Chapter 758: Final Confrontation

When the weak-hearted British prince saw Lan Ting pacing a few steps closer to him, he couldn't help but subconsciously take a step back, only to suddenly realize that he must not show his flaws, and he wanted to stand up like a seal.

"When I took over the murder case of Fan Er, when I saw Fan Er's body, I only felt that I touched another murder case in my memory, I thought about it carefully, and suddenly realized that I had heard Shi Tuiguan talk about the case of the abuse and murder of the servant girl by the prince of the world, and the scars on Fan Er's body were exactly the same as those victimized servants in the British government, which is really too much of a coincidence."

"This, is this the real evidence of Zhao Duyu?"

Lan Ting turned around and faced Emperor Hongfu: "Your Majesty, I want to come to His Royal Highness Zong Zhengqing King Qing has already interrogated Cheng Yu's confession, please ask the emperor to summon Zong Zhengqing to the palace to ask what is going on." ”

It turned out that when Emperor Hongfu summoned all the ministers to argue in the main hall of the Qianqing Palace, he had already agreed to the proposal of the prince and Lan Ting, and asked Zong Zhengqing to personally try Cheng Min's son Cheng Yu.

King Qing is the uncle of Emperor Hongfu, the younger brother of the first emperor's mother, but unlike the first emperor, King Qing is a vice upright and fair temperament, and he did not approve of the absurd idea that the first emperor wanted to abolish the prince because of the favor of the second concubine, so since Emperor Hongfu succeeded to the throne, he trusted this uncle very much and gave him the position of Zong Zhengqing.

Of course, Cheng Min didn't dare to question that King Qing would let the prince instigate him to marry him.

King Qing went to the palace and directly said the result: "Cheng Yu has already confessed after questioning, and he has tortured and killed many servants and maids in the Wei State Mansion, and then it is even worse than taking the deceased Guo Deli to the British Mansion to abuse him. ”

Cheng Min had a roar in his head, and hurriedly shouted: "Please let the emperor know clearly, the dog has long been confused because of hysteria, and the dog's confession must not be taken ......seriously."

"Cheng Shizi, are you suspecting that the old man is old and mediocre, do you think the old man can't tell whether Ling Lang is crazy or sober? When Ling Lang was interrogated today, he was not mad, Ling Lang didn't even dare to look directly at Guo Deli's body, although Guo Deli had been dead for a while, but Zhao Duyu had already confessed to put the ice kiln to save his body, so the scars on the corpse were still retained, and the face was still vaguely recognizable, although Ling Lang would abuse others when he was anestic, but when he was sober, he didn't dare to face his crimes, and he could even call Guo Deli's name and surname, how could this be called sanity? ”

Cheng Min was speechless.

King Qing continued: "According to Cheng Yu's confession, he knew that he had a disease since he was a child, and he developed mania soon after returning to the capital, but at that time he had been relying on self-injury to relieve mania, and then Cheng Min secretly sought medical treatment for him, but he was worried that others would know about Cheng Yu's condition, so he took Cheng Yu to the Wei State Mansion, and asked Wei Guogong to secretly seek medical treatment for Cheng Yu to treat hysteria. ”

"Masked?" Emperor Hongfu asked.

"Yes, Cheng Yu is indeed called a mask, I also asked carefully, Cheng Yu explained that Langzhong was wearing an iron mask, only showing his eyes and lips, and he did not distinguish his true face. said that it was the person in Lang Zhong but did not prescribe a prescription for Cheng Yu's pulse, only talked patiently with Cheng Yu, and seemed to know Cheng Yu's mood when he was sick, the masked man told Cheng Yu that this was not a disease, but there were too many grievances in his heart, and he needed to vent it, and the masked man personally demonstrated how to destroy others, so that Cheng Yu also tried to vent his hatred in his heart according to his method, and Cheng Yu gradually took pleasure in destroying others.

But later, for some reason, Cheng Min forbade Cheng Yu to go to the Wei State Mansion, so whenever Cheng Yu was ill, he had to torture and kill the maids around him for venting, and until the crime was discovered by his mother-in-law, Cheng Min turned out to be

In order to prevent regeneration accidents, Cheng Min begged Wei Guogong to provide Guo Deli to Cheng Yu to abuse him, and the father and son simply treated living people as medicine!

