Chapter 399: The case suddenly changed

If I move, the enemy will move.

This belongs to a psychological game, to see who can't hold their breath, once the other party moves, there will inevitably be flaws, and if there are flaws, he will be exposed.

It's not a clever idea, but it's at least a one.

…………

Gong Yu was tired of winning and finally happened.

This kind of thing is impossible to hide from the people of the world, there are more than 10,000 palace people in Taiji Palace, and there are more than 1,000 people who have been inexplicably taken into prison these days.

The government and the opposition were shocked and discussed.

In the event of such a serious case, the courtiers did not dare to squeak, and the scene that used to be as noisy as a vegetable market at the court meeting was now silent.

The courtiers didn't even dare to speak too loudly, for fear of alarming the sensitive nerves of the Son of Heaven, and then waved their hands and spoke so loudly, you are a party who is tired of winning the case, spill it......

The common people may only regard this case as an after-dinner conversation, but the courtiers have all read books, and they know how fatal it will be if there is a witch curse in the palace, and how many heads will fall to the ground.

In all dynasties, whenever there is a witch case in the palace, at least thousands of heads are on the bottom, and there is no cap. This kind of case is the most likely to provoke the anger of the Son of Heaven.

Once the Son of Heaven is angry, then he doesn't have to care about any evidence and reasoning, whether he is guilty or innocent, even if he has a little bit of involvement in interpersonal relationships, it will be the end of robbing his family and killing his head.

After the news spread, everyone in the court was in danger, from the prime minister to the eight-rank petty officials, all of them were secretive.

The only good news is that the court meeting is finally much more harmonious, almost no one dares to quarrel, although the court meeting is not laughter, singing and dancing, at least not daring to speak loudly, for fear of frightening the heavens, especially well-behaved and sensible.

On the third day of the incident, Xu Jingzong and Shangguan Yi entered the palace and played the process of winning the case to Li Zhiyu.

Xu Jingzong and Shangguan Yi knew that the situation was serious and widely implicated, and they were quite cautious in their words.

Guo Fan and the others were detained in Dali Temple for three days, during which Xu Jingzong was arraigned eight times and tortured four times, so it can be said that he exhausted all means to obtain their confessions.

However, Guo Fan and the others also knew the seriousness of the matter, and no matter how many punishments they received, they still gritted their teeth and did not let go, insisting that they were framed.

They knew very well that this matter could never be admitted, and once they were tortured, they might be able to avoid the pain in front of them, but their lives were lost even to the last chance of life.

Gritting his teeth is just to survive, when people are surviving, their willpower is still very firm, even if these two people who don't look like heroes at all, in order to live, they also bear the torture of the torture tools of Dali Temple.

In the Anren Palace, Li Zhi glared at Xu Jingzong and Shangguan Yi dissatisfiedly, and said, "Three days have passed, and I haven't gotten anything, this is how the two of you do things?" ”

Xu Jingzong's face was ashamed, and he lowered his head and said: "Your Majesty forgives the sin, the minister has tried his best, and he has given all the grace and might, but he still has nothing, Guo Fan and the others have bitten themselves to death and have been wronged, and the minister really can't do anything about them." ”

Shangguan Yi glanced at Xu Jingzong, and an imperceptible snort came out of his nostrils.

Li Zhi's gaze looked at him and said, "What did Mr. Shangguan say?" ”

Shangguan Yi said in a deep voice: "Although the old minister didn't get the confession of Guo Fan and the others, some things don't need a confession, and they can be reasoned out one or two, as for the evidence and confession, hehe, in the face of such a serious and bad matter, the evidence is not so important." ”

Li Zhi said solemnly: "I would like to hear about it." ”

Shangguan Yi said slowly: "Let's not talk about anything else, the art of disgust must be done by Taoist priests, Guo Xingzhen has often been in and out of the palace in the past two years, so who is the person who often summons him?" The answer is actually quite easy to look up. ”

"Also, Fan Yunxian is the queen's chamberlain, and he is the most trusted by the queen, but it just so happened that those altar ascension weapons, puppet villains, and His Majesty's birthday talisman paper were found in Fan Yunxian's residence."

After Li Zhi was stunned, his eyes gradually sank, and he frowned and thought for a long time.

Xu Jingzong next to him was shocked when he heard this, and threw a frightened gaze at Shangguan Yi.

Isn't this old thing going to die? He dared to say this in front of the Son of Heaven, and he didn't know how serious the consequences were.

This is a hint that the Son of Heaven is abolished!

Shangguan Yi was expressionless, not feeling at all how serious he had said.

Li Zhi was also taken aback, and his expression suddenly hesitated.

After the incident, Li Zhi did have suspicions about Empress Wu, and he did have a defensive heart for her, but he was abolished...... He didn't think about it.

Perhaps, deep in Li Zhi's heart, he still has a lingering affection for Wu Meiniang, who wrote "Ruyi Niang" in Ganye Temple.

People who are in love can't forget their feelings, and the once beautiful memories have left a deep imprint in his heart, although time has passed, the person in front of him is no longer the person he was back then.

But she is the most important woman in his life after all.

At that time, the bright moon was there, and it was back from the clouds.

The monarch and the minister were silent for a long time, and Li Zhi said slowly: "What does Mr. Shangguan mean that the queen is involved in the case?" ”

Shangguan Yi said in a deep voice: "The old minister didn't mean that, the old minister just speculated that there are two possibilities for Gong Yu to win the case, one is that Guo Fan and the others are telling the truth, they are indeed framed by someone, and the mastermind is the queen." The second is that Guo Fan and the others themselves are the masterminds, and they hide from the queen that they are tired of His Majesty's actions. ”

Xu Jingzong, who was frightened and sweating profusely, hurriedly added: "The minister thinks that what Mr. Shangguan said is very true, the queen is already the lord of the harem, and the minister said something taboo, in the huge Taiji Palace, the queen has no enemies." ”

"She has secured the position of the queen, if it is about motives, she has no need to be tired of trying to kill Your Majesty, if Your Majesty has something unspeakable, the queen's situation will inevitably take a sharp turn, so the minister thinks that the queen is innocent."

Shangguan Yi's lips twitched a few times, as if he wanted to say something, but Xu Jingzong had been quietly observing him, and when he saw that Shangguan Yi was about to speak, Xu Jingzong immediately threw a warning look at him.

Nima, you old thing, don't bother me if you want to die, I'm still sitting next to you.

Li Zhi leaned back, and his face showed an expression of relief or loss.

The person who fell into the mud of the court with half of his body was too deeply bound to speak and act, and he hesitated step by step.

At this moment, a eunuch hurriedly ran outside the palace gate, bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, Dali Siqing has an urgent matter, Guo Xingzhen and Fan Yunxian have confessed!" ”

The three monarchs and ministers in the hall were startled, and sat up straight at the same time.

Li Zhi said in a deep voice: "Say, who is the mastermind?" ”

The eunuch lowered his head and said: "Guo Fan and the others said that they were bought by the two princesses of Yiyang and Xuancheng in the court, so they were disgusted with winning and cursed the Son of Heaven." ”

Li Zhi was stunned for a long time when he heard this, and then his body softened, and he sat back heavily, his face pale.
