When Fang Wujiu was injured, we should take the opportunity to kill him."

Xiling King: "it's so far. It's useless to say more."

Looking at his pale face, Xie chuxue thought of the little time he had left and couldn't help but red his eyes.

"Father, I don't want to see you die."

King Xiling doesn't want to die.

He is full of ambition. How can he be willing to die before he can show it?!

The king of Xiling closed his eyes and said, "go back to Xiling county first and let someone go to Nanyue to inquire about it."

Xie chuxue's eyes brightened: "people in the South moon are good at refining poison and raising Gu. Nine times out of ten strange poisons in the world come from the South moon. We may find a means to detoxify from the South moon."

Nanyue is a small border country in the south of Dasheng Dynasty.

That place is very remote. It belongs to the uncivilized southern barbarian land and is extremely exclusive.

It's a little difficult to deal with them, but Xie chuxue believes that Nanyue people will be willing to help as long as they give enough benefits.

There is a long way to go. It's too boring to sit. Xie chuxue turns to ask about another curious thing for a long time.

"Father, what did you leave to the queen when you left the palace?"

King Xiling said, "it was a letter written by the former Emperor before his death."

Xie chuxue became more and more curious: "is it the last imperial edict?"

"No, the first emperor left in such a hurry that he didn't have time to make a last edict."

Xie chuxue frowned and looked puzzled: "but I remember the imperial edict when the emperor succeeded to the throne."

Speaking of this, the king of Xiling couldn't help raising the corners of his mouth and showing a mocking smile.

"The edict is false."

Xie chuxue was surprised: "is it fake?"

"The imperial edict was written by Qin lie imitating the handwriting of the former Emperor, and the seal of the jade seal on it was also stamped by the sixth prince himself. King Chen Liu and I were responsible for handing over the false imperial edict to the cabinet. After the elders confirmed it, the Imperial Academy drafted an edict to announce to the world. The sixth Prince naturally ascended the throne and became the new emperor."

As a famous calligrapher, Qin lie not only wrote well, but also had a first-class ability to imitate others' handwriting.

Qin Xiya's ability to imitate handwriting was learned from Qin lie.

Even the joint examination of the six cabinet elders failed to find out any clues about the imperial edict.

So far, the imperial edict has been placed in the ancestral temple. No one knows that it is false except those present at that time.

Xie chuxue didn't expect such a secret.

She followed the thought of King Xiling and couldn't help asking.

"If the imperial edict is false, is there a problem with the death of the former Emperor?"

King Xiling: "what do you say?"

Xie chuxue only feels afraid of thinking carefully.

"What is the letter you left to the queen?"

The king of Xiling slowly told the story.

"That's a secret letter from the former Emperor to the Duke of Chang.

At that time, the former Emperor was seriously ill. He realized that there was something wrong with the pill he took every day. He suspected that someone bribed the Taoist priest to murder him.

The first person he suspected was the sixth prince.

But the first emperor was too ill to get up. In addition, a large number of supporters gathered around the sixth prince at that time. It was difficult to punish the sixth prince.

So the first emperor wrote to Duke Chang to help collect the criminal evidence of the six princes.

Duke Chang was the first emperor's uncle and the last Secretary of Dali temple. It is reasonable to leave this matter to him.

Unfortunately, this letter was cut off by me before it was sent out of the palace.

After reading the contents of the letter, I knew that the former Emperor had doubts about the sixth prince.

But I did not report the matter to the sixth prince, but quietly left the secret letter. "
