Chapter 113: The fate of Cheng Xiong and Zhou Guanghe
Sure enough, in the next second, I heard Emperor Zhou say, "I heard that there are assassins here?" ”
Mu Zhao rolled his eyes again, what a clumsy excuse.
Then she followed the others and saluted respectfully.
Emperor Zhou's eyes looked around everyone's bodies, "It's all here, it's so lively, let's get up, what's going on?" ”
After the second prince stood up, he said to him, "Father, there are no assassins here, only two thieves have been caught. ”
"Oh? Where? ”
"It is Cheng Xiong, the official of the Ministry entrusted by his father, and there is another one, Zhou Guanghe, a courtier favored by his father."
Emperor Zhou's gaze swept over the two of them, and his voice sank, "What happened?" ”
The second prince handed the letter in his hand to Emperor Zhou, and then said: "In the humble opinion of his ministers, it was Zhou Guanghe who heard that he was promoted and that he heard that the officials were lustful, so he offered him a beauty and wanted to get a good official position." ”
Emperor Zhou scolded angrily, "Actually buying and selling official positions, Zhou Guanghe!" How daring! ”
Zhou Guanghe, who was still hanging from the tree, whined and begged for mercy with his eyes.
Emperor Zhou continued to scold, "I am a person who cherishes talents, you have real talent and real learning, I am also reusing you, your official position in the court has not been determined, because there is an accident in the court these days, there are too many vacant positions, I want to pick a suitable one for you, but I didn't expect you to ......."
Zhou Guanghe was stunned, his eyes stunned.
He shook his head frantically, his mouth whining.
Emperor Zhou waved his hand impatiently, "Woo woo is annoying, take it down, you will never be hired." ”
Zhou Guanghe struggled anxiously.
But a couple of hidden guards appeared and pulled him out.
Emperor Zhou looked at Cheng Xiong again.
Cheng Xiong begged for mercy again and again, "Your Majesty spares your life, I ......"
He was in a hurry, "The reason why I received this letter is to find out Zhou Guanghe's true character, I ..... I didn't do anything to that girl, and Your Majesty could find someone to examine her. ”
Xia Yan's face turned pale instantly, she looked at Cheng Xiong in disbelief, she didn't expect Cheng Xiong to be so shameless.
Then she felt a warm touch on the back of her hand.
She looked up and saw Mu Zhao's reassuring eyes.
Xia Yan's heart was miraculously settled.
Mu Zhao was not worried at all.
Since the second prince has no way to get benefits from Cheng Xiong, he must pull Cheng Xiong into the water.
Sure enough, in the next second, I heard the second prince say: "Lord Cheng, you didn't succeed, it's all because we came in time, and if we come one step later, that girl will not be chaste, after all, you have taken off your clothes." ”
Emperor Zhou scolded angrily, "Cheng Xiong! You're a bully! ”
Cheng Xiong slumped to the ground, "Your Majesty...... Your Majesty, the minister is really ......"
"I don't want to listen to your quibbles anymore." He turned his head and shouted, "Tang Wenkang." ”
Tang Wenkang stood up, "The minister is here." ”
"Take him down, try him for any other crimes, and punish me for several crimes."
Tang Wenkang said confidently: "Your Majesty, someone went to Dali Temple to complain a few days ago. ”
Emperor Zhou's eyes flashed with impatience, "Oh? Why did you go to Dali Temple to complain? ”
Tang Wenkang said: "He thinks that the minister copied the house of the household secretary before, so he dared to take care of the family affairs of the ministry of the minister." ”
The impatience in Emperor Zhou's eyes was less, and when he said this, it seemed that Cheng Xiong had committed something.
Tang Wenkang continued: "It's his second wife's maiden brother, and he feels that his sister is dying strangely, because the second lady's health is very good, and it is impossible for her to die suddenly. ”
Emperor Zhou looked at him with a smile, "What did you find?" ”
"The officials are still in their house, and they buried the second lady hastily, and did not set up a tablet, I obtained the consent of the second lady's mother's brother, and asked the second lady to open the coffin for an autopsy, and the result of the test was that she was abused and died."
