Volume 2 Kyoto Chapter 393 The face of the imperial court is greater than the sky

This is a killer move, and when the emperor saw this book of forgetfulness, the whole person obviously didn't feel very good.

After all, these are all crimes committed by some people, and these people are not ordinary people.

In the end, the Emperor slapped the Guilty Record on the table.

Tingwei Song Cang didn't know what was written on it, but just listening to Huang Zhang, he roughly understood.

If this sin is true, then the separation between Luo Chen and Dai Zong is about to be completed.

But Song Cang still didn't want to admit defeat so simply, in his opinion, even if the relationship between Luo Chen and Dai Zong was not as harmonious as the outside world rumored, it didn't prove that Luo Chen did not participate in the assassination.

"Song Cang, you go down first!" The Emperor said suddenly.

"This ......"

Song Cang originally wanted to resist again, but he didn't expect the emperor to let him retreat directly.

"Minister, retire!"

In the end, Song Cang still retreated unwillingly, Cen Shang, as the captain of the forbidden army, naturally knew when to leave, and as soon as Song Cang retreated, he also retreated.

At this moment, only the emperor, Gonggong Hong and Huang Zhang were left in the entire Fude Palace.

I saw the emperor speak: "Is this record of forgetting to be true? ”

I saw Huang Zhang shaking his head, nonsense, of course it's fake, how could he show it to the emperor if he really forgot to record, this is just his own blind writing!

Seeing Huang Zhang shaking his head, the emperor's eyes began to sharpen.

"You dare to deceive me?"

"Don't dare!" Huang Zhang immediately replied.

"Don't dare? Hmph, so how do you say that? ”

The emperor threw the record of forgetfulness at the feet of Huang Zhang, to be honest, when he first saw this record of forgetfulness, he was a little worried, after all, there are many people recorded on it, if you investigate it carefully, the impact will be too great.

The capital has become very sensitive because of the assassination of the two princes, if something happens at this moment, I am afraid that it will shake the foundation of his rule, which the emperor does not want to see, and after learning that this crime is false, he is also relieved.

But this also means that Huang Zhang was lying to him just now, which is a proper crime of deception!

"Father, son, this is also a last resort."

"As a last resort? I asked you to investigate the case, but I didn't let you engage in these false things! Come, tell me, what do you have to do? ”

"Erchen found out that this Luo Chen is indeed at odds with Dai Zong, and there is no rumored confidant in the world, this is all a forcible addition by Lord Song Cang Song in order to close the case, in order to divide the relationship between Luo Chen and Dai Zong, Erchen has no choice but to make this move!"

Hearing Huang Zhang's words, the emperor became curious.

"I don't understand, why do you have to keep this Luo Chen wholeheartedly?"

But he saw Huang Zhang said solemnly: "Back to my father, the son is not in Paul Chen, the son is protecting the face of the court." ”

As soon as he said this, the emperor's eyes immediately changed.

"Why?"

"Dai Zong colluded with the anti-thief army, the crime deserves death, if it is rumored that the former commander of the city defense camp is also related to the anti-thief army, then how can I save face in the court? Didn't it mean that my second brother didn't know anyone, and he appointed a thief to such an important position? Isn't that a shame? ”

"Hahahaha."

After Huang Zhang said this, the emperor suddenly burst out laughing.

For the emperor's inexplicable laughter, Huang Zhang was really a little puzzled.

"My emperor has such far-reaching insight, it is my father who has seen it before, well, you are right, the face of the court is greater, but Luo Chen's control is unfavorable, causing the rebels to take advantage of the situation, although there is no capital crime, he can no longer hold important positions, and pass on the decree to demote Luo Chen to a commoner."

"Whoa!"

Father-in-law Hong on the side nodded, then turned around and left.

Hearing the emperor's order, Huang Zhang leaned over and flattered: "Father is wise. ”

At the same time, the corners of Huang Zhang's mouth gradually rose.

In fact, from the very beginning, he didn't expect to be able to cut Luo Chen and Dai Zong clean, one was the commander, the other was the deputy commander, no matter what he did, it was impossible to cut it clean.

In this case, then Huang Zhang has found another way, sometimes, you don't need to prove his innocence, you just need to let others know that he can't be guilty.

Huang Zhang set up a bureau at the beginning and made Song Cang admit that Dai Zong had colluded with the anti-thief army, as long as he admitted this, then Luo Chen would be saved.

After all, Luo Chen represents the imperial court, and colluding with the anti-thief army is to slap the face of the imperial court!

It's a pity that Song Cang didn't realize this, he just blindly wanted to bind Luo Chen and Dai Zong, but ignored the more important aspects.

Of course, did you say that Dai Zong and the anti-thief army colluded?

Naturally, it's not clear, all this is just a bureau set up by Huang Zhang.

Whether it is the anti-thief army found in the villa, as well as the letter and those turbans, they are all bureaus set up by Huang Zhang, and this bureau is not expressed by Huang Zhang, but by Cen Shang, the commander of the forbidden army, and the convincing degree is different.

The ones who laid out these bureaus were naturally Fan Lingfeng and Ban Hong beside Huang Zhang, if they were allowed to make these small moves, then they would definitely not disappoint Huang Zhang.

Ever since Huang Zhang was hinted at Dai Zong's corpse that day, his whole mind has changed.

If he is obsessed with the pursuit of the truth, I am afraid that the day he digs up the truth, people will disappear with the truth.

So Huang Zhang changed his mind, in this Kyoto, the truth is not important, what matters is how much influence you can have!

If you want to expand your influence and save Luo Chen, it is very necessary to use the forgetfulness record given to him by Luo Yingying to control those officials.

Therefore, this reversal of the case seems to have found the truth, but in fact, it is just a means for Huang Zhang to save Luo Chen.

Seeing that the matter had been resolved, Huang Zhang was about to step down, but was retained by the emperor.

"Emperor, this Gyeonggi assassination case has ended, but now that the commander of the city defense battalion has been demoted, and the deputy commander has betrayed and disappeared, who do you think is the right person to be the commander of this city defense battalion?"

Hearing the emperor's sudden question, Huang Zhang remembered what Song Cang had told him before, that the emperor was going to let him take the position of commander of the city defense battalion.

But right now, he should pretend to be stupid, he can't say that he is the most suitable, that's too obvious.

"Erchen has just returned to Kyoto, and he has never been in contact with the characters in Beijing, so it's not easy to answer this."

What Huang Zhang said was the truth, he was not familiar with the magnates in Beijing, although he did not receive any gifts, but he didn't know anyone.

"Hmm!"

I saw that the emperor nodded, not surprised at all.

"If there is nothing else, then the minister will retire."

"There's one more important thing." The Emperor spoke suddenly.

"Anything else?"

"Emperor, you are not too young, after this year, you will be an adult. Some time ago, the northern Kui country sent people to make peace, I agreed, the object is the princess of the Kui country, I let her marry you, the princess of a country marries you, it can be regarded as a good match, I will inform you first, so that you can have a preparation, I think it will not be long before the welcome party should arrive in Kyoto. ”

"What!"

Hearing this, Huang Zhang was taken aback.
