The prince's face became darker and darker, his two palms were squeezed together tightly, and his bones were turning white.
Free prisoners, disrupt the streets, and write on city walls.
This is a demonstration.
It was the rebels who were showing off their power to the court.
Moreover, Mu Zhihe's problem is indeed more serious than imagined.
Mu Shidi worked as an imperial envoy in Danhuxing Province and worked hard to distribute food to the victims. This person had such a high reputation that his father killed the imperial envoy, which was a risky move in itself.
Now there's trouble.
Mu Zhihe defecting to the rebels was the last thing the court wanted to see.
He is the son of an imperial envoy. If he raises his voice in Shanhu Province, I don't know how many refugees will join the rebels.
Shanhu Province is rich and martial. The refugees here are completely different from those in other provinces, and they are a terrifying source of soldiers.
Damn it.
This bunch of trash from the Criminal Department.
It's all trash.
Father asked you to arrest Mu Zhihe, but you racked your brains to frame the good guy.
If these moths are allowed to corrode, what will the imperial court be like?
"Hahahaha...hahahaha..."
The whole place was silent. No one dared to speak when the prince was unhappy, and even his breathing was cautious.
Suddenly, a harsh mocking sound sounded.
He is Prince Gao of Donglan Kingdom.
Just now, my subordinates have fully informed Mu Zhihe's situation, and the ins and outs can be said to be crystal clear.
The more Prince Gao listened, the happier he became, and in the end he was laughed out loud.
This Zhongzhou Dynasty is really interesting...
In order to give an explanation to the nobles and nobles, the imperial court executed an imperial envoy on unfounded charges.
But after killing me, my son escaped.
The imperial envoy has a very high reputation in Zhongzhou, a place where the folk customs are the most martial. If you are not careful, many people will join the rebel army.
When such an important person escaped, the Zhongzhou Criminal Department, instead of doing its best to hunt him down, used this criminal to frame another hero.
sharp!
When it comes to fighting among people, Zhongzhou’s court will always be beyond comparison.
Whoosh!
The prince suddenly turned his head and stared at Prince Gao coldly.
"Hahaha...hahaha..."
Prince Gao was not used to the Crown Prince's faults. Instead, the more he laughed, the more arrogant and disdainful he became.
Not only did he smile and mock, Prince Gao also mocked with words:
"Prince, no wonder the imperial court in Zhongzhou is in jeopardy. With this kind of festering situation, it is no joke that the country will be destroyed within three years... In my opinion, without the support of our Donglan Kingdom, your imperial court will only have a lifespan of two and a half years at most."
Prince Gao is full of yin and yang, not only ridicule, but also hurts the prince's heart.
…
"Hmph...Wu Zhiqian, you still don't know the crime?"
"The Criminal Department was trying its best to track down the fugitive Mu Zhihe, and we had clues several times... But you were greedy for profit, and secretly transferred all the personnel of the Criminal Department for your own selfish gain."
"If there were enough manpower, the Criminal Department would have caught Mu Zhihe three days ago... But because you transferred all the people to make false claims, we missed opportunities again and again."
"You have committed a heinous crime...you are the culprit behind the prisoner's escape."
Seeing that the prince's face was getting greener and greener, Wu Shuangqi Yaoyao pointed at Wu Zhiqian's nose and cursed loudly.
He knew in his heart that it was impossible for the Criminal Department to catch Mu Zhihe.
But the prince has no steps to go down, so someone has to lay one.
The prince of Donglan Kingdom is present, and the crown prince represents the national face of the Zhongzhou court. The most urgent thing now is to find a stepping stone to take the blame.
What an opportunity.
What a great opportunity.
Wu Shuangqi looked angry, but his heart was filled with joy.
The prince needs a punching bag the most, and you, Wu Zhiqian, are unlucky enough to jump out at this time.
Wu Shuangqi's shout also called back the soul of the Minister of Punishment.
He was also an old fox and immediately understood the most urgent needs of the prince.
Taking the blame.
The person who took the blame must quickly come forward.
"Wu Zhiqian, kneel down... Your Wu family has been a loyal minister for generations, but you have become a traitor... Bastard, are you worthy of the ancestors of the Wu family?"
Lu Zhongqing was stunned, his face turned red and his neck was thick with anger, his voice vibrated when he spoke, and the tables and chairs were shaking.
…
Wu Zhiqian was stunned for a moment.
Suddenly, he knelt at the feet of the prince with a painful expression.
"Please forgive me, Your Highness the Crown Prince, please forgive me, Lord Shangshu..."
"Wu Heqian, Wu Beiqian, you two bastards, stand up for me... I trust you so much in vain. You are so greedy for profit that you dare to give false testimony in front of His Majesty the Crown Prince... Who instigated you to make false statements?"
Wu Zhiqian cursed loudly and mercilessly asked his two younger brothers to take the blame.
