Chapter 31: Judgment

Huang Fu was restless, tossing and turning just couldn't sleep, this radical approach, not only did not have the desired effect, but may provoke anger.

If the matter is revealed, the fire will be extinguished for him.

Damn, the prince suddenly returned to Beijing to disrupt the whole plan, and Li Qing also came back, what should I do now...... Huang Fu's thoughts were flying, and his heart was full of anxiety.

He couldn't sleep horizontally, so he comforted himself, "Li Shimian is dead, the emperor's anger should have disappeared, this thing is secret, few people know, and I am not the only one involved, the sky is falling, everyone is done playing together......"

As he was muttering to himself, he saw a figure outside the window, he sat up in shock, turned his head and said, "Who?" ”

The moonlight outside the window is bright, and there are still human figures.

"Is it a hallucination?"

Huang Fu frowned, and the ghost wanted to verify it, so he put on his shoes and went out of the room.

"Squeak~!"

As soon as the door opened, the soft moonlight came into his eyes, but soon his eyes were dark and unconscious.

……

Huang Fu opened his eyes again, and he was in an unknown wasteland, overgrown with weeds, mosquitoes buzzing, and his buttocks hurt, but his neck hurt even more.

"Wake up."

Huang Fu was startled, turned his head stiffly, and his pupils shrank suddenly, "Li Shangshu? ”

"It's me." Li Qing sneered, "Li Shimian has already confessed, and it was at your instigation that he deliberately scolded the emperor, causing the emperor to be critically ill." ”

Huang Fu's face changed greatly, but then he calmed down again: "Li Shangshu, you need evidence when you speak." ”

"Well, that's the proof." Li Qing took out Li Shimian's testimony, "Take a good look." ”

The moonlight was bright, and if you looked closely, you could still see the words clearly, Huang Fu soon sweated on his forehead, and he found that Li Shimian had sold him cleanly.

"I... I ......" Huang Fu trembled, his face full of fear.

Soon, he thought of something, suddenly opened his mouth, stuffed the testimony directly into his mouth, chewed casually, stretched his neck and swallowed.

"Now...... Ahem, ahem..., the evidence is gone. ”

Li Qing smiled indifferently, "It seems that you admit it!" ”

Huang Fu also grinned: "So what, anyway, if you have no evidence, how can the imperial court handle the case, especially a big man like me, without evidence?"

Li Shangshu, it's you who should be worried now, haha......"

There is no one around, he has no scruples, Li Shimian is dead, and now the confession is gone, and the human and material evidence is gone, what is he afraid of.

The momentum of the former Shangshu was revealed again, and the villain's face was fully revealed.

Li Qing smiled: "Do you really think that I brought you here to tell you the evidence?" ”

"Huh?" Huang Fu's smile froze, and he said angrily: "You dare to use lynching? ”

"You dare to murder the emperor, why don't I dare to lynch him?" Li Qing smiled and asked, "What do you think of this place as a resting place?" ”

"You're going to kill me?" Huang Fu shuddered.

"Or else?" Li Qing asked rhetorically, "I can't mess around with you in the middle of the night?" ”

"You ......"

At this time, Huang Fu was really scared, he knew that Li Qing had done it.

Li Qing sighed: "You served as the chief secretary of the two counties in the Hongwu Dynasty, and then you wrote on national affairs, which was appreciated by Taizu, and promoted to the right servant of the Ministry of Industry, which can be described as a step to the sky;

During the Jianwen Dynasty, he was also very relied on, although he was not as good as Qi Fanghuang, but he was much better than others;

After Taizong's martyrdom, you attached to Taizong, and Taizong did not pursue it, but do you know that you are also on the list of traitors? ”

Huang Fu's face was ugly and he was silent.

Li Qing said again: "After Taizong recruited Jiaozhi, he appointed you as the political envoy of Jiaozhi Chengxuan, and the political envoy of Jiaozhi, and the punishment was according to the procuratorial envoy;

After the current emperor ascends the throne, he will let you take charge of the Zhan Mansion;

Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the four emperors have been very gracious to you, why do you want to do this? ”

Li Qing's tone was cold: "You are really a good hand to play cards, with your resume, he will return to his hometown one day, and his children and grandchildren will enjoy the blessings, wouldn't they be happy?" ”

He smiled bitterly and shook his head: "People, they are always not satisfied, fighting Mien, promoting Mi hatred, nothing more than that; How many officials have fallen to the ground in Taizu, and how many people are like you, who have been officials to the point where you are, what else is there to be dissatisfied with?

Even if you don't go back to Nanjing and don't get involved in maritime trade, how will your life be bad? ”

Huang Fu was silent, at this moment, he really regretted it, but it was too late.

"Let's talk about it." Li Qing said seriously, "Explain truthfully, and my family will not be affected, I can guarantee this." ”

Huang Fu was still silent, and after a long time, he sighed: "You ask!" ”

"You tampered with the edict?"

"It's not." Huang Fu shook his head and asked, "The emperor isn't going to make a big deal about it, is he?" ”

Li Qing heard the sound outside the strings, nodded and said: "Don't worry, those people will end up like you, no one wants to murder the emperor, and there are no traitors in the court, so you don't have to worry about your family being retaliated against by your accomplices." ”

"The matter of the edict was done by Liu Guan, the left capital of the Imperial Palace, and Wang Zhang, the right capital of the Imperial History, and this is also their vote to the six departments." Huang Fu put his mind at ease and said it very simply.

Li Qing nodded: "Do you know who the eunuch who dropped the edict is?" ”

"I don't know."

