"The history of the Department is banned! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived with several adults! ”

Just as Ye Yongjia was resolutely in danger, several forbidden soldiers suddenly broke into the mansion and knelt down on one knee to report to Shi Xiushen.

Shi Xiu glanced at Ye Yongjia worriedly, and then asked, "What is the prince's order to come here?" Could it be that the dust has settled there? ”

A sergeant raised his head and replied: "We didn't dare to ask Your Highness this, but we just heard from Lan Shi that the prince brought the people of the East Palace, and he originally wanted to come to arrest Liu Zhennian, but who knew that you had already completed this matter in advance, so I hope you hand over the prisoner and take him to the side hall for trial." ”

Shi Xiushen had a lot of doubts, but he was summoned by the prince, and there was no way to dodge, so he asked these soldiers to open the way and walked out with Ye Yongjia.

The soldiers outside the gate had already lined up in two rows, leaving a large open space in the middle so that the prince's palanquin could be parked. Lan Yuan opened the sedan curtain, grabbed the prince's hand, and led him out of the sedan chair, and immediately heard the mountain cry of 'See His Highness', and the sergeants on both sides knelt down.

The prince smiled all over his face, helped them up one by one, and soothed them with kind words. When he walked under the courtyard wall, he heard the sound of the wooden door, and hurriedly took two steps back, seeing that it was Shi Xiushen and Ye Yongjia.

The two of them saluted, and Shi Xiushen said: "Your Highness came in person at any risk for the sake of national affairs, and Shi admired it very much. If there is any command, Shi will do everything. I don't know where the storage is forbidden, but it has been successful? ”

The prince tightened his robe and said with a smile: "Lu Yingshan's resistance is very tenacious, and I am afraid that it will take a while to fight for the ban." But the battle is decided, and it's time to judge the criminals. The imperial court has organized the criminal department and Dali Temple to be tried in the side hall, you will hand over Liu Zhennian and Gui Fu to this king, and you must uphold the law impartially and give an explanation to the people of the world! ”

"I ......" Shi Xiushen was about to obey orders honestly, but his arm was suddenly touched by Ye Yongjia, and he changed his words, "Don't hide it from Your Majesty, the order to check is an order given by Lord Ye, and he has no right to interfere with his duties, just out of loyalty and help." What's more, he is a lowly martial artist, and he doesn't understand these things very well, so it's better to discuss with Ye Shangshu if he has something. ”

After hearing this, the prince frowned, and turned to look at Ye Yongjia: "Lord Ye, you don't have any opinions, right?" ”

Ye Yongjia replied: "The prince is wise and decisive, and the micro-minister has no reason to obey?" It's just that now that the major events have not yet been decided, and the evidence has not yet been collected and prepared in detail, the court is in a hurry to convict, which may not be a good plan. ”

"This ......" The prince was already a little weak-hearted, and when he heard this, his face was even more timid.

"Lord Ye, are you deliberately embarrassing Your Highness!" Seeing the situation, Lan Yuan hurriedly stepped forward and shouted angrily, "All the princes hate Liu Zhennian to the core, if you don't ask him for the crime as soon as possible, when will you wait?" ”

"Does Liu Zhennian still need to be judged?" Ye Yongjia glanced at it with cold eyes, "Everyone knows what crime he committed." However, the number of Liu Party is huge, and it still needs to be interrogated one by one, and in the long run, how can it be determined in a word? ”

"We didn't say anything about the Willow Party! Only the year of Liu Zhen! ”

"Okay, I'll hand over the willow thief to you. The traitor Guifu will be put in prison for the time being! Ye Yongjia did not show weakness, and a pair of sharp eyes looked at him.

"Bold!" Lan Yuan was furious, clenched his fists, clenched his teeth and roared, "You can't openly resist the decree?" ”

Seeing that the two sides were scolding each other and almost losing their minds, Chen Tongbei hurriedly walked up to them and mediated a little, before the two stopped talking and stopped talking with resentment.

"Shi Siban, there's nothing to do with you here," Chen Tongpao saw that the atmosphere had eased a little, and then turned his head to Shi Xiushen and said, "The emperor still needs someone to escort him, you can take your people back first." ”

"Hmm...... Got it. ”

Shi Xiushen nodded his head reluctantly, and as soon as he turned around, he walked slowly into the distance; But just a few steps forward, the back stopped under the gaze of the surrounding firelight. Before everyone could have any doubts, he took another step and shouted to the soldiers, "Go!" He immediately turned over his horse and left with a dense spark. The billowing smoke dissipated, and the color of the sky suddenly darkened a lot, and even the luster emitted by Ye Yongjia's body also dimmed.

"I have a proposal," Comrade Chen seemed to keep smiling, but Ye Yongjia couldn't see it clearly, and only looked at the pitch black, "Since it is difficult for those Liu Dang to count all the crimes, it is better to judge the criminals who will not be pardoned, that is, rebellion, rebellion, and the like; As for those who are attached to the filthy people, the crimes of corruption and use of power are relatively minor, and they can be put aside for the time being. In this way, there is no suspicion of arbitrariness, and there is no indulgence, why does Ye Gong think it is? ”

Ye Yongjia pinched the letter in his sleeve and said slowly: "What Chen Shangshu said is right, but the evidence still needs to be said. ”

"Yes, evidence," Comrade Chen clapped his hands twice, and his voice was very crisp, "Of course this has to be said." However, the number of interrogators is small, and it can be saved by picking some important ones to transport them over. ”

The prince continued: "Then it is decided. Ye Shangshu, you hand over Liu Zhennian. ”

Ye Yongjia moved his eyes hesitantly, and thought in his heart: "If I act according to the method of Comrade Chen, I will not be able to participate in the trial at all, and I will personally hand over this letter to His Majesty...... But I can't safely say that I know with them, let alone leave it to them. It's better to find another way. ’

Thinking of this, he didn't have time to think about a careful plan, so he had to settle down and prepare a road to the end.

"Your Highness, I have been snorting at him for many years, working beside him, and I have also discovered some secrets. Today's trial, I have a secret letter to present to the emperor, I wonder if I can participate with you? ”

Chen Tongpao patted him on the shoulder, pointed to the official uniform on his body again, and said earnestly: "Ye Shangshu, as the head of the Six Caos, I am not allowed to attend the meeting, where did I come from, 'everyone'?" You and I have to wait. You have important evidence, isn't it the same to hand it over? ”

Ye Yongjia hurriedly retorted: "No! Who can guarantee that the person who took this letter did not have the Willow Party? Who knows if the officials of which ministry or department see it, steal it, or erase a few lines of text? ”

"Nonsense......" Lan Yuan heard this, his anger and blood were about to surge again, and he wanted to scold him a few words, but he was stopped by Chen Tongpao's hand.

"Your worries are not unreasonable," Comrade Chen said, "Since your Excellency is determined to present it to the emperor, well, when the trial of Liu Zhen is completed and the trial is dispersed, I will immediately take you to meet the emperor, and the case file will not be closed at that time, and it will not be too late to submit it again, and you can make a supplement." ”

Although Ye Yongjia was still wary of him, he heard that this matter was very similar, and there was no room for conspiracies, so he agreed: "Okay." ”
