Chapter 260: Speculation

This Gongzi Xiu, who was pressed by the heavy shackles in the hall and couldn't raise his head, the ninth son of the current emperor, and the once beautiful An Guojun, he was already wandering out of the world at this moment, and he didn't know what he was thinking......

Gongzi Xiu raised his head slightly and glanced at Gao Chong's face, this is simply a crime that he wants to add, why is there no excuse? He didn't know who was behind Gao Chong, no matter who it was, at the moment he was just forcibly finding an excuse to kill them, there was no justice at all, but he was still lucky, until he saw that his uncle and father-in-law were taken down, he understood that the opponent was going to uproot his son-in-law and the Yang family behind him, without mercy......

In the lobby of the Tingwei Mansion, after the temple people read out the holy decree, they looked at the prisoners in the hall with dignity, and said sharply: "The human and material evidence are all there, and the crimes are unforgivable. ”

Yang Lin and Yang Yan didn't cooperate with Gao Zhong's scolding at all, and Yang Yan even directly opened the brush cinnabar, and the cinnabar was sprinkled all over the ground, like blood.

Yang Yan pointed at Gao Zhong and scolded angrily: "Back then, my two brothers fought in the south and the north, with outstanding achievements, and the mountains of corpses and the sea of blood were lying over, but I didn't expect that now I would be humiliated by a villain like you, Your Majesty?" You open your eyes and see, how can you be deceived by the villain? Heaven is unfair. ”

When Gao Zhong heard this, he said angrily: "Okay, the evidence is ironclad, you still don't admit your guilt, come on, take down Eryang and let them sign and draw the charge, I want to see how hard your two bones are." ”

The jailer on standby in the hall rushed up and forcibly pressed Yang Lin and others to sign and draw the detention, and for a while the scolding in the hall was endless.

And Gongzi Xiu himself turned a blind eye to the charges placed in front of him like a fool, just knelt in place like a wooden man, indifferent, and the impatience of the two prison guards and others directly forcibly grabbed his hand and held the pen and hooked it on the crime to count it as if it was over, during which Gongzi Xiu was still done by them without resistance.

When the doorman Wei Man saw his son's appearance like this, his heart was like ashes, he knew that Gongzi Xiu had accepted his fate, and there was no hope at the moment, and all that was waiting for them was when to ask for the beheading.

Wei Man didn't need to use the jailer's hand, he directly signed his name with a neat pen, and then laughed and said: "If you want to add a crime, there is no excuse, if you want to add a crime, what is the trouble?" … Hahaha......"

Gao Chong saw Gongzi Xiu and others signing and drawing, he directly flicked his sleeves and ordered someone to take them down, he looked at the crime of signing and drawing the charge in his hand, nodded secretly, and said in his heart, he can finally give Xiangguo an errand......

At this time, Gongzi Xiu was almost dragged by the jailer through the many checkpoints and threw him into another death row, although it was still a single room, it was not as good as the cell he had stayed in before, there was only a layer of thatch on the ground here, and there was nothing, the surroundings were extremely dim, damp and abnormal, the air exuded a pungent rancid smell, and rats and cockroaches shuttled back and forth in the thatch, even the prince who had experienced the battlefield battle like Gongzi Xiu couldn't stand such a harsh environment, and he also knew that he didn't have a choice, He has been relegated to a commoner, nothing more.

Gongzi Xiu looked around, and suddenly remembered a little nostalgic for the military life of the year, although it was also a meal and sleeping in the open air, but no matter how bad the conditions of living in the military tent were, the current environment was unbearable, he really wanted to be pulled out early tomorrow morning to be beheaded and pulled down, and he would save himself from suffering here.

Gongzi Xiu leaned against the earthen wall, he couldn't help but think of the bits and pieces of waiting for the emperor in front of the emperor a few years ago, he didn't believe that his father would suddenly cut him down? He couldn't see the sign at all? Later, the emperor also issued an order to let him supervise the country, and it was clear that he was to train him as an heir, how could he be abolished for some reason?

Now in such a situation, Gongzi Xiu thinks with his ass that there are traitors behind his back, what kind of bullshit and three crimes? There was not even a discussion about this, and almost everyone around him was tortured into a trick and forcibly convicted.

