Chapter 389: Inducing a Confession
"Yes, the military department ......"
Luckily, at least he could speak again.
Qi Tai nodded and said,
"Who am I, do you know?"
"Yes, yes...... My lord,"
Lu Zhen replied vaguely.
Qi Tai nodded again, said in his heart, he wanted this effect, and asked,
"Your Royal Highness King Yan often runs to the streets of Beiping Mansion and pretends to be crazy and stupid, right?"
"Yes, yes, my lord......"
Lu Zhen was still delirious.
Qi Tai waved his hand and motioned to the clerk next to him who had copied the confession to start recording,
"Then, King Yan will be very calm when he returns to the palace, right?"
"Yes, yes......"
Lu Zhen's head hung lower.
Qi Tai was secretly happy in his heart and asked,
"So, His Royal Highness King Yan's madness is just shown to outsiders, but there is no such sign when he returns to the mansion, you listen, did he talk to his subordinates normally in the mansion, did he have it?"
"Welcome..."
The other party is weak and authentic.
Qi Tai's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said,
"Okay, listen, His Royal Highness King Yan is actually pretending to be crazy, isn't it?!"
"Yes, yes...... Adult ......"
The voice of the reply was as low as the cry of a mosquito.
Finally hearing the answer he wanted, Qi Tai slapped the table with a high heart, turned his head and asked,
"Have you written it all down?"
"Go back to your lordship, write it down."
The scrivener replied.
Qi Tai took it and looked at it,
"Great, come on, take this man down, find a place for him to sleep well, and then clean up and let him go."
"Yes!"
His subordinates dragged Lu Zhen away.
Qi Tai took the confession in his hand and read it carefully, and then couldn't wait to rush to the East Pavilion, but Zhu Yunwen was nowhere to be seen, only Huang Zicheng and Fang Xiaoru were discussing the final agenda of changing the official system. Seeing him coming, Huang Zicheng smiled and said,
"Why is Lord Qi free, didn't he find any conclusive evidence?"
"Where is Your Majesty?"
Qi Tai ignored the two of them and asked.
Fang Xiaoru glanced at the confession in his hand and said,
"Your Majesty went back to the Qianqing Palace to be quiet and think about what to do next."
"Naturally, it's the domain of King Yan of Chipping, do you still need to ask?"
Throwing down such a sentence, Qi Tai walked towards the Qianqing Palace without looking back.
Although he is a close minister, this is the inner palace after all, and Qi Tai can only enter and exit in the permitted places, so he still has to be notified by the inner servant before entering.
At this time, Zhu Yunwen was lying on his back on the dragon bed, with his hands behind his head, looking at the thick beams in a daze.
He remembered that he was here a few years ago, he studied with the imperial grandfather and the fourth uncle, remembered that the fourth uncle cooked tea for everyone, remembered the childlike embarrassment that the fourth uncle would show because he couldn't answer the emperor's question, and remembered that he and the fourth uncle accompanied the imperial grandfather to the garden for a walk, and the mood at that time was really relaxed. Although he was in the palace and had to be attentive, in retrospect, that time was the most alive time he ever spended.
But now, the imperial grandfather is no longer there, and the fourth uncle who is far away in Beiping is crazy, what is he doing, but he hopes to get the respect and recognition of his uncles, and hopes to live up to the imperial grandfather's heavy court to govern the Ming Dynasty, but now why do you feel that the current negotiation seems to be different from what you imagined......
"Your Majesty, Lord Qi Tai, the secretary of the Ministry of War, is waiting outside the door to ask for a meeting."
The voice of the chamberlain was heard.
Zhu Yunwen frowned and said in his heart, Qi Tai, this guy has almost disappeared, what is he doing now, so he said impatiently,
"Let him in."
"Yes."
The chamberlain went out.
There was not much time, Qi Tai walked in quickly from the outside, knelt on the ground and said,
"Minister Qitai greets Your Majesty."
"Flatten,"
Zhu Yunwen sat up from the bed and said,
"I haven't seen Qi Qing in a row, what have you been busy with all along?"
"Your Majesty, here is new evidence about King Yan's deception and bad intentions, please take a look at it."
Qi Tai kowtowed upward, and at the same time, presented Lu Zhen's confession with both hands.
Zhu Yunwen frowned when he heard this, and said in his heart, why is it here again, glared at him and said,
"Qi Qing found something again."
I watched it from beginning to end, but this time, I was even more impatient in my heart,
"What's going on?"
"Your Majesty,"
Qi Tai saw that Zhu Yunwen's face was wrong, and said busily,
"This is a fact that the people in his house confessed to themselves, King Yan's madness is just for others to see, in fact, he is not crazy at all, isn't this the evidence of his bad intentions?"
"I just understand why you want the Yan Wangfu to send an envoy to Beijing,"
Zhu Yunwen suddenly sneered,
"Do you think I can't see the end of this confession? Why haven't you shown up all these days, have you forcibly detained other people's envoys? In this confession, it seems that you have been deliberately guided to get it, what did you do to the envoy of the Yan Palace?! ”
"Huh?"
What he did was suddenly broken by the emperor, and Qi Tai was also unexpected, and he was busy.
"Your Majesty, the minister didn't do anything, but I saw him that day and left him to chat for a while......"
"After chatting for a while, we talked about confessions?"
Zhu Yunwen interrupted him and said,
"If you really want to prove that the fourth uncle is going to rebel, show me some decent evidence, don't use this kind of thing to coax me! Don't give me a back down yet! ”
While throwing the so-called confession back in front of him, Qi Tai was speechless, and hurriedly picked up the piece of paper on the ground and said "The minister retreats", and escaped, still wondering in his heart, how could this emperor not believe it.
How did he know what Zhu Yunwen thought-
It is true that Zhu Yunwen is cowardly and benevolent, but he is not stupid, he personally installed an eyeliner like Ge Cheng in the Yanwang Mansion, if the fourth uncle is different, then Ge Cheng will naturally report to himself, and can he use Qi Tai to obtain this specious so-called "evidence" by such indiscriminate means.
Where did Qi Tai know this, so he sighed and went to sit in the east pavilion......
And Lu Zhen was tossed several times before he was released, although he was wronged in his heart, he didn't dare to do anything, so he had to endure it silently and go back to the Yanwang Mansion in Beiping, which was considered a bad deal.
And Zhu Gaochi also found that his expression was a little wrong and his spirit was insufficient, so he asked,
"Sir, what's the matter? Didn't you encounter something unpleasant in the capital? ”
"No, no."
Lu Zhen didn't dare to tell the truth, although he was already delirious at the time, but after all, he still remembered what the Lord of the Military Department was asking at the beginning, which was about His Royal Highness King Yan. Later, he didn't know what he had done, so he let him go, so he really suspected that he had betrayed the order.
Gao Chi looked at him and asked with concern,
"But my husband's face doesn't look good."
"Oh, back to His Royal Highness, it's because I ran all the way to the capital and had some stomach discomfort, so I ...... it"
Lu Zhen hurriedly covered up.
