The Zhou family, Duke of Zhao Zhou Wu, was not surprised to hear the news and waved: This madman, even the Right Prime Minister and King Huai dared to assassinate him, he deserved it!
Yongping Hou was arrested, which is naturally a good thing for the Zhou family.
He doesn't have to worry about being implicated by Yongping Hou. What really worries him in the past two days is that Tang Ning and King Huai were assassinated. The court will beat Zhou family, Yichun Hou and others indiscriminately.
With His Majesty's emphasis on Tang Ning and King Huai, it is very likely that such a thing will be done.
Now, Yongping Hou was arrested, the truth of the matter was revealed, and the Zhou family can also be freed from the suspicion.
Zhou Wu breathed a sigh of relief and just sat down and was about to have a tea. At this moment, a servant from the Zhou family ran in and said in panic: Master, it’s not good. A group of imperial guards came outside and surrounded us!
Bang!
The teacup in Zhou Wu's hand fell to the ground and fell to pieces. He suddenly stood up and asked: What are the imperial guards doing?
An imperial guard general came in and said: The Marquis of Yongping has confessed. Please ask Duke Zhao and us to return to the Ministry of Justice.
Zhou Wu looked stunned and asked: "What are you asking for confession?"
The general of the Imperial Army said: Duke Zhao and the Marquis of Yichun, Yongping, have been exposed for murdering the Right Prime Minister and King Huai. If you have anything to say, let’s talk about it when you arrive at the Ministry of Justice.
He planned to murder the Right Prime Minister and King Huai... When Zhou Wu heard this, his eyes turned dark and he felt dizzy and said sadly: Marquis Yongping, you are not a person!
At the same time, in the Yichun Marquis' Mansion, the Yichun Marquis looked at the guards outside the door and shouted: This is slander, this is pure slander...
……
Yongping Hou hid for two days, but was still caught
Assassinating the Prime Minister and the Prince, his death sentence could not be escaped. Before he died, he confessed all his accomplices, including Duke Zhao, Marquis of Yichun and others
These people are related to Chen's interests in the new policies and policies of the Western Regions and have great motives for committing crimes. After the confession of the Marquis of Yongping, the Ministry of Justice asked His Majesty for instructions and immediately arrested Duke Zhao, Marquis of Yichun and others. However, these people refused to admit that they were accomplices of Marquis of Yongping and were temporarily detained in the prison of the Ministry of Justice.
In the imperial study room, Emperor Chen looked at Tang Ning and King Huai below and asked: Are you two okay?
King Huai bowed and said: My son is fine
Tang Ning raised his hand and said: I'm fine, I'm fine, either
If you have nothing to do, go to the Shangshu Province to work. Emperor Chen waved his hand and said: Remember to bring more guards when you go out in the future and be careful...
Tang Ning and King Huai walked out of the imperial study room, and a palace maid walked in from outside
When passing by her, Tang Ning paused slightly, frowned and sniffed, then looked back and looked back
King Huai looked at him and said: If Lord Tang likes this palace maid, tell his father, he may give it to you.
Tang Ning realized that his actions just now seemed a bit vulgar. But in the moment just now, he smelled a smell from the palace maid. Although the smell was extremely light, Tang Ning could be sure that it was a certain smell of incense. In order to practice his sense of smell, he smelled countless fragrances, but he had never smelled this incense.
He waved his hand casually and said: I don’t know which spice she used, it smells quite nice...
King Huai smiled and said: There are two errands in the Shangshu Province, one is to investigate the captured Western Regions people in the capital, and the other is to interrogate Duke Zhao and others. Which one is chosen by Lord Tang?
Tang Ning thought about it and said: I'll choose the former.
When the court formulated this rule, some envoys from the Western Regions in the capital also came out to praise the Chen court and request the court to release the captured slaves.
There is no business, there will be no killing. There are many Western Regions in the capital, who exist in the homes of all the powerful and powerful, serving as slaves and servants.
