Chapter 93: Who is your brother

The shopkeeper of Cui Yuzhai doesn't want anything now and just wants to live, but he is not sure if what Luo Fu said is true, after all, he didn't say that in front of the emperor today, if he changed his words, it would be bullying the king, and he couldn't afford this crime.

Luo Fu saw that he had been trembling, and his voice became softer and softer: "This palace knows that you are also forced, and you are forced to do it out of desperation, what you say today can be ignored by this palace, but you must tell me everything you know, there will be this palace tomorrow, as long as you tell the truth, I will definitely ask my father to spare your life." ”

"I ......" He was now a frightened bird, looking around vigilantly, with panic in his eyes: "Wang Er...... Is that really what Wang Er said? ”

Luo Fu asked people to carry Wang Er over, the court envoy sighed softly, listened to Luo Fu's instructions, waved his hand and said, "Go quickly!" What are you still doing in a daze? ”

When the two jailers heard this, they brought in a person with blurred flesh and blood from the outside, it was really blurred flesh and blood, and he couldn't see his face clearly, and the clothes on his body had long been stained with blood and couldn't see the original color, and the one who was carried over didn't look like a person, but like a puddle of flesh and mud.

The puddle of "flesh mud" raised its trembling hands and slammed towards the cell door, little by little, as if to get through the crack in the iron door.

The shopkeeper of Cui Yuzhai was so frightened that he screamed, bent his legs and stepped back, pointing to the puddle of "meat mud" and said in a trembling voice: "This ...... This is...... Is it the second king? ”

Luo Fu asked people to carry the "second king" down again, and sighed regretfully: "I also persuaded him before, but he didn't listen, and the cool officials of the court bureau have always been known for their cruelty, so why bother to tell the truth only if they have to be beaten?" He's almost gone, but you still have a chance, whether you want to tell the truth now or you want to be like him, you choose. ”

The person was beaten no longer human, and the shopkeeper of Cui Yuzhai had not yet come to his senses, although the person had been carried away, he seemed to be able to see him spread on the ground like a puddle of meat, if he had become like that......

He didn't dare to think about it, so he knelt down in front of Luo Shi, and asked her as if he was grasping the last straw: "Can you really help me?" As long as you don't kill me, I'm ...... I'll say everything! ”

The matter is already halfway through, and Luo Fu is kind and persuasive: "This palace does what it says, but you have to be absolutely unreserved!" ”

Sun Ting's envoy from the Imperial Court Bureau gave Luo Fu enough time to interrogate the shopkeeper of Cui Yuzhai, and when the time came, he pinched a little bit to let people in and invite Luo Fu out.

Things are going well, Luo Fu came out soon, Sun Tingzhi made a bitter face, and said with a respectful hand: "Your Highness, the ministers owe you all paid off, today's matter, I hope you must abide by the agreement to keep it confidential for the ministers, otherwise, ...... If His Majesty knew about it, the minister would really not be able to eat and leave. ”

What Sun Ting's envoy owed to Luo Fu was referring to the death of Shang Gong in the Shang Yi Bureau last time, and that time he didn't stop Xue Rang from killing Shang Gong under his nose, so this time he secretly let Luo Fu in to atone for his previous sins.

Luo Shi couldn't bear to look at the flesh and blood that was beaten beside him, and he was even carried over by the person who was pretending to be Wang Er, so he turned his face and reassured: "This palace doesn't want people to know that this palace has been here even more than you." ”

After taking two steps and turning back, I wanted to say something but stopped talking, and finally left without saying anything.

Did she want to ask the court inquisitors that they had always been so cruel? But I've seen it with my own eyes, and it's redundant to ask like this, besides, the reputation of the court bureau has always been like this, there is a dead man's prison in the land of the living, and sometimes just moving out of the court is enough to bluff people.

Luo Fu didn't sleep all night after he went back, early the next morning, there was an extra Luo Zhen among the people on trial, he was involved and he was confused, he was busy with his gambling house for the past few days, Luo Rui's birthday He didn't even show his face, how did he become a suspect in the murder of Luo Rui?

After two days and nights of sleepless and trembling treatment, Luo Rui's condition has improved, although the fever has not subsided, but the pustules on his body have disappeared a lot, and there is no need to worry about his life.

Luo Fu asked the emperor to ask for an interrogation of the shopkeeper of Cui Yuzhai first, Luo Zhen and Xue Rang didn't understand what medicine was sold in her gourd, but they would be tried sooner or later anyway, so they had no objections.

The shopkeeper of Cui Yuzhai was brought up, and Luo Shi asked him the same question as yesterday, asking him if he was lying, and whether he had been to the treasury.

This time, the shopkeeper's rhetoric completely changed, saying that he didn't know Wang Er at all, and that it was Luo Zhen who instructed him to slander Luo Fu had been to the treasury, but in fact, Luo Fu had never been to the treasury at all.

