Chapter 357: Ye Chengxuan's death
Ye Chengxuan was very calm, and there was a faint smile on the corner of his lips, he seemed to know what Zhao Tianlin was here to do.
Zhao Tianlin looked at his expression, only to feel a strange feeling in his heart.
After hesitating for a moment, Zhao Tianlin finally said softly: "Cousin, my father has a decree to give you a glass of poisonous wine." ”
As he spoke, someone next to him served poisoned wine.
Zhou Shangshu, who was not far away, was shocked, His Majesty ordered Ye Chengxuan to die so soon?
"His Royal Highness King Zhao, didn't Your Majesty just say that Ye Chengxuan will be put in the heavenly prison and tried again at a later date?" Zhou Shangshu asked.
Died so quickly, he hadn't taken anything out of Ye Chengxuan's mouth yet.
Suddenly, Ye Chengxuan's gaze shot at Zhou Shangshu, a sneer on the corner of his lips, and said: "Zhou Shangshu, if you want to get something out of Ye's mouth, I'm afraid that you have made a mistake, instead of starting from Ye, you might as well think about how to deal with the master behind you." ”
In just one sentence, Zhou Shangshu's face changed slightly, and he said with a straight face: "Ye Chengxuan, this official is the secretary of the Criminal Department, since this case has arrived in the Criminal Department, the official naturally has to ask more." ”
As he spoke, he bowed to Zhao Tianlin and said, "Please forgive His Royal Highness King Zhao, according to the rules, the lower officials must check the holy decree." ”
People are imprisoned in the prison of the Criminal Department, and whether they are given death or released, the people of the Criminal Department have the right to demand that the Holy Decree be checked.
Zhao Tianlin signaled to the people behind him, and the attendants had already taken out the holy decree.
"Zhou Shangshu, please." Although Zhao Tianlin did not show it on his face, he was a little more vigilant in his eyes. The master behind Zhou Shangshu must be someone who has a grudge against him Zhao Tianlin, either King Yi or Yunjin.
Although Zhao Tianlin was not sensitive, when Ye Chengxuan mentioned it like this, he immediately had a plan in his heart, and naturally became suspicious of Zhou Shangshu. secretly said in his heart, maybe he should go and find out who Zhou Shangshu had a secret relationship with.
Zhou Shangshu was originally a sleek person, and naturally he could see that Zhao Tianlin had become suspicious of him, and he secretly said bad in his heart, he thought he was a cautious person, but after all, he was still seen to be flawed.
Zhou Shangshu cautiously looked at the return of the holy decree to Zhao Tianlin, and said in a slightly apologetic tone: "His Royal Highness King Zhao, the officials have only offended, and please don't blame His Royal Highness King Zhao." ”
Zhou Shangshu apologized again and again, thinking in his heart, be polite to Zhao Tianlin, even if he doesn't dispel Zhao Tianlin's doubts, it would be good if Zhao Tianlin couldn't say anything accusatory.
The facts were indeed as Zhou Shangshu expected, Zhao Tianlin was suspicious, but he couldn't say anything to accuse Zhou Shangshu.
"Zhou Shangshu, this king came this time to follow the will of his father, although the father's holy decree did not mention that others could not be present, but in the end, it was this king who was beheaded, and it was not too much for this king to let Zhou Shangshu avoid one or two, right?"
Zhao Tianlin's eyes showed a bit of threat, he was still King Zhao in the end, and it was not impossible to kill a criminal department Shangshu, if Zhou Shangshu did too much, the consequences could be imagined.
In the past, Zhao Tianlin may still have the intention of wooing Zhou Shangshu, so he would not threaten Zhou Shangshu, but now that he knows that Zhou Shangshu may be a person from the hostile camp, Zhao Tianlin of course has no scruples.
Zhou Shangshu smiled again and again: "It's not too much, it's not too much, and the next official will retire." ”
Of course he knew that Zhao Tianlin and Ye Chengxuan had something to say, but if he stayed here, he would not hear any news, but he would expose himself, and the gains outweighed the losses, so it was better to push the boat and sell Zhao Tianlin a face.
Finally, Zhou Shangshu left, Zhao Tianlin gave the attendant next to him a look, and the attendant understood, and hurriedly went to the door to guard and not let anyone snoop.
"Cousin, I'm sorry, my father's holy will has been decided, and this king can't do anything." Zhao Tianlin said to Ye Chengxuan.
Zhao Tianlin is really grateful to Ye Chengxuan, for so many years, Ye Chengxuan has supported him and helped him do a lot of things, even if he is reduced to a prisoner at this moment, he has helped him recognize the true face of Zhou Shangshu.
Losing Ye Chengxuan's powerful arm, Zhao Tianlin had to regret it.
