Chapter 199: Bad news one after another
Returned to the East Palace, it was still early, Li Hong planned to go to Dali Temple to have a look, now it is winter, and it is not far from the New Year's Pass, the matter of Li Yifu can not be delayed any longer, it must be solved as soon as possible!
Later, I am afraid that all departments will begin to deploy the things at the end of the year, preparing for the festival, and the affairs of Li Yifu will be placed after the year, and the emperor will also have a holiday during the New Year, and during the New Year, unless there are major affairs, they will not be disposed of.
So we must bring down Li Yifu during this time, at least convict!
Otherwise, it will change later, and it will not be something Li Hong wants to see!
The time of the triage of the three divisions is actually uncertain, although the emperor has made a decree, but the specific time is difficult to determine, of course, it generally does not delay too long.
However, this time, the presiding judge tacitly set aside time, Li Hong's side is because he has not yet had enough evidence of Li Yifu's betrayal of the official mantle, and now it is not enough to bring him down!
At the same time, Li Yifu's side is also secretly preparing, as for who will make the first move, it depends on which side is ready first......
However, before Li Hong was about to stop, he saw Wang Fusheng hurriedly walk in and whispered to Li Hong.
"Your Highness, Di Sicheng asks to see you!"
There was a bit of weirdness in his tone, which made Li Hong frown slightly.
Since the last time the matter of the three divisions was agreed on in the Zichen Palace, in order to avoid suspicion, Di Renjie has not been to the East Palace, and he came directly today without prior notice, something must have happened!
And Li Hong vaguely felt that it was Li Yifu who had made a move earlier......
"Please stay in the front hall for a while, and go right away!"
A hint of coldness flashed in Li Hong's eyes. Said in a deep voice.
"Chen Dali Temple Cheng Di Renjie see His Royal Highness the Prince!"
When Li Hong hurriedly changed his clothes, he came to the front hall. found that Di Renjie was waiting in the front hall with a anxious face, and saw Li Hong coming. Hurriedly stepped forward to salute.
"Huaiying doesn't have to be polite, sit down!"
Li Hong's face remained unchanged, and he said lightly.
The two sat down separately, and then Di Renjie hurriedly said.
"Your Highness, I'm afraid something has happened to the trial of the three divisions......"
Halfway through his words, Di Renjie saw Li Hong pressing his hand down.
"Huaiying doesn't need to be in a hurry, things have happened, it's useless to be anxious, Huaiying has been in the dust all the way. Let's take a break! No matter what happens, don't change anything! ”
Li Hong said lightly with a gentle smile on his face.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw that Di Renjie was covered in dust, his eyes were black, and he had obviously not slept for several days.
"Yes, Your Highness!"
Di Renjie took a deep breath and found that he had just lost some of his temper.
After settling down, Di Renjie said slowly.
"Your Highness. Since the minister took over Li Zhongshu's case, he sent people to Li Zhongshu's mansion several times to ask for the criminal Chun Yu's family, but Li Zhongshu used the minister's lack of purpose as the reason. Refuse to hand over! ”
Li Hong's face remained unchanged, and he listened carefully to Di Renjie's narration.
In fact, he had expected this a long time ago, and Li Yifu probably would not hand it over. Otherwise, wouldn't he be convicted of his crimes?
What's more, it is reasonable for Li Yifu to do this, no matter what. He is still the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, and Wuzhi really can't search his mansion......
Therefore the minister went to the government hall again to ask for the will. Until today, the will has not come down, the minister is afraid that it will change later, so he immediately took people to the Li Mansion, but I didn't expect that this time Li Zhongshu did not stop again, but the minister searched the entire mansion, and could not find the location of the Chun Yu clan, not even a trace of the Chun Yu clan living in the Li Mansion! ”
Di Renjie's tone was a little heavy, obviously feeling a little powerless about it.
"Well, this matter has long been expected, we are preparing, Li Yifu will naturally not be idle, Huaiying continued!"
Li Hong said softly, his face still very calm.
If you can't find anyone alone, I'm afraid it won't make Di Renjie look like this, there must be something else going on.
Sure enough, Di Renjie's eyes froze, and the fists in his sleeve robe were secretly clenched, and he said in a deep voice.
"But when the minister returned to Dali Temple, he received a report that there was an inexplicable female prisoner on death row in the Criminal Department, and she had been dead for a long time.
Di Renjie's tone was a little angry, he didn't expect Li Yifu to do such a desperate thing!
Although Chun Yu had already committed homicide, being disposed of by Li Yifu without permission was a different thing from being executed by Dali Temple!
As the prime minister of one dynasty, how different is Li Yifu's behavior from Cao Kan's life? !
Li Hong also had a complicated expression, I have to say that Li Hong was also a little surprised by Li Yifu's decisiveness, he thought that Li Yifu would hide people, but he didn't expect him to kill people directly.
"That is to say, is the clue of the Chun Yu clan completely broken?"
Li Hong's face quickly regained his calmness and asked softly.
"Yes! Li Zhongshu found a beautiful woman out of nowhere, saying that it was his concubine, and the ministers interrogated him repeatedly, but the whole Li Mansion, including the concubine, was tight-lipped! ”
Di Renjie's tone was a little frustrated.
What he didn't understand was why Li Yifu was so well prepared in such a short period of time without revealing the slightest flaw.
If he hadn't known the truth in advance, I'm afraid Di Renjie would have thought that Li Yifu was innocent!
"Is that so......"
Li Hong's brows also furrowed, could it be that someone sent a message to Li Yifu?
Otherwise, why did the Li Mansion arrange it so well, and why did the Chun Yu clan appear so coincidentally, there was a smell of protests everywhere!
But now is not the time to think about that!
Chun Yu is in the Li Mansion, so it is basically impossible to find any clues from her, which Li Hong has long expected.
The reason why Di Renjie was ordered to look for her was just with a glimmer of hope!
After all, if the Chunyu clan falls into their hands, they will be able to live a few more days.
Since it was expected, Li Hong was naturally prepared, the key nodes of this case, one is Chun Yu's family, and the other is the Dali Temple Cheng Bi Justice who secretly released Chun Yu's family!
"Then Bi Zhengyi can be arranged now?"
Li Hong asked.
He believed that he could imagine this, and others would naturally be able to think of it, so he had already instructed Di Renjie to transfer Bi Zhengyi.
"Back to His Royal Highness, according to His Royal Highness's orders, it was announced that Bi Zhengyi is now in the prison of Dali Temple, but in fact he is in a house in Dali Temple, and the minister has sent heavy troops to guard it! There are no surprises! ”
At the mention of Bi Zhengyi, Di Renjie's face finally got a little better, and he was a little more confident in his words, and after a pause, Di Renjie added another sentence.
"In order to be afraid of espionage, the minister deliberately chose four mansions, the layout and the strength are exactly the same, and Bi Zhengyi is one of them!"
Because he may be arraigned at any time, Di Renjie did not keep Bi Zhengyi too far, but arranged it in this way, which should be able to ensure Bi Zhengyi's safety to the greatest extent.
However, Li Hong frowned slightly, and was about to speak, but found that Wang Fusheng hurriedly ran in and said in a low voice.
"Your Highness, Dali Temple Qing Zhang Wenqian asks to see you!"
