Although the evidence is conclusive, and the human and material evidence is there, Emperor Yuan Yong still organized the Criminal Department, Dali Temple, and the Inspectorate to try the case with great fanfare, and allowed the people to watch from the sidelines.

At the same time, he ordered people to surround the Jinxiang Bofu, and ordered Liu Di to rectify the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division to find out whether there was still a traitor department.

Liu Di took advantage of this incident to thoroughly purge the personnel of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, and although he encountered great resistance, he still eliminated most of the noble men.

Today, except for Qiu Liang, the grandson of the Marquis of Jingtian, the commander of the Nancheng Terracotta Division, who is still in the noble camp, the commanders and deputy commanders of the Terracotta Division in the other four cities in the central, western, northern, and eastern cities are all confidants of Emperor Yuan Yong.

On 18 September, in the lobby of the Criminal Department, the Three Law Divisions openly tried the case of fake national debts.

Yesterday, the Criminal Department reported the matter, and now many businessmen and gentry have come to watch the case.

The Xungui side also sent heavyweights such as Niu Jizong, the first-class Bo Niu of the Zhenguo Mansion, and Liu Fang, the first-class son of the Liguo Mansion, to observe.

Yang Hong, Gu Zhou and others had already received a secret message from King Beijing, and they wanted to commit suicide in prison, but the prison was extremely guarded, and they never found a chance.

After Yang Hong and Gu Zhou were brought to court, they confessed to the crime without waiting for the appearance of human and physical evidence, in an attempt to take all the blame.

But Wang Zhushan, Shen Ji, and Shi Liangrui still tried the case step by step, announced all the details of the matter, and secretly pointed out the relationship behind the few people.

With the disclosure of more details of the case, the people accused Yang Hong and several others, especially the tragedy of Jiang'an's several families, which made everyone present and onlookers indignant and their hearts were like ice.

Seeing Xungui's behavior of crossing the river and demolishing bridges, rabbits and dead dogs, many people secretly decided in their hearts to stay away from Xungui.

After the trial of the main accomplices was completed, Wang Zhushan ordered Han Qi, who refused to admit his guilt, to the court.

Zhou Kun, Huang Yongzhong, and Lu Jing were also at the scene because they were involved in the case, and confronted Han Qi when necessary.

At this time, Lu Jing's mind had changed, and he felt that Emperor Yuanyong's scheming was too deep, and he was afraid that it would not be good to get a good death when he was an errand boy by the side of such an emperor.

originally planned to promote the duel between the emperor and Xungui, but now he hopes that Xungui can survive for a while longer, so he plans to secretly help Xungui and not involve more people in this case, so that Xungui can hold on for a while longer and buy enough time for himself to lay out.

When Wang Zhushan saw Han Qi present, he asked the officials to take Yang Hong and Gu Zhou down, and then asked why Han Qi appeared in Yang's house that night.

Han Qi already knew that Gu Zhou and Yang Hong had resisted all the charges, so he said extremely calmly: "It's just a coincidence that I appeared there, I was just invited to Yang's house as a guest that day, and I didn't know about the Yang family, because I drank a few more glasses, I wanted to wait for the wine to wake up and then go home, but I didn't expect to meet Lord Zhou and them, and now I think that I was used by Yang Hong and others." ”

"So you don't know anything about fake national debt?" Wang Zhushan continued to ask quietly.

Han Qi said bitterly: "Yes, if I had known that the Yang family would do such a rebellious thing, I would have cut off contact with them a long time ago, and even personally exposed them." ”

Wang Zhushan nodded, did not refute this, and continued to ask: "When Lord Zhou led people to search the Yang family, did you bring people to resist with knives and obstruct Lord Zhou's actions?" ”

Hearing this, Han Qi immediately glanced at Wang Zhushan indifferently, pondered for a moment, and said, "No." ”

Zhou Kun sneered after hearing this, his eyes were full of ridicule, but he did not stand up to refute his words, there are so many witnesses in this matter, and he is not needed to testify at all.

"Bring a witness!" Wang Zhushan said coldly.

Subsequently, some of the Yang family guards and patrol soldiers of the Dongcheng Soldiers and Horses Division who participated in the incident that day came out to testify about the incident.

Wang Zhushan warned: "If you continue to believe in your words, don't blame the official for being polite!" ”

Han Qi snorted coldly in his heart, extremely disdainful of his threat, and said, "I just wanted to leave the Yang family at that time, but I couldn't help myself when I was caught up in them. ”

Wang Zhushan broke off and said, "You just need to answer yes or no!" ”

Han Qi's eyes were cold, and after a long silence, he said coldly: "Yes!" ”

When Wang Zhushan heard this, a smile flashed in his eyes, and he continued to ask, "Did Lord Zhou tell him that he was acting on orders at that time?" ”

When Han Qi heard this, he suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart, and his mind turned sharply, explaining: "Yes, I said it, but..."

