The first birth of the red sun, Chang'an Heavenly Prison, the dead man who assassinated the Xiangguo of the dynasty on the street could not stand the punishment and had confessed.

Zhang Sizhi of Dali Temple took the confession, swept the prison guards on both sides, and said, "It's hard work." ”

"Childe said, it's you who works hard. I haven't slept all night, I'm afraid that the East Palace will be summoned again. Although we are exhausted, we can go home and sleep when the task is completed and the sun rises. One of the jailers laughed, a dark blue flame rising from his fingertips, turning the butterflies flying in the prison to ashes.

"Yes. Zhang Sizhi smiled rarely, and said to the two, "Then I'll leave first." ”

"Go, go. The two jailers waved their hands and motioned for him to hurry up.

Zhang Sizhi walked out of the prison, and a round of red sun illuminated Chang'an with dazzling light. The old servant who was waiting outside the door for a long time saw him, cheered up, and asked with concern, "Childe, where are we going?"

The old servant raised him, and even though he is now an official and is not young, he has always called him Gongzi.

He looked at him distressedly, shook his head, and said, "You go home first, and I'll go to see Your Majesty." ”

When the old servant heard this, he stubbornly said, "I'm waiting for the son." I'm afraid that others won't be able to lead Xiaofeng. ”

Zhang Sizhi smiled bitterly, and only followed the old servant. The old servant hurriedly and happily went to lead the horse. Zhang Sizhi sat on the horse with a solemn expression. In his arms was the confession of a prisoner, involving the patriarch of the most powerful family in the dynasty, the Sun family.

The eldest grandson Wuji is the uncle of the dynasty, the brother of the queen, and the friend and confidant of the Son of Heaven.

What will be the attitude of the Son of Heaven towards the eldest grandson, and what should he do to complete the task of the son?

Last night, he was interrogated in the prison, and Gongzi personally sent a thief, saying that he was a thief who entered Zhang's mansion to steal secrets. At that time, he and Childe had a secret meeting for several minutes.

"Childe, is this true or false?" he asked. In the past, Gongzi was not in Chang'an, and the Zhang family in Hedong did not make any moves, so he could be his chief with peace of mind and only try the case. However, the son came and said that the Zhang family had been dormant for a long time, and it was time to make a move.

"How you usually do it, how to do it now. Childe's eyes were calm.

"Then, if it's true, it's scary—" Zhang Sizhi asked cautiously.

"What is your purpose in being a magistrate, isn't it to uphold the law, to protect the weak, and to allow justice to be done?" Childe gave him a blank look, and then threw him the names of the two jailers.

He looked at the name and knew that these two people were also disciples of the Zhang family, and he was afraid that they were masters of interrogation.

"Childe-" Zhang Si looked directly at Childe, who turned to leave, and shouted.

"What's wrong?" Childe turned around with a cold expression.

"Zhang, aren't you afraid of being the enemy of anyone, right?" Zhang Si asked directly.

Childe stood in the shadow of the high walls of the prison, and there was a glimmer of sky outside, and a quiet moonlight was sprinkled down. He was silent for a moment and said, "The Zhang family, why be afraid?"

"But—"

He thought of a girl's face, and blurted out the word "but", Gongzi had used many abilities in the family to help this girl, and even asked him to go to Hongnong Yang to protect her in person.

However, he couldn't ask, and Childe's face was even more indifferent in the moonlight.

"But what?" he asked.

Zhang Sizhi felt creepy, but he still stiffened his head and said, "What if it's the Yang family's sixth room?"

"The six houses of the Yang family benefit all the people and are the blessings of the world. The Zhang clan in Hedong should guard peace and protect the people. Childe replied calmly.

"Keep peace, protect all the people, Hedong Zhang's family, why be afraid?" Zhang Sizhi muttered.

"Good. After Childe finished speaking, he turned to leave, and the footsteps were so soft that he was silent.

Although with the help of Hedong Zhang's hypnosis and prison masters, after so many prisoners were interrogated one by one, it was still daylight.

Zhang Sizhi dismounted at the gate of the palace, told the old servant to use water and food, and waited for him in the shade. He tidied up his clothes and strode towards the Taiji Palace.

This time, the sun is already high, and the morning has already fallen. His Majesty had already moved to the Hall of Manna to deal with political affairs there.

