Chapter 45: Confronting each other in the court

"Boom."

Mao Zheng, the sun rose, the morning drum of Chang'an sounded, Ji Wen stood up, and followed the female envoy to the lobby.

There was a look of sorrow on his face, and his eyes were red, for it had only been two quarters of an hour before that he had learned that his eldest son, who was filial and wise, had died.

Before he got the news, he didn't have any worries.

Although Chang'an was in chaos at night, he only found the wrong person when handling the case, and it was not the first time, and there were already hundreds of unjust, false and wrongful cases he handled.

As for Yang Shenjin's official residence in the imperial history of the wronged Yang Shenjin this time, so what?

When Wei Jian was investigated by him, he was also the middle of the imperial history, and he also served as the secretary of the criminal department, the envoy of Cao Yun, etc., and he was only one step away from paying homage to the prime minister.

Although Ji Wen is a petty official in a green robe, the scarlet high-ranking official is also his subordinate prisoner, relying on the fact that he knows the right minister's intentions, and the right minister has been hating Yang Shenjin more and more recently.

Only the news of his son's death made Giwen suddenly realize that something was wrong.

There is a conspiracy!

Years of experience in prison made him smell a terrible smell of danger, a chill down his spine, and he forcibly stabilized his mind from the grief of losing his son, and had a premonition that there would be a bite next.

He had to win......

~~

The saint is no longer in the early court, and the state affairs are entrusted to Li Linfu, so every morning and evening, the officials will go to the right minister's mansion to wait, just like a small court.

Today, in the lobby, it was just a meeting between the right and confidants.

When Ji Wen walked into the hall, Li Linfu had not yet arrived, and there were already several people in the hall.

"Gifaccio is coming, mourning."

Everyone was relieved, and Ji Wen responded to these hypocrisies, and his eyes scanned the lobby, only to see Luo Xizao, the chief bookkeeper of the Imperial History Stage, standing there, so he leaned over and whispered a conversation.

Luo Xixiao was wearing a light green official robe, and although he was only about thirty years old, he already had a majestic and fierce aura.

He is as famous as Ji Wen, and the two are known as "Luo Tong Ji Net", Luo Tong is the imperial history, responsible for impeachment and complaint; Ji Wan is Fa Cao, who is responsible for arrest and interrogation. The two cooperate with each other and have a tacit understanding.

"Someone is trying to harm me." Gwen whispered, "The four attacks, all of which were aimed at me, must not be accidental. ”

Luo Xixiao quickly glanced behind the screen and whispered: "Don't worry, in the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, no one can harm us." ”

Ji Wen didn't expect that when he was in difficulty, he could be comforted by such warm words from a cool official, and he couldn't help but be greatly moved.

Then, someone entered the hall, and Ji Wen looked at it, and when he saw that it was Xue Bai, there was a trace of coldness in his eyes.

"All night, there is this kid everywhere, do you need to talk about something?"

~~

Xue Bai stood in the corner, not looking at Ji Wen, but observing the other officials.

He had now learned to look at the grade by the color of his robes, and knew that light green was the seventh grade, so he recognized Luo Xizao who was standing side by side with Ji Wen, and glanced at him, not avoiding the fierce gaze.

A few more people arrived.

Xue Bai saw Yang Shenjin in Dali Temple, this imperial historian was wearing a crimson official robe, with three long beards fluttering, he was a middle-aged beautiful man, and after entering the hall, he did not hide the anger on his face, and sat down on the stool in the front row.

After Yang Zhao arrived, he casually comforted Ji Wen and immediately went to greet Yang Shenjin.

"Yang Zhongcheng is healthy, I was fortunate to see your beautiful concubine Pearl last night, I am longing, I don't know if you can give it to me?"

Xue Bai looked at it and saw that Yang Shenjin's face was getting more angry, and he thought that this red-robed high-ranking official was about to have a seizure.

Yang Shenjin just raised his hand and waved, and said lightly: "Yang joins the army, forgive me, it's inconvenient to send it." ”

Yang Zhao was stunned.

