The Marquis of Zhengyuan died for the country, and the prince of the Marquis of Zhengyuan may have been assassinated in front of the capital, and now he has no one to die or a corpse.

What was even more shocking was the distress letter from Yu Chengxuan, a letter begging for a letter.

Jing Zhaoyin can't hide this matter from adults, this matter is too big, not to mention that he is Jing Zhaoyin, even if he is the secretary of the Criminal Department, he can't hide this matter.

The matter of the daughter of the third room of the Marquis of Zhengyuan was almost beaten to death by the second room, after hastily interrogating the matter to the adult, he wanted to put Yu Shuxing in prison, but he had not ordered it yet, and he had already interceded later, and the matter was not conclusive now, and the heart of the lord was not on this matter.

Someone pleaded and let Yu Shuxing go first, and warned him that he couldn't go anywhere now, so he could only go to the Marquis of Zhengyuan's Mansion and wait for the yamen to verify and open the court.

The case has been accepted, and it can't be tried without trial, and it is also related to the distress letter of the Marquis of Zhengyuan, even if he wants to withdraw it.

Xiang went to see the criminal department secretary afterwards.

Shangshu of the Criminal Department knew about this matter and wanted to lock the news first, but the news had already spread with Yu Lanyun's drumming and complaining, so he just waited to investigate the matter first.

In the court, the emperor's spirit was not bad, and after reading the excerpts of several courtiers, the matter was discussed.

The chamberlain was about to retire from the court, and suddenly a military general stood up in front of him: "Your Majesty, if you have something to do for your ministers, please ask the emperor to be the master of the prince of Zhengyuan." ”

In a word, the emperor, who was originally loosely relaxed, was clever, and his spirit was immediately raised.

The chamberlain went over and took the fold and presented it to the imperial book.

The emperor opened it and looked at it, his face sank suddenly, "The prince of Zhengyuan was stabbed?" ”

"Your Majesty, I heard that yesterday the concubine of the third room of the Marquis Zhengyuan Mansion went to the Yamen of Jingzhao Yin to beat the drum for the prince of the Marquis of Zhengyuan." The military general said excitedly, "Marquis Zhengyuan has been a hero all his life, and now there is only this son under his knees, but there are still people who can't tolerate him, and they want to kill him, and the minister feels that this must be a trick of the Southern Tang Dynasty." ”

"The Marquis of Zhengyuan fought on the border back then, and the people of the Southern Tang Dynasty hated it to the bone, and now that the Marquis of Zhengyuan is gone, he still does not let go of the Marquis of Zhengyuan's mansion, please ask the emperor to investigate this matter clearly, and give the Marquis Zhengyuan a justice." Another military general stepped forward from the ranks.

"Your Majesty, if the ministers fight on the battlefield, if the old and young in the house end up like this, how can this make the courtiers feel at ease?" Another veteran walked out tremblingly, he had suffered a lot of injuries before, and now it is not convenient to move around like this, in the past, he basically did not use the court, and today I don't know how.

The emperor raised his hand, and the chamberlain hurriedly went over to support him, not letting him kneel, this old general may not be able to get up when he kneels, and he is the only veteran of this age.

"Give a seat." The emperor said.

Another chamberlain came over and brought a chair and helped the old general to sit down.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." The old general arched his hand and thanked the emperor.

"Old General Zheng is unwell, didn't let you rest in the mansion, why did you hold on to the court?" The emperor said kindly, this old general and the old Xuanping Marquis protected the Great Jin Dynasty and the two emperors, and they worked hard.

"Your Majesty, the minister knows about the expedition to the distant marquis...... It hurts for the minister. General Zheng hit his chest with his hand, looking pained, "The Marquis of Zhengyuan was originally younger than the minister, but he died at a young age, and then leaving orphans and widows is already miserable, but the Marquis Zhengyuan's mansion is on fire...... Right now...... Now there is only one young son left, but there is still ...... spare"

General Zheng burst into tears: "So...... How can you rest in peace for the ministers, and ...... for the ministers"

"The old general's body is important, and besides, this matter may not be true, I will ask about it." The emperor said gently, and he had twelve points of patience for this old general Zheng.

