It turned out to be the emperor. Zhao Zheng smiled, "So what does the imperial brother mean?" ”

Since An Peiquan came here, he must have come with the emperor's instructions.

"What the emperor means is that if it's a family matter, don't make too much trouble, and it's not good for the people in the capital to watch the excitement." An Peiquan also truthfully conveyed the emperor's intentions.

"Let the royal brother bother." Zhao Zheng said lightly.

"What is going on? Who is behind this? An Peiquan began to listen to the truth.

"It's because I don't know who is behind the scenes, so I have to find out." Zhao Zheng replied lukewarmly.

"After finding out, what does the Seventh Prince want?"

"Naturally, the murderer will be severely punished."

"The emperor means ......"

"Even if you don't make a statement, you can be severely punished." Zhao Zheng interrupted An Peiquan's words.

An Peiquan was stunned, remembering what the emperor said about An Yiru's disappearance of his mother, so he was silent and severely punished, and Zhao could do it.

Then, Zhao Zheng and An Peiquan sat upright and did not say a word.

An Peiquan wanted to ask An Yiru about her situation in the palace, but he couldn't open his mouth, he didn't care too much about An Yiru, and he didn't have an heir, so he had a guilty conscience.

Moreover, An Peiquan vaguely felt that Zhao was aware of An Yiru's inability to have children, so he became more and more weak and simply didn't talk about more topics.

The two sat in silence for a long time, until there was movement in the outer hall, and then the solemn atmosphere in the back hall was eased.

The front hall is where the thugs of the gambling house turn themselves in. The thug thought about it for a long time, anyway, he didn't stab anyone, Shen Yuexi didn't die, and the blame for the left and right was not great, hiding in Tibet was not a long-term solution, and his family was detained by the yamen, so he simply came to confess.

"It was Wei Shi, the head of the nursing home of the Prime Minister's Mansion, who instructed the little one to assassinate the girl, and the little one knew that this matter was very sinful, so he didn't dare to do it, so he transferred it to him...... "The slapper pointed to the scoundrel kneeling under the hall.

In the face of the interrogation of the judge, all the thugs were recruited.

Hearing Weishi's name, An Peiquan got up and walked to the screen in the back hall, but stopped again and looked back at Zhao Zheng, who was still leaning on the chair, bowing his head and fiddling with the jade pendant hanging on his waist, looking completely surprised and not in a hurry.

The more Zhao Zheng is like this, the more An Peiquan is a little unsettled in his heart, he has been mixed in officialdom all his life, he is scheming, and his joy and anger are invisible, but today's matter, he is a little uneasy, it is obvious that only An Yiru can make Weishi do this kind of thing, An Peiquan is not sure what Zhao Zheng wants.

"Seventh Prince, what do you think should be done with this matter?" After thinking about it, An Peiquan walked up to Zhao Zheng and asked in a low voice.

Zhao Zheng raised his head and looked at An Peiquan, "Wei Shi is a person from your mansion, I should ask you what to do with it." ”

"As the emperor said, this is a family matter, since it is a family matter, the seventh prince will go back to the house with me, and I will hand over Weishi to you and let you dispose of it." An Peiquan handed over the decision to deal with this matter to Zhao Zheng.

Zhao Zhengcai didn't want to be this wicked person, Wei Shi dared to do this kind of thing, in the final analysis, he was instructed by An Yiru, and he couldn't be soft on An Yiru this time.

"What should I do with the people in your house?" Zhao Zheng kicked the problem back again, his face was light and light, and he couldn't see half of his heart.

"Even if he does such an unforgivable thing, the Prime Minister's Mansion can't tolerate him......" An Peiquan said.

Before An Peiquan's words were finished, the judge in the front hall walked in, and he only now understood why An Peiquan came to the yamen, it turned out that he had long known that this matter was related to the people in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

The people in the Prime Minister's Mansion poisoned the people in the Kangping Palace, wasn't that the Seventh Princess's order?

The judge did not know how to continue the trial for a while, so he went to the back hall to find out.

"The prisoner was recruited just now, saying that he was instructed by Wei Shi, the head of the nursing home of the Prime Minister's Mansion, the Seventh Prince, Prime Minister Zuo, how do you think we should deal with this matter?" The judge asked in a whispered with some embarrassment.

An Peiquan couldn't answer, and turned his head to look at Zhao Zheng.

Zhao Zheng was silent for a while, and then said to the judge: "The two kneeling in the outer hall, one sees Qian Yankai harboring evil intentions, and the other openly hurts people with a knife on the streets of the capital, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, such evil acts cannot be forgiven, and should be severely punished according to the law, as for Wei Shi, this king believes that the prime minister will give an explanation," Zhao Zheng looked at An Peiquan, "Is that right?" Father-in-law? ”

The four words of Master Yuezhang made An Peiquan's heart tighten.

"That's natural, even if the people in my house make mistakes, they will be punished, and I will never cover them up." An Peiquan finally made his attitude clear.

"In that case, let's go to your house and see if that Wei Shi is still there." Zhao Zheng finally got up, and he was also ready for Weishi to escape.

"What about the lower officials?" Whether he should go with him to witness or stay in the yamen to deal with the two prisoners in the outer hall, the judge was a little unsure of what to do.

"Just dispose of those two people, let those who know about this matter take care of their mouths, this king doesn't want to hear some undeserved rumors outside." Zhao Zheng said coldly.

Be. The judge understood.

