Remember [ .] in one second, wonderful free reading without pop-ups!
"How?" Zhu Xinzhi asked.
Old Madam Hong shook her head: "The details of the slave family are not clear. The slave family only knew that Meng Zheping had made sufficient preparations to bring down the lord of Tai'an, and knew that she had a grudge against Shangshu Ling Zhou Tonghui, so he asked Zuodu Yushi to approach Zhou Tonghui. On the fourth day of the first lunar month, Zuodu Yushi Tian Yi poisoned the wine and poisoned Zhou Tonghui to death, and then put Zhou Tonghui back to Zhou's house. Then, they found someone to kidnap the younger brother of the Tai'an county lord and lure the Tai'an county lord to come, Meng Jinyi hid in the Zhou family's study, he had a stunt, it was a long-lost ventriloquist, he hid in the study, and when the Tai'an county lord came, he used Zhou Tonghui's figure to quarrel with the Tai'an county lord, and after the Tai'an county lord opened the door, he pushed the body out. “
Cai Minghe and Han Zhizhu were stunned.
Pei Xie Tang sat next to Zhu Xinzhi, and she later deduced this detail.
It's just that there's more to it, and she doesn't have an answer.
"At that time, the lord of Tai'an drank wine?" Zhu Xinzhi pondered for a moment and asked in a low voice.
If Pei Xie Tang was still awake, with her reason and intelligence, she would not fail to find that there was a big problem. The only explanation was that she was drunk at the time.
This question was beyond the scope of what Old Madam Hong could answer, she looked at Zhu Xinzhi in a daze, and she couldn't answer.
Instead, Meng Jinyi, who was beside him, sighed and said, "Let me answer." Yes, the lord of Taean was not sober at the time, she was drunk. I asked her to go to dinner that day. ”
I see!
This is the most effective way to ensure that the whole project runs smoothly.
Mrs. Hong has already said that it doesn't make much sense for Meng Jinyi to recruit or not. He glanced at Mrs. Hong and whispered, "You let her go, I did all the bad things, and it has nothing to do with her." ”
"I didn't embarrass her." Zhu Xinzhi whispered.
Meng Jinyi nodded: "I can say anything, everything you want to know." Pei Xie Tang did not kill anyone, I killed the person, Tian Yi's poison, Zhou Tonghui was already dead when he returned to Zhou's house. Pei Xie Tang's younger brother was kidnapped by me, and I sent it to Zhou's house to let people lure Pei Xie Tang to come, and these are all right. I did the killing, and I did the arson. Because Zhou Tonghui died of poisoning, in order to make the assassination more realistic, I also set fire to Zhou Tonghui overnight and burned Zhou Tonghui, and there is no proof of his death. ”
Murder, arson, he confessed!
Cai Minghe reacted and quickly recorded on the file. Han Zhizhu also quickly wrote down everything that Meng Jinyi said.
This time, Meng Jinyi was extraordinarily cooperative, as long as they wanted to know, they would answer word by word.
Truth!
There was no doubt, Zhu Xinzhi sat slumped in his chair, and his heart had gone from turbulent to calm and gloomy. He looked at the pen in front of him blankly, he didn't even have the strength to lift it, he looked at Meng Jinyi's mouth opening and closing, for a moment, he seemed to be deaf, he couldn't hear what he was saying, only vaguely relied on his lips and tongue to guess what kind of cruel words he was confiding.
Pei Xie Tang smiled from beginning to end, as if he had stiffened, and looked at Meng Jinyi strangely.
After sending off Mrs. Hong, Meng Jinyi became a lot calmer, and when he occasionally raised his eyes, he met Pei Xie Tang's smiling expression, and he couldn't help but be stunned, and he was stunned for a moment.
"What you just confessed, including the text of the former Taichang Wang Junyi, was also framed by you?" Cai Minghe repeatedly asked about the past, and was more and more shocked by the many details that were revealed.
Too much!
There are so many!
In the past ten years, many good officials in the eyes of the people have been convicted, and most of them have been imprisoned because of the wrongs of the Meng family, the Tian family, and the Hong family. The truth that the former Taichang Wang Junyi was exiled because of the text Yu was actually caused by the impeachment of the descendants of the Meng family for bullying and boycotting the market, which offended the Meng family. Also, this person is in-law with the Ji family, and the most capable person in the Ji family is currently serving as the deputy of the Tai'an County Lord in the Cold Copper Army.
Pei Xie Tang slowly raised his eyes and suddenly realized.
Ji family, she knows that there is only one person who is a deputy in the Cold Copper Army, and now Ji Yingchu, the commander of the Cold Copper Army.
This person turned out to be Wang Junyi's cousin-in-law.
Her heart was pounding, she couldn't imagine that this case would be investigated, but it would solve her other worries, and God really loved a good person.
Meng Jinyi opened his mouth, and Zhu Xinzhi didn't have to worry about the rest of the things, and Pei Xie Tang naturally didn't have to stay here anymore. The two came out of the criminal department hand in hand, boarded the carriage and returned to the Huai'an Palace. When I went back, there were still a lot of ignorant people gathered in front of the palace, still squatting and waiting for Zhu Xinzhi to come back.
"It'll be fine in a few days." Pei Xie Tang saw him looking straight over there, and pulled his sleeve: "Let's go through the back door." ”
"Hmm." He said, his feet didn't move.
Zhu Xinzhi's mind drifted far away, he looked at these people, and couldn't help but think of the county lord of Tai'an. He wronged this man, and she never seriously defended herself until her death. These days in his mind are constantly echoing, when he was on the Xuanjiao Tower, the words she once said, as if they were around his ears, how can they not be eradicated.