Shangshu of the Criminal Department walked out from the front of the rank and took out the prepared fold: "Your Majesty, there is something to do for the ministers, and it is the matter of the Marquis of Zhengyuan." ”

The chamberlain took it and presented it to the Imperial Clerk's case.

The emperor saw it, and his brows furrowed: "The book of the criminal department, how is this matter being investigated, is it true?" ”

"This matter, Weichen is still investigating, Jing Zhaoyin sent this matter to the minister, and Weichen still doesn't know whether it's true or not." The criminal department Shangshu said calmly.

"I don't know if it's true or not? Now everyone outside is saying that the distress letter of the Marquis of Zhengyuan has been delivered to you, but you are indifferent. Seeing that Shangshu of the Criminal Department was so calm, a military general couldn't help but stare angrily, "Everyone in the capital knows, but Lord Shangshu said that he is still investigating, and he doesn't know whether it's true or not. ”

"Your Majesty, this must be the trick of the Southern Tang Dynasty." Another military general gritted his teeth and said.

The two families are now in peace talks, but the soldiers don't believe in the Southern Tang Dynasty very much.

"Your Majesty, the Southern Tang Dynasty is a villain, going back on its word, and peace talks are not advisable." A military general of the main battle faction jumped out, the Great Jin and Southern Tang Dynasty were ready to negotiate peace, many generals were very unconvinced, today's Southern Tang Dynasty is not like a good one, the two sides are not only fighting, but secretly planting a lot of spies.

"Your Majesty, this is a matter of the Marquis of Zhengyuan's Mansion, the most important thing now is to find out if it is true, as for the rest, just look for it slowly."

"Yes, this matter has nothing to do with Nantang, the two families are going to make peace, His Royal Highness King Yi has gone to Nantang, and it is very bad to have chaos again at this time."

"The case has to be investigated, and the matter has to be asked, but you don't have to be so impatient, listening to the wind is the rain."

……

One by one, Wenchen stood up from the steps, persuaded and persuaded him, and said that he was unwilling to involve this matter in the peace talks with the Southern Tang Dynasty, and the peace talks had basically been completed.

"What does it mean to listen to the wind is the rain, you Wenchen only know how to say this and that, look at the situation of the Marquis of Zhengyuan, there is no one who sighs?"

"The generals are all injured and have made meritorious contributions outside, all of you are these people who throw schoolbags, peace talks all day long, peace talks, see what the peace talks are like now? Will the Southern Tang Dynasty let go of the soldiers who recruited Yu at the beginning? ”

There were several generals who said sadly and indignantly.

The emperor stretched out his hand and pressed his head, and as soon as he talked about the matter of Nantang, the two sides quarreled so much that he had a headache when he heard it.

These generals can't be better, obviously this matter has passed, and they are still discussing, they were originally going to retire from the dynasty, and they are in a good mood today, but they will be tossed a few times, their hearts are depressed, headaches and irritability, and the Zhengyuan Marquis Mansion is the Zhengyuan Marquis Mansion again, as if this matter is going on.

Every now and then, this comes up.

There was a lot of arguing below, and the emperor frowned and said: "Zhong Aiqing, the rights and wrongs of this matter have not been verified yet, but this matter of the prince of Zhengyuan Hou asking for help is indeed true, but this letter has been in place for a while, I am afraid that I may not be able to find it immediately if I look for it now, Zhongqing can rest assured, if this matter is related to the Southern Tang Dynasty, I will not spare the Southern Tang Dynasty." ”

This sounds fair, even if the generals are full of anger, they have to press it first.

It was the old general who spoke: "Your Majesty, can you read the letter of the Marquis of Zhengyuan?" ”

"That's how it should be!" The emperor nodded and looked at the Shangshu of the Criminal Department.

