Chapter 685: Confused Case (6)
The prince is strong, the queen of martial arts is ruthless, in this situation, the living space of the Yue Wangfu is limited, if you want to live a nourishing life, then you have to meet the source left and right, if it is attacked on both sides, how can you live that day, this is also the situation that Li Zhen is trying to avoid, but now it is impossible to avoid it, the queen of martial arts has to prove that the case is Li Xian's doing, and Li Xian wants Li Zhen to prove his innocence, Li Zhen became a mouse in the bellows and was angry at both ends, and then he was forced by Li Xian again, It's weird if it's not messy.
"Eighth Uncle doesn't need to worry about it, after a thorough investigation, everything can be discussed again, what do you say, huh?"
Li Xian is a master who doesn't see rabbits and doesn't scatter eagles, before he fails to prove his "innocence", Li Xian can't give Li Zhen a guarantee, of course, in order to stabilize Li Zhen, the hints between words are indispensable.
"That's good, the old minister will dare to let the next person wait for the first or second investigation."
Li Zhen did want to make a deal with Li Xian here, but he really had no intention of searching the palace, not only because he was worried about the loss of his reputation, but more importantly, he wanted to leave a tail for this matter.
"Well, that's fine, Uncle Eight, let's go and get busy first, and the palace will be waiting here."
Although he was not afraid of rumors, if he could avoid it, Li Xian was willing to pull himself out of the chaos, and after hearing Li Zhen's agreement to collect the testimony of the people of the East Palace, Li Xian's originally solemn face immediately eased a little, and he commanded very kindly.
"No, Your Highness, please wait, the old minister will go back when he goes."
At this point, Li Zhen had no choice but to bow down and answer the promise, and went to the palace to arrange for someone to record the confession without mentioning it.
"Your Highness."
Not long after Li Zhenfang went, Li Yaodong, who was dressed in a strong suit, had already strode into the room, rushed to Li Xian's side, and bowed down to make a big salute.
"Well, what's going on?"
Li Xian raised his hand in a vain manner, signaled Li Yaodong to be polite, and asked expressionlessly.
"Everything has been arranged, and Wang Kuan and the brothers have already set their sights on the target."
Li Xian's question was a bit beginning and end, but Li Yaodong understood what Li Xian was asking, so he didn't dare to be lazy, and hurriedly answered.
"That's fine, keep watching, don't alarm that guy, go."
Li Xian's indifferent face showed a look of relief, but there was no nonsense, just a simple explanation.
"No!"
Li Yaodong responded neatly, turned around, and walked out of the study.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the old minister is fortunate to have fulfilled his mission, the investigation has been completed thoroughly, all the testimony is here, please look at it."
There were a lot of people on duty in the East Palace yesterday, together with the palace guards, there were more than 300 people, even if Li Zhen brought a lot of people, it took more than an hour to finish recording everyone's confessions, although the matter was finished, but Li Zhen did not have the slightest excitement, but was depressed enough, and even if he was depressed, he did not dare to complain, as soon as all the matters were done, he immediately marched into the study with a thick stack of confessions, and reported to Li Xianyu respectfully.
"Well, there is Eighth Uncle Lao, and whether the palace is innocent or not has to depend on Eighth Uncle to bother a lot."
Li Xian didn't ask people to pick up the stack of documents that Li Zhen held above his head, but just said quietly.
"Your Highness is polite, the existing testimony can prove that Your Highness is innocent and wronged, and the old minister will be guilty of impeaching Sun San for perjury and deceiving the king!"
Being pinched by Li Xian like this, Li Zhen's heart was really crooked enough, but he didn't dare to come out in front of Li Xian, so he could only reply with a respectful face.
"The eighth uncle is doing things, the palace is very relieved, come, show the eighth uncle."
Li Xiannai is the identity of the crown prince, and it is naturally a legitimate thing to pinch his subordinates, of course, he must have a degree of proportion, and at this time, Li Zhen has done things according to his own wishes, Li Xianzi will no longer have any difficulties for him, he smiled very kindly and waved his hand, and asked the eunuchs who accompanied him to bring Li Zhen a brocade.
"Your Highness!"
Although Li Zhen's body is still healthy, after all, he is an old person, and he has been busy surviving for most of the day, and his waist and legs have long been a little weak.
"Eighth uncle, now that the case is still chaotic, I don't know where Eighth Uncle plans to start? If you need to get to the palace, just open your mouth. ”
Although his innocence has been proven, the matter is still not over, and Li Xian doesn't want this case to cause any more waves.
"Your Royal Highness, the old minister is now in great distress, alas, the old minister is getting older, and his physical strength is not good, this case is afraid that the old minister is powerless, hehe, don't hide it from His Royal Highness, the old minister is thinking about asking His Majesty to resign."
Li Zhen is an old and cunning person, don't look at the dough that was handled by Li Xian before, but when it was really time to get to the point, he slipped and grinned and refused to sit down on the topic.
Oh, this old man is really slippery, interesting!