Pei Xie Tang pulled him hard, and when he saw that he didn't need it, he stepped forward and reached out to cover his eyes.
She said: "Lord, don't look at some things, don't think about them, a lot of pain is because we imagine a lot, so it becomes a knot in our hearts." ”
The body under the palm of his hand shook slightly.
Zhu Xinzhi clenched her hand: "Chengyin, aren't you sad?" ”
"Why should I be sad?" She was inexplicable.
Zhu Xinzhi looked deeply into her eyes, as if he had hidden a thousand words, but he didn't say anything.
The two entered the Huai'an Mansion together, and the chestnuts held by Pei Xie Tang were already cold, and even the residual warmth was gone. Pei Xie Tang also lost his interest in eating, so he went to Qi Meng's place after turning around.
still drank medicine at Qi Meng's, and after drinking, she went back to her room.
After that, Zhu Xinzhi didn't go out again.
The case has been heard, and the rest will be handed over to the Criminal Department. Because the case was too shocking, this time the Criminal Department acted extremely fast, and after getting Meng Jinyi's testimony, the Criminal Department quickly appealed to Emperor Xuanqing, got an arrest warrant, and quickly sealed the Meng family. A few days after Meng Zheping left the prison, he returned to this prison.
But this time, he had no reason or excuse to get away with it.
For three days in a row, the Criminal Department was in charge of the trial, the assistant of the Third Division, the Meng family, etc., and Tian Yi, who was involved in the case, was also arrested, and the case of murder and arson was quickly sorted out.
Meng Zheping admits everything, only in terms of motives, he always bites, only saying that the county lord of Tai'an offended him, and he deliberately retaliated, intending to get the military power of the cold copper army in the hands of the county lord of Tai'an. Even Zhu Xinzhi believed this reason, and asked the Criminal Department to submit a letter to Emperor Xuanqing according to this confession. After Emperor Xuanqing saw it, the thunder was furious and sentenced Meng Zheping to death on the spot.
At this point, after Zhu Xinzhi was infamous for many days, on the tenth day of the sixth month of the twenty-third year of Xuanqing, Emperor Xuanqing chose to make this confession in the daylight.
With the omission of this confession, more about the innocence of Pei Xietang, the lord of Tai'an, was known to the world, and her grievances were finally completely cleared!
At the same time, Zhu Xinzhi finally withdrew from this case, although he still bears the infamy, but he still took advantage of a blinded grievance, and the real murderer Meng Zheping became the person who was attacked by the people of the world after Zhu Xinzhi.
It's just that what is even worse than Zhu Xinzhi is that the unpopular Meng family has been frantically retaliated against by the people.
Overnight, even the walls of the Meng family were demolished by the angry people, and the angry people rushed to the Meng family, beating people and smashing things when they saw them, smashing the Meng family into ruins.
When it was dawn the next day, people found that there was a huge Meng Mansion, and even the subordinates were gone, and it became an empty house.
Where did the Meng family go?
What answered them were dozens of corpses in front of the ancestral grave of the Pei family on the outskirts of Beijing the next morning, and almost all the names and surnames of the Meng family were lying there, turned into cold bones.
Who did it?
Nobody knows. It wasn't until a long time later that people learned from the mouths of those escaped Meng family slaves that on the night when the truth was revealed, a man in black broke into the Meng family with countless killers, drove everyone in the Meng family to the Pei family's grave, knelt in a row, and after kowtowing to Pei Xie Tang one by one, in front of the house slaves, one by one, they all killed these people, and the warm blood flowed all over the ground, and the soil in front of the tomb was dyed red.
In the palace of the king of Huai'an, Pei Xie Tang sat on the swing with a dog's tail in his mouth, and looked at Gao Xingzhi playfully with his legs crossed: "You can't kill these people and hand them over to the law to punish them, how good is it?" ”
"I don't want to pay it." Gao Xingzhi said very bluntly: "I want to see them bleed." ”
Only in this way can she repay one-thousandth of the suffering she has suffered.
Pei Xie Tang leaned over and patted his head: "Silly boy, you are like this, you are easy to be punished by the Heavenly Dao." ”
"You killed tens of thousands of people on the battlefield at every turn, and you were not punished by the Heavenly Dao, what am I afraid of?" Gao Xingzhi sneered: "I Gao Xingzhi has never been a good person, God has long known it." ”
"Really." Pei Xie Tang nodded: "However, you can't do this, if you let people know that you did it, maybe someone will want to kill a hundred people." ”
"Zhu Xinzhi? I'm not afraid of him. Gao Xingzhi shook his head.
Pei Xie Tang did not continue.
Gao Xingzhi stretched out his hand and pushed her: "Don't keep talking about me, I ask you, the truth is revealed, Your Majesty's holy decree has been announced to the world, and you are now innocent." When will we leave the capital, you give me a quasi-number. ”
"Wait a few more days." Pei Xie Tang touched his chin, a little weak: "Meng Zheping was caught, isn't there another Li Xi?" ”
"What can he do in prison?" Gao Xing was puzzled.
Pei Xie Tang flicked his forehead fiercely: "Stupid you, Meng Zheping has carried it all, and it has nothing to do with the Chen family, and now the prince is still out of the matter, and the culprit has not been caught, if it doesn't pass Li Xi, how can we start to investigate?" Since the prince is Meng Zheping's son, Meng Zheping must clench his teeth for him, otherwise the prince's status will not be guaranteed, what he planned is still interesting? Also, Zhou Tonghui deceived his name and stole the world, and he couldn't let it go. “
