Chapter 297: Checking the Assassins (4th Watch)
Xi Ze looked up, looked at the assassin carefully, and asked, "Who are you?" ”
The assassin snorted coldly: "Since you have already been caught, there is no need to dwell on this, if you want to kill, you have to have a good time!" ”
Xi Ze raised his eyes to look at Ye Yongshun and asked, "Where did you catch him?" ”
Ye Yongshun seemed to hesitate, he looked at Fu Dong, and said to Xi Ze: "This assassin is hiding in the palace, and Weichen found him in the palace!" ”
Xi Ze was shocked when he heard this: "Wangfu? Guarding the stars where? The Queen's House? ”
Ye Yongshun frowned and replied seriously: "Exactly, Weichen has sent people to surround the palace, the Wang family colluded with the assassins, please ask the emperor to show whether to arrest the Wang family immediately!" ”
The whole Wang family has always been loyal to him, how can he harbor criminals and collude with assassins! Xi Ze was incredulous, his face was shocked, he quickly ran his mind and carefully judged: "Are you sure that the Wang family is colluding with the assassins?" Is there any evidence? ”
Ye Yongshun looked at Fu Dong, and reported to Xi Zeyu with his eyebrows: "This assassin was indeed found by Weichen in the palace, and the Wang family harbored the assassin, this is something that everyone has witnessed, at that time, after Weichen caught the assassin, he asked General Wang, but General Wang couldn't answer anything!" Your Majesty, this assassin is from Xiao Guo, and he has the mark of the Xiao Royal Army on his back! ”
Xiao Guo? This matter actually involved Xiao Guo! Fine light sweat appeared between Xi Ze's forehead and temples, and he looked at the assassin kneeling below again, and asked sharply, "Did King Xiao send you to assassinate me?" ”
The Assassin replied, "I have always been loyal to the Great Xiao Dynasty, why are you Jin people so grinding?" Give it a good time! ”
Xi Ze stared and carefully distinguished: "Why did the assassin sent by Xiao Guo hide in the palace, did you deliberately sneak in?" ”
The assassin laughed: "I said that the emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty, the palace is a big clan of your Jin Dynasty, and it is heavily guarded, if he didn't answer me, how would I get in?" Let me tell you the truth, the topographic map of your palace was handed over to me by Wang Shouxing himself, and the troupe was also arranged by the Wang family. ”
The accusations were all directed at the Wang family, but Xi Ze still couldn't believe it: "Why is he only caught, and what about the other assassins?" ”
Ye Yongshun and Fu Dong looked at each other without saying a word. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Xi Ze looked at the assassin and asked, "What about your comrades?" ”
The Assassin replied hatefully, "My comrades...... Didn't they all kill your people? I was the only one who stood out from the cong and hid in the Wang's house! Outcome...... Still caught by you! God is going to destroy me! ”
Xi Ze looked at Ye Yongshun and Fu Dong, frowned and asked, "You really only caught this one assassin?" Are the other Assassins dead? ”
Fu Dong replied, "In the process of chasing the assassins, Wei Chen and his soldiers did kill a lot of assassins!" Now, General Chen and General searched the entire Imperial Capital, and only found this one assassin, according to his confession, the same party is dead, so the Minister thinks that his words are credible, after all, General Chen and General Ye have searched the entire Imperial Capital, and only he is found! ”
At this moment, Ye Yongshun said to Xi Ze: "Your Majesty, now find out that Wang Shouxing colluded with the assassins of Xiao Guo and collaborated with the enemy to commit treason, how to deal with it, and ask the emperor to show me!" ”
Xi Ze stared at the assassin intently, and did not say a word for a long time.
Fu Dong suddenly said again: "This group of opera troupes was arranged by the queen to enter the palace, and now it has been found that the Wang family is colluding with the assassins, so is the queen also involved?" ”
When Xi Ze heard this, his eyes swept towards Fu Dong fiercely, as if a powerful icy air flow was attacking with ice edges, and Fu Dong stopped under Xi Ze's forced gaze!