Luo Xu's eyes widened instantly, and he couldn't care about the dignity of the prince and the steady image that he had been working hard in front of the emperor at this time, so he kicked people down with a kick: "You are talking nonsense!" You didn't say that in front of His Majesty yesterday, you should know very well what the crime of bullying is, and you haven't recruited it from the truth! ”

The shopkeeper of Cui Yuzhai shrank on the ground, and even cried, his eyes looked at Luo Fu, and begged for mercy repeatedly: "What the grass people said is true, I dare not have half a lie, yesterday ...... Yesterday, the grass people just didn't dare to tell the truth, but after thinking about it for a night, I felt that I should tell the truth, Your Majesty! The grass people guarantee that what they said this time is absolutely true! Don't dare to hide any more words! ”

Luo Zhen stopped in front of him and bowed to the emperor: "Father, what this person said is inconsistent, full of nonsense, absolutely untrustworthy, father!" I also hope that my father will check clearly! ”

Luo Fu stepped forward: "What is the imperial brother anxious about, let him finish his words first, isn't there another Wang Er?" After a while, call Wang Er to confront each other, and it will be clear! ”

He has now completely offended Luo Xu, and if he wants to live, the only life-saving straw is Luo Fu, so he explained even harder: "That Wang Er, the grass people really don't know him, and they said yesterday that they knew him...... In fact, it is also instructed by others, Cui Yuzhai has never had any involvement with Yaxing, and there is word of mouth between guests and guests, if Your Majesty does not believe it, you can send someone to inquire, if the grass people have something to hide, let ...... Let the grass people die without a place to be buried! ”

Xue Rang also stood up at this time and said: "Your Majesty, yesterday someone under the minister caught the assassin who chased and killed Wang Er, according to him, he was a guard on the Great Prince's Mansion, and the sword in his hand was also engraved with the pattern of the Great Prince's Mansion. ”

Luo Zhen looked at Xue Rang angrily, and preemptively attacked: "It's okay that General Xue didn't mention it, I remembered it when you mentioned it, a few days ago, a few guards in the house were kicked out by me for not following the rules, and someone reminded me that I was afraid that these people who were driven out would take revenge in the future if they held a grudge, and I was worried about it, General Xue caught the evidence of the assassination of the guards in my house, is this too coincidental?" ”

Xue Rang shook his sleeves: "Yes or no, just call someone up to Wang Er to recognize it." ”

There should be a result in this matter, and the emperor didn't want to continue to consume it like this, so he asked Wang Er to bring him up with the guard.

The guards were quite loyal to Luo Chen, and they didn't admit that Luo Zhen had let him assassinate Wang Er, but Wang Er was almost killed before, and he was very familiar with the face of this assassin, and it could even be said that he was deeply imprinted in his heart, he said that he had not been assassinated by a human attack, but when he saw the person who almost killed him, he couldn't help but be afraid, and even wanted to escape, and his expression already said it all.

The shopkeeper of Cui Yuzhai knew that he had been deceived by Luo Fu when he saw the living and intact Wang Er, but now it was too late to say anything, so he said that what he said was true.

Seeing that the general trend had gone, Luo Zhen struggled in vain, pulled out the sword of the guard on the side and rushed forward to give a sword to his own guard who was captured by Xue Rang, but the poor guard was about to say that Li Bu was the one who really betrayed him, but before he could say anything, he was killed by Luo Chen's sword.

The emperor originally gave Luo Zhen a lot of expectations, among these sons, he was the only one who was reliable and reassuring, who knew that this only son who was quite worry-free would actually do such a thing.

The emperor was very disappointed in him, and the evidence was conclusive, and he didn't bother to listen to him defend himself, and because he drew a sword and killed people in his palace, he didn't even have the last bit of mercy for him, so he was escorted down, dismissed from all his positions, imprisoned in the palace of the great prince, and was not allowed to enter the palace without an edict, and sentenced to fifty boards.

This result was not satisfactory to Xue Rang, but Luo Rui did not have to worry about his life after all, and he couldn't play for the emperor to kill his son, no matter how dissatisfied he was, he had to take into account the emperor's face.

As for Wang Er and the shopkeeper of Cui Yuzhai, the emperor meant to kill them, but Luo Fu felt that these two people were not guilty to death, and like Luo Xu, one person hit fifty boards and drove out of the capital, and he was never allowed to enter the palace.

These two people obeyed Luo Zhen's will and deliberately slandered Luo Fu, as for how to deal with it, of course, Luo Fu also had the final say, and the emperor was disappointed and sad, because of one

The crown prince is like this, fratricidal, this is not what the emperor wants to see, maybe it's time to think about the heir to the crown prince's throne.

It's just that Luo Zhen didn't know in the end that it was Li Bu's calculations that caused him to become like this, yesterday Li Bu gave him an idea to deny that the guard had already been driven out of the house, and he was still holding on to it as a life-saving straw.

Luo Fu spent this time without danger, the little eunuch who was saved from Xue Rang's hands last time also made a bowl of noodles for her, a little child, I didn't expect there to be such a craft, Luo Fu couldn't help but praise again and again, the little eunuch said embarrassedly: "Actually, these are all taught to me by my brother, he knows more than me." ”

Last time, I heard him shouting for his brother to help, and Luo Fu was curious: "Who is your brother?" But also in the palace? ”

The little eunuch nodded, knelt in front of her and pleaded: "Your Highness, my brother's cooking is delicious and very capable, his name is Zhou Feng, can you let him also come to the Princess Pavilion to serve His Highness?" ”
