"Master Liang, what's wrong with you?"

Many students stood up in panic when they saw Master Liang spitting blood from his mouth.

However, before they could come forward, they also vomited blood and fell to the ground like Master Liang.

"Yes, it's poisonous."

Zhang Fengyi spit out the food in her mouth unhurriedly, picked up the tea on the side and rinsed her mouth, and then said lightly.

Liang Shi looked at him calmly, and immediately reacted, glaring at him angrily: "You dare to do this!" ”

"Hey, Master Liang, the newly established Jinyi Guard of the Emperor has been arresting our people everywhere recently, and I'm afraid that our place will be exposed sooner or later." Zhang Fengyi sighed softly.

"So what, if we sit upright, and it is also a righteous thing to sue Li Dang, how can we be afraid of them?"

When Zhang Fengyi heard this, she pretended to be surprised and said, "Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you, I arranged for someone to do the matter of the emperor's eldest grandson." ”

When Master Liang heard this, his eyes widened in an instant, and he was even more shocked than his own poisoning.

"You...... You, rebel thief! ”

"Hehe......" Zhang Fengyi smiled, "Yes, I am a rebel and thief, but don't worry, I will not be soon, you are the head of the virtuous forest, and you are highly respected, so you should take this matter!" ”

He has already arranged it, Zhang Zongyi's family and heirs are all in his hands, this is his consistent way of doing things, including Fan Guangyang, who died before, and his family members have also been hidden by him.

Under Zhang Zongyi's arrangement, it will only be this Liang Master who dominates everything, and he can lead these disciples who are loyal to him to get out.

"You...... Burst! ”

Master Liang's angry eyes widened, and he spat out a mouthful of blood, how could he not have imagined that he would not only be poisoned by this Zhang Fengyi today, but also be discredited with the crime of murdering the emperor's grandson.

Zhang Fengyi looked at him with a smile on her face until he was silent and did not blink.

Nearly half of the other students also died, and the rest of the people were like Zhang Fengyi who didn't eat at all.

Zhang Ziyi looked at the dead one and said softly: "It's a pity, Master Liang is gone, and his old relationships with his protégés have also been broken, which is also a big loss for us." ”

"This old stubborn should have died a long time ago, with him, we are always tied up in doing things, and we can go further."

Zhang Fengyi glanced at the dead Liang Shi and said softly.

Zhang Ziyi sighed lightly, and had to agree with this truth.

Among the four hall masters, Liang Shi has the oldest qualifications, but his thinking is also the most stubborn, and he always sticks to the bottom line, advocating the restoration of the court situation of co-governance with the monarch in the Song Dynasty, and Zhang Fengyi and Zhang Ziyi, the two new hall masters, have a more "flexible" bottom line.

"How can Wang Xing explain over there?"

Zhang Ziyi said with some worry.

Wang Xing was the last of the four of them, and he had already left.

Zhang Fengyi's eyes narrowed slightly, and she said softly: "Master Liang sacrificed his life to get rid of me and others, Wang Xing, he will understand." ”

Zhang Ziyi nodded lightly, Wang Xing is not as stubborn as Master Liang, he should still be able to convince.

"You guys hurry up and clean up, arrange according to the plan, this place is not suitable for a long time, let's leave quickly after the arrangement!"

Zhang Ziyi retracted her gaze and instructed the remaining students.

"Yes!"

Everyone saluted, and then they took action, put away their own dishes and chopsticks, leaving only Liang Shi and the others, the tableware, and then moved their positions again, posing as if they had committed suicide by taking poison.

Zhang Fengyi then took out a masterstroke written in Liang Shi's handwriting, in which Liang Shi denounced Zhu Yuanzhang's atrocities against the officials and gentry, and frankly admitted to murdering the emperor and grandson.

When Zhang Fengyi and the others had just packed up and left, not long after leaving, Chen Su led the Jinyi Guard to gallop over.

Zhang Fengyi, who had just hid in the mountains, couldn't help but be very surprised when she saw this brocade guard coming so quickly.

He really didn't expect Jinyiwei to come so fast, if their movements were slower, maybe they would be directly blocked in the study by Jinyiwei.

Xianlin Study, the Jinyi Guard Brigade surged in, quickly surrounded this small study, and Chen Su immediately led people to break in.

Seeing that it was unusually quiet all around, Chen Su couldn't help frowning slightly, and shouted in a deep voice: "Look around!" ”

"Yes!"

Everyone received the order and began to break into various rooms to search, and soon found Liang Shi and others who died in the wing:

"Here, my lord!"

