Chapter 68: The First Sense of Power

"Overseer, my subordinates have something important to report!"

"What?" The indifference on Jing Heng's face faded, and a smile appeared in his eyes.

"The Governor of Qiqi, the assassin who assassinated the Overseer and the Emperor before has awakened, and according to his confession, he was assassinated halfway by the instructions of the Five Princes!"

The courtiers, who were arguing just now, suddenly quieted down.

The murder of the monarch has not been convicted this time, how did he pull out the previous assassination?

Nie Zhaoyi, who was originally standing silently on the side, suddenly raised his head when he heard this, and met Jing Heng's gaze.

"I didn't expect that assassination to be arranged by you." Jing Heng shook his head in disappointment, "It seems that your fifth prince really can't wait to put the emperor to death." ”

"Impossible, the previous assassination has nothing to do with this prince!"

"Overseer, according to the Assassins, the Five Princes threatened with poison, and they will only receive the antidote after the assassination has been successfully completed."

"Chase the clouds, take someone to search the dormitory of the five princes, and see if there is any antidote that the assassin said."

"Subordinates obey!"

"Wait!" Jing Heng stopped chasing clouds, "Bring a few more adults with you, so as not to find out something when the time comes, saying that it is the master of this governor who has planted the blame." ”

"Yes, my subordinates understand."

Chasing Yun left, and among the courtiers, there were both those who wanted to see the excitement, and those who defended Nie Zhaoyi, who were really worried about planting false accusations, so they also went to many people.

Shi Yu'an stood quietly outside the dormitory, and he couldn't hold back, and hooked his lips with a smile.

"What is the emperor laughing at?" Jing Heng asked.

"I'm laughing, I see."

Since the second day of arriving at the Hunting Palace, Nie Zhaoyi has changed his residence.

Whether it is Jing Heng or Nie Zhaoyi, in addition to the patrolling guards, there are naturally hidden guards guarding the dormitory.

If you want to set up a blame and put something, although it is not completely impossible, it is a little difficult after all. And after it is finished, if Nie Zhaoyi is careful enough, he may not find out.

But tonight is different, in order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, Nie Zhaoyi must transfer all the secret guards to guard, if during this period, if someone wants to put something, it will naturally be very easy. Moreover, Nie Zhaoyi has never even returned to the dormitory now, so naturally he will not notice anything.

But......

Shi Yu glanced at Nie Zhao, then at Jing Heng, and motioned for him to follow him a little farther away.

"When did the Overseer start plotting this?" Shi Yu lowered his voice extremely low, looked at Jing Heng curiously and asked.

Jing Heng stared at Shi Yu and didn't answer, but asked rhetorically, "What does the emperor think?" ”

Shi Yu thought for a moment, "Actually, I thought it was very strange about the assassin before, why did I still leave a living mouth, and I was seriously injured, unless I ......"

"Unless at that time, Wei Chen had already thought about using this assassin to make a fuss against Nie Zhaoyi, but he had been waiting for an opportunity."

"Tonight is indeed a good time, but since Nie Zhaoyi has been caught killing the king, according to the master's hand, he can bite this matter to death, and there is no need to repeat the same crime. Do you say ......"

Jing Heng's target this time was not Nie Zhaoyi?

Shi Yu had a flash of inspiration, and suddenly turned his head to look at the remaining courtiers, especially the courtiers who supported Nie Zhaoyi.

Taking Shi Yu's expression and gaze into his eyes, the smile on Jing Heng's face became more and more obvious, with playfulness and appreciation, but also with coldness and coldness.

"Your Majesty, sometimes it's not a good thing to be too smart."

Shi Yu's heart trembled fiercely, so, sure enough!

On the horizon, the morning light is gradually rising.

A faint light pierced the darkness and peeked through the edge of the earth, heralding the dawn of the sky and the life of all things.

But at this moment, outside the dormitory, it was suddenly placed in another world, miserable and bitter, thrilling, begging for mercy.

