Chapter 399: The Truth of the Year
If nothing else, Wang Jie's head will be cut off entirely.
However, just as the sharp glaive blade of the halberd landed on Wang Jie's shoulder, and at the last moment, Wang Jie's whole person suddenly collapsed and shouted for mercy.
It was also Qi Yunhe's timely collection, when he just shouted the word 'Rao', Qi Yunhe controlled the halberd very well, and the sharp glaive blade stayed between Wang Jie's neck, only a millimeter difference.
Everyone broke out in a cold sweat, and Wang Ji was even more frightened to pee his pants, and sat on the ground tremblingly.
Li Canghai and Li Yu squeezed each other's eyes, and the two smiled tacitly.
"Demons! You are the devils! Wang Ji sat down on the ground, his eyes full of fear, and muttered in his mouth.
Even if they did, they didn't say that they would kill whoever they killed, or at least they would take their lives after torture to extract confessions.
He thought that what everyone in front of him was just scaring him, after all, he was an official of the imperial court, and they would be a little jealous.
However, what he didn't expect was that the other party didn't care about these at all, and really wanted to take his life!
One is the Ministry of Rites, the other is the Dali Temple, and the other is the descendants of the current royal family, who of these three is not a high-ranking person?
Only then did Wang Ji realize that he had overestimated himself.
Together, these three people can be said to be black even if they are white, and more importantly, between themselves and them, the emperor will definitely believe them.
Between life and persistence, Wang Fei chose the former.
Although his power was given by Li Linfu, he also did a lot of things for him, not to mention that he was dead. Isn't it ridiculous to die for a dead man?
Today's Wang Jie. All I think about is staying alive, and the rest. How can you care?
"Take him away, put him in prison, and keep him under strict guard!" Li Canghai saw that Wang Ji had lost the fighting spirit to resist, and his psychological defense line had collapsed, so he nodded secretly and commanded casually.
Several Jinwuwei soldiers immediately tied up the depressed Wang Jie, and then the whole team left the deserted mansion.
"Master Li, you really frightened the old man. The old man thought you were really going to kill Wang Jie! Walking on the road, Cui Lian still has some palpitations in retrospect.
Li Canghai smiled and said, "Master Cui thinks I will really kill Wang Jie?" ”
Cui Lian was stunned for a moment and said, "Don't you want to kill him?" ”
"Master Cui, don't you see that this is what we did on purpose?" Li Yu interjected excitedly.
"Oh? Deliberately? The old man was puzzled. Cui Jian shook his head and said.
Li Yu laughed and said: "Actually, when Wang Ji refused to speak, Mr. secretly glanced at me, at first I didn't understand what Mr. meant, but then I had a conversation with Mr. But it made me understand. The gentleman's intention is to create some pressure on Wang Jie, so that he can know that he is dispensable to us, so that he will care about his own life. ”
He let out a long sigh of relief. Excitedly, he continued: "Wang Ji naturally didn't believe what we said at first, he was very confident that we wouldn't kill him, but when Yunhe almost killed him with his halberd. He realized that he was not as important as he thought, and then he went around the ghost gate. His inner insistence will fall into collapse. ”
"Isn't the prince afraid, in case Qi Yunhe misses. Did you really kill Wang Jie? Cui asked stunned.
Li Yu shook the folding fan and said proudly: "This king is very confident in Yunhe's skills, and with his skills, he can master it just right." Facts have proved that the king did not guess wrong, and when Wang Ji was at stake, he chose to save his life at the most important point. ”
"I see." Cui Jian sighed, and at the same time threw himself to the ground in his heart for the five bodies that admired the bold and careful two.
"It's all in the mastery of the gentleman!" Li Yu is extremely admirable.
Li Canghai smiled indifferently and said: "This time I was able to defeat Wang Jie's heart, thanks to the prince and Steward Qi, if it wasn't for the prince who guessed what I meant in time, Steward Qi has superb martial arts, and Wang Jie's bone is really easy to gnaw." ”
"Mr. is overrated, this is all Mr. teaching...... Ha ha! Being able to personally participate in the case and help Li Canghai capture Wang Ji in one fell swoop, Li Yu felt very proud, and even walked a little lightly.
"Only Master Li can use such methods so calmly, if it were someone else, Wang Ji would have already been in a different place." Cui Chuan said in surprise.
