Chapter 149: Winter is coming
At this moment, a little eunuch came to the door with a tray, Wynne went out, the little eunuch whispered a few words to Wynne, Wynne took the tray, turned around and entered the door.
Huai En said to Chen Jianjun: "Your Majesty, Wang Zhi has already choked his breath. ”
Chen Jianjun sighed irritably: "Find a place to park first, and then bury after finding out the reason." Although he hated Wang Zhi, after all, Wang Zhi had been with him for so long and had done a lot of things for him. Wang Zhi is dead, and it will take a lot of effort to find someone to be in charge of the West Factory.
"Your Majesty, the boys who brought the things Wang Zhi with him have brought them over."
"Take the plaque with his name engraved on it and burn it." Chen Jianjun commanded.
"Yes! In addition, there are a few things, Your Majesty, would you like to take a look......" Wynn said cautiously.
"What else?" Chen Jianjun was surprised and said, "That's it, take it and take a look." ”
Wynne brought over the tray and lifted the cloth that covered it.
Chen Jianjun took a look at it and was furious: "Where did he go to Zhaoming Zhenren with these things?" ”
In addition to a few odd items, there was also a jade and a crystal bottle filled with ointment.
Wynne bowed his head and remained silent.
"Smoke him to a pulp, and throw his body in a mass grave to feed the dogs!" Chen Jianjun was trembling with anger, only to feel that Wang Zhi died too quickly and easily.
Wynn knelt down: "Your Majesty, the old slave has a few words to say. ”
"You say!"
Not long ago, some people secretly discussed that Wang Zhi relied on the position of the commander of Xichang, blackmailed ministers, intimidated internal officials, collected tens of millions of materials, and bought fields in the suburbs of Beijing. He also took advantage of the opportunity to choose palace maids and eunuchs, and placed some young girls and teenagers in his manor and tortured and killed. The old slave didn't know whether the rumors were true or not, so he didn't immediately return to His Majesty. However, looking at Wang Zhi's current behavior, I am afraid that these rumors are not groundless. ”
"Is there such a thing? Check it out for me! Chen Jianjun gritted his teeth.
In the afternoon, Chen Jianjun came to Feixian Palace again. This time, Zhang Weizhao was picked up in the Dan Courtyard that originally assisted Chen Jianjun in his cultivation.
Chen Jianjun saw Zhang Weizhao, whose cheeks were red and swollen, his lips were cracked, and there was a blue and purple mark around his neck, and in addition to heartache, he deepened his hatred for Wang Zhi.
However, heartache is heartache, and the mystery in his heart still needs to seek answers from her.
"Why did Wang Zhi sneak into your room in the middle of the night?" Chen Jianjun asked.
"I don't know. Your Majesty should ask Wang Zhi. Zhang Weizhao replied.
"He's dead."
"Then there will be no one to answer."
"What did he say after he sneaked in,...... What was done? Chen Jianjun's voice was very low, and when he asked this question, he half-turned his head, and his eyes did not look at Zhang Weizhao.
"As soon as he sneaked in, I noticed that something was wrong, so I went out of the inner room to check, and when he saw me, he scolded me for being a slut, a demon, and a dead innocent. Come up and choke me by the neck. I fought back, reached for the scissors on the case, and stabbed him. Zhang Weizhao's voice was suppressed but steady.
"That's all?" Chen Jianjun turned his head to look at Zhang Weizhao.
"That's all." Zhang Weizhao looked at Chen Jianjun and controlled the gaze of his eyes for about thirty seconds. Avoiding the other person's gaze too early, or deliberately prolonging the gaze of the other person's eyes, are all signs of lying.
In fact, Wang Zhi certainly said more than that. After Chen saw that Jun was fortunate to leave without throwing his sleeves, Zhang Weizhao deduced that Wang Zhi would come to question her within twelve hours, so he was prepared. When Wang Zhi sneaks into her room and angrily accuses her of sabotaging their original plan, Zhang Weizhao provokes Wang Zhi with an arrogant and contemptuous gesture.
Wang Zhi's mood was already extremely unstable, so he couldn't help but make a move on Zhang Weizhao, and when he choked Zhang Weizhao's neck, Zhang Weizhao showed a fragile expression and a painful moan. Zhang Weizhao, who has always been unruly, moaned in pain in his hands this time, which made Wang Zhi extremely excited. Just when he was immersed in a crazy mood, Zhang Weizhao took out the scissors that he had prepared a long time ago and stabbed him.
This is the first time Zhang Weizhao has killed someone, and it was a premeditated killing. To her surprise, after hearing the news that Chen Jianjun had confided in Wang Zhi's death in person, she didn't have many emotional fluctuations. Her early education instilled in her the notion that murder is sinful, regardless of the purpose. But now she is willing to take on this responsibility to stop Wang Zhi from killing more innocent people.
Hearing Zhang Weizhao's above answer, Chen Jianjun breathed a sigh of relief, what he was most worried about did not happen, Zhang Weizhao was still intact and clean. But he was not satisfied with this answer, because he had no way to guess Wang Zhi's intentions from Zhang Weizhao's account.
