Zhao Liantang said that he didn't know what to do, but he just vented, and after the fire in his heart was almost gone, he said angrily: "Go, go and report to Your Highness." ”

Tang Ning stayed in the house and didn't come out, because the heated discussion outside still didn't stop. Besides, he has nothing to do when he leaves the house, and the Nanshan camp is still in Jizhou, so it is impossible for him to run to Jizhou.

Tang Ning had nothing to do, Rong Xuan and the others were happy, and even Xiaoxiao and Lin Lan came to join in the fun from time to time.

Spring is blooming, it is a good time to go to the spring, Xiaoxiao and Lin Lan are discussing to go to the spring.

How can you go on a trip to the spring without Downing? After all, you will be hungry when you go out to play, and it is more compatible with spring outing and barbecue.

If it's fishing and barbecue, it's even better, Lin Lan and they are chattering, Tang Ning said helplessly on the side: "If I go out, it's not to enjoy the spring, but to be rewarded by others!" ”

Lin Lan said: "Then what's the matter? You're not ugly, you go out a few more times, and wait for everyone's rarity to pass! ”

Tang Ning's face was black, and his feelings were ruthlessly ignored by Lin Lan.

"Your Highness, there is news from the outer courtyard, Lord Nanzhen Zhao asks to see you!"

Tang Ning got up and went, Lin Lan pouted and said, "It's okay to say that you've been idle all day, but in fact, you're not quite busy?" ”

Rong Xuan said with a smile: "These days, Lord Zhao often comes to the door. ”

Lin Lan gossiped: "Zhao Liantang is from Jinyiwei, why does he come to the mansion all the time?" Downing wouldn't have any secrets, would he? ”

Rong Xuan couldn't help but laugh and said, "What secrets can there be?" ”

In the living room, Tang Ning invited Zhao Liantang to sit down, Zhao Liantang sat down, and said with a look of shame: "My lord! ”

Tang Ning smiled: "What's wrong? What happened? ”

Zhao Liantang said ashamedly: "My lord, the person in charge is dead!" ”

Tang Ning was stunned: "Dead? ”

Zhao Liantang nodded and said: "It's dead, the lower official handed over the steward to the Department of Internal Guard, and Gonggong Zheng said that he would review it, and if it is true, he will report it to the emperor truthfully, and the emperor will decide whether to continue the investigation." ”

"Gonggong Zheng handed over the review to Ma Chuan, and before leaving, the lower official also instructed Ma Chuan, this is very important, take it easy during the interrogation, don't kill people."

Ma Chuan patted his chest and agreed, who knew that it would be less than a day's work, and the steward would die! It's all the officials who are ineffective, please punish Your Highness! ”

Tang Ning waved his hand and said: "Died in the hands of the Internal Guard, what does this have to do with you, you don't have to blame yourself!" ”

Zhao Liantang said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, the steward is dead, it is estimated that the Internal Health Department will not investigate, so should the subordinate officials investigate?" ”

Tang Ning groaned slightly: "When interrogating and torture, people are killed, is this kind of thing common?" ”

Zhao Liantang shook his head in a daze and said: "It's not very common, torture is a craft, there are ways to pay attention to it, and this kind of thing rarely happens in our Jinyiwei." ”

"If there is a big case, the case has not been completed, and the person is killed by torture, who can bear the emperor's blame?"

Tang Ning continued to ask, "How is the craftsmanship of the torturers in the Internal Guard Division compared to the Jinyi Guard?" ”

Zhao Liantang said: "They are all in the same vein, on par. ”

Tang Ning frowned slightly and said, "Then why did that steward die in the Internal Guard Division?" ”

Zhao Liantang said in a low voice: "My lord, it won't be rumored that this person is killing people, right?" Will he be bought? ”

Tang Ning shook his head and said: "It's hard to jump to conclusions, since we can all know the strangeness of this, how can Gonggong Zheng not know?" ”

"You inquire and ask, if Ma Chuan was questioned and punished by Gonggong Zheng, it means that there is indeed something strange about this matter."

"If Gonggong Zheng didn't ask and punish Ma Chuan, it means that this is actually Gonggong Zheng's instructions, then, you don't have to investigate further!"

Zhao Liantang suddenly became enlightened, and Gonggong Zheng said that he would truthfully report to the emperor, and whether he would continue to investigate depends on the emperor's intentions.

If Ma Chuan was not punished by Zheng Gonggong, it means that this is Zheng Gonggong's instruction and the emperor's will.

Then he naturally can't check it anymore, otherwise wouldn't it be asking for trouble?

Zhao Liantang left, and Tang Ning walked towards the backyard while pondering, he also felt that this was probably Zheng Yi's instructions.

In other words, the prince doesn't want to investigate, why is this? Even if the emperor takes into account the relationship between father and son, doesn't the emperor want to find out?

Or, did the emperor already notice it?

The emperor's left hand brocade guard and right hand internal guard division, even the temple colluded with King Zuo Xian, and it was not impossible to detect the collusion between the second prince and the temple.

It's just a little strange, if the emperor really noticed the collusion between the second prince and the temple, why didn't he hide it?

"Tangning, do you have any secrets?" Seeing Tang Ning walk in, Lin Lan looked at him suspiciously.

Who doesn't have a secret? Tang Ning was speechless and said: "I have a lot of secrets, which secret are you referring to?" ”

How many secrets are there? Lin Lanhu said suspiciously: "What are you and Zhao Liantang doing here?" ”

What are you doing with Zhao Liantang? Tang Ning couldn't help but hesitate a little when he heard this, it stands to reason that the second prince and the temple are colluding with each other, and they should be told about it.

Because since the second prince and the temple were in collusion, it was likely that the second prince also participated in the assassination outside the city that year.

Rong Xuan, Xiao Xiao, and Lin Lan still have lingering feelings about that assassination, and they are also victims of that assassination, and they have reason to know.

But Tang Ning was very hesitant, and the reason for his hesitation was naturally because of Lin Lan.

He wasn't afraid that Lin Lan would tell the second prince about this, he was just worried that Lin Lan would be sad, after all, she and the second prince still had a marriage.

Seeing that Tang Ning was looking at him with some worry and hesitation, Lin Lan was surprised and a little dazed: "Why are you looking at me like this?" Why does this matter still have anything to do with me? ”

Xiaoxiao and Rong Xuan also looked at Tang Ning with some hesitation, not understanding why Tang Ning was looking at him.

Lin Lan pouted, "Oh, say it quickly!" It's all like this, and you don't say it......"

Tang Ning hesitated for a moment but waved his hand to let the maids retreat, seeing Tang Ning so solemn, their appetites were suddenly hung up, and they all stared at Tang Ning with blank eyes.

Tang Ning said in a deep voice: "Actually, I should also tell you about this!" Two days ago, I asked Lao Zhao to arrest a steward. ”

"The reason why I want to arrest this steward is because I met the red girl Miaomiao who was in the Liufang River back then, she is a person from the temple, and she is also a very important person in the temple's capital."

"The assassination we encountered back then, Miao Miao was one of the people who planned it."

They all knew that Tang Ning instructed Zhao Liantang to arrest a steward, but they didn't expect it to be because of this.
