Chapter 215: Knocking Hou Junji
Seeing Hou Junguang's fearless expression, Li Ke's face couldn't help but show a sneer. Then he opened his mouth and said to Li Shimin: "Father, please let Hou Junguang's concubine go to the palace." ”
Li Shimin nodded, and Wang De shouted loudly: "Concubine Xuanhou Junguang went to the palace to reply." ”
Hou Junguang didn't expect that Li Ke would bring his concubine over. However, Hou Junguang didn't know which concubine Li Ke brought. After all, his wife and concubine are like clouds.
Not long after, a pot-bellied woman went up to the Tai Chi Palace. It was Hou Junguang's pregnant concubine, which couldn't help but surprise Hou Junguang.
After the concubine went to the palace, she saluted Li Shimin. Then he knelt on the ground in a proper manner, waiting for Li Ke's questioning.
Li Ke took two steps forward and asked, "How did you become Hou Junguang's concubine?" What does that warlock who was invited by Hou Junguang have anything to do with you? ”
Hearing Li Ke ask, the concubine looked at Hou Junguang with resentful eyes. Then he replied: "That warlock is my senior brother, and it was also my senior brother who arranged for me to marry Hou Junguang. ”
This time, Hou Junguang couldn't really be calm, he wouldn't have thought of it anyway. His beloved concubine turned out to be the sister-in-law of the warlock.
But this is just the beginning, Li Ke continued to ask, "Then I don't know where your senior brother is now?" ”
"My senior brother has been killed by this Hou Junguang. And he was cruelly crushed and fed to the dogs he raised. Hou Junguang's concubine gritted her teeth and said.
"You can't talk nonsense, you said that Hou Junguang killed your senior brother and fed the dog with his corpse. I wonder if you have any proof? Li Ke continued to ask the concubine.
"Evidence? I'm just a concubine who can be manipulated by others, how can I have any evidence. But the fetus in my womb is the best evidence, because it belongs to me and my brother. The concubine sneered and said.
"What do you say, the child in your womb is a wild seed with that warlock. I'm going to kill you slut today. Hou Junguang said in a broken voice, and rushed directly towards the concubine.
How could Li Ke let him hurt that little concubine? Raising his leg was a kick, directly kicking Hou Junguang to the ground.
And said in a cold voice: "This is the Taiji Palace, not the Hou Mansion where you show off your might." If you dare to come nonsense again, believe it or not, let the forbidden army hit the golden gourd to the top now. ”
"Hehehe, I originally thought that I, Hou Junguang, would do whatever it took to achieve the goal. I didn't expect it to be a small thing compared to their dog man and woman. Hou Junguang, who was sitting on the ground, said with a self-deprecating face.
At this time, Hou Junguang was already disheartened, and being alive was nothing more than a shame for him. Because he simply couldn't take the blow.
So Hou Junguang was very cooperative and took all the things on himself. admits that the 40 or so women were killed by himself, and has nothing to do with Hou Wei.
"Father, now Hou Junguang's case has been heard clearly. Please ask your father to decree that Hou Junguang will be convicted of death, and escort him back to Luoyang City to be beheaded for public display. Li Ke opened his mouth and said to Li Shimin.
"In this matter, according to the emperor's opinion, he ordered Hou Junguang to be escorted back to Luoyang City and executed in front of the people." Li Shimin opened his mouth and said.
"Father, this Hou Junguang's concubine, although he was not directly involved in this matter. But it was also inseparable from this case, and Erchen felt that he should be exiled. ”
As for Hou Wei, he is Hou Junjiguang's accomplice. and bullied men and women in Luoyang City, making the people hate them to the core. ”
"Now she is even more frustrated and ready to get involved with the daughter of the Duke of Weiguo, the future princess of the son. Please ask your father to put him and his father in the same crime and bring him back to Luoyang City for execution. Li Ke spoke again.
"Well, that's it. Cheng Biting Jin, this matter will be handed over to you. Li Shimin nodded and said to Cheng Yanjin.
Now Hou Junji's hanging heart has finally been put down, because now Hou Junguang's case has been closed. But from beginning to end, he had nothing to do with himself.
But what Hou Junguang didn't expect was that at this time, Hou Wei suddenly knelt down and crawled in front of him. He said with a pleading face: "Uncle save me, uncle save me." ”
"You father and son have done such an inhumane thing, how can you let me save you. Go ahead with confidence, I'll take care of the aftermath for you. Hou Junji said with a sigh.
"Uncle, those nurses in your house, but nephew, I carefully selected them for you. Now that my nephew is in trouble, uncle, you can't see death without saving it. ”
"You are Chen Guogong of Datang, and you have made great contributions to Datang. As long as you are willing to plead with the emperor, the emperor will definitely leave me dead. Hou Wei said with tears in his eyes.
This time, Hou Junji was not calm, he raised his leg and kicked Hou Wei in front of him directly to the ground.
And said sharply: "Hugh is there to be a woman, do you still want to bite me back when you die?" ”
"Hehehe, the brothers of the Hou family are really the same, only yourself has no family affection in your hearts. Since you are unkind, then don't blame me for being unjust. Hou Wei said with a sneer.
Then he said to Li Shimin: "Your Majesty, the grass people report to the emperor." The Marquis of Chen Guojun is dignified. Back then, with my father Hou Junguang, I did a lot of things to kill good and take risks. ”
After the world was peaceful, he coveted pleasure and lived for the grass people to find a nurse for him. I don't know how many children will be separated from their mothers in life and death......"
Hearing that Hou Wei was enumerating his crimes, Hou Junji couldn't bear it anymore. stepped forward and prepared to kick Hou Wei to death.
But just as he was taking a step forward, he was stopped halfway by Cheng Yanjin. And said to Hou Junji with a smile: "I said brother, we are not afraid of shadows, why should we care about this mad dog biting people when he is dying?" ”
Hou Jun glared at Cheng Jin a few times, but in the end, he could only retreat helplessly. In his heart, he couldn't help but secretly scold Cheng Biting Jin for being a-stirring stick.
"Father, the son thinks that this Hou Wei is opening his mouth, and Chen Guogong has made great contributions to the Tang Dynasty. How can it be as unbearable as Hou Wei said. He also asked his father to strictly investigate the matter and return Chen Guogong's innocence. Li Chengqian opened his mouth and said to Li Shimin.
Before Li Shimin could say anything, Li Ke spoke again: "Father, there is still a felony who has not been interrogated. He was the killer who tried to intercept Hou Junguang's father and son halfway. Jianghu people call Zhang Tao impermanent. ”
"Then bring Zhang Tao up and try the case clearly. As for Hou Junji's matter, a decision will be made later. Li Shimin opened his mouth and said to Li Ke.
Hearing that Li Ke was going to take Zhang Tao to the Taiji Palace, Hou Junji was not the slightest surprised. After all, Hou Junguang's father and son are not dead, and Zhang Tao will not have anything to do.
