Chapter 283: The Zhao Family's Conspiracy

Wang Jian understood, personally took fifty forbidden troops, and walked quickly to Zhao's house.

As soon as I walked to the gate of the palace, I suddenly saw a carriage coming quickly towards the palace, and the waist plate on the carriage was the topaz nameplate given by Emperor Wu. This topaz nameplate is owned by only one person today, and that is the great Sima of the current dynasty, Lord Zhao Yilong.

Just as he was about to get him, he delivered it himself!

Wang Jian snorted coldly, reined in the horse, and stepped forward to stop the carriage. Zhao Yilong was stopped, lifted the curtain and took a look, and when he saw that it was him, a flash of color flashed in his eyes. Now that Wang Jian is out of the palace, it seems that the matter over there has been completed, and he is about to clean up the scene, right? Mu Yunge...... Zhao Yilong squinted his eyes, just with a yellow-haired girl, dare to fight with himself?

He greeted Wang Jian with a smile: "Commander Wang is in a hurry, where are you going?" ”

"Lord Zhao is also in a hurry, is he going to enter the palace?" Wang Jian said quietly: "Coming so late at night, there must be something important, right?" The princess gets married tonight, and I'm afraid of unrest inside and outside the palace, why don't I give Lord Zhao a ride? ”

"It's not good to disturb the office of the king's commander, there is the palace in front, I'll just go over by myself." Zhao Yilong smiled slightly, wanting to shirk.

Wang Qianpi arched his hand with a smile: "Everyone is an official in the same dynasty, what do you say to disturb or not, Lord Zhao is really too polite." Lord Zhao also said that it was not far away, and it was convenient for each other to do so. Lord Zhao, please! ”

Zhao Yilong was slightly surprised in his heart, and couldn't help but wonder if there was no success over there. But according to the agreement, if there is an accident on the way, the son will definitely send someone to deliver the message, whether it is to terminate the operation or continue to do it, you have to listen to his instructions. But since there is no message, it must be successful, there is no reason for Wang Jian to be so idle.

Wang Jian stretched his hand forward, he couldn't ask more, Wang Jian didn't pay attention to Zhao Yilong at all, turned over and got on the horse, leading the way in front, and his own soldiers surrounded the carriage, with a posture of strict monitoring.

Poor Zhao Yilong has been cunning all his life, but because of blind confidence, he didn't think about the word arrest at all, so he obediently cooperated with Wang Jian into the palace.

Wang Jian saved a good battle of words in the Zhao family out of thin air, of course, the faster he went, the better, for fear that it would change later. It wasn't until the palace door closed behind him that he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. took Zhao Yilong to the outside of the Changge Palace, Qi Chun went in to pass the word, and soon Emperor Wu summoned the two.

"Zhao Qing is not resting at this hour, what are you busy with?" Emperor Wu listened to Wang Jian whispering about the encounter, so he asked questions without being salty.

Zhao Yilong was full of excitement, but he didn't notice the change in Emperor Wu's tone, and bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, the old minister got a report late at night, and there are some accounts in the horse farm built by the Marquis of Changyi, and the amount is huge, and the minister doesn't dare to hide it, so he came to report it late at night." ”

"It's huge, how big?" Emperor Wu groaned slightly: "You, a great Sima in charge of military affairs, how can you have anything to do with the horse farm matters directly managed by the Marquis of Changyi and the Ministry of Industry?" ”

These words were obviously suspicious, Zhao Yilong had already lived into a human spirit, and his feverish brain suddenly calmed down, and he heard a hint of extraneous sound from it. He secretly screamed in his heart, and hurriedly checked whether he had misbehaved when he first came in, but there was nothing unusual, and he really didn't know where he angered His Majesty. If it is said that before entering the palace...... The attitude of Commander Wang is not unusual, and it is impossible to think about it! What was wrong, he was a little confused for a while.

Emperor Wu asked, and he couldn't help but answer, so he had to say: "It's good that the racecourse is directly managed by the Ministry of Industry, but it happened suddenly, and the steward of the racecourse was worried that the Ministry of Industry was colluding with the Marquis of Changyi, so he didn't dare to complain, so he had to ask for the old minister's mansion to ......."

"Really?" Emperor Wu's face completely changed: "I don't know yet, it turns out that some people can already cover the sky with one hand to control the situation of my court. ”

"Your Majesty, the minister listened to the secret report, and quickly recruited people from the racecourse to ask about it, and there are some things that Your Majesty should listen to with your own ears." Zhao Yilong's heart was empty, but his evidence of this matter was conclusive, and it was impossible for Mu Zhizhao to think about it.

Emperor Wu snorted: "Biography." ”

Wang Jian went out of the hall again to lead the people, and soon, two strong men dressed as subordinates followed a slightly better dressed middle-aged man and entered the hall together. As soon as the two of them came in, they immediately knelt down in an orderly manner, and eloquently told the huge amount of things that had been found to be the accounts of Hou Ke in Changyi.

The middle-aged man, who was richly dressed, was the steward of the horse farm, and he supervised the construction of the horse farm when it began. Today's princess got married, the Marquis of Changyi was not in the house all day, it happened that there were some problems in the stockyard in the racecourse, and a sum of money was needed to levy the temporary supply of folk forage, and the steward could not find anyone, so he asked the dragon steward around Mu Zhizhao, and the dragon steward made the decision to let him embezzle it by himself, and finally registered the amount and put it on the table of Mu Zhizhao in the account room.

The steward made the booklet, and when he brought it to the desk of Mu Zhizhao in the account room, he unexpectedly saw an open account book on the table, many of which were annotated with cinnabar pens, and the amount was not small.

