"Your Majesty, the minister still has something to do. ”

Wei Zheng's words interrupted Taizong Li Shimin's contemplation.

"Xuancheng, you don't have to be too rigid about the courtesy of the monarch and the minister, there is nothing wrong with saying it. Taizong Li Shimin came back to his senses and waved his hand gently.

"Your Majesty, the gift of a monarch and a minister cannot be abolished for a day. Wei Zheng said solemnly. "However, there is something strange about what the minister wants to play. ”

"Oh? Taizong said with one hand on his long hair.

"Your Majesty, today I met an old woman in front of the gate of Taiji Palace, and this old woman said that she wanted to meet Your Majesty and rescue her son. ”

"This old woman is from a poor family, but she is holding a green dragon jade pendant in her hand......" Wei Zheng observed Taizong's reaction as he recounted what had just happened.

"Qinglong Jade Pendant?" Taizong Li Shimin shook his head after a slight hesitation.

At this time, Wei Zheng took out the green dragon jade pendant and presented it to Emperor Taizong.

Seeing the very familiar green dragon jade pendant, Taizong Li Shimin immediately stood up from the dragon chair and suddenly realized: "Who is it?"

Taizong hurriedly looked through the sleeves of his underwear, it turned out that after Li Biao rescued Li Shimin in the moat that day, in order to remember the name of Engong, Li Shimin wrote the word "Mu Hu" on his close-fitting sleeves. At this time, I looked at the sleeves again, and the word "Mu Hu" was written on the white sleeves.

"Xuan Cheng, this green dragon jade pendant is indeed my belongings......" Taizong's mind flashed the thrilling scene of that day again.

"Half a year ago, I went to the East Palace banquet of the prince and was intercepted halfway, but fortunately, the generals responded in time, which saved me from the disaster. Who knew that I fell into the moat and fell into the moat, and almost drowned, but fortunately I met this Mu Hu Engong, and rescued me from the water in time......"

"Xuancheng, where is that Mu Hu now?" Taizong asked eagerly.

"Your Majesty, that old woman is Mu Hu's mother, that Mu Hu, according to the old woman, has been arrested by Lord Yin of the Ministry of War, and is preparing to behead him in two days. ”

"Well, I see. ”

"Xuancheng, you have worked hard to make a trip, you quickly go to investigate the ins and outs of this case, and then report to me. Also, you have to dissuade Yin Aiqing from killing this Mu Hu. When the time comes, I will ask General Qin Shubao to help you. Taizong Li Shimin commanded.

"Obey!" Wei Zheng retreated.

When he arrived at the Xuanwu Gate, Wei Zheng picked up Li's mother and carried the elderly Li's mother away with his sedan chair.

The Ministry of War, Shangshu Mansion

"Bring that Li Biao here, and the old man will interrogate him personally. Yin Kaishan had a gloomy face.

Several strong men with big shoulders and round waists pushed and shoved all the way, pushing Li Biao, who was tied up with five flowers, to the seat of Yin Kaishan, and forcing Li Biao to kneel.

Yin Kaishan looked down with a pair of tiger eyes, and saw that Li Biao, who was tied up with flowers, was covered in blood, and he had obviously been tortured before.

"Li Biao thief, are you guilty?!" Yin Kaishan broke off!

"Li Biao is guilty!" Li Biao held his head high and replied in a deep voice.

"Huh?" Yin Kaishan was very surprised, and said in his heart: When interrogating Liu Hong a few days ago, the thief Liu Hong denied it in every possible way.

"Then tell me, what crime did you Li Biao commit?" Yin Kaishan laughed angrily, and immediately asked rhetorically.

"I, Li Biao, am guilty of murder!" Li Biao replied very briskly.

"This ......" Seeing that Li Biao happily admitted his murder, Yin Kaishan didn't know what to ask for a while.

So, Yin Kaishan patted the table and said: "Since you have admitted to the crime of murder, you will sign and draw a charge!"

The two jailers brought the paper, and "brush, brush, brush" Li Biao quickly signed it, and pressed off his bright red handprint.

"Take it back to the prison and behead it at noon tomorrow!" Yin Kaishan pulled out an arrow and handed it to the executioner.

"Yes!" the executioner ordered to retreat.

