Chapter 299: Lawsuit
Zhao Yunrang is still very smart, and his powerful life over the years has made him have a better sense of vigilance than ordinary people.
There has never been a shortage of open and secret battles in the palace.
The brothers of the same mother can plot against each other, let alone two passers-by who have never known each other.
Although Zhao Yunrang has a bit of an upright personality, he is not stupid, and he knows that he will leave some strong evidence so as not to be cheated when he gets it.
It's just that he didn't expect that no matter how cautious he was, he would definitely leave a handle when he made a move.
The woman was taken back to the Shangjun Palace.
It's just that when I arrived at the door, I stared at the lintel and was stunned for a while.
"Are you literate?"
The woman quickly withdrew her gaze and shook her head timidly.
Zhao Yunrang smiled, "Don't be afraid, no one here will sell you, and your father won't dare to come here to trouble you again, just live in peace, and wait a few days to find a job for you outside, and you can make a living by yourself."
The woman thanked her gratefully and shook her head bitterly.
"Daddy has let the slave family learn to sing and dance since he was a child, and the slave family will not do anything else besides these......
This is when I was a child, I wanted to sell my daughter.
Brute!
The woman's pitiful and miserable appearance aroused Zhao Yunrang's pity.
"Don't worry, if you don't want to go out, stay here in the future, no one will dare you do anything."
Zhao Yun let the woman settle down and went to the backyard.
"The child has seen his mother."
The princess was sitting in the main hall, and Zhao Yunrang was startled when she entered the door, and hurriedly saluted obediently.
"Out again?"
"Yes. …… My son went to the workshop outside the city today, and the output of flower dew is getting bigger and bigger, Qin Wei said that he should keep an eye on it himself, so as not to make trouble for anyone."
The princess's face was very plain, and the elegance of her gestures was particularly graceful and noble.
"We are clan relatives, and we are the queen mother's concern...... The power of the county king's mansion will definitely become weaker and weaker in the future, and some business backgrounds are also good, but remember to be cautious, there are too many harmful intentions in this world......
Zhao Yunrang nodded: "Mother don't worry, my son will be careful."
"But I can't let go of this heart...... the princess put down the jade bead bracelet in her hand, gently rubbed her sour forehead, and said quietly: "Back then, he and his wife said that if they wanted someone, they would drive someone away...... Now that her son has become the emperor, it doesn't count that he has been under surveillance for so many years, and now he wants my son to work for her son! How can there be such a truth in the world......
Speaking of Liu E, the princess's eyes showed a bit of coldness.
To say that the relationship between the two is still a concubine, the two families used to move around a lot when they were in the palace, and the relationship was not bad.
But since Zhao Heng couldn't have a son for a long time, the royal family set its sights on these clan children.
Zhao Yunrang, as a descendant of the clan, is naturally the first candidate.
What's more important is that Zhao Yuanfen, the king of Shang, had died at that time, so the county king's mansion did not pose any threat to Zhao Heng, and he was not afraid that after Zhao Yunrang ascended the throne in the future, Zhao Yuanfen would occupy the dove's nest.
But being an emperor is not something that everyone is happy about.
At least Princess Shang didn't like it, and she didn't want to throw her son into the cold deep palace.
Zhao Yunrang had to smile bitterly, "Mother rest assured, my son knows what to do and what not to do."
"You know a......
Hearing this, the princess picked up a piece of pastry on the table and gently smashed it against her son, Zhao Yunrang reached out to catch it with a smile and stuffed it into her mouth.
"That Zhao Zhen seems to be weak, but he is actually thoughtful! Otherwise, he won't use your hand to support Qin Wei...... Do you think he's just cultivating wings? Wrong! He wants to get you two in the way of danger in the future!"
Zhao Yunrang put away his smile.
It's not the first time he's heard this statement, when Qin Wei half-jokingly said this to him before, he still said a few unintentional words.
Now my mother says the same.
Then he had to think deeply.
silent
After a while, Zhao Yun asked Zhengse to say, "Thank you mother for mentioning it, the child has written it down."
After the mother and son said a few common words, the little maids began to eat.
The princess, who had just gotten up, said, "I heard that you bought a woman from the outside world? Have you checked your identity carefully? Be vigilant, especially to beautiful women!"
Zhao Yunrang smiled and said: "Mother is too worried, she is a good family who was sold by her biological father in desperation, and the child has no other idea of buying her, just to save her once......
"There are so many poor people in the world that you can't save them."
The son's kindness made Princess Shang's heart a little warmer, and she shook her head and stopped talking.
Zhao Yunrang devoured the meal, drank a cup of tea in three sips, and said, "Mother, rest, my son is going to the study to check the accounts......
The princess hesitated for a moment, "The woman's origin still needs to be checked, don't ......
"My son wrote it down, and I'll have someone investigate it later."
After speaking, Zhao Yunrang ran away.
It's just that he was so preoccupied with the accounts of the Xianglu Workshop that he forgot about it before he got to the study.
……
Until the yacha of Kaifeng Mansion came to the door.
Zhao Yunrang realized what a stupid thing he had done.
"Lang Jun, a few officials from Kaifeng Mansion came to the front hall, and Pang Ji personally sent someone here, saying that he wanted to ask you to come over the mansion for questioning......
The little guy shouted outside the door.
Zhao Yunrang also rushed out of the study at this time, and his staff member Fang Yu also learned the news and hurried towards Zhao Yunrang.
