At night, Chu Muxiu sneaked into Dali Temple with Qianche at night. Zhang Weizhi is a cautious person, and some of the records related to him have already been ordered to be destroyed, and Chu Muxiu searched for a whole night in it before he found some treasury expenditures that were not signed by the government.

Just a few sheets of paper are not enough.

Wei Lian took a big breath before he had the courage to step into the Imperial History Mansion again.

Wei Lian walked in and saw Zhang Weizhi and a few of his subordinates in the house, so he walked in, "My lord, I'm back!" ”

Zhang Weizhi was not surprised, and turned around slowly, "Why did you come back so old when you lived?" ”

"King Yi is treacherous and cunning, I was hit by his secret weapon that day, and I tried my best to escape, because I was seriously injured and cultivated in the temple outside the gate for a few days, and I rushed back to recover as soon as I was injured!"

Zhang Weizhi glanced at Wei Lian and then at Feiyan: "Since this is the case, then you can rest well, and leave the rest to Feiyan!" ”

Fei Yan seemed to glance at Wei Lian with a mockery: "Fei Yan will definitely live up to the expectations of adults." ”

Regarding Wei Lian's sudden return, Zhang Weizhi didn't notice anything, he dealt with too many things every day to count, how could he have the leisure to care about what a subordinate was planning in his heart.

In fact, it is also excellent to let Wei Lian rest well, so that Wei Lian has more time and opportunity to find evidence. Everyone in the Imperial History Mansion knows that Zhang Weizhi has a habit, that is, he will go to the underground palace in the west wing of the garden every day after dinner, and he will stay for two or three hours each time.

Every day, Zhang Weizhi doesn't let others follow, and no one knows what is inside.

After dinner today, Zhang Weizhi still went to the underground palace in the West Wing as before. Wei Lian felt that there must be some ulterior secrets inside, maybe all the evidence was hidden in that underground palace, and Wei Lian carefully followed Zhang Weizhi all the way.

Zhang Weizhi is a cautious person, looking back from time to time along the way to see if there is anyone following him, Wei Lian walked gently, and when there was a big stone around him, he went in and hid, and Zhang Weizhi did not find it on the road.

When he arrived at the underground palace in the west wing, Zhang Weizhi lit a lantern, removed a wooden board on the ground and slowly went down.

Zhang Wei stepped down in front of him, and Wei Lian followed in the back foot.

It was dark inside, Wei Lian followed Zhang Weizhi's light all the way to touch it, and the structure inside was actually no different from an ordinary house, but it was very dark and dark, and it was so black that it made people feel terrible. Zhang Weizhi turned several corners, walked to the end of the corridor, pressed his hand on the wall, a light flashed, and a door opened in an instant, Zhang Weizhi threw the lantern at the door and walked in, Wei Lian also sneaked in.

Wei Lian hid by the wall of the dungeon, and as soon as he entered, his eyes were opened. There are several large boxes of gold, silver and jewelry, although Zhang Weizhi has a lot of money, but it is not a lot of money, most of these are deducted from the hands of the people, Yulin Army's military salary. Zhang Weizhi's plan was not only these, he pulled down the curtain on the other wall, and it turned out to be all kinds of high-grade weapons. Zhang Weiyi touched the weapon and muttered, "The silver taels are enough, there are countless high-grade weapons, and when the old man gathers manpower and captures Huancheng, this country is my Zhang Weizhi." ”

Wei Lian was taken aback, he had followed Zhang Weizhi for so many years, but he didn't expect his ambition to be so big, and he actually wanted to rebel and usurp the throne.

Wei Lian accidentally slipped and kicked a stone.

Zhang Weizhi turned around suddenly: "Who?" ”

Wei Lian was already scared out of a cold sweat, hiding there motionless, looking at Zhang Weizhi's footsteps getting closer and closer, Wei Lian's palms were already in a cold sweat.

"Meow~Meow~Meow."

