said that on this day, Xi Ze went to the Ministry of War to take office, and all the officials of the Ministry of War were shocked by his sudden appointment, and even Xia Wanfeng, who served in the Ministry of Crime, was startled, and hurriedly rushed to the Ministry of War with his subordinates.

Xi Ze sat at the head of the military department, and listened attentively to Xia Wanfeng, who was standing in the hall, reported the relevant situation of the investigation in the past few days: "He Di does have dealings with the Shangshu of the original criminal department, and has been secretly colluding with the king of Qi, just as the prince guessed, most of the things about riding and shooting were done by the king of Qi!" Let's talk about King Zhao, the killers who killed King Zhao have already fled, and there is nothing special about the weapons and swordsmanship they use, this clue has not made any progress, but another clue has made a big discovery. Since entering the Fengyi Palace after welcoming the new year, after the emperor granted amnesty to the world, the two guards who were originally imprisoned in the prison and the head of Zhao Wangfu were released. But then, King Zhao was killed, we didn't dare to slack off, and immediately searched for the relevant criminals, however, only the two guards were arrested, and the head of King Zhao's mansion had already slipped away, and four or five days had passed, and there was still no trace of him. Besides, the two guards, under strict interrogation, still insisted that it was King Zhao who instructed them, and they refused to change their confessions even if they died. However, on closer inspection, I found that these two people have a suspicion, and this suspicion proves that they come from two different forces. ”

Xi Ze raised his eyebrows: "How do you know?" ”

"These two guards, one tall and one short, always look at the face of the short one first, and the short one answers, and the tall one does not answer when the short one does not answer, and the tall one does not answer. If the two were interrogated separately, the tall one would not answer anything, as if he had come to join in the fun, which was amazing! Think about it, if these two people really came from the same force, they should have received the same number of orders, how could this be the case? ”

After listening to Xia Wanfeng's explanation, Xi Ze brewed a little in his heart, and his eyes slowly burst out with a calculating cold light: "There is such a strange thing? It seems that the opponent's game has been secretly manipulated! Hum...... In that case, why don't we do what we plan and cause our opponents to dig their own graves! Wanfeng, you immediately make up what you have gained and spread rumors, this king wants to see how long the opponent can endure it? ”

"Yes!"

As a result, this strange story soon spread all over the streets and alleys of the imperial capital.

That night, Xi Ze stood in front of the window, looking at the clear moon outside the window, and said quietly: "The rumors have spread, I believe that King Qi will make a move soon!" Pray for the night, I'm afraid I'll have to bother you to go to the prison for a while! ”

Qi Ye, who was originally standing behind him with his eyes closed, heard the words, and slowly opened his eyes, his dark eyes were distant and profound: "King Qi? The truth has been clarified? Is it really the King of Qi? ”

"The truth doesn't matter!" Xi Ze turned to look at Qi Ye and said meaningfully, "The important thing is who is the one who has the last laugh!" Now that the father believes that the murderer is harming the king, he will attack the king of Zhao again, and it is obvious that he is going to the throne, that is to say, the father thinks that the murderer is among the kings! ”

Qi Ye closed his eyes, folded his hands on his sleeves, and said firmly: "So, the prince is going to frame King Qi now, right!" ”

"It's not a sham, but it's just a push!" Xi Ze said slowly, "Everyone thinks that all of them are aimed at this king, who would have thought that the person behind the scenes is actually the king of Qi?" I'm afraid that King Qi himself doesn't know that he is the target of the mastermind behind the scenes! ”

"Why King Qi?"

"Because as my father expected, the mastermind behind the scenes is really among the kings! In his opinion, King Qi is the easiest one to deal with! ”

Qi Ye was clear: "It seems that who is the mastermind behind this scene, the prince already has the answer in his heart!" ”

Xi Ze did not deny it: "He has no military power in his hands, and he does not have a powerful mother group behind him to support him, so he can be described as powerless and powerless, and if he wants to win the heir, the only thing he can rely on is to plot people's hearts!" ”

On the evening of March 20, there was finally movement in the Ouchi prison: someone had infiltrated the prison in an attempt to poison the two guards in the prison.

Xia Wanfeng rushed to the prison almost as soon as he heard the news, he looked at the suspect caught below, picked up the startled wood and slapped it on the table, and began to interrogate: "Who is in the hall, report your name!" ”

The suspect knelt up straight and replied, "Under Li Gan." ”

"Li Gan, this official asks you, who instructed you to come and poison the prisoners in prison?"

Li Gan kowtowed and said, "My lord Mingjian, there is no poison in the bottom!" ”

"Bold!" Xia Wanfeng remade the shocking wood again, "The evidence is here, and you dare to deny it, do you want to make the big punishment unsuccessful?" Don't hurry up and recruit from the truth! ”

With that, as soon as he raised his hand, the prison guard presented the evidence.

Li Gan looked at the two bowls of poisoned prison rice in front of him, and said hurriedly: "Lord Mingjian, the poison in the prison rice is not below, it is here to save people, Lord He can testify for him!" ”

He Di, who was standing aside, was shocked when he heard this: "Nonsense! I don't know you at all, so how could I have instructed you to come here? ”

Who knew that Li Gan was even more shocked than He Di: "Lord He, how can you say that you don't know the slave?" The slave is Li Gan, a distant relative of your slave, don't you remember the slave? If you hadn't signaled the guards to let you go tonight, the minions wouldn't have been able to enter this inner prison even if they had three heads and six arms! Lord He, please tell this lord quickly, the minion really didn't poison it! The minions are really here to save people! ”

He Di was so shocked by this sudden change that he was sweating: "Xia Shangshu, the lower official doesn't recognize this person, this person is framing the lower official!" The lower officials have nothing to do with him! ”

However, without waiting for Xia Wanfeng to speak, Li Gan preemptively argued: "Lord He, why do you say that? How can a slave frame you? Minions: There's the antidote you ordered your minions to send to prison! ”

Xia Wanfeng took it and saw that it was really an antidote, so she said without yin or yang: "Oh, Lord He is really a model of us, he has done good deeds without leaving his name, how can this official, as your top boss, turn a blind eye?" This official will go home and write a letter to the emperor, asking the emperor to praise you well! Haha......" However, as soon as his words changed, the color immediately became weird, "However, Lord He, if you can let people in to save people, can you also let people in and kill people?" When you think this big inner prison is your own backyard, if you want to enter, you can enter, and if you want to leave, you are not afraid of leaving a suspicion of dereliction of duty?! What's more, the two guards in this prison are involved in the cases of King Gong and King Zhao, and the Criminal Department is investigating the mastermind behind them. ”

He Di broke out in a cold sweat by Xia Wanfeng's series of words, however, the human and material evidence was "complete", and he was already at a loss for words.

The incident in the prison soon went away, and the next day, the king of Qi folded the bullet to impeach the member of the criminal department, Wailang Hedi.

Soon, He Di was imprisoned for abuse of power and involvement in the case of King Zhao.

It's just that he was still very conscious when he was sent to the prison, but for half a day, before he had time to be interrogated, he was confused, full of nonsense, and died violently in the prison that night.