Cheng Yu pointed out to the masked man, developed the quirk of knowing his name when he was sadistic, and tortured while calling people's names, so that the physical and mental pleasure and anger could be gradually eliminated, so Cheng Min once told Cheng Yu Guo Deli's name and surname, and also reminded Cheng Yu not to directly cause death, Guo Deli is not as fragile as a maid as a middle-aged man, try to use it a few times. ”

Speaking of Cheng Yu's evil deeds, it has long been not a secret to the nobles in Beijing, but because Mrs. Han was accused of Zongzi's murder, Cheng Min was not condemned by much public opinion, and King Qing reopened this old case at this time, and said that the real person who committed the murder was Cheng Min, and the four ministers were shocked after hearing about it, and Xu Jin couldn't help but reprimand: "It's just crazy!" ”

And Cheng Min also felt regretful at this time.

After Cheng Yu's crime was exposed, this son was of no use to him, not to mention that the eldest son Cheng Zhu finally got a son, Cheng Min no longer worried that there would be no successor but to pass the family business as his stepson, he thought about it more than once, and simply wiped out Cheng Yu and cut off future troubles.

Helplessly, Mrs. Han seemed to realize that her husband had such malice, and stared at Cheng Yu tightly, and Cheng Min was unwilling to turn against his wife, resulting in the loss of the help of the Yue family, and she had to take care of Mrs. Han, and finally failed to do it.

But since then, Cheng Yu has not been able to leave the hospital one step further.

Who would have thought that in the end, it was this rebel who brought him disaster!

Cheng Min could only argue at this time: "The emperor has a clear understanding, the minister's dog Cheng Yu is really a wicked obstacle, because the minister ordered him to be imprisoned in the courtyard, and forbidden him to commit the evil act of torture and murder again, this evil obstacle every time he is crazy, the minister ordered the servant to lock it on the pillar, for a long time, this evil son hated the minister to treat him so harshly, it must ...... It was in retaliation for the sake of revenge for the minister. ”

"Cheng Shizi, although Ling Lang has a reason to hate Yan's father, why does he hate Wei Guogong? And how did Ling Lang recognize Fan Er's pseudonym? Ling Lang even has the ability to predict the prophet, and he actually knows that in the palace today, I will accuse Cheng Shizi of being an accomplice of Wei Guogong. Lan Ting easily refuted Cheng Min's sophistry, leaving him speechless again, before he hurriedly said: "But I'm not sure, I am sure that Ling Lang will confide the truth after being interrogated by His Royal Highness King Qing, so I only use Ling Lang's confession as supporting evidence." ”

It means that he has other evidence in his hands.

Cheng Min's forehead finally oozed cold sweat.

"Cheng Shizi was originally scheduled to be the candidate for Wei Guogong to handle the murder case of the Fan family, and the evidence of Gao Qiong's murder is of course not accidental, because Sun Chongbao does not have the true ability to calculate fortune and fortune and communicate yin and yang, of course Wei Guogong will not choose Cheng Shizi to be responsible for this important task for Sun Chongbao, but ...... Fan Er's first master after selling himself as a slave, that is, Zhong Yan, a merchant of the Daimyo Mansion, originally obeyed Cheng Shizi's orders to raise dead soldiers for Cheng Shizi. ”

Lan Ting no longer waited for Cheng Min to refute this time, and continued: "Cheng Shizi had a good relationship with Wei many years ago, and he was already surrounded by Wei Guogong, in order to compete for merit, he has been committed to secretly storing dead soldiers for emergencies, Zhong Yan is Cheng Shizi's confidant, Fan Er, that is, Guo Deli is one of the dead soldiers secretly trained by Zhong Yan, and successfully infiltrated the Gao family and was reused by Gao Qiong's father and son, but after he returned to Kyoto, he couldn't help but secretly contact his brother Fan Da, which violated the rules, not only for Gao Qiong's father and son, but also for Cheng Shizi, But whether to execute Guo Deli,

Cheng Shizi had to listen to Wei Guogong, who did not directly order Guo Deli to be executed.