Gongzi Xiu was somewhat involved in the prince's rebellion at the beginning, and he was not completely wronged in terms of crime, but what he didn't expect was that even his uncle and father-in-law were involved for no reason, which was completely clear that he was framing them and making them speechless.

Gongzi Xiu probably has a little guess in his heart, the biggest possibility is that someone has set up a situation to frame them for the sake of the throne? Who could it be?

He didn't know why the first candidate to come out was An Lehou? After thinking about it for a long time, he shook his head secretly, An Lehou is thousands of miles away, and no one in the court speaks for him, he can't be so far away to participate in the succession, the person who wins the heir can only be the first to get the moon near the water, and the prince who stays in the capital is the most likely.

So who else? Childe? At present, he is the only adult prince who stays in the capital, but his mother has fallen out of favor, and the relatives of the Li family have basically been swept out of the house by the emperor, and he is unlikely to ascend to the throne. Could it be Mrs. Xu's son, Gongzi Yin? Or is it the son of Mrs. Zhou?

Just when he was thinking about it, a voice came from the next cell through the earthen wall: "Childe, are you still there?" ”

When Gongzi Xiu heard this, he suddenly came to his senses, and he leaned on the wall and shouted, "Is it you, sir?" ”

Wei Man said in a hoarse voice: "Childe is me." ”

When Gongzi Xiu heard this, he sighed: "It's me who has tired Mr. ”

Wei Mandao: "Childe, don't say that, I have been mentally prepared since the day I helped you seize the throne, but I didn't expect to come so quickly today and come so without warning." ”

Gongzi Xiu said in a sad tone: "Yes, my father has been wise all his life, how can he still listen to the villain's slander in the end, this makes no sense." ”

When Wei Man heard this, he sneered next door and said, "What Gongzi said is that Your Majesty has been wise and martial all his life, how can he suddenly be hot-headed and listen to the villain's slander." ”

Wei Man paused in his tone and said, "Unless Your Majesty can't hear the advice anymore......"

When Gongzi Xiu heard this, he was shocked: "What? What do you mean, sir? ”

Wei Mandao: "This is just a speculation of mine, if Your Majesty is still alive, I really can't think of a reason why Your Majesty wants to abolish Gongzi, if Your Majesty is still alive, you will never let a villain like Gao Zhong hide from the sky and act arbitrarily." ”

Gongzi cultivated: "What Mr. said is yes, I really can't believe that my father will abolish me, this doesn't make sense, Gao Zhong This villain has been Huo Xiang's confidant for many years, is it Huo Xiang behind his back?" ”

Wei Mandao: "Gongzi is right, if it weren't for Huo Zheng, I really can't think of anyone else who has such a great influence inside and outside the government and the opposition, to the point where he can influence the situation, since the Taiji Palace Incident and the suppression of the prince's mutiny, His Majesty has almost obeyed Huo Xiangguo's words and has great trust, if Huo Zheng's treacherous appearance turns back at a critical moment, then all this can be explained now." ”

Gongzi cultivated: "Lord Zhao has no objection to this?" He is also one of the four auxiliary ministers, is he just indifferent to watching us fall into trouble? ”

Just as Wei Man was about to say something, a figure in the opposite cell leaned against the door of the prison and said: "Lao Zhao has long been unable to count on it, since His Majesty issued a decree to designate the minister as an auxiliary minister, only one day later, I have never seen Zhao Shaofu come to the court, and the right prime minister Wang Yi, and I have not seen him come to the court. ”

"At that time, the old man didn't understand why, now it seems that Lord Zhao and Wang Xiangguo are likely to be put under house arrest by Huo Zheng's traitor, and now he can protect himself and have already burned high incense, it is impossible to speak for us, and now the four auxiliary ministers, the four are gone, and Huo Lao Thief has already leaned into power."

When Gongzi Xiu heard this familiar voice, he knew that it was his uncle Yang Lin, but he couldn't see who was on the other side when he got to the door of the cell, and the cell was too dark.

Gongzi Xiu shouted: "Uncle ......"