Shangshu of the Criminal Department took out the blood-stained letter from his sleeve and handed it to the chamberlain, who took it and placed it on the bookcase, and the emperor looked at it.

The signature is Yu Chengxuan's seal, and the font is slightly tender and weak, which is in line with the identity of a boy who has been sick and weak for many years.

After reading the above content carefully, he nodded his hand, and the chamberlain respectfully took it, retreated to the old general's side, and delivered the letter to the old general.

"Old general, please see this letter...... It should look real. The emperor said lightly.

The old general took a look and his hand trembled slightly, "Your Majesty, this is ...... This is the letter of the Marquis of Zhengyuan, there was a letter from the Marquis of Zhengyuan in the old minister's mansion before, just a year ago, the old minister also specially sent someone to Jiangnan to see the Marquis of Zhengyuan, and he replied to the old minister at that time. ”

The letter said that he was recalled to Beijing by Mrs. Yu, and if he did not return, he would abolish the position of the prince, and he was intercepted and killed in front of the city gate, and he was almost killed, and found that someone had already waited for him to return to Beijing to prepare to intercept him, and there were already people in Jiangnan who had laid out, and when he turned around, he had no choice but to flee to the northwest, but there were still people chasing him, and he begged his grandfather's family to verify the matter, and quickly sent someone to save him......

"Your Majesty, the official Yu Wailang reported that he sent someone to Jiangnan, but Jiangnan couldn't find the prince of Zhengyuan Hou, and said that the Jiangnan government had sent someone to search for a few days, but there was no news, and he immediately looked for Jing Zhaoyin after returning to Beijing, hoping that Jing Zhaoyin would find the prince of Zhengyuan Houfu in the capital."

Shangshu of the Criminal Department said: "It is a coincidence that the daughter of the third room of the Marquis of Zhengyuan Mansion told the son of Yu Yuan Wailang that she killed her sister and deceived her uncle, so she brought this matter out." ”

It was just Yu Zhongyang's report that Yu Chengxuan disappeared, but it didn't make too many people suspicious, but this happened to be a coincidence, coupled with what the letter said, the old general suddenly raised his head: "Your Majesty, please check the Yuanhou Mansion." ”

"Old General, why is that?" The emperor was puzzled.

"Your Majesty, the Marquis of Zhengyuan entered the capital because of Mrs. Yu, why do other people also know, who doesn't want the Marquis of Zhengyuan to survive, or say that the Marquis of Zhengyuan is dead, who is good? Emperor...... Weichen felt that this matter was very strange. The old general shook the letter and said angrily.

"The prince of Zhengyuan didn't have an accident in the mansion." The emperor shook his hand and refused.

"Your Majesty, why is it so coincidental? Why did someone harm the Marquis of Zhengyuan, what does Yu Yuan Wailang mean, why did he go to the Yamen to report the loss, this dynasty stipulates that you can report the funeral if you don't see March, if the Marquis of Zhengyuan is lost, who will this title fall on? Old General Zheng said coldly.

He is old, and his body is not good, but his brain reaction is still there, as a general, if he can't find out clearly, I'm afraid he won't know how to die in the end, this point, sometimes it is faster than just playing with the brain.

"This ...... How can it be? "There is already subconscious opposition from the civil and military.

The old general's eyes widened: "How is it impossible, if you think this is impossible, can you dare to make a statement in front of the emperor?" ”

As soon as he heard it serious, this civil official immediately shrank his head, this matter has little to do with him, that is to say, but Concubine Ning's sister is Yu Zhongyang's wife, and many people know about it.

Seeing that there was going to be a quarrel below, the emperor was even more annoyed, this group of generals were fooling around all day long, it was really useless, the more time passed, the more painful his head was, and his hand was pressed on the bookcase: "This matter is being investigated by the Criminal Department, and the old general will go back to rest and wait for news!" ”

After speaking, he stood up, and the chamberlain shouted: "Retreat!" ”
