Chapter 37: Let's go to Dali Temple for tea
"Could it be that these officials of Dali Temple are really here for Lord Zheng?"
"No, Lord Zheng, as the secretary of the criminal department of the imperial court, if you want to talk about it, you will be on an equal footing with Liu Keke, the secretary of the Dali Temple."
"Even if Liu Ke eats the bear's heart and leopard gall, he may not dare to catch Zheng Shangshu in Zheng Yu, not to mention that Zheng Shangshu is still the confidant of the four princes, and now he has formed a family with the monk Taishi."
"Isn't it a joke to arrest Zheng Shangshu and put him in prison?"
The people in the flower hall were all whispering and talking.
However, when they saw Liu Ke, who was round and round, walking in with a smile, they all immediately closed their mouths, not daring to make a sound.
Don't look at Liu Ke with a smile on his face, but these people present all know that this person is a living Hades.
As long as he appears with the people of Dali Temple, it must mean that someone is going to be unlucky.
Everyone's eyes fell on Liu Ke's body tightly, looking at who he was walking towards.
Seeing Liu Ke smiling and rushing, Zhou Yang first arched his hand and followed it in his heart, and then looked at Zheng Tianxiang, who was standing opposite Zhou Yang with a menacing look.
"Who is this for? is so angry, it seems that Lord Zheng has been on fire in the past two days! ”
"But it just so happens that our Dali Temple Zheng Yu has always been a good place to clear the fire, if Lord Zheng doesn't dislike it, give us a trip, go to Zheng Yu, I will definitely serve Lord Zheng well."
"Take this anger on you, Master Zheng, give it a good vent."
Liu Ke looked like he was not smiling, and said to Zheng Tianxiang.
At the same time, the officials of Dali Temple under him also surrounded this flower hall intentionally or unintentionally, and no one could enter and exit normally.
"Lord Liu, what does this mean?"
"This is my Zheng's mansion, is it a little inappropriate for Lord Zheng to break in with people like this, not to mention that the four princes will come over soon, you will make such a room of officials, and the four princes will be displeased when they come."
Zheng Tianxiang said with the confidence in his heart.
He knew that if he was discouraged, he would definitely show his flaws.
It only needs to hold on for a while, and when the four princes come, then this matter will be handled by the four princes.
Even if Liu Ke is the crown prince as the Dali Siqing, when facing the four princes, he has to restrain some scruples.
Otherwise, if the fourth prince went to Emperor Deyuan's side and said a few words casually, Liu Ke would not be able to eat and walk around.
Who knew that tourists didn't care at all about what Zheng Tianxiang said.
also laughed coldly, looking at Zheng Tianxiang in front of him.
"Lord Zheng misunderstood, I'm not here today to give you nonsense to Lord Zheng."
"Instead, please Lord Zheng to go to the Imperial Prison, if Lord Zheng obediently cooperates, then please, otherwise, ......"
Speaking of which, the look on Liu Ke's face was also extremely gloomy.
"Come on, arrest Zheng Tianxiang, the accomplice in the assassination of Concubine Xian, to this official, and the Zheng family, all of whom are not left behind, and they will all be arrested and sent to the edict prison."
As soon as these words came out, the officials behind Liu Ke rushed towards Zheng Tian and the father and son like wolves.
Before the father and son could react, they were directly pressed to the ground by those officials and couldn't move.
"What are you doing here? This official is a dignified secretary of the criminal department, and you treat this official like this, I want to complain to Your Majesty. ”
"I want to see Your Majesty, when the time comes, all of you people will not be able to eat and walk around, I must make you look good."
Zheng Tian wanted to be pressed to the ground, but he was still struggling desperately there, scolding while struggling, threatening Liu Ke and these officials of Dali Temple.
However, whether it was Liu Ke or these ordinary officials, they didn't take Zheng Tianxiang's threat seriously at all.
The high-ranking officials they usually arrest are no longer one or two.
They have the same identity as Zheng Tianxiang, and they are even higher than him.
Before these people were arrested, they were all the same as Zheng Tianxiang, but after being arrested, they went to the edict and prison, just like a frosted eggplant.
In the end, it is not to agree with their casual mercy.
After Shang Taishi next to him saw all this, he was directly dumbfounded.
Obviously, these people in Dali Temple were listening to Zhou Yang's command.
It was under Zhou Yang's instructions that they came in to arrest the Zheng family's father and son, and this scene made Shang Taishi faintly regret it in his heart.
I seemed to have lost my eyes just now, this Zhou Yang is not like before, he is still a fool.
Instead, he was scheming, and he used the appearance of a fool to confuse everyone, so that everyone despised him extremely much, and then took him by surprise and hit the enemy's vital point.
Zheng Tianxiang shouted loudly as he cast a distressed gaze at Master Shang.
He tried to ask Master Shang to help him say a few words.
After seeing Zheng Tianshang's gaze for help, Shang Taishi subconsciously dodged, hesitated, and still spoke hard.
"Stop!"
Shang Taishi's old voice with a bit of majesty sounded, and everyone stopped what they were doing and turned to look at him.
"His Royal Highness the Seventh wants to arrest Zheng Shangshu, so there must be a reason!"
"You keep saying that Zheng Shangshu has something to do with the assassination of Concubine Xian, so please ask His Royal Highness the Seventh to come up with evidence."
Seeing that Master Shang spoke, these confidants of the Zheng family present were often relieved.
As long as someone helps Zheng Shangshu speak, it will be able to hold out for a while and drag on until the arrival of the fourth prince.
"That's right, even if you want to catch Lord Zheng, you have to have evidence, even if Dali Temple is in charge of the prison, the reconnaissance officials can't be so unscrupulous!"
"Your Dali Temple is rampant and brutal in the capital on weekdays, and we can't bear it anymore, and today we arrest Lord Zheng, if we can't come up with anything to say, we will jointly file a lawsuit and request the abolition of Dali Temple."
Those henchmen of the Zheng family in the crowd were shouting there, trying to force Dali Temple to release people.
Even if they can't release people, at least they have to drag on for a while until help arrives.
If you really let the people of Dali Temple take Zheng Shangshu away like this, it will be easy to leave, but it will be difficult to come back.
And now there are several people in this court official who have clean underneath their buttocks.
After entering Dali Temple, he was punished, and maybe Zheng Shangshu confessed to other things.
In this way, those of them who had nothing to do with Concubine Xian's case might also be implicated because of other things, and they would really have suffered an unjustified disaster.
So now they are also very anxious compared to the Zheng family's father and son.