Zhang Weizhi smiled and picked up the cat that came out of the box with one hand: "Could it be that you also want to steal my silver?" ”

After saying that, he viciously shook off the cat, and the cat broke its leg, licking its injured leg and foot with its mouth, and wailing endlessly......

After tossing and turning, it was getting late, and Zhang Weizhi went out with a lantern.

Wei Lian watched Zhang Weizhi walk out, and only when there was no shadow did he dare to slowly move his body and poke his head out. The shining gold and silver treasures, countless sharp weapons, all this in front of him was definitely a visual feast for Wei Lian, and he was in a trance for a while before coming back to his senses.

Wei Lian then began to rummage through the cabinets, except for gold and silver, which is jewelry, Wei Lian even searched the hilt and blade of the weapon, but he couldn't find anything, let alone any files, not even the shadow of a piece of paper. Wei Lian was so tired that he sat down with his back against the wall, "If you don't live in this underground palace, where will the old thief hide?" ”

Wei Lianzheng was muttering to himself at a loss, and as soon as he lowered his head, he saw a pile of rice paper pressed under the box. Wei Lian was surprised, and it took a lot of effort to remove the box, and tore out the rice paper to see that these were all the expenditures of the treasury without the government's drawing, and the amount of money spent in the years, months, and days was clearly written in black and white, and where it was spent, and the silver reported in it was several million taels. No wonder I couldn't find evidence of Zhang Weizhi's excesses in tax deductions, it turned out that he had replaced the files with rice paper, so that it was difficult for the government to investigate, and the government had turned a blind eye, so if it couldn't be found, it simply wouldn't be investigated.

Wei Lian flipped through the rice paper in his hand, and his heart was happy. A reddish strip of white cloth slipped down from the rice paper, and Wei Lian picked it up and saw that this was not an ordinary strip of white cloth, but a blood letter, which Feng Shufei wrote down with her last breath to testify against Zhang Weizhi. In fact, Feng Shufei knew that this matter was planned by the Queen Mother, and Zhang Weizhi was just an accomplice, but at that time, the queen was powerful, and Feng Shufei did not dare to write this blood letter until she was lying on the bed and had her last breath, and it was nothing if she died, thinking that her son Chu Muxiu was still young and could not provoke the Queen Mother, so there was no mention of the Queen Mother in the blood book.

This trip was well worth it.

Wei Lian wrapped the rice paper and blood book in the package, delivered it to Chu Muxiu as soon as possible, and told Chu Muxiu everything he saw, Chu Muxiu was also surprised, this Zhang Weizhi grew older and his ambition grew, but he was afraid that he would already have to live for a long time before he sat on the throne.

"Your Highness, in these criminal evidence files, Wei Lian also found the blood book of Concubine Shuniang."

Chu Muxiu was stunned: "The blood book of the concubine? ”

Chu Muxiu then looked at it carefully, and there seemed to be a hint of firmness in his eyes, "Murdering the former concubine, secretly hiding weapons with the intention of rebellion, human and material evidence are gathered, this time Zhang Wei will definitely not be able to return to the sky!" ”

Tomorrow, Zhang Weizhi and Chu Muxiu entered the hall at the same time, Zhang Weizhi never imagined that this would be the last time he would get up in the morning. Seeing Chu Muxiu, he even greeted Chu Muxiu leisurely, "Your Highness, you look in high spirits today!" ”

Chu Muxiu sneered: "The same is true of Lord Yushi!" ”

In the court, His Majesty talked back and forth about some national affairs, and His Royal Highness's ears were almost calloused when he heard these things.

Gonggong Li stepped forward and waved the dust, "If there is something to play, there is nothing to retreat." ”

"Brother Chen, something to do!"

"Say."

Chu Muxiu stepped forward and glanced at Zhang Wei, "The younger brother is going to report the imperial history lord Zhang Weizhi today, deduct taxes, and reduce military salaries......"

