Zhong Zhuyu has been hanging in his heart since he came back from Wanfu, and he woke up at dawn on the second day, waiting for the news to come back.

The weather was excellent on this day, and it was just dawn when it was cloudless, and there was not a trace of fog in sight.

Emperor Zhao put on the dragon robe under the service of Wang Jinde, and walked leisurely to the Zichen Palace.

His brother with a different heart has not moved recently, and the clues he is tracking have suddenly been interrupted, which is not good, because he is already preparing to make some moves when he goes to court today, and blow up a fish.

But I don't want to, maybe everyone thinks it's excellent to do things in this kind of weather, as soon as Zhao Difu entered the Zichen Palace, he felt that the atmosphere in the hall was different from usual.

"Ladies and gentlemen, do you have something to do?"

There was no one to talk to below, and a few important ministers standing in front looked at the tips of their shoes, and did not mean to speak, but a few people standing behind looked at each other, and after a while, one of them walked out with a fold.

"Wan Wenshi, the servant of the Ministry of Ministers, has a book."

Wanwenshi?

Emperor Zhao raised his eyebrows in surprise.

He remembered this courtier, one of the good embryos he wanted to cultivate.

So he straightened up, and his tone was a little solemn: "What did Wan Aiqing do?" ”

"The minister wants to be the king of Shenning!"

What he said was sonorous and powerful, and the unwitting officials in the court blew up the pot, and the rear stood far away from the emperor, and whispered out a few tone words, and the prime ministers standing at the front also glanced at each other, not understanding what Wan Wenshi, who had always been honest and upright, was going to do.

Emperor Zhao's expression was serious, his left hand was relaxed on the armrest of the dragon chair, and his index finger was regularly pointed at the armrest, thoughtful.

Why can't you get along with King Ning recently?

"What do you want from King Shenning?"

"The minister wants to participate in the king of Ning, Cao Kan, and form a party for personal gain."

Wan Wenshi said, and handed the fold in his hand to Wang Jinde, who walked down.

Ignoring people's lives and forming parties for personal gain?

Emperor Zhao took the recital presented by Wang Jinde, thinking about whether his brother was framed or if he really had something to hide from him.

There are not a few people who think very differently from Emperor Zhao, but most of them are in a wait-and-see state, and only one person jumped out impatiently after Wan Wenshi said the crime.

"Lord Wan, is there any misunderstanding in this? Everyone knows King Ning's character, but just because he has a good personality and wide popularity, he can't say that people form parties for personal gain, right? ”

Wan Wenshi turned his head to look at the person who spoke, it was Jingxue, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites.

"Lord Jing, don't be impatient, the lower officials have listed the evidence one by one in the fold, please ask the emperor to decide." Wan Wenshi is neither humble nor arrogant, and his face is sincere.

And Emperor Zhao, who was on the top, looked at this fold, the more he looked at it, the deeper his brows wrinkled, and it was not clear that others were far away, but Wang Jinde, who was close, seemed to have seen the anger on Emperor Zhao's head that had almost turned into substance, and he couldn't help but sweat in his heart.

"Wan Aiqing, listen to what you mean, there is evidence and human evidence?"

"Back to the emperor, the ministers are all ready."

Emperor Zhao was silent for a moment, put the fold together and put it in Wang Jinde's hand, took a deep breath and said, "I know, you will take the evidence after the next court, and return to the Taiyi Hall with me." ”

"Obey."

Wan Wenshi was deeply moved, and returned to the queue where he was stationed, his expression indifferent, and he couldn't see any emotion at all.

This can make the hearts of the people present itch, and they also want to know the consequences of this! Can't you say anything in the court?

But Emperor Zhao obviously didn't want them to eat this melon, so he asked again if there was anything else to do, and after getting the answer that there was no, he hurriedly asked Wang Jinde to announce his retirement from the dynasty.

When everyone was about to leave, he pointed to Jing Xue, who had the most anxious expression: "Since Jing Aiqing is so worried about King Ning, let's come together." ”

Jing Xue was stunned for a moment, and suddenly felt that the emperor's words were unclear, and he always felt that something was wrong.

But he didn't give him much time to think about it, so Wan Wenshi respectfully invited him to go to the Taiyi Hall together.

