Chapter 680: Confused Case (1)
"Niang Niang Mingjian, Lao Chen, Lao Chen......"
Li Zhen obviously didn't expect that Empress Wu would also attack herself, so she was anxious, and she was about to resign, but in a hurry, she couldn't find a good excuse, and her old face was as red as blood, if you want to say how embarrassed, how embarrassed you are.
"I think it's okay, this matter will be presided over by the starling brother The overall situation, all the divisions and yamen will fully cooperate, and the case must be concluded within a month, and I will destroy the nine clans of the lawbreakers, and I will not be spared!"
It is rare that when Empress Wu and Li Xian have the same views on the court situation, Gaozong is also happy to fulfill the last time, and without waiting for Li Zhen to hold back his words, he made a decision, and without hesitation, he put the hot potato into Li Zhen's arms.
"The old minister is grateful, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
Gaozong's words have already been said to this point, and if he wants to resign, he will be guilty of bullying the king, Li Zhen has no choice but to accept it, not to mention how crooked it is in his heart.
"Well, with the starling here, I can rest assured."
Gaozong was weak, and he didn't sleep well, and at this time, he was already tired, seeing that the matter had been decided, he didn't want to talk any more, and dropped a sentence of explanation, so he got up, yawned without much image, and slowly turned to the apse.
"Scatter!"
As soon as Gaozong and his wife left, Cheng Denggao didn't dare to slack off, shouted at the top of his throat, and led a group of small eunuchs to chase after Gaozong and his wife......
"Father, the prince's guy is really too much, it's obviously his, but when he turns around, he asks me to wait to go to the top tank, how can there be such a good thing in the world, if you want to investigate, then check his mother's bottom, and see that guy is still very proud!"
Today was originally Xun Holiday, this court was dispersed, all kinds of people and others returned to their respective governments, and the Yue Wangfu and his party were no exception, and they took several carriages and roared back to the palace in the city, as soon as Bu entered the door of the study, Li Chong, who was already full of resentment, took the lead and couldn't hold his breath, and he didn't even sit down, so he scolded urgently.
"Big brother, if you don't do it, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince shouldn't be that kind of person."
Although Li Wen is now a general in the Hui Dynasty, after all, he has been in Hexi for many years, and he has a blind worship complex for Li Xianzhineng.
"Fart, you kid was stunned by that guy, you can't see such a simple truth, useless thing!"
Hearing this, the third brother, who had always thought that he was the first to look at himself, refuted himself in public, and Li Chongden became angry when he was on the board, and he violently spoke without any image.
"Enough!"
Li Zhenzheng was extremely upset, this time the two brothers pinched themselves, and when they got angry, they scolded angrily, and then they didn't care what the expressions of the brothers were, buried their heads, walked quickly to the back of the first few sons, lifted the hem of the royal suit, and sat down sullenly.
Although Li Qian and Li Chun are also serving in the court now, but their official ranks are low, one is under the sixth grade, and the other is from the sixth grade, which is not enough to be qualified to go to the court, and they are even more qualified to participate in this court meeting where officials with more than four grades can attend.
"Lord Wang, what's wrong, why is it like this?"
Seeing that the situation was wrong, not only Li Qian and Li Chun were curious, but Chen Wushuang was also quite stunned, but he was undecided, and he didn't plan to ask questions in a hurry, but seeing that Li Qian and the brothers were so eager, it was not easy to brush the brothers' intentions, so he reached out and stroked the long beard on his chest, and asked in a deep voice.
"Hmm."
Li Zhenzheng was depressed and couldn't understand it, so he really didn't want to say much, so he waved his hand at Pei Shoude and motioned for him to state the details of today's court meeting.
"No, Brother Wushuang, here's the thing, today's court discussion is only for one thing, and that is the issue of who will preside over the trial of Ming Chongyan's assassination......"
Li Zhen had an order, Pei Shoude didn't dare to slack off, he hurriedly bowed down, answered the promise, and then coughed lightly twice, cleared his throat, and described in detail what happened in the morning today, only talking about the facts, and not adding any personal comments.
"Is there such a thing? Hmmm......"
Although Chen Wushuang was a first-class figure of the world's wise men, he really didn't expect such a change in the court, and he was really a little confused for a while, so he refused to comment easily, just frowned slightly, and fell into contemplation.
Even Chen Wushuang was speechless, and the rest of the people didn't dare to speak indiscriminately, even Pei Shoude, who had never been very convinced of Chen Wushuang, the atmosphere in the study suddenly became weird, and a suffocating heaviness overwhelmed everyone in Yue Wangfu.
"Hey, it's really calculating, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the one in the palace are not fuel-efficient lamps!"
Chen Wushuang is not an ordinary person in the end, after pondering for a while, he has already figured out the meaning inside, and he can't help but sigh with emotion.
"Oh? Where do you start, sir? ”
Li Zhen couldn't figure out what Li Xian and Empress Wu's intentions were, nor could she figure out how to try the case that was forced into her own hands.
