Not far from the words, dozens of cavalry horses had already turned out, and everyone had their arrows wound and knives out of their sheaths, and in the blink of an eye, Wei Qing was surrounded. It seemed that the officers were in charge of following Wei Qing to prevent him from escaping, and when they saw the sergeant coming, they immediately retreated.

"Wei Qing, come with us!" One of the officers shouted.

Wei Qing sneered: "Where to go?" Why do you say you can just go with you? ”

The officer unfurled the order in his hand: "The military department is still handwritten by the order!" Follow us to the military department! ”

Wei Qing laughed angrily. Is Gu Shangshu crazy? Yesterday failed to harm him, and today he actually sent troops to arrest him, he wants to see, how is this review Shangshu going to frame him, is it directly locked up in prison?

However, Wei Qing was wrong this time. Gu Shangshu really didn't want to put Wei Qing in prison. Because what he wanted was to put Wei Qing to death as soon as possible. Only by killing Wei Qing as soon as possible can he get his son's safe return, can he not be threatened, and can he get the three thousand taels of gold from the Jin Army. said that for the sake of money, for his own life, for the sake of his son, in short, in short, he must kill Wei Qing, and as soon as possible! Since his first plan was unsuccessful, he had to use the second plan before Wei Qing left the city, and he must not let Wei Qing go back alive!

Gu Shangshu sat in the main hall, his face pale. Outside the door, with a commotion, an officer walked in, clasped his fists and saluted: "Lord Yushangshu, the criminal Wei Qing is here!" ”

"Biography!" Gu Shangshu only said one word.

Wei Qing strode in, his waist straight, and his steps were strong.

"The last general, Wei Qing, the general and the general Shangshu!" Wei Qing's voice was loud but not high-pitched, and his tone was smooth but not sluggish, "The last general is about to return to the team, I don't know what instructions Lord Shangshu has to summon again?" ”

Syllable! Gu Huairen slapped the table: "Wei Qing, you kneel!" Are you guilty? ”

Wei Qing didn't kneel, not only did he not kneel, he didn't even lower his head, he looked directly at Gu Huairen: "If you want to see Lord Shangshu, of course the last general will kneel, but Lord Shangshu is now accusing the last general of being guilty and should kneel, and the last general will introspect himself, I don't know what the crime is, so I can't kneel, and I ask Lord Shangshu to forgive me!" ”

Gu Huairen was furious, but he didn't expect Wei Qing to use this as an excuse to even kneel. He shouted angrily: "Last night, you plotted to assassinate the Admiral of the Nine Gates, and you dare to say that you are not guilty? Your murder weapons have been found red-handed! With that, he raised his hand and raised a sword.

Wei Qing was startled, and subconsciously reached out and touched his waist, only then did he remember that the emperor suddenly arrived yesterday, he put the sword and the sheath aside, and then was directly brought into the palace by the emperor, the sword and the sheath were forgotten in the military department, and he couldn't help but hate it in his heart, never imagined that Gu Shangshu would be framed on this ground.

However, Wei Qing didn't know that even if he hadn't forgotten his sword in the military department, Gu Shangshu would still frame him, which was one of the strategies that Wei Qing had thought of before he came. It's just that since Wei Qing's sword is the reason, it saves a lot of things, so Gu Shangshu made a small adaptation and used this sword to frame him.

Wei Qing sneered: "Lord Gu, Your Excellency is really forgetful, this sword was put aside by His Majesty the Emperor yesterday, and then it was lost in the military department for a while, and it was not seen in Lord Gu's hand until today, could it be that Lord Gu thought that the last general could take things out of thin air and kill people through the wall?" ”

"The old man did see you take off the sword before the emperor arrived, but after you left, the old man didn't see this sword in the military department at all!" Gu Huairen immediately denied Wei Qing's evidence.

Wei Qing wanted to give himself a slap in the face. The evidence of his talent is just too stupid. The emperor had many guards when he came, so he offered to put his sword aside, and even if Gu Shangshu denied it, many guards would testify. But as soon as the emperor left, all the guards also left, Wei Qing followed behind, and no one in the guards paid attention to whether he picked up the sword again, and Gu Huairen was the only one who could prove that the sword was forgotten in the military department, but if he wanted to prove it, wouldn't it be a plot with the tiger? Therefore, Gu Huairen admitted that Wei Qing had put down the sword, but firmly denied that Wei Qing had lost the sword in the military department. In this way, Wei Qing will not be able to find a witness.

Wei Qing immediately changed the evidence: "Since Lord Shangshu said that he didn't see it, and the last general had no choice, who let only the adult be present at that time?" However, to say that the last general assassinated last night, Lord Shangshu is a little ridiculous, last night the last general has been talking with the concubine Niangniang for a long time, but I don't know how to assassinate? If Lord Shangshu wants a witness, you might as well ask the concubine for verification. ”

Gu Huairen's eyes suddenly narrowed: "Wei Dutong, do you mean that you didn't leave the concubine's room last night?" ”

When Wei Qing heard this, he only felt that his scalp was fried. He could have replied "yes" literally, but the problem is that the ambiguity hidden in the sentence is enough to kill a person, and no evidence is needed at all. Whoever becomes the emperor will not bother to find evidence for this matter, if you find a reason to kill people without conclusive evidence, this is the only reason. Although Wei Qing and Wei Zifu did stay in the same room for a whole night, their relationship was that of sister and brother, not lovers, and there was no personal relationship between men and women, the question is, can this matter be explained? How could the emperor be stupid enough to investigate and understand such a thing? No matter who the emperor is, their way of dealing with it can only be the same: kill them all!

