Chapter 826: Dispute

Chi Fengdian's expression was constricted, and he stepped forward quickly, followed by Qi Ning, who were all guards of the Hou Mansion, holding the horse, Qi Ning had already turned over and dismounted.

"Master Hou!" Chi Fengdian arched his hand.

Qi Ning also arched his hand and said, "Commander Chi has been waiting for a long time. ”

"Don't dare!" Chi Fengdian said respectfully: "The emperor has an edict to order the Hou Ye to preside over the seizure of the Huainan Palace, and the humble generals will obey the Hou Ye's dispatch." At present, the three hundred and seventy-four people in the palace have been controlled. ”

Qi Ning looked up and saw that the big courtyard was full of kneeling people, men and women, old and young, nodded and said, "Does the emperor have a will, how to send these people?" ”

"The state has its own laws, and the emperor's will is to deal with it in accordance with the laws of the country." Chi Fengdian lowered his voice and said: "After all, King Huainan is of royal blood, and his wife and concubine can only be sent to the nunnery to become nuns. ”

Qi Ning groaned slightly, knowing that this was also determined by the law of the country and could not be changed, so he nodded and said: "Since the emperor has the will, it will be dealt with in accordance with the law of the country." ”

"The financial utensils in the palace are for the Hou Ye to preside over the seizure." Chi Fengdian said: "Someone from the household department will come over soon, and they will assist Hou Ye to count the property in the house, make a list and submit it to the emperor, and the confiscated money and property will be included in the household bill." ”

"Haven't the people from the household department come here yet?" Qi Ning asked with a frown.

Before the words fell, the sound of horses' hooves was heard, and Chi Fengdian said: "Presumably someone from the household department has arrived." The two looked up, only to see a group of people pouring out from the other side of the long street, the first few people were riding horses, followed by forty or fifty soldiers with swords, Chi Fengdian only glanced at it, frowned, and said, "How are you from the Criminal Department?" ”

"Someone from the Criminal Department?" Qi Ning was also strange: "Commander Chi, if you don't copy the palace, the people from the Criminal Department will also participate?" ”

"This time the palace was confiscated, and the emperor did not issue an order to hand it over to the Criminal Department." Chi Fengdian said solemnly: "I have to ask what these people are doing here." ”

As he spoke, the group of people from the Criminal Department had already approached.

Qi Ning saw that the person in front of him was also dressed in an official robe, over forty years old, burly and tall, with dark skin, but he didn't know much about it, and thought that Qian Raoshun, the secretary of the Criminal Department, had been dismissed from office, but he didn't know where this person was.

"That's the squire of the Criminal Department, Da Xi Chong!" Chi Fengdian seemed to see Qi Ning's doubts, and said in a low voice: "He is the number two person in the Criminal Department, and he has always been Qian Raoshun's confidant before. ”

Qi Ning bowed slightly, thinking that Qian Raoshun was gone, and now it was natural for this Da Xi to come forward.

Da Xi Chong turned over and dismounted, and had already seen Qi Ning and Chi Fengdian, with a smile on his face, and said from afar: "Xia Guan has seen Master Hou, Commander Chi came early!" ”

Although Chi Fengdian is the commander of the Yulin Battalion, if he really wants to talk about the size of his official position, he is still one level shorter than the squire of the Criminal Department.

Chi Fengdian also arched his hand, but Qi Ning put his hands behind his back, glanced at the dozens of criminal department officials behind Da Xi Chong, frowned and asked, "Lord Da Xi, could it be that you also came to raid the house by the emperor's order?" ”

"Don't dare, don't dare." Da Xichong still smiled: "The lower officials have nothing to do with the copying family, they are just ordered to handle the case." ”

"Handle the case?" Qi Ning asked, "What case?" ”

Da Xichong raised his eyes and glanced at the gilded plaque at the door, and said with a smile: "Naturally, it is the case of King Huainan's rebellion." If the traitorous ministers are in trouble, the criminal department must give an explanation to the court, so it is natural to investigate it clearly. ”