When Chen Su heard the sound, he immediately led people to rush into the wing, and then saw Master Liang and the students who had been poisoned.

They had now moved back to their seats, lying quietly on their stomachs, as if they were asleep.

"My lord, these people are dead, and here is a letter, which must have been written by the old man who sat at the top."

The subordinate reported respectfully, and then handed over the letter.

Chen Su frowned and took it, and when he saw the content on it clearly, he was immediately shocked and hurriedly put it away.

"Let's see if there are any other anomalies!"

"Yes!"

Chen Su instructed his subordinates to investigate again, but they didn't find anything else, as if these people had made an appointment to commit suicide by taking poison together.

But Chen Su was still skeptical, as soon as they got Xianlin's position, these people took the poison one step in advance, which was too coincidental!

For the sake of prudence, Chen Su ordered someone to arrest a few villagers in the village and interrogate them, but the people in the study lived in a simple place, and these villagers basically did not know the situation.

Helpless, Chen Su could only put away the bodies of these people first, and returned to Jingshi with the letter from Master Liang.

The next day, Chen Su handed these over to Li Wei.

"My lord, when we arrived, all the people in Xianlin's study were dead, and the Liang Shi that Zhang Zongyi said was also among them, except for some books in the study, there was nothing special in the study, this letter was found on the desk of Liang Shi, it should have been written by him, which was quite resentful of His Majesty, and he also admitted in the letter that he had murdered his grandson."

Chen Su reported these things to Li Wei in detail.

Li Wei looked at the letter in his hand and couldn't help but be a little surprised.

The letter said that the method of Liang Shi and others to murder Zhu Xiongying was very simple, just to replace the medicinal materials with inferior products with slightly worse effects, and then boil them with a high fire of clear soup to reduce the efficacy of the medicine.

Originally, the ordinary wind and cold, and the strong resistance could be cured if he was not cured, but the emperor and grandson were young and weak, and when the medicine stone was ineffective, he could not resist it, and he died.

And the reason why they murdered the emperor and grandson was only said to be revenge, but Li Wei felt that it was not so simple.

As for Queen Ma's matter, there was no mention of it, as if they had nothing to do with it.

"My lord, I don't think this matter is so simple, these people died too timely, and the study was also cleaned up, obviously someone deliberately arranged it!"

Chen Su said.

Li Wei frowned and was silent, and nodded lightly after a while: "Well, I know." ”

These people recruited by Zhang Zongyi died cleanly, and all the clues were broken at this time, and he didn't know how to investigate for a while.

"My lord, why don't I interrogate these people again?"

Chen Su asked tentatively.

There are not many of these people who have been arrested and put in prison who have really been punished by him, and many of them have been recruited by relying on Li Wei's method of scare, and he feels that it is inevitable to move these people again.

Li Wei pondered for a moment, but still said, "Wait first, I'll go and tell Your Majesty." ”

"Yes, do as you are told." Chen Su said yes.

Li Wei took the letter and the confessions of Zhang Zongyi and others with him, and went to the palace.

Outside the noon gate of the palace, a group of ministers saw that the book was useless, so they came directly to the palace gate and knelt on the ground, crying about the lawlessness of Jinyiwei, and begging Zhu Yuanzhang to take back his life.

"Your Majesty, beg Your Majesty to take back your fate, Jinyiwei is doing nonsense, wantonly arresting courtiers, and beating them into tricks, if it goes on like this, how can the law of the country exist?"

"Please take back the right to handle the case from Jinyiwei, they are simply not human."

"Li Wei took revenge for personal gain, framed the mean, please Your Majesty severely punish Li Wei......"

The ministers knelt outside the palace gate and cried, which was even more sad than the death of their own father. However, Zhu Yuanzhang ignored this and didn't even let them enter the palace gate.

Outside the gate of Li Wei Palace, I couldn't help but feel amazed when I saw this scene, this scene was even more lively than the meeting when Queen Ma just died.

At that time, although the ministers cried hard, they obviously did not have the true feelings they have now.

"Ladies and gentlemen, who are you crying about?" Li Wei asked curiously.

When the ministers heard the voice, they immediately stopped crying and looked at him.

"Li Wei, you traitor is doing evil, harming the court, and this official is fighting with you!"

Wang Shi looked at him with red eyes, and pounced on him with a roar.

Li Wei was startled and hurriedly dodged back.

When the other civil officials saw the king's actions, their eyes suddenly lit up, and they shouted that they were about to come up to group Ou Li Wei.

Li Wei immediately screamed when he saw this, turned around and ran into the palace gate.

