Chapter 171: A Fire
Once again, the early dynasty still revolves around the murder of Ye Yu, and it seems that all national affairs today are not as important as this.
Zhao Yan watched the courtiers disturbing one after another, and this time he did not say a word, but agreed to try the case of Ye Yu's murder.
However, this case did not go through Dali Temple, the Criminal Department, and the Yushitai, but was directly handed over to Qingwang Zhao Kai for trial.
Xiaozong Zhao Yan's decision surprised everyone. No one thought that this case would be handed over to the second prince Zhao Kai, and the deep meaning of this was enough to make the ministers secretly figure it out for a long time.
It has been two years since the prince died of illness, and Xiaozong Zhao Yan has been slow to establish the prince, if he is ranked according to seniority, he should be Qingwang Zhao Kai. But Zhao Yan seems to appreciate King Gong Zhao Tang more, which makes the two sides always fight openly and secretly.
Now Ye Yu's murder case involves Princess Gong's younger brother, although it has been Princess Gong Li's family that has been pressuring, but there is no shortage of the shadow of King Gong Zhao Dan.
Now Xiaozong Zhao Yan disregards the face of the third son, Gongwang Zhao Dan, and involves the second son, Qingwang Zhao Kai, into this case, is there any deep meaning in this?
Most of the courtiers were confused and didn't know what they meant, but only Yu Yunwen's face showed a dignified look.
And the opposite Taiwei Zhang said that although this arrangement was completely beyond his expectations, he seemed to have captured something from Zhao Yan's layout this time......
In King Qing's mansion, Zhao Kai was accompanying his son to read and write in the study, and the princess Sun was accompanying him, and the family of three was very warm.
"Husband, it's late at night, let's rest early!"
Zhao Kai raised his head with great interest, showed his slightly pale face in the light, smiled and comforted: "It's okay, it's rare that this little thing is easy to learn today, so teach him more as a husband......"
"Heng'er, go back with your mother, don't delay your father's rest!"
The four-year-old child sitting in Zhao Kai's arms, holding an asymmetrical brush in his little hand, pouted very stubbornly: "I don't want to, the child should practice calligraphy well, and become a great calligrapher in the future, just like that Ye What's ......"
The little doll muttered to the end, and even he didn't know what he was talking about.
Sun touched the child's head dotingly, and then pretended to be displeased: "Your father has always been in poor health, you are so sticky, how can your father rest?" ”
"Then the father will teach the child to write tomorrow, okay?" The little doll put down the brush and turned her head to look at Zhao Kai with big smart eyes.
Zhao Kai lowered his head and hooked his son's nose, and said with a smile: "Okay, good, my father promised you!" ”
"Heng'er, hurry, go back with your mother, don't disturb your father!"
Sun picked up his son directly and left the study.
At this time, Zhao Kai was the only one left in the study, a cold wind blew, Zhao Kai's face suddenly flushed, and then he hurriedly took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and covered his mouth and nose.
After a violent cough, Zhao Kai's face became even paler, and the moment he took off the handkerchief, there was a faint bright red on the white handkerchief.
Squeak!
The door was pushed open again, and Sun had already walked in with a decoction, looking at his husband who was silent, his eyes full of distress.
"Come on, it's time to drink the medicine......"
"Don't get in the way, you should rest sooner!"
Zhao Kai waved his hand and motioned for the Sun family to go down and rest earlier.
But seeing that Sun's expression was very puzzled, Zhao Kai explained: "I just think that I can't sleep tonight, go ahead......"
As soon as Zhao Kai's words fell, he heard the housekeeper outside the door report that someone from the palace was coming.
"Come late at night, it seems that the king's hunch is not wrong, please come into the study quickly!"
Zhao Kai's pale face suddenly had a trace of blood, and he ordered the housekeeper to lead the people in the palace into the study.
……
Regarding the trial of Ye Yu, it has attracted the attention of all parties, because this case has been so delicate from the beginning that people can't help but look forward to it.
At this time, Ye Yu was squatting in the prison and living a dark life. Although it was only a day and a night of detention, it made Ye Yu experience the feeling of being imprisoned in the future.
However, in the cell of Dali Temple, Zhang Mengyi instructed the cell boss to take care of him, and Ye Yu did not suffer much.
In this dim and damp cell, Ye Yu was lying on the wooden bed, his mind was constantly running.
He wanted to know what had happened on this day and night, and why in the blink of an eye, he had become a murderer and a prisoner.
This qiē came too suddenly, and he was a little overwhelmed.
In the face of unknown things, people will habitually fear, and he Ye Yu is naturally no exception.
But at this time, Ye Yu knew very well that he had to restrain his flustered heart, because only by restraining himself could he subdue the enemy......
But just as he was about to sort out his thoughts and analyze the case to save himself, suddenly Dali Temple burst into flames. The ferocity of the fire not only burned the bodies of the deceased in the mortuary, but also spread to the cells.
All of a sudden, the entire cell was completely chaotic, and the prisoners were in a mess, and there was a stampede. Although Ye Yu was also in a hurry to rush out of the fire, the exit was too narrow, and now the crowd was surging, and he couldn't get out at all.
At this time, a few people in the next cell broke open the cell door, and instead of running out directly, they all gathered towards Ye Yu.
Ye Yu looked at this group of fierce and vicious prisoners, and knew that these people were not real prisoners. Thinking that the mastermind behind the scenes really looks up to himself, it can be said that the agency has tried its best to make it happen, and he is willing to stop until he dies in prison!
In the face of this group of people's approaching step by step, Ye Yu also showed a dignified look, more than a dozen daggers, reflecting a faint blue cold light in the dim cell.
At this moment, Ye Yu was forced into a corner......
In a teahouse not far from Dali Temple, the old man in purple looked at the fire of Dali Temple, twisted his beard lightly and said softly: "Eagle, this thing is done well!" ”
"It's all the master's clever plan, how dare his subordinates ask for credit......"
"Hmmm! If this happens, the old man will definitely reward the lord! ”
The man in purple was very satisfied with the eagle's attitude, and then continued: "The lord set fire to it, then Ye Yu can be said to be dead and has no place to be buried!" But it's not to blame anyone else, who made him a sinister? ”
"Yes, even if the fire does not burn to death, it will be eliminated by our people!"
The man in purple nodded thoughtfully: "Even if this evil seed survives by luck, all the evidence has been burned, and it is a dream to overturn the case!" And what awaits him is also the unbearable ending of the king's law......"
"The lord is really wise, and his subordinates admire him!"
"Remember that the end of this matter should be clean and neat, and the people who are placed in the cell will be left if they die, and those who do not come back from death will remember to kill them all! There are also people involved in the operation this time, the old man doesn't want to hear gossip, kill! ”
Just a few words can determine the life and death of other people, and life is nothing more than that.
