第190章 怀疑(一更)
“怎么,叶大人的事儿慕容公子能知道,本世子的就不能了?”沈延川转了转手中的茶杯,微微一笑,眸光却清冽淡漠到了极点,“慕容公子,可不能厚此薄彼啊。”

慕容晔只觉周身寒意阵阵。

到了这个时候,他才猛然意识到自己之前的那些话有多么冒失愚蠢!

——他再想帮叶诗娴,再想救叶恒出来,都必须得手握证据才行!
口说无凭,所有的辩解都是天大的笑话,尤其还是当着陛下与群臣之面!
慕容晔脸色发白,结结巴巴:“我、我不是那个意思,我没有——”

穆武帝高坐上首,面色冷沉。

“说起这件事,朕倒是也问问,幕后之人怎么还未找到?”

他压低了嗓音,带着显而易见的压抑的怒意。

如贵妃眼眸闪了闪,连忙劝道:“陛下,这种事情调查起来向来麻烦,短短几天就要查个一清二楚,着实是有些为难了……”

穆武帝这次却并未过多理会她的话,直接看向了萧成煊,眼中带着显而易见的不满与责备。

“老二,延川遇刺的时候你也在,难道你也没有什么线索?”

穆武帝的这位二皇子,也算挺有能力,平日里做什么都十分出色,唯独这一次,萧成煊就在现场,居然没能找出一星半点的消息?

萧成煊也听懂了穆武帝话中的未尽之意,但一时之间也想不出什么应对的话术,只得惭愧垂首:“听说那日前去之人都是死士,儿臣也数次尝试抓人,想要审问一二,可惜都以失败告终。儿臣无能,还请父皇降罪!”

穆武帝当然不会因为这件事降罪于他,然而如贵妃心里却很是不快。

以往萧成煊处处尽心尽力,好不容易才得陛下几分赞赏,如今来了这么一出,陛下心有不满,之前的努力不都白费了?
如贵妃为穆武帝甄了一杯酒,柔声劝道:“陛下,这事急不来,最要紧的是人没事儿,这比什么都强不是吗?想想也知道那等场面何其凶残,幸而定北侯世子福泽深厚,安然无恙,成煊也只是受了一点轻伤。要是真出了什么事儿,那可真是后悔都来不及了。”

她轻轻拍了拍胸口,掩唇笑道:“说来,还有那位叶家二小姐,也是个福大命大的。不过是上山去上个香,就被无辜卷入这场风波里。还好最后化险为夷,平安归来了。”

一番话柔声细语,挑不出错来,却让人忍不住想起了叶初棠,同时不约而同冒出同样的疑问。

——对啊!那天叶初棠怎么会那么赶巧,就出现在了那里!?

大殿之内陷入短暂的安静。

沁阳郡主忽然道:“想不到贵妃娘娘对初棠也这般在意。”

如贵妃一愣,没想到沁阳郡主会插话,但很快便调整好表情,笑道:“毕竟是长公主夸赞过的一等一的女子,本宫上次见她也很是喜欢,自然多上心些。

沁阳郡主唇角勾起:“哦?这样说来,关于她的那些传言,贵妃娘娘一定也听过了?”

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."
