There are clues to the arson case, the murderer turned out to be the prince of the imperial court, such appalling news will inevitably set off an uproar in the court again, but what everyone did not expect is that the reason why King Rui set fire to the building and destroyed people was because King Rui colluded with the Lingshan Gang to try to seek power and usurp the throne, and then turned his face and did not recognize people because of a disagreement. And King Rui was finally imprisoned in a prison by order of Emperor Liang Yinhao.

After King Rui was imprisoned, although everyone was suspicious, it was a matter of rebellion, and no one dared to stand up for King Rui first. Even Wei Ming, who has always been upright, was persuaded by Zhou Wenxin, for the very simple reason that now all the evidence is not favorable to King Rui, and rashly opening his mouth to intercede will not only cause trouble, but will also make the emperor more suspicious of King Rui. After a few thoughts, no matter how unwilling Wei Ming was, he finally endured it.

Although Emperor Liang Yinhao imprisoned King Rui, he had not yet issued a decree to sentence, on the one hand, Liang Yinhuan was a prince after all, and he could not be killed if he said that he would be killed. On the other hand, considering that this matter could not be completed by King Rui alone, Liang Yinhao hoped to use this incident to find out more officials with bad intentions in the court and catch them all. And Qiao Yuanshan pinched Liang Yinhao's thoughts, so he took the initiative to go to the prison to visit King Rui in person, and tried to find out some useful information from his mouth, and it was best to get the list of other people involved in the case from King Rui's mouth.

In the dark and damp cell, Liang Yinhuan sat quietly in the corner, still wearing the clothes he wore in the Qinzheng Palace that day, although the clothes were a little wrinkled and messy, but he couldn't desecrate the noble and indifferent aura on his body.

The cell door was suddenly opened, making a sharp and piercing sound, Liang Yinhuan looked up, only to see Qiao Yuanshan holding a food box and a pot of wine in his hand, swaggering in, the smugness and ridicule in his eyes were so obvious that people could not ignore it.

Qiao Yuanshan found a clean place opposite King Rui and sat down, and said with a smirk: "Your Highness has been wronged in the past two days, and the lower official has brought some wine and food, although it can't be compared with the delicious food in King Rui's mansion, but it is better than the food in prison." Your Highness, try it while it's hot. ”

"General Qiao condescended to such an unlucky place, wouldn't it be as simple as sending some wine and food to this king?!" Liang Yinhuan didn't mean to reach out to take the wine glass, just stared at the other party coldly, and mocked, "General Qiao has anything to say!" ”

"Your Highness, don't overcomplicate things." Qiao Yuanshan smiled extremely treacherously, and said, "Xia Guan has not been in Beijing for a long time, I wanted to come back to His Highness this time to have a good gathering, but I didn't want this kind of thing to happen, it's a pity!" ”

"Hahaha" Liang Yinhuan sneered, "General Qiao is really good at joking, this king has never heard of anyone talking about the old in the cell." ”

Qiao Yuanshan didn't care at all about the other party's ridicule, and continued to say hypocritically: "Although the lower official is not a close friend of His Royal Highness, he can be regarded as having known each other for many years, and now seeing His Highness's appearance is really heartbreaking!" ”

Liang Yinhuan didn't bother to go around in circles with this person again, and directly pierced the window paper. "General Bridge is here to trick me, right? It's not enough to frame me alone, who else do you want to push into the water? ”

"Your Highness laughed, and the lower officials didn't understand what you said." Qiao Yuanshan is worthy of being an out-and-out old fox like Huo Pei'an, he pretended to be stupid and said, "But Your Highness can make such a big move with the Lingshan Gang this time, which makes the lower officials impressed!" ”

Liang Yinhuan looked at Qiao Yuanshan silently for a long time, then suddenly grinned and said, "General Qiao's words are not understood by this king, I have never heard of the Lingshan Gang, let alone dealing with these people in the rivers and lakes." ”

Qiao Yuanshan poured himself a glass of wine and muttered: "There are all the human and material evidence, Your Highness doesn't have to hide anything at this time, right?" ”

Liang Yinhuan narrowed his eyes slightly, and his eyes became colder and colder. "You know better than anyone how this so-called human and physical evidence came from!"

"This human and physical evidence is naturally brought by the Criminal Department." Qiao Yuanshan said slowly, "But I'm afraid that His Highness alone can't set off so many storms, right?" Since the matter has come to such a point, it is better for His Highness to say the names of those people, and maybe the lower officials can persuade the emperor to reduce His Highness's punishment. ”

Liang Yinhuan gritted his teeth, holding an attitude of not admitting it to death. "I never knew any Lingshan Gang, let alone secretly formed a party in the court, so how can I get a list?"

When Qiao Yuanshan saw King Rui's attitude, he immediately changed his tricks, and if the soft one didn't work, the hard one would come. He slowly stood up, paced himself in the not spacious cell, and said seemingly casually: "It doesn't matter if Your Highness doesn't admit it, but," he paused deliberately, and said in a mysterious way, "However, the Lingshan Gang has a lot of power in the rivers and lakes, and His Highness's collusion with them this time is tantamount to secretly training and ambushing the size of an army, and the crime can be tantamount to rebellion!" You also saw the fate of the clouds when they rebelled against each other, Your Highness, is it true that Your Highness is not afraid at all? ”

Liang Yinhuan was not afraid, and asked in a cold voice: "You want to threaten me?" How? Is the emperor going to order me to be killed? ”

Qiao Yuanshan smirked: "I don't dare to threaten, the lower official is just analyzing the current situation and situation for His Highness." Why don't you make a deal with Your Highness, what do you think? ”

Liang Yinhuan knew that Qiao Yuanshan must not have any good intentions when he came today, but he didn't break it down, waiting to see what tricks the other party could play. He asked softly, "What deal does General Qiao want to make with this king?" ”

Qiao Yuanshan saw that King Rui had let down his guard and was walking into his trap step by step. He smiled and said, "Your Highness says a name, even if it's just one, Your Highness can put all the blame on that person's head for Your Highness." When the time comes, tell the emperor that the rebellious minister and thief induced you to join the rabble of the Lingshan Gang. Although it cannot completely clear His Highness's crimes, it will at least be reduced a lot as appropriate. What do you think, Your Highness? ”

"You want me to betray someone else to make a living?" Liang Yinhuan asked in a daze.

"It's just a cooperation based on interests, where can there be anything that can't be betrayed, it's a big disaster, Your Highness should still take care of yourself first."

"This" Liang Yinhuan frowned, pretending to be very embarrassed.

"How? Who is this man? Qiao Yuanshan urged, "Is this person Wei Ming's old man?!" ”

Liang Yinhuan suddenly looked directly at Qiao Yuanshan's anxious eyes, and said, "This person is actually "(To be continued.) )
