In the capital, heavy snow is falling.

When the Sulu car arrived, it was already midnight.

It was pitch black, and only the lanterns at the head of the castle glowed a warm yellow in the heavy snow, showing the way home for travelers who had traveled far away.

The land battle went to call the door, put down the hanging basket on the head of the city, and came down with two guards.

When the two of them saw Lu Zhan who was just wearing winter robes, their expressions immediately became respectful, and they were able to send a captain of the sixth grade to call the door in the dark night, and there was only one person in the capital.

"I've seen the prince, the little one will open the door for the prince."

The city gate guards didn't dare to slack off, and after meeting Su Lu, they immediately roared at the city head to open the door.

The gate opened, and the forbidden army holding torches verified Su Lu's identity, bowed down and drove into the city.

The streets of the capital are not yet completely dark, and most of the shops on both sides of the long street have been closed, but there are still a small part of the Qinglou Song Shop lit up, and the sound of silk and bamboo comes in from outside, and the sound is vast.

"Go back to the palace."

Su Lu commanded and said, now that the palace is definitely locked, there is no need to open the palace door again.

The car was driving on the long street, because the snow was heavy, and a layer of snow had accumulated on the road, and the creaking sound was incessant.

The lanterns hanging at the entrance of the palace swayed back and forth, the vermilion gate was closed, and the courtyard was also filled with the sound of silk and bamboo.

As soon as Huzi wanted to call the door, he was stopped by Su Lu.

"The eldest lady is not directing the war in Rouran, how can there be a sound of silk and bamboo in this mansion?"

Su Lu was a little annoyed, he was fighting hard outside, and the soldiers were bleeding and sweating, but these subordinates would enjoy it.

"Go, bring me the governor of Dingxiang Wei Jingcheng."

Lu Zhan commanded twice, handed out an official certificate, and the second son took a few guards to turn over and get on his horse and go towards the inner city.

Half an hour passed, and the second son finally brought back the governor of Dingxiang Weidu.

Excited by the cold snowflakes on his face, Pingqi was already fully awake.

This is the prince's personal soldiers, the prince is not commanding the war in the north, is it over in the north, or is the prince returning ahead of schedule?

In the middle of the night, what did you hand me over to the gate of the palace?

Ping Qi was apprehensive in his heart, but he was not afraid, the prince was the most reasonable, he was not derelict in his duties, and the prince was determined to reprimand himself a few words.

"Pingqi, I called you in the middle of the night, and this king will accompany you first."

Su Lu's voice rang out.

Pingqi was startled, turned over and dismounted, and saluted Su Lu respectfully.

"Lord Wang, you are too polite, it is the duty of the last general to serve His Majesty and the prince, and the prince can just tell him if he has something."

Su Lu pointed to his palace and asked, "What's the situation in this palace?" I'm not here, my uncle's nephews are in the martial arts hall and in the deep palace, what's the situation here? ”

Ping Qi let out a sigh of relief when he heard this, it turned out that this was the case.

"Lord Qiyu, you and Her Royal Highness the princess often do not return to the palace, and the subordinates in this palace lack control, so they have become arrogant, relying on your power, they have done a lot of evil things."

Su Lu nodded, and commanded: "You Dingxiao Wei has a case file, go, bring Li Dazhuang to me, and the soldiers of the patrol battalion will be transferred, and those who should be arrested will be arrested, and those who should be beheaded will be beheaded, and no one will be left for any offense." ”

As soon as Su Lu gave the order, Ping Qi shook his spirits.

In the past, he came to visit the palace, but he ate many closed-door soups, one was that the prince was not there, and the other was that he was familiar with the prince's temperament, and he didn't dare to give gifts to these porter housekeepers, so he was made difficult to enter, so he was also quite dissatisfied with these Diao slaves.

Now that there is an opportunity, there is naturally revenge.

Soon, the people from the patrol battalion arrived, cooperated with the case file obtained by the Dingxiang Governor's Mansion, and began to knock on the door.

"Bang Bang Bang"

The land battle began to knock on the door.

"Who?"

A perverse cry sounded inside the door: "In the middle of the night, disturbing people's dreams." ”

"Haven't you slept yet?"

Lu Zhan asked outside the door.

The voice inside the door immediately became sharper: "Lao Tzu slept or not, don't worry about your!" ”

"Open the door and see who dares to come to the palace."

"If the prince is not here, these people dare to bully the door, and the prince of Ming'er is back, see if I don't sue them."

"Wake up the guards, the ones who came to make trouble."

There was chaos in the palace, and in the midst of all kinds of drunken talk, the lights were lit up in the courtyard of the palace.

Su Lu's brows furrowed, just because of Lu Zhan's two words, there was such a thing in this palace, and these slaves were innocent.

Ping Qi stood sideways next to Su Lu, and said cautiously: "Lord Wang, the last general will receive news that Lord Tan of Dali Temple has collected evidence of these slaves bullying and dominating the market, and wants to refer to you." ”

"Lu Shilang from the Criminal Department, as well as a few sects, have also got some things, and with them, I want to join you."

Su Lu's brows furrowed, it seemed that he had not been in the capital for a long time, and these people had forgotten the appearance of the heads of the people they had killed back then.

"Go, find the people from Dali Temple, and say that my Su Lu will solve the case tonight, and the slaves of the palace are rampant in the township, and I will kill a few heads for them to see."

"Li Dazhuang"

"The Last Will Be"

Li Dazhuang put on armor and stood in front of Su Lu, his face full of respect.

Su Lu instructed and said: "Go, follow Lord Pingqi, and invite Lord Tan from Dali Temple, Lu Shilang from the Criminal Department, and all the adults of the Three Law Divisions to come over and try the cases of these Diao slaves." ”

"This king wants to cut off a few heads, and recall to these people the scene when the heads of the people killed by this king were rolling."

Li Dazhuang bowed down in response, and raised his arm.

"Jiawei Battalion, Song Duwei, you take people to invite Lord Tan of Dali Temple, remember, all the officials of Dali Temple, there is no shortage of one on this list."

"Yiwei Battalion, Ding Duwei, you take someone to invite the road squire of the Criminal Department......"

……

The soldiers of the patrol battalion divided into several routes, and went to the mansions of the lords written on the list of Dingxiang guards, dragged them out of the bed, wrapped them in clothes casually, and came to the palace.

Tan Songcheng is the chief official of Dali Temple, in the past, he was high up, tried cases and decided cases, and no one in the capital did not give him some face, even His Majesty today will not refute his face.

He was supported by several soldiers from the patrol battalion, and by the time he arrived at the gate of the palace, he was almost scared to death.

Did he collude with the ministers of the clan and impeach the prince, the prince was going to execute himself.

"Lord Tan, this king invited you to come over late at night, to try the palace Diao Nu, this is the case file of Ding Xiangwei, do you want to take a look?"

The thick case file was thrown on the snow in front of Tan Songcheng.

Tan Songcheng breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, the prince in person, then it would be fine, I thought that he would be cut with a black knife, but now that the prince is in person, even if he impeaches the prince in person, it is also the right of the officials of Dali Temple, even His Majesty has to listen.

"Lord Wang, this is not in line with the system."

Tan Songcheng tidied up his clothes and said with a cold face.

Hmph, no matter how domineering the prince is, he can still cut Lao Tzu down. If I get Lao Tzu here late at night, I'm just unhappy, and I'm going to show it if I'm unhappy.

What about the prince, you can still cut off my head.