Before Chu Muxiu finished speaking, Zhang Weizhi was angry, and said with a red face, "Your Highness has to talk about evidence, the old minister has been an official for many years, and he has always been loyal, and he doesn't dare to think about it." ”

His Majesty is obviously on Zhang Weizhi's side: "Yes, everything must be evidenced, is there evidence for these things that the sixth brother said?" ”

"There is no evidence, how dare the younger brother expose Lord Yushi in public in the court. ”

Chu Muxiu turned his head to look at Qian Che, who was carrying a box in his hand and handed it to Gonggong Li. In the box, Chu Muxiu deliberately pulled out Concubine Feng's blood book, if the Queen Mother saw it, it would be bad for him.

Everyone's eyes were staring straight at the box in Gonggong Li's hand, and they had already begun to talk in a whisper, Zhang Weizhi was so flustered that he raised his throat, and secretly looked at Chu Muxiu from time to time, and when he saw Chu Muxiu, he became even more nervous.

His Majesty opened the box, took out the rice paper and looked at it, His Majesty looked at it, Chu Muxiu said, "Now Your Majesty sees that these are the silver taels that Lord Yushi has absorbed from the treasury for twenty years, and I remember each one clearly, a total of eight million taels of gold, but the same thing is that there is no signature from the government." Formal accounts are recorded by special civil officials with files, but these treasury accounts are replaced by rice paper, which is obviously that some people are afraid of being discovered, so they secretly change the rice paper records. ”

There was a quiet noise at the bottom, Zhang Wei's dog was a human power, there were too many enemies in the court in the past twenty years, and if there was a little bit of trouble, everyone would come and intervene.

"This, for so many years, it's the first time someone has used rice paper to keep accounts......"

"Rice paper is used to make fake accounts......"

His Majesty was furious: "Bold Zhang Weizhi, he dares to embezzle the treasury privately!" ”

Zhang Weizhi was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he knelt down tremblingly, "Your Majesty has clearly investigated, twenty years have passed since the incident, this rice paper can be faked, just rely on a few pieces of rice paper without drawing to cure Weichen's crime, Weichen is really wronged......"

Your Majesty actually knew all the dirty things that Zhang Weizhi had done, but he still needed his help, so he didn't do anything to him, and now it was better to bring Zhang Weizhi down with the help of Chu Muxiu.

Chu Muxiu probably also saw His Majesty's doubts, and said, "Your Majesty, my brother still has a personal witness. ”

"Oh, yes, bring it on!"

Wei Lian walked in and knelt down, "Wei Lian participates in Your Majesty." ”

Hearing Wei Lian's voice, Zhang Weizhi turned his head suddenly, "Wei Lian? How are you? ”

Wei Lian just glanced at Zhang Wei, and then turned to His Majesty, "Your Majesty, I was originally a subordinate by Zhang Weizhi's side, and I have always been loyal to follow him to do things for him, but I never expected him to kill my whole family." I have come this time to expose his sins, he has a grudge against His Royal Highness, and has sent me to assassinate His Highness many times, he embezzled the treasury and withheld military salaries. By the way, he also secretly hid many weapons in the underground palace in his house, and gathered people and horses outside, intending to rebel! ”

"It's nonsense, I know that I hurt your family, and you have always hated me," after speaking, he kowtowed to His Majesty, "I beg Your Majesty to investigate......"

Chu Muxiu said to His Majesty: "What Wei Lian said is true or false, Your Majesty sent someone to the underground palace in the west wing of the Imperial History Mansion to see if it is true!" ”

His Majesty immediately sent someone to the Imperial History Mansion to find out, Zhang Weizhi was anxious at this time, but he couldn't go out, so anxious that his eyes were rolling around.

"Report!"

"Back to Your Majesty, the Yulin Army we sent did find a large number of energy weapons in the underground palace of the Imperial History Mansion, as well as a large amount of jewels and gold!"

"Criminal minister Zhang Weizhi, what else do you have to say now, come on, remove Lord Yushi from his official position and put him in prison."

The two Yulin soldiers walked over and dragged Zhang Weizhi down, Zhang Weizhi wailed, "Weichen is wronged, please Your Majesty to investigate ......"
