Chapter 585: Guilty of Guilt
/
Li Xu turned his head to look at the generals who followed him, now that the surroundings of the palace were heavily guarded, the people who could come here to take charge were all officials trusted by the emperor.
At this time, the case has been investigated, all clues have loomed, and there is no need to delay any longer, and the emperor is ready to do it.
A carriage came slowly, and Li Xu saw a familiar figure, which was the steward and guard who followed Miss Xu's side.
She was the first to enter the palace.
Li Xu stood there, his eyes indifferent, and there seemed to be no expression on his handsome face.
"Li Xu," Cheng Ruhai, the secretary of the Criminal Department, walked over and said, "After the Xu family arrives, there will be palace people to search for everything she has brought, and you will seal it up and present it to the emperor for a while." ”
Li Xu responded.
"It's a pity," Cheng Ruhai sighed slightly, "A female relative is not at home but wants to be involved in such a thing, and I don't know what the final result will be." ”
Li Xu heard this, and his face did not change: "Does Master Cheng know what kind of evidence Miss Xu has gotten?" ”
Cheng Ruhai shook his head and said: "This is what the emperor ordered the chamberlain and the guards to do, and he didn't tell us, but after thinking about it, it will be clear......"
Seeing that Li Xu listened carefully, Cheng Ruhai continued: "The emperor has already mentioned the case of King Wei back then, which is naturally evidence of dealings with the Wei Wang Party, and this time the Anyi Marquis Mansion is over."
This Miss Xu is really powerful, she can always make extraneous branches wherever she goes, but the emperor has no time to accompany her, whether it is the king of Cheng or the party of the king of Wei, it is the safest thing to get rid of them. ”
Li Xu's eyes flashed, he always felt that things were not as simple as Cheng Ruhai thought.
Not far away, Xu Qinghuan got out of the carriage, she raised her head and looked over, there were officials from the Criminal Department standing outside the palace, and Cheng Ruhai was particularly conspicuous.
said that the Queen Mother summoned her, but in fact, she was just looking for an excuse.
There were already palace people in the palace who came out to serve Xu Qinghuan, but before they arrived, they felt a heavy breath coming to their faces, and then they were squeezed aside.
The palace people looked up and saw a round-faced maid looking at them fiercely.
"My young lady doesn't like others to get too close, you are all far away, the young lady is already delicate, you are surrounded here, you have to make people breathless."
Feng Xiao looked at each other angrily, and these people didn't feel good at first glance: "Don't you know how big you are?" Aggressive, who is this going to eat? ”
The palace people still wanted to step forward to speak, Feng Xiao "kicked" two steps forward, the palace people's faces immediately became ugly, this round-faced maid was tall and strong, and walked like a mountain moving, making them feel like they would be crushed into meatloaf at any time.
And who are they going to eat......
Gongren thought in his heart, and looked at Cheng Ruhai for help.
Cheng Ruhai had to step forward: "Miss Xu has a decree from the emperor, please ask the eldest lady to ......"
"Do you want evidence?" Xu Qinghuan asked, "Letting the palace people come to serve, in fact, is to search my body, afraid that I will hide the evidence and refuse to give it to the court?" ”
Cheng Ruhai didn't speak again, Miss Xu is a smart person, so he won't have to talk too much.
Xu Qinghuan took out a letter from his arms: "This is what I just got." ”
Seeing this, Cheng Ruhai was about to reach out to pick it up, and when he was about to pinch the envelope, Xu Qinghuan withdrew his hand again.
Cheng Ruhai's face suddenly darkened.
"Lord Cheng is so blessed," Xu Qinghuan said, "The evidence we found with great difficulty, you only need to wait here to get it at your fingertips, and if you solve the case in the future, Lord Cheng will still be the first to do it." ”
The girl had a smile on her face, as if she was sincerely congratulating.
Cheng Ruhai's eyes jumped: "This official is also ordered to do things." ”
"Your Excellency has to take this letter well," Xu Qinghuan said softly, "The stakes are very high, I advise your Excellency not to open it, in case something goes wrong, your Excellency can't afford it." ”
Cheng Ruhai sneered in his heart, Miss Xu is a teenage girl, she still doesn't know that the disaster is coming, and she is still proudly threatening him here.