"The prince is not in a hurry, and let Chen say carefully, well, according to a certain view, even if the death of Ming Chongyan was not done by the prince himself, it must have been arranged by him, this should be a sure thing, but others really want to find out the prince's head, I'm afraid that there is no possibility, let alone the prince, that is, the queen of heaven does not have the ability to shoot in person, and she must be tough, unless His Majesty plans to change horses, otherwise, the prince can't do it, the reason why Niangniang forced His Royal Highness the prince to judge the case by himself, It's just that I plan to catch His Royal Highness the Prince's pigtails with this, but unfortunately, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is treacherous and not fooled, and the mother is also helpless, so she can only take advantage of the situation to push the case to the prince, nothing more than hoping that the prince can fight in the ring with His Royal Highness the Prince, as for why His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is like this, I'm afraid that he is taking revenge on the previous Wuzhou impeachment case, hehe, this retribution is coming so quickly. ”
Chen Wushuang shook his head, stretched out a slap, and while wrenching his fingers, he carefully analyzed the reason, and his words were full of confidence.
"Ah, this ......"
Li Zhen was full of hope that Chen Wushuang could say a way to crack the case, but when he heard Chen Wushuang's analysis, he didn't say how to solve the case, but instead listed a lot of troublesome things, as if the case could not be solved, he was a little dumbfounded, his old face twitched, and he didn't know what to say.
"Mr. Chen, things shouldn't be like this, we have the right to try the case in hand, we should take the initiative, whether it is the one in the palace or the East Palace, if we want to succeed, we must look at our faces, why is it so unbearable as Mr. said?"
Li Chong is anxious, and he doesn't have much wisdom and calculation, so he really can't understand the mystery of what Chen Wushuang said.
"King Langya only knows one of them, but I don't know the other, it is true that the right to try the case is in hand, and we seem to have a certain initiative, but in the face of the heavy pressure of the East Palace and the Queen of Heaven, where will we go? Following the intention of the queen of heaven, deeply offended the East Palace, not to mention, it is destined to be unable to implicate the prince, there is no other, since the prince dares to act, he has long been prepared accordingly, whether it is to use the excuse of the banquet to cover for alcoholism, or to stab the thunder, there is no full evidence to prove what the prince did, if not, how can the mother give up the right to try the case, try to ask the king of Langya what means to investigate the prince, planting? In his opinion, once I wait for this to do this, even if we can't take advantage of this case to bring down the prince in one fell swoop, we can also force us to completely devote ourselves to his command, and his instinct to turn his hands into clouds and hands to rain will be good. ”
Chen Wushuang actually didn't like Li Chong's impulsive and brainless temperament, but this son was the son of King Yue, and his righteous reputation was, even if he didn't like it, as a minister, Chen Wushuang had to enlighten him according to his temperament.
"What Mr. said is very true, if we don't act according to the will of the mother, then we have to fake to get through, if this is the case, the mother will definitely exert force, we can not please inside and outside, if we join forces with the East Palace, it is inevitable that there is a suspicion of seeking skin with the tiger, that guy is also not very good to get along, put the handle in his hands, and throw it out to Jing'er, it is a major crime of bullying the king, in other words, we are now difficult to ride a tiger!"
Li Qian's IQ is obviously higher than that of Li Chong's boss, and she has the intention to embarrass him, so she interjected from the side, one shows her resourcefulness, and the other is that she secretly derogates Li Chong, accusing him of being a confused worm who doesn't know anything.
"Hmph, ridiculous, we have a holy purpose, how can I be afraid that the East Palace will dare to play a scoundrel, and I will investigate it thoroughly, under Miki, I don't believe that all the people in the East Palace are monolithic!"
Although Li Chong is not very smart, he is not stupid to get home, and since he noticed his second brother's bad intentions, he became angry, his eyes widened a few times, and he was ashamed to release the bold words of investigating the East Palace thoroughly.
"Yes, yes, the eldest brother is so bold, and I don't know how many soldiers the eldest brother wants to bring to check the East Palace, and dare to take people in front of His Royal Highness the Prince, if you really dare, the younger brother should lose his head and brother!"
Li Qian was determined to make Li Chong ugly, and seeing that he was annoyed and angry, she was happy to give him another heavy blow.
"You ......"
Don't look at what Li Chong said before, but if he wants him to deal with Li Xian face to face, he doesn't have the guts, such cowardice in his heart is exposed by Li Qian in public like this, and he can't hold his face anymore, and he is about to scold.
"Enough! If you quarrel too much, shut up alone! ”
Seeing that the two sons had a dispute again, Li Zhen was so annoyed that she had a good face, and unceremoniously shouted and scolded her throat, stopping Li Chong's swear words, and then she didn't care what the expression of the second son was, she looked at Chen Wushuang, who was silent and speechless, with a look of anticipation, and asked earnestly: "Since Mr. can see through the strangeness, I think there must be someone who teaches me, and I ask Mr. to give me advice, and I have no reason to follow alone." ”
