Chapter 22: Seeing the Trick (4)

"That's nature." Duan Shilang snorted coldly, slightly triumphant, "The military affairs above, as well as the top-secret matters of King Heng when he was on duty in the fourth department, there is no omission. ”

Ye Heng slowly bowed his head: "Not to mention that you haven't obtained ironclad evidence like secret letters, but when you ask about confidential matters, are you sure that what you have investigated is true?" ”

Duan Shilang was full of arrogance: "How does King Heng want to quibble?" ”

"No need to quibble." Ye Heng put the booklet on the plate, "Please read the four parts, and discuss the things contained in the book after correspondingly with the secret file." ”

Duan Lang saw that his eyes were calm, and there was no trace of panic, so he had doubts at the moment, but he had always been cautious in handling things, not to mention the side, he had checked the secrets leaked by the Criminal Department, so he dared to send them to the front of the palace.

The officials of the four ministries carefully examined the contents of the book and put them back in their place. Only then did Xiqi Guojun ask, "But is it confirmed?" ”

The official secretary replied respectfully: "What is contained in the book is indeed the important matter of the four departments. ”

As soon as these words came out, the audience was in an uproar, and some people originally thought that what was contained in this booklet might not be true, but at this moment, they all showed surprise, and their eyes looked at Ye Heng with a little more pity.

Even if it has been proved that what is contained in the booklet is true, and it is obtained from the Tanglin spies, then the charge of Yeheng will be confirmed.

Collaborating with the enemy and treason, that is a capital crime!

"Not to mention the side, just the list of detailed works contained in the Ministry and hidden in various countries, once it is spread, the consequences will be unimaginable!" Duan Lang tried his best to suppress the smugness in his heart, and said to the night: "King Heng, now, you can confess your guilt." ”

"I don't recognize it." The indifferent voice was wrapped in an aura that made people dare not disobey, and it swept through the entire hall at the moment it was issued, and it was clear that the incriminating evidence was conclusive, but Ye Heng's majestic appearance made everyone can't help but begin to question the testimony of the Ministry of Officials.

Only Xiqi Guojun forcibly restrained the strangeness in his heart, and said with a look of concern: "Even if the sixth brother doesn't admit it, there must be evidence, take it out, and you can return your innocence." ”

This is a sincere statement, but if you think about it, you can't believe it.

Ye Heng was trapped in Luoyan Courtyard, and it was inconvenient to act, and it was impossible for him to come up with evidence to prove his innocence at the moment.

Xiqi Guojun's move is undoubtedly a cat crying mouse fake mercy.

Ye Heng raised his eyes to look at him, a pair of eyes as deep as the deep sea had hidden all his emotions, and he said in his usual cold voice: "Your Majesty has been favored for many years, how could the minister make a rebellious move?" ”

Duan Lang didn't want to let it go, so he stepped forward and said: "King Heng also knows that His Majesty attaches great importance to brotherhood, but he repays virtue with resentment, and cares about His Majesty's affection in vain, and now he wants to use brotherly affection to coerce?" King Heng, you are treason and rebellion, not a family matter! ”

Ye Heng turned his eyes to look at him, but at a glance, Duan Lang's arrogance had been suppressed, and he said coldly: "I think the official book should not finish speaking, why should Duan Shilang be so anxious?" ”

Duan Lang was stunned when he heard this, and a bad feeling secretly arose in his heart.

The official secretary coughed lightly, and then said slowly: "Indeed, the ministers have carefully checked the things contained in the booklet, and they are all confidential contents of each department, but ......"

As he spoke, he paused again, but he was anxious for others, and Xiqi Guojun urged: "But how? ”

The Ministry of Officials Shangshu replied respectfully: "But these confidential information is already old information, most of them have been solved, or abandoned, such as the production method of the new weapons of the Ministry of War, there have been newer weapons to replace, the old weapons have also appeared and eliminated for many years, some of the lists of the Ministry of Officials hidden in various countries have been recalled, and the follow-up implication is to be cleaned up, and the household department is ......."