I don't know if it's his delusion, he seems to have seen a hint of pity flashing in Wan Wenshi's eyes.

It's a delusion, right?

It must be an illusion!

When the two of them walked to the Taiyi Palace, Jing Xue still felt that something was strange.

"Wan Aiqing, present the evidence."

Wan Wenshi looked at the little guy who was one step behind, who had a tray in his hand and a thick fold on it.

Wang Jinde took the tray and presented it to Emperor Zhao, and Wan Wenshi explained: "These folds are written on the timeline of King Ning's indiscriminate killing of innocents that can be traced back in recent years. ”

"The time of death of these people, marble has a record."

Emperor Zhao followed Wan Wenshi's words and opened the first book, which was written with the name of the victim, the time of the killing, the place of the killing, and the most important family life.

The first in line is the straight Jing Xue standing below.

"The families of these officials were killed... It's just a coincidence, and the murderer has already been caught and the case has been closed. Emperor Zhao looked at Wan Wenshi and asked him to continue.

"These murderers are nothing more than top-of-the-line." Wan Wenshi understood, pointed to the second fold and said: "This fold has written the number of soldiers and horses in King Ning in the open and in the dark over the years, and the emperor can send someone to verify it." ”

What is written in the third book is the time when King Ning's soldiers and horses disappeared, which is consistent with the time when the officials' families were killed. The ministers dared to guess that they were killed by King Ning after they were ordered to kill these people. ”

"Wait, what the hell are you talking about?" Jing Xue's brain buzzed when he heard the word "the official's family was killed", and then the more he listened, the more frightened he became, and he was anxious to ask for confirmation: "Are you saying that my family and friends all said that King Ning was killed?" ”

Wan Wenshi didn't answer him, just gave him a positive look.

Emperor Zhao also asked him to calm down a little, and after reading the third book on the side, he said in a deep voice: "This is just your speculation, there is no actual evidence." ”

Wan Wenshi said: "Back to the emperor, the ministers have witnesses." ”

"Oh?" Emperor Zhao stared at Wan Wenshi with a pair of eyes: "What about that person's witness, call him up." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, a voice full of energy came from outside the hall: "Grass people Xu Wenliang, see the emperor." ”

Hearing this name, Emperor Zhao's heart moved, and he looked towards the door, and the person who walked in was coarse and short, full of white hair, but the outline was still the outline of his memory.

"Imperial Doctor Xu?!"

Emperor Zhao was really surprised now, even though the Tai Hospital was full of talents, but for so many years, no one could leave him.

"The grass people are here." Xu Wenliang's expression was also a little loose when he saw the emperor.

This is where he took off, and it is also where he ended up alone and widowed all his life.

"I remember that you resigned from your position as a judge in the Tai Hospital because you missed your wife too much......"

"Thanks to the emperor. After so many years, the grass people were finally able to rehabilitate their wives. ”

Emperor Zhao's expression was complicated, whether it was before or after he ascended the throne, King Ning had always behaved very well, and he had never let him notice that he had different intentions, but now the human and material evidence is there......

"Imperial Physician Xu, tell me in detail."

Xu Wenliang received the order, so he told Emperor Zhao how he was heartbroken back then, and how he saved a subordinate of King Ning who was wiped out by chance.

In the end, this old man, who has never had any emotional ups and downs, is already full of tears.

Wan Wenshi took over the conversation in a timely manner: "Your Majesty, this fourth book of excerpts is a detailed record of how King Ning gave them 'charcoal in the snow'. ”

The ridicule he said, Jing Xue's face was already blue and white on the side, if it weren't for the scruples that he was still in the Taiyi Palace, he would have rushed to King Ning to fight.

Emperor Zhao opened the fold, and the officials written on it were either in high positions now, or "screws" in key and sensitive positions.

None of these excerpts wrote that King Ning was bad, but he listed what he did in an orderly manner, but Emperor Zhao saw the anger and accusations of the person who wrote the excerpts.

Emperor Zhao pinched his eyebrows: "I know, I will send someone to verify one by one whether there are any false exaggerations written on the folding." ”

He said to Wang Jinde next to him: "You are now planning to send the suspect King Ning to prison, waiting for the truth to be found." ”

"Whoa."