Chen Jianjun paced in the room, and after walking back and forth, he turned around and asked Zhang Weizhao: "You are a heart doctor, you understand people's hearts, according to you, why do you think he behaves like this?" ”
"He's crazy. I've been crazy for a long time. He should have been guilty of murder for pleasure. Zhang Weizhao thought for a while and said.
This coincides with Huaien's earlier remarks that Wang Zhi was suspected of abusing and killing palace maids and eunuchs. At the same time, Zhang Weizhao's judgment also reminded Chen Jianjun of another thing. Wang Zhi is in charge of the West Factory, and there are some things that cannot be solved on the surface, which are carried out privately by the secret service agency of the West Factory. After Wang Zhi became the governor of Xichang, he invented more torture and torture prisoners, such as pouring boiling water on people and then brushing the flesh with an iron brush. Or sharpen the stake and let the prisoner sit on it.
Chen Jianjun didn't know about his behavior, although he felt that his methods were a bit excessive, just because he was very fast and efficient, Chen Jianjun didn't ask about it. Now that these things are connected, he found that Wang Zhi did have some signs of abnormality a long time ago.
"Why is he eyeing you?" Even if he already believed Zhang Weizhao's words, Chen Jianjun couldn't help but ask again, Zhang Weizhao has always been valued by him, and Wang Zhi didn't know, how dare he attack Zhang Weizhao?
"He especially doesn't like untamed people. Wanting to teach heretics a lesson, and being beaten to obedience, is his hobby. Zhang Weizhao said this with a sneer on the corner of his mouth. This is indeed the truth.
Chen Jianjun also knew that what Zhang Weizhao said was right. When Wang Zhi was in charge of the West Factory, he was so happy and cut off dissidents, and he also knew all this. It's just that he is very tame to himself, so Chen Jianjun feels that as a good dog, it's nothing.
Who doesn't love a tame person? Who doesn't want their minions to be obedient and not disagree, even if they themselves are not the same?
Thinking of this, Chen Jianjun suddenly realized a problem. He Huo Ran turned around and looked at Zhang Weizhao's eyes: "In your eyes, am I also crazy?" ”
Zhang Weizhao's eyes were like deep pools, looking at him without speaking.
"Sure enough, sure enough!" Chen Jianjun tilted his head and laughed. "I'm afraid in your eyes all my actions are just crazy!" The laughter was bitter and sad.
"I don't think you're a madman. In my eyes, you are a deeply wounded person. ”
"Very deep trauma, very deep trauma...... Chen Jianjun muttered in his mouth: "Aren't you a heart doctor?" You're here to heal me? But you just want to push me away. ”
"I'm a healer. But I'm first and foremost alone. There is no way that I can redeem you when you trample on my will and imprison my body. Slaves have no power to redeem anyone, and at best slaves can only obey and curry favor. ”
"I just want you to stay by my side and give you glory and status, is this trampling and imprisoning you? That's how you see me? In your eyes, is there no difference between me and Wang Zhi? Chen Jianjun was heartbroken.
"Do you think that if I stay by your side as a favorite concubine, the hole in your psyche will be filled and the pain will disappear? No, it won't. There is a law of medical heart, that is, we must face it little by little, do our homework little by little, and get better little by little. No one person can be a panacea for another person, as long as you are with this person, you can immediately get eternal happiness. It's just an illusion. ”
Chen Jianjun sneered: "Then if you become the crown princess, you can cure my illness, right?" ”
Zhang Weizhao looked at him and said nothing.
"Since you don't want to be the imperial concubine, you can stay in the Feixian Palace and be your Zhaoming real person. As long as I am the emperor, you will be a real person for as long as I am. Imprisoned is imprisoned, what can you do to me? He brushed his sleeves away.
Wang Zhi was killed with a rod because he angered the emperor and threw him in a mass grave, and the news soon spread throughout the government and the opposition, and the crowd was shaken.
Wang Zhi's enemies rushed to the mass grave, cut his body into pieces, and divided it up.
Wang Zhi's behavior became more and more obedient and ruthless, offending many people. But before, Chen Jianjun was used to doing things with him, and secondly, he had the support of Jin Guifei, so no one could shake him.
However, who knew that in the past six months, the situation in the palace has changed abruptly. First, Jin Guifei fell, and then Wang Zhi died mysteriously. There were rumors, but no one knew exactly what was going on.
What the common people in the market like to discuss the most is how many rare treasures have been found from Wang Zhi's mansion and grange, and how many prostitutes and beautiful maids have been released.
And what the courtiers were most concerned about was who would become Wang Zhi's successor. However, Chen Jianjun only temporarily appointed a deputy to act as the admiral, and several days passed, and he was not formally appointed.
There were courtiers who couldn't hold back to ask the palm print eunuch Huai'en. Wynne had always kept his mouth tight and didn't reveal anything.
is also low-key, as well as the prince who has been lifted from the ground. Many people wanted to figure out what the connection was between the lifting of the crown prince's ban and Wang Zhi's death, but in the end they did not get any definite information.
When Chen Youcong came out this time, he lost some weight, and his originally warm and warm face began to become cold.
He himself knew very well that winter was coming, and the situation he would face next would be even more severe.