Compared with Zhao Tianlin's regret, Ye Chengxuan looked very calm, and his eyebrows were slightly raised: "How did Your Majesty tell the prince?" Why did he have to give me death? ”
He seemed to have known for a long time that Emperor Yongqing would give him death.
Zhao Tianlin was silent for a moment and said, "Father said that because you take your children's private feelings too seriously. Cousin, do you really like Xie Qing? ”
Zhao Tianlin was actually not sure about this, no matter how he thought about it, he couldn't think of why Ye Chengxuan liked Xie Qing, "That woman has been against the Ye family from the beginning, she has lost face to the Ye family, and she has paid 50,000 taels of silver, she has such a big grudge with the Ye family, cousin, why do you like her?" ”
For one's enemy, it should be hate, how can there be love between men and women?
Ye Chengxuan closed his eyes and said, "I like it, I like it for no reason." ”
Even he didn't know why he liked Xie Qing, obviously he wanted to calculate her at first, but how did it become that he liked her?
Love, there is no reason, not even a sign, it seems that at a certain moment, he fell in love with her, as for which moment, Ye Chengxuan didn't know.
"This ...... How is this possible? Zhao Tianlin was stunned, how could this be.
"The more impossible it is, the more it happens." Ye Chengxuan opened his eyes, looked at Zhao Tianlin, and said, "Lord Wang, I'm giving you one last piece of advice." If you like a woman, you either get her all or kill her from the beginning. ”
Killing her is also a way to get her.
Zhao Tianlin didn't feel too much, he couldn't understand the essence of this sentence, because the girl he liked, Yun Zhixu, was his person.
"Cousin, since you know in your heart, why didn't you kill Xie Qing early?" Zhao Tianlin asked, "If you had done it earlier, you wouldn't be where you are today." ”
As Emperor Yongqing said, Ye Chengxuan had such a bad idea because he wanted to harm Yunjin, his rival in love, but now the East Window incident has harmed him.
Ye Chengxuan shook his head: "It's late......"
If he could kill Xie Qing now, he would have done it a long time ago, but wielding a sword to cut the love thread, it is easy to say how difficult it is to sit up.
"Getting Xie Qing is my goal, if I don't have this goal, then what's the point of everything."
Zhao Tianlin frowned: "Cousin, but your life is almost dead now, what's the use of having a goal." ”
is gone, how can you talk about getting Xie Qing, it's just a fool's dream.
Ye Chengxuan's eyes were slightly deep, he turned his head to look at Zhao Tianlin, and said, "Your Majesty gave me poisonous wine, it seems that you are planning to keep my whole corpse?" ”
"Even if you keep the whole corpse, then you will die." Zhao Tianlin said quickly.
When people are dead, there is nothing left.
The corners of Ye Chengxuan's lips raised slightly, and said, "Lord Wang, after I die, you can just send my body to a mass grave, and you don't have to send it to the Ye family." ”
Zhao Tianlin's brows furrowed tightly, "Your corpse will be eaten by wild beasts." ”
Wild animals are often found in mass graves, and most of the carcasses become food rations for the beasts. However, Ye Chengxuan didn't care, but said: "The Ye family's property has been confiscated, if it is buried in a coffin, it is inappropriate, besides, I am a sinner of the Ye family, but Ye Chengxuan's life should be buried in a mass grave." ”
Ye Chengxuan insisted, and Zhao Tianlin couldn't resist it, so he could only nod and agree in the end.
The poisonous wine was sent to Ye Chengxuan, Ye Chengxuan picked up the wine glass without hesitation, and was about to drink it, when he suddenly heard Zhao Tianlin say: "Cousin! ”
Ye Chengxuan's hand paused, and he turned to look at Zhao Tianlin.
"Cousin, this king will go and beg his father again." Zhao Tianlin didn't want to lose Ye Chengxuan's right-hand man after all.
Ye Chengxuan's heart froze, "Don't go." ”
"Lord Wang, don't trust anyone easily in the future, the only thing you can trust is yourself."
After speaking, Ye Chengxuan drank all the wine in the cup in one gulp.
As soon as the wine was in his stomach, blood flowed from the corner of his mouth......
Zhennan Palace
When Yun Jin and Xie Qing learned the news, Xie Qing was stunned for a moment: "Ye Chengxuan is really dead?" ”
Chen Yuan nodded: "My subordinates saw Ye Chengxuan's body being carried out of the prison of the Criminal Department, and my subordinates quietly stepped forward to check their pulses, and they were indeed dead." ”
"What about the corpses?" Yun Jin asked.
"Sent to a mass grave." Chen Yuan replied.
Yun Jin raised his eyes and said, "Go to the mass grave and check it again." ”