Li Canghai said lightly: "To deal with the wicked, we must use a more vicious method than the wicked, which is called treating others in the way of others." Wang Ji acted for the tiger and did all kinds of evil things, and he had to bear the punishment of the laws of the Tang Dynasty, not personal anger. ”
Cui Lian was stunned for a moment, he pondered the meaning of this sentence, and his face suddenly became solemn.
He bowed deeply to Li Canghai and said seriously: "Master Li is young, but he is so persistent in the laws and regulations of the Tang Dynasty, it is really admirable, please accept the old man's worship!" ”
Li Canghai hurriedly helped him up and said, "Master Cui, you are a senior, and the younger generation can't afford it!" ”
Cui Jian didn't care at all, he said with tears in his eyes: "Master Li, if there are a few more loyal ministers like you in this Tang Dynasty, why did it fall to such a point now?" ”
When Li Canghai and Li Yu heard this, their hearts suddenly became much heavier.
Datang has been in turmoil, this is an indisputable fact, but what is the use of this?
The emperor is greedy for pleasure all day long, the government is controlled by traitorous ministers, loyal ministers and good generals are either persecuted to death, or degraded and exiled, and there are still a few people in the court who dare to speak out?
"Master Cui, no matter what, there are still many loyal people in Datang, and it has not yet reached the point of no return." Li Canghai thought about it and said with relief.
"I hope that God will bless Datang, sweep away the haze as soon as possible, and spread the foundation for all generations!" Cui Lian looked up to the sky and sighed.
Li Canghai opened his mouth, he wanted to tell Cui Lian what would happen next, but before this kind of thing happened, who would believe it?
With a long sigh, Li Canghai shook his head, cheering up his spirits. said: "Lord Cui, the most important thing at the moment is to interrogate Wang Ji and Luo Xizao. The tumors of Datang must be removed one by one. ”
Cui Lian sighed and nodded, "It's so far." I can only take one step at a time. ”
Li Yu suddenly asked, "Sir, when did you catch Luo Xizao?" ”
"I don't know if I have caught Luo Xizao, I left this matter to the Ministry of Shangshu, I just hope to catch him." Li Canghai said with a smile.
Li Yu blinked his eyes and said in surprise: "So, what you said before are all lying to Wang Xuan?" ”
"And that's not all. At least I've sent someone to get the evidence, but as for Roshizao, I don't know if I've caught it. Li Canghai said.
"Sir. You're treacherous! Li Yu suddenly sighed: "If Wang Jiao knows the truth, I really don't know if he will die headlong." ”
Li Canghai shrugged his shoulders casually, and he suddenly asked, "Lord Wang, how did you go to the Qin family's former residence?" ”
Li Canghai was very curious, and when he had arranged everything and waited for Wang Ji to drill in, Li Yu and Qi Yunhe appeared in the Qin Mansion.
At that time, it was getting late, in order to prevent the grass from startling the snakes. He stopped the two of them, but didn't have time to ask.
"I heard that my husband recently investigated the matter of Qin Fu's collaboration with the enemy and treason more than ten years ago, and I also want to do my part. So he went to Qin's house with Yunhe, wanting to see if he could find some clues. Speaking of this, Li Yu suddenly pursed his lips. said: "Who knew that when I entered the house, I saw many graves. Bad luck. What a bad luck! Sir, who are buried in those mounds? ”
"The old man of the Qin family!" Li Canghai said deeply.
"People from the Qin family?" Li Yu was stunned for a moment. He thought back to the mounds and felt his scalp tingle.
"There are two days left until the deadline, and before that, we must find out what happened back then." Li Canghai said firmly.
Everyone nodded and immediately quickened their pace.
Luoyang Prison, the No. 6 cell of Dizi, a man with a white face and a young beard and a fierce light in his eyes roared loudly inside.
"Someone! Let me out! I am an official of the court! How dare you arrest me? Outrageous! ”
"What about people? Come on! This official is the Taishou of Shi'an County, you are so bold, you still don't let this official out? ”
"Someone...... Come on! ”
……
At the end of the cell, Li Canghai held his hands behind his back, followed by Li Yu, Cui Jian and others, and next to him stood the secretary of the ministry.
"Lord Gao, is he Luo Xizao?" Li Canghai looked at the place where the cell was located and asked curiously.