As soon as Han Qi's voice began, he was interrupted by Wang Zhushan: "Since Lord Zhou has already said that he is acting on orders, why do you still lead troops to resist and disrespect the order?" ”

Lu Jing heard these eight words and suddenly realized that no wonder the emperor had to engage in the trial of the three divisions, it turned out that he wanted to give Han Qi'an a charge of rebellion, and secretly praised Emperor Yuanyong in his heart, and he actually expected that Xungui was unwilling to give up Han Qi, so that Gu Zhou and others could resist the charge of fake national debt, and now it seems that the emperor did not prevent Xungui from passing the news to the prison, he was setting a trap, and poor Xungui was introduced by the emperor step by step without knowing it.

Now that Han Qi admits the fake national debt, it will be useless, and the emperor will definitely not give up this opportunity to beat the water dogs.

Han Qi was obviously also aware of this problem, and immediately said angrily and anxiously: "At that time, Zhou Pi, Lord Zhou's words flickered and he couldn't come up with the holy decree, how do I know that he didn't lie and fake the holy decree." ”

"Presumptuous!" Shi Liangrui said angrily: "Lord Zhou is an official of the Second Rank Hall, an important minister of the imperial court, how can he falsely pass on the holy decree, it is obvious that you despise the holy lord, pretend not to know, I think you don't put the holy decree in your eyes at all, and you don't put the emperor in your eyes." ”

When Niu Jizong heard this, he realized that something was wrong, and immediately had a gloomy face, and said dissatisfied: "Today's trial is a case of fake national debts, what nonsense are you talking about here, where is there any thing to resist the will." ”

Shi Liangrui said coldly: "The evidence of the fake national debt is conclusive, the facts are there, there is no need to retry it after the trial has been completed, but the matter of Han Qi contempting the holy decree and leading troops to rebel must be thoroughly investigated, otherwise where is the majesty of the saint and where is the law of the country!" ”

Liu Fang sneered: "Hehe, the evidence is conclusive, how come I don't know, before you have finished trying everyone, you dare to say that the facts are there, I think you are blatantly flouting the laws of the court and wantonly slandering the crime of chaos!" ”

Seeing this, Wang Zhushan immediately clapped the case and shouted: "Silence, the Holy Lord let you observe, not let you disturb the court!" ”

Niu Jizong snorted coldly: "The Holy One asked us to come to supervise the trial process of this case, and if your trial is unfair, we will naturally stop it." ”

Liu Fang also helped to echo the situation, wanting to mess up the matter and make the case impossible to try.

Wang Zhushan and Shi Liangrui didn't want to argue with Niu Jizong, but Niu Jizong and Liu Fang deliberately obstructed it and kept interjecting in it, making it impossible for the case to be tried any longer.

Wang Zhushan was a little annoyed when he saw this: "If the two of you continue to mess around, don't blame the official for inviting you out of the court!" ”

"I see who dares to touch me, this matter is to make trouble in front of the emperor, and I have this attitude!" Niu Jizong rolled up his sleeves and shouted, wanting to buy time to go back and discuss countermeasures.

Lu Jing sat in the field and watched the confrontation between the two parties with cold eyes, Xungui played his usual advantages with brute skill, and suddenly noticed the decisiveness in Han Qi's eyes, knowing that Han Qi already had the will to die at this moment, and secretly sighed in his heart that Han Qi was a ruthless person, and he could think of such a way to break the situation.

Lu Jing looked at Wang Zhushan and the others, who were still unaware of the incident, not only did not say anything to remind them, but also deliberately talked to Zhou Kun and Huang Yongzhong to distract them.

Han Qi's heart was full of despair at the moment, ignoring the quarrel at the venue, knowing that the emperor was going to kill him completely, his heart was both angry and remorseful, if they were allowed to confirm their own charges of rebellion, the entire Han family would be implicated, thinking of this, his heart was even more dead.

After a quick deduction in his heart, now there is only one way to go, only hesitate for a moment, his eyes are full of determination, and when everyone is unprepared, he rushed to the side pillar, slammed hard, and suddenly his brain burst and he died on the spot.

The officials in the hall couldn't react, so they could only watch this scene happen, watching the blood splash, and they were a little at a loss for a while.

When the people outside the hall saw this, they shouted in fright, some people covered their eyes and couldn't bear to look directly, some ran away directly with pale faces, and a few people were even scared and vomited on the spot.

Wang Zhushan and Niu Jizong were all shocked, and their faces were extremely ugly.

Lu Jing looked at this scene and sighed secretly in his heart, Han Qi chose the right time, so that Xungui also had room to fight back.

After Niu Jizong reacted, he was about to beat Wang Zhushan and a few people, but was stopped by Liu Fang.

Liu Fang's voice was full of coldness and said: "After you openly framed Zhongliang, you even forced Han Qi to death on the spot, this matter is not over, the old man will definitely report this matter to the emperor and give Han Qi justice!" After saying that, the two quickly left.

After Wang Zhushan, Shen Ji, and Shi Liangrui heard this, their faces became even more ugly, and they hurriedly dispersed everyone, ordered someone to collect Han Qi's body, and entered the palace to report the matter to Emperor Yuanyong.

Zhou Kun and Huang Yongzhong all sighed secretly, they didn't expect this to be the case, so things would be more complicated, they were a little haggard, and secretly prayed that nothing would happen.

Lu Jing was secretly vigilant in his heart, the world is impermanent, and he must not underestimate any opponent in the future, now that Han Qi is dead, Xungui's side will definitely have trouble with the emperor, it depends on how the emperor responds.
