Judging from the testimonies collected by Lu Jitong, the people who were burned to death by the fire seem to be normal and have no abnormal behavior. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

But it also made him even more confused.

If what these people say is true, then there is only one possibility, Han Qu caught the wrong person!

According to his understanding of Han Qu, although Han Qu has not made much achievements, he is not a corrupt official.

What's more, Han Qu has a cowardly personality, and he carefully executes everything Li Canghai orders, and he doesn't dare to be careless.

Li Canghai didn't believe that Han Qu dared to arrest the people by mistake.

But if he hadn't arrested the people by mistake, what would have happened?

More and more mysteries appeared in Li Canghai's mind, and for some reason, Li Canghai suddenly smelled a hint of conspiracy.

Just as Li Canghai was pacing and pondering, a proclamator suddenly walked in with a few people.

"Where's Lord Li?" As soon as the proclaimer stepped into the threshold with one foot, he cried out with a loud voice.

"Li Canghai is here, I don't know what the adults are about?" Li Canghai greeted him and asked.

The announcer saluted Li Canghai and said, "Lord Li, there is a decree in the saint, I want you to enter the palace as soon as possible!" ”

"Minister, Li Canghai, the commander!" Li Canghai got up and asked the proclamator, "This lord, the Holy Lord let me enter the palace at this time, I don't know what is important?" ”

The proclamator was also polite to Li Canghai, and said: "The lower official is just ordered to pass the decree, as for what it is, the lower official has no way of knowing." However, before coming here, Gonggong Gao had instructed the lower officials to tell the adults, please be careful. ”

When Li Canghai heard this, he immediately frowned.

Colliers told him to be careful, which showed that things would be very bad for him.

"Lord Li, the Holy Lord is waiting for you, why don't we leave immediately?" When the proclamator saw him bow his head in contemplation, he spoke.

Li Canghai sighed, then nodded, and followed the proclamator out of Dali Temple and towards the palace.

Daming Palace, including Yuan Palace.

Li Longji sat on the dragon chair, and the civil and military officials stood bowed above the main hall.

When Li Canghai walked into the main hall, everyone's eyes stayed on him.

For some reason, Li Canghai always felt that everyone's eyes were very strange.

"Minister Li Canghai see Your Majesty!" Li Canghai saluted.

"Li Aiqing, please." Li Longji waved his hand and said lightly: "Li Aiqing, do you know why I called you to come?" ”

Li Canghai shook his head: "Forgive the minister for being stupid, the minister doesn't know." ”

Li Longji picked up a book of books in his hand, stared at him and said, "I have a book in my hand, saying that you abused your power and killed innocent people, can you plead guilty to this matter?" ”

When Li Canghai heard this, his brows suddenly furrowed.

"Your Majesty, where did this begin?"

"Guozhong, let's talk about it!" Li Longji waved his hand and said.

Yang Guozhong walked out of the court and said, "Yes, Your Majesty." The minister was handling official business in the Imperial History Observatory before, and overheard someone beating the drum and shouting grievances, so he asked the person who played the drum to be brought. The people who came were a few ordinary people, and the ministers told them that the Imperial History Observatory was the office of the inspectors of hundreds of officials, and if there were grievances, they could go to Chang'an Mansion or Dali Temple to complain. But they said that the person they were suing was a senior official of the imperial court, and they were afraid that Chang'an Mansion and Dali Temple would not be able to accept it. ”

Speaking of this, Yang Guozhong deliberately paused, turned to Li Canghai and said: "And the person who those people are complaining about is none other than Lord Li of Dali Temple." The statement said that in order to seek merit, Li Canghai colluded with Yin Hanqu of Chang'an Prefecture to kill the people in vain, resulting in the tragic death of more than 30 people. Just because the person involved in the case is Dali Siqing, the minister does not dare to make an arbitrary decision, so he came to uphold His Majesty and hope that His Majesty will ruling. ”

"Li Aiqing, should you tell me what is going on?" Li Longji touched his beard, stared at Li Canghai and asked.

Li Canghai glanced at Yang Guozhong, Yang Guozhong's face was solemn, with a sad and angry expression, and he gradually understood in his heart.

Dozens of people died tragically, this is the best opportunity to deal with him, how can Yang Guozhong waste it in vain?

Li Canghai's expression was calm, without the slightest panic, and said: "Back to Your Majesty, there is something else strange about this matter, and the details are so ......." ”

Then, Li Canghai told the murder of Bai Laohan and the poison in his body one by one.

After hearing this, everyone fell into surprise.

Cui Jian walked out of the court and said, "Your Majesty, in this way, Lord Li is also for the stability of the people, not on purpose. ”

"Your Majesty! What Master Li said is just a one-sided statement, and whether it is credible still needs to be verified. Yang Guozhong took a step forward and said, "What's more, how can there be such a strange poison in this world?" As far as the minister knew, the people who died tragically were only suffering from disease, not poisoning. But because of this, he was imprisoned and burned to death. If Your Majesty does not believe it, the minister has brought the person who complained to him, and asked His Majesty to try it himself! ”

Li Longji nodded and said, "Bring the complainant to the temple." ”

After a while, a man dressed in a common person's costume came to the hall under the leadership of the guards, and knelt down on the ground in front of Li Longji: "Grass people Du Mei see my emperor, long live my emperor, long live long live." ”

"I ask you, what did you do when you sued Li Canghai, the secretary of Dali Temple?" Li Longji stroked his beard and asked.

Li Canghai recognized this person as the scholar who was at the scene of the fire, and his brows couldn't help frowning.

"Back to Your Majesty, the grass people sued Li Canghai, the secretary of Dali Temple, for merit, to kill innocent people, resulting in the tragic death of more than 30 innocent people! It was only because of his high position and power that the grass people had no choice but to go to the Yushitai to complain! Du Mei knelt on the ground and said loudly.

Li Longji took a sip of ginseng tea and said in a deep voice: "You said that Li Canghai innocently killed the people, is there any evidence?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, the grass people's brother is the one who was killed this time. According to Master Li, the reason why the grass people's brother was arrested was because the grass people's brother was poisoned. But the elder brother of the grass people only had leprosy and was not poisoned, which the husband of Jishitang can testify. But Master Li said that Brother Caomin was poisoned in his body, and forcibly imprisoned him, so that Brother Caomin was burned to death by the fire, and begged His Majesty to be the master of Caomin! ”

As he spoke, Du Mei began to choke.

"Li Canghai, what's going on?" Li Longji put down the teacup and asked with a frown.

"Your Majesty, this matter was explained to Lord Han Qu and Han Daren, as for whether the isolated person was poisoned, the minister is still investigating, if Your Majesty does not believe it, you can send Han Qu to come for questioning." Li Canghai bowed and said.

Li Longji frowned and said, "Hurry up and come to Xuanhan Qu." ”

After receiving the order, the proclaimer hurriedly left the palace.

For a while, the atmosphere in the main hall became a little strange.

No one spoke, not even Li Longji spoke, just kept tapping the armrest of the dragon chair with his fingers. (To be continued.) )