The guards did not stop him, but they stopped the ministers, who did not have the privilege of Li Wei to enter and exit freely.

"Li Wei, don't run if you have the ability!" Wang Shi shouted.

Li Wei glanced back when he ran, and saw that they were all stopped by the guards, so he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, stopped and crossed his waist and said: "What kind of ability are so many of you, you have the ability to fight alone!" ”

Wang Shi was stunned, and then immediately agreed: "Okay, you come out, I'll fight you alone!" ”

"You come in!" Li Wei beckoned to him.

Wang Shi looked at the guards who were blocking the ministers from entering, and suddenly became angry: "You, shameless coward! You come out! ”

"Cut!"

Li Wei cut it disdainfully, too lazy to have a war of words with him, and turned around directly to ask Zhu Yuanzhang.

Wang Shi and the others kept shouting and scolding at the gate outside the palace, and watched him leave helplessly.

In the Wuying Palace, Li Wei presented the evidence and testimony to Zhu Yuanzhang and reported the results of the interrogation in detail in the past few days.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at these testimonial evidences, and his face was as gloomy as water.

The drugs in the palace are specially tested by someone, but the person who tested the medicine is not the imperial doctor, and can only test whether there is poison in the medicine, and cannot judge the effect of the medicine.

However, what Liang Shi's letter said was a tricky method, which only reduced the efficacy of the medicine, so that the emperor's grandson died after ineffective treatment, which was simply impossible to prevent.

Of course, the probability of success of this method is also very low, but if the emperor's grandson has a stronger physique and resists the wind and cold by himself, they will be in vain.

"Your Majesty, the people in the Xianlin Study have all died, and now the clues are broken, what do you think will happen next?"

Li Wei asked helplessly.

When it comes to handling cases, he is completely a layman, and he can still rely on firepower to fight a war, but he can't try a case.

"Hmph, what should I do? Isn't that simple? Zhu Yuanzhang snorted coldly.

Li Wei was surprised: "Please make it clear to Your Majesty." ”

"Aren't they all protégés, then through these people now, exhaustively investigate their protégés, even if you can't wipe out all these people, you can still frustrate them!"

Zhu Yuanzhang said coldly.

Li Wei was shocked when he heard this, Zhu Yuanzhang's method is really simple and direct, but this is too ruthless, right?

Now there are hundreds of people in prison, and if you investigate their relatives and friends' protégés, the number will not be at sea!

"Your Majesty, isn't this appropriate?" Li Wei said with some surprise.

Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand: "There's nothing wrong with it, you just do what we say, anyone who has something to do with this matter will be punished, and those who have an old relationship with them will be beheaded and their homes will be raided!" ”

Li Wei was secretly frightened when he heard this, this old Zhu seemed to be more ruthless than before!

"By the way, this case is handled as corruption, and the matter of the emperor and grandson should not be publicized." After Zhu Yuanzhang finished speaking, he instructed again.

Li Wei sighed lightly in his heart, and arched his hand: "The minister obeys the order." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang paused, and then said: "After the execution of these people, you have to continue to investigate, not only to track down this virtuous forest, but also to find out other illegal nobles, corrupt officials and corrupt officials, one is counted as one, and we have to find out!" ”

"Yes."

Li Wei agreed, but secretly couldn't help pouting, according to what he said, if he continued to investigate, it would be endless.

Zhu Yuanzhang finished ordering these before finally stopping.

"Your Majesty, if there is nothing else, the minister will retire." Li Wei arched his hand.

"Hmm."

Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand lightly.

Seeing this, Li Wei turned around to leave, but thinking of the group of ministers in front of the palace gate, he paused again and turned to look at Zhu Yuanzhang: "Your Majesty, can you send me two guards?" ”

Zhu Yuanzhang looked up at him in surprise: "What's wrong?" ”

"Hey, those ministers at the door are fierce, they were almost not beaten by them when they came in just now!"

Li Wei sighed and complained.

Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned, and his face was a little unhappy.

He was also very annoyed by these Wenchen who were crying outside the palace, but this time because of the matter of Jinyiwei, Wenchen almost went out en masse, and he couldn't kill them all, otherwise the court would be suspended.

After thinking about it, Zhu Yuanzhang handed over the matter to Li Wei, the culprit: "Okay, let's send you more people, you go and blow them all away, and if you don't leave, you will be arrested and imprisoned." ”

"Uh, okay."

Li Wei agreed with some reluctance, it seems that this time he is really going to become a big villain.

Those officials outside the palace gate are not guilty, if they really can't get away and are arrested by him for no reason, then he is really doing nonsense.
