Chapter 9: The World Shakes!
When Ying Kongchen and Baili Tenghai returned to the City Lord's Mansion, Bai Chen had already been waiting in the palace hall for a long time.
Seeing Ying Kongchen and Baili Tenghai coming in, Bai Chen hurriedly got up and said, "Little Wangye, Zhou Mu, I am derelict in my duty today, and I hope that Xiao Wang Ye and Zhou Mu will forgive my sins!"
Ying Kongchen didn't say anything, after all, he was not an official, he only had the identity of a little prince, he didn't have an official position, and he had always been friends with Bai Chen, so it was the best choice to remain silent in this case.
Baili Tenghai waved his hand, not at all the angry look when he was in Mingxi Mountain, and he seemed a little indifferent, and said: "Although you have been derelict in this matter, there are many people today, and it is impossible to investigate them one by one."
However, your arrest of the accomplice is a great achievement, which is enough to offset your negligence. ”
"Accomplice?"
Before Bai Chen could speak, Ying Kongchen asked with a puzzled expression, he didn't say this just now in Mingxi Mountain.
Baili Tenghai said lightly: "Little Prince, after the investigation of the Black Prison, the people of the Mo family seem to have a connection with Chen Yu, and the suspicion is very great, His Majesty Gu ordered the ministers and the little prince to secretly take the people of the Mo family back to the imperial capital together, and wait for the matter to be thoroughly investigated." ”
As he spoke, he took out an inky but somewhat transparent dragon-shaped token from his waist.
Win Kongchen and Bai Chen's hearts were shocked, the emperor card is also known as the black dragon order, is the symbol of the emperor.
Even if the first emperor only gave three people at the beginning, having this card means that the right to be outside can not be feased, and those who are officials can freely enter and leave Xianyang Palace, the power is unimaginable!
Baili Tenghai just took it out and showed it to them and then took it back, just to let them know that he had an imperial decree with him.
Ying Kongchen pursed his lips and asked, "Uncle Baili, when are we leaving?"
To be honest, if it weren't for the royal brother asking him to come, he wouldn't have bothered to come here, how comfortable it is to be his own carefree little prince in Liaozhou.
So now he just wants to deal with these things quickly, and then go back to Liaozhou and be chic.
Poor Ying Kongchen didn't know what was waiting for him after returning to the imperial capital.
Baili Tenghai was stunned, Uncle Baili's eyes flashed with remembrance, and then said casually: "Your Majesty means to let the little prince decide, and the little prince can go back when he wants." ”
"Really?"
Win Kongchen was overjoyed and asked.
Baili Tenghai nodded heavily and said, "Yes, Your Majesty said so." ”
In fact, Baili Tenghai was also very puzzled, and handed over the decision to this twenty-one-year-old little prince? What if this little prince didn't want to go back and missed a big thing?
Win Kongchen is full of vigilance in his heart, what bad idea is the imperial brother fighting again? But he can't care about it so much, if he doesn't go back, there is no hope, and if he goes back, there may be some hope.
So Ying Kongchen said: "Then let's go back today, the current state affairs should be the priority." ”
Hearing this, Baili Tenghai glanced at Ying Kongchen and nodded.
Win Kongchen's talent is good, and he is not casual, he knows the weight, not bad, not bad. Compared to the royal families in the imperial capital, it is much better, no wonder His Majesty will leave the decision in his hands.
Ying Kongchen was a little hairy by Baili Tenghai's eyes, didn't this state pastor want to return to the imperial capital earlier?
If he knew what Baili Tenghai was thinking, he would probably laugh out loud, what kind of state affairs are important, if it weren't for the sake of returning to Liaozhou as soon as possible, who would want to go to the imperial capital early? Thinking about his imperial brother, he couldn't help but feel a chill.
......
In the imperial capital, the identity of the assassin has been investigated, and the black prison elder has also come forward to tell the whole story.