Yang Lin sighed and said: "Mr. Wei, what you said is right, I should have thought that it was Huo Zheng, a traitor, who was making an obstacle, since he announced that I was the auxiliary minister, I and Zhao Shaofu have never met His Majesty again, it turned out that he had always been in the palace to pass on the edict, until now that he is in prison, he realized that it was too late to regret it." ”

When Wei Man heard this, he was overshadowed, he thought that Huo Zheng and Zhao Shu were plotting to make Gongzi Sheng the king, but he never expected that Zhao Shu would have been taken down long ago.

Wei Mandao: "I understand, then there is only one possibility now, or set up Gongzi Yin, or set up Gongzi Tao as the young master, they are all eleven or twelve-year-old dolls, he Huo Zheng is above 10,000 people, the lord and young ministers are strong, and he can also be a power minister for more than ten years, I am afraid that in the future, he will be the only one inside and outside the government and the opposition, and it seems that the story of Li Gong will be repeated again in this dynasty, and only in this way will he Huo Lao thief have the motivation to deceive the upper and lower levels, and abolish the position of your heir, I am afraid that the edict of Gongzi has long been destroyed by this traitor." ”

Gongzi Xiu laughed strangely and said, "If my father had made me the crown prince earlier, how could I have allowed these traitors to act like this?" I can only blame my bad life, every time I am just one step away from the big position, time, fate, luck, hahaha......"

When everyone heard this, they were filled with grief and indignation, and now they are in prison but there is nothing they can do.

At this time, in the Prime Minister's mansion, Gao Zhong had already carefully reported to Huo Zheng with the so-called crimes.

Huo Zheng looked at the file, bowed slightly, and said with satisfaction: "Okay, very good." ”

Gao Zhong said: "Enxiang, the lower officials have formulated the prince Xiu Yang Lin and others in accordance with the rules of the imperial court, and the three clans of Yi are beheaded, and now the evidence is ironclad, and few people in the Manchu Dynasty dare to speak for them, and now the major event has been decided, just wait for Gongzi Sheng to return to Beijing to inherit the throne." ”

When Huo Zheng heard this, his eyes showed a cold light and said, "What are you waiting for after the autumn to ask for beheading?" Since the evidence is conclusive, I will send them on the road tomorrow, and you will be responsible for supervising the beheading. ”

Gao Chongyan's heart trembled when he heard this, and said, "Xia Guan understands. ”

The next morning, I don't know what happened this winter, the goose feathers and snow in the sky kept falling, and there was no sign of stopping for a while, and the heavens and the earth were covered with snow, and it seemed that God was also trying to purify the unbearable sins that happened in this world in this way.

The court on the outskirts of Qingyang City was surrounded by people who came to watch the execution, just these few months is a sudden change in the situation, I didn't expect that the dignified An Guojun and the son of the prince have been cultivating their talents for a few years, and they were inexplicably involved in the incident of the former prince's rebellion and were escorted to the court and sentenced to beheading.

The people also talked about it in private, thinking it was incredible, more than three years have passed since the rebellion of the former prince, why did it suddenly bring up the old things again? I'm afraid that there must be a secret in this that is not enough for outsiders, and for a while, the people privately spread false rumors all over the sky.

At this moment, outside the law field, one after another prisoner cars slowly drove into the law field, led by An Guojun Gongzi Xiu, who had infinite scenery, followed by Yang Lin and Yang Yan, and the thousands of prisoner cars behind the three were not even qualified to get on the prisoner car Hundreds of guests who had followed Gongzi Xiu and the immediate family members of the three people.

Alas! When the three of them are in the limelight, one person attains the Tao, the chicken and the dog ascend to heaven, and once the pillars of the family lose power, these people also have to go to hell together.

At noon, the supervisor raised his eyes and glanced at the hour, three o'clock in the afternoon had arrived, the three drums in the court were finished, and the huge copper horn resounded in the sky.

Gao Zhong threw out the token expressionlessly and shouted sharply: "Slash." ”

All the prisoners were escorted to the execution platform to be beheaded, and at this moment, three horsemen flew outside the court and shouted: "Leave people under the knife......"
