Chapter 758: Accidental Collision
Ying'er was finally convinced, and with a hint of blush on her little face, she obediently entered Yin Ping's house.
Chen Fei made a victory gesture after Ying'er entered the house, although Ying'er didn't see it, but Yan Yun'er on the side saw it clearly, and she pinched Chen Fei hard in anger.
"Badass! I know that I am fooling Ying'er! ”
Chen Fei grabbed Yan Yun'er's thin waist, leaned in front of her, and asked, "If I get drunk, will you take care of me?" ”
"Take care of you big-headed ghost!" Yan Yun'er stepped heavily on Chen Fei's instep, causing a miserable howl!
"Whew~~~"
On the third day after Li Shimin's departure, a political storm broke out in the court.
The person who assassinated Chen Fei was actually instructed by a minister in the DPRK and the central government, and the person concerned, Chen Fei, came forward to correct him on the spot, and the human and material evidence was complete, and no matter how the minister shouted injustice, he could not change the outcome.
Li Shimin ordered this person to be knocked off his official hat and put him in prison after hearing it, and in addition, he ordered Dali Temple to continue to follow this clue, and he suspected that someone was behind the instruction of this person to commit the crime.
Some of the ministers in the DPRK and China were trembling, some of them were afraid that they would be implicated, and some of them felt that things were a little unusual, and that Li Shimin had other intentions, and that so many ministers had fallen recently, and they didn't know if the next unlucky one would be themselves.
Among those present, except for Li Shimin, only the eldest grandson Wuji and Chen Fei understood what was going on in their hearts, but they could only sneer in their hearts, but they couldn't say it on the surface.
On the afternoon of the day after the official was dismissed, Dali Temple "searched" some evidence in the official's home, proving that the case was related to Lu Mingyu, a son of the Lu family.
So the yamen of Dali Temple felt Lu Mingyu's residence in a hurry, and arrested Lu Mingyu, who was at a loss, without extra nonsense, and directly took the shackles and escorted him into the Dali Temple boss.
Lu Mingyu shouted at first, but in the end, he began to feel weak, thinking that it might be the revelation of the matter, which led to his arrest, and at the same time secretly annoyed that Zhou Daowu betrayed him, because this matter was basically only involved in him and Zhou Daowu.
So after being imprisoned in Dali Temple and enjoying three tortures, Lu Mingyu happily recruited the mistakes he made, the origin of the assassin, and the cooperation with Zhou Daowu.
So... Sun Fujia, who originally came to pretend to interrogate the case, was dumbfounded, he was sure that Lu Mingyu's confession was definitely not arranged in advance, because the forged confession was still on his desk, but he didn't expect Lu Mingyu to tell the truth, and what he said was clear and clear, not like nonsense at all.
This... Can a random trial catch a big fish? Sun Fujia was messy in the cold wind, but he quickly reacted and asked Lu Mingyu to record his confession, and after signing and drawing, he personally brought this confession into the palace to face the saint.
Among them, Zhou Daowu, the Duke of the State of China, was involved, and it was the assassination in which Zhou Daowu personally participated, which is definitely a big deal!
Li Shimin was happy after seeing this confession, since Lu Mingyu really had something to do with this matter, then he could justifiably attack the Lu family! But then he fell into deep disappointment.
"Daowu? How could it be you? Why did you kill Chen Fei? Zhou Daowu's father was a hero who fought with Li Shimin, and died early due to illness. Pity Xiao Zhou Daowu has no one to take care of, so he has been growing up with Li Shimin since he was a child, Li Shimin regards him as half a son, but he actually did such a thing, how can he not make Li Shimin feel disappointed and uncomfortable?
"You've always been a good boy! I have high hopes for you, why would I do such a thing? Sun Aiqing? ”
"The minister is here."
"Does anyone else know about this confession?"
"There is a small official in charge of the record who knows, but the minister has already given him a gag order, Your Majesty can rest assured, it will not be passed on."
"Well, omit Zhou Daowu's identity and announce Lu Mingyu's crimes."
Sun Fujia was puzzled: "That week's Taoist affairs ........"
"Investigate him secretly to see if anyone is behind his back, and if there is, tell me immediately!"
"Obey the order!" Sun Fujia paused and said, "Your Majesty, if there is no one to instruct you, what should you do?" ”
"No one instructed ......." Li Shimin frowned deeply, his face was slightly tired, and said: "If no one is behind the scenes, then he will also be arrested and pressed into Dali Temple for trial." The assassination of the minister of the DPRK and the Central Committee is a great crime, and no one can remove him, not to mention that he is still a prince of the country, and if he does such a thing, he must be responsible for what he has done! ”
Sun Fujia knew what Li Shimin meant, and bowed deeply, "Your Majesty understands the righteousness, and the ministers admire it in every way!" ”
"Okay, don't say compliments, go and handle the case." Li Shimin waved his hand, and Sun Fujia retired.
Lu Mingyu's confession was released the next day, and there was an uproar in the DPRK and China. The assassination of Chen Fei was actually instructed by the Lu family, whether it was true or false, everyone knew that the Lu family was going to be unlucky.
First of all, all the officials of the Lu family's faction were suspended pending trial, and secondly, many of the Lu family's properties were investigated, and almost all of the gambling houses, green buildings, shops, and so on in Chang'an City were seized.
This abnormal atmosphere, no matter how slow the reaction is, I know Li Shimin's intentions. This is going to take the Lu family!
Some smart ministers thought of the butcher's knife lit up at the entrance of the vegetable market before and dismissed a group of ministers, and immediately knew Li Shimin's intentions, which was dissatisfied with the family! Li Shimin is telling the family in this way: You all be honest with me, otherwise, just like the Lu family!
Punish someone as a warning to others! Naked killing chickens and monkeys!
On this day, many ministers of the court and China sent their servants to pass on a series of things that happened in Chang'an City to the family behind them.
At the same time, ministers from the same family faction visited one after another to discuss countermeasures and analyze the current situation.
In short, Li Shimin's knife was ruthless enough, so that the families who were about to move settled down at once.
At least in the near future, I don't dare to continue to make waves.
However, this is just the beginning, how could Li Shimin let go of the Lu family so easily, and the next punishment will continue, this is just an appetizer.
However, the real murderer of Chen Fei, Zhou Daowu was not caught by the people of Dali Temple, and when Dali Temple rushed to Zhou Daowu's house, he learned that Zhou Daowu had not returned to his house for nearly seven or eight days when he went out to do business, and the people did not know where he went.
Cai He immediately dispatched bad people to search for traces of Zhou Daowu in and around Chang'an City, but unfortunately, this person seemed to have disappeared, and all the news was like a stone sinking into the sea, and he couldn't find the slightest trace...........