Wei Qing scolded Gu Huairen for being a bastard in his heart, but he wanted to hurriedly come back: "The last general didn't say that, what the last general means is that when the last general and the noble concubine Niangniang have finished talking, it is already very late, and the last general has not left the palace at all, and he didn't leave the palace until this morning." ”

Gu Huairen laughed: "Wei Dutong, do you want to tell me that you won't go over the wall?" ”

Wei Qing was shocked and angry, he didn't expect Gu Shangshu to actually play a scoundrel. I was at a loss for what I could do, but I heard someone at the door say, "The adult's case is not very clear." ”

As soon as this sentence came out, Wei Qing was very happy, and Gu Huairen was annoyed. It turned out that it was Jiang Zhongjiang who spoke.

Jiang Shilang walked into the house with a smile and bowed to Gu Huairen: "Come uninvited, please forgive Gu Shangshu." ”

Gu Huairen also smiled and returned the salute: "I was about to ask the waiter to try this case together." ”

Both men had smiles on their faces.

Both men stared sharply at each other.

Jiang Shilang sat down and continued the topic: "Since it was Wei Qing who assassinated, he should be confronted first, how can Wei Qing be tried alone?" Please also check it out. ”

How could Gu Huairen not know this truth, but since he was deliberately framed, how could he be stupid enough to take the initiative to confront him? It's just that since Jiang Shilang said it bluntly, he really didn't dare to disagree, otherwise this book would be involved, but it was clear that he Gu Huairen knew the law and violated the law, and the result would inevitably make people suspect that he intended to frame Wei Qing. He laughed and said, "Jiang Shilang is right, the old man is about to let Wei Qing confront you." Last night, it was the Assassin who was discovered by the Admiral's guards, and they all saw Wei Qing's face, so it was good for them to confront each other. As he spoke, he was secretly proud in his heart, fortunately he had prepared in advance and found two guards to help him complete his lie, Jiang Shilang seemed to have the advantage in this round, but in fact he just fell into the trap he had set in advance, didn't you advocate confrontation? It's easy to do, let's confront each other, and when the two guards all identify Wei Qing as the assassin, they don't even need to be tried, and they directly convict Wei Qing of the death penalty!

"Legon Guard!" Gu Shangshu ordered, and he was a little impatient to see the confrontation scene.

Jiang Zhong suddenly beckoned to Wei Qing and motioned for Wei Qing to come in front of him.

Wei Qing walked over slowly.

"Wei Qing, you're about to be confronted, if you admit your mistake now, you can still take the initiative to surrender." Jiang Zhong's words were very threatening, but his tone was not harsh.

"The last will be innocent." Wei Qing only replied with four words.

"Okay, you kneel, wait for the confrontation to be completed, if you are not guilty, the official will help you up with his own hands, and if you are guilty, the official will never spare you." Jiang Zhong was still strange, saying extremely threatening words in a calm tone.

Wei Qing slowly knelt down.

He didn't kneel down to Gu Shangshu because he didn't trust Gu Shangshu at all, but Jiang Shilang was different, at least, Jiang Shilang was an upright person.

Footsteps were heard outside the door, and the two guards had already reached the door.

Jiang Zhong suddenly picked up his cloak and covered Wei Qing at once, although Wei Qing was tall, but because he was kneeling, the cloak wrapped Wei Qing in it. "Don't move, don't speak, I don't want to see you now, and I don't want to hear your voice!" Jiang Shilang's voice suddenly became very stern.

Gu Shangshu was watching from the side, but suddenly saw Jiang Shilang's strange behavior, and was about to ask questions, when the two guards had already walked into the room. "See your lord!" The two said in unison.

"No courtesy." Gu Shangshu said, "You two take a look, that person is 。。。。。。 He stopped talking abruptly.

He wanted to say, "You two take a look, that person is the assassin you saw last night", but Wei Qing knelt in front of Jiang Zhong, his back was facing these two people, and he wrapped a big cloak, where could he see it?

"Jiang Shilang, what are you doing here?" Gu Huairen's tone clearly revealed dissatisfaction.

Jiang Zhong smiled, and there was a hint of sarcasm in that smile: "The lower officials are for the sake of justice. Without waiting for Gu Shangshu to ask any more questions, he said to the two guards, "But the two of you clearly saw the appearance of this assassin?" ”

"Yes!" The two of them didn't know why, but they just answered according to the agreement with Gu Shangshu in advance.

Jiang Zhong immediately continued: "In that case, please ask the two of you, one on the left and one on the right, each take a pen and paper, and write down whether this assassin is tall or short, fat or thin, square or round, and bearded or beardless on his face. He said in one breath, turned his head and smiled at Gu Shangshu: "The official has ordered, Lord Shangshu, please sit down." Come on, put pen and paper! ”