He held the sign of entry and exit, and went all the way to the outside of the Manna Hall to ask for an audience. The chamberlain soon summoned him in, and he knelt down and saluted, saying, "Your Majesty, this is the result of an overnight interrogation. ”

He raised the confession in his hand above his head with both hands, and the chamberlain hurriedly came over to take the confession paper, and tested it for poison or hidden mysteries.

His Majesty said in a tired tone: "Zhang Aiqing, it's hard work, let's get even." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for not working hard. He said politely, then stood up.

"Take a seat for Zhang Aiqing. His Majesty said.

He said that he was afraid, but when the emperor looked at the seat, he still sat on the seat given by the emperor.

Several attendants and healers on the side finished the examination and offered the mouthful. His Majesty looked at it with a solemn face, and the more he looked at it, the tighter his brow tightened. Zhang Sizhi lowered his eyes, he could memorize these confessions word for word, and even the place where he signed and drew the confession, he could remember.

Although these confessions did not directly point to the eldest grandson Wuji, they clearly pointed to the four rooms of the eldest grandson's family. Why did the four rooms of the eldest grandson family take the risk to do this, he did not find out. These people only confessed that it was the old lady of the fourth room who told them to find information related to the Dugu clan and seize the top-secret information in Fang Xuanling's hands.

And this confession is obviously logically problematic. Because whether it is the Hedong Zhang family or the Xiangguo Fang Xuanling, even if they really have top-secret information about the Dugu clan in their hands, even if they can use these materials to find the legendary shocking wealth. But it's not enough to look for an opportunity to grab it, why should you be so blatant and in such a hurry?

Or is it that the eldest grandson clan has been rampant to the point where they are not afraid of death?

Zhang Sizhi couldn't figure it out with that confession, but this was the unanimous confession of those dead soldiers.

What was wrong with this, what was the secret? He couldn't figure it out.

After reading more than a dozen confessions, Li Shimin also asked this question.

Zhang Sizhi shook his head very sincerely and said, "Back to Your Majesty, the minister is also puzzled. ”

"Chuan Changsun Wuji came to ask. Li Shimin sighed, and the attendant next to him immediately started to do it. Li Shimin read those confessions over and over again.

In the Ganlu Palace, it was extremely quiet, only the copper kettle made an extremely faint sound, and Zhang Sizhi sat on the seat, feeling that he had sat down as a sculpture.

I don't know how long it took, but the shadows of the windows had moved a little, and finally someone came. However, the person who came was not the eldest grandson Wuji, but the prince who came to report that someone in the palace had poisoned Dugu Sinan.

"Your Majesty, Erchen has thoroughly investigated the palace, and after preliminary screening, the poisoning is a bit eyebrow-raising. The prince said.

Li Shimin buried his head in watching the folds, and said without raising his head: "I want solid evidence, don't talk about it with some eyebrows." ”

"Back to Your Majesty, Erchen shouldn't have come to bother, but although this matter is a bit eyebrow-raising, it involves a wide range of things, and Erchen has to come to tell you. The prince whispered, and looked at Zhang Sizhi.

"Zhang Sizhi is investigating the case thoroughly, so he doesn't have to avoid it. Li Shimin said bluntly.

The prince nodded and said, "Then the minister said it directly." When the case was thoroughly investigated, it was discovered that the person who had poisoned him was dead. However, a lot of the evidence has not yet been disposed of. After all, Dugu Sinan entered the palace suddenly, and their plan was also improvised, not thorough. So, Erchen investigated thoroughly and found out a suspect. After review, she recruited. ”

"Recruited?" Li Shimin was very surprised, looked at the child incredulously, and suddenly felt a little trance, how did he feel that this child was still the newborn appearance of Chengqian Palace, and why did he suddenly grow up.

"Yes, it's called, it's an order from outside, that is, to destroy Dugu Sinan. As for which one is outside, who is her wire. Erchen checked and found the Lizheng Palace——, so he came to ask his father. Li Chengqian's voice lowered, and he didn't dare to say any more.

Zhang Sizhi was also stunned, this palace is the residence of the queen. Could it be that the queen is also involved in this matter?

"Daring, that's your mother, the queen of the world. She is a person, do you still have to hesitate and doubt?" Li Shimin shouted angrily.