Li Qing asked again: "Who among the six departments are involved in this matter?" ”

"There are also two waiters from my Ministry of Works, as well as Zhang Ben, the waiter of your military department, and Guo Zi, the waiter of the household department." Huang Fu said.

"Jian Yi and Natsuhara Yoshiko participated?" Li Qing asked a crucial question.

Huang Fu shook his head: "No, but it's ......"

He asked rhetorically, "Do you think the two of them don't know the details?" ”

"Well, too." Li Qing smiled, "You are not as good as them, depending on how many people know how to be officials, they will always win on both sides, at least they will not lose." ”

Huang Fu nodded with a wry smile, and his tone was sarcastic: "Jian Yi is a non-stick pan, Xia Yuanji is talented and has a good reputation, but it is by no means as glamorous as it seems, how can there be a few clean officials?"

Don't talk about my Ming Dynasty, Han, Tang, Song and Yuan, which is not so, it's just a matter of becoming a king and losing a coward, as long as it doesn't fall, all of them are good officials for the country and the people, besides, who doesn't want to get more?

Jian Yi and Xia Yuanji are just standing and standing. ”

Li Qing shook his head slightly: "I can't say that, they still have political achievements, that is, Huang Shangshu, you, also have credit to Sheji, whether it is a squire, or a political envoy, an envoy, or a scholar, you have done a very good job.

Although you have committed a heinous sin, but merit is merit, and merit is fault, at least before this incident, I personally still admired you, and so did the emperor. ”

Hearing this, Huang Fu was completely silent, and his intestines were full of remorse.

"Can you leave me a whole corpse?"

"Yes."

……

Li Qing came out in a hurry, and he didn't bring anything to do, so he turned back to the house to get a hoe, and after burying people, it was almost dawn.

He hid the hoe in the haystack and didn't take it with him, because he would use it later.

~

Li Qing ate a bowl of noodles in a restaurant, and then entered the palace as if nothing was wrong and treated Xiaopang.

Qianqing Palace, Inner Temple.

After hearing about the people involved, Xiaopang was more angry than angry, and finally just sighed and didn't say anything.

Zhu Zhanji was furious, and shouted that Huang Fu was cheap, and he should be sentenced to death and exterminated.

"Alright, don't be angry." Fat sighed, "There are enough things now, and you can't miss a big thing because of a momentary pleasure." ”

Li Qing opened the needle box and said, "Your Majesty, it's time for acupuncture." ”

Chubby nodded, got up and lay down on the bed, "Zhanji, you go get busy first." ”

"Yes, the retainers are retired."

Li Qing took out the silver needle, disinfected it, and pricked the needle.

"Dealing with government affairs should not exceed an hour, and the last noon dynasty will be completed." Li Qing instructed while acupuncture, "Let the prince be in charge of the early dynasty, and let him do it, he has the ability to do it well." ”

"Uh-huh, I know Brother Qing." The little chubby chin rested on his arm, and his face relaxed, "Brother Qing, tell me a story." ”

Li Qing smiled, "Then talk about the three heroes fighting Lu Bu?" ”

"Done." Chubby said with a smile.

Even though he had heard it decades ago, he still wanted to hear it.

……

……

Noon.

Chubby went to court as promised.

Looking at the emperor with a good complexion, the ministers were surprised, but their faces were full of joy, at least on the surface.

The atmosphere of the court meeting was peaceful, and the turbulent undercurrent returned to calm.

After the afternoon dynasty dispersed, the news of Huang Fu's disappearance also came out, and some people with ghosts in their hearts couldn't help but think of something, but they weren't sure.

~

It's night.

Li Qing set off again, this time with more goals, so he started faster, and the guy was well prepared.

The squire of the household department, the squire of the military department, the left and right waiters of the Ministry of Works, and the left and right of the Imperial Court of the Metropolitan Procuratorate were all tied up in the wilderness by Li Qing.

Several people were shocked and angry, and more fearful.

Li Qing looked at them coldly and began the trial: "Liu Du Yushi, who are the eunuchs in the palace involved in the matter of dropping the edict?" ”

"Li Qing, you dare to ......"

"Poof......

A few people only felt a flash of cold light, and then looked at it, and the imperial history of the left capital of the dignified capital was gone.

The strong smell of blood irritates the nasal passages, provokes nerves, and makes them feel like they are falling into an ice cellar.

Li Qing raised the knife in his hand, shook off the blood stains on the knife, and asked, "Wang Du Yushi, you can talk about it." ”

"Yongqing Hou spares his life, I say, I say everything." Wang Zhang hurriedly said, "It's the little yellow door on duty in the imperial study, Xiao Chenzi, Xiao Liuzi, and Xiao Dezi." ”

"Anything else?"

"No," Wang Zhang shook his head and said, "The fewer people who know about such a big matter, the better." ”

"Yes." Li Qing nodded, and then raised his hand.

"Ahh Murder, Li Qing kills people......! "A few squires cried wolf howls, and their hearts and galls were broken.

Li Qing stepped forward and slashed the most cheerful Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Works, and the howls of the other three stopped abruptly.

"Lord Shangshu, I am your subordinate, you said that you will protect ......"

"Poof......!" The head of the soldier fell to the ground and died in Huangquan.

The head of the household and the right waiter of the Ministry of Works were so frightened that their voices changed their tunes, and they said sharply: "Li Shangshu, you ask, you ask......

"No need." Li Qing shook his head slowly.

"Li Qing, you don't have to die well......!"

"Li Qing, I'll go to your mother's ......!"

"Puff ......"

The two good heads fell to the ground, and the anger in Li Qing's chest could not be dissipated for a long time.
