Chapter 379: A Changing Situation (3)
"Your Majesty......" Xue Ze was so unwilling.
"Prime Minister!" Zhang Tang looked at Xue Ze, "You and I should continue to interrogate, don't mess up because of a question." ”
This was normal, but when Xue Ze heard it, it was full of mockery.
"After all the interrogations, what else is there to interrogate?" Xue Ze thought angrily, he couldn't vent his grievances, he really couldn't figure it out, why did Yi Xue'er change his hexagram temporarily, this really shouldn't be!
Could it be that Yi Xue'er was threatened by Qin Cheng's henchmen? That's impossible.
Could it be that Icher is crazy? Xue Ze felt that it was more likely to be like this.
Or, could it be that Liu Che signaled Yi Xue'er in advance and told her to keep her mouth shut? ! Thinking of this possibility, Xue Ze sighed in his heart! Looking at Liu Che's eyes again, he became complicated and frightened.
Because it's highly likely, and it's the biggest possibility at the moment! In Xue Ze's opinion, only Liu Che has the ability to make Yi Xue'er temporarily change her mind and abandon her previous agreement with herself!
Xue Ze's head suddenly became as big as a fight, his heartbeat couldn't help but speed up a lot, and even his breathing became faster: It seems that he was too underestimated by His Majesty before! I underestimate His Majesty's determination to keep Qin City!
However, Xue Ze still wondered, wasn't Liu Che worried that Qin Cheng would really collude with the Xiongnu? As an emperor, how could he not even have this suspicion? What made Liu Che so confident in Qin Cheng?
Until now, Xue Ze suddenly found that he couldn't understand the young majesty behind him - I am afraid that he had underestimated him before!
"Prime Minister!" At this time, Zhang Tang's voice sounded again, "Do you still have any problems with the prime minister and the right general?" "It's already time to make a summary and make a final judgment on Qin Cheng.
Xue Ze knew that this was his last chance to squeeze Qin Cheng down.
But at the moment, what evidence do you have?
Previously, he had already put his chips on the final accusation of Qin Cheng and Yi Zhi's conspiracy, and now he still has any evidence of guilt - even the so-called "criminal evidence" before has become insignificant after Yi Xue'er's denial.
"Nope." Xue Ze shook his head weakly, although he was unwilling, he could only say so.
"Ben is gone." Wei Qing then hit the soy sauce road.
"Hmm." Zhang Tang nodded, "Then for General Zuo's case, Ben Tingwei can make a conclusion now." ”
Everyone will wait and see.
"Your Majesty!" Zhang Tang got up and saluted Liu Che. Xue Ze and Wei Qing also stood up and saluted Liu Che, and Zhang Tang said: "In view of the lack of evidence, Imperial Lieutenant Zhang Tang Qi plays Your Majesty, General Zuo is not guilty!" However, General Zuo acted in Minyue and was disrespectful to the envoy of the King of Huainan, and the minister intended to punish General Zuo Qin Cheng for one year. Your Majesty, please! ”
"Accurate!" Liu Che said.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Zhang Tang bowed deeply, then turned around and said loudly: "Ben Tingwei now announces to you, General Zuo Qin Cheng, not guilty!" ”
"Your Majesty is wise!" The whole house worshipped.
The case of General Zuo's imprisonment, which shocked the world, came to an end.
I have to say that compared with the previous stormy and turbulent momentum, today's interrogation seems a little simple and tasteless.
But behind this interrogation, there is the entanglement of various forces, and the winner has been divided.
"General Zuo, from now on, you have regained your innocence." Liu Che said, not standing up, "From tomorrow, you can return to the barracks to be in charge." He smiled, "After resting here for so long, it's time to recuperate, right?" ”
Regarding the hint of Liu Che's last sentence, Qin Cheng naturally understood: If you have spirit, it's time to do a big job! This big effort is naturally related to the new law. So Qin Cheng saluted and said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, the minister will live up to Your Majesty's expectations!" ”
"Hmm." Liu Che nodded, and said to Zhang Tang again: "Now that General Zuo's matter is settled, what should we do next?" ”
"Next, it's time to move on to the next case." Zhang Tang replied.
"The next case?" Many people looked at each other and asked each other: What's going on? When did the trial of the court office become an assembly line operation? How many more do you have to try in a day?
And the discerning man found an abnormality: Liu Che had no intention of getting up. In other words, Liu Che will listen to the next case!
The case that can be allowed to be observed by Liu Che will naturally not be an ordinary case.
But before, there was no rumor that there was a big case to be tried today! Not only that, there has been no major incident in Chang'an recently!
Today's situation is becoming more and more incomprehensible.
Xue Ze looked at Liu Che and found that Liu Che was also looking at himself. Touching Liu Che's fierce eyes, Xue Ze suddenly had a bad premonition!
Zhang Tang has already begun to continue his official voice: "In the next case, the Imperial Lieutenant Office interrogated Xue Ze, the prime minister of the Han Dynasty, and framed and murdered Qin Cheng, the general of the Han Dynasty!" ”
......
Chang'an Xingping Hall.
