Yang Du was also shocked when he heard this.

Unexpectedly, this Cao Kesheng was so powerful that he came up with a counter-evidence, pointing out that the head of the Zhang family was a madman.

But Yang Du was old and spicy, he was not surprised, and still replied to the prince with a calm face:

"Although the old minister still has doubts, Lord Cao is an official of the imperial court, and Dunhuang is far away from the Beijing Division, so it is appropriate to respond to the situation, at least for now."

"But the case was finally decided, and the old minister insisted that it must be tried by the three divisions, and sent the Criminal Department, Dali Temple, and Yushitai to Dunhuang to conduct on-the-spot investigations, re-interrogate the witnesses, and review the documentary evidence before making a decision."

"That's fine."

Yuan Zhi said indifferently:

"Such a big and important case, Lone approved Yang Xiang's invitation, so Yang Xiang organized the Criminal Department and other three departments to go to Dunhuang to investigate, hoping to close the case as soon as possible and inform the world."

As soon as the words fell, Yang Du and the chief of the three divisions of the criminal department and the yamen gave up their orders, and the turmoil temporarily subsided.

The crown prince turned his head to look at Zhao Wang Yuanluo again.

was disturbed by Yang Duyi before, and the reintroduction of the old matter could not convict Yuan Luo for the time being.

Because of the treason of Zhang's father and son, it still needs to be reviewed.

Otherwise, it's a constant stretch.

But Zhang Bao is a suspect, and this is currently established.

I couldn't kill King Zhao, but I beat him hard, and I still managed to do it.

As for Yang Du and others, they are just brushing their sense of existence, and if they don't have the comprehensive strength of Cao Qichang, there is no harm.

Of course, the crown prince will not get rid of them, and their existence can actually play a role in spurring and supervising the people on the side of the new regime.

Why not?

As long as they don't throw themselves into the king of Jiangnan, the crown prince doesn't want to embarrass them.

"Third brother of the emperor, I came to ask you, where is Zhang Bao now?"

The prince has changed a proposition, a new entry point.

Yuan Luo couldn't help frowning when he heard this.

He's not stupid, on the contrary, he's smart and unresponsive.

Therefore, when he heard this proposition, he immediately thought in his mind: Zhang Bao himself will never be able to keep it.

It's a good thing that I have such a hand.

However, he never understood how the Dunhuang Zhang family offended the crown prince, and actually let his imperial brother kill him, and he would never stop until he killed them.

But at this time, he couldn't think much about it.

On the main hall, Yuan Luo came out of the queue and bowed to Yuan Zhi:

"Back to the crown prince, Zhang Bao is in the minister's brother's mansion, and I have put him under house arrest."

"Well done the third brother of the emperor, Zhang Bao is suspected of rebellion and rebellion, you can distinguish right from wrong,

Don't bend the law with favoritism, you are very happy, are you willing to take the secret guard to the palace to get people? ”

Yuan Luo's expression was serious, "Your Royal Highness the Prince, please rest assured, such a disobedient and unfilial thief, it is already a mistake for the younger brother to be deceived by him for a while, and he will definitely not make more mistakes than mistakes, and the younger brother immediately cooperated with the secret guard and captured him and put him in prison." ”

"Hmm!"

Yuan Zhi glanced at Yuan Luo coldly.

I didn't expect this gentleman prince to be getting smarter and smarter now.

This guy can't stay long.

The murderous spirit in Yuan Zhi's eyes.

The sharp eyes swept around among the ministers under the imperial platform, and the prince smiled lightly and said indifferently:

"Very good, let's convene here today, if you still have a recital, you can submit it to the Privy Council, or go to the East Palace to find a solitary face."

"After retiring, the Criminal Department and other three divisions immediately sent capable people to Guazhou to review the Zhang family's rebellion case.

"Secondly, the secret guard immediately followed King Zhao to the palace, arrested Zhang Bao, and put him in prison, there must be no mistake."

"Yes."

“……”

At this point, on the Xuanzheng Hall of Daming Palace, a storm has been brewed.

……

Speaking of Zhang Bao.

Since returning to my room last night, I've been crying all night with heartbreak.

In the morning, I woke up in a daze, only to find that I had been placed under house arrest.

Zhang Bao, who knew that he had become an outcast, was secretly sad in the room.

He is not afraid of death, but who will avenge the Zhang family when he dies?

Until now, he has not recovered from the tragedy of extermination.

Single-mindedly thinking about revenge, revenge, revenge.

At that moment, the door creaked open.

Zhang Bao, who was upset and irritable, thought that it was the next person who came to deliver the food, and waved his hand and said:

"Put things down, I don't want to see anyone!"

After speaking, I heard an unfamiliar chuckle.

Zhang Bao stood up extremely vigilantly, turned around and stared at the masked man in front of him who he didn't know, and said in a deep voice:

"Who are you? What do you want to do? ”

"But King Zhao sent you to kill me?"

The masked man sat down at the coffee table by himself, opened the tea bowl and poured himself a glass of water, and said:

"It's not stupid to get home, knowing that Yuanluo is going to kill you."

Zhang Bao's pupils suddenly constricted, and he was nervous and scared to the extreme.

He exclaimed, "He's really going to kill me!?" Am I no longer useful!? ”

The masked man said leisurely:

"There are only two things you can use to your advantage, the first is a fairly smart brain

Bag, I have a little knowledge from a famous teacher, and the second and most important point is the Zhang family, which controls local resources. ”

"Now that your family has been completely wiped out, do you think there is still a lack of smart people like you in this world?"

The masked man glanced at Zhang Bao, who was trembling with fear and his face was pale, and sneered:

"What a bullshit little marquis, Dunhuang Zhang's family is such a coward for you, it's a joke."

When Zhang Bao heard this, his face turned from pale to red, and he said angrily: "Who are you?" I don't want to die because I have no revenge! ”

"Well, that's all I love to hear." The masked man took the teacup and dried it, put the teacup on the coffee table and said:

"Don't panic, I'm here to save you."

"For Yuan Luo, you have no use value, and it is impossible for him to confront the prince of the East Palace for you."

"For King Jiang Nan, you are just a pawn who suddenly appeared and ruined his layout, and he won't care about your life or death."

"These two have abandoned you like a shoe, and Cao Fu is now a mud bodhisattva crossing the river, it is difficult to protect himself, Cao Qichang is not a year ago at this time, it is even more impossible for him to come to save you, and the East Palace is going to destroy you quickly."

"Hey, hey... The world is so big, no one can give you a way to live except me. ”

Seeing that this masked man was not here to kill him, Zhang Bao was relieved immediately.

Immediately afterward, he began to think about countermeasures.

"This good man, Zhang doesn't know who you are, how can he believe you."

The masked man's eyes were calm, and he said slowly: "Do you know that an alliance has risen on the rivers and lakes in the past half a year, called the Vengeance Alliance? ”

Zhang Bao first came to the capital, involving the rivers and lakes of the Central Plains, and before he came, he was interested in investigating the intelligence of the prince and King Zhao and King Ning, how could he know this.

So, he honestly shook his head and said he didn't know.
