Chapter 297: Questioning the King of the County to reveal his murderous intentions
Xia Zhu's throat was still bleeding out, Hua Zhen raised her head to look at Jin Wuwei who was standing with her head down, and asked in a very calm voice, "What's the matter?"
"Last night, a group of people attacked the prison of the Criminal Department at night, and were stopped by the Secretary of the Criminal Department, Lord Li, who found out that these people who attacked the Criminal Department were the same group as the people who came to assassinate the county lord, so Lord Li specially asked people to come and send a letter and ask the county lord if he wanted to go and see. Jin Wuwei said that he was also shocked in his heart.
The assassin of the county lord attempted to assassinate him, and turned to attack the criminal department.
In addition to those condemned prisoners in the prison of the Criminal Department, Wei Guogong is still locked up, and eighty percent of these people are going to Wei Guogong.
As soon as the county lord was attacked, someone attacked the prison of the Criminal Department behind him, and these two groups of people were together, which couldn't help but make people think deeply.
Hua Zhen listened to Princess Jincheng's words at the beginning, and then she thought that Xiao Zhengze would send someone to deal with the Criminal Department, but she didn't expect that the person who dealt with the Criminal Department was actually with the person who assassinated her.
Immediately, I was puzzled in my heart, the person who assassinated her was arranged by the Dongjun Palace, and the Dongjun Mansion had nothing to do with the Xiao family.
Qin Huai's figure appeared in her mind, and Hua Zhen's heart trembled slightly.
It wasn't Qin Huai and Ruoyun's strategy.
Thinking of what Qin Huai said to himself, he couldn't help but shake his head.
Jin Wuwei listened to no movement, and he didn't know whether to advance or retreat for a while, and it was a little embarrassing to stand in place.
After a long time, I heard Hua Zhen say coldly: "Okay, you go down." ”
He quickly turned around and went out, and when he left, he glanced at Xia Zhu lying on the ground, still with palpitations.
He is a person of Jin Wuwei, and he has seen dead people, let alone how he died.
At a glance, he knew that Xia Zhu was committing suicide, but thinking that this was the most useful person around the county lord, he committed suicide in front of the county lord.
The more I thought about it, the more I felt numb in my back, but I didn't dare to look at it and retreated.
Seeing this, Jiang Fu hurriedly went out and ordered someone to dispose of Xia Zhu's body.
Hua Zhen looked at the blood stains on the ground, and the look in her eyes darkened a little: "The person who ordered the money shopkeeper must find Xia Zhu's father and mother to settle down, and as for her death, don't let them know." ”
Jiang Fu nodded, and he could see that his face was also a little sad.
Although Xia Zhu betrayed herself, seeing her die so decisively, she was a little soft-hearted after all.
Piercing the throat with a hairpin is the most painful way to die, because it will not kill you immediately, and you will slowly feel the pain and suffocation.
Xia Zhu chose to atone for her sins with this death, and chose to use the hairpin that Hua Zhen rewarded her.
Closing her eyes to remove the tears in her eyes, Jiang Fu instructed her mother-in-law to deal with it, and then accompanied Hua Zhen outside.
"County Lord, where are you going?"
Hearing this, Hua Zhen looked at the sky outside and said softly, "Go to the Dongjun Palace." ”
After speaking, Jiang Fu ordered someone to prepare the car and accompanied Hua Zhen to the car to the Dongjun Palace.
Waiting for the carriage of the county lord's mansion to leave, the carriage that had been hiding in the alley slowly came out.
The boy sitting in the carriage looked at Hua Zhen's carriage and said softly: "Second son, the county lord is out, look at this direction, I'm afraid I'm going to the Dongjun Palace, it seems that she didn't take the second son's words to heart." ”
Hearing this, Xiao Zhengze, who was sitting in the carriage, had a cold smile on the corner of his mouth, and suddenly made people scared: "Since she is so afraid of death, then I don't need to be soft-hearted, just as she wants." ”
said and ordered: "Let's go, it's time to enter the palace to say goodbye to the emperor." ”
After saying that, the carriage drove out of the alley and walked slowly towards the palace.
Hua Zhen didn't know that Xiao Zhengze hadn't left, and had been hiding near the county lord's mansion, keeping an eye on his whereabouts.
In his heart, he was just thinking about the matter between Qin Huai and Ruoyun.
Dongjun Wangfu saw that it was the carriage of the Qinghe County Lord's Mansion coming, and suddenly their faces changed, and someone hurriedly stepped forward to greet them, and someone turned around and ran in to tell the housekeeper.
When the housekeeper of the Dongjun Mansion heard that the county lord of Qinghe was visiting, his expression was very complicated.
But he didn't dare to delay, and stepped forward and asked respectfully: "I don't know what the Qinghe County Lord is here for?"
Hearing this, Hua Zhen said softly: "I'm here to visit the eldest prince, and there are some things I want to ask the eldest prince." ”
Hearing this, the housekeeper's face changed, and he remembered what the county king said, and he hesitated a little in his heart.
Seeing this, Hua Zhen smiled and said, "What, isn't there something inconvenient?"
Hearing this, the housekeeper looked at Hua Zhen, and knew in his heart that the eldest prince regarded her as more important than his own life, and now he almost lost his life several times because of the woman in front of him.
Immediately, his eyes rolled, and then he said: "That's not it, the county lord misunderstood, it's just that the eldest prince's injury is a little serious right now, and I don't know if I can meet the county lord, the little one is afraid of neglecting the county lord, so it's better to let the little one go to report to the county king first and ask the county king what he means." ”
"It's good to be sorry for you. ”
"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be, and ask the county lord to wait for a while. The butler said, hurry up and look for the king of Dongjun.