He saw that Yang Shenjin didn't dare to come out last night, obviously he wanted to swallow his anger, and the beautiful concubine Mingzhu couldn't keep it anyway, so it was better to be a favor, so he said a few words for Yang Shenjin.

Unexpectedly, Yang Shenjin couldn't put down the shelf today, so he didn't send it.

Yang Zhao snorted coldly, glanced left and right, and stood on Ji Wen's side.

Xue Bai was curious about who Yang Shenjin was trying to attack with a face full of anger? It can't be for Li Linfu.

After a while, the right henchmen arrived.

Xue Bai finally determined who Wang Ji was in the crowd, which was a little unexpected.

Wang Jie, who made everyone jealous, looked very modest, and after seeing Yang Shenjin, he bowed his back slightly, called "Uncle Cousin" in his mouth, and stood behind Yang Shenjin respectfully.

If it weren't for the arrogant and arrogant No. 1 evil young king in the capital who allowed him to call him "Grandpa", and he was the only one in the hall wearing a light red official robe, Xue Bai would still think he was a small official.

If you don't understand the official system of the Tang Dynasty, Wang Ji does seem to be just a household Langzhong, and he is only from the fifth grade.

The official system of the Tang Dynasty has grades, knights, honors, ranks, and dispatches, and Wang Jiemen is a member of the ranks, with short qualifications, and no lord to inherit, so the rank is indeed not high.

But in fact, to look at the power of an official, you can't look at the rank, you have to look at the dispatch.

For example, he is also a five-grade official, and Dr. Du Youlin's Shanzan is just a loose official and has no real power.

Wang Ji was relied on by the sage, who thought he was a capable minister and felt that things were left to him to do the most assured, so he gave him a goldfish belt and a goldfish charm, and in just a few years, he held more than a dozen positions, and more than a dozen positions were important positions and fat differences.

Taxes, peace, public security, transportation, palace construction, impeachment of officials, etc., half of the affairs of the imperial court can be interrogated by Wang Jie, although he did not pay homage to the prime minister, it is never an exaggeration to call him a "vice minister".

Such a powerful figure is feared by everyone in the government and the opposition.

But what shocked Xue Bai was Yang Shenjin's performance.

Yang Shenjin did not get angry with Ji Wen and Yang Zhao who copied his other house, but dared to be very unkind to Wang Jie, calling him by his name and arrogance.

"Wang Jie! You also heard about last night's incident, this is the friend you made?! ”

"Uncle cousin is angry, it's my nephew's fault."

Wang Ji really admitted his mistake, as if he handled the case last night.

Xue Bai noticed that as soon as Wang Ji opened his mouth to speak, the officials in the hall all quieted down and waited with bated breath. Wang Gong bowed down to admit his mistake, and the officials in the hall all bowed their heads, as if they were the ones who had done the wrong thing.

Only Yang Shenjin turned a blind eye to this situation, or he was deliberately using his relationship with Wang Ji to show face to everyone.

Maybe they got along like this for twenty or thirty years, maybe Wang Ji received countless favors from him, which made him dare to teach his nephew a lesson in the dignified right minister's mansion with his uncle's style, even if this nephew was relied on by the saint and the right minister.

Gynwin watched this scene coldly.

Although he had just experienced the pain of losing his son, he couldn't help but sneer slightly.

He was more sure he wouldn't lose because he picked a good opponent from the start.

~~

The position of the people in the hall is a little delicate.

On the right, Yang Shenjin sat above, Wang Jie, Wang Weld, and Wang Zhun stood behind him, and Xue Bai, Guo Qianli, and several Jin Wuwei generals stood below.

On the left, there are many people standing.

But it's hard to say who is really on the same side as Wang Jie.

~~

There was finally movement behind the screen, and Li Linfu arrived.

Immediately afterwards, a Qianniuwei general hurriedly came and reported outside the door.

"The murderer has been found."

Xue Bai was shocked in his heart, but his face was filled with some joy, and he raised the corners of his mouth and smiled.

