Chapter 358: Asking for Life for the People
Jun Qianchen took Leng Feng and Leng Xiong and other entourages and went directly to Lord Wang's house.
"The Seven Princes are coming, and the lower officials are not welcome!" He didn't expect Jun Qianchen to come over, he wasn't prepared at all, and there was still a trace of doubt on his face.
There was no friendship between him and Jun Qianchen, and now that he suddenly came over, Lord Wang was very uneasy.
After all, although he is still a prince, he no longer cares about anything related to court politics.
Today's Jun Qianchen is an empty shelf with the name of a prince but no real power.
Many people in the court were discussing this matter in private, but when they met Jun Qianchen, they were still very respectful to him......
"Lord Wang doesn't need to be a guest, today I came here on my father's order to search your mansion!" Jun Qianchen's dark eyes stared at him and said.
"I don't know what the lower official did wrong?" His face was full of astonishment, and there was a hint of panic in his eyes.
"Whether Lord Wang has done anything wrong or not, after I search it, I will naturally find out!" Jun Qianchen came suddenly, but she didn't want her to be prepared in the slightest.
"Your Majesty has a clear conscience, please search at will Your Highness!" He followed behind Jun Qianchen with no different face.
Jun Qianchen saw that he really didn't seem to know anything about that matter, so he had a plan in his heart.
A moment later, Jun Qianchen found the man in black who had assassinated Bai Linxia before in Lord Wang's mansion.
At this time, he was wearing the clothes of a subordinate and was doing things in the backyard.
"What a King with a clear conscience!" Jun Qianchen thought that this matter had nothing to do with him, who knew that those murders were really hidden in his mansion.
So, Jun Qianchen immediately ordered someone to control Lord Wang and the killer disguised as a subordinate, and then took them to the flower hall for interrogation.
"Your Royal Highness, the lower official is really wronged, this person is indeed a small servant in the lower official's mansion, and when the lower official saw that he knew martial arts, he left him at home as a nurse!" Lord Wang explained anxiously.
He really didn't know how the nursing home in his home could become the killer who assassinated Bai Linxia.
"You really don't know?" The man was found in his mansion, and how could Lord Wang, as the owner of the mansion, not know anything about it?
"Xia Guan swore to the heavens that if there was half a lie, he would be sentenced to death, and after death, he would lay down eighteen layers of hell and never be reborn!" Lord Wang knelt on the ground, his eyes clear.
"I will continue to investigate this matter, if you dare to deceive me, what the consequences will be, you know it!" Jun Qianchen didn't seem to be lying when he saw him.
"Xia Guan and the Seventh Imperial Concubine have no grievances, how could Xia Guan risk such a thing!" Lord Wang's ability is average, but he is not a corrupt official.
Although he has a mediocre temperament, he is down-to-earth and willing to work, and he has always been meticulous in what the emperor orders, and he will never be opportunistic.
The emperor took a fancy to this, so he let him stay in Qidu as a fourth-grade official and did not release him.
Lord Wang is suitable for defending the city, and he can't play to his advantage when he goes to the place......
"Who instructed you to assassinate Xia'er?" Jun Qianchen saw that he couldn't ask the slightest clue from Lord Wang's mouth, so he set his eyes on the subordinate.
After the other party glanced at Jun Qianchen, he knelt on the ground without saying a word.
Jun Qianchen saw that he didn't want to say, so he ordered someone to take him away.
Subsequently, Jun Qianchen returned to the palace to resume his life.
"How can this be reasonable, this Wang Wanhai has simply betrayed my trust!" The emperor didn't expect that the killer was really in his mansion, but he didn't find out, and he kept shouting injustice.
"Father, Erchen feels that there may be something else hidden in this matter, Erchen has interrogated Lord Wang before, and he really doesn't seem to know anything about it!" Jun Qianchen didn't want innocent people to suffer.
He just wants to catch the real mastermind, if Lord Wang is indeed framed, wouldn't it be a shameful escape for the real murderer.
If the other party attacks Bai Linxia again in the future, they can't guard against it.
Jun Qianchen didn't want such a thing to happen, so he kept persuading the emperor to hide the matter for the time being.
In any case, after he finds out the evidence, he will deal with Lord Wang.
"Since you think Wang Wanhai is innocent, I will hand over this matter to you to investigate!" The emperor trusted his abilities, so he agreed to his request.
In fact, the emperor also wants to find out who really wants to harm Bai Linxia, if Lord Wang really has nothing to do with this matter, he will be in the hands of the other party if he does this.
After Jun Qianchen gave the order, he kept sending people to investigate the matter.
Although the emperor agreed to him, he only gave him a month to investigate the matter.
He can't tolerate others doing things right under his nose......
A month is enough time for Jun Qianchen.
At the moment, he didn't have any clues in his hands, so Jun Qianchen simply started with Lord Wang, after all, it was impossible for the other party to frame him for no reason......
His subordinates carefully checked Lord Wang's family and background.
After Lord Wang was loyal, three generations of his family were loyal to the court, and they never did it behind their backs, sorry for the court, and they have always been loyal to the emperor.
Jun Qianchen not only checked Lord Wang's father, but even found out his usual style of doing things clearly.
He acted fairly, although he was a little more modest, but he was also a real clean official.
Such a person is not welcomed in the court.