If it were in the past, the court would not have spent so much effort to do this thankless thing
But once and forth, they planned to cooperate with these small Western countries, so they could not ignore their demands. Emperor Chen distributed silver from the inner palace and would redeem the Western slaves from the powerful and powerful families.
Of course, the premise is that they are willing
This matter is relatively simple, because it is the minor officials below who will do it and will not encounter any resistance. If you interrogate Duke Zhao and others, you may not be able to find any results. Tang Ning decisively chose an easy job.
King Huai had no objection to this and nodded: The matter of interrogation will be left to me.
Ministry of Justice Prison
Duke Zhou Wu of Zhao grabbed the railing of the cell, looked at the opposite side, and said angrily: I have no grudges and grudges with you, why do you do this!
A hint of sarcasm appeared on the face of Yongping Hou and said: You are just 100,000 taels, and you don’t want to help me. Are you satisfied now?
Duke Zhao gritted his teeth and said: It’s because of this!
With these 100,000 taels, I will not be forced into this dead end. Yongping Hou looked at him and said: When you borrowed me one thousand taels of silver, I said that you will regret it...
Duke Zhao was furious and said: So you framed us!
I said, we are grasshoppers on the same boat. If I die, don’t even think about living. We walk together on the road to the underworld... Yongping Hou pulled the corner of his mouth and said: Everyone is dead, why don’t I find a few more companions for myself?
Zhao State is righteous: We did not conspire to murder the Right Prime Minister and King Huai!
Yongping Hou sneered and said: Who knows?
Duke Zhao held the fence of the cell and said loudly: Have you heard it? Have you heard it? He is a false accusation, he is a false accusation, come and listen to Ah!
Two prisoners from the Ministry of Justice came over, opened the prison door, and said: Please come with Duke Zhao and us.
Zhou Wu's face changed and he said vigilantly: What are you doing? Do you want to lynch? Let me tell you, I am the queen mother's brother. If you dare to do anything to me, you will be done, and the entire Ministry of Justice is finished...
Zhou Wu was taken to a quiet cell. Looking at the figure in the cell, Zhou Wu was stunned and immediately said: Your Highness, King Huai, I am wronged, I am wronged, how could I make someone assassinate Your Highness, Ah...
King Huai smiled and said: Duke Zhao doesn't have to be afraid. If there is no evidence, I will not make random speculations or wrongly accuse you.
Duke Zhao calmed down and said: That's good, that's good...
King Huai looked at him and asked: What kind of festival does Duke Zhao and Duke Yongping have?
Zhou Wu nodded and said: Yes, he borrowed 100,000 taels of silver from me. I didn’t lend it to him, so he held a grudge. He wanted to die and wanted to bring us together. Your Highness clearly...
The king knew about it. King Huai nodded, asked him a few more questions, and asked the yamen runners from the Ministry of Justice to take him back.
A moment later, the Marquis of Yichun was brought up
After Duke Zhao returned, he was already angry with him, so the Marquis of Yichun was not panicked. He walked into the cell, bowed respectfully, and said: Have you seen His Highness King Huai
King Huai looked at him and said: I haven't seen you for many years, and the Marquis of Yichun is much more haggard than before.
The Marquis of Yichun laughed dryly and said: Your Highness is getting more and more heroic, we are old...
King Huai sighed and said: When I first met Marquis of Yichun, you were still an imperial physician in the palace. In a blink of an eye, so many years have passed, and you have been appointed as Marquis for so many years...
The Marquis of Yichun said: It’s all your Majesty’s love
No
King Huai shook his head and said: You exchanged this title with medical skills. When the crown prince, Yang Concubine, and the queen were seriously ill, you were treating it. My father really trusted you very much...
When the Marquis of Yichun heard this, his body shook and his pupils shrank suddenly
Yongping Hou was arrested, which is naturally a good thing for the Zhou family.
He doesn't have to worry about being implicated by Yongping Hou. What really worries him in the past two days is that Tang Ning and King Huai were assassinated. The court will beat Zhou family, Yichun Hou and others indiscriminately.
