Emperor Jiayou turned his eyes away from Song Yanzhao. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Do you still remember the murder of Zhang Wenbo's family in Jiangning County two years ago?"
As soon as Emperor Jiayou said, a low voice of discussion suddenly sounded in the hall.
Although more than two years have passed, most people have not forgotten this case, after all, Jinling is at the foot of the Son of Heaven, and Jiangning is the richest county in Jinling.
The Zhang family is full of more than 20 lives, and I heard that even the elderly and young children have not been spared, and the murderer is simply crazy.
The Zhang family blood case was a sensation at the time, and Emperor Jiayou ordered the Criminal Department to strictly investigate the case, but the Criminal Department investigated and investigated for more than half a year, but found nothing.
In the end, I heard that the case was transferred to the Criminal Division.
There are too many new things that happen in Jinling City every day, and after a long time, many people gradually stop paying attention to this matter and gradually forget it.
After all, the most thing in Jinling City is to talk about.
"Your Majesty is saying that the Shen Criminal Division has cracked this case?" Youyu Shi immediately stood up and asked Emperor Jiayou.
Emperor Jiayou nodded, "Yes, after several months of investigation, the Shen Criminal Division has finally clarified the case......
"Your Majesty!" Song Yanzhao strode out from among the courtiers and interrupted Emperor Jiayou in a loud voice.
Emperor Jiayou stared at Song Yanzhao with a displeased face, his eyes narrowed slightly, and there was a deep warning in his eyes.
Song Yanzhao only felt a surge of qi and blood.
He will come to the court today, so he is naturally mentally prepared.
But he didn't expect Emperor Jiayou to not ask him, but directly announced that this was not to give him a chance to speak, for fear that he would say superfluous words.
Song Yanzhao took a deep breath, "Your Majesty, this case has not been fully investigated, and there are still some doubts that need to be reconfirmed...... ”
Emperor Jiayou waved his hand to interrupt him, "Yan Zhao, I know what you're worried about, but this case is an extremely bad murder case, even at the feet of the Son of Heaven, he dares to kill the officials of the imperial court, and he also destroys all people, so he must be punished with a felony." ”
After that, before Song Yanzhao could speak, Emperor Jiayou angrily threw the book and smashed it to the prince standing below.
"Prince, take a good look at what your East Palace subordinates have done?"
It smashed straight at the prince, hit the prince's forehead with a snap, and then fell at the prince's feet.
All the ministers were a little stunned by Emperor Jiayou's blow.
What Emperor Jiayou meant by his words, was the bloody case of the Zhang family's destruction implicated in the prince's East Palace?
The crown prince was also a little flustered, and he didn't understand Emperor Jiayou's intentions, didn't Emperor Jiayou personally promise to let Song Yanzhao close the case two days ago? Why did he suddenly attack him today?
The prince's hand was a little trembling and picked up the recital on the ground, and when he opened it, it was the recital of the recommended privy envoy he handed over.
The prince closed the fold and looked up at Emperor Jiayou in confusion, but saw Emperor Jiayou staring at him with anger on his face.
"Your Donggong subordinate official Zhao Yang actually accepted a huge bribe from Zhang Wenbo, but he didn't help him promote his official position according to Zhang Wenbo's request, and after the matter was revealed, he was afraid that Zhang Wenbo would leak the matter, so he killed people," Emperor Jiayou said and slapped the dragon case heavily, "He is so bold, who gave him the guts? Say, does this matter have anything to do with you?"
This is not at all the same as the truth he told Emperor Jiayou before?
The prince was confused for a moment, and after hearing Emperor Jiayou's angry questioning, he suddenly blessed his soul and understood what Emperor Jiayou meant, and he knelt on the ground with a plop.
"Father, the son is wronged, the son doesn't know anything about this matter, this, what's going on?"
Emperor Jiayou snorted coldly, and slapped the dragon case again, seemingly very angry, "You don't know? Zhao Yang is your subordinate official of the East Palace, and he acts under your nose on weekdays, and he has done such a heartbreaking thing, you haven't heard of it at all?"
The prince slammed on the ground, "Father, the son really doesn't know, although Zhao Yang is a subordinate of the East Palace of the son, but he behaves in front of the son on weekdays, and the son never knew that he had accepted bribes, ask my father to be clear!"
As he spoke, the prince kept kowtowing, and his forehead hit the marble heavily, making a dull sound, and in a moment, the prince's forehead became red and swollen.
Immediately, officials who supported the prince stood up and spoke for the prince.
"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is of good character, he acts very cautiously on weekdays, and he treats people politely, it will definitely not be related to this case!"
"Yes, Your Majesty, the minister also believes that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not be involved in this matter. ”
"Your Majesty, please investigate this matter in detail, and return the prince's innocence!"
Half of the officials in the palace stood up to express their support for the prince, which made the prince kneeling on the ground feel a slight pride in his heart.
Others are either watching or pondering.
Song Yanzhao looked at the situation in front of him, one heart sank to the bottom, and the other heart was cold and astringent.
He didn't expect that Emperor Jiayou would make up another set of rhetoric, accusing Zhao Yangan of murder and killing people for corruption, and even staged such a blatant interrogation scene with the prince in the court for the ministers to see.
Emperor Jiayou has already set the tone for this matter, and Song Yanzhao just wants to stand up and explain the truth, but it is too late, because no one will believe it.
At this moment, Song Yanzhao's heart suddenly surged with a lot of powerlessness, and powerlessness was mixed with faint anger.
He thought of the dozen or so young ladies in Zhangjia Village, who were all in their beautiful youth, and died inexplicably on the hot spring village in Tangshan, and remembered the second uncle's family who had their bones dug up, and they couldn't even live the life of ordinary people, so they were killed.
There are more than 20 lives up and down the Zhang family, I heard that Zhang Xianling's daughter has just turned thirteen years old, a little lady like a flower, and she lost her life in a blink of an eye.
All these fifty or sixty lives add up, and they are not as important as the royal face, the prince's face and status!
If that Zhang County Commander knew that this was His Majesty who had served in the center, what should he feel in his heart?
How should this palace of civil and military officials feel if they knew that His Majesty to whom they were loyal was like this?
The more Song Yanzhao thought about it, the more angry he felt, and he took a step forward, "Your Majesty, the minister also feels that what the adults said just now is reasonable, there are indeed many doubts in this matter, and it must be investigated in detail to restore the innocence of His Royal Highness the Prince." ”
Since Emperor Jiayou said that Zhao Yang was a greedy demon, then he would follow the greedy demon.
"When the Shen Criminal Division arrested Zhao Yang, he searched Zhao Yang's home, and he didn't have a huge amount of property in his family, since he received so much money from the Zhang family, where did the money go now?"
"Although Zhao Yang knows martial arts, but his skills are average, how did he kill more than 20 lives of the Zhang family? ”
Emperor Jiayou didn't expect Song Yanzhao to say such a thing, and his face suddenly sank.
