Chapter 406: Unspoken Rules of the Cell (Ask for Subscription!) )
"The queen doesn't have to!"
It's rare to have a warm relationship with the queen today, is it possible that you still have to deal with the queen behind your back?
She's the queen of a country! Naturally, he could share all the news with himself, so Emperor Tang said to Wu De with some dissatisfaction: "Wu De, if there is anything, just say it directly, don't you want the queen to know?" ”
I really don't want her to know......
Wu De sighed in his heart, since Emperor Tang asked him to speak, then he could only say: "Your Majesty, the old slave just returned to the palace from the city, and only then did he learn about His Royal Highness King Xiang...... Killed...... That's why Uncle Zhang sent Princess Yilan back as soon as possible, for fear that it would be unsafe outside the palace......"
King Xiang was assassinated?
The Tang Emperor and the Empress who heard the news seemed to be stunned, and they felt particularly incredible.
Emperor Tang was still slightly better, the queen's face was already pale, if she hadn't held Emperor Tang's arm, she was afraid that she would have fallen to the ground.
"Yixiang now...... What's going on? ”
Emperor Tang seemed to have exhausted all his strength to ask this question, and the empress also moved her eyes to Wu De, hoping to hear some good news from him, but looking at Wu De's performance, it always felt like it was unlikely......
He clenched the queen's hands, afraid that he would hear some bad news, if the queen couldn't bear it, he could still take care of it, it turned out that he thought too much......
"Your Majesty...... His Royal Highness King Xiang ...... on the spot Gone......"
"Yixiang!"
As soon as Wu De finished saying this, the queen let out a wail, and then her eyes sank, and she fainted directly, and Emperor Tang's performance was not much worse, and he wanted to help the queen, but as soon as he took a step, he lost consciousness and also fell......
…………
It snowed all night, and the next morning, Jingzhou was covered in snow again.
Before the hour came, all the civil and military officials had gathered outside the palace gate, and this time, no one spoke, and the atmosphere was quiet and strange.
Even the guards guarding the palace gate felt inexplicably depressed, and stood there looking straight ahead, their waists straighter......
As soon as the hour arrived, the palace gate opened.
There was no scramble, the hundred officials walked to the palace in an orderly manner, the snow on the palace floor has been cleaned, and there is no trace of snow anymore, but the roof of the palace is snow-white, solemn and desolate.
A quarter of an hour had passed, and Emperor Tang had not yet arrived.
None of the officials spoke, waiting quietly, this kind of thing happened, and it is understandable that Emperor Tang came late.
After another quarter of an hour, Emperor Tang still did not come.
At this time, Wu De walked into the Jinluan Hall and said to the officials: "Your Highness is sick today, and it is inconvenient to go to court early. Ladies and gentlemen, do you have something to do? ”
It's strange that no one stood up today, not even those imperial histories who were happy to be admonished on weekdays.
Who dares to play at this time?
Unless the head is kicked by a donkey!
"Since you have nothing to do, then you will be here this morning, please come back!"
After saying this, the officials got up and retreated one after another.
At this time, the faces of the officials were not very good, after all, the prince of a country was assassinated, what a bad thing!
It has nothing to do with factions, nothing to do with standing in line, it's just a pity for King Xiang, which shows that King Xiang's popularity is still good......
However, the most anxious and worried among these officials was Hao Junguang, and when he came out of the palace, he rushed to the East Palace non-stop.
…………
The prince got up early today, dressed neatly, sat in the front hall and waited quietly, waiting for someone from the palace to pass him into the palace!
Yes, King Xiang was killed, and he must be the most suspicious!
At the beginning of the early dynasty, Emperor Tang should have called him for an interrogation!
But the prince is not afraid, he is ready, the road ahead is smooth, what about the occasional thorns on the path?
But he waited left and right, but no one came to pass him into the palace, so he panicked: What does Your Majesty mean by this?
If he was called into the palace and scolded him, he would be very happy, after all, being able to scold him shows that he still has great expectations for him, but now he is left to dry like this—it's too scary!
Could it be that Emperor Tang has already searched for any clues?
Shouldn't it be? How much effort is this?
So what's going on now?
When the prince was speculating wildly, the subordinate came in and reported: "Your Highness, Hao Shangshu asks to see!" ”
"Hao Junguang? What did he come to do? ”
The crown prince wondered, at this point, shouldn't Hao Junguang be in the palace early? How did it end up here?
