Chapter 124: Shut up the prisoners
Xu Peicang heard the familiar voice, raised his buried head, and saw Xu Qiaoshi in the crowd at a glance, he got up suddenly, grabbed the wooden fence of Xingche tightly, and there seemed to be tears in his old eyes.
"Madam, go back quickly, properly settle the family for your husband, and Brother Hua'er, Madame will teach him well for her husband." Xu Peicang choked up like a fish in his throat.
He also knew that he had gone to Beijing this time, and he had never returned, and the most reassuring thing for him was the child at home, although he was born to his concubine, but now he is only eight years old.
An eight-year-old child has no father, not to mention a concubine born to a concubine, and he used to be covered by a father, and without him in the future, he will definitely be bullied.
He also knew that even if he told his wife, for a woman, a child who was not his own, he did not love it so much.
Zeng Rong turned a blind eye to the insults around him and the filth hanging all over his body, and his face was still calm and calm.
Maybe until this time, he still firmly believes that the person behind him will save him from his predicament, even if he can't re-enter the office in the future, but he is willing to follow that person and serve him.
He also believed that he had been faithful for so many years, and that the man would know his loyalty and would not give up on him.
It's a pity that imagination is always so beautiful......
In that unknown place.
"Lord Wang, Lord Eleven and Han Tao have discovered the stone boat in the river." A dead man fell to his knees on one knee and reported with a blank face.
Behind the curtain, a voice as cold as a cold pool came out: "How could they find the stone boat in the river?" ”
"Han Tao borrowed troops from the General Military Mansion and ordered people to go down to the river to investigate, but I didn't expect them to let their blind cats run into dead rats, and they were discovered within half a day." The dead man replied.
"Blind cat meets dead mouse?" The person behind the screen sneered and said: "All the coincidences in this world are the result of careful calculation, and this king does not believe in coincidences." ”
The dead man pursed his lips and was silent, kneeling on the ground and not daring to move at all, bursts of incense came into his nose, and the atmosphere of the whole room seemed to be dull in an instant, and even the temperature gradually dropped.
There was only the sound of chess pieces falling on the board, and with each chess piece dropping, the dead man felt that the air around him had become a little heavier.
After a long time, the person behind the screen spoke again and said slowly: "What about Zeng Rong? ”
"I have been escorted into Beijing by people from the Criminal Department." The dead man replied meticulously.
With a "click", the chess piece seemed to fall harder.
"Kill him before he steps into the capital."
It's a cold, temperature-barred command.
At this time, another voice with a bit of sharpness sounded in the room: "The prince is not afraid of chilling the hearts of the people below when he does this." ”
The dead man's heart was slightly cold, but there was no surprise on his face, the prince naturally would not play chess with himself, and it was conceivable who the person who was playing chess against the prince.
"It's just a chess piece, and the chess piece should have the consciousness of being a chess piece, and a chess piece that has no use value, what's the use of keeping it?" The person behind the screen rarely replied patiently: "Besides, how could Xiao Shiyi and Han Tao know that there is something in the river, Zeng Rong was caught in the net, and it is self-evident who leaked it." Those who have broken the king's great things, all! Should! Die! ”
"Go ahead and do it, remember to get it done." This is what he said to the dead man.
"Subordinates obey." The dead man replied tremblingly.
The prince said so, if he can't do it well, it will naturally end up with Zeng Rong.
It wasn't until the dead man left that another murmur came from the house, as if he was alone: "Little Eleven, Little Eleven, I didn't expect that we were going to be enemies, your leg is already crippled, do you know how unbearable my brother is?" It's a pity that you should have stayed in your own Anwang Mansion honestly and ended your life. ”
As soon as Han Tao got out, he hurried back to the post house, and it happened to be dinner time again, and now he not only had to eat at the eleventh prince's place, he had an even more urgent matter, and he needed to discuss with the eleventh prince.
An Chengluo looked at Han Tao who came to the door as soon as the meal arrived, his face darkened faintly, but he didn't have a seizure, he already knew how poor this Lord Qincha was, and it was not easy to keep the silver to raise the outer room, so let him be kind to him.
Han Tao didn't care about drinking wine and eating meat, and as soon as he sat down, he hurriedly said: "Lord Wang, the big thing is not good, the case we investigated, I don't know who spread the news, now everyone knows that a stone boat was found at the bottom of the river, and the people are even more popular." ”
"What's the hurry?" An Chengluo ate the food unhurriedly, and said leisurely: "When the news spreads, regardless of whether there is a direct relationship between the stone boat in the river and the collapse of the moat, it will naturally make the people behind Zeng Rong take action, as long as they take action, we don't have to worry about not being able to catch their handle." ”
Han Tao was stunned when he heard this, as if this was the truth.
But the case has not yet been clarified, how can the facts of the case be revealed casually?
If these officials knew that he, the chief judge, would definitely be impeached, maybe at this time, there would be officials who would impeach him in front of the emperor.
The eleventh prince just doesn't have a backache when he stands and talks, even if there is an official who impeaches him, he is not afraid at all, who makes the emperor his father!
Han Tao suddenly felt a cold gaze sweeping towards him, and his heart sank slightly.
He said the wrong thing, and the eleventh prince couldn't stand up at all!
But...... Why does it always feel like the eleventh prince seems to be able to see through his thoughts, and he didn't say anything, the prince suddenly turned cold, what's going on?
"Is there any other progress on Lord Han?" An Chengluo asked coldly.
Not only did he know what Han Tao was thinking, he also knew that Han Tao said that he couldn't stand up, and he really had the urge to stand up and slap Han Tao a few times.
But if you can't bear it, you will make a big plan.
Think about it or remember it first, and then draw it later.
Han Tao sighed slightly, and said: "Xia Guan has traveled all over the riverside road, and he has constantly sent people outside to listen to the previous news, but everyone has different statements, and most of them are hearsay, which is not enough evidence at all. ”
"If you want to prove that it was a man-made bombing of the embankment, Zeng Rong may be the only witness, but it is obviously not easy to make him speak, and now Zeng Rong has been handed over to the Criminal Department, I hope the Criminal Department can pry his mouth open."
An Chengluo picked up his wine glass, sneered, and said, "I'm afraid that Zeng Rong won't live to Jingshi at all, let alone let the criminal department pry open his mouth." ”
When Han Tao heard this, his face changed slightly, and he said, "The prince thinks that someone will rob the prisoner?" ”
"It's not about kidnapping prisoners, it's about keeping prisoners shut up forever, and there is nothing more direct than death." An Chengluo smiled lightly.
"How daring!" Han Tao slapped the table angrily, stood up suddenly, and said, "If someone really goes to kill Zeng Rong, where is the king's law?" ”
An Chengluo raised his eyes and took a deep look at Han Tao.
