Section 218 The old case is reopened and the court is retried

Qin Fu was ordered to take the Shang Fang sword in the eldest princess's hand, but the eldest princess suddenly pulled out the sword and pointed at him: "It's you!" It was you who sued the palace in front of the imperial brother, were you also bought by the prince? ”

Qin Fu was so frightened that he retreated back again and again, and the emperor was also shocked, so Wei Guogong hurriedly shouted outside the door: "Help!" ”

Hearing this, the two brocade guards broke into the door, and immediately snatched the Shang Fang sword from the eldest princess's hand, and escorted her to the ground. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"You're bold!"

The emperor was furious, and easily smashed the **** ink inkstone on the eldest princess's forehead, and the thick black ink suddenly stained half of her cheeks.

The eldest princess, who used to be noble and cold, now looks like a shrew, but she still shouts unrelentingly: "Brother Huang, why don't you believe me? Even if Fang Ning has no more, but you are loyal to the imperial brother, it is better than Xu Shuxuan, the insidious and cunning person who relies on your favor to you and deceives you in every way, Fang Ning can use the head as a guarantee, Xu Moxuan must be the remnant of the Jiang family, and Xu Shuxuan has been planning so far, but also to overturn the case for the Jiang family! ”

"Brother Huang, have you forgotten? When the Jiang family was wiped out, you mercilessly ordered the killing of a pregnant woman, she was the eldest daughter of the Xu family, the daughter of Wei Guogong, and Xu Shuxuan's sister Xu Shuyun! ”

"Their father and son have been plotting against you all along, and now they want to kill me with your hand, I am your only sister, Brother Huang!"

"Enough, enough, enough!" The emperor couldn't bear it anymore, his eyes were so angry that his chest was suffocated, and after a long while, he pointed at Qin Fu and said, "Don't you get her out of here!" I'll never see her again! ”

Qin Fu replied yes, walked up to the eldest princess with a somewhat embarrassed expression, and persuaded in a low voice: "Your Royal Highness the princess, the emperor is still angry, so you can say a few words!" According to the crime you committed, this is still light for the common people, and it is precisely because of the love of brother and sister that the emperor did not ...... you"

The eldest princess smiled, that smile was so weird and evil, Qin Fu was afraid that it would be difficult to forget in this life.

When the two brocade guards dragged her out, she shouted with a miserable and shrieked laugh: "Brother Huang, you will regret it!" You'll regret it! ”

Wei Guogong only felt that his heart was in turmoil, for fear that the emperor would believe this woman's words, and in fact, the things he was worried about were soon placed in front of him, the emperor just stroked his forehead and rested for a while, and immediately solemnly ordered Qin Fu again: "Go and invite the prince of Wei Guogong to my study, I have something to ask him, hurry!" ”

Qin Fu was slightly stunned for a moment, then immediately answered yes, and then went out with the whisk!

On the way out of the palace, he happened to meet Xu Shuxuan, who was walking on the palace road in official uniform.

Xu Shuxuan was also here to give back to the emperor, but on the way, he met the eldest princess with a black face and a mess, and the eldest princess laughed like crazy after seeing him, until the two brocade guards dragged her all the way to the palace gate, and the poignant laughter slowly drifted away.

Therefore, Xu Shuxuan at this time was a little stunned and didn't know why.

If it weren't for Gonggong Qin's sigh to bring him back to his senses, he would probably have to think about it for a long time.

"Our family is also looking for the son! The emperor wants to ask you, you should hurry up and go to the imperial study with our family! ”

"Father-in-law Qin, can you tell me what happened in the imperial study just now? Eldest princess, she ......"

Before Xu Shuxuan finished asking, Qin Fu sighed and said: "Don't embarrass our family, this time, our family can't help you speak, the eldest princess has sued you fiercely in front of the emperor, and if the emperor asks anything later, you can adapt to it!" ”

Xu Shuxuan chuckled, this is not the first time that the eldest princess has sued him in front of the emperor!