Every time the official secretary said something, Duan Lang's face became ugly, and everyone understood at this time that what this booklet contained was old and useless news, even if it was made public, it would be no big deal.

Duan Lang took a sharp breath, swept his angry eyes over the witness who had passed out on the ground, and then slowly recovered his mind, and said loudly: "It may not be that King Heng doesn't know the situation and mistransmitted the news, and don't say this, even if it is an old thing, it is a state secret in the end, and King Heng's treason is already obvious." ”

When the military department Shangshu heard this, he said with displeasure: "The old-style weapons contained in this book were designed by King Heng himself, and the new weapons were also handed over to the soldiers by the military department after he secretly improved them in the army, how could he not know!" ”

The servant of the ministry coughed lightly and said: "The withdrawal of this batch of lists was also designed and arranged by King Heng himself to deal with the aftermath. ”

An official from the household department also stepped forward to refute Duan Lang's complaint, but the criminal department remained silent.

Su Qianqian couldn't help but ask: "Three of the four departments confirm that what is contained in the booklet is the old thing, what about the criminal department, could it be that only the news of the criminal department is true?" ”

Duan Lang looked at Su Qianqian coldly, and the uneasiness in his heart finally sat down, and at the same time, he even had a thought that even he was shocked and scared, Su Qianqian's pleasant voice like a mountain spring came into his ears again: "Duan Shilang is in the Criminal Department, and he personally handles this case, is it ......"

The rest was unspoken, but the people present were all old oilmen who had been in the officialdom for many years, and how could they not hear what they wanted.

Could it be that he made this booklet himself and cut the stolen goods to King Heng?

The other three pieces of news are wrong, but the Criminal Department is personally managed by him, and this news will not be false.

Duan Lang didn't notice it, and immediately stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty is clear, the minister will never falsify evidence to slander people's innocence!" ”

Xiqi Guojun can't see the clue, the evidence handed over by Duan Lang can no longer prove that Yeheng is suspected of collaborating with the enemy, and the secret way to spread the message is afraid that it is only a family heirloom as Su Qianqian said, and there are only the words of witnesses left, but ......

The assassin had the intention to kill him, and it was hard to guarantee that he would not deliberately mislead, and even if he didn't, the witness's words would not be credible.

Xiqi Guojun was silent, but Ye Heng spoke first, and his voice was not slow: "Whether the message is a secret road or a postal route, it can be ascertained from the household department, and the so-called wild goose has left traces, just investigate the witness in depth, and you can find out what you want." It's just that I'm afraid this matter is not suitable for Duan Shilang to handle anymore. ”

Shangshu of the Criminal Department is a thin old man, with a green shadow under his eyes, he has not been resting well in the past few days, he has never said a word, but at this time he suddenly stepped forward and said to the monarch of Xiqi: "This incident happened in the Criminal Department, Weichen has a great responsibility, please Your Majesty Rongchen will be punished." ”

This remark immediately aroused the curiosity of the court.

The Duan family is powerful and plays a pivotal role in the court, and since Duan Lang was promoted to a squire, the Criminal Department has been fully controlled by him, and the Shangshu of the Criminal Department has become an ornament.

This ornament suddenly spoke, and the merit was to be atoned, and everyone was curious again.

But seeing him straighten up and wave behind him, an official came to him with a few files, and the Shangshu of the Criminal Department stretched out his thin arms, trembling and holding these files in his arms, and slowly walked to the Xiqi monarch, with determination in his old voice: "The booklet just now, Wechen has also read it, unlike the other three adults, Wechen can't see the truth or falsehood, but he can see the things next to it, yes, ask someone to sort out these files, take them and ask Your Majesty to take a look." ”

The chamberlain got the order, stepped forward and took the file away, Xiqi Guojun was puzzled, and hurriedly flipped through it after taking it, but still couldn't see the clue: "This ......"