All this took only one morning, no, just an hour or so, from Youzhou to Shuzhou, the horror of the black prison is self-evident!
By the emperor's order, all the Wu clan were executed, without going through the criminal department, directly by the people in the black prison with the Shuzhou camp tiger talisman, mobilized Shuzhou soldiers and horses, and executed all the Wu clan in Chuancheng, the capital of Shuzhou.
Not only that, but there are also the wives and mothers of the three sons of the Wu family, thousands of people, all of whom have their heads on the ground.
For a while, Shuzhou set off a bloody storm, but all the forces that had contact with the Wu family trembled, for fear of implicating themselves.
But this matter of the black prison has obviously exceeded its authority, at the beginning of the establishment of the Black Ice Terrace, the first emperor had decreed that the Black Ice Terrace only has the responsibility of examination and inquiry, and has no right to act and punish!
The Black Prison was born out of the Black Ice Platform, and the rules naturally follow the Black Ice Platform.
Therefore, it is obviously not in accordance with the rules for the black prison to exercise its power of punishment in this matter.
But no one in the imperial capital dared to speak, so why did the Black Prison dare to act like this?
Clear-eyed people know that this is because the emperor is dissatisfied with some people, and without being punished by the Criminal Department, he puts this matter on the bright side, because Zhou Li, the secretary of the Criminal Department, is a person from Prime Minister Li Tai's family!
Now everyone is looking at the Prime Minister's Mansion to see what he will do.
Demanding punishment for the Black Prison?
Okay, the emperor can naturally do this, and a small boss can solve the matter at will. Find a reason, for example, I originally wanted them to bring troops to the Wu clan in the imperial capital to be executed by the Criminal Department, but the people who led the team were angry and convenient for Shuzhou to execute them.
Then the emperor will casually push out a person to kill, what can you say about the prime minister?
But the Wu family has been operating in Shuzhou for so many years, how did all the officials in Shuzhou become officials? Where do you supervise the hundred officials?
How about finding out if you're guilty of dereliction of duty?
So be silent?
After that, the majesty of the Criminal Department will inevitably be greatly damaged, and it is only a matter of time before the Shangshu of the Criminal Department is removed, as long as there is a suitable opportunity, the emperor will inevitably remove Zhou Li and install his own people.
And the position of the people in the Prime Minister's Mansion will inevitably waver.
Therefore, Prime Minister Li Tai at this moment is the most headache, no matter what he does, he is in a dilemma.
But at this moment, the Immortal Sect Demon Sect is not in the mood to pay attention to these intrigues in the imperial capital, and the opening of the Qingdao Sect can be said to be a very failure!
But this was an uncontrollable factor, the imperial decree was not read, and they did not know what the attitude of the Great Qin court was towards them.
They couldn't help but curse that assassin in their hearts, you can't wait for him to finish reading you before you kill?
Moreover, in order to arrest more than 1,000 people, Daqin actually dispatched tens of thousands of soldiers, which made people shudder.
It's like when the first emperor conquered the immortals and demons in the past, he dispatched 500,000 troops!
And the immortals and demons don't even have 50,000 people combined!
Ten times as much!
Emperor Daqin is simply crazy!
The heads of thousands of people fell to the ground, and the dispatch of tens of thousands of troops made everyone in the world feel cold, and Daqin was still as bloody as ever.
Especially when it comes to matters involving imperial power, Emperor Daqin is like a madman, which makes people fearful!
The power of the black prison is even more chilling, Shuzhou, Youzhou, and the imperial capital, the three of them are separated by thousands of miles, and it took less than two hours from the transmission of the news to the execution of the Wu family!
The Black Prison is really worthy of being the first intelligence department of Great Qin, the sharp blade in the hands of the emperor!
Emperor Great Qin even used the blood of thousands of people to tell the world, I, Emperor Great Qin, must not be humiliated!
is even telling some people that the imperial power of Great Qin is even more untouchable!
