The wine and food are all together, the two drink together, talking and laughing.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Zhu Quan took the lead in getting to the point:

"After Mr. Li returns to Beijing, don't forget to say hello to the emperor on behalf of the king."

"Definitely." Li Qing put down his wine glass, "The prince's request will definitely be done, but ...... The requirements of the lower officials, I hope that the prince will also do it. ”

"Oh? What are the requirements? ”

"Smuggling trade."

Zhu Quan's gaze froze, and then returned to normal, "The words of the Marquis of Yongqing, this king can't understand. ”

"Gold ingots confess, you are the mastermind behind the smuggling." Li Qing picked up the fatty mandarin fish, and while savoring it, he said slowly, "The prince doesn't want to make it difficult for the lower officials." ”

Zhu Quan's face changed, and his tone became cold: "Is Yongqing Hou insisting on getting along with this king?" ”

"No, the subordinate is just acting on orders." Li Qing poured himself a drink, and his tone was sincere, "As long as the prince stops, he will never be punished at all, and the lower officials can guarantee it." ”

Zhu Quan was silent and looked at Li Qing directly.

Li Qing was calm and calm, continued to eat and drink, and did not talk about the tension after the collapse at all.

After a long time, Zhu Quan was defeated, and it was the first time he had seen such a shameless person - eating him, drinking him, and showing no mercy at all.

"What is your identity, what is the identity of this king?" Zhu Quan's tone became more and more cold: "This king advises you to think more about yourself in everything." ”

"I don't have to worry about this," Li Qing picked up a cotton handkerchief and wiped the corners of his mouth, "The official affairs of the lower officials are complicated, and there are still widows who have not been dealt with, please understand." ”

"Understand you?" Zhu Quan smiled, "What qualifications do you have to point fingers at this king?" ”

"Is this okay?" Li Qing took out "If I Come".

Zhu Quan got up suddenly, his face changed again and again, and he bowed and saluted: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" ”

"King Ning, please get up." Li Qing got up and helped.

Zhu Quan got up, his face was cloudy, and he seemed to be weighing the pros and cons.

After a while, he said: "The king has also heard about the smuggling, and the king will pay attention to it in the future and try to prevent such incidents from happening." ”

His tone was slightly kind: "This king is Jiang. The vassal king of the west, Jiang. If something like this happens in the west, naturally we can't sit idly by. ”

"Hehe," Li Qing asked with a chuckle, "Do you try to put an end to it, or do you guarantee that there will be no more smuggling?" ”

"How can this king guarantee it?" Zhu Quan consciously gave way, and seeing that Li Qing still refused to give up, his face sank again, "This king said that the smuggling has nothing to do with this king." ”

"There is no evidence, Lord Wang, your status is noble, but what you say can't be used as evidence, right?" Li Qing was still polite, but his tone was also cold: You won't be useful if you give you a chance!

"How can Yongqinghou prove that your evidence can be used as evidence?" Zhu Quan sneered, "Do you really think that a profiteer can bring down this king?" ”

"Heh," Li Qing got up and stretched, his breath melodious: "Someone!" ”

Rub and rub——!

Nearly 100 fans rushed into the palace and came to the pavilion where the two were drinking.

Zhu Quan was stunned, and then he was furious: "Li Qing, you dare? ”

"Tie up!"

Fanzi hesitated, gave up, and stepped forward to detain Zhu Quan.

"Presumptuous!" Zhu Quan was furious: "Who dare in my opinion? ”

No matter how you say it, he is also a vassal king, he once commanded the army and fought on the side, and at this moment, the killing domineering spirit is fully displayed, and Fanzi really doesn't dare to touch him.

"Li Qing, you really want to do something absolutely, right?"

"The path is yours." Li Qing raised his chin towards the hundred households in Dongchang, "Tie up, the Ming Law contains a clear text: Those who act on orders will not be punished!" ”

Baihu hesitated slightly, clenched his fists and said, "Offended the prince." ”

As he spoke, he stepped forward.

"Arrogance!" Zhu Quan roared: "Someone! ”

presently

Rub and rub——!

