Chapter Seventy-Five: The Perfect Alibi (Part 2)
Xuyang Hou is really sad, every time he has a dispute with Li Lang, he always falls behind.
The first two times, I was forced to call each other's father.
This time, before Li Lang could make a move, he fell.
Looking at the lively courtiers, they exchanged their heads and whispered, but they didn't dare to hear it from this booming Hu family lonely.
When it was estimated that the morning morning was about to begin, they rushed to the palace gate.
The House of Parliament.
Emperor Jin sat on the dragon chair.
Li Lang and Zhao Yi followed a group of courtiers into the palace together.
Hu Zhe walked over with the support of his henchmen.
Emperor Jin was overjoyed when he saw Li Lang, and he asked, "Erlang, did you rush back overnight?" How was last night? β
Li Lang explained the matter of last night's incident in Yunfu to Emperor Jin clearly.
After listening to it for a long time, Emperor Jin sighed: "It's really unexpected for the Yun family to have such a thing, but fortunately, God blesses and leaves a lone seedling for the Yun family." β
Li Lang said: "Your Majesty, now that Yun girl lives in the yamen of the Criminal Department, the younger brother has asked someone to buy a few obedient girls and give her twelve hours a day, and there are also people patrolling outside the courtyard where she lives, so you can rest assured of her safety." β
Emperor Jin nodded and said: "This arrangement is very agreeable, Erlang did a good job." β
"The younger brother doesn't dare to be it."
Li Lang said humbly, suddenly looked at Hu Zhe opposite, and said to Emperor Jin:
"However, Xuyang Hou feels that Miss Yun is his fiancΓ©e and should go back to his Hu Mansion so as to ensure safety, but the younger brother feels that there is no safer place than the Criminal Department, and Miss Yun is an important witness in this case, and she is also willing to live in the Criminal Department, so the courtier brother is brave and disobeys the will of Xuyang Hou, and asks Your Majesty for forgiveness."
Emperor Jin saw through Li Lang's thoughts at a glance, he smiled, and said to Hu Zhe: "Xuyang Hou, Erlang acted recklessly, but what he said made sense, I don't know if you agree with him doing this?" β
Hu Zhe touched his chest with a faint pain and said: "No, it's not that the minister doesn't agree, it's really because Yunxiu is my unmarried wife, and she lives in someone else's place like this, I'm afraid there will be some gossip in the future, and if she lives in my Hu family, my Hu family can also protect her well, and she doesn't agree to live in, but she is just bewitched by someone." β
"Hehe, no one can bewitch Miss Yun, you can't, and neither can I."
Li Lang said very boldly: "Xuyang Hou, last night I found a jade pendant from the corpse of a maid, that jade pendant seems to be a thing in the palace, it seems to be related to your Xuyang Hou." β
"Above the court, please be cautious to King Xiang." Hu Zhe said: "The jade pendant you said, I have never seen it, and I never know, I only know that the sixth day of the second month is the birthday of the old lady of the Yun family, but the old lady and his old man don't like to be lively, so he didn't call us to go."
And that night, I went to the Drunken Immortal Building, and a group of friends had a drink, this, I have just told you King Xiang, if you really don't believe it, you can go to check. β
"I'll look it up, of course." Li Lang said: "If I find out something, I hope that Xuyang Hou will be able to cooperate with our criminal department at that time." β
Hu Zhe snorted and said, "Then naturally, I don't do anything wrong, I'm not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door in the middle of the night, and I'm afraid of you King Xiang?" β
"Alright." Emperor Jin interrupted them and said to Li Lang: "Erlang, take out the jade pendant you said, and I will ask someone to check it." β
Li Lang happily agreed, and after taking out the jade pendant, he saw an old eunuch next to the dragon chair walking down the steps and holding it with his own hands.
Hu Zhe looked at the moment when the jade pendant in Li Lang's hand was taken away by the old eunuch, and his heart was beating suddenly.
After the old eunuch took the jade pendant, he first bowed to the Jin Emperor and held the jade pendant in front of him.
Emperor Jin was going to ask the old eunuch to go down to investigate, but when he saw this jade pendant, he suddenly had an impression, and he asked: "Why is this jade pendant a bit like the one of the fruit?" β
Hu Zhe's heart chuckled.
The old eunuch replied: "It should be Princess Guo'er's, but I don't know how it fell outside, Your Majesty, not long ago, Princess Guo'er gave this jade pendant to Xuyang Hou." β
Rumble......
This sentence was like a thunderbolt.
The courtiers in the palace all set their eyes on Hu Zhe.
Hu Zhe laughed embarrassedly, and then said to Emperor Jin: "Your Majesty, this jade pendant in my father-in-law's hand may really be very similar to the one given to Weichen by Her Royal Highness the Princess, but Weichen's jade pendant has never been lost, don't believe it." β
As he spoke, he showed the jade pendant on the jade belt.
Emperor Jin and the courtiers looked at it together.
Sure enough, it's exactly the same, what the hell is going on? Hu Zhe took the opportunity to say: "My jade pendant has been worn on my body, His Royal Highness King Xiang sprayed people with blood, and asked His Majesty to be the master of the ministers." β
This time it was Emperor Jin's turn to be confused, and he asked the old eunuch beside him, "How many pairs of jade pendants are there in Guo'er?" Could it be that there is a one-to-one identical one? β
The old eunuch shook his head, "The old slave doesn't know this, so the old slave will go to check the files related to the jade pendant in the palace." β
Emperor Jin nodded, and then ordered: "Call Guo'er over, I will ask her personally." β
"Yes."
The old eunuch agreed, and went down with the jade pendant.
Hu Zhe watched the old eunuch go away with great determination.
