(470) Confess it yourself

Zhang Qingting finished reading the things that Baozhu ran out of breath and brought back to her, and when the bottom sank like water, even his hands trembled slightly. This stupid talent, he really let it go

Baozhu didn't seem to be in a good situation, and he was so anxious that he sweated, "Madam, what is this going on, uncle?" You have to think of a way, hurry up and stop him, take advantage of him to go to the temple to try, or let's carry out Miss Chunmei's body and bury it somewhere else? ”

Zhang Qingting smiled bitterly, he had all gone to the Jinluan Palace, what else could he stop? She took a deep breath and calmed herself. Zhao Chengcai sent the things back to Baozhu, which was the greatest trust in himself. He is not a reckless person, and since he dares to make such a decision, he must be sure that he can try it. What I have to do now is to cooperate with him as much as possible and ensure that he gets out of the way.

What to do? Zhang Qingting calmed down and thought about it seriously, and then instructed Baozhu, "Go and invite Ah Li quickly." Remember to be quiet, don't alarm anyone at all."

Baozhu took the order and left, and after a while, Yan Bowen came over, and he was surprised what happened. Zhang Qingting even let Baozhu retreat, and closed the door before opening what Zhao Chengcai gave her, "This is the jade ring carried by a girl named Chunmei next to the Zhu family, she is also your eldest brother's newly accepted concubine, Chengcai was imprisoned when the two of them shared hardships, so they gave him this jade ring at parting." Just last night, she was killed by your brother, but the murder weapon was a dagger given to her by Chengcai."

What the? Yan Bowen was so shocked that he almost jumped up, "You mean...... said that he planted the matter on Brother Zhao's head? ”

Zhang Qingting shook his head, "He didn't plant it, but at this time, Chengcai should be on top of the Golden Palace, and he should explain this matter to the emperor." ”

Yan Bowen was so shocked that he couldn't even speak, and it took a long time to come back to his senses, "Then what do you mean......"

Zhang Qingting's face was solemn, "He should want to break the kettle and sink the boat, so as to fight your brother because of this matter."

Yan Bowen immediately asked, "Does he have any favorable evidence?" ”

Zhang Qingting tapped his fingers on the table, "Chunmei is pregnant, it's only been more than two months, and your brother shouldn't know yet." If he knew, he wouldn't have abandoned Chunmei's corpse in the wilderness at will. When he wants to come to Chengcai Face Saint, he won't mention anything else, he just has to admit that the dagger on Chunmei's corpse is his, and then hand over her corpse, think about it, what will be the consequences? ”

Yan Bowen instantly understood, but when he thought about the whole thing, his face gradually turned white. After thinking about it for a while, he finally made up his mind, "Please leave this matter to me, okay?" If he can return to the Yan Mansion today, I will definitely be able to give you a satisfactory explanation before sunrise tomorrow. ”

Zhang Qingting guessed what he was going to do, but just sighed, "If it's too difficult, do you want to invite Second Master Qiao to come and find you a few helpers?" ”

Yan Bowen laughed self-deprecatingly, "If such an ugly thing happens, where do you still have the face to find others?" If I don't handle it properly, what should you do, just do it until I finish dealing with it, can you hide this matter for the time being and don't tell others? ”

Zhang Qingting nodded cautiously.

Yan Bowen bowed deeply to her before leaving. just confessed before leaving, "If the proprietress wants to go back to her hometown, don't forget to go and see the Taoist aunt who saved Mr. Du and them." That's a master of the world, and he is from the same family as the Yuming brothers, so he can't say that he can help a lot in the future."

Zhang Qingting's heart moved when he heard this, what did he mean by this?

It didn't take long, and Qiao Zhongda 100,000 people were in a hurry to send a letter with a fast horse, "Mr. Zhao was beaten down by the emperor, and even his residence in the Tai Hospital was all sealed, what happened here?" ”

Then, his people rushed over like a whirlwind, "but something big happened"

Zhang Qingting gave a deep salute, "Thank you for your concern, but now that you have played the heavens, no one can do the Lord, and wait patiently for the news."

In the Golden Palace, everyone was so frightened that they were silent. No one knows what kind of article the new middle school Huiyuan made, which made the emperor Long Yan angry, and he was thrown into the prison on the spot.

When they all thought that this palace test was going to be stirred up, and the emperor would be so angry that he brushed his sleeves away, the Son of Heaven still sat firmly in the court, and continued to read the test papers of the tributes one by one, so that the ministers did not know what kind of medicine was sold in his gourd.

Except for one tribute, the remaining 299 tributes still have to be supported here. The frightened sweat is light, and there are several timid people who can't support the fainting.

The emperor just waved his hand lightly, "carried out" and marked their test papers separately.

In this way, time flowed quietly, and the emperor, who had dealt with Zhao Chengcai, seemed to regain his calm little by little. But there was a man underneath, who had been soaked through his clothes in a cold sweat.

