Murderous scheming

From the back alone, it can be seen that this person has noble manners and exquisite movements, Xie Xiaofeng knew at a glance that this must be a person in a high position. And the fragrance of tea wafts gently, and the smell is the best Biluochun.

"Xie Xiaofeng, the young owner of Shenjian Villa, is the smartest person in the world." The man said lightly while sipping tea, "Do you know who I am?" ”

Hearing this, Xie Xiaofeng did not squint, bent down and clenched his fists with both hands, "Grass people Xie Xiaofeng knocked on the blessed prince." ”

Hearing this, the prince of Fu was stunned, slowly put down the teacup, and suddenly laughed, "Sure enough, he is the smartest person in the world, but how do you know that he is this king?" ”

Xie Xiaofeng got up and replied, "If the Jinyi guards in the palace want to be dispatched, it is impossible if they are not people in the palace, the prince has lived in Ciqing Palace for a long time and never shows up, and among the vassal kings, only King Fu lives in the Forbidden City, and it is not difficult to guess that you are only in your twenties." ”

King Fu is the third prince of Emperor Wanli, and it is the child born to Emperor Wanli's favorite concubine, Zheng Guifei.

On the surface, this matter seems to be fine, but in fact, as long as you know about it, it is not a secret at all.

Although Xie Xiaofeng didn't pay attention to the affairs of the imperial court, as long as he thought about it with his brain, he knew that the most powerful Emperor Wanli was the king of this blessing today.

Especially from Zhang Cha's attack case, it can be seen that he dared to break into the East Palace alone and planned to attack the prince, if the prince was really killed, then the greatest welfare would be King Fu, let me ask Zhang Cha if he didn't listen to someone to send him, how could he dare to break into the East Palace?

It's just that even if anyone can think of it, no one will say it on the surface.

In the case of the attack, in fact, after Zhang Cha was arrested, he did not die of poisoning, but was strictly guarded and forcibly forced to confess.

When Zhang Cha was finally interrogated, he confessed that it was Zheng Guifei's eunuchs Pang Bao and Liu Cheng who were introduced into the palace. The investigators immediately suspected that it was Concubine Zheng who wanted to murder the crown prince, and immediately enlightened the saint, but when the saint heard the news, he hesitated, obviously unwilling to investigate further.

At this time, Zhang Cha suddenly seemed to be sober, and immediately replied that he was bullied by his neighbors Li Ziqiang, Li Wancang and others, and they burned my firewood and grass.

It's just that when he went all the way to the capital, he didn't know the way, he lost his way when he entered from the east gate, and walked indiscriminately to the west subconsciously, but unfortunately he met two men on the way, gave me a jujube stick, and told me to take this jujube stick to redress my grievances, I don't know what's going on, maybe I was confused all of a sudden, I didn't know anything and walked to the palace gate in a daze, and even because of this, I injured many people, and was finally caught. ”

When Zhang Cha spoke, he shook his head, and even spoke incoherently several times, but it was still difficult to draw a conclusion when Hu Shixiang saw it, he guessed that Zhang Cha should be a crazy person, and he was not sure, so he played the situation first to Emperor Wanli.

Where would Emperor Wanli delve into this matter, but he was just planning to make a show, and when he was about to open his eyes and close his eyes and fool the past, the criminal department raised the prison lord Wang Zhiyu but saw something strange again.

One day, when Wang Zhiyu distributed food to the prisoners in prison, he saw that the poor eyes were clear and his demeanor was normal, not at all like a crazy person.

So he decided to interrogate Zhang Cha again, in order to let him tell the truth, under coercion, Zhang Cha told the truth, led to a shocking conspiracy, and confessed that it was the eunuchs Pang Bao and Liu Cheng under Zheng Guifei who instructed him.

The eunuchs Pang Bao and Liu Cheng have low status, how can they have such courage alone?

Since they were Zheng Guifei's chamberlains, the courtiers would naturally suspect that Zheng Guifei was behind the instigation and wanted to murder the crown prince in order to support King Fu. As soon as this news came out, the government and the opposition were in an uproar for a while, and they speculated that after the news spread, Zheng Guifei was in a panic all day long, and rushed to see Emperor Wanli and cry to the emperor.

Emperor Wanli asked her to show her heart to the prince, and said to Concubine Zheng Guifei, "The crowd is angry, and it is inconvenient for me to be relieved, so you can go and ask the prince yourself!" ”

Zhu Changluo saw that his father was angry, and he heard the sound in his words, so he had to ease his attitude and said, "As long as Zhang Cha bears this matter, the case can be closed." Please order the Criminal Department to handle it quickly, and no one else can be contacted. ”

After hearing this, Emperor Wanli immediately smiled, and nodded frequently, "The prince is right." ”

Emperor Wanli saw that Concubine Zheng was involved, and he didn't want to pursue it any further, so he finally punished Zhang Cha with Ling Chi for the crime of madness and adultery.

I only remember that Zhang Cha once said such a sentence before he died, "The conspiracy to do things, the failure, pushed me to death alone, and many officials didn't care." ”

Pang Bao and Liu Cheng did not pursue the case for the time being, and soon the Criminal Department, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and the Dali Temple Three Law Divisions tried Pang Bao and Liu Cheng five times before and after.

In the end, at the time of the Zhang family's annihilation, Emperor Wanli had secretly ordered the eunuchs Pang Bao and Liu Cheng to be executed, and the whole case could not be investigated, and this attack case was finally closed.

Although the attack case has been covered up, it can be seen from this incident that Emperor Wanli favors Zheng Guifei and King Fu alone.

Even if the crown prince's position is given to the eldest son, it does not mean that King Fu is inferior, but his status is greater than that of the prince.

After listening to Xie Xiaofeng's explanation, King Fu nodded with a smile, "No wonder he is the smartest person in the world, it turns out that this is the case." ”

"But," King Fu suddenly changed his words and asked, "but the officers and soldiers of the Quanshun Heavenly Mansion will arrest you, and the same is true for Jinyiwei, since you know that it is this king, how dare you come to meet this king alone?"

"Unfortunately, Xiao Feng is confident that he can retreat in the hands of Jinyiwei." Hearing this, Xie Xiaofeng smiled confidently and replied lightly.

Seeing this, King Fu laughed again, "Ha, no wonder you can kill a scheming person like Zhuge Hou, it seems that you do have some ability." ”

"The prince has won the award, but Zhuge Hou is too confident and full of loopholes."

"Oh, really?" King Fu raised his eyebrows, "Then now Xiaofeng Shaoxia is ready to return to Shenjian Villa?" ”

"Lord Wang, don't you know that the Divine Sword Villa has been destroyed by Zhuge Hou's subordinates?"

King Fu was stunned, as if he was greatly surprised, "Destroyed?" It seems that the king's news is not so well-informed. ”

"The prince is not from the rivers and lakes, and it is also appropriate not to understand this." Xie Xiaofeng didn't care if what the prince said was true or not, and catered to it.

"Xiaofeng Shaoxia, don't worry, even if this Shenjian Villa is destroyed, as long as Xiaofeng Shaoxia is still there, he can still reorganize Shenjian Villa."