Liu Ling has the habit of taking a nap, and he can't move the thunder. Probably Liu Ling also knows that a woman's good skin is raised by sleep, and sleep can also delay aging. Therefore, when Liu Ling is taking a nap, no one is generally allowed to disturb him. If someone forcibly wakes her up before she wakes up, she will become very violent like an angry lion.
Once upon a time, Liu Ling crippled a servant empty-handed for this purpose.
A weak woman cripples a big man alive, and she is not fighting for a certain vulnerable part, you can imagine the horror of the picture.
But today, after Liu Ling was woken up, he listened to the report of the personal maid, but he didn't have any temper, but was stunned for a long time.
"General Zuo Qin Cheng was acquitted?" After a long time, Liu Ling, who was a little clearer, shook his head and muttered, a little distracted.
"My painstaking solitude has created ironclad evidence, and he is all right? How is this possible! Liu Ling's just sober eyes were full of incredulity, "I didn't see any movements of Qin Cheng before the interrogation, how did he manage to change the situation during the interrogation?" ”
"It is said that Prime Minister Xue Ze invited the Xiongnu princess Yi Xue to testify for Qin Cheng and Yi Zhi's collusion, who knew that this Princess Yi Xue didn't know anything when she was present!" The maid continued to report, "As for other crimes, Qin Cheng just didn't admit it. The strange thing is that Ting Wei Zhang Tang and His Majesty did not ask too much, but they both acquiesced to Qin Cheng's statement! ”
"I see." Liu Ling suddenly said, "It seems that I still underestimated Qin Cheng after all." ”
"What do you mean by this? The servant was puzzled. The maid said.
Liu Ling smiled noncommittally, "Actually, Qin Cheng has already started to move, but none of our people have noticed it." Before the interrogation, Qin Cheng must have been in control of the situation, which made his non-admission of the charges to Liu Che and Zhang Tang's tacit approval. And the most surprising of them is the Hun princess Yixue! Being able to make a person who was turned from a princess into a captive not retaliate against himself, although I don't know how Qin Cheng did it, but I have to admit that Qin Cheng's methods are indeed clever! ”
"In fact, the most powerful thing is that he is as steady as a mountain, and he changes the wind and clouds in one move." Liu Ling sighed with emotion, "Even our eyeliner has been hidden, it's really not simple!" ”
"......," the maid asked, "what shall we do next?" ”
"Wait!" Liu Ling rubbed his eyebrows and said.
"What are you waiting for?"
"Wait for news." Liu Ling stood up, walked to the corridor, and looked out of the building, "I think that since Qin Cheng can turn over in one fell swoop, he will not have a good life for Xue Ze, who has put him in a deep predicament, and now, maybe he has already laid out the situation." ”
The maid said in disbelief: "Qin Cheng is so powerful? ”
Liu Ling sighed, "I just underestimated him before, so I made a joke." In the future, you can't underestimate him anymore. ”
"Lord Weng is wise." The maid said sincerely, "But no matter how Qin Cheng tosses, as long as it doesn't threaten us, he will go with him." ”
"How can there be no threat?" A hint of solemnity climbed up Liu Ling's face, "Don't forget that we are also one of the initiators who put him in prison, and in this matter, we also made a great effort." Qin Cheng is not a good man and a woman, and it is impossible for him to let things that threaten him continue to exist. If he does something to Xue Ze this time, there is no reason to hang us aside! ”
"Huh?" The maid was surprised, "So how do we deal with it?" ”
"The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, I want to see what means Qin Cheng can use to make me unable to deal with it." Liu Ling's eyes suddenly had a little more strong fighting spirit.
At about that time, another servant ran over and said to Liu Ling: "Report to the master, the latest news, the Imperial Lieutenant Office interrogated Prime Minister Xue Ze to frame and murder the Zuo General Qin Cheng!" Now the case is now on trial! ”
"So fast?" Liu Ling's delicate body trembled slightly.
......
"Your Majesty, the minister is wronged!" After Xue Ze listened to Zhang Tang's cold words, he was shocked and hurriedly bowed to Liu Che, "The minister has never framed or murdered General Zuo, I really don't know where Captain Ting's words began." Even if Fang Caichen said that General Zuo colluded with the Huns, it was because he received some letter and token evidence, which is also undoubted! As for the murder of General Zuo, there is no way to talk about it, please make your majesty the minister's master! ”
"I have said before that I am here today to come and see, and I will not participate in the trial of the case." Liu Che's face didn't see the slightest abnormality, and even his voice didn't fluctuate at all, "Regarding the case, how the Imperial Governor's Office should try it, how it should be tried, I don't ask." ”
"Your Majesty......" Xue Ze looked at Liu Che blankly, his heart was dead, Liu Che's cold attitude made him extremely uneasy, this was obviously a refusal to speak for him!
Just when Xue Ze was a little distracted, Qin Cheng walked up, smiled at Xue Ze, and then said to Liu Che: "Your Majesty, the ministers are sparse: Prime Minister Xue Ze secretly communicated with the Huns, and together with the lord of Huainan Mausoleum Weng and others, he disturbed the government and harmed the country!" ”