Since the assassination of the king of Dongjun happened, since the criminal department found evidence that the matter was related to the king of Dongjun, the emperor called him to the palace and reprimanded him.
Now he is even more out of the door, thinking about it behind closed doors at home.
was looking at the words he had just written in the study, and when he heard the housekeeper say that Hua Zhen came to visit, he immediately frowned: "What is she doing here!"
"I said that I wanted to see the eldest prince, but I had something to say. The butler spoke very cautiously.
I saw that the face of the king of Dongjun was full of anger.
Qin Huai ended up now, he was punished and thought about it behind closed doors, which has nothing to do with Hua Zhen.
It is also natural that the king of Dongjun does not like Hua Zhen.
can think that after all, this is the county lord of the emperor's own title, if it is according to the grade, this is still on an equal footing with the county king, so that people wait at the door, and it is really a little unseemly to be seen.
Then he said cautiously: "County King, the county lord of Qinghe is still waiting outside the door, but let the county lord come in first." ”
Hearing this, a trace of displeasure flashed on the face of the king of Dongjun, but he had no choice but to say coldly: "Let her go to the side hall." ”
Hearing this, the housekeeper hurriedly went out and respectfully invited Hua Zhen to the side hall.
As soon as the king of Dongjun entered the door, he saw Hua Zhen standing in the middle, even if he wanted to put on a good face, but he couldn't do it.
Fortunately, Hua Zhen didn't care about these either, and when she saw the king of Dongjun, she was blessed: "Zhen'er visits the king of the county." ”
"I don't know what happened to the county lord of Qinghe?" Hearing this, the king of Dongjun turned around and sat down on a chair beside him, not even wanting to look at Hua Zhen.
Seeing this, the corners of Hua Zhen's mouth raised slightly: "I came here today to have a sentence that I want to ask the eldest prince of Qin, but now that I think about it, asking the eldest prince of Qin is the same as asking the king of the county, so there is no need to be so troublesome, I want to ask the king of the county one thing today, but I know that someone broke into the prison of the criminal department at night last night." ”
Hearing this, the king of Dongjun was stunned for a moment, and looked at Hua Zhen, his eyes were full of shock: "What did you say?
Looking at the reaction of the king of Dongjun, a trace of doubt suddenly rose in Hua Zhen's heart, but she endured it and did not show a single thing: "Yes, it seems that the king of the county has not received the news, someone broke into the criminal department at night last night, and there are quite a few people, there are more than a dozen people, fortunately, Master Li, the secretary of the criminal department, is leading people to inspect, and when he encounters this live thief, he will take them all." ”
Saying that, his brows furrowed slightly: "But there is one thing that is very incomprehensible, that is, these people are from the same door as the person who assassinated me two days ago, so I want to ask today, I don't know if the king of the county knows about this, but I know who arranged these people, why did they break into the Ministry of Punishment at night, did they want to save someone, or kill someone?"
Now if the Criminal Department is calculated according to the value, the only person who is valuable is my cousin Wei Guogong, aren't these people going for my cousin?"
Hua Zhen said, the look in her eyes was meaningful.
King Dongjun's face suddenly changed: "Hua Zhen, you are saying that I sent someone to the Criminal Department." ”
Hearing this, Hua Zhen smiled and said: "The county king misunderstood, I just said that these people are from the same door as the person who assassinated me in the first place, and I didn't say anything about it." If it was the intention of the county king, the people who came to assassinate me in the first place were all arranged by the county king. ”
"Nonsense!" King Dongjun's face turned blue with anger, and he didn't dare to look at Hua Zhen's eyes, only feeling that those eyes seemed to have some kind of witchcraft, and could see through people's minds.
Turning his gaze to the side, the hand hidden in the sleeve of the king of Dongjun was tightly clenched into a fist.
Seeing this, Hua Zhen said coldly: "There are some things that the county king and I are not stupid people, who did it, everyone knows it." I'm just trying to figure out one thing today, and now that I'm clear, I won't bother the king. Of course, if the eldest prince is in good health, Hua Zhen really wants to visit the eldest prince of Qin, but she doesn't know whether it is convenient or not. ”
King Dongjun turned his back to Hua Zhen and didn't speak for a long time.
Hua Zhen was not in a hurry, just looked at the back of King Dongjun, and the corners of her mouth kept a shallow smile, which made people can't help but say in their hearts, she is really a bold girl.
After waiting for a while, the housekeeper felt sweat on his forehead, and then the king of Dongjun turned around and looked at Hua Zhen's eyes.
instructed the housekeeper: "Take the county lord to see Huai'er." ”
Hearing this, the housekeeper hurriedly responded, and then stepped forward and respectfully invited Hua Zhen to Songfeng Garden.
The king of Dongjun looked at Hua Zhen's back, and there was a trace of killing intent in his eyes, which was never stronger.
If it was the Queen Mother's intention to get rid of Hua Zhen, now he wants to kill this woman.
Not because of the side, just because this woman is too smart and too calm.
Such a person, if it is a friend, it is the honor of a lifetime, but if it is an enemy, it is an enemy who can make the Dongjun Wangfu irreversible.
Now that he has offended her, he will never try to solve this misunderstanding.
If you want to defend the Dongjun Palace, there is only one way, get rid of her.
While she is not yet capable of dealing with the Dongjun Palace, she will completely get rid of this trouble!
