Suo Yi glanced at the official behind him, and the official understood and pointed to the little guy, "Do you know that the emperor is lying, and that is the crime of deceiving the king." Ji Qiu's squire clearly committed suicide by hanging a beam, but you said that he was murdered? ”

The little guy didn't dare to get up when he kowtowed, "The grass people don't dare to bully the king, Ji Shilang was indeed murdered by the concubine, but the grass people also learned on the elope that the concubine had been killed by the bandits, and the grass people were afraid of death and didn't dare to lie." ”

"If you don't believe me, you can ask the person next to you. The criminal department is a pretend, Wu Langzhong, you should recognize it, right? ”

Wu Zhanchang was standing behind Dong Shijie in a cold sweat at this time, and just now he entered the hall, he recognized it, and he knew that something was wrong.

As soon as he spoke, his voice trembled uncontrollably, "Your Majesty, the villain does not dare to expire Your Majesty, Ji Qiu's squire did not commit suicide by hanging the beam, but was criticized by someone." ”

"Bastard!" Dong Shijie frowned, "Then why did you say that you committed suicide by hanging the beam?" ”

"Dong Shangshu, small ...... The little one was threatened by a masked man, so he told a lie, but then the masked man came to assassinate the villain and wanted to kill him. The villain was afraid, so he told the truth, and asked His Majesty to be merciful and save the villain. ”

Suo Yi clenched his fists, and scolded Wu Zhanchang angrily in his heart, obviously telling him to find a reason to dispose of it after a while. But he couldn't hold his breath at this time, and if he really killed him, he just left him alive and brought him to the palace.

Scold! At this time, how could Suo Ji not stare at the people in the Criminal Department?

Suo Yi took a deep breath, squinted at Suo Ji, and asked the little guy meaningfully, "Then what you said about the masked man is too false and difficult to distinguish, who knows who instructed you to talk nonsense here?" If you don't tell the truth, not only your life, but also your whole family will be implicated by you. ”

"The little one doesn't dare, it's indeed a masked man."

The little guy kneeling next to him suddenly opened his mouth in a realization, "By the way, the grass people report to Your Majesty, the prince, that, that harmful concubine has an old relationship with an adult in the court." At first, she didn't want to go with the grass people, but the adult gave up in chaos, so she made up her mind to elope with the grass people. ”

"Presumably, the concubine wanted to kill Lord Ji, and then quietly followed the adult, but I didn't expect to be finally killed by that adult's men."

"Nonsense!" Suo Yi angrily reprimanded: "You are all guessing, what evidence do you have?" ”

Xiao Wu took out a belt from his arms, "Although the grass people are guessing, they also have a basis, this is the belt that the concubine gave the grass people to exchange money for." This thing belongs to the adult! ”

Suo Yi's face was gloomy, although he couldn't tell whose belt it was, but it was justified and proven, so I was afraid that it would be difficult to say anything more. He clenched his fists and stepped aside in silence, and the hall was a little quiet.

Duan Zaifu, who had been silent, stood up and said bluntly: "Your Majesty, it seems that this matter is indeed as this little guy said, and if you check it carefully, you will know whose belt it is." Since Ji Shilang's death testified that he was poisoned, it has nothing to do with Su Wei. ”

"I think there are people who want to take advantage of the disagreement between Su Weishu and Ji Shilang, and want to exonerate themselves from their own crimes, and they can also kill the concubine's room, so as not to publicize their ugly things."

Emperor Liang Hui frowned, and caught the weight of Duan Zaifu's words, "Exonerate the guilt?" What do you mean by that? Who...... What else is at stake with Ji Qiu? ”

Duan Zaifu bowed and saluted, and said unhurriedly: "Your Majesty doesn't know, the minister hasn't had time to report, these days Dali Temple has been investigating the old case, and found that last year, Fu Hong and Jia Ying escorted the silver two, at that time Jia Ying was suspected of being convicted, but he cleverly got rid of the questioning of the criminal department. ”

"And last year, Ji Shilang was still serving as a Langzhong in the Criminal Department, and I think it was Ji Shilang who was killed because he knew about the charges of some officials in the Criminal Department. Therefore, the minister said that there must be someone who wants to exonerate himself from his guilt, and he can kill the concubine and kill two birds with one stone. ”

"Father, it's not difficult to find out about this matter. It's better to hand it over to Dali Temple to check. The corners of his mouth curled.

Emperor Liang Hui pondered for a moment, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, "This matter will be handed over to Dali Temple, but ...... Prince, it is really inappropriate for you to take Su Fengyi directly out of the prison of the Criminal Department. ”

"My father is angry, but if the son doesn't go, I'm afraid that the guard of the palace will be sentenced to death."

Then, Suo Ji turned around and glared at Wu Zhanchang angrily, "Wu Langzhong is such a big official, the matter has not been investigated clearly, and he actually punished the prince first. ”

"Action, punishment?"

At this moment, Emperor Liang Hui was furious, he clenched his fists and stiffened his body to scan the people in the hall, who gave Wu Zhanchang such courage?

Su Fengyi is the son of Su Yuanjun, the prince is in prison, but the official position is still there, how can he be tortured for no reason?

What's more, now that the matter has been confirmed to have nothing to do with Su Fengyi, Su Yuanjun knew that his son was tortured by the Criminal Department for no reason, although he didn't say anything on the surface, it was difficult to guarantee that he would not be estranged.

These courtiers are so bold that they have no scruples at all.

"Your Majesty is angry, Weichen also wants to solve the case as soon as possible, and I wanted to share your Majesty's worries, so I ......"

"Shut up!"

Emperor Liang Hui roared angrily, "Wu Zhanchang, are you crazy?" Can you share my worries? ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the hall hurriedly knelt on the ground, "Your Majesty is angry, and the ministers are afraid." ”

Wu Zhanchang's words are clearly beyond his status, and it is the East Palace and the princes who can share the worries of His Majesty. Only His Majesty said that he would let the courtiers help share the worries, but no courtiers took the initiative to mention it, which is a big taboo.

Emperor Liang Hui snorted coldly and stood up, "Prince, since it was your people who were injured, and this matter was also caused by your people, then I will leave it to you to deal with." ”

After saying that, he brushed his sleeves and left.

"Your Highness, these two people will be handed over to Dali Temple for interrogation, and the others will ......"

"Duan Zaifu bothered, everything was handled by Duan Zaifu, and the palace was very relieved. However, there is a person who still has to deal with it personally......"

He squinted at Wu Zhanchang sideways, walked up to Wu Zhanchang step by step, and stared at him condescendingly, "This palace just said that those who move this palace will have to pay the price." Passed on the edict of the palace, deposed Wu Zhanchang from the post of Langzhong of the Criminal Department, and handed over a hundred canes to the inner guard. If there is any other sin, it will be dealt with again. ”

"The Inner Chamberlain?"

"Yes, the inner chamberlain, originally only the people in the palace made a mistake, so they went to the inner chamberlain to punish them. Hongu ...... today Reward! After speaking, Suo Ji walked away from the Thousand Glory Palace.

The ministers behind him hurriedly saluted, "Congratulations to His Royal Highness the Prince......"

A little eunuch frowned and approached Master Jiang's side, "Master, why did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince send Lord Wu to the inner chamberlain to be punished?" ”

"You also think that a commoner sent him to the inner prison to be punished and promoted him, which is not in accordance with the rules, right?"

"Nature."

Jiang Gaoshi sighed and shook his head, "You, I don't understand what His Highness means, the weight of this inner supervisor's hand...... Isn't it all in the meaning of His Highness! ”
