Chapter 1264: The East Palace Incident (I)

Although the prison of the Criminal Department is cleaner than the general memory, it is a reminder after all, the prisoners are all serious criminals, eating, drinking, and sleeping in a small cell, and over time, the smell in the cell is naturally not very good, so Liu Dewei usually doesn't like to come here.

But today Liu Dewei had to come, because this very troublesome guy actually caused a lot of trouble, because Li Shimin had already convicted Su Gan Chengji of the death penalty, after the news came out, there was an official in the criminal department who had an old relationship with Su Gan Chengji, so he went to visit out of friendship, ready to tell him the bad news, and also prepared wine and food to see him off.

It's just that no one expected that after hearing the news that he had been sentenced to death, Su Gan Chengji suddenly sent troops to kidnap the official of the Criminal Department who went to visit, and then claimed that he had a big secret to report, but he was only willing to tell Liu Dewei, who was a scholar, about it, and said that as long as Liu Dewei went, he would definitely release him.

It's really a coincidence, the guy who was held hostage by Su Gan Chengji is also surnamed Liu, and he is also Liu Dewei's nephew, it was he who promoted this nephew to serve in the Criminal Department, but he didn't expect him to have a relationship with Su Gan Chengji, but now he is held hostage by the other party, which makes Liu Dewei also angry and annoyed, but he can't really watch his nephew die in the hands of Su Gan Chengji, so he finally had to leave his official duties and come to the prison of the Criminal Department.

It was getting late, and the light in the cells was dim, so there were torches lit in the cells, and in one of the cells, a tall man was holding a young official, who had no weapon in his hand, but seeing his stout right hand on the officer's throat, everyone had no doubt that this hand had the strength to break the officer's neck.

Liu Dewei strode to the cell, and saw the nephew of the family who was held hostage at a glance, and couldn't help but snort coldly, at this time, the captain in charge of the guard stepped forward to report the situation, but Liu Dewei said with a displeased expression at this time: "Can't you save one person from so many of you?" ”

"Shang Shu's forgiveness, it's not that I don't do my best, but this Su Gan Chengji is the personal guard of His Royal Highness the Prince, and he is already famous for his bravery in Chang'an, and we also wanted to save Liu Simen before, but we rushed several times but were blocked back by Su Gan Chengji." At this time, the captain in charge of this place said with a wry smile on his face, Liu Simen is also Liu Dewei's nephew, because the Criminal Department has four divisions, namely the Criminal Department, the Duguan Division, the Bibu Division, and the Simen Division, and Liu Dewei's nephew is the director of the Simen Division.

Liu Dewei couldn't help but snort coldly again when he heard this, and then strode to the door of Su Gan Chengji's cell and said loudly: "Su Gan Chengji, you want to see what happened to Ben Shangshu, but no matter what, you are now holding the imperial court officials hostage, which is already a crime on top of a crime, I advise you to let people go quickly!" ”

"Hehe, it has been condemned to death in the next place, so why do you care about adding another sin?" I saw that Su Gan Chengji grinned indifferently at this time, although he was a martial artist, his brain was not stupid, and he was even more shrewd than ordinary people, so at the moment of life and death, he also decided to take a risk.

"You ......" Liu Dewei didn't expect the rough man's words to be so sharp, and he couldn't help but be speechless at the moment. At this time, Liu Simen, who was kidnapped, looked at his clan uncle with a pleading face, hoping that the other party could save his life.

"Liu Shangshu, although I am a rough man, I also know the truth of what I say, in fact, Liu Simen and I are friends, and I have never thought of hurting him, but the stakes are very high, so I borrowed him, because only in this way can I see you!" At this moment, I saw that Su Gan Chengji suddenly spoke again, and what was even more unexpected was that after he said these words, he took the initiative to let go of Liu Simen.

Liu Simen, who was let go, didn't react at first, and when he found that he had regained his freedom, he immediately escaped from Su Gan Chengji's cell with an arrow, and then turned around and scolded him: "You bastard thing, you bastard, I was kind enough to see you off, but you will take revenge, and even if I am blind, I actually recognized you as a friend......

In the face of Liu Simen's scolding, I saw that Su Gan Chengji smiled calmly, and then bowed down and apologized: "Brother Liu forgives his sins, and he is also in order to save his life, and he made this decision in a hurry, if he can keep this life in the future, he will be beaten or punished and let Brother Liu deal with it!" ”

"Okay, why don't you let me step down, haven't you lost enough people by staying here?" At this moment, Liu Dewei also opened his nephew fiercely and said angrily, which made Liu Simen immediately close his mouth and dare not speak again, but a pair of eyes still glared at Su Gan Chengji resentfully.

