第189章 拱火(一更)
慕容阳简直要气死了,立刻紧跟着起身:“陛下,犬子疏于管教,让您见笑了,微臣这就带他回去,好好反省!”

说着,他就要过去拉慕容晔离开。

穆武帝却抬了下手:“慕容爱卿不必紧张,他的性子朕也了解,今日既然敢为叶恒求情,想来是有证据的,且听他说个仔细。”

这话落下,慕容晔打了个激灵,脑子瞬间清醒。

证据?

他哪里有什么证据?
不过是因为心疼叶诗娴,想尽快救叶恒出来,他才一时上头,说出了刚才那番话!

可现在醒悟过来也晚了,慕容晔进退两难,额头冒出阵阵冷汗。

整个大殿安静得落针可闻,所有目光都集中到了慕容晔身上。

慕容晔绞尽脑汁,终于开口,只是声音不似之前中气十足了。

“陛下,其、其实我没……”

突然,一直作壁上观的齐王不紧不慢地开了口。

“阿晔,别紧张,若你知道内情,尽管一五一十讲出来便是,父皇英明,自会还叶恒大人一个公道。”

慕容晔一愣,下意识朝着那边看去。

齐王不动声色地颔首。

慕容晔顿时感觉安心了许多。

——他怎么忘了,叶恒是齐王的人!

这几年叶恒顺风顺水,背后可没少靠齐王的助推。

如今叶恒出事,齐王肯定不会冷眼旁观!
这么一想,慕容晔最后的那点犹豫和紧张也烟消云散。

他双手抱拳,一字一句道:“陛下,我手里并没有直接的证据,能证明叶大人的清白,但这件事从头到尾都十分古怪,很难不让人起疑,苏圩大人如今所言也都只是推测,不是吗?”

苏圩目视前方,神色漠然,似乎不为所动。

慕容晔继续道:

“叶大人毕竟是大理寺少卿,苏大人就这样当众把人带走关起来,未免太不合适。若之后叶大人清白无罪,得以放出,又该如何给众人交代和解释?那未免——也太过儿戏!”

苏圩听到这,忽然冷笑了一声。

“不知慕容公子这信心是从何而来,如今一切结果未出,慕容公子就能断定他叶恒没问题?”

“我当然——”

“阿晔!”

慕容阳一声高喝,脸色已是铁青。

慕容晔心头猛地跳了一下,这才终于咽回剩下的话,有些错愕不解地回头看向自己父亲。

他只是为叶恒说了两句话,父亲何至于此?

没等他想明白,便突然听到右前方传来一道低沉悦耳的嗓音。

“想不到,慕容公子还有这样未卜先知的本事,叶恒的事尚在调查,慕容公子便断定他清白无辜,必能出来了。”

沈延川薄唇微挑,似笑非笑。

“那,慕容公子不如也替本世子算上一算——前几日在乌岚山,想要本世子命的人,究竟是谁?”

偌大的大殿顷刻间寂静至极,所有的声音都瞬间消弭。

众人惊在当场,慕容晔也蒙了——他怎么也没想到,沈延川竟会突然开口,横插一脚!
慕容晔额头冒冷汗:

“世子开玩笑了,我怎么会知道这个……”

侯爷的掌心娇是朵黑心莲
Author:

Heir of a traditional medical family, Ye Chutang rolled through life for a lifetime, only to unexpectedly die just as she was about to inherit. Reborn, she only wanted to be a slacker and live a carefree life. Unexpectedly, at the beginning, she suffered a critical blow: her parents and eldest brother were assassinated, leaving her with three younger siblings. The third brother was seriously injured, the fourth brother was in a coma, and there was also a baby crying for milk. She weighed the cold steamed bun in her hand, looked despairingly at the sky, and thought that managing three at once was worse than starting over. The little baby tugged at her pant leg. "Hungry." Ye Chutang: "..." Get up and work! ...Ye Chutang’s plan was perfect; once she raised the children, she could retire and enjoy her later years. Yet, a man had different intentions. "Miss Ye, after all these years, shouldn't there be an explanation?" Ye Chutang: "6." You used to linger at my doorstep and now it’s my fault? ... The Ye family was impressive: Ye Sanlang was the top scholar of the current dynasty, Ye Si-lang had made great military achievements in the northwest, and Ye Wu girl had a commercial empire rivaling the rich and powerful. Only Ye Er-girl was busy raising her younger siblings, unknowingly aging and facing difficulties in marriage. Until one day, the powerful Duke of Dingbei, Shen Yanchaun, arrived with a bridal procession ten miles long to welcome her. Ye Chutang remained silent for a long time. "This time, you take care of the kids."