When he walked into the imperial study, Xu Shuxuan already felt that the atmosphere was a little tense, and when he saw his father's worried eyes when he looked at him, he probably had some guesses in his heart - if it wasn't for the Jiang family's case, it would be the collusion between the eldest princess and the Tarot prince that could make the emperor so angry!

Sure enough, before he could give a gift, the emperor took a picture scroll and asked Qin Fu to hand it to him.

"This picture scroll was searched out of your study by Father-in-law Qin, you tell me, where did this picture scroll come from?" The emperor asked solemnly.

Xu Shuxuan opened it and took a look, and saw that it was indeed the picture scroll drawn by Yan Ziyi when he was following the Tarot prince, so he replied: "This painting was painted by one of the minister's guards when he was following the Tarot prince, and it was also ordered by the minister to do it!" ”

The emperor asked again: "Why do you want to make such a picture?" When was this picture made? ”

Xu Shuxuan replied: "It was two months ago when this scroll was completed, and when the minister was sending someone to follow Xu Qingxuan, he stumbled upon the interaction between him and the Tarot Prince, so he had doubts about the purpose of the Tarot Prince's coming to Da Xuan, so he ordered his guards to follow him and made this picture. ”

"Xu Qingxuan?" The emperor muttered suspiciously, and then asked, "Then what is unusual about Prince Tarot now?"

Xu Shuxuan half-knelt down, raised the report and file in his hand above his head, and replied: "The minister has found out that the case of floating corpses by the moat is the mastermind behind the Tarot prince, the Tarot prince used medicine to train the dead, causing some people who could not bear the power of medicine to go crazy and die, and the Tarot prince once sent someone to coerce Han Yong, the third room of the Han family, to hand over tens of thousands of family fortunes before the Han family raided the house, bought the Sakura Pavilion in the capital, and hid thousands of armor weapons in the underground secret room, and the minister also found out that the Tarot prince had deep friendships with many wealthy nobles in the capital, There are also business dealings in private! ”

The more Xu Shuxuan said, the darker the emperor's face became - robbing money, killing people, hiding armor, and bribing the children of the Shi clan, what does the Tarot prince want to do these things, the answer is about to come out!

"Bring me the report!"

The emperor gave an anxious order, Qin Fu immediately presented the report in Xu Shuxuan's hand to him, and after reading it two or three times, the emperor's face also turned pale, and he immediately called someone to call Lu Yan again.

"Immediately take someone to search the Sakura Pavilion and arrest Prince Tarot!"

Lu Yanzhao answered yes and then left, and when he walked out of the imperial study, he couldn't help but glance at Xu Shuxuan.

The emperor also looked at Xu Shuxuan, his eyes were uncertain, and he secretly said in his heart: In just five days, he has found out the culprit of this murder case, and it is precisely the murderer behind the scenes who is the Tarot prince who wants to seize his wife Yang on the grounds of harmony, is this really the case, or is this situation set up by him intentionally?

And if it was really this game he set up, then how deep and terrifying should this young favorite be?

The emperor immediately thought of what his sister Eldest Princess Fang Ning had just said - was the father and son really borrowing his hand to get rid of his sister? Is Xu Shuxuan really planning to overturn the case for the Jiang family?

"Shu Xuan, I have another thing to ask you, Xu Moxuan, is he the son of the Jiang family?"

The medical book that Qin Fu gave him, he had already read it, and he also asked the Tai Hospital to study and interpret it for him, and he was very disappointed, neither mentioning the recipe that could make the blood of two unrelated people fuse, nor the secret recipe for immortality.

But it is his nature to be suspicious, not to mention the word of the crowd, even if it is the slightest possibility, he must not let it go!

Xu Shuxuan still replied calmly under his cold gaze: "Your Majesty, the minister has already proved it to you, if you are still suspicious, the minister has nothing to say." ”

"Do you know who this person who directly points out that Xu Moxuan is the son of the Jiang family? Who first handed over the impeachment of you for shielding the remnants of the traitors! ”

The imperial historians in the Han Hall were all talking about gold, and it was indeed impossible to see who was the initiator of leading this group of ministers.

The emperor paused, and the corners of his mouth pulled out a hint of ridicule.