Seeing that Yan Bozhai's face was not good, others asked in a low voice of concern, "Lord Yan, what's wrong with you?" ”

As a courtier, although he was also nervous when he saw the emperor lose his temper, he was not so frightened as he was. Yan Bozhai is not a person without guts, why is he so abnormal today?

Yan Bozhai really suffered, what did that damn hillbilly write on the scroll to the emperor? He wanted to know more than anyone else.

Did he expose his old story in the abandoned garden of King Yan? Then why didn't the emperor deal with him in court? Besides, he still has the paper certificate written by Zhao Chengcai in his hand, how dare he betray himself indiscriminately?

Yan Bozhai has never felt that time is so difficult to survive, it is like a year

The emperor was not in a hurry at all, and continued to read every test paper seriously, and then began to circle the rankings. Sixty third-class jinshi were recorded, and they were given the same jinshi background. There are seven second-class jinshi, and they are born as jinshi. There are three first-class jinshi, and the jinshi and the first. Later, the Jinshi was given the "Hearing Banquet", and the eunuch led by the celebrant to lead a group of new Jinshi to wear red and hang colors, and after crossing the horse and parade in the capital, they entered the royal garden to go to the banquet.

Is this the cloud of heaven so scattered? Just as the tributes and courtiers wanted to leave quickly, a guard of the forbidden palace hurriedly entered to tell them.

After listening to the report, the emperor nodded, and finally began to speak, "Before that, there is something I have to tell you Aiqing, which is about Zhao Chengcai, the Yuan of this meeting." ”

Is this coming? Yan Bozhai didn't feel a little trembling in both legs.

The emperor glanced at everyone below with a smile, and beyond the sight, everyone was in danger. When everyone's hearts were raised high enough, the emperor opened his mouth unhurriedly.

Zhao Chengcai, the current Huiyuan, confessed in court that he was involved in a case and did not dare to deceive me, so he asked to cancel his qualification for this palace examination. So I'm okay. ”

As soon as these words came out, His Highness was in an uproar. Everyone's heart is thinking, is this Zhao Chengcai stupid? If you want to surrender yourself, you have to wait until there is no one, such a big fanfare, and you also surrender to the emperor, isn't that a pure old birthday star hanging himself, killing himself?

The emperor looked at the reactions of everyone below and smiled slightly, "But Zhao Chengcai said that he is not a murderer, but just used by others." What is the truth of this case, he begged me to try it myself. If the prison is not @** ** clear, then the society is unknown, and I am determined to take his case. If you have a good relationship with Zhao Chengcai, or know some unknown clues in the court, you may wish to report it to me. If you can solve the case based on this, you should be rewarded for your meritorious deeds."

As soon as these words came out, Yan Bozhai became even more nervous. Thinking quickly in his mind, what case did Zhao Chengcai commit? Could it be that he confessed that he did not poison King Yan's old party?

If that is the case, the emperor will personally investigate thoroughly, how should he deal with it? Especially what did the emperor's last sentence mean? Did you want him to come forward and confess?

If you don't work so the emperor, how can you use such a method? Even if this matter is exposed, and he didn't use the old party of King Yan to do anything to rebel, what reason does the emperor have to kill him?

Or maybe Zhao Chengcai didn't sue for this, but a play he co-starred with the emperor? The purpose is to make the ministers suspicious of each other and expose their own privacy? In the case of Zhao Chengcai suddenly falling into Huiyuan, this is also not impossible

So what to do? Rao is Yan Bozhai is resourceful, and he is also sweating profusely at the moment, and he doesn't know where to go.

The emperor smiled playfully, "You Aiqing don't have to be in a hurry, you can go back and think slowly, and if you think clearly, you have to come and play it quickly, otherwise when I find out in person, I will be ruthless."

His tail note jerked high, and then he got up and left cleanly, leaving only a majestic and sharp back. provoked the ministers to be even more frightened, but they didn't even dare to say a word about it.

It's just that these new Kegong soldiers are suffering, and they have a bitter face, and even those who have won the champion may not dare to bring out three points of joy on their faces. This year's champion is really not good

The ministers gradually dispersed, Yan Bozhai hesitated for a long time, and finally returned home. He didn't know that there was a little eunuch who had been quietly watching his behavior, and when he was gone, he hurried in to return to his courtesy.

When the emperor heard the news in the imperial study, he played with a small snuffbox in his hand for a long time, as if he had made up his mind to say something to himself, but no one could hear it clearly. It's just that the light in his eyes is firm, and he seems to have made a decision.

Yan Bozhai returned to the house in a trance, and when he entered the door, he accidentally tripped over the threshold and almost fell. Fortunately, the subordinates on the side supported him, but he frowned, and shouted habitually, "Qiu Sheng, Ming'er sawed this threshold lower."

The subordinates are inexplicable, I have never heard of anyone taking the threshold to get angry, besides, Steward Qiu has walked with his baggage, where to find someone?

As soon as Yan Bozhai said this, he regretted his words, and swept left and right in a bit of shame, "A group of useless minions led the way and went to the warehouse"

He desperately wanted to enter the innermost secret room and think about what to do, but unexpectedly, there was already someone waiting for him in the secret room.