Yang Zhao reacted faster, and had already clapped his hands and shouted, "Okay!" ”

The Qianniuwei general waited for a while before he said: "This person was injured in the northeast corner of Daozheng Fang, and when he was pursued, he refused to be captured and died. ”

"Keep the hunt going."

"Whoa."

Li Linfu said: "What do you think of what happened last night?" ”

"Right Phase." Ji Wen had already prepared, and stood in the hall as if he was rushing, and said, "The dead man of the East Palace was originally hidden in Yang Zhongcheng's other mansion......"

"Fart." Guo Qianli didn't notice his indecent words, and interrupted loudly: "Open your eyes and talk nonsense, many of my brothers have searched all night, can there be any dead people in the East Palace who don't know, you dare to ...... When who's a fool? ”

Yang Zhao smiled, he didn't find any weapons anyway, and the result had already been reported to the right minister. Therefore, I wanted to sell Yang Shenjin a favor today, but I didn't expect to be rejected.

But although Yang Shenjin is looking for death, Ji Wen is indeed talking nonsense with his eyes open, and he still dares to fool the right minister.

"Please listen to my explanation." Ji Wen hurriedly said: "The dead soldiers of the East Palace were indeed in the Yang family's other house, and it was because someone leaked the news that they escaped in advance. ”

"Who?"

"It must be Xue Bai!" Gwen raised his hand and pointed.

He had already finished the draft and immediately talked about it.

"Xue Bai colluded with the East Palace, and the person who helped him liaise with the East Palace was the crown prince Liangdi Du. I noticed this, so I temporarily left Xue Bai in Jingzhao Mansion and sent someone to detain Du. However, Han Chaozong helped Xue Bai leave Jingzhao Mansion, and he led people to kill my Xuanyangfang mansion, took the Du family away, and notified the dead soldiers of the East Palace to evacuate. ”

Gevenn only got a report from the slave maid, and it was a young man and woman who came in with two guards and snatched a beautiful woman.

Who the beautiful woman was, the slave didn't know at all, at first he thought it was a daughter snatched by his son, or he heard that it was Du Youlin's daughter in the right prime minister's mansion.

He immediately used the intuition of a veteran in prison to determine that this was an opportunity to bite Xue Bai and Du Zhai to death.

Nothing else matters, what is the right minister most afraid of?

- Collusion with the East Palace.

When you think about it this way, everything that happens after you can be explained.

"Xin XII must have been trying to stop this, so he was killed by the dead soldiers of the East Palace. After that, it must have been Xue Bai's secret guidance that made the dead soldiers of the East Palace feel like no one, so that more than 30 people died overnight! Even my son ...... My son ......"

At this point, Ji Wen choked up for a while, and sobbed: "I beg the right minister, allow me to torture Yang Shenjin and Xue Bai for interrogation!" ”

Luo Xizao raised his head, his eyes were full of light, and he echoed: "Right Minister, what Ji Facao said is reasonable, and the truth is revealed!" ”

Yang Shenjin and Xue Bai were very calm, silently waiting for Li Linfu to ask.

"Shen Jin, what do you say?"

"I have searched and searched, and the right Xiangru thinks that I have left the house to harbor the dead soldiers in the East Palace, and I have nothing to say."

Yang Shenjin is indeed blind, but there are iron-clad facts.

Li Linfu deliberately sighed and said, "What a waste of self-cultivation." ”

He really doesn't like Yang Shenjin recently, but after all, he is his own person, which doesn't mean that he will be eliminated soon.

This time, he listened to Ji Wen's report, and he really thought that he had found the dead man in the East Palace. As a result, I searched and searched, and I can only say that I am too disappointed in Jiwen!

When is it? The saint is over sixty years old. And in order to ascend the throne, he befriended Concubine Wu Hui and wholeheartedly helped King Shou to become the prince, and once designed the former prince to brew the case of the three concubines with his own hands, so that the saint killed three sons in one day.

If Lee Heng is allowed to ascend the throne one day, he will be beheaded all over the house!

Worried, worried.

What is Ke Geewen doing? handled Wei Jian's case, but Donggong was unharmed. Jiwen has been making money for a whole year, and it's not enough? At the moment of last night's big event, I dare to coax him as a fool!

