Chapter 489: Liver and gallbladder splitting
"Marquis Qinghe, is what Jiang Heng and the general said true?" Sitting on the dragon chair, Qin Shi Huang turned his head to look at Chen Xu.
Chen Xu stood up with a calm face and arched his hand: "Yes, what Lord Jiang and the general said is correct, because it was late at that time, the mountain bandits' lair was chaotic, and Zhao Zhe was indeed injured by my guards in the melee, and then interrogated the mountain bandits and knew that he was the son of Lord Zhao of the Ministry of Rites, so the minister felt that the matter was important, so he discussed with Fang Kuan, the county lieutenant of Pheasant County, and carried Zhao Zhe down the mountain for treatment, and then notified the county commander Jiangbei Pavilion, because there were too many people involved, and the Jiang county commander did not dare to make the decision on his own, so he notified the Wancheng County Governor's Mansion, After that, the minister was not very clear, after all, the minister was only in Qinghe Town at that time, and he could not control the situation at all, and Jiang Beiting also told the minister at that time that Zhao Gao was powerful, and once he was tried for the crime of robbing grain by bandits, Zhao Zhe would die, and then it would inevitably attract Zhao Gao's revenge, in fact, this was also to protect the minister from being implicated......"
"Qinghe Hou, don't spew blood, although Zhao Zhe is my son, but if he commits such a big crime, Zhao will definitely kill his relatives in righteousness, how can he retaliate!" Although Zhao Gao's mind was chaotic at this time, when he heard Chen Xu pull this matter on him, he couldn't help jumping up and yelling.
"Hehe, why is Lord Zhao so excited, Ben Hou is just deducing according to human nature, if you were not the order of the CRRC government at that time, and Zhao Zhe was not your son, I am afraid that Zhao Zhe was cut into seventeen or eighteen paragraphs at that time to close the case, why stay until today to hide in the palace and prepare to frame me! What's more, Ben Hou heard that Zhao Zhe was recommended by you to Your Majesty, and now that such a heinous thing has happened in the palace, I don't know how Lord Zhao will explain? Chen Xu sneered
Chen Xu's words seemed to remind Qin Shi Huang, and he turned his head to look at Zhao Gao: "Zhao Gao, you also know the inside story, but you colluded with Jiang Heng to conceal me, and recommended Zhao Zhe to enter the palace as a eunuch, what are your intentions?" ”
Zhao Gao knelt on the ground with a frightened pop, and said with a pale face: "Your Majesty~, minister...... The minister is also a beloved son who concealed this matter, and recommended Zhao Zhe to enter the palace because he has become a eunuch, so that the harem eunuchs take care of the princesses and princesses, and it is also for the safety of the harem, there is no selfishness, and please Your Majesty to investigate! ”
Qin Shi Huang slapped his palm on the imperial case and stood up and shouted angrily: "I will naturally find out, where Zhao Wei is, take this eunuch down and interrogate him strictly, and all the eunuchs and eunuchs who are involved in the harem and Zhao Zhe will be sent to Lishan to build a mausoleum after being corrupted, and they will never be released!" ”
"Oh~" Shaofu ordered Zhao Wei to stand up and receive the order, and then several guards rushed up and dragged the eunuch out of the court.
"The Criminal Department ordered Yin Wu to obey the order and detain Jiang Heng and Zhao Gao into the prison of the Criminal Department for interrogation!"
"Oh~" Yin Wu gave his hand.
"Zhongshu Province Li Xiang listens to the order!"
"The minister is here!" Li Si quickly stood up.
"Issued an edict and sent someone to Nanyang to detain Wancheng County Shoujiang Beiting and County Lieutenant Gao Xun, and wait for the matter to find out the original and punish the crime together! At the same time, it is rumored that the former Wancheng officials who have migrated to the border wasteland, all the sins will be added to the first! ”
"Obey the order!"
Just when several forbidden troops rushed into the main hall to escort Jiang Heng and Zhao Gao away, Meng Yi, who had never spoken up, stood up: "Your Majesty, in fact, there is no need to spread the word about the former Wancheng officials who have migrated to the border wasteland, and there is no need to add to their crimes!" ”
"Why?" Not only Qin Shi Huang was stunned, but Li Si and many other officials turned their heads to look at Meng Yi.
"Because they're all dead!" Meng Yi replied with a calm face.
"Dead?" There was chaos in the courtroom.
"You said that all the Wancheng officials who wandered have died?" Qin Shi Huang stared at Meng Yi deadly.
"Yes, it's not just those officials, but together with the families of these officials, a total of 179 people died...... Meng Yi took out a fold from his sleeve robe and opened it and read: "Thirty-four members of Ma Boyuan's family died in Daijun, and their bones were thrown into the wilderness; Yongpo's family of twenty-two died in the upper valley, and their bones were thrown in the valley; Cao Kun's family of twenty-eight died in Yanmen; Tong Jing's family of eighteen died in Shangjun, and their bones were eaten by wild wolves and could not be found......"
As Meng Yi read them out one by one, the quiet needle in the entire court hall could be heard.
"Blindfolding...... Lord Meng, how are these people ...... Why are they all dead? After a while, an official stammered.
"This is going to ask the Ministry of Rites to order Zhao Gao Zhao?" Meng Yi turned his head to look at Zhao Gao and said coldly.
"Meng Yi, you ...... Do not accuse me, for what does the death of these men have to do with me? Zhao Gao was held by several forbidden soldiers, and at this time, his face was bloodless and he looked at Meng Yi, but there was infinite fear in his eyes.
If he just concealed Zhao Zhe's affairs, the matter would be dismissed at most, but if the secret killing of these people was exposed, he Zhao Gao would inevitably add to the crime, and his head might fall to the ground.