Li Xian is a shrewd individual, and he understands that Li Zhen is calculating something as soon as he hears it, and he just wants to get more benefits, but he doesn't care too much, after all, Li Xian really doesn't want this case to drag on for too long, as long as it is not too much, the benefits that should be given, Li Xian will not be stingy.
"Eighth Uncle is too modest, you are at the peak of the Spring and Autumn Period, you should shine, how can you say the old word, too modest, too modest."
Although he was ready to give benefits, Li Xian was not a fool, and he didn't plan to talk about it as soon as he came up, so he laughed, pretending not to know what Li Zhen's intentions were, and running away with nonsense.
"His Royal Highness has an overreputation, the old minister is indeed an old man, alas, the old minister has always been conceited and refuses to be a subordinate, but after returning to the house today, I saw that the youngest son of the old minister is already with long hair, and he will not be able to accept the old, alas, the old minister is old, I only hope that my children and grandchildren can grow, but unfortunately, all the sons are all busy generations, Chong'er will not say, Wen'er can get an inch, all rely on the support of His Royal Highness, but Qian'er and Chun'er are really not angry, they have been in the court for many years, and they have not grown, and they have always been in the ministry, which is really not a thing, If you can go to the local area to experience a thing or two, maybe you can also have a time to become a tool. ”
Li Zhen is an old man, who doesn't care if Li Xian accepts the offer or not, he takes care of himself and pulls a lot of money, and the bend goes around left and right to get to the point, and he blatantly wants to seek officials for Li Qian and Li Chun.
"Well, what the eighth uncle said is true, it's good for young people to have a little experience, and the palace will arrange to go back to Xiangzhou to serve as the magistrate of the county first, if there are achievements, it can be promoted."
Regarding Li Zhen's shameless behavior, Li Xianzi had expected it, but he didn't intend to go along with it casually, so he smiled and gave a seemingly reasonable suggestion.
"Your Royal Highness Shengming, the old minister also thought so, but, hehe, it really made His Highness laugh, the old minister suddenly remembered something, this Xiangzhou Mansion was originally the jurisdiction of the old minister, if these two boys return to office, the next people have to stutter vigorously, it is really difficult to have much experience value, moreover, the old minister is also worried about others gossiping, well, the old minister heard that Chen Zhou assassinated Shi Fang Shuxian Ding worried, and now it is a vacancy, let Qian'er give it a try, maybe it can be successful, as for Chun'er, Caizhou still lacks a Sima, Chun'er or can be any, If he can get the favor of His Royal Highness, the old minister has nothing else to ask for. ”
Xiangzhou is Li Zhen's base, and it has long been run like an iron bucket, so there is no need to send his parents and children to squat, he has made so many detours, and he wants to expand the territory, so he refuses to agree to Li Xian's proposal, so he shy and played with a lion's mouth.
"The eighth uncle will go to the fold first, as for whether it is successful or not, it must be approved by the queen mother."
Chen and Cai Erzhou are near the Eastern Capital, although they are both middle and lower states, but their strategic position should not be underestimated, Li Zhen wants such a place of the two states, and his intentions must be different, which Li Xian knew at a glance, but he didn't care much, but he didn't plan to let it go so easily, but replied vaguely.
"Thank you Your Highness for your love, the old minister is grateful, but now the huge case has not been solved, the old minister is uneasy, and I ask His Royal Highness to take the time to guide the old minister."
Although Li Xian did not make a clear statement, as long as Li Xian did not object, for Li Zhen, it was enough, as for how to deal with the martial arts, Li Zhen had his own arrangements, but he didn't care much, seeing that what should be fished was already in his hands, Li Zhenzi was no longer hypocritical, and after thanking him, he circled the topic back to the case itself.
"Eighth Uncle is serious, and he pointed out that this palace can't afford it, hmm, I heard that this case was caused by a vendetta, I don't know if that's the case?"
Speaking of the case itself, Li Xian's face immediately became solemn, his eyebrows raised, and he asked qualitatively.
"According to the on-site investigation of the old minister, there should be no doubt about it."
As soon as he heard the word "vendetta", Li Zhen's heart immediately began to mutter, I really don't know why Li Xian said this, because the Manjing teachers all knew that Li Zhen and Ming Chong were not on good terms, if it was a vendetta, wouldn't Li Xian be the biggest suspect, but Li Zhen didn't dare to answer randomly, so he could only follow Li Xian's words and deal with it vaguely.
"Well, that's right, Ming Chongyan has always been domineering, and the sixth brother who died in this palace has not suffered from his evil anger, hey, just a small official from the fourth grade, in the name of ghosts and gods, indiscriminately commenting on the princes, it is really not what his subordinates should do, although the sixth brother died for his own unrighteous reasons, and there is no one who is not aware of someone's nonsense, his person is not right, his heart can be punished, and now he is dead, and his retribution is also!"
Li Xian ignored Li Zhen's suspicions, his face sank, he slapped the copy, and scolded indignantly, hinting at it in his words.
"Oh? His Highness means ......"
As soon as he heard Li Xian's words, Li Zhen's eyes instantly lit up, his old eyes narrowed slightly, and he hurriedly asked half of the words......