This was the first person to visit him since yesterday's accident, and the prince said, "Hurry up, please!" ”
After a while, Hao Junguang walked in, and after seeing the prince, he knelt down directly on the ground excitedly and said, "Your Highness, you have to save my poor nephew!" ”
Well?
Nephew?
What's going on?
At this moment, the crown prince had a question mark on his face, and said, "Hao Shangshu, please hurry up—I don't know what you just said?" ”
So Hao Junguang got up from the ground and said with a sad face: "My nephew Hao Shirong, yesterday I took a group of friends to go to the Shangyuan Poetry Club to play, but I was only halfway there, and I ran into the fast hunting of the killer, and I took the person directly!" ”
Speaking of which, Hao Junguang was so angry, on the night of the Shangyuan Festival, he drank a little wine, thinking that he had been fighting with Hao Shirong and his mother for a long time, presumably she was also empty, right?
Hao Junguang, who couldn't bear the loneliness, planned to take advantage of the strength of the wine to make out with Hao Shirong and his mother, but as soon as he entered the courtyard next door, he heard her panic and said that Hao Shirong was gone, and he didn't take it seriously, saying that Hao Shirong was not a child, and he would go out when he was injured, and the monkey hurriedly pulled her and wanted to go to the house......
At this time, the little guy who ran out with Hao Shirong ran back and told the news that Hao Shirong was arrested by the people of the government as a killer......
The government caught the wrong person, which was not a big deal in Hao Junguang's eyes, but when he heard that the people in the government were chasing the killer who assassinated King Xiang, the wine woke up directly!
This is not a trivial matter!
He rushed to the prefect overnight, planning to find the newly appointed prefect Li Haoyun to intercede, saying that it was his nephew, thinking that he should give face, right?
But who knew that Li Haoyun didn't even see his face, and only asked people to bring a sentence, saying that this matter is very important, who is right and wrong, he has his own clear judgment, just let Hao Junguang wait for news at home.
When he got home, Hao Jun smashed a few teapots angrily!
After Luo Zhiyuan was demoted to another country, regarding the candidate for the prefect of Jingzhou, he first recommended a friend of his, who was picky about Li Haoyun who was transferred from other places, but in the end, it was Emperor Tang who made the decision, and he was helpless......
This Li Haoyun must be taking revenge on himself for that incident!
After the early court today, he hurried to the East Palace, because of this kind of thing, if the prince came forward, then Li Haoyun would definitely sell the prince a face!
The prince listened to Hao Junguang's words, pondered for a while, and did not continue to talk about this matter, but asked, "Has Hao Shangshu ever been to the early dynasty today?" ”
"Back to Your Highness, the lower officials came from the early court!"
Hao Junguang didn't know what the prince meant, so he could only answer truthfully.
"Oh? On the early dynasty? So why is it so early today? ”
The prince is really curious, if this kind of thing happens, shouldn't the court be particularly lively and last for a long time, and it will end so soon, it's rare......
"Back to Your Highness, Your Majesty is ill today and did not participate in the early dynasty, so the early dynasty retreated before it opened......"
This......
Hearing this, the prince calculated in his heart, His Majesty is sick with this kind of thing, it is true and true, and it is false to say false, this is impossible to guess, but it is certain that Emperor Tang must be very sad and sad, and the next few days will be the time to see the truth.
Thinking of this, the prince's heart was still a little uneasy......
"Your Highness, my nephew's affairs ......"
Hao Junguang saw that the prince did not express his position, and reminded again with some concern in his heart.
"Hao Shangshu, this kind of thing, there is no evidence, and this king can't be the master!"
The prince put his hands behind his back and sighed before saying.
Can't be the master?
Hao Junguang's heart sank, and he said a little unwillingly: "Your Highness, my nephew doesn't know martial arts, and he has nothing to do with that killer at all, and I hope His Highness can help the lower official talk to Li Haoyun......
"Hao Shangshu, you're wrong! Hao Shirong is just your nephew, how can you know what he does every day? Although Luo Xingjian is Luo Zhiyuan's son, Luo Zhiyuan doesn't know anything about what Luo Xingjian does, how dare you be sure that you are an uncle? ”
Seeing that Hao Junguang didn't speak with a straight face, the prince smiled again and said: "Hao Shangshu, if it is really as you said, Hao Shirong was wronged, then the court will definitely return his innocence!" You still don't have to worry......"
"Yes, Your Highness......"
Hao Junguang's words had lost his previous enthusiasm, and he said a few words coldly, and then left.
Looking at Hao Junguang's back, a sneer appeared on the prince's face, he knew that from today onwards, he would have one less ally.
