In the Xuanzheng Palace, Chu Tianze and the hundred officials completed another round of political discussions, but they still didn't see Chu Tianyou bring people back. Although everyone is calm on the surface, they are a little anxious in their hearts, and it is the first time that they have been in the early dynasty for such a long time.

"It seems that Yan Qing hides people enough to hide!" Chu Tianze said with a smile, "He is really conscientious and meticulous!"

Yan Yi heard Chu Tianze's appreciation, and was secretly happy in his heart, hoping to gain the emperor's trust in one fell swoop.

"The emperor praised it falsely, it is all within the minister's responsibility, and it should be so. Yan Yi said and glanced at Guan Zhiyuan, and said contemptuously, "As the minister is the secretary of the Criminal Department, this matter of strictly investigating the criminal and making every effort to ensure the safety of witnesses should be the most important." Unlike some people......"

Guan Zhiyuan frowned, what did this imply to him? It's just that the Qing is self-purifying, and before there is no evidence to accuse him and no witnesses to confront him, he doesn't want to waste his lips and tongue to have a senseless dispute with Yan Yi.

"Fennei?" ......" Chu Tianze raised his eyebrows and looked at Yan Yi, "That's a good thing to say!"

Yan Yi was looked at like this by Chu Tianze, and suddenly felt a little depressed...... There seems to be something in this, could it be that the emperor already suspects him and even knows everything? No, no, no, Yan Yi took a deep breath and secretly comforted himself: Don't scare yourself, the emperor can't know, otherwise he won't wait until now!

At this time, a guard hurriedly reported: "Back to the emperor, His Royal Highness King Ning has arrived at the gate of the palace." ”

"Okay!" Chu Tianze paused, and suddenly added: "You guys, you're all ready!"

Yan Yi panicked when he heard this, obviously everything was planned, and it must be foolproof, but he was confused at this time. He had a bad feeling that things might not turn out the way he had envisioned. What he was most worried about now was the most important move he had arranged before, that is, the "human witness"! When he discussed and planned before, the confrontation he had envisaged was in the Criminal Department or the Dali Temple, and he never expected it to be in the Xuanzheng Palace. I don't know if the "human witness" will say something wrong in this court. Under the power of heaven and before the palace is full of smart people, you must not show a trace of horse's feet!

And Guan Zhiyuan still looks calm. In fact, when he was first accused by Yan Yi, he was still a little surprised. He has no dealings with him in general, and he has never had any bad dealings, so it stands to reason that he has no reason to frame himself! He is not afraid that he will really be wrongfully convicted because of this, he believes in the laws of the imperial court, and also believes in the emperor's wise decision, and will not let him bear the stigma in vain. He is not worried about Chen Yan, even if he can't prove his innocence immediately, he will not be convicted immediately, his wife will not be implicated outside the palace, and the truth will always come out when it is verified later. The only thing that worries him is Guanguan. Now that Guanguan is in the palace, if she knows about the affairs of the court, she will definitely be worried; the palace is full of people, and there must be few bitter words; and the emperor ...... Alas, it is not easy for her to survive in the harem, and if today's events spread, I am afraid it will be even more difficult......

Chu Tianze observed everyone. Glancing at Yan Yi and then at Guan Zhiyuan, Chu Tianze smiled. The reactions of the two were very different. Yan Yi, who was the whistleblower, looked worried and nervous at this time, while the reported official Zhiyuan looked calm and calm.

"Brother Huang, the witness is here! Waiting outside the hall at this moment. Chu Tianyou led the first Diantong to report.

"Pass!" Chu Tianze gave an order, sonorous and powerful!

The witness was brought into the Xuanzheng Palace. Looking at the cautious appearance, it was obviously the first time to see so many big people, and I was nervous and scared......

When the man entered the temple, he hung his head and searched the temple with his eyes, without making the slightest movement for a long time.

Chu Tianze looked at the man, the corners of his lips hooked slightly.

"Be bold, don't meet the emperor yet!" Yan Yi yelled at the stunned person standing in the hall. How did he find such a cowardly and fearful person who had never seen the world! I just hope that for a while I won't give him nonsense and ruin his business!

When the man heard Yan Yi's voice, he was overjoyed and looked up. He had secretly searched for a long time and didn't see Yan Yi, but he was in a hurry, and now that he saw an acquaintance, he was a little more settled.

"What are you looking at me for? Don't you see the emperor yet!" Yan Yi was so anxious that he stepped forward to wake him up!

"Oh oh!" The man came back to his senses at this time, and knelt down to Chu Tianze, who was sitting on the top seat, and said: "The villain is rich and noble, see the emperor, long live the emperor, long live, long live!"

Chu Tianze smiled: "It seems that this person only has Yan Qing in his eyes, and he doesn't even pay attention to me......"

Yan Yi was so frightened that he was half dead in fright, he really wanted to be killed by this rich and noble! Yan Yi hurriedly pleaded guiltily and said: "The emperor forgives the sin, this person is just an ordinary small person, he has never seen the world, and he will inevitably lose the rules under the emperor's heavenly authority." ”

Chu Tianze was noncommittal to Yan Yi's words. He looked at His Highness's wealth and said coldly, "Raise your head!"

Hearing this, the rich man looked at Yan Yi nervously, and Yan Yi desperately glanced at him and asked him to look at Chu Tianze. Fugui hesitated for a long time, and looked at Chu Tianze tremblingly. But as soon as he met Chu Tianze's eyes, he was so frightened that he quickly took it back. The eyes were sharp as if they could see through him, and he really didn't dare to look at him again.

Chu Tianze raised his eyebrows, and he didn't force him anymore. cut to the chase and asked in a cold voice: "Can you testify that Zhiyuan is suspected of participating in the case of Beidi?"

"Yes, yes, the villain can prove it!" Fugui nodded desperately, at a loss for what to do. This is what Yan Yi discussed with him earlier, as long as he follows this routine, he can answer everything fluently!

Yan Yi breathed a little on the side, not too stupid.

"Hmm. Chu Tianze glanced at Yan Yi, then at Fugui, and smiled, "This official Zhiyuan is among the hundred officials in the palace, you find him out for me." ”

Fugui was stunned when he heard this, and looked at Yan Yi for help. Yan Yi was in a hurry, and desperately looked in the direction of Guan Zhiyuan, but the rich and noble were so stupid that he couldn't comprehend the slightest. Yan Yi secretly blamed himself for his carelessness, he thought that he was in the Criminal Department or in the lobby of Dali Temple to let the rich accuser Zhiyuan, where do you need to recognize people, but the situation is completely different at this time!

"What's the matter, you can't even recognize people?" Chu Tianze's voice was a little colder.

When Na Fugui heard such a cold voice, he was so frightened that he almost knelt down without legs. Seeing this, Yan Yi hurriedly said: "Back to the emperor, the witnesses have not seen Guan Zhiyuan himself, and they are all messages transmitted through letters and informants......"

"Yes, yes, I haven't seen Guan Zhiyuan!" Fugui hurriedly responded.

Seeing this, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty couldn't help but cast contemptuous eyes at Fugui, in fact, since he entered the palace, his cowering and timid appearance was already disgusting......

"That's it......" Chu Tianze smiled again, "Okay, I will let Guan Zhiyuan confront you." (To be continued.) )