Under the search of Chaiyun, not only did he find the so-called antidote in the mouth of the assassin, but also found letters from Nie Zhaoyi and several courtiers who had secretly exchanged and colluded with him. The above remarks are bold, and there is no lack of curses against Jing Heng.

What's more, together with these secret letters, there is also evidence of the corruption of these courtiers.

The whole thing seems to be Nie Zhaoyi colluding with the courtiers and doing rebellious things, but he is afraid that the courtiers will not be used by him, so he collects evidence and uses it to threaten.

At the same time, just in case, carry important secret letters and incriminating evidence with you.

At first glance, it seems reasonable, but it does not stand up to scrutiny.

For example, the Assassin Confrontation? For another example, are these criminal evidences forged, or are these people indeed corrupt and perverted the law after Jing Heng's verification?

Shi Yu watched this scene quietly.

She knew that Jing Heng would not give them a chance to take a closer look.

For Jing Heng, since he has spent so much effort, how can he only find out a Sheng Ping, suppress these courtiers, and cut off the thoughts of others to support Nie Zhaoyi in the future, so as to make everything cost-effective.

"Overseer, the lower official is really wronged, the lower official really didn't write this letter!" Some courtiers looked at the letters thrown in front of them, and they were so frightened that they were covered in a cold sweat.

"Lord Gao, you haven't written a letter, so are you greedy and bribed and forcibly occupy fertile land?" Chasing Cloud asked.

The above charges have been verified one by one, but they have not been wronged!

"Xiaguan, Xiaguan ......"

"If you admit it now, the Lord will be merciful and spare your family."

In one sentence, almost instantly, all the mouths that shouted grievances were blocked.

Jing Heng didn't seem satisfied, they just kept silent, and Yu Yu continued.

"If you have to let the Governor take the trouble to check one side again, then you will be able to taste the taste of skinning and extracting bones before you die."

Obviously smiling words, but everyone who said it was cold.

The courtiers' faces were deadly silent, and they had no doubt that Jing Heng could indeed do what he said.

The original bowed head buried his head lower, almost with his spine in the earth.

The person who originally looked up at Jing Heng did not dare to bow his head quickly in fear, for fear that the action would be too big, which would cause the dissatisfaction of the overseer.

Even Nie Zhaoyi, who had figured everything out and was anxious to argue and debunk, was dumbfounded.

His gaze swept over the courtiers little by little, and then, he lowered his gaze in a dejected manner, knowing that no matter what he said, it was useless.

One after another the courtiers were disposed of, and under Jing Heng's deterrence, not only did they no longer beg for mercy, but even as long as they did not implicate their families, they would subconsciously show gratitude.

Shi Yu, who was standing on the side, stared at Jing Heng's back, and at this moment, she suddenly deeply felt what power was.

Stand on the top of a high mountain and look down on the earth.

The rain and clouds were turned between the light smiles, and the court changed color.

It seems that karma and harmony, life and death, life and death, true and false, are all tied to one person and one thought.

Shi Yu opened his mouth and found that he couldn't speak.

Obviously, since this period of time, she feels that she has become a lot closer to Jing Heng, and even jokes, occasionally feeling a little friend.

But at this moment, all the previous feelings were shattered.

Suddenly, she and Jing Heng seemed to be separated by an invisible barrier.

At the end of the barrier, she is troubled, hiding secrets and struggling to survive.

At the end of the barrier, he holds great power, calling the wind and rain to determine life and death.

This gap made Shi Yu feel depressed, and even his breathing became difficult.

But just when this feeling of depression was about to reach its peak, in the dark, Jing Heng seemed to sense something and turned to look at Shi Yu.

The eyebrows and eyes were slightly raised, and after a short accident, an indescribable disappointment suddenly surged in my heart.

Nie Shiyu is this afraid of himself?

On a terrifying face, he instinctively wanted to show a frowning and displeased, but when he touched Shi Yu's frozen expression, it finally turned into a pretending to be a relaxed playful joke.

"What, the emperor finally knows that he is afraid?"