"The first person to give me this excerpt of impeachment is your second uncle Xu Zhi, and even your second uncle has come to testify that Xu Moxuan's identity is suspicious, what else do you have to say?" He said.

It turned out to be the second uncle! That's not surprising!

Xu Shuxuan smiled, and he replied: "Your Majesty, even if Lord Xu impeached the ministers for harboring the remnants of the traitors, and pointed out that Xu Moxuan was the son of the Jiang family, then he should have shown the emperor enough evidence, so why should the emperor ask the ministers again?" ”

The emperor was stunned, he was so angry that he was speechless, Xu Zhi did say that there was evidence, but the evidence is that Xu Moxuan and Jiang Qilang have similar appearances, but everyone knows that Jiang Qilang has never married a wife in his life, and only has a marriage contract with Yang Qiuxuan, even if it is 10,000 steps back, Yang Qiuxuan has taught Yang Qilang privately, but as we all know, Yang Qiuxuan has only one daughter, that is, Xu Shuxuan's wife Yang Aling.

Judging that his identity is false based on his appearance alone cannot be sufficient evidence, and Xu Nuo also said that Xu Moxuan was born to the daughter of the Jiang family, and it is not surprising that he looks a little like the Jiang family.

The emperor knew that he would not get a positive answer to this question if he asked again, so he asked instead: "Did you put the evidence of bribery and betrayal of officials, corruption and perversion of the law, framing Zhongliang and secret letters recorded by Yan Fan in the Yang family?" ”

It was expected that the emperor would suspect him.

Xu Shuxuan did not deny it, but still replied very calmly: "Yes!" ”

"That's why you asked me to order the Third Division to go to the Yang family to search for evidence, just to show the Third Division and me this evidence?" The emperor asked again.

Xu Shuxuan's face still did not change, and replied: "Yes!" ”

"Do you know that I can also smelt you for the crime of planting dirt and framing you!" The emperor asked sharply.

Xu Shuxuan smiled slightly, and replied: "Who is clear and who is turbid, who is loyal and who is traitorous, in fact, the emperor knows better than anyone else, even the emperor himself will not believe that the Yang family will collaborate with the enemy, how can he suspect that the evidence taken out by the minister is false?" ”

"Then have you ever thought that the evidence left by Yan Fan is enough to put most of the officials in the DPRK and China in prison, there is no absolute integrity and strictness in this world, even if your Xu family dares to say that there is no corruption and bribery?" When the emperor said this, he sneered a little, "In order to make the crimes of Yan Xiang's father and son public, you would rather offend most of the officials in the DPRK and make hundreds of enemies, Xu Shuxuan, do you think such a price is worth it?" What's more, Yan Fan has already subdued the law seven years ago, what is the significance of you still doing such a thing to yourself, is it just to overturn the case for the Jiang family? ”

The case of the Jiang family was a thorn in the emperor's heart, and when the emperor said to the end, his eyes were obviously flashing with murderous coldness.

Xu Shuxuan didn't hide or dodge, but still responded to him calmly: "The minister just wants to give the world justice!" ”

"Justice?" The emperor muttered and suddenly laughed, "Xu Shuxuan, I thought that you had been tactful enough in the officialdom in the past few years, but I didn't expect you to dare to talk about justice in front of me now!" ”

"If I want your life in exchange for what you say is justice, would you be willing?"

The sudden sentence shocked Wei Guogong, who had been waiting anxiously, and at this time, Wei Guogong didn't care about anything else, so he hurriedly stood in front of Xu Shuxuan and pleaded: "Your Majesty, everything Xiao'er did was done at the behest of the old minister, if the emperor wants to punish him, he will ask the old minister to accept it on behalf of Xiao'er, and the old minister is willing to apologize for his crime with death!" "Anyway, he touched the ground with his forehead and made a heavy, dull sound!

And at this time, there was another rumor outside the door: "Dali Temple Qing Cheng Jing asks to see!" ”

The emperor frowned, slightly displeased, Dali Temple Qing Cheng Jing can be said to be a timid and afraid of things, since yesterday in the Yang family found out the thick book of Yan Xiang father and son did a lot of crimes, his hands have been trembling, until this morning when the royal prelude did not stop, in the morning left only an hour and a half, why did he come again?

