Emperor Taichang motioned for Liu Tong to sit down, and after a moment of silence, he said: "King Shenjun is still not dead set on the throne, this time he is desperate, I think he is already planning to fight hard." His behavior is equivalent to complicity and rebellion, and King Qi and King Li cannot escape. When the two are captured, the Criminal Department will be tried at a later date, and you are now in charge of the Criminal Department, what are your views on this matter? ”

Liu Tong was silent for a while, and then said softly: "What does the imperial brother mean?" ”

Emperor Taichang hooked the corners of his mouth: "My father's last words are all worried about the royal brothers' fratricide. If you want to talk about filial piety, you must let them live. But if Israel ***, they will inevitably end up with a family raid and death. ”

Liu Tong bowed his head, looked at Emperor Taichang and said, "Which one does the imperial brother want to talk about?" ”

"What do you think?" Emperor Taichang threw this hot potato to Liu Tong again.

Liu Tong said helplessly: "The younger brother is naturally the first to put the emperor's intentions first. ”

Emperor Taichang looked at him for a while, and then said in a deep voice: "Xiao Jiu, you have answered this wrong. ”

Liu Tong looked at him in surprise.

"Since I have left you in charge of the Criminal Department and opened the door for you to be convenient, so that you can judge the case clearly and make the case clear, I naturally hope that you can engrave the word 'national law' in your heart."

Emperor Taichang stood up slowly, and his title to Liu Tong and himself changed suddenly.

"King Rongjun, I have given you so much trust, how can you return to me, 'put the emperor's will first'?"

Liu Tong suddenly got up, teased his robe and said, "Brother knows his mistake." ”

A smile flashed on Emperor Taichang's face, and he approached and helped him up: "The law of the country cannot be abolished." The Criminal Department is the place where all national laws are most concentrated. You, as the head of the Criminal Department, Xiao Jiu, don't let me down. ”

Liu Tong bowed his head and said, "Brother Chen understands." ”

"Let's go, the palace banquet is about to begin. The good drama planned by King Shenjun is about to be staged. ”

Emperor Taichang walked in front, Liu Tong followed closely behind, and the waves in his heart were tumbling and tumbling.

The emperor's study of the "Great Wei Law" has never stopped, and he once invoked the "Great Wei Law", when the imperial court argued, it was bound to deal with the Yanzhou Qi and Lu families impartially, and there was a fierce war of words with the courtiers.

The word national law, for ordinary people, is a big thing.

But for the children of the royal family and the powerful courtiers, in fact, as long as they get the emperor's wishes, even if they violate the national law, the emperor Chrysostom will be able to complete the things he has committed.

In Chang Runzhi's words, there is a certain rule of law, but more often than not, it is the rule of man. The meaning of the emperor, above all else.

Liu Tong didn't know if Emperor Taichang really wanted to take the lives of King Jun and others, so there was that sentence, "Take the meaning of the imperial brother first".

But now it seems that the emperor's intention is nothing more than to remind him and ask him to deal with it impartially.

Is this out of the law of the land, or is it out of ...... What does the royal brother mean?

It is useless to think too much, but always take the person and then talk about the trial.

Liu Tong put aside the worries in his mind, followed closely after Emperor Taichang, and joined the clansmen.

The voice of the people in the hall is boiling, the sound of pushing the cup and asking the cup is endless, the emperor is smiling and smiling, and the singing and dancing in the field are leveled.

Chang Runzhi sat beside Liu Tong, keenly aware that he seemed to be a little silent.

Chang Runzhi stretched out his hand and pulled him, and asked softly, "What's wrong with you?" There was no smile on his face. ”

Liu Tong smiled: "It's okay, it's just this song and dance or something, I don't think it's interesting." ”

"What you say is really, don't give the queen mother's face." Chang Runzhi said with a smile: "It's the first time that the queen has held such a grand palace banquet, and this song and dance has been chosen for a long time." I look pretty good, don't you look at Yangyang and them? ”

Liu Tong followed Chang Runzhi's gaze in the direction of his children, and said with a smile: "They haven't seen it when they are young, so they naturally watch it with relish." ”

After the words fell, Liu Tong returned to his dull appearance, but his eyes flashed, like a cheetah waiting for an opportunity.

Chang Runzhi could see that he was a little nervous, and when he thought of the difference between the palace gate guards and previous years when he entered the palace, he couldn't help but be a little frightened.

Looking up at Emperor Taichang above, his eyes were still deep, and people couldn't guess his thoughts.

Chang Runzhi wanted to ask Liu Tong, but he felt that since Liu Tong didn't say it before, even if something happened, it must be top secret, so he better not ask.

After three rounds of drinking, singing and dancing, Emperor Taichang and the queen raised a glass to celebrate the New Year with the clansmen.

As soon as the wine in the cup was drunk, there was a moment of silence in the hall, and a crisp sound of smashing the glass suddenly sounded.

"Kill!"

Accompanied by a uniform shouting of killing, jumping into the main hall were more than a dozen black-clothed people with only one pair of eyes, all of them with extraordinary skills, approaching the highest place in the hall.

Emperor Taichang was as calm as a mountain, the queen mother was already frightened, although the queen was also pale, but she still walked around in front of Emperor Taichang and shouted: "Escort!" ”

The sound of swords, guns, swords and halberds rubbing against each other sounded outside the hall, but it was obvious that the speed of the palace guards could not keep up with the speed of the assassins killing people and taking their lives.

Liu Tong pressed Chang Runzhi and threw the cup still in his hand towards the ground.

After a "bang", the attendants who had been standing in the middle of the hall and had been looking down in obedience moved.

They pulled out the weapons in the dust, caught the black-clothed people in the hall, and arrested almost all the black-clothed people with lightning speed.

But there are still two or three fish that have slipped through the net, and they are approaching the place where the emperor and queen are step by step.

The exclamations and screams in the hall, mixed with the crisp sound of swords intersecting, made the entire hall chaotic.

The Praetorian Guards had also arrived and taken down the captured man in black.

There was only one fish left that had slipped through the net, and he had touched Emperor Taichang's side and raised the dagger in his hand.

Seeing that the dagger was about to fall, the queen suddenly shouted bitterly: "Your Majesty! ”

However, it was too late, and Emperor Taichang suddenly reached out to block the Assassin's arm, but the other hand was already holding a short blade from now, and it was so easily sent into the Assassin's chest.

Liu Tong's exclamation suddenly stopped, and he took a long breath before he felt that his entire chest was beating extremely fast.

For Emperor Taichang and others, this assassination can be regarded as the dust has settled.

But for the Assassins, it wasn't the end of the day.

One of the black-clothed men who was held hostage saw that he had failed to take the life of Emperor Taichang, and immediately laughed and said: "Lord Rui, who is plotting to usurp the throne, you can escape with a sword and axe, but you can't escape the wine that can make your intestines rot!" All of you, all who are worthy of the throne as emperor, must die! ”

The hall was suddenly filled with exclamations and wails, and the timid and fearful clan relatives shouted to pass on the imperial doctor.

Emperor Taichang didn't panic at all, he pushed away the corpse of the assassin who had lost his breath, took the white silk handed by He Dan and wiped his hands, and after slowly sitting down, he sneered and said, "Drag it down." ”

I didn't even bother to say half a sentence of nonsense.

The mess in the palace was quickly dealt with by the chamberlains and palace people, but everyone no longer had the heart of the New Year, and they were afraid that something would happen again, so they all looked at Emperor Taichang and waited for his next arrangement. (To be continued.) )