But he didn't care.
King Xiang was killed, Emperor Tang was bound to be furious, and he would not give up until the murderer was found, then this Jingzhou City was afraid that it would be turned upside down!
Although the prince was sure that even if they investigated, they would not be able to find out the reason, but who would dare to guarantee this kind of thing?
There are some things that everyone knows, and only one explanation is needed at this time, and the appearance of Hao Shirong gave the prince great inspiration!
On the night of King Xiang's accident, Hao Shirong and a group of people appeared at the scene of the incident with a murder weapon, and if he was the murderer - or one of the murderer's accomplices, this idea could not be better!
That's why the prince didn't open his mouth and agreed to help Hao Junguang, after all, it is rare to come out with a scapegoat volunteer at such a critical time!
…………
Jingzhou Prefect Prison.
The innermost room of the cell, that is, the one where Zhang Twelve and Du Lang lived at the beginning, because two people died in it, Zhang Twelve and Du Lang were pardoned and there was a large empty space.
Hao Shirong was "lucky" and was assigned to this cell.
And with him is also Leper Liu.
Last night, Hao Shirong finally sneaked out of the house, and when he went to "smell the fragrance", he saw the enemy Zhang Twelve, and wanted to find some place to come back, but who knew that he was beaten by Zhang Twelve, not to mention how embarrassing!
Running out of "smelling the fragrance", Hao Shirong didn't go home, because he knew that Hao Junguang wouldn't help him come forward for this kind of thing, and took a sip, he thought of the leper Liu he knew before he left Jingzhou, and heard that he is now the boss of Xicheng, so he must be able to help himself!
When they met again, both of them were very happy, especially Leper Liu.
Because the appearance of Hao Shirong, the unjust boss, means that he will have money to take soon!
Sure enough, Hao Shirong asked Leper Liu to help beat someone, and promised to pay a lot of money afterwards, and Leper Liu agreed on the spot.
Hao Shirong was very angry at the time, saying that he would break Zhang Twelve's body into ten thousand pieces, in line with the customer-oriented service attitude, Leper Liu came out with his brother with a knife, and gave him a knife in order to give Hao Shirong courage......
A brain-dead and a group of deflated three heroes came to "smell the fragrance" in high spirits, and before they even entered the door, they were taken down by the oncoming and well-equipped catchers......
Hao Shirong was a little stunned at the time, Leper Liu was even more confused than Hao Shirong, and he even wondered if this was a trick that Hao Shirong made for himself!
He hangs in Jingzhou City every day, if he doesn't have an accident in the morning or in the evening, Hao Shirong just looked for him, and he had an accident, it's no wonder he thinks too much!
But looking at Hao Shirong's nervous expression, he didn't seem to know, so he was a little relieved, after all, he knew that this guy's uncle was a secretary of the ministry, and the prefect didn't have to be afraid of catching him quickly, right?
Hao Shirong also thought so, so when he was arrested, he signed up for his own number, but it was useless, and he dared to assassinate King Xiang, no matter who your father was, it would be in vain!
Assassinate King Xiang?
Labor and management just come out to beat individuals, the key is not to beat up, assassinate a big-headed ghost!
Hao Shirong was sad and angry, but he had no choice but to wait for Hao Junguang to save him......
As soon as a newcomer enters the cell, he will inevitably suffer from a series of unspoken rules.
Of course, this unspoken rule is not the unspoken rule of the other, after all, they are all big men, and there is really nothing to "hide"......
Sleeping under the kang, eating at the end of the meal, eating the least, and helping the new boss in the cell pinch his shoulders and beat his legs, it was really humiliating.
Hao Shirong was not very bold, especially when he saw these fierce prisoners in the cell, he thought that he would get out soon-pinch it......
But Leper Liu is not so good-tempered, he is also the underground big brother of Jingzhou Xicheng, how can he stand this kind of anger?
But he was weak, and his only ally, Hao Shirong, had already succumbed, so as soon as he resisted, he was beaten by the people in the cell, and he lay on the ground for a long time......
After the man finished beating him, he said, "When you come to us, you have to listen to our rules!" Last time, a big brother came, and he was much more ruthless than you, hehe, but then—"
"And then?"
The leper Liu, who was lying on the ground, asked.
"Later, ah......"
Speaking of this, the man looked out of the window gloomily, thinking about Zhang Twelve's voice and smile at that time, and regretted for a while: "Later, he was gone......
“…………”
Leper Liu was lying on the ground, unconscious......