He is a dignified secretary of the criminal department, and he is also a confidant of the emperor, no matter what the final outcome of this case is, he has his credit, and there is something he "can't afford".
Cheng Ruhai's eyes sank slightly, and he was a little more powerful: "Miss Xu has overstepped the rules, how can a serious case in the court be regarded as child's play, you are just a female dependent, you shouldn't have interfered in this matter......"
Before Cheng Ruhai finished speaking, Xu Qinghuan said: "Lord Cheng is right, so from now on, Lord Cheng will take over the case?" ”
The girl's eyes flickered, and for some reason, Cheng Ruhai suddenly had a bad premonition in her heart.
Xu Qinghuan handed his hand forward: "It's very heavy, the adult has taken it, and after the adult takes it away, these have nothing to do with me." ”
Cheng Ruhai took the letter in his hand, and Xu Qinghuan walked briskly towards the palace, as if he really let go of his burden and was relaxed.
Seeing Li Xu at the door, Xu Qinghuan's footsteps suddenly stopped.
"Master Lee."
Li Xu's face was as calm as ever, when she was talking to Cheng Ruhai just now, he was watching from the sidelines, she should know her situation, and she also understood why the imperial court arranged it this way, but it seemed that she had put these dangers out of the way.
No matter what happens, he is so unswerving, just because he has a marriage contract with the prince of Wei, or that the Marquis of Anyi's Mansion has long been tied to the Wei Wangfu.
"Did Master Li catch the person who poisoned Sister Ling? I heard that the Kong family also entered Beijing. ”
Sure enough, she knew it, and now she was suspicious of him by saying so.
Li Xu smiled slightly, the whole person looked sober and transparent, no matter when he was blinded by anyone, and he didn't need to be questioned and mentioned by others.
Xu Qinghuan staggered his gaze, remembering that in his previous life, Li Xu was preoccupied because the people behind the scenes had no clues, and at that time, neither Miss Li nor the Kong family seemed to have any clues.
Now she wonders, is everything really what Li Xu said?
……
Becoming a king is like an ant on a hot pot.
The atmosphere seems to be getting worse and worse.
"Lord Wang," the spy came to report, "Miss Xu of the Marquis of Anyi Mansion was invited to the palace by the Empress Dowager, and early this morning, the guards left Beijing and headed to the northwest. ”
Northwest Battalion.
King Cheng immediately became alert, and the two generals of the Northwest Battalion had some dealings with him, and the emperor did this to prevent them from making a move.
"Lord Wang," the staff said in a low voice, "There was news from the palace earlier that the emperor suspected that the Xu family was doing things for the Wei Palace, and now it seems that there should be evidence, otherwise Miss Xu will not be detained, but ...... It seems that the emperor is not ready to let go of the prince. ”
Cheng Wangye looked over with red eyes: "I originally thought that if the palace confirmed that the Xu family was the Wei Wang Party, I would be able to get out, but I didn't expect the emperor to send someone to the northwest camp again." ”
The staff said: "The emperor is going to cut through the mess quickly, he won't let them go or let go of the prince, the prince can't wait any longer." ”
King Cheng hung his head: "Then what should I do?" ”
The staff said softly: "It's better for the prince to go out and find Wang Ye Ning to think of a way, and ask the clan to come forward to protect the prince, and the prince can ask himself to be demoted to the king of the county, as long as he can save his life......"
King Cheng nodded: "Prepare clothes for me, I want to go out quietly, if someone finds out that I am still walking around, I am afraid it will attract more suspicion from the emperor." ”
The staff responded.
King Cheng changed his clothes, didn't take anyone, and left the courtyard quickly, he looked at the direction and prepared to go to King Ning's mansion, just left this alley, only to feel that someone behind him had stuck up, and then he only felt a pain in his neck, and his eyes suddenly turned black, and the whole person fainted there.
A carriage came galloping over, and the man put King Cheng in the carriage.
The carriage headed out of the capital.
King Cheng fled the capital, and his charges would be confirmed, the man watched the carriage leave, and slowly pulled down the cloth covering his face, it was Kong Wuye.
