Chapter 272: Forbearance
The hall suddenly fell silent, and the falling needles could be heard. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The prince knelt silently on the ground, his lowered eyes full of hatred.
Emperor Jiayou is already like this, but I didn't expect Song Yanzhao to still chase after him, this Song Yanzhao is really hateful!
There was also an accident in Emperor Jiayou, Song Yanzhao didn't go to court for many days, and he knew that he was avoiding him, but if this matter was not closed for a day, his heart was always hanging.
In order to avoid long nights and dreams, Emperor Jiayou ordered Song Yanzhao to go to the court today, and quickly cut through the chaos.
As long as the tone of this matter has been set, Song Yanzhao naturally can't tell the truth anymore, and even if he tells the truth, without hard evidence, no one believes him!
Emperor Jiayou thought about it clearly, Song Yanzhao has been stubborn since he was a child, and if he was allowed to take the initiative to bow his head and close the case according to his own will, it would definitely not work, so he could only use the trick of seizing people to force him to comply.
It's just that I didn't expect that when things came to this point, Song Yanzhao still refused to give in and insisted on investigating the truth of the matter.
Emperor Jiayou sighed, a little regretful that the scene he had just played to question the prince was too realistic, causing the courtiers to think that he was going to punish the prince, and they all stood up to plead, but instead gave Song Yanzhao a breakthrough.
He looked at Song Yanzhao with a calm face, and asked Song Yanzhao clearly with displeased eyes, does this have to be the case?
Song Yanzhao gave him a firm look back.
Maybe he didn't think it was worth sticking to before, but in the past six months, he has experienced a lot of things and understood a lot of truths, and when the miserable bones were placed in front of him, Song Yanzhao's deep sense of responsibility was awakened.
In this matter, he will not give up the pursuit easily.
Justice for the dead and the truth for the matter, this is the promise he made to those bones.
Emperor Jiayou saw that Song Yanzhao was unmoved, and his face suddenly became gloomy.
"Haven't you already checked out this matter and reported it to me?" Emperor Jiayou retracted his gaze and looked at the crown prince, his brows furrowed deeply, "Why?
The crown prince suddenly understood what Emperor Jiayou meant, he turned to look at Song Yanzhao with a painful expression, "Yanzhao, don't say it, I understand what you mean." ”
Song Yanzhao's complexion changed suddenly.
"Actually, what my father said is right, the sons of this matter do not justify, Zhao Yang is guilty, the sons are also guilty, and the rest of the sons are not strict, causing him to commit such a heinous crime, and please ask my father to punish the sons!"
"Yan Zhao, you don't have to insist on continuing to investigate in order to protect me, what my father said is right, this matter is also a lesson for me, and I need to be more cautious in selecting and employing people in the future. ”
Song Yanzhao stared at the prince in disbelief, not understanding how a person could be so shameless, he was obviously trying to find out the truth, but the prince said that he was trying to protect him.
Emperor Jiayou secretly breathed a sigh of relief, glad that the prince was still clever at the critical moment, and it was not in vain that he worked hard to plan for him.
"You also know that Yan Zhao is to protect you," Emperor Jiayou glared at the prince angrily, "You, I should really thank Yan Zhao, if it wasn't for protecting you, where would he have delayed this case for so long before reporting it, now that Zhao Yang has committed suicide in fear of crime and died in prison, Yan Zhao is afraid that this matter will implicate you, I don't know how anxious I am." ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at Song Yanzhao's eyes and suddenly realized.
No wonder Song Yanzhao stopped talking just now, and kept insisting that there were doubts about the matter, it turned out that he was afraid that His Majesty would blame His Royal Highness the Prince.
The crown prince kowtowed again, "What my father said is right, my son is hard to escape the blame, although I don't kill Boren, but Boren died because of me, this case is over, my son is willing to bear the responsibility, please punish my father." ”
The courtiers who stood up to intercede for the prince just now pleaded for another time.
Song Yanzhao watched from the side, only feeling that all this was ridiculous and pathetic.
He subconsciously touched the blood book on his chest and pursed his lips, knowing that now was definitely not a good time to take him out.
Now that he takes out the blood book, it will only cause Emperor Jiayou to be angry, and in front of the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military forces, he will inevitably give a high-sounding rhetoric.
This argument is nothing more than Zhao Yang framing the prince, or he bent into a trick to force Zhao Yang to frame the prince.
No matter which of these two arguments he is, he can't please him, and it is even possible that Emperor Jiayou will take the opportunity to attack himself and send other people to investigate the case.
Song Yanzhao clenched his fists tightly.
The sixth prince standing next to him persuaded him in a low voice, "Don't be impulsive, just bear with it for the time being, there will always be a day when things will come to light." ”
Song Yanzhao turned his head and looked at him deeply, nodded silently, and then looked coldly at Emperor Jiayou to reprimand the prince sternly, and then announced the conviction of Zhao Yang and the punishment of the Zhao clan.
Zhao Yang has committed suicide in fear of crime, his wives and concubines and children have all been demoted to official slaves, and all the men of the Zhao family in the court have been dismissed and demoted to commoners.
After this incident, the Zhao family completely disappeared in Jinling.
The previous dynasty was convicted, and the harem knew the news, Queen Qin sat silently for a long time, and then sighed often, and instructed the prince, "The Zhao family is the in-laws of the Qin family after all, and I told the people of the Qin family to take care of one or two secretly, don't let them live too miserably." ”
The prince nodded perfunctorily, the Zhao family is over, and there will be no more help for him, and he doesn't want to waste energy on the Zhao family.
Empress Qin looked at him absent-mindedly, did not wrinkle, and aggravated her tone, "You have a snack on this matter, who knows if Zhao Yang has ever said anything to his family, if they have a grudge against you, I am afraid that it will be bad." ”
After all, there are a lot of people involved in this case, if Zhao Yang inadvertently confided in his family, and the Zhao family saw that only Zhao Yang was convicted of this matter, if he had a grudge against the prince, it would be much more troublesome.
The crown prince understood the meaning of Empress Qin's words at this time, and his expression was grim, "Erchen has written it down, and he will send people to pay more attention to Zhao Yang's family." ”
Empress Qin's face looked better.
"Queen Mother, that Song Yanzhao, have you thought of how to deal with it? Erchen thinks it's better to let him leave Beijing as soon as possible, he is always dangling in front of my eyes, and Erchen's heart has been hanging. The prince asked about Song Yanzhao.
Empress Qin glared at him angrily, "You are the dignified prince of Zhou, what are you afraid of him doing?"
The prince pursed his lips and frowned, "Erchen just felt uneasy inexplicably, and always felt that Song Yanzhao would not give up, so he was afraid that he would provoke other incidents or find out some other clues." ”
The evidence that should have been handled in the Zhang family's case before was handled very properly, and neither the Criminal Department nor the Criminal Department found anything, but Song Yanzhao caught the evidence, which is really evil!
A sneer appeared at the corner of Empress Qin's mouth, "Don't worry, the queen mother knows this matter, you don't have to worry about it, within ten days, your father will definitely send him out of Jinling." ”