Then, Zhao Zheng and An Peiquan left the yamen and went to the prime minister's mansion.

**

In the Prime Minister's Mansion, An Yiru slept for a long time, and when she woke up, her mind was a little dizzy, and her spirit became more and more sluggish.

Mrs. An was a little worried, and asked her subordinates to invite Lang Zhong to come, but An Yiru shouted to stop her.

"My daughter is not in the way, but she didn't sleep peacefully last night and is a little tired." An Yiru said to Mrs. An, then looked at the sky outside the window paper, and hurriedly got off the bed, "It's time for my daughter to go back to the house, if the seventh prince knows that his daughter went back to the prime minister's mansion without permission, he will be unhappy." ”

Hearing An Yiru's words, Mrs. An sighed secretly, but she didn't stay longer, "Then you bring some snacks back, it's useless to even have lunch, how can your body stand it." ”

The old mother on the side heard this and hurriedly went to get snacks.

After An Yiru put on her boots and cape, the old mother also ran back with her legs and feet, carrying a food box and handing it to Chunya.

Then, Chunya carried the food box in one hand and An Yiru in the other, and walked outside the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Along the way, An Yiru looked around, secretly guessing whether Wei Shi had escaped.

Unexpectedly, before he walked out of the mansion, he saw An Peiquan and Zhao Zheng walking in together.

Seeing An Yiru, Zhao Zheng was not surprised, but An Peiquan was taken aback, "Ru'er, why are you here?" ”

An Yiru's heart was about to jump out of her chest in fright, but she still pretended to be calm and said: "My daughter missed her mother, so she came back to take a look." ”

Zhao Zheng looked at An Yiru, turned his head and asked the butler of the Prime Minister's Mansion on the side, "Let Weishi come out to see this king." ”

The butler said yes and hurried to the next room.

Hearing Zhao Zheng say Weishi's name, An Yiru shook and almost fainted, praying secretly in his heart, hoping that Weishi had escaped.

However, Wei Shi did not escape, and after a while, Wei Shi walked out with the housekeeper.

From a distance, Wei Shi looked at Zhao Zheng fiercely, this man took away the woman he loved, and he was inseparable from him.

Zhao Zheng also felt this hostility coming from the air, he turned his head to look in the direction where Wei Shi was walking, his eyes were as dark as a deep pool, and he couldn't see through the emotions.

When Weishi approached, before he could stand firmly, An Peiquan stepped forward with a solid slap.

Except for Zhao Zheng, this slap surprised everyone.

An Yiru's whole body was leaning on Chunya, her heart was beating so hard that she couldn't breathe.

An Peiquan is kind to Wei, he almost grew up in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and has always been loyal to An Peiquan, and after being beaten by An Peiquan, Wei has no complaints.

"Do you know why I hit you." An Peiquan asked in a low voice hateful.

"I ......" Wei Shi raised his eyes and looked at An Peiquan, wanting to say that he didn't know, but after thinking about it, he had already reached this point, and if he denied it, it was not only boring, but also really did not seem responsible, so he said truthfully: "It is true that I single-handedly planned this matter, no matter how I want to be punished, I am willing to bear it." ”

"This matter involves the Kangping Palace, and I can't protect you, the Seventh Prince is here, you kneel down to apologize, and ask the Seventh Prince for forgiveness." An Peiquan saw that Wei Shi had taken all the blame, so he didn't ask too much, and directly asked him to intercede with Zhao Zheng.

However, An Peiquan didn't know that Wei Shi had always loved An Yiru, so he asked Wei Shi to kneel down to Zhao Zheng, and in front of An Yiru, it was better to kill him with a sword.

Wei Shi stood still.

An Peiquan was a little angry, "Don't you kneel down to the Seventh Prince and admit your mistake." ”

Zhao Zheng looked at Wei Shi and didn't say a word.

Wei Shi also stared at Zhao Zheng, standing stubbornly, refusing to kneel.

"Why did you assassinate Yuexi?" Zhao Zheng finally spoke.

Zhao Zheng felt that Wei Shi's eyes were a little strange when he looked at him, with complicated hostility, how could he have such eyes? Unless...... Thinking of this, Zhao Zheng turned his head to look at An Yiru on the side.

An Yiru coldly bumped into Zhao Zheng's sharp eyes, trembled in fright, and hurriedly withdrew his gaze.

"Say, why did you assassinate Yuexi?" Zhao Zheng asked again, already a little impatient, he took out a short knife from his waist and held it in his hand, this short knife was specially brought by him today.

Seeing Zhao Zheng take out the knife, An Peiquan became worried, if Wei Shi continued to be hard-mouthed, it was not clear that Zhao Zheng would really kill him.

"Wei Shi, don't admit your mistakes to the Seventh Prince." An Peiquan almost gritted his teeth and said this.

"I'm not wrong, I'm looking at the grievances that Miss has had in the Kangping Palace, fighting for Miss, everything is done by me alone, if you want to kill or chop casually." Wei Shi refused to admit his mistake.

"How do you know that your young lady has been aggrieved in the Kangping Palace?" Zhao Zheng asked with interest.

An Yiru couldn't stand it anymore, she was too afraid that Wei Shi would say something that shouldn't be said, so that Zhao Zheng didn't think about her at all, so she threw herself in front of Wei Shi, raised her hand and slapped her, "What kind of thing are you, you dare to guess the matter between me and the Seventh Prince like this?" ”