"Su Gan Chengji, didn't you say that there is a shocking secret to say, now that Ben Shangshu has come, you can say it now, right?" At this time, Liu Dewei finally looked at Su Gan Chengji and asked, originally he didn't believe that the other party would have any secrets, he just thought that the other party was just struggling to hold his nephew hostage, but he didn't expect that he would take the initiative to let go of the hostage when he saw him, which made him immediately feel that Su Gan Chengji should really have something to talk to him.

"This ......" I saw that Su Gan Chengji showed a hesitant expression at this time, and then looked at the people behind Liu Dewei, and then spoke again, "Liu Shangshu, if I say this matter, I'm afraid it will be a thing that breaks the sky, and before that, the less people know about this matter, the better, so do you think you can let the left and right retreat?" Of course you can lock the cell door and we'll talk through the cell. ”

Hearing Su Gan Chengji's words, Liu Dewei couldn't help frowning, this Su Gan Chengji is just a small personal guard, although he was involved in the case of King Qi's rebellion, but the case of King Qi's rebellion has been decided, and there is no possibility of overturning the case.

Seeing that Liu Dewei was silent, Su Gan Chengji in the cell showed an anxious look at this time, and finally suddenly knelt down on the ground with a "bang" and begged: "Liu Shangshu, what I said is definitely not exaggerated, and this matter must not be leaked out in advance, otherwise not only will it be difficult for the villain to protect his head, but even Liu Shangshu may be difficult to protect himself!" ”

Liu Dewei didn't expect that Su Gan Chengji would come to this set, but before he could speak, Liu Simen next to him said hatefully: "Uncle, don't believe this Su Gan Chengji, he and I had a good conversation just now, but in a blink of an eye, he turned his face and didn't recognize anyone, and he held me hostage, you must not be deceived by him!" ”

"Stand down!" Liu Dewei had not yet decided whether to agree to Su Gan Chengji's request, but now when he saw this unsuccessful nephew jumping out, he was angry and reprimanded, which made Liu Simen also startled, so he had to retreat in disgrace.

"Stand down, too!" Liu Dewei waved his hand again at this time, because Liu Simen was held hostage, so the cell was also crowded with guards, with Liu Dewei's order, these guards also retreated, but before they left, they also locked the cell of Su Gan Chengji, after all, Liu Dewei's safety is the most important.

When the other people around him retreated, and even the prisoners in the surrounding cells were taken away, then Liu Dewei stepped forward and asked, "Can you talk about it now?" ”

Su Gan Chengji also kept staring at the people around him to leave, and after making sure that there were no other people around, he took a step forward, grabbed the fence of the cell with both hands and whispered: "Liu Shangshu, I know that you are an important minister in the court, and you are also the founding hero who followed the Emperor Taishang and His Majesty to fight the world, and you are also loyal to Your Majesty, so the villain dares to tell you the news!" ”

"Don't talk about this nonsense, just say what do you know?" Liu Dewei said a little impatiently at this time, he didn't want to listen to a death row prisoner say these compliments.

"This ......" I saw that Su Gan Chengji hesitated again at this time, and then finally gritted his teeth and said, "In Xia, as the prince's personal guard, although his status is not high, he can access some secrets of the prince, and as far as he knows, the prince is recruiting assassins, preparing to assassinate King Wei first, and then assassinate His Majesty, in order to seek the throne!" ”

"What!" Liu Dewei couldn't help but tremble in fright when he heard Su Gan Chengji's words, and then took a step forward with angry eyes, and grabbed Su Gan Chengji's collar and asked again, "Do you know what the crime of slandering the prince is, and then not only will you die, but even your nine clans will be implicated?" ”

"The villain has now committed a capital crime, and the reason why he said this is nothing more than hoping to save his life, where do you dare to lie?" I saw that Su Gan Chengji also smiled bitterly at this time, although he is famous for his bravery, but in fact, his courage is not as big as the legend, in fact, he is very life-saving, so now he does not hesitate to betray Li Chengqian and make meritorious service.

Hearing these words of Su Gan Chengji, Liu Dewei also believed that the other party had no need to lie, but he felt that his brain was even more confused at this time, because just like Su Gan Chengji said, this matter is a major event that pierces the sky, if it is found out that Li Chengqian's plot is true, it will also be a great shock to Datang, and it may even shake the foundation of Datang.

"This ...... This ......" Liu Dewei's mind was in a mess, and the whole person was trembling, and he couldn't figure out a clue for a long time, let alone what to do, and finally Su Gan Chengji opened his mouth and reminded, "Liu Shangshu, the prince must have known about my arrest, and he also knows that I know his secret, if you don't report to Your Majesty quickly, maybe the prince will launch a coup d'Γ©tat in advance, and then Your Majesty and King Wei will be in danger!" ”

Hearing Su Gan Chengji's reminder, Liu Dewei came to his senses, and hurriedly asked people to prepare horses, he wanted to enter the palace overnight!
