Chapter Seventy-Four: Friends
When the guards in the pavilion found King Zining, the entire teahouse was covered in blood. Scarlet was all over the walls and the ground, and even a few calligraphy and paintings were sprinkled with his blood.
The guards all covered their noses, otherwise it would be hard to bear the pungent blood.
After a while, the Criminal Department sent officials to inspect it, and after simply collecting the body, it also sealed off the entire pavilion layer by layer, and all the cadres and others inside were not allowed to go out.
When the news reached the cabinet, Gao Gong was discussing countermeasures with Zhang Juzheng, how to stop these officials in the court who were shouting and shouting to kill, and after learning the news of King Zining's death, they were all shocked again.
If this case is not clear, a war between the two countries is inevitable.
Compared with Zhang Juzheng, the high arch can be said to be even more shocking. It was only a few hours since he met King Zining, and according to the time when King Zining was assassinated, the time between them was not far away.
The capital pavilion is probably clear, and the defense is not tight. A few years ago, the envoy of the Japanese embassy died in the pavilion, but fortunately, the Japanese country did not pursue it, and the matter was settled.
It's just that this time it was the younger brother of the Emperor of the Li Dynasty, a prince, a relative of the emperor, and the matter was too big.
Looking at the piles of folds on the small table, Gao Gong's face was heavy, and after a long time, he hummed softly: "Mr. Zhang...... What do you think is going to be? ”
Zhang Juzheng was worried about what to do with Shen Wuyan's side, and he wanted to ask King Zining to ask some inside information about General Li, but before he could put forward this idea, he was already dead.
At this time, Gao Gong asked about this, Zhang Juzheng frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice: "King Zining's case is sent to the Criminal Department to investigate...... It's just Mr. Shen's side...... Gao Ge Lao, do you really think that he has the intention of assassinating His Majesty? ”
Zhang Juzheng knew that there was a deep gap between Gao Gong and Shen Wuyan, he had long wanted to get rid of Shen Wuyan, but he had never had the opportunity, and he had tried his best to use all kinds of means over the years, but he was always avoided by Shen Wuyan.
This is really a great opportunity to get rid of Shen Wuyan, whether Shen Wuyan has colluded with General Li or not, the guilt is inevitable, and you can take this opportunity to make the case bigger and take the opportunity to eradicate Shen Wuyan.
In this way, the mouths of these scholars and doctors can be stopped, after all, this case was started by Shen Wuyan, and General Li of the Li Dynasty is just a desperate person, so they naturally have no reason to shout and kill. Second, he took the opportunity to get rid of Shen Wuyan's henchman.
Hearing Zhang Juzheng ask this question, Gao Gong's face hesitated slightly, he really had other plans, and they were all properly deployed, and in a few moments, Shen Wuyan would return to Beizhen Fusi Prison.
But when Zhang Juzheng asked at this moment, he suddenly showed bitterness on his face and sighed lightly: "Who would have thought that Mr. Shen, who is loyal and patriotic on weekdays, could have such wolf ambitions...... actually colluded with the traitors of the Li Dynasty to assassinate His Majesty...... However, there are many doubts in this case, what does Mr. Zhang think? ”
Zhang Juzheng saw that Gao Gong kicked the problem to himself again, and secretly sighed in his heart that this old fox was really powerful, so he immediately waved his hand and said, "This matter has its own criminal department to investigate...... You and I are still thinking about how to prevent the war between the two countries......"
Gao Gong nodded slightly, and said softly: "Now we have to stop the problems in the imperial court...... Second, the news of the killing of King Zining must be blocked, and it must not be transmitted to the Li Dynasty......"
"The news naturally can't be blocked...... Zhang Juzheng snorted lightly and said coldly: "Now there are rumors everywhere in the capital that King Zining of the Li Dynasty died in my Daming Pavilion...... I'm afraid it won't be long before there will be news from Li Chao's side......"
Gao Gong's pupils shrank, and he said in surprise: "It's only been a few hours...... It seems that the person who did this must have been premeditated...... From this point of view, the assassination of His Majesty and the assassination of King Zining should be the same people......"
"How's General Li's interrogation going?" Zhang Juzheng suddenly said curiously.
General Li is now imprisoned in the Fusi Edict Prison in Beizhen, under the personal care of Jinyiwei, so not many people know the news over there, and it is difficult for even the Criminal Department to know a thing or two.
Gao Gong's face suddenly turned dark, and he shouted angrily: "Feng Bao's eunuch is now powerful, so he doesn't take anyone seriously...... The person who had just been sent to inquire about the news came back and said that Feng Bao refused to answer all questions......"
Zhang Ju was also angry on the front, but he was really relieved in his heart. General Li's move must have been planned in advance, and there must have been a plan to frame Shen Wuyan, and now that Feng Bao has sealed the prison, it must have been General Li who said something unfavorable to Shen Wuyan.
If these news were known to Feng Bao, he would be able to make a big fuss, and then Shen Wuyan would be unable to escape death.
"Look at it this way...... Compared to Gonggong Feng's side, there is also trouble...... Since it was Jinyiwei's trial, there was no need for the elder to worry too much......"