Gao Luochuan, the secretary of the ministry, nodded and said, "Yes, he is Luo Xizao." When we went to his house, we found that he was not at home, and later we learned that he had gone to the Qinglou, and we caught him in the Qinglou. Master Li, when are you going to interrogate him? ”
Li Canghai thought for a while, and said lightly: "Detain him for two days first, and during this period, you only need to bring him food, and no one is allowed to talk to him." ”
"Why is that?" The crowd was a little puzzled.
Li Canghai did not answer, but walked towards the Xuanzi cell by himself.
Although everyone was confused, after seeing Li Canghai's power, they were already in awe of him, so everyone didn't feel inappropriate, and they followed him one after another.
The Xuanzi cell is located on the third basement floor of Luoyang Prison, and Wang Ji is locked in the third cell.
Everyone opened the cell and followed Li Canghai in, and Wang Ji sat on the ground paralyzed, as if he was much older.
"Wang Jie? Master Cui, why is he here? The official Shangshu was a little surprised, and he asked Cui Jian in a low voice.
Cui Jian shushed at him, pointed at Li Canghai slightly, and the official Shangshu nodded suddenly, and then kept silent.
"Wang Jie, now the people standing in front of you are all people you are familiar with, can you say it?" Li Canghai said lightly.
Wang Fei looked at everyone and said with a wry smile: "I, Wang Jie, am smart for a lifetime, I didn't expect it to be in your hands." In that case, what do you want to know, just ask! I have only one request, spare my life. ”
Li Canghai nodded and said, "There are two scholars of the official and the rite to testify, I promise you, as long as you honestly confess everything, I will ask the Holy God for mercy to save you from death." ”
Wang Ji smiled bitterly, he sighed, and said, "Now that I have become a prisoner, what else do I dare to hide?" ”
"First question, why did you steal the evidence that Feng and Zhao said?" Li Canghai asked.
"For, the evidence they spoke of, would reveal a long-forgotten past, and would be extremely detrimental to me, and I had to risk stealing it." Wang Ji said.
"This old incident, but the fourteenth year of Qin's revenge on the treason of the enemy?"
Wang Ji smiled bitterly and said, "Why do you want to ask knowingly? Yes, it's this case. ”
"So, what Feng and Zhao said is true? When they let the Tibetan army into the city and identify Qin Fu, they were all coerced by you? Li Canghai then asked.
Wang Ji nodded and said, "They were indeed coerced, but these have nothing to do with me, they are all done by Luo Xizao. Even Li Linfu's plan to deal with Qin Fu was also thought up by Luo Xizao. ”
"Why did Li Linfu deal with Qin Fu? How is it implemented? Li Canghai frowned and asked.
"Li Linfu dealt with Qin Fu, that was because he offended Li Linfu, Li Linfu has always been narrow-minded and will be revenged, but Qin Fu has repeatedly opposed him, how can he give up?" Wang Ji lowered his head, sighed gloomily, and said, "As for how it was implemented, the adults have been checking for so long, but they haven't found anything?" ”
Li Canghai smiled indifferently and said, "If this official is not mistaken, it is actually Li Linfu who secretly colluded with Tibet, right?" first tried to get Qin Fu to leave the border pass, and then took the opportunity to let Tibet send troops, and at the same time publicized Qin Fu's collaboration with the enemy in the court. After the news of the border war, it attracted the attention of the saint, so that Qin Fu was immediately arrested. But Qin Fu is a great general, and the Holy Lord will definitely order the three law divisions to try together. At this time, the so-called human and physical evidence is needed to prove his guilt, but you didn't expect that the three legal divisions took this matter very seriously, they deliberately delayed the trial time, and wanted to find out the truth, but Li Linfu got the confession edict written by Qin Fu who was deceived. As a result, the closing statement was forged and submitted to the Imperial Inspection. Needless to say, the saint was furious and beheaded the Qin family. ”
After hearing this, everyone was surprised, no one thought that the truth would be like this!
Wang Jie's eyes were open, and there was an unbelievable light in his eyes, and after a long while, he looked up to the sky and sighed: "In just a few days, you can investigate what happened fourteen years ago so clearly, you are indeed amazing!" ”
"What is your role in this?" Li Canghai asked in a deep voice.
"I am in charge of liaising with Tibetan Zampu, who has always regarded Qin Fu as a great problem, and in this regard, Li Linfu and Tibet have the same goal. Therefore, the Tibetan Zampu was extremely attentive to this plan, and when Qin Fu left the border pass, he immediately attacked Guazhou and other places to cooperate with Li Linfu's plan. Wang Ji said. (To be continued.) )