Another group of people hurried in, all with big shoulders and round waists.

Li Qing said in a cold tone: "If I remember correctly, the vassal king's guard has been cut. ”

Zhu Quan's tone was equally cold: "This Wang family has a great cause, isn't it very reasonable to raise some servants who take care of the family and the hospital?" ”

Li Qing sneered: "Reasonable, tied up!" ”

"Who dares to touch this king?"

The hundreds of households in the East Factory were big for a while, and they didn't know who to listen to for a while, and the same was true for other fans.

Li Qing raised the token in his hand, "King Ning, have you thought about it?" ”

"You ......" Zhu Quan knotted.

"If I Come" is not a chicken feather, it is definitely a veritable arrow!

"Tie up!"

In the end, Zhu Quan compromised, and the price of challenging the imperial power was too great for him to bear.

"This king wants to see how you end." Zhu Quan said ruthlessly, "This matter is not over. ”

Li Qing shrugged his shoulders and casually pointed to a room, "Escort in." ”

King Ning was taken away from custody, and the servants of the palace did not have the support of the prince, so they naturally did not dare to fake the tiger's might, and the stalemate automatically retreated after a moment.

Li Qing sat back in his chair, "Liu Baihu, go and ask the political envoy to come over." ”

"Yes." Liu Baihu is really convinced, even the vassal king dares to tie up, this Yongqing Hou is a ruthless person, "The next official will go and inform him." ”

River. The Xibu political envoy is in Hongdu, and it won't take long to go back and forth.

Most of the dishes on the table had not been moved, Li Qing couldn't bear to waste it, and continued to eat and drink.

After a while, Zhu Panxuan, the prince of King Ning, rushed over and said in a domineering manner:

"Li Qincha, what crime has my father committed?"

"Smuggling!" Li Qing said without raising his head, and did not forget to pick up vegetables.

"What about the evidence?"

"The date of certification is coming, and the political envoy has also gone to inform you." Li Qing said with a smile, "When the time comes, the prince can audit." ”

Zhu Panyan said angrily: "You'd better really have evidence." ”

Li Qing is too lazy to bother with a little child, although Zhu Panyan is not too small.

~

The news of King Ning's detention quickly spread in the mansion, and the people in the mansion were panicked, and there were women crying, worried about their future and fate.

Even the servants of the organic spirit, sneaking out of the house while people were unprepared, ran far away, for fear of being implicated.

In their opinion, a Qincha would never dare to detain the vassal king, and it must be the emperor's intention.

King Ning's smuggling is not known to everyone, and it is not a big secret, it's not that King Ning is not cautious enough, it's really such a big thing, it's difficult not to leak a little rumor.

Especially the domestic servants who secretly participated in smuggling, ran so fast.

When Li Qing heard this, he just smiled faintly and did not stop him.

……

Next.

As soon as Li Qing got up, he saw the little plum who came overnight.

"The situation is under control?"

"People get stolen goods." Xiao Lizi said with a smile, "Capture the thief and capture the king, our family directly tied up the rich gentry's family, and the warehouse was also sealed." ”

"Good." Li Qing's spirits were lifted, "Did you bring it?" ”

"Brought." Xiao Lizi nodded, "That Liu Fushen has already confessed, and he is indeed running an errand for King Ning." ”

Although Li Qing knew this, the dust settled, which still made him relax a lot.

After understanding the details, Li Qing was completely relieved.

Half an hour later, Jiang. The political envoy of Xibu came, and Zhu Panyan also came.

When the personnel arrived, Li Qing officially opened the trial.

The lobby of King Ning's Mansion has been transformed into a 'public court'.

Li Qing presided over the trial, the political envoy juryed, Zhu Panyan observed, and Xiao Lizi acted as the master.

"Let's get started!" Li Qing opened his mouth.

Xiao Lizi screamed: "Bring a witness!" ”

A moment later, Jin Yuan Bao and Liu Fushen were brought up.

"King Daining." Xiao Lizi shouted again.