Gao Gong raised his eyes and glared at Zhang Juzheng suddenly, and snorted lightly: "Shen Wuyan has a deep relationship with that eunuch, how can this case be investigated...... Zhang Juzheng, why are you still talking to that eunuch now? ”
Zhang Juzheng sighed lightly and said with a wry smile: "It was Your Majesty who asked Feng Bao to try this case...... Why is the old man so blamed on the bottom, otherwise...... I'm going to find out the truth and truth with Detective Feng? ”
Seeing that Gao Gong was already annoyed, Zhang Juzheng didn't want to entangle with him. After all, the other party even dared to reprimand Xu Jie directly, but now if he is tearing his face with the other party, he really can't draw it.
Thinking like this, he was busy arching his fists and quickly walked towards the outside of the pavilion.
Gao Gong did not stop him, he knew that he was at odds with Feng Bao, and he definitely couldn't hear the slightest news. Now Zhang Juzheng is willing to inquire about the news, but it is also a good thing.
Thinking like this, he suddenly remembered another matter, and hurriedly walked out of the main hall and headed towards the Qianqing Palace.
……
After Shen Wuyan returned to the small courtyard, the entire courtyard was surrounded by Jinyi Guards. Although he had not yet been arrested, he was almost imprisoned here.
But these are really expected things for him, so he simply sits in the pavilion and eats chilled fruits, chatting and playing chess with Li Wan'er and others.
At first, Li Wan'er was still a little worried, after all, these people were all famous Jinyi guards, but when he saw Feng Bao coming over and shouting at these Jinyi guards, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
In the small courtyard, Li Wan'er glanced at a woman sitting on the side who was embroidering, and couldn't help sighing: "Sister-in-law Gao...... You're embroidering every day...... I can't use it at home......"
This Mrs. Gao is the wife of the cabinet scholar Gao Yi, since the Gao Mansion was destroyed by fire, under Shen Wuyan's suggestion, Gao Yi's whole family moved to the small courtyard.
In fact, the whole family is just Gao Yi and his wife. But his sons and his daughters and his sons and grandchildren are now in a foreign land.
At first, Gao Yi and his wife moved to the small courtyard, but it made the courtyard more lively, and after returning from Honglu Temple on weekdays, Shen Wuyan also had a gossip person. And when Li Wan'er has nothing to do, she can chat with Mrs. Gao for a while.
It's just that after a long time, Shen Wuyan also feels strange.
At that time, the plan was that the old house of Gaoge was burned down, and now it needs a place to live, and after the new house is repaired, it is necessary to move back. It's just that a long time has passed now, and there is still no movement in the new home.
And the Grohe couple are really not very easy to get along with, or they are too cautious.
In comparison, Shen Wuyan is Grohe's subordinate. It's just that Shen Wuyan talks on weekdays, but Gao Yi is still very serious, and there is a look of respect in his eyebrows, which makes Shen Wuyan quite embarrassed.
As for that Mrs. Gao, she was really cautious. Every day in the small courtyard, in addition to weaving cloth is embroidery, some of these embroideries are kept for their own use, and more are taken out to sell.
Probably among the officials in the entire capital, this old family is so frugal.
Listening to the question, Mrs. Gao looked up at Li Wan'er, who was flipping through the book, and said with a smile: "Take it out and exchange it for some silver...... Subsidizing some household ...... If Wan'er needs it, you can pick some and take them......"
Li Wan'er hurriedly shook her head and said, "There are enough at home...... Sister-in-law, look...... The officers and soldiers are now gathered around the ...... Something went wrong with Wordless in the DPRK...... I'm afraid it will affect you. ”
Mrs. Gao hurriedly waved her hand and said, "It's okay...... The master told him before going out just now that at this critical time, he definitely couldn't leave Mr. Shen behind......"
Shen Wuyan, who was playing chess with Shen Tianjun on the side, suddenly smiled faintly and said, "Sister-in-law can rest assured that living here is ......"
While chatting like this, Gao Yi hurriedly jogged outside into the small courtyard. But seeing that he looked in a hurry, it was obvious that he was not willing to spend money on a carriage along the way, which was really pitiful.
Without waiting for Shen Wuyan to quip, he said loudly: "King Zining...... King Zining: He was killed...... In the middle of the inn......"
"What?" The smile on Shen Wuyan's face instantly stiffened, and he suddenly sat up from the chair, and said in surprise: "This is how it is...... But he was entangled by this group of sticks. ”
"Sticks?" Li Wan'er on the side frowned.
Shen Wuyan hurriedly explained: "That's it...... Stick Slot ...... It's hard to explain a game right now...... What's the news from the Criminal Department? ”
Gao Yi listened to Shen Wuyan's words and sentences, but he still listened very carefully, and after Shen Wuyan finished speaking, he said, "The murderer is being searched for in the whole city...... However, it is said that he was stabbed to death with a sword...... The meaning of the criminal department is ......"
He suddenly stopped talking, his face showed a hint of hesitation, and only after a moment did he say, "What does the criminal department mean...... Could it be that Mr. Shen, you colluded with thieves......"
"Me?" Shen Wuyan laughed miserably, and said with a wry smile: "General Li still doesn't know what the situation is, and now there is another Zining King......
"Zining Wang ......" Mrs. Gao, who was embroidering flowers on the side, suddenly whispered: "The name is familiar...... Master...... Isn't this King Zining your North Korean friend? ”
"North Korean friends?" Shen Wuyan's face changed slightly, and he was busy looking at Gao Yi, but he remembered the Gao Ge Lao who King Zining had repeatedly mentioned at that time, but now it seemed that it was not Gao Gong, but Gao Yi.
"This North Korean friend of yours...... That's interesting......