"I see." Qi Ning bowed slightly: "How are you going to investigate the case?" ”

"Back to Master Hou, I came here today to invite the prince of Huainan to go to the Criminal Department." Da Xi said: "The criminal department has already made tea, and the lower official minister has a good chat with the prince." ”

Qi Ning sneered: "Then do you know that the emperor has a decree, and the king of Huainan is guilty, but the prince is not guilty, and this case must not involve the prince." ”

"The lower officials know, the lower officials know." Da Xichong nodded again and again: "So the lower officials came today, not to arrest the prince, but to invite each other, Master Hou must not misunderstand." ”

Longtai ordered Qi Ning to lead the team to confiscate the palace, Qi Ning naturally knew Longtai's deep meaning, it was not just as simple as copying the palace, the most important reason was to let himself keep Xiao Shaozong, the prince of Huainan.

Longtai and Xiao Shaozong have a very personal relationship, the king of Huainan set off a big case, Sima naturally wants to take advantage of this big case to completely bring down the Huainan palace, although the king of Huainan is dead, but Xiao Shaozong is still alive, cutting the grass does not eradicate the root of the troubles, the Sima family naturally knows this truth, so even if Xiao Shaozong did not participate in the turnaround, he must be in danger.

Qi Ning can understand that whether it is from the perspective of personal relations or royal blood, Longtai does not want to see Xiao Shaozong forced into a desperate situation by the Sima family, but as the king of a country, it is naturally not good to directly protect the son of the rebel, so he let himself be responsible for presiding over the confiscation of the Huainan Palace, and use this as an opportunity to keep Xiao Shaozong.

Since he understood Longtai's intentions, Qi Ning naturally wouldn't let people easily touch Xiao Shaozong, and said lightly: "It's a coincidence that Lord Daxi came today, Benhou was ordered to raid the house, and before the copying, not a single grass or tree in the palace was allowed to be moved, and the people of your criminal department naturally couldn't step into the gate of the palace for half a step." ”

Da Xichong still laughed and said: "What Hou Ye said is very true, the lower officials will never dare to delay the Hou Ye to copy the house, the lower officials will take people to wait outside the palace, and after the Hou Ye has copied it, he will bring someone in to invite the prince." ”

Qi Ning frowned and said: "The people you brought are armed with knives and guns, all of them are fierce and vicious, so rude, dare to say that it is please?" ”

Da Xi Chong sighed: "Hou Ye, the King of Huainan rebelled, he has a lot of henchmen in the government and the opposition, many of them have not been arrested, and the lower officials are worried that those remaining parties will still be obstructed, so they can only bring some people with them, if there is any offense, please forgive Hou Ye." ”

Qi Ning looked at his appearance, but his words were orderly and orderly, and said lightly: "You said that you were ordered to investigate the case, and whose order was it?" ”

"This ......!"

"You don't know whose orders?" Qi Ning said coldly: "Then what other case are you investigating!" ”

"Master Hou, it's the order of the Duke of Zhenguo." Da Xi Chong said: "The old man is in charge of the government, and when such a big case happens, the old man naturally wants to order an investigation." ”

"It turned out to be the meaning of Zhen Guogong." Qi Ning smiled faintly: "But since the emperor said that the prince is not guilty, it means that no one is allowed to touch the son of the world." The Criminal Department wants to investigate the case, but Ben Hou will not stop it, but the people in the Criminal Department want to offend the prince, but Ben Hou can't agree. ”

Da Xi was stunned for a moment, and said with a slight smile: "I'm afraid that this can't be caused by the Hou Ye." This is a big case of the imperial court, the rebellion of the King of Huainan, the son of the King of Huainan and the King of Huainan are father and son, of course, this case must be investigated from the son, if the son is not invited to the criminal department to talk, this case can not be investigated, and it is even more difficult for those henchmen of the King of Huainan to investigate. ”