Then, King Ning walked in with his head held high in a python robe, and said majestically: "Who is suing this king?" ”

Jin Yuan Bao and Liu Fushen trembled and did not dare to speak.

Zhu Quan smiled contemptuously: "Come on, take a seat." ”

Li Qing frowned and looked at Liu Baihu behind him, "Who untied him?" ”

"This world has solved it." Zhu Panyan opened his mouth and asked, "Can my father be convicted?" ”

"Hmm...... Okay. Li Qing no longer cared, and turned to look at King Ning, "King Ning, these two confessed that the sea smuggling was instructed by you, what do you have to say?" ”

"It's just a false accusation out of thin air, and this king needs to explain?" Zhu Quan took the chair given by his son, and the horse was a golden knife, and the momentum was overwhelming.

Li Qing looked at Jin Liu and the others, "King Ning said that you framed them out of thin air." ”

The two lowered their eyebrows and did not dare to speak.

Li Qing sneered: "In this case, drag down this prisoner who framed King Ning and behead him." ”

After a pause, "Smuggling and framing the vassal king, the two crimes will be punished together, the family wealth will be confiscated, and the clansmen will be exiled to the border." ”

"Wronged, the grass people are wronged!"

The gold ingots took the lead in shouting grievances, and Liu Fushen followed.

Li Qing waved his hand, and Fanzi, who had already stepped forward, stepped aside again.

"What's the grievance?"

Jin Yuan Bao was ruthless, gritted his teeth and said: "The grass people are indeed instructed by King Ning, and the porcelain is sold to Jian'an, which is the intention of King Ning, and in return, you can get an additional share of the profits......"

If you don't die as a friend of the Dao, you have to die in poverty, and the situation is compelling, and the gold ingots can't take care of offending King Ning, so they will explain everything they know in detail.

Liu Fushen on the side also recognized the situation, either King Ning was unlucky, or his whole family was unlucky, gritted his teeth, and began to explain.

Compared with gold ingots, he is responsible for Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and the goods are more and more miscellaneous, and the explanation is more detailed, and even who to connect with and how to go to sea.

For Li Qing, this is really a surprise, with this information, it is easier to clear the smuggling thieves.

"You're tired of being alive, aren't you?" Zhu Quan shouted: "Do you know what the crime of framing the vassal king is? ”

"Don't be impatient." Li Qing smiled and said, "Sit down first, Ben Qin will not wronged a good person." ”

Then, looking at the two of them, "Do you have conclusive evidence to prove that you were instructed by King Ning?" ”

At this point, the two knew that there was no way out, so they nodded decisively:

"The grass people have a letter written by King Ning."

The two spoke in unison.

"Handwriting can be imitated, what does that mean?" Zhu Quan is still stubborn: As long as I don't admit it, even if the evidence is ironclad, Li Qing will not dare to punish me.

Li Qing asked rhetorically: "Can King Ning know them?" ”

"I don't know!"

"I don't know each other, so I guess I haven't been in touch with each other?"

Zhu Quan tried his best to clear it at the moment, and snorted: "Of course." ”

Li Qing asked again: "You haven't had any contacts, how did they know your handwriting, King Ning?" ”

"This king ......" Zhu Quan was stuck, and simply put it away, "I don't know." ”

Next, Zhu Quan began to lie on the skin, asking three questions, not knowing, and refusing to admit any relationship with smuggling.

It's like 'as long as I don't admit it, no one can judge me'.

In this way, Jin Liu and the others were passive, they were now completely on the opposite side of King Ning, and they knew very well that if this was the case, they would definitely not have a good life in the future.

As a result, there are more black materials to shake, such as: close contacts with literati, good friends with officials, and worship the Heavenly Master of Longhu Mountain as a teacher......

Although these have nothing to do with smuggling cases, they are much more serious than the nature of smuggling cases.

What is the intention of a vassal king to make friends with literati and local officials, and to worship the national teacher as a teacher?

Zhu Quan was a little panicked, who is Zhu Laosi, he knows, if this is transmitted back to Beijing, the consequences will be ......

"Yes, this king has smuggled it, what's the matter?!"