As for the reason, first, Guo Deli's identity as a dead soldier is destined to be exposed, and he can use it to blame others when the time is right, and it is a pity to simply execute him; Moreover, the masked man, like Ling Lang, has the same mentality of abusing others for pleasure, and often has this mentality, and the one who is more willing to abuse is the young and strong, which can satisfy the abuser more than the woman who abuses the weak and does not pass the wind.

Originally, I did not find out who the owner behind Zhong Yan was over the years, until the black bear injury case, let me pay attention to Sun Chongbao, report to His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness finally found out that the fire in Ruan Lin Town was man-made, but His Royal Highness did not startle the snake, this time there was finally a harvest, those dead soldiers returned to the Daimyo's Mansion after arson, and turned into Zhong Yan's servants, stewards, bookkeepers, hired workers, etc. ”

Whether it is Wei Guogong or Cheng Min, of course, it is impossible to leave traces so easily, and it is all caught by people along the vine, Lan Ting's words are half-truths and half-falses, and the fake part is that the credit for verifying the traces of these people is of course not in the prince's personal guards, but in the secret weapon undead Jiaoxing.

"Father, the son has ordered the Jinyi Guard to command Liang Shiqi to go to the Daimyo Mansion to arrest Zhong Yan and all the criminals, they have not only confessed to the crime, but are also imprisoned in the edict prison, and the father and the elders can be confirmed at any time." The prince, who had been silent for a long time, affirmed at this time.

Cheng Min's face was like ashes, and he was completely speechless.

Zheng Xiu was glanced at by Lan Ting, and smiled slightly: "Zhao Duyu is really a good wit, and he is a good drama of a thief shouting to catch a thief...... It's hard to argue, and jumping into the Yellow River can't clear the charge. ”

After speaking, he struck lightly on the palm of his palm with a wat board that was very improper, and sighed again: "Your Majesty, the minister is still the same sentence, the minister can die in ambush, but please believe that the Marquis of Jinghai is innocent, so even if the minister dies, he can't admit his guilt." ”

Bao Wenhan also immediately helped to charge: "Your Majesty, Zhao Duyu presents these evidences, which can only confirm that Cheng Min is indeed guilty, but it cannot confirm that Cheng Min, Huang Quanying, Sun Chongbao, Zhong Yan and others are all instructed by the Duke of Wei, let alone that Wenhou criminals collaborated with the enemy and committed treason!" As for Cheng Yu's confession, it seems that he was ordered by his father Cheng Min to falsify, intending to marry Wei Guogong! ”

"Wei Guogong and Bao Duyu accused him of conspiring with Cheng Shizi and acting in a play in front of the emperor to frame Zhongliang, isn't it ridiculous? How could Cheng Shizi use his life to live and die with the Duke of Wei, and let Zhao enjoy the benefits of a fisherman in vain? ”

"If the collusion and stakes between Zhao Duyu and Cheng Shizi can be seen through at a glance, of course they will not dare to stage a farce in front of the emperor in the main hall where a thief shouts to catch a thief and puts Zheng and Wen Hou to death, but since Zhao Duyu uses this to question, Zheng may as well analyze and analyze." Zheng Xiu's face was not afraid, and his forehead was also cool and sweatless, he paced until Lan Ting came to him, and he actually smiled slightly.

"The Marquis of Jinghai is in charge of Fujian coastal defense, holds the military power, and in the battle of the princes for the prince, he has not shown his sincerity to His Royal Highness the Prince, and because of his friendship with the four clans of Fujian for many years, I am afraid that it has already aroused the jealousy of the prince and Zhao Duyu, that is, the prince will one day inherit the unification, and the general who guards the coastal defense cannot be said to be replaced, so the safest way, is it the safest way to take advantage of this opportunity to trap the Marquis of Jinghai as the same party of the King of Linzi, and justifiably punish him to death, so that His Royal Highness the Prince can sit back and relax?"

Speaking of this, Zheng Xiu shook his head and sighed again.