"Whether it's good to investigate or not, whether you can investigate it or not, that's a matter for your criminal department, and it has nothing to do with Benhou." Qi Ning didn't give the slightest face: "Da Xichong, Ben Hou is going to do something, you take someone to leave first." ”

Da Xichong had no intention of leaving, but took a step forward and arched his hand: "Master Hou, the lower official is also acting under orders, and I also ask the Hou Ye to understand the difficulties of the lower official." The lower officials will not disturb the Hou Ye to raid the house, but will only take people to wait outside. ”

"In this way, if Ben Hou copied for three days and three nights, you would also have to wait here for three days and three nights?" Qi Ning's eyes were like knives.

Da Xi Chong's face did not change, and he nodded: "Master Hou can copy here for three days, and the lower officials can wait here for three days." ”

"Oh?" Qi Ning sneered: "It seems that Lord Daxi has made up his mind, and he really doesn't want to leave." ”

Da Xichong had already taken out the official letter from his sleeve and said: "This is an order issued by the Zhenguo Gong, if the lower officials can't do a good job, this head can't be saved, and I ask the Hou Ye to be considerate." ”

Qi Ning put his hands behind his back, stared at Da Xichong's eyes, and said word by word: "That Hou ordered you to leave now, will you disobey the order?" ”

Da Xichong hesitated for a moment, and then said in a rather firm voice: "Forgive the lower official for taking the liberty of saying it, although the Hou Ye is a hereditary marquis, the lower official does not dare to be rude to the Hou Ye, but the lower official will only act according to orders when handling official business, and will not care about the difference between the upper and lower levels." The Jinyi Qi family is my famous family, Hou Ye is very wise, of course, I don't want to be misunderstood to stop the criminal department from doing errands, if it is spread, people who don't know the truth still think that Hou Ye is shielding Huainan Palace. ”

Qi Ning didn't laugh angrily, raised his hand and gave a thumbs up: "Lord Daxi is really fair, Ben Hou is full of admiration." ”

"Don't dare." Da Xi said: "Please also ask Master Hou to do an errand, the lower officials will wait patiently here." ”

"Qi Feng!" Qi Ning suddenly screamed.

Qi Feng had been following behind Qi Ning, and when he heard Qi Ning calling, he immediately stepped forward: "Master Hou, the little one is here." ”

"I didn't hear clearly just now, what did Lord Daxi say?" Qi Ning said slowly: "I heard him seem to say that I want to protect the Huainan Palace?" ”

Da Xichong changed color slightly, and hurriedly said: "Master Hou, the lower official ......!" Before he finished speaking, he was already covered by Qi Feng's voice: "Master Hou, Lord Daxi seems to have said so, he said that Lord Hou wants to protect the Huainan Palace." Master Hou, this Lord Daxi is a member of the Criminal Department, don't you know to be cautious in your words and deeds? The marquis is loyal to the imperial court, and this time he was ordered to confiscate the palace, how did he protect the Huainan palace? Although the little one has a humble status, he is also furious when he says this, if Lord Daxi can't explain it, we are not convinced. ”

Da Xichong's face was ugly, and he said: "Master Hou, don't misunderstand, the lower official didn't say that you were protecting the Huainan Palace, the lower official meant .......!" Before he could finish speaking, he saw Qi Ning's figure flashing, and he had already stepped forward, and before Da Xichong could react, Qi Ning had already raised his legs and stood up, the speed was extremely fast, and he kicked Da Xichong's chest with one kick.

Da Xichong was completely unprepared, and Qi Ning's kick was extremely powerful, hitting the chest, Da Xichong's whole person was kicked out immediately, and then fell heavily to the ground, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and the group of officials of the criminal department behind him saw this, and rushed forward one after another, pulling out their weapons, here Qi Feng and other Houfu guards had already drawn their swords and stepped forward, and the soldiers of the Yulin Battalion under Chi Fengdian also held down the handle of the knife reflexively.