Li Lang looked at Hu Zhe's expression on the other side, and said in his heart: He was really prepared.
In less than a moment, Princess Guo'er came to the council hall under the leadership of a group of eunuchs.
Guo'er bowed to Emperor Ying Ying of Jin and said, "Guo'er has seen my father. β
Emperor Jin showed a kind expression and beckoned to Guo'er: "Daughter, come to my father's side." β
Princess Guo'er ran up happily.
When Emperor Jin arrived at her, he asked, "Do you recognize this jade pendant?" β
In front of everyone's eyes, Princess Guo'er picked up the jade pendant, and said with bright eyes: "Isn't this the jade pendant I gave to Brother Zhe?" β
Hearing Princess Guo'er say this, everyone began to suspect Xuyang Hou again.
Hu Zhe unhurriedly took out the jade pendant on his body, and said to Guo'er on the side of the dragon chair: "Your Royal Highness Princess, look, your jade pendant is here." β
Princess Guo'er's eyes lit up again, "Eh, my jade pendant, father, that is my jade pendant." β
"I've been confused by you." Emperor Jin frowned and asked Guo'er, "Good daughter, how many such jade pendants do you have in your pavilion?" β
Princess Guo'er blinked a pair of innocent eyes, and said without thinking, "Just one piece." β
"Are you sure it's just one piece?"
"Just one piece, Guo'er doesn't dare to deceive his father."
"What the hell is going on?"
Just one piece?
Where did that other piece come from?
The courtiers and the Jin Emperor were very puzzled.
Only Li Lang frowned, looked at Guo'er, who was not at home with acting skills, and Xuyang Hou opposite, who had already seen through everything in his heart.
The old eunuch soon returned, and he bowed down to Emperor Jin and said, "The old slave should die, the file that records the jade pendant in Princess Guo'er's Pavilion was actually defiled by a cat last night." β
"Where did the cat come from, how can it be so coincidental?" Emperor Jin looked at the old eunuch suspiciously, and then looked suspiciously at the fruit beside him, as well as Hu Zhe below.
yes, how can it be so coincidental.
Li Lang already knew everything, Guo'er and Xuyang Hou were acting, and the cat in the palace was so coincidentally released in the file that recorded Princess Guo'er's jade pendant.
Hehe......
He didn't want to embarrass Emperor Jin anymore, and from the moment he returned to Handan, he didn't have much expectations for pulling Hu Zhe into the water with a jade pendant.
He has his own method, and this method is enough to bring Hu Zhe to justice.
After thinking about it for a while, he came out of the class and said: "Your Majesty, I think someone is secretly playing ghosts, but anyway, Xuyang Hou is the most suspicious, so it is unlikely that Miss Yun will live in Hu Mansion." β
Emperor Jin nodded and said to Hu Zhe: "Xuyang Hou, what else do you have to say now?" β
Hu Zhe said aggrievedly: "Your Majesty, the minister is innocent, the Hu family and the Yun family are world friends, why did the minister send someone to destroy their family's family for no reason?" β
Emperor Jin was very unhappy with the scene just now, he no longer messed with the other party, and said: "No matter what, that girl of the Yun family lives in the yamen of the criminal department, once the case is solved, I will let Erlang return to Zhao and give you an explanation to the Hu family." β
"Yes, the minister obeys the order...... Hu Zhe nodded helplessly, this game, he is completely passive.
After Emperor Jin finished talking about Hu Zhe, he said to Li Lang again: "Erlang, you have to investigate the case carefully, you must give me a good investigation, and I also allow you to summon people to your criminal department anytime and anywhere, no matter who it is." β
Oh, my God......
This sentence, clearly said to Li Lang, but it was actually beating Hu Zhe.
Brother Emperor is really kind to me.
He's giving me power.
"Your Majesty, my brother must solve this case well and give her Yun family an explanation."
Li Lang listened to Emperor Jin's words, and his heart was very happy, according to Emperor Jin's meaning, as long as he was summoned, he Hu Zhe couldn't help but come.
Hu Zhe's face was pale, he just wanted to go to the queen's aunt now and discuss with her.
Emperor Jin looked at the two of them, and then said, "Apart from the Yun family's affairs, is there anything else going on today?" β
Yigan Wenwu did not speak.
Zhang Gelao, the head of the courtiers, replied: "Your Majesty, now that General Zhengnan is at war with the Song State, it is best for us to write a letter to tell him that his family's case is being investigated, and we will definitely give him justice, and also ask him to fight in the south with peace of mind, and don't be distracted by this." β
Emperor Jin nodded and said, "What Zhang Aiqing said is very true, but I should write this letter myself." β
"Your Majesty."
"Your Majesty's handwritten letter will definitely be able to calm Yunhou's heart."
The civil and military clapped their ass.
Emperor Jin waved his hand and said, "If there is nothing else, go down to the court." β
As he spoke, Emperor Jin stood up, took Princess Guo'er, and left the council hall under the eyes of a civil and military officer.
Subsequently, the courtiers also dispersed.
When Li Lang was about to raise his feet and leave, Hu Zhe stopped him behind him, "Li Yanxin, you'd better hand over Yunxiu." β
Li Lang turned his head and glanced at him, "Your suspicion is so big, I don't dare." β
Hu Zhe looked at him and said, "You don't have evidence, I have a complete alibi." β
Li Lang shrugged, "Who knows, let's wait and see." β
As he spoke, he went straight out of the palace.
Hu Zhe shouted behind Li Lang: "Wait and see, just wait and see, I'm still afraid that you won't succeed?" If you don't have evidence, you won't be able to bring me down, and if you blindly want to frame me, I will have the means to make you feel bad. β
Li Lang just shook his hand and didn't speak.
