Chapter 147: Ascension

There were three cannon shots, and the gongs and drums of the government were resounding three times before, not only urging the relevant officials and officials to take place, but also telling the people that the Xianglong Mansion was going to try a big case today.

Rows of tall soldiers with bright armor stood straight like green pines outside the palace, and the coercive momentum was everywhere. The people who were watching from afar were muttering in a low voice, what a big deal was going on, making the battle more grand than the siege of the Yuan soldiers.

The wound on Zhang Zhensun's forehead was still aching, and the military doctor who was waiting beside him changed the gold sore medicine again, squeezing out some purple-black blood, and the old cat's iron needle was probably quenched with poison.

"Lord Zhang, the time has come, and everything outside has been fully arranged, just waiting for you, my lord!"

"Good! Ascend to the court to try the case! ”

The few guards who had followed Jiang Maotong and the others last night had already been interrogated individually one by one in the morning, and even the two lieutenants who had been drinking together at the table had not been able to get rid of Wang Daofu's separate interrogation.

All this was carried out under the noses of Qian Kang and the confused Jiang Maotong, every action made Qian Kang's heart tremble, it was only a matter of time before the whole thing was revealed, and his only thought was to regret the trip! It's a pity that now there is no way to go to heaven and no way to enter the ground, even if you want to commit suicide, there are four strong men around them with good eyes, and it is unlikely that they want to hit the wall.

Wang Daofu and Ling Zhen never slept peacefully, they were busy all night arresting and interrogating, and in the morning, they interrogated the leaders of the forbidden army except for Qian Kang and the others one by one. Some of them really don't know, and some of them know a little bit, but no one is to defend this brother, and the hidden secrets he knows and some of the bad things he came to do came out in front of Wang Daofu, without a little concealment but some branches, I wish these two people were unlucky earlier.

There were more than a dozen chairs on the left and on the right, and more than 30 officials of all sizes in Guangzhou sat upright, waiting for Zhang Zhensun to arrive and decide the case. The third-class servant with the torture stick in his hand looked straight forward without turning his eyes, and he was singing Tang Wei in a low voice in his throat.

"Master Zhang has arrived!"

"Mighty ......"

Zhang Zhensun walked out of the back hall quickly, sat behind the table and patted the wood, and the audience was suddenly silent. Dressed in a new court dress, the scars on his head were still bandaged, and he drank to the audience in a low voice: "Lord Wang, tell your colleagues about last night's events." ”

"Yes, sir!"

Wang Daofu said loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, after the banquet last night, I was discussing state affairs with Lord Zhang in the study, but I did not expect that an assassin would sneak into the inner house with the intention of assassinating Lord Zhang. Thanks to General Zhao, who arrived at the rescue, he used a green brick to crush the assassin to death at the critical moment, and Zhang Da was spared, but he also suffered a minor head injury. ”

"Boom!"

The officials in the audience, the surrounding guards, and the onlookers not far from the hall immediately exploded the camp when they heard Wang Daofu's words.

"Oh my God, there was a lot of noise here last night, it turned out to be an assassin!"

"Thanks to General Zhao, ah......"

"Who is so bold? It must have been the work of the defeated Yuan army. ”

"Stoning the assassin to death, is there still an accomplice? Otherwise, why would you ascend today! ”

"Lord Zhang is really a blessed person, we can't do without Lord Zhang in Guangzhou!"

Qian Kang, who was sitting at the bottom, was relieved, the old cat was actually stoned to death by Zhao Tianyou, or when he was about to succeed, this Zhao Tianyou, is it really my nemesis! But the old cat is dead, so there is no proof of who instigated it, no matter what means Zhang Zhensun uses, his mouth can be tighter, and a soft word cannot be revealed.

Thinking of this, he turned his head and glanced at his brother-in-law, Jiang Maotong, who had woken up from a hangover, only to see that his face was like ashes, and his body was a little unnaturally trembling.

Qian Kang hated, although he had a thousand words in his heart, but now he couldn't even get out of the atmosphere, but there were four or five pairs of eyes staring at him behind him.

After deliberately making the scene lively for a while, Wang Daofu cleared his throat and continued: "The assassin was stoned to death on the spot, and his body was empty, and there was no place to identify even his clothes. ”

Jiang Maotong lowered his head on the seat, his legs trembled violently, and he pinched his thighs with his own hands, which eased a little, so as not to make the people around him feel too abnormal.

"But there is no endless road, no matter how skillfully he arranges it, after all, there are omissions. In the vicinity of Zhang's Mansion, we had soldiers patrolling the night, and at the time of the incident, a total of 12 idlers were invited into Zhang's Mansion.

After careful questioning and cross-examination, ten of them had legitimate reasons and identities, and they inadvertently approached Zhang's mansion, and two of them did not have sufficient reasons, so I brought them up today and asked Lord Zhang to interrogate them personally. ”

The shackles sounded, and two unkempt people were pushed out of the side hall, and after coming to the middle of the hall, they knelt on the ground facing Zhang Zhensun's table.

Qian Kang's heart immediately pinched, these two forbidden troops were personally sent by him to inquire about the news around Zhang's mansion, and he didn't come back last night so that he couldn't let go of his mind all the time, it turned out that they had been taken down by Zhang Zhensun.

"Who's in the hall?"

"Lord Qiqi Zhang, we are the guards of the Lin'an Jinjia Army, and we were ordered to protect the envoy Jiang Maotong of the Qincha to Guangzhou City."

"Why don't you return to camp at night and stay outside the walls of Zhang's mansion?"

"The two of us were ordered by Lord Qian Kangqian to inquire about the news outside Zhang's mansion, and then went back to the camp to report to him!"

Qian Kangteng stood up, stretched out his finger and pointed at the two of them and shouted: "You two are talking nonsense, I just left from the Zhang Mansion for a banquet, and I asked you to find out the news of a fart." It must be that you two are greedy and drunk, or you are looking for the direction of the willow lane of Huajie at night, so you accidentally walked to Zhang's mansion, don't think about it! ”

"Sit down, in the courtroom, and speak again, and be careful that I slap your mouth. This time, I still have a reputation on you, so I will let you go first, and I can only defend myself when Lord Zhang asks you! ”

After Wang Daofu warned Qian Kang, he summoned the five forbidden soldiers who followed the banquet that night and knelt in front of Zhang Zhensun in a line.

"When the five of you followed Jiang Maotong to the banquet last night and entered the Zhang Mansion together, how many people were there?"

"There are six of us!"

"Who's the other one? Where did it go? ”

"That person is the companion of Master Jiang, not a soldier in the forbidden army, we just know that his nickname is Lao Mao!"

As soon as Qian Kang heard this, he didn't expect that after such a moment in the morning, Wang Daofu had already checked everything clearly. Then it is impossible not to admit guilt now, so there is still a choice, die yourself first or die your brother-in-law first!