"Xue Bai, you said."

Xue Bai was indignant and said: "Ji Wen has been in charge of the prison for many years, and his ability to fabricate charges is too powerful, I accept my fate and am willing to die." ”

He seemed to consciously can't say anything about Geven, and simply broke the can.

But this attitude is different from Yang Shenjin, Yang Shenjin is showing face to Li Linfu, and Xue Bai is just a teenager with a bad heart, and he is angry with Ji Wen.

"The face is for you to say."

"Yes, Ji Wen wants to detain the prince Liangdi Du, but why didn't he take Du Erniang and take Du Damiang? When I came out of Jingzhao Mansion, the Yang family's mansion had already been surrounded, how could I notify the dead to transfer? ”

The more he talked, the more angry he became, and in the end, Xue Bai didn't explain at all, and instead attacked Ji Wen.

"Also, Ji Wen said, 'The dead soldiers in the East Palace are like no one', when I walked to the East Market, I saw with my own eyes that he had just met a few dead soldiers in the East Palace, so he fled with more than 20 people flying horses, and if he took the thief like this, he would not be able to get it in his life!"

The last resounding sentence made Guo Qianli unable to bear it anymore, and jumped to his feet and shouted: "Right Phase!" Givin is a piece of shit, a big piece of shit! The end is going to be by him! There are dozens of people in Jin Wuwei to prove this! ”

Ji Wen defended: "I only have a team of right guards to escort, and it is your Jin Wuwei who will follow and escape......"

"Everyone saw you escape! The last general will not understand, what is there to talk about such an obvious thing? Looking for it, I finally found it, and I couldn't even drag it for a while. With a waste like you, how can you bring down the East Palace?! Have all of us sinned against the prince of a country just so that you can carry sacks of treasure? By that day, I'll be killed by your waste sooner or later, wow! ”

"Guo Qianli!" Ji Wen was furious, pointed at Guo Qianli and screamed, "I see that you are also colluding with the East Palace!" ”

"Why do you say that I colluded with Donggong?!"

"You're a right-handed soldier...... I've long suspected that you're from the East Palace! ”

What Ji Wen said is actually referring to Guo Qianli's personality, character, resume, etc., which is indeed not like the right minister.

"You just said, 'Wait until that day', what day did you say it was?! Under the gate of the East Palace. ”

"Fuck your big fart!" Guo Qianli was furious.

"You ......"

"Fuck your big fart! When you open your mouth, you amplify the stinky fart! ”

"Right Phase! Look at him......"

"Chicken tongue plague, don't talk nonsense, let's fight! I chopped you! ”

Guo Qianli scolded a few words at this time, and a guard from the Prime Minister's Mansion stepped forward and dragged him out.

"Right Phase!" Guo Qianli exclaimed sadly: "Why are you dragging the end of the general?!" The last general is honest, and the last general is loyal to the right minister! ”

"Right Phase! There will be no lie! ”

“……”

The voice grew farther and farther away, and I don't know where he was being dragged to.

But if he can be dragged out, it can be seen that he has reported everything that should be reported, and Li Linfu also believes that what he said is the truth, and there is no need to leave him to scold his mother in the court.

The same is true of Kyauknu, although she is not in the hall, in fact, everything she sees and hears must have been relayed to Li Linfu.

It is precisely because Guo Qianli and Jiaonu are telling the truth, otherwise Ji Wen would have been able to take Xue Bai's life after some analysis.

The confrontation must continue.

When Xue Bai saw Guo Qianli being dragged away, he became excited.

"Geven! You said that I colluded with the East Palace, and the dead soldiers of the East Palace were found out by you? You have done a mess of things, and you have been in Jingzhao Mansion all day to draw your name, can you find out that I have colluded with the East Palace?! I'll you......"

"Presumptuous! Xue Bai, you are too presumptuous! ”

As soon as Li Linfu opened his mouth to drink, Xue Bai immediately closed his voice honestly, lowered his head, and muttered: "Right Xiang, I have nothing to say, just let Ji Wen bury me alive." ”