Xi Zeyin grimaced and ordered: "Escort this assassin down and wait for interrogation!" Immediately arrest the Wang family and wait for interrogation, but this matter must have nothing to do with the queen, whoever dares to be difficult for the middle palace, I will take someone's life! ”
Fu Dong and Ye Yongshun were stunned when they heard this, and they didn't dare to mention the Middle Palace again, so they replied with their hands: "Yes!" ”
At this moment, Fu Dong asked again: "Then can the emperor hand over this matter to the ministers for trial?" Wechen will definitely bring this case to the bottom of the trial, and he will not let go of any of them! ”
Ye Yongshun continued: "In the matter of tracking down the assassins, Commander Fu has indeed done his best, and the minister seconded it!" ”
Xi Ze raised his eyebrows and smiled coldly: "This matter is very important, I still have to send Xia Xiang over to discuss, don't make a decision so quickly!" ”
Fu Dong was anxious: "Your Majesty, Xia Xiang has always been good friends with Wang Shouxing, if this matter is handed over to Xia Xiang, I'm afraid it will be ......."
"Are you afraid that Xia Xiang will cheat for personal gain?" Xi Ze interrupted coldly, "If Xia Xiang is really such a person, then his position as prime minister, I will immediately remove him and replace him with someone else!" ”
With Xi Ze's assurance, Fu Dong couldn't say anything anymore, so he had to say: "The minister retires!" ”
Ye Yongshun also knew each other and said: "Weichen retires!" Then he took the assassin down.
Xi Ze finally handed over the matter to Xia Wanfeng to investigate, and after Xia Wanfeng received the order, he walked out of the Chengguang Hall and saw Wang Ningxuan kneeling alone outside the hall and asking for an audience.
In the night breeze, Wang Ningxuan's body knelt straight, Xia Wanfeng knew that Xi Ze would not see Wang Ningxuan at this moment, he walked to Wang Ningxuan's side, and arched his hand: "Queen Mother, you better go back!" The emperor has decreed that no one should embarrass the Middle Palace, otherwise it will be a capital crime, and you don't have to kneel here anymore! ”
Xi Ze doesn't pursue the Middle Palace, trusts the Middle Palace, shouldn't she be glad to be moved, be careful about her behavior, protect herself wisely, and draw a clear line with right and wrong? But that's her mother's house! How could she abandon it, she couldn't keep Wang Qinyao anymore, could she also abandon the rest of the Wang family? She looked at Xia Wanfeng blankly, as if grasping a life-saving straw: "Xia Xiang, the emperor believes in the palace, why doesn't he believe in the Wang family?" ”
Xia Wanfeng frowned slightly in the night wind: "Niangniang, now all the evidence points to the Wang family, and the emperor has the heart to defend it but is not enough, but the emperor has handed over the matter to Weichen for trial, as long as the Wang family is innocent, Weichen will definitely find out the matter!" But now, the emperor won't see you, and the night is windy, so you better go back and rest early! ”
The dawn of hope seemed to be getting brighter and brighter, Wang Ningxuan looked at Xia Wanfeng with anticipation, and said poignantly: "I heard that Xia Xiang has always been fair and strict, our Wang family will never do such a thing, this palace can swear by his own life, the Wang family will always be loyal to the emperor, and please believe that Xia Xiang believes in this palace, the Wang family is absolutely innocent!" ”
Xia Wanfeng was slightly moved when she heard this: "Don't worry, Weichen will deal with it impartially, you go back first, the emperor is not convenient to see Niangniang now, the emperor has tried his best to take care of Niangniang, Niangniang don't put too much pressure on the emperor, after all, people are terrible!" ”
Xia Wanfeng's words were broken, and Wang Ningxuan understood and finally got up.
Xia Wanfeng smiled and said, "Weichen will send her mother!" ”
Wang Ningxuan nodded: "Thank you Xia Xiang!" (To be continued.) )
