Chapter Seventy-Two: The Leng Family is in ruins
Cai Wei and Ning Zhu ran into the study with nervous faces, and saw Li Chengzhou sitting on a chair at this time, looking at him in a panic.
"The prince has just been assassinated by an assassin, is the situation okay?"
Cai Wei looked worried, and immediately rushed to hear the rumors.
met Ning Zhu on the way, and after telling her about it, the two came together.
"It's okay, it's all for others to see."
As he spoke, Li Chengzhou calmly pulled out the dagger inserted in his abdomen, and the crimson blood made the two of them panic.
"It's a fake dagger, and as for the so-called blood, it's also syrup."
As he spoke, he stabbed the dagger in his hand a few times, and the blade immediately shrank, turning out to be a telescopic dagger.
He dipped in a little syrup and licked it, it tasted quite sweet.
Suddenly, the hearts of the two of them can be regarded as landing.
"However, this time he can be regarded as getting what he wants, and now Zhang Jiuqing has no backer, and his demise is doomed."
In order to dispel the doubts of the two, he informed them of the situation at that time.
Leng Pujia knew that she couldn't escape, and if she was caught by Zhang Jiuqing, she would inevitably be beaten.
She approached Li Chengzhou to explain the situation and hoped for help.
Li Chengzhou pushed the boat down the river, not only cooperated with her in a play, but also won Leng Pujia's trust.
After settling the two, he took a few henchmen to the outside of the city, and after some searching, he saw a pine tree with a red cloth hanging on it, and next to the roots were a few dead trees that had fallen to the ground.
Squatting down, Li Chengzhou groped, and sure enough, he found a bamboo slip inside.
"Now that he has this thing, Zhang Jiuqing no longer has any confidence to show off his might."
Cutting the grass and eradicating the roots, what he has to do is to make Zhang Jiuqing no longer be his opponent.
But in order to avoid causing turmoil, he thought about it for a long time, and decided to deal with it differently.
"I heard that a few days ago, Zhang Jiuqing sent someone to clean up the prince of the Hou Mansion, if this thing is handed over to the Hou master, we don't need to make a move."
Hearing this, his subordinates immediately understood, and then hurriedly left with bamboo slips.
Although Leng Pujia who went back was trusted by Zhang Jiuqing, she also knew Zhang Jiuqing's thoughts.
was forced by Zhang Jiuqing to wear a wedding dress to visit the church to get married, and she secretly prayed in her heart, hoping that Li Chengzhou could help her get out.
At this time, Zhang Jiuqing had already arranged for his subordinates to clean up the cold mansion and put up the lights.
The guests who came to watch the ceremony were full of discussions.
"This Leng Prime Minister didn't die a few people, Zhang Jiuqing was in a hurry to marry Leng Pujia, didn't he want to swallow the entire Leng family?"
Zhang Jiuqing was originally born in poverty, and he had cultivated in Tianxuan Sect for many years without anything outside his body, and he was even more shabby in the imperial city.
"He clearly didn't take Leng Mochen in his eyes, the funeral was not finished yet, so he did a happy event, poor Leng Mochen trusted him so much, lure the wolf into the room, lure the wolf into the room!"
The eyes of the guests showed disdain, and many people came to see the excitement.
Leng Pujia was sitting on the bed in a red wedding dress at the moment, and she couldn't stop feeling sad in her heart.
After waiting for a long time, I didn't see Li Chengzhou, and my heart suddenly felt sad, and I still fell into an ice cave.
"Miss, Master Zhang asked me to take you out to worship and get married."
Xu is Zhang Jiuqing knows that the hurry of the happy event will be discussed, so everything is simple, but he still can't avoid criticism from others.
Leng Pujia followed out like ashes, and in Zhang Jiuqing's joyful smile, the two began to worship the church.
Just as they were about to worship the church, a group of soldiers rushed in with weapons in hand.
"Who is Zhang Jiuqing?"
An official in a red robe was majestic, looking around for Zhang Jiuqing's figure.
The two were forced to stop, Zhang Jiuqing looked at the official, and the official waved his hand and pointed at Zhang Jiuqing, who was dressed in a wedding robe.
"Come on, take it down, and seal up the Leng family!"
Suddenly, the surrounding guests scattered and fled, and the birds and beasts left like a rush, for fear that they would be implicated if they were one step too late.
The soldiers immediately rushed forward to capture Zhang Jiuqing, and before he could react, he was taken aside.
As for Leng Pujia, she was also taken not far away with other Leng family daughters, and the officials' actions were very fast, and it didn't take long to count all the people here, and all the Leng family up and down were sealed.
Many families were terrified and wanted to escape, but they were still arrested.
The news of this matter was boiling, and many people hated Leng Mochen to the core, and the emperor also ordered his officials to collect evidence related to the Leng family, and it was difficult to write for a while.
Zhang Jiuqing originally wanted to exonerate himself by pretending to be someone else's hand, but all the evidence of the crime was in the hands of officials, so he naturally could not shirk his responsibility, let alone evade it.
There are many crimes and responsibilities, and he cannot resist.
"Zhang Jiuqing, if you obediently confess your guilt, you can avoid being beaten, if you don't admit it, don't blame the official for severely beating you."
There was a hint of anger on the official's face, he didn't have a good temper, so naturally he wouldn't give the other party any chance to hesitate.
Zhang Jiuqing, who was kneeling on the ground, looked disdainful, and he concluded that it was impossible for several people to have evidence of his crime, so he was unwilling to cooperate.
Seeing that he looked arrogant and refused to admit his guilt, the official's face at this moment lost his usual patience, but a look of anger.
"Today, the official can give you a chance, but you don't cherish it, come here, torture!"
At the sound of the order, several officials put all the torture in front of them, and immediately gave him the first thing to use.
Although this torture is old-fashioned, it is painful to the heart.
He looked at the torture in front of him without changing his face, when the torture equipment was equipped and the ten fingers were clamped fiercely, the pain in his heart made him sweat coldly, but he had honed his will after years of hard work in the mountains, so that he didn't shout a word of pain.
At this moment, another official came in a hurry, holding a box in his hand.
When the official opened the box and saw the contents clearly, his face suddenly changed.
"Stop, there's already evidence of his crime."
This was reviewed by the officials above before being handed over to him for processing.
As soon as Zhang Jiuqing got rid of the pain, he suddenly felt a whirlwind of the world, and then his body fell heavily to the ground, making a muffled sound.
The officials who handled the case soon found other crimes of the Leng family, but in one day, Zhang Jiuqing was imprisoned and awaiting his fate, and reported the situation of the Leng family to the emperor.
When the emperor saw the dazzling array of jewels and all kinds of valuable things, he was immediately angry, but he didn't expect that a prime minister was greedy for things beyond imagination.
"Zhang Jiuqing aided the abuse, and is suspected of being an accomplice, and deserves to be exiled."
The Leng family couldn't escape the ending of being assigned, and Zhang Jiuqing also offended many people in the court, and many people fell into the well for a while.
"Just do as you say, and tell the world about this matter to set an example."
The emperor looked at the official kneeling on the ground with a serious face, and his heart was furious.
Fortunately, the raid was swift and no treasure was lost.
As for Li Chengzhou, he followed Zhao Songlin to get busy and count these female dependents.