"The old man has never slandered anyone, Zhao Gao, secretly sent his retainer Zhao Po and domestic servants to collude with his son-in-law Yan Le to forge a migration order, and migrate Ma Boyuan Yongpo and others to a wild place and then kill and throw corpses into the wilderness, intending to cover up the crime, but the old man has now found out clearly, and it is useless for you to quibble!" Meng Yi gently dusted off his clothes and said lightly.
"Lord Meng, you have proof!" Li Si came back to his senses and asked.
"Of course there is!" Meng Yi nodded and bowed to the emperor: "Your Majesty, Zhao Gao avenged his son Zhao Zhe, secretly sent his retainer Zhao Po and his servants to kill all the officials who participated in Zhao Zhe's affairs in Wancheng at the beginning, completely ignoring my Great Qin law, the means are extremely cruel, please ask Your Majesty to treat Zhao Gao with death!" ”
Qin Shi Huang was silent for a long time and then asked in a cold voice: "Just as Li Xiang asked, does Meng Qing have any evidence?" ”
"Yes, the minister has a witness, it is Zhao Gao's son-in-law Yan Le, these people are all Zhao Gao instructed Yan Le to arrange people to kill them, and the minister asks His Majesty to interrogate Yan Le, the warden of the Criminal Department!"
"Meng Yi, you don't want to spew blood......"
"Bang~"
Before Zhao Gao finished speaking, Qin Shi Huang slammed his fist on the desk again: "Detain Yan Le and go to the palace, I will personally interrogate Yan Le!" ”
"Huh~" A confessor ran out of the court hall and roared away with a group of forbidden troops.
In the quiet waiting, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were all nervous and panicked, and many of them were pale with trembling legs.
Qin Shi Huang was completely angry, Daqin established the country by law to achieve today's glory, and he has never been killed because of the violation of the law by his courtiers, since he became the king of Qin, no one has ever been killed for the crime of rebellion, even if he was attacked by Ran Feng in Wancheng last time, Wancheng officials were so derelict in their duties that he did not think of killing one of them, but let Tingwei and Yushi carefully interrogate and then sentence and punish, so none of the bureaucrats in Wancheng died at that time, but were sentenced to exile according to the severity of the circumstances.
He always thought that the law was the cornerstone of the country's stability, and as long as everything was done according to the law, his Great Qin Empire would be forever solid, but he never expected that the law he relied on to maintain the country's capital would be like a broken net full of holes in the eyes of Zhao Gao and others, and it was completely useless.
One hundred and seventy-nine men were killed in the wilderness without a trace, and he remained in the dark, unaware.
Qin Shi Huang sat on the dragon chair, and a slight tremor could be seen in his body.
"Report, Your Majesty, Yan Le brought ~" A forbidden army entered the main hall to report.
"Bring it on!" Qin Shi Huang shouted angrily, and soon several forbidden soldiers escorted a man in his thirties wearing a six-rank official uniform into the main hall.
"Are you Zhao Gao's son-in-law Yan Le?" Qin Shi Huang's icy voice sounded again above the quiet hall.
Yan Le hurriedly knelt down and bowed: "Yes, the minister is Yan Le, and Zhao Gao is my father-in-law!" ”
"Doctor Fang said that Zhao Gao instructed you to arrange for someone to kill Ma Boyuan and others, a total of 179 people, but is there such a thing?"
Yan Le's face straightened up, looking at Meng Yi who was staring at him, his mind couldn't help but churn up the eerie and terrifying scene in the Yama Palace, gritted his teeth and nodded: "Yes, in order to avenge his son Zhao Zhe, Zhao Gao instructed me to collude with the officials of the Criminal Department to change and forge the migration order, and then let the retainer Zhao Po and the servants kill Ma Boyuan and others in the wilderness......"
"Yan Le, you...... Why are you framing me? Zhao Gao was already frightened at this time, and from the moment Meng Yi said Yan Le's name, he had a feeling of impending disaster, and a thick aura of death enveloped him.
"Zhao Gao, why did I frame you, you instructed me to collude with the officials of the Criminal Department to forge the migration order, and arranged for Zhao Po to kill Ma Boyuan and more than 100 other people, these are all facts, you can't quibble if you want to, let me tell you the truth, your disgusting daughter like a fat pig has been killed by me a few days ago in adultery with the groom, housekeeper, and cook in my house, and now your son who is neither male nor female has also been killed, hahahaha, you are retribution, everything you have done The king of Yama in the underworld has already arranged for the ghost to inquire clearlyI also wrote a confession and told the king of Yama, who said that he would detain you into the underworld and send you to the eighteenth layer of hell, and endure the torture of eighteen torture instruments such as tongue pulling, iron trees, and copper branding for 500 years, and your soul will be scattered and turned into ashes, and you will never be reincarnated again...... Hahahaha"
Yan Le knelt on the ground and laughed wildly on the top of the hall like a madman.
And the words he said were like a cold wind blowing through the entire hall, and the civil and military officials and Qin Shi Huang couldn't help but shiver.
Regarding the things about the Netherworld and the King of Yama and the ghosts, the things that have been spread in Xianyang in the past few days have been boiling and have noses and eyes, of course, they have all been passed down from the Silver Moon Pavilion.
However, when some good people wanted to find the strange pair of grandchildren to inquire about the situation, they found that the old man and the little girl disappeared as if out of thin air, and they were never seen in the whole Xianyang.
"Be bold Yan Le, don't pretend to be crazy, how can Lang Lang Qiankun come to the underworld and ghosts! Tell us everything you know! Ting Wei drank loudly.
