Chapter 254: Qin Qiong Returns
Gongsun Ce looked at Zhu Hao for a long time and didn't answer, so he reminded in a low voice:
"Your Highness, look at this matter......
When Zhu Hao heard this, he snorted, and then said shamelessly:
"Ahh That, this king just got distracted! ”
"Tell me what you came up with?"
After listening to Zhu Hao's words, Gongsun Ce was speechless, and said secretly in his heart:
"His Royal Highness Feelings' serious expression just now is all pretended!"
"It turns out that I didn't listen to anything, Your Highness is really getting more and more abnormal!"
Although Gongsun Ce slandered Zhu Hao in his heart, he didn't dare to say it, so he could only patiently explain to Zhu Hao:
"Your Highness, here's the thing, this person who sells war horses privately is called Qin Bao, and the yellow horse he sold is not a war horse!"
When Zhu Hao heard this, he interrupted Gongsun Ce's words and said:
"Oh?"
"Not a war horse?"
"Then why did you arrest him?"
Gongsun Ce listened to Zhu Hao's question and hurriedly explained:
"Your Highness, Wechen said that the horse he sold was not a war horse, because Wechen checked the register of war horses, and there was no registration record of this horse!"
"But even so, this yellow horse meets the standards of a war horse in every way!"
"Therefore, it is really difficult for Weichen to judge for a while!"
Zhu Hao listened to Gongsun Ce's explanation, groaned slightly, and understood the mystery.
This Qin Qiong was summoned by him, and this yellow horse should have been summoned with Qin Qiong, so there is no record of the horse in the Ming Dynasty's war horse book, but the horse under Qin Qiong's crotch is naturally a war horse.
This is why the yellow horses sold by Qin Qiong met the standards of war horses in all aspects, but they were not registered in the Ming War Horse Book.
Although Zhu Hao understood this, he didn't want Gongsun Ce to let Qin Qiong go like this, because in that case, his plan to improve Qin Qiong's loyalty by rescuing Qin Qiong from danger would be in vain.
Zhu Hao thought so, so he opened his mouth and asked Gongsun Cedao:
"Did you ask him where his horses came from?"
After listening to Zhu Hao's words, Gongsun Ce hurriedly nodded and said:
"I asked, and he said it was a gift from a friend!"
Hearing this, Zhu Hao continued to ask:
"Did you ask him who his friend was?"
When Gongsun Ce heard this, he shook his head slightly and said:
"This Weichen also asked, but he said that he couldn't remember it clearly!"
Zhu Hao listened to Gongsun Ce's words, his eyes lit up, and he found a reason to punish Qin Qiong from Gongsun Ce's words, and he hurriedly whispered to Gongsun Ce:
"In that case, you will convict him of reselling horses of unknown origin!"
"Sentence him to the army!"
Gongsun Ce listened to Zhu Hao's words, and said with a somewhat embarrassed face:
"Your Highness, this is not good......"
Zhu Hao heard that Gongsun Ce was unwilling to wronged Qin Qiong, but Zhu Hao really needed such an opportunity, so he didn't give Gongsun Ce a chance to say more, and directly shouted coldly:
"Less nonsense!"
"Do as the king says!"
Gongsun Ce listened to Zhu Hao's stern words, his face was a little unpleasant, although Gongsun Ce was now reluctant in his heart, but he didn't dare to disobey Zhu Hao's words, so in the end, Gongsun Ce nodded and said:
"Weichen takes the order!"
The conversation between Zhu Hao and Gongsun Ce just now was all in a low voice, even Zhu Hao's last scolding was a whisper, the two deliberately suppressed their voices and muttered, Qin Qiong, who was kneeling on the ground, naturally didn't know what the two said.
As Gongsun Ce returned to the position of the main hall and sat down, he slapped the wood in his hand and said:
"Listen to the verdict!"
"Qin Bao, a person from Jinan Mansion, is suspected of being a war horse because of the illegal sale of horses of unknown origin, and now this government sentences you to exile and confiscate the army!"
"Before the army is confiscated, I will temporarily take it to the prison of this mansion!"
Gongsun Ce said, and once again patted the shocked wood and shouted:
"Quit!"
With a burst of "mighty" hall prestige, Qin Qiong was escorted down by two officials.
As soon as the two officials came into contact with Qin Qiong, Qin Qiong suddenly came back to his senses, and shouted again and again:
"Wronged!"
"My lord, the villain is wronged!"
"Wronged ......"
Zhu Hao saw that the scene was almost hot, so he stood up and shouted:
"Slow down!"
"Let him go first!"
The officials of Shuntian Mansion didn't know Zhu Hao, nor did they know Zhu Hao's identity, but they all saw it, and as soon as Zhu Hao sat in the hall, he stopped the movements in his hand and asked their Mansion Yin Gongsun Ce with his eyes.
Seeing this, Gongsun Ce hurriedly nodded slightly at the two officials who were escorting Qin Qiong, signaling them to act according to Zhu Hao's instructions.
After these two officials saw Gongsun Ce's signal, they let go of Qin Qiong.
Qin Qiong watched Zhu Hao speak and let him go, and immediately stepped forward and said:
"Thank you for the rescue!"
"I don't know what the adults are ......"
Zhu Hao listened to Qin Qiong's words, and said with a slight smile:
"This king is the king of letters, Zhu Youzhen!"
"This king just heard you cry out for wrongdoing, I don't know where you are wronged?"
As soon as Qin Qiong heard that Zhu Hao was, when the emperor's own brother believed in His Royal Highness, he immediately bowed to Zhu Hao and fell to the ground and said:
"The grass people don't know Mount Tai with their eyes, and they don't know that His Royal Highness the King of Faith is here!"
"Grass people Qin Bao, see His Royal Highness King Xin!"
With Qin Qiong's visit, the two officials who escorted Qin Qiong who had not retreated just now also hurriedly bowed to Zhu Hao and said:
"See His Royal Highness King Shin!"
Zhu Hao got up from the Taishi's chair and said to a few people:
"This king is traveling in micro-service today, let's get up!"
"No need to be polite!"
Zhu Hao said and looked at Qin Qiong and said:
"You haven't told this king what you said about the wrong, where the wrongs are!"
"As long as you say it clearly, this king will definitely make the decision for you!"
Qin Qiong stood up, listened to Zhu Hao's words, and hurriedly grabbed the life-saving straw to the drowning man, and said with a little excitement: "Your Highness, the horses sold by the grass people are really a gift from friends!" ”
"It's not a war horse!"
"Because of the long time, the grass people can't remember the names of their friends!"
"Please also ask the prince to know the truth!"
Zhu Hao didn't care about Qin Qiong's rhetoric, his purpose was to bring Qin Qiong under his command, so Zhu Hao didn't answer his opinion on Qin Qiong's rhetoric, but asked directly:
"This king sees that you are also a talent, and you must also be proficient in martial arts!"
"This king will go to Liaodong to quell the rebellion in the near future, I don't know if you are willing to follow this king!"
"As long as you can contribute to the country, whether you sell war horses or not, this king can forgive you for your innocence!"
"I wonder what you think?"
Qin Qiong listened to Zhu Hao's words, thinking that he could not only get rid of the disaster of prison, but also have the opportunity to make contributions, he didn't hesitate at the opportunity, so he hurriedly bowed down and said:
"Since His Highness can see the grass people, the grass people should serve the country!"
"Don't dare to refuse!"