As everyone knows, Cheng Jing was really frightened this time, and when he stepped into the imperial study, he was still trembling, only to see him fall to his knees with a thud, hold up a report above his head, and said: "Your Majesty, this morning there was a woman who beat the famous drum outside the door of Dali Temple, and actually sued the feudal clan to kill her husband, and hid in the house in the name of her husband, poisoned her heirs, deceived her in-laws, and did not remove the traitorous ministers, the world is uneasy, I hope the court can bring him to justice and return justice to the world!" ”

After hearing this, the emperor was a little ignorant: "What did you say?" Yan Fan has been dead for seven years, why are there still people accusing him of murder and evil? Is he ghostly and left in the world? Who was the woman who sued him? ”

Cheng Jing also felt incredible, if it weren't for the ghost, how could he still come back from the dead? But he really dug up a skeleton in a corner of the Duke of Wei's mansion under the leadership of Mrs. Shizi, and one of the clothes buried with the skeleton was indeed something in front of Xu Qingxuan, and even the second master Xu and the second lady Liu proved it.

Such an unbelievable thing, Cheng Jing was also frightened, and it took him a long time to clear his mind and report: "The woman who sued him is the wife of Xu Qingxuan, the head of the household department, Zhang!" ”

"Zhang? Isn't Zhang already dead? "Even the emperor knew that two months ago, the Xu family had sent a funeral to the Zhang family.

Cheng Jing continued: "Zhang said that she cheated to death before, because Xu Qingxuan wanted to kill her, so she pretended to be sick and faked her death, and it was one of her maidservants who was buried as Zhang's, Xu Qingxuan wanted to poison her, but killed her maid by mistake, so Zhang's plan was calculated, and let the maid deceive Xu Qingxuan instead of her death!" ”

"The murderer Yan Fan that the Zhang family sued is her current husband Xu Qingxuan, that is, Yan Fan who disguises the identity of Xu Qingxuan!"

Although the emperor was a little dizzy when he heard it, he could roughly understand what was going on, at least, he heard a meaning: that is, Yan Fan is not dead!

Why hasn't Yan Fan died yet? Maybe only Lu Bing can tell him the answer.

So, the emperor ordered Lu Bing to be summoned.

Zhang was led by Han Ling to go to Dali Temple to beat the name drum, if it were not for Han Ling's blessing, Cheng Jing would not dare to accept the case, but even if the case was accepted, Cheng Jing still did not dare to act rashly, so he handed the excerpt to the emperor.

The emperor was naturally furious, threw the report handed over by Cheng Jing on Lu Bing's face, and sharply asked why Yan Fan was still alive?

Lu Bingqu knelt down on his knees and had to answer: "Seven years ago, Yan Fan did die in Jinyi Prison, and the ministers still took his body to the hill, I don't know why he is still alive now?" ”

There are only two possibilities: one is that Yan Fan is indeed dead seven years ago, and Xu Qingxuan, who was sued by the woman, is not Yan Fan at all, and the other is that Yan Fan seven years ago also cheated to death and escaped the sight of Jinyiwei.

Then, it is enough to prove whether Xu Qingxuan is a fan or not!

So, the emperor ordered Lu Bing to arrest Xu Qingxuan immediately, but when Jinyiwei rushed to the Wei Mansion, Xu Qingxuan was no longer in the mansion, and there was no trace of him in the household yamen, and the emperor originally wanted to secretly execute Xu Qingxuan to put an end to the rumors that Yan Fan was not dead, but he did not expect that within a day, Yan Fan was not dead and the news that the second young master of the Xu family hid in the Wei Mansion to kill his wife and poisonous son spread all over the capital, which made the city in an uproar, and many literati stood outside the gate of Dali Temple, asking the court to arrest Yan Fan and bring him to justice. Outside the gate of Dali Temple is noisy every day, and the voices of people are boiling. (To be continued.) )
