Volume Two: The Storm in Kyoto Chapter 393
This is a killer move. When the emperor saw this memorandum of crime, he obviously felt that he was not very good.
After all, the records above are all the crimes committed by some people, and these people are not ordinary people.
Finally, the emperor slapped the memorandum of sin on the table.
The Tingwei Song Cang didn't know what was written on it, but just listening to Huang Zhang's words, he roughly understood a little.
If this memorandum of sin is true, then the separation between Luo Chen and Dai Zong will probably be accomplished.
But Song Cang still didn't want to admit defeat so simply. In his opinion, even if Luo Chen and Dai Zong were not as harmonious as those rumored by the outside world, it would not prove that Luo Chen did not participate in the assassination.
"Song Cang, you go down first!" the emperor suddenly said.
"this……"
Song Cang originally wanted to fight back again, but he didn't expect the emperor to let him retreat directly.
"I, take your leave!"
In the end, Song Cang retreated unwillingly. As the captain of the imperial army, Cen Shang naturally knew when he should leave. As soon as Song Cang retreated, he also retreated.
At this moment, there were only the emperor, Eunuch Hong and Huang Zhang left in the entire Fude Hall.
The emperor said, "Is this memorandum of sin serious?"
Huang Zhang shook his head, saying that nonsense is of course fake. How could he show the true memorandum of sin to the emperor? This was just written by himself!
Seeing Huang Zhang shaking his head, the emperor's eyes began to sharpen.
"You dare to deceive me?"
"I dare not!" Huang Zhang replied immediately.
"Don't dare? Humph, what do you mean?"
The emperor threw the memorandum of sin at Huang Zhang's feet. To be honest, when he first saw the memorandum of sin, he was a little worried. After all, there were many people recorded on it. If he followed it carefully, the impact would be too great.
The capital city has become very sensitive because of the assassination of the two princes. If something happened at this moment, it would be a shaking foundation of his rule. This is what the emperor does not want to see. After learning that the memorandum of guilt was fake, he breathed a sigh of relief.
But this also means that Huang Zhang was lying to him just now, which is a complete crime of deceiving the emperor!
"Father, son minister has to do it."
"I have to do it? I asked you to investigate the case, but I didn't let you do these fake things! Come on, tell me what is the last resort?"
"I found out that Luo Chen is indeed incompatible with Dai Zong, and there is no confidant that people rumored. This is a forced addition to Lord Song Cang and Song in order to close the case. In order to divide the relationship between Luo Chen and Dai Zong, I had no choice but to come up with this bad plan!"
Hearing Huang Zhang's words, the emperor began to be curious.
"I don't understand, why do you have to keep this Luo Chen wholeheartedly?"
But Huang Zhang said solemnly: "By Father, I am not in Paul Chen, but in the face of the court."
As soon as these words were said, the emperor's eyes immediately changed.
"Why do you say this?"
"Dai Zong colluded with the thief army and deserved to be killed. If it is reported that the former commander of the city defense camp was actually related to the thief army, then why is my court face? Could it be that my second brother is unknown and appoints the thief to hold such an important position? Wouldn't this be ridiculous?"
"Ha ha ha ha."
After Huang Zhang finished speaking, the emperor suddenly burst into laughter.
Huang Zhang was really puzzled by the emperor's inexplicable laughter.
"My prince actually has such profound insights. It was because my father had misunderstood before. Well, you are right. The court has a greater face. However, Luo Chen's control of the subordinates was not good, which led to the rebels taking advantage of the situation. Even if they are not guilty of death, they should not hold important positions again. They will pass the imperial edict and demote Luo Chen to a commoner."
"Here!"
Eunuch Hong, who was beside him, nodded and turned around and left.
Hearing the emperor's order, Huang Zhang leaned over and flattered, "Father is wise."
At the same time, Huang Zhang's mouth gradually rose.
In fact, from the beginning, he had no hope of cutting Luo Chen and Dai Zong cleanly, one was the commander and the other was the deputy commander. No matter what he did, it was impossible to cut it cleanly.
Since that's the case, Huang Zhang will take a different approach. Sometimes, you don't need to prove that he is innocent, you just need to let others know that he cannot be guilty.
Huang Zhang set up a plan at the beginning, asking Song Cang to admit that Dai Zong had colluded with the thief army. As long as he admitted this, Luo Chen would be rescued.
After all, Luo Chen represents the court. Collaborating with the thief army is to attack the court’s face!
Unfortunately, Song Cang did not realize this. He just wanted to bind Luo Chen and Dai Zong, but ignored the more important aspects.
Of course, do you think Dai Zong and the thief army have colluded?
Of course it is unclear. All of this is just a situation set by Huang Zhang.
Whether it was the discovery of the thief army in the villa, the letter and the headscarf, they were all set up by Huang Zhang. This bureau was not expressed by Huang Zhang, but by the imperial guard captain Cen Shang, the conviction was different.
The people who set up these games were naturally Fan Lingfeng and Ban Hong beside Huang Zhang. If they were asked to do these small moves, they would never disappoint Huang Zhang.
Since Huang Zhang was hinted at Dai Zong's body that day, his whole mind has changed.
If you are obsessed with pursuing the truth, you may disappear with the truth the day when he digs out the truth.
So Huang Zhang changed his mind. In Kyoto, the truth doesn’t matter, what matters is how big your influence can be!
It is very necessary to expand your influence and save Luo Chen and use the memorandum of crimes given to him by Luo Yingying to control those officials.
Therefore, this time the case was overturned, it seemed that the truth was found, but in fact it was just a means by Huang Zhang to save Luo Chen.
Seeing that the matter had been resolved, Huang Zhang was about to step down, but was kept by the emperor.
"Son, the assassination case of the Jingjin capital has ended, but the commander of the city defense battalion has been demoted and the deputy commander has been betrayed and disappeared. Do you think who is the right person to serve as the commander of the city defense battalion?"
When Huang Zhang heard the emperor's sudden question, he remembered what Song Cang told him before that the emperor was preparing to let him serve as the commander of the city defense camp.
But at the moment, he still has to pretend to be stupid. He can't say that he is the most suitable, that's too obvious.
"I just returned to Kyoto and I have never met any people in Beijing, so I can't answer this."
What Huang Zhang said was the truth. He was not familiar with the powerful people in the capital. Although he received many gifts, he did not know any of them.
"Um!"
The emperor nodded, not at all.
"If there is nothing else, I will surrender."
"There is another important thing." The emperor suddenly spoke.
"There's something else?"
"Your son, you are not young anymore. After this year, you will become an adult. Some time ago, the Wei Kingdom in the north sent someone to marry, and I agreed that the target was Princess of Wei Kingdom. I asked her to marry you. A princess of a dignified country is a match for you. I will notify you first so that you can be prepared. I think the wedding team will arrive in Kyoto soon."
"What!"