The steward was momentarily curious, and after looking through it, he realized that it was a secret ledger. At a cursory glance, the amount of money is huge and jaw-dropping. He didn't want to care too much, but he found that many of the amounts were obtained by deducting the people's money, and he was not angry and chivalrous, so he took the account book and sued the Da Sima Mansion.

"He's an idle Marquis of Changyi, what do you want so much money for?" Finally, the steward cleverly said: "It is really hateful to leave the people's lives alone and fill their own pockets!" Please call the shots of Your Majesty! ”

Emperor Wu was full of anger and listened casually, but this last sentence made him raise his eyebrows.

The so-called speaker is unintentional, but the listener is intentional, not to mention that what is said is to listen to people with a heart, why don't you think about it all of a sudden?

Emperor Wu was silent and looked at Wang Qian, as if he wanted to find a point to settle down. Wang Jian stood as steady as a mountain, and when he saw this, his brows were furrowed, as if he couldn't figure it out.

This military general has always been loyal, and Emperor Wu never doubted that he would betray him, so he immediately looked at him: "Wang Qing, you seem to have something to say?" ”

"Your Majesty, the minister doesn't have anything to say, but he just doesn't know something, and he just wonders." Wang Jian looked at Zhao Yilong, a trace of indifference and arrogance between his eyebrows, and his expression was extremely disdainful: "Since that secret ledger is the most important thing, how could the Marquis of Changyi casually put it in an account room where anyone can enter, and put it on the table so carelessly, and not put it away?" Besides, the Mu family is a merchant, even if it is sold a lot for the military salary of our Great Wei, it still has a family foundation. How much money can be deducted from the deduction? A bundle of hay is only four pieces of silver, which is the market price, and the official purchase is slightly higher, that is, the appearance of six yuan. The minister has seen the amount on the Hou Bao of Changyi, and it is also this amount, where does this deduction come from? ”

He didn't say that Emperor Wu didn't feel it yet, but when he said it, he suddenly felt that this was what he meant.

Emperor Wu nodded, and when he looked at the steward, his eyes were dyed with disgust: "Wang Qing is right. Was that ledger really discovered? Present it to me. ”

Zhao Yilong had long expected this to happen, and gave the steward a look.

The steward immediately took out a stack of pamphlets from his arms, held them in both hands, and handed them to Qi Chun.

Qi Chun presented it to Emperor Wu, and Emperor Wu snorted, took it and began to look through it. However, after only reading two pages, he slammed the booklet on the table and said in a cold voice: "Bold minion, dare to use this kind of thing to bluff me, is it really good for me to deceive?" Is this the handwriting of the Marquis of Changyi? Not at all! Just take a book casually, and want to falsely accuse the Marquis of Changyi, I'm really impatient! ”

As soon as the steward heard this, a cold sweat suddenly fell, who was the person in front of him? The Son of Heaven of Great Wei can decide his life and death with a casual sentence, and he hurriedly distinguished: "Your Majesty, this is really obtained by the grass people in the account room, and it is indeed the handwriting of the Marquis of Changyi!" ”

"Your Majesty......" Zhao Yilong was also surprised in his heart, and hurriedly spoke for the steward.

How could it not be? He personally found someone to steal the manuscript from the Mu family, and found someone to copy it, how could it not be right?

"See for yourself." Emperor Wu didn't bother to pay attention to him, snapped the booklet and threw it to him from the dragon chair.

This attitude has never been worse, and no matter how slow Zhao Yilongrao reacts, he knows that something is wrong. But the only thing that can happen now is probably tonight!

Don't...... Is His Majesty already knowing?

Originally, I thought that if His Majesty believed in Mu Zhizhao's dereliction of duty and corruption, he would definitely investigate it, and when the time came, he would search the Mu family, with Qiao Fengqi's cooperation, he would definitely make the Mu family never have the possibility of turning over, and he would no longer have time to take care of Mu Yunge.

But if the incident has already happened, this time, it is clear that he hit the muzzle of the gun, Zhao Yilong can no longer care about this steward and the strong man who testified behind him, and protecting himself first is the first priority.

He quickly pondered in his heart, if Emperor Wu already knew about the matter on Suzaku Street, he would enter the palace at this time, and he would obviously bump into His Majesty's gun! He already secretly regretted that he shouldn't be in such a hurry, how could he wait for Zhao Tingqi to send back the news of success, and then enter the palace to secret.

But...... It's too late, and now we can only do our best to remedy it.

But Zhao Yilong has no chance.

After such a scene, Emperor Wu no longer believed him, first assassinated the prince and the prince, and now conspired to frame the courtiers. Zhao Yilong's courage surprised him, and he was jealous in his heart. With killing intent, he naturally will not show mercy to his subordinates. The Zhao family is different from the Xiao family, he can grind slowly against the Xiao family, but if the Zhao family is one step late, it will cause an uproar, this bet, Emperor Wu can't afford to lose!

Thinking of this, he slowly stood up, and there was a moment of frustration in his squinted eyes, and he quickly recovered his coldness: "Zhao Yilong has failed the emperor's grace, instructed his son to assassinate the prince, eradicate dissidents, and frame courtiers, the crime is unforgivable, and he will be immediately detained and handed over to the Criminal Department for trial!" ”

"Assassinating the prince is equivalent to conspiring against him, and everyone in the Zhao family is guilty of the same crime! Wang Qing, you immediately take five hundred soldiers to surround the Zhao family's mansion, and those who abscond will be killed! Emperor Wu gave the order, Qi Chun knew his thoughts, and quickly took the token and handed it to Wang Qian.

Wang Jian closed the token and bowed down. The smell of blood this night spread completely......
