Chapter 388 What can you do with me?
Hou Xuanyan came to the living room, and Chen Mingyu was admiring the calligraphy and paintings on the hall. Most of the calligraphy and paintings on the wall were given by civil and military officials in the court, and they were written by them themselves, without any ancient sites.
"Old Ge Lao Chen, haha, come to find me early in the morning, what's wrong?"
Chen Ming met Hou Xuanyan's face and looked pretty good, and said, "To be honest, Lu Zhenfei and Liu Zhongzao were killed in prison. Recently, Zhao Yuanhua, the Ministry of Justice, has handled this case. It is naturally no problem to arrest the murderer, but it is involved too extensively. If this continues, everyone in the court will be in danger, and they may be unfavorable to the country."
When Hou Xuanyan heard this, he knew that this honest man had been used by others and came to be a lobbyist in a mess. If Hou Xuanyan hadn't known his temperament for a long time, he would have driven him out long ago.
Hou Xuanyan laughed and said, "Ge Master, do you think the killing was too ruthless? I also think the killing was too light. I will show you something and you will understand.
Come, go to my study... Forget it, I'll go by myself."
Hou Xuanyan stood up and returned to the study. Chen Mingyu looked at his hurried back and thought to himself: The Duke walked so fast, I am afraid he was angry. It seems that I shouldn't have come this time.
The door of the study was pushed open with a creaking sound. Bian Yujing and Chen Yuanyuan were startled. Hou Xuanyan came over and untied them, put a big cloak on Bian Yujing, slapped them on their butts, and said, "Next time, I will see how I will punish you, go." It turned out that this time was because after Chen Yuanyuan entered the mansion, they met Bian Yujing. The two of them sarcastically mocked each other. After Hou Xuanyan heard it, they punished them.
The two of them bowed their heads together, and a trace of color flashed in Bian Yujing's eyes, making Chen Yuanyuan feel so angry that she itchy.
After the two of them put on their skirts together, they shook their graceful figure and went back to the inner courtyard.
After watching the two of them leave, Hou Xuanyan picked up the file and came to the living room, saying, "Gei, please take a look at this first."
Chen Ming was confused, so he took it and looked it through pages after taking it. After a while, he slapped the table in anger: "It should be killed! It should be killed! I didn't expect that our court would become a place where dirt is hidden."
After Chen Ming met, Hou Xuanyan sneered, and this was just the beginning.
"Let Zhao Yuanhua come to see me."
The personal soldiers outside the door responded and turned to the Ministry of Justice to find someone. After a while, Zhao Yuanhua arrived.
"Prince."
"Yeah, sit."
"If you have any questions, please give me instructions. If you are not tired, just stand."
Zhao Yuanhua has been extremely happy these days, and the forbearance in the past finally broke out. This group of people caused him enough trouble, but because of Renshu played by Hou Xuan, he has been leaping around until today.
Hou Xuanyan pinched his eyebrows and asked, "Is anyone causing trouble for you these days?"
"All the people with swords in Jinling City are our own people, and all the yamen are in our hands. Don't worry, no one dares to go against us."
"Well, that's good. This time I have made up my mind to kill you casually. I am called sick and closed to the door to thank guests for seven days. After seven days, I will go up to the morning court and cannot see any annoying figure."
Zhao Yuanhua was overjoyed, laughed and said, "Don't worry, my subordinates will not let down the prince's entrustedness."
After leaving the gate of the Marquis' Mansion, Chen Changzhi, who brought Qianxiang Camp into the city this time, came forward and asked, "Boss, how about it, the prince won't change his mind again, right?"
Zhao Yuanhua held his hands behind his back and took a grin and said with a grim smile: "The prince stayed in the door for seven days and did not see guests. In seven days, he would see a 'Jiuzhengxiang'."
Chen Changzhi was secretly shocked. At the current speed, seven days are not a short time. It seems that the prince was so angry that he didn't want to see these people anymore.
The Ministry of Justice immediately made a sentence. The murder of Lu Zhenfei and Liu Zhongzao was a major conspiracy against the court. The main culprit was Zhao Shichao, the Zhan Shifu, and countless accomplices.
At the foot of Qinglong Mountain, a building with a courtyard wall that is more than three times higher than an ordinary courtyard wall is located in the office of Qianxiang Camp.
In a dark room, half of the window was pouring in a pitiful little sunlight. The head of the Mao family, the famous clan of the Jiangnan family, was hung in the air. A spy stepped forward and asked, "Mao Qi Zong, let me ask you, do you know why you arrested you?"
Mao Qizong's son is Mao Xiang. He just thought that his son offended Hou Xuanyan, and admitted: "I know, my son offended the Regent, but he has been punished. The prince took off all his clothes and tied him to the downtown market for a day..."
The spy sneered and scolded: "Who told you to say this? Someone revealed that you were deliberately treason and plotted to participate in the poisoning and killing Lu Zhenfei. Can you admit your guilt?"
"Where does this start? I have been intimate with Mr. Lu for a long time, and I regard each other as a friend of age. How could I do this?" When Mao Qizong heard this, he was shocked. His son's affairs were small. I don't know how many people involved in Lu Zhenfei's case. The case of regicide was just like this. This kind of thing was very deep. If you are not careful, your family would be destroyed.
The spy from Qianxiang Camp secretly said that this time he was Lu Zhenfei and Liu Zhongzao's accomplice, but said, "You dare to argue. Xie Shouyuan, the young minister of Taichang Temple, has confessed you. Let me tell you the truth. If you admit your guilt or not, you will never escape death. If you press this handprint, you can still save your family and suffer less from your skin and flesh. Why not do it?"
When Mao Qizong saw that the confession letter was written with the name of his friend Hou Xun. It seemed that they were planning to involve Hou Xun. Qian Qizong sneered: "What's the point of infringing on him? What are you doing? Just use it. If you want me to frame my friend, you must not."
The spy then showed his face from the darkness. The spy raised his head and found out in surprise that the spy who had been talking for a long time turned out to be a boy.
"Maoqi Sect, my method is very direct, but you may not be able to stand it."
The spy had goose bumps all over his body. He didn't know what torture he was going to face. While he was waiting for the whip on the tiger bench with his eyes closed, the spy came over with a smile, his palm flashed out quickly, and the spy's arm clicked and he was dislocated.
The spy went over to take his soft arms, lit the cinnabar at his fingertips, and covered the letter of confession. Then he raised the confession, and, under the stunned gaze of the Emperor, he said to his subordinates, "Okay, the Emperor, the Emperor, has already confessed his guilt, dragged it to the backyard and chopped it up, and then went to the Hou Mansion to catch people and capture Hou Xun."
"Shameless! You are shameless!" The Kuangzong's eyes were bloodshot and he shouted wildly, unable to feel the pain in his arms.
"Yes, how can you do to me?" The spy laughed a few times, then said, "Besides, what qualifications do you have to call me? Last year, two officials and three gentry were having a banquet at Hou's family courtyard. Have you forgotten what you said to Hou Xu?"
When Qiangqizong heard this, the curse came to an abrupt end, his eyes were shocked and frightened, and his heart was ashamed. At that time, they scolded Hou Xuanyan, and the most terrible thing was that they talked about Hou Xuanyan raising the empress.
With this alone, Maoqizong knew that no one would be spared that day.
