A scream of 'Ah......' pierced the gray dawn. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

A small vendor who delivered vegetables to the mansion, as usual, came out to deliver vegetables before dawn, standing at the back door of the mansion with two baskets of vegetables, looking at the back door that had usually opened the door for him to enter, and no matter how it shouted, there was no movement, and he was curious, put the basket on one side, and climbed up the courtyard wall to see what was going on, but he didn't think about it.

I didn't think about it, but I saw a maid lying in a pool of blood, and suddenly screamed in fright, and fell down from the courtyard wall, shouting "Murder, death", while running out in a panic, while staring at the eyes of fear and timidity, looking back from time to time, I was afraid that the murderer would suddenly appear behind him and kill him.

It was precisely because of the miserable scream, the murderous roar, that the neighbors around him were noisy, and a person opened the door and looked curiously and fearfully.

"There's a dead man there, there's a lot of noise in the early morning!"

A man with a thick head and big ears who looked like an official came out of the mansion on the other side of the mansion and walked out, looking at the vegetable vendor who fell to the ground in embarrassment, and hurriedly got up and continued to run for his life, and reprimanded loudly.

The vegetable seller continued to wander away without looking back, still loudly arguing, "What a dead man!" A maid died in the backyard of the house of Master Li, the squire of the military department, and the little one is going to report the case, yes, report the case! ”

The vegetable vendor, who was so scared that he had no owner, unexpectedly remembered to report the crime, which can be regarded as somewhat sensible.

When the maid who came out to see the excitement heard this, he smiled disdainfully, and turned back to the yard.

There were also more careful women, who felt that something was wrong with the situation, and doubts flashed in their hearts, but no one said to go and see them, so they also went back to the courtyard, busy with the work in their hands, and waited for the masters to get up.

It wasn't until soon after, seeing the arrival of a large group of officers and soldiers in armor, that I felt that something was wrong.

Lord Jingzhao Yin Fang was dressed in official robes and rode a tall horse with a large group of people and horses, but not for the murder, but for the fact that a few days ago, hundreds of archers intercepted and killed King Chen and Princess Chen on the street, and came to arrest the mastermind behind the scenes.

"Knock the door open to the officer!"

Lord Fang's upright square face stared at the closed door solemnly, and in the whispered discussion of the lively crowd, he ordered his officers and soldiers to hit the door directly.

He came to arrest the suspect, and he had an edict from the emperor, but no one answered when the officers and soldiers knocked on the door, so he could only open the door in a simple and rude way.

Of course, the officers and soldiers of Jingzhao Mansion listened to Lord Fang, and the few people standing at the front glanced at each other, raised their feet and kicked hard at the closed gate, and kicked the vermilion gate open after a few kicks.

"According to the Holy Command, the squire of the military department is suspected of assassinating Prince Chen and Princess Chen, the crime is heinous, and he will be sent to the prison immediately to wait for the fate, and his family members will be sentenced to the same crime, and he will be sent to the prison, and the family property will be rushed."

Lord Fang read out the edict in front of everyone outside the door at that time, and then raised his hand to give a gesture to the officers and soldiers, "Go in, arrest people!" ”

At this time, the neighbors and people passing by to watch the excitement understood Lord Fang's intention, and sighed in his heart.

The squire of the military department is also a senior official in the court, why can't he think of assassinating King Chen, assassinating the royal family is a capital crime of exterminating the nine clans, I really don't know what the squire thinks.

A group of officers and soldiers strode into the official residence with weapons in hand, and as they advanced, they found that more and more of the rooms were lying with corpses, and they were still cold corpses that had been killed with a knife, and their faces were even more ugly, especially when they finally found the long-dead soldier in the main house, not to mention how ugly the face was.

It's as uncomfortable as someone killed their relatives, but in fact, he is angry at the cruelty and ruthlessness of this murderer, and he doesn't even let go of a little baby, and he is even more angry that the murderer blatantly killed people under the eyelids of Jingzhao Mansion, isn't it cutting their faces?