As soon as the two met, Fang Yu said with a solemn face, "Lang Jun, I just got the news, the woman you bought yesterday...... His father died, his throat was slashed, and a money box engraved with the logo of the king's mansion of my county was found in his house."
"This is a premeditated frame-up!"
Zhao Yunrang's heart burned with anger, but he immediately calmed down again.
"Is that woman still in the house?"
After he came back yesterday, he forgot about it, and the woman was arranged by him at random in a small courtyard in the outer house.
"Lang Jun rest assured, he has already sent someone to keep an eye on her."
Zhao Yunrang nodded and said solemnly, "In this way, that woman should have been deliberately sent to frame me, and they will wait for the man to die, and then ......."
Fang Yu said coldly: "When the Kaifeng Mansion is down, there will definitely be a rumor that this woman will pass through the hall, if she dies in the County King's Mansion at this moment, then you really can't wash away this suspicion of human life."
Zhao Yunrang didn't speak, just walked quickly to the front hall.
The yacha of Kaifeng Mansion here is already waiting.
Seeing that Zhao Yunrang was coming, the messenger led by him hurriedly saluted and said, "The villain Kaifeng Mansion sent Xue Li, I have seen the little grandfather......
Zhao Yunrang sneered, sat in the first place, and said lightly: "The door has come in, so don't you talk nonsense...... Looking at this posture, I don't know if I think you're here to raid your house......
"The little grandfather is serious, and the villain is also ordered to do things."
"On whose orders? What are you going to do?"
Yacha was a little choked, looking at Zhao Yun's cold face and not daring to speak.
They made it clear as soon as they entered.
It can be seen that Zhao Yun is preparing to bully others because he wants to use this posture.
After all, he is the hereditary king of the clan, even if he really makes any mistakes, it should be the Dali Temple of Tongbing in Kaifeng Prefecture, and then the Dali Temple will report to the palace and be decided by His Majesty's sons.
But the problem is that the current case has not been resolved.
As long as the case is still a little bit, Zhao Yunrang has to be suspected of being a suspect.
Since there is a suspicion, according to the laws of the Great Song Dynasty, Pang Ji has the right to summon Zhao Yunrang to the court for questioning.
But the law is the law.
With the identity of the Shangjun Palace, even if he really kills someone, Kaifeng Mansion will give face.
At least you can't let the dignified little grandfather go to court.
The Great Song Dynasty magnates
We value face the most.
But Pang Ji did just that, not only sent someone here, but also bluntly said that he wanted Zhao Yun to let him pass.
"Is this bullying that there are no men in my palace?!"
With a cold drink, the princess came in court clothes.
This dress and system showed her status as the princess of Shangjun, and it was generally only worn by the concubines of the clan during ceremonies or sacrifices in the palace.
No one expected that Princess Shang would even wear court clothes, which can be seen that she is on fire.
All of a sudden, the hall was full of errands.
"The villain has seen the princess!"
In the Great Song Dynasty, officials and courtiers did not need to bow to each other, and most of them bowed on weekdays.
But once you wear the court clothes...... That represents identity and status.
More than a dozen officials had no choice but to kneel down and salute.
Zhao Yunrang was also taken aback, and after saluting, he respectfully invited his mother to the main seat.
He just wanted to comfort, but was interrupted by the princess's words: "If you want to take someone, let him come in person!" My son, is that also what you can want?!"
Several yacha looked at each other.
When they came, they knew that this errand was not easy to do, and seeing that Princess Shang's attitude was tough, they didn't dare to say much, so they had to go back to report it.
It didn't take long for Pang to arrive.
There was no expression on that slightly dull face, and as soon as he entered the door, he went straight to the point: "Xiaguan Pang, I have seen Princess Shang!"
"If it's about position, the old body should give you a salute."
Princess Shang glanced at Pang Ji lightly.
"Don't dare, Xia Guan was taken care of by the King of Shang many times back then, and it is natural to give you a salute."
The princess ignored him, and just said coldly, "What mistake did my son make, asking you to move the people so vigorously in Kaifeng Mansion? If you come to my Shangjun Mansion to dignitate, your Kaifeng Mansion is the first ......."
"Kaifeng Mansion received a report today that a man on the outskirts of the city was killed at home, and it was found that this person was the biological father of the woman bought back by the little grandfather, and ......
"The officers also found a cash box in this person's house......
Pang Ji waved his hand, and the messenger next to him took out a cash box engraved with the representation of the Shangjun Palace.
This thing is now a piece of evidence and should not have been taken out.
It's just that the identity of the Shangjun Wangfu is special, and even if Pang Ji is iron-faced and selfless, he must take into account Zhao Yunrang's identity.
This little bit of face still has to be given.
And all indications show that this matter is indeed related to Zhao Yunrang.
As for whether it was framed and planted, or the evidence is conclusive.
That won't be known until you check it......
……
The news that Zhao Yunrang was staying in Kaifeng Mansion soon spread.
The people from Dali Temple and the Imperial City Division have set off, and the people from Dali Temple will be responsible for supervising the interrogation and delivering news to Zhao Zhen in the palace at any time.
After all, this matter is related to the clan, and they dare not not care.
And the people of the Imperial City Division want to dig deep into all kinds of evidence, if someone really wants to frame the clan elite, this is a bad nature.