Emperor Zhou cooperated with the anger, "The second lady of the Shangshu family of the Ministry of Officials, who will be abused?" ”
The minister saw that her body was full of whiplashes and wax oil, and her body was ...... And also....... Offspring liquid. ”
Where did the people present not understand this?
Emperor Zhou looked at Cheng Xiong in disbelief, "Cheng Xiong! You really are! ”
Cheng Xiong's face was already like ashes, "The minister knows that he is wrong." ”
Emperor Zhou was heartbroken, "Do you know it's wrong? Your second lady is also a person who has a brother's pain, since you have raised her as a second lady, why don't you know how to love her? ”
"Your Majesty......"
Emperor Zhou closed his eyes and waved his hand, "Tang Wenkang." ”
Tang Wenkang arched his hand, "Your Majesty." ”
"Murder pays for life."
Tang Wenkang replied heavily, "Yes." ”
Cheng Xiong suddenly returned to the light and shouted fiercely, "Your Majesty! Your Majesty! I beg Your Majesty to spare the minister this time, the minister will never dare again! ”
Emperor Zhou raised his hand, and several guards came up, covered Cheng Xiong's mouth, and took him out.
Although Mrs. Cheng had already decided to let Cheng Xiong suffer, and even thought that he would die, but at this time he was really going to die, and Mrs. Cheng's body still softened.
Mu Zhao reacted very quickly and jumped over and helped her.
Emperor Zhou heard the movement here and turned around, "Why is Miss Zhao here?" ”
"Back to Your Majesty, the courtiers couldn't sleep, went out for a walk, met a suspicious person, the courtiers caught him, under the courtier's questioning, he told the courtiers that there was to be a shady deal here, it was Zhou Guanghe who wanted to give the beauty to Cheng Xiong, I hurriedly went to find Mrs. Cheng, and then came here together. I never thought that the courtiers would watch a big drama when they came. ”
In the end, Mu Zhao's voice was a little playful.
Emperor Zhou smiled, "You think this is a play, then Zhou Guanghe will not be allowed to enter the government in his life, and Cheng Xiong is indeed going to die." ”
Mu Zhao said, "Your Majesty said, killing people pays for life, Cheng Xiong's death is not unjust, Zhou Guanghe deceived his superiors and subordinates, His Majesty just didn't let him enter the office, and the punishment was indeed lighter, Your Majesty still cherishes his talents." ”
Emperor Zhou pretended to be angry and said, "You girl, you dare to speculate about my intentions." ”
Mu Zhao shouted coquettishly. "Uncle Huang~"
The second prince answered, "Erchen led people to inspect and heard movement here, so I came to take a look, it can be seen that today's incident is thanks to Mu Zhao." ”
"Oh, and what's going on?" Emperor Zhou smiled, "Okay, okay, since it's thanks to Zhao Girl, what reward do you want Zhao Girl?" ”
Mu Zhao thought about it seriously, "Then please ask Your Majesty to reward me with more meat to eat tomorrow." ”
Emperor Zhou was slightly stunned, and then laughed, "Hahaha..... Okay, I'll give you all the delicious meat. ”
Mu Zhao was oiled by his phrase "little gluttonous cat", and he got goosebumps.
Fortunately, Emperor Zhou immediately said: "Okay, it's not early today, don't be leading people outside, go back to sleep." ”
When it came to leading people, he deliberately glanced at Su Mi.
Then he glanced at Yun Wuluo again.
Yun Wuluo's face was expressionless, and his eyes didn't fluctuate.
Mu Zhao secretly smacked his tongue, he deserved to be a nine-thousand-year-old person, even if he was already soaked in the vinegar vat at this time, he could not show a penny on his face.