Although the emperor has a good attitude towards him, he is too upright, so he has been stagnant in his current position.
However, Lord Wang did not feel resentment and has been working diligently for the imperial court.
Jun Qianchen felt that with his character, he should not send someone to assassinate Bai Linxia, and even hide the killer in his own mansion, isn't this tantamount to telling everyone that he can't get along with the royal family sincerely.
Bai Linxia is now the person the emperor wants to protect, unless he eats the bear's heart and leopard gall, he dares to kill her.
"Do you think it's not Lord Wang who sent someone to assassinate me?" Bai Linxia frowned.
"Well, he is an upright person and will never do anything to hurt the innocent, not to mention that you don't know him, he has no motive to harm you!" This is also the reason why Jun Qianchen asked the emperor to temporarily suppress this matter.
He didn't want to wronged someone who had nothing to do with it.
After all, what he was looking for was the murderer who hurt Bai Linxia.
"In that case, we might as well check the people who have had a holiday with Lord Wang!" Bai Linxia quickly changed his mind.
The killer did enter Lord Wang's mansion that day, and if he didn't do it, then it must have been a person who had something to do with him, secretly plotting.
The people in his house are hiding the killer, and no one knows about it yet.
However, the mastermind behind the scenes bothered to arrange all this, and there must have been a purpose.
Bai Linxia felt that the other party didn't seem to want his own life, but the crux of everything was on Lord Wang.
On that day, when those killers attacked her, they deliberately showed mercy, as well as the coachman.
If they want to kill themselves, they can leave the palace gate and do it, after all, they have no power to restrain the chicken, if they directly send someone who knows martial arts, pretending to be a coachman, she is afraid that she will die a long time ago.
The truth was confusing, and Bai Linxia and Jun Qianchen also felt strange in their hearts.
However, since the matter involves Lord Wang, the matter must be investigated......
"I'll find someone to investigate this immediately!" Jun Qianchen ignored this point before.
"Be careful!" Bai Linxia's eyes were full of worry.
"The other party's target is not me, I won't be fine, you stay in the palace with peace of mind, no matter what happens, don't go out easily!" Jun Qianchen admonished.
"Don't worry, without your company, I will never go out alone this time!" Bai Linxia said with a smile.
Subsequently, Jun Qianchen asked people to investigate the situation in Qidu and several courtiers who disagreed with Lord Wang's politics.
The people in the court have always been intrigued for their own interests.
Jun Qianchen wanted to find clues from it......
He checked for a few days and found that several ministers who disagreed with Lord Wang and had conflicts with him did not have any suspicious actions recently.
However, he found other evidence, which could confirm that this matter really had nothing to do with Lord Wang, and that he was innocent.
For this reason, Jun Qianchen and Bai Linxia were very happy, after all, they really didn't want to wronged the innocent.
What's more, Lord Wang is a good official who asks for the people's life, although he is stubborn and pedantic, but the court needs such an official.
After Bai Linxia and Jun Qianchen found evidence, they planned to tell the emperor about it, return the king's innocence, and release him from the prison......
As a result, when they went to the imperial study to meet the emperor, they met the eldest prince, Jun Qianyu.
"Father, the son has already checked, Lord Wu in the court is secretly cultivating killers, I'm afraid there are different intentions!" At this time, Jun Qianyu was reporting to the emperor what he had found.
This matter is extremely important to the imperial court.
The imperial court explicitly forbade officials to secretly raise killers and soldiers, and once discovered, they would never be spared.
Everyone was taken by the majesty of the emperor and did not dare to do this, so when the eldest prince found out about this, his heart was extremely shocked.
For so many years in the Great Qi Dynasty, although there have been many rebels, no one has dared to openly raise killers in Qidu.
This man's mind is already self-evident.
When Jun Qianchen and Bai Linxia learned that an official was secretly cultivating a killer, they guessed that Lord Wang's matter was very likely to be related to him.
"What?" After hearing the report of the eldest prince, the emperor was extremely shocked, "He is so bold that he dares to openly raise a killer under my nose?" ”
"When Erchen found out about this, he couldn't believe it, so he specially sent someone to carefully investigate, and the results confirmed that this matter was true!" The eldest prince sensed the emperor's anger.
However, he didn't care at all, after all, sooner or later, the Jiangshan Sheji would be handed over to him, and it would be beneficial for him to uproot a person who was distracted by the court......
"How can this be reasonable, arrest that person immediately, and I will interrogate him personally!" The emperor said angrily.
"Yes, Erchen will send someone over immediately!" In fact, when the eldest prince found out about this, he had already ordered people to keep an eye on him.
The eldest prince didn't want an accident halfway, so he let him run away.
Jun Qianchen didn't say a word to Bai Linxia, they already had a bottom in their hearts.
At this time, the emperor took the initiative to ask them why they came.
"Father, what the imperial brother found out is more important, and the matter between me and Xia Er will be discussed later!" Jun Qianchen deliberately delayed.
He wanted to wait for Lord Wu to come over, and then report to the emperor about Lord Wang.
Then Lord Wang will be able to wash the dirty water off his body.
A quarter of an hour later, the Great Prince's men escorted Lord Wu to the imperial study.
"Bold Wu Youming, you actually cultivated killers in private, do you still take me in your eyes?" The emperor asked.