"My lord, my subordinates are one step late, the military department's mansion was destroyed last night, and there are 73 people in the whole house, none of them survived, all of them were killed with a knife, and they didn't even let go of the dog in the backyard."

It's really cruel and ruthless, and the chickens and dogs don't stay.

"What did you just say? Say it again. ”

Lord Fang stood outside the door on horseback with an unchanged expression, smelling the faint smell of blood wafting from the house, and I have to say that Fang's face, which had become serious, became even more gloomy.

"The scene is cordoned off for the official, and the official is guarded well before he comes back, and no one is allowed to enter!"

After speaking, Lord Fang pulled the reins tightly with his hand, slapped the horse's buttocks with one hand, and galloped away in the direction of the palace, but secretly complained in his heart.

It seems that this Handan city is not going to be peaceful.

At this time, in the high imperial city, on the solemn palace Taihe Palace, the hundred officials were respectfully divided into two civil and military cases as usual and stood in the main hall to discuss matters, which was called the early dynasty.

Emperor Dongzhao sat majestically in a dragon robe in the golden dragon chair, staring at the second prince who was returning to the ceremony with a pair of stern eyes, and then glanced at King Chen, who had just entered the court and was sitting in a wheelchair as if he had nothing to do, and finally looked at Taiwei Shu who was standing in front, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Father, this time, the squire of the military department transferred out the archers in the guard army without authorization, and colluded with others to assassinate King Chen and the palace of King Chen, which is really a great crime and deserves to be punished, but Erchen still has doubts in his heart, this soldier squire does not have a talisman in his hand, how to mobilize those archers, Erchen is very confused. As far as Erchen knows, the squire of the military department is still a protégé of Captain Shu, and he has always been good friends with the Seventh Prince. ”

There is no need to understand the following words, the official in the hall is not a human spirit, and he immediately guessed what the second prince wanted to say, which is alluding to the fact that the squire of the military department in the assassination of King Chen has accomplices, and the accomplices are likely to be Shu Taiwei or the Seventh Prince.

"Please father Mingjian, the son is not familiar with the soldier and the servant, even if they occasionally meet, it is just a nodding friend, please father Mingjian!"

The seven princes were dressed in navy blue robes and were very stable, and after the exception, they respectfully kowtowed to the emperor, looking like they had been wronged, and at the same time glared at the second prince who was secretly on the side without remembering.

Taiwei Shu couldn't stand at this time, and stood in the center of the Taige Hall as an exception, his white forehead slammed on the ground, and he respectfully saluted and pleaded guilty.

"The old minister is guilty, please the emperor angry minister is not clear about the crime of teaching and teaching, although the soldier is the protégé of the old minister, but he has already become independent, and he is not too close to the old minister on weekdays, and the old minister did not expect him to do such a rebellious thing, please punish the old minister for the crime of negligence and discipline!"

This sentence is all a plea, but every sentence makes his relationship with the soldier clear and said that he is not close to the protégé of the independent door, so he may be able to be disciplined, and besides, the soldier is also an adult in his forties, so he will listen to discipline.

Emperor Dongzhao's expression did not change, he sat in the dragon chair, glanced at the three people kneeling on the ground lightly, and did not tell them to get up, but looked at Zhao Xuanchen, the king of Chen, who had always been like an invisible person.

"What does the third child think about this!"

As one of the parties involved, Zhao Xuanchen is undoubtedly the protagonist of this matter, and it is necessary to listen to his opinion, plus, King Chen has just been in court for a few days, and the emperor wants to see how he will deal with this matter.

Zhao Xuanchen, who lowered his head and didn't know what he was thinking, slowly raised his cute baby face, his eyes as clear as spring water, and his innocent eyes became deep and calm because he regained his senses, and there was some dim dark light, even if he was in a wheelchair, he gave people a sense of breathless heaviness.

"Erchen thinks it's good to do business!" (To be continued.) )