At noon the next day, the execution of the criminal field

Li Biao knelt on the torture table on both knees, his hands were tied behind his back, and there was a big "chop" card on his back.

Inside the law field, the onlookers were black. On the stands, Yin Kaishan was dressed in official uniforms, cold and majestic, and sat upright on the Taishi chair.

As noon approached, an executioner with a big waist and a round waist pulled out the "beheading" sign from Li Biao's back and prepared for execution.

"Keep people under the knife!"

A loud voice sounded, and a fast horse came to the Dharma field.

"Lord Yin, keep people under the knife. ”

Yin Kaishan Huodi stood up from the Taishi's chair, and when he saw the person, it turned out to be Wei Zheng, the counselor. Yin Kaishan hurriedly waved to the executioner, who immediately understood and immediately suspended the execution.

"It turned out to be Lord Wei. Seeing that it was an acquaintance Wei Zheng, Yin Kaishan smiled and said.

Wei Zheng left the saddle and dismounted, and greeted Yin Kaishan and said, "Lord Yin!"

"Yin Shangshu, the emperor has an edict, please release Li Biao immediately and escort him back to prison first. ”

"Well, okay!" Hearing that it was the emperor's dictation, Yin Kaishan immediately responded.

So, several soldiers relieved Li Biao and escorted him back, and Li Biao escaped death again.

The front hall of the Yin Mansion

"Bring Li Biao up. ”

Li Biao, who was tied up again, knelt in front of Yin Kaishan and Wei Zheng at this moment, bowing his head.

"Li Biao, Lord Wei Zheng has something to ask you, you have to answer honestly!" Yin Kaishan shouted. After that, he made a gesture of "please" and motioned for Lord Wei Zheng to come and ask.

"Ahem, Li Biao, let me ask you, do you know anyone?" Wei Zheng said.

Li Biao raised his head, and the person standing side by side with Yin Kaishan in front of him saw him, with a thin appearance and a thick beard on his chin, obviously, this person was also a high-ranking official.

However, after several transformations of life and death, Li Biao, who had already looked down on life and death, was fearless at this time, and glanced at the strange-looking and old-fashioned person in front of him several times, Li Biao rolled his eyes, and asked impatiently on the spot: "Who are you, ask me what Li Biao is doing?"

"Shut up!" Yin Kaishan shouted. "You thief, do you know who he is? He is the court's counselor, Lord Wei, and a close minister of the emperor. ”

"The emperor's close ministers?" Li Biao was pondering the meaning of this sentence.

"Let me ask you, do you know a person named Mu Hu?" the prime minister can hold the boat in his belly, Wei Zheng didn't seem to mind Li Biao's rude performance just now, and asked patiently again.

Li Biao thought to himself: This is death, but if you don't say it, it is also death, and there may be a chance to turn around. I just don't know: did my wife find the emperor with that piece of jade pendant? The emperor ------ the emperor's close minister, Lord Wei------, Hey?------, thinking of this, Li Biao's eyes suddenly lit up, and a ray of dawn crossed his mind: Could it be ?......

So, Li Biao immediately shouted: "Lord Wei, the villain is Mu Hu, Mu Hu is me!"

"You are obviously Li Biao, why do you claim to be Mu Hu?" Wei Zheng remained silent and continued to ask.

"Back to my lord, after the villain escaped from the Jiangzhou Assassin Mansion, because I have been chased and killed by Liu Hong, I had to cut out half of the characters from my name "Li Biao", and changed my name to Mu Hu, in order to avoid Liu Hong and the pursuit of various officials. Li Biao told the story eloquently, without any concealment.

"Oh, I see. Wei Zheng was stunned. At that moment, he took out the green dragon jade pendant and asked, "Do you know this thing?"

Li Biao took the jade pendant, looked at it fixedly, and immediately became happy! This piece of pure white jade pendant is in the shape of a green dragon, the jade pendant is translucent, crystal clear, very pure, exquisite workmanship, warm and moist, without the slightest flaw, it is the King of Qin who gave it to him, and he carried it for more than half a year.

"Know, know!" Li Biao was overjoyed, and said in his heart that Emperor Tang still remembered my Li Biao's life-saving grace, and finally sent someone to save me.