If you are smart, your two brothers will bear all the charges, and you will still have a chance to stand up.
After all, the crime of negligence on his part would not lead to death, and he would most likely be demoted... When the limelight passes, he could still use the old relationship between his father and grandfather to try to make a comeback.
Damn Oh Ha Kyum, a piece of shit who doesn't accomplish enough.
While Wu Zhiqian was talking, he wished he could turn back time. If he could go back to his childhood, he would strangle this mentally retarded person early.
…
Wu Beiqian and Wu Heqian looked at each other.
Wu Beiqian's eyes were filled with resentment and hatred.
Damn it.
Why should I bear this unreasonable disaster?
I just came back a little early and was charged with death.
Not willing to give in.
But Wu Beiqian is a smart man.
What can I do if I am not willing to do so?
Perjury is your own behavior, and a little investigation will reveal the truth. You can really confess to your elder brother.
But what's the use?
The eldest brother is alive, his family members still have food to eat, and they may still have a livelihood in the future.
Once the eldest brother is beheaded, the entire Wu family will be gone.
The Wu family has offended so many people in the past, so it is not surprising that they were exterminated.
But I don’t want to die... I really don’t want to die...
Wu Beiqian glanced at his sons in the crowd. He never dreamed that today would be the last time he would see his family.
Wu Heqian knelt on the ground and shivered, he was scared to death.
Blame yourself.
It's all your own fault.
I am really blinded by lard, why should I deal with the Northern Eagle Flying General?
I'm stupid.
I'm so stupid.
Not only did I kill myself, I also harmed the entire Wu family.
Northern Eagle Flying General.
Hehehe... Beiying Mansion.
Why didn't I insist on preventing my two daughters from getting married? Why didn't I break their relationship?
Beiying Mansion...
I curse you for ten lifetimes.
…
Although Wu Zhiqian and Wu Beiqian are afraid, the Wu family has been passed down for so many years and their cohesion is amazing.
The two people already knew that they would die, but they still stood up and took all the blame on themselves.
Although Wu Shuangqi investigated and found a lot of evidence, if someone took all the blame, he would have nothing to say.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me."
Wu Beiqian was trembling all over.
Although he was ready to die, how could he not be afraid when he actually faced death.
"You two should commit suicide to apologize!"
Wu Zhiqian gritted his teeth and felt stiff all over.
Wu Heqian, Wu Heqian, you beast... you used the fugitive to accuse Northern Eagle Flying General unjustly, but you didn't even investigate to find out whether the fugitive was still in the imperial capital.
This beast deserves to die.
With such pig brains, if the Wu family is not destroyed this time, it will be destroyed next time.
What a pity Wu Beiqian.
This is a more reliable member of the Wu family.
boom!
boom!
Wu Shuangqi realized something and was about to stop him.
Unfortunately, Wu Beiqian and Wu Beiqian, one behind the other, decisively slapped their Tianling Gai with their palms.
suicide!
No hesitation!
…
"father!"
Downstairs.
The eldest and second child were already stunned.
The eldest daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law were not far away. They saw their father Oh Ha-gyeom commit suicide and collapsed immediately.
The two women tried to rush into the hall, but were beaten away by soldiers with sticks.
Wu Beiqian's family members all knelt down and kowtowed mechanically.
Wu Beiqian's son turned to stare at Wu Heqian's family.
It was you who killed my father.
Because of my good-for-nothing uncle, my father was implicated and killed.
I will make you pay with blood.
…
"Someone... take Wu Yuanqian, Wu Wenqian, Wu Siqian, Wu Weiqian... all to the dungeon."
"Wu Zhiqian neglected his duties and was dismissed from his position as Minister of Justice. He returned to the palace to await review."
The Minister of Punishment was shocked.
All charges have been admitted, and the criminal died in court.
Everything comes to light.
General Bei Yingfei was wrongly accused and can be released in court.
The chief culprit who slandered Northern Eagle Flying Officer has committed suicide out of fear of crime.
It's knotted.
Theoretically, Wu Zhiqian's brothers were not involved and did not need to go to the dungeon together.
But His Highness the Crown Prince cannot vent his anger easily, so we should arrest them all.
As for Wu Zhiqian, after all, he was a minister consecrated by the Holy Emperor. As a minister, he was not qualified to directly convict him and send him to the dungeon.
There must be an impeachment process.
After being deprived of his official position, what to do next can only be left to His Highness the Crown Prince.
…
"This is too minor. Wu Zhiqian is obviously the main culprit, why should he be spared?"
Zhang Puqing said coldly.
"It's just that it's too easy for two miscellaneous fish to take the blame."
The charlatanism in Shi Yingnan's body has not disappeared yet. He doesn't care about the prince or emperor, he just wants to shout.
The little princess wanted to shout again, but was stopped by her nanny.
Relatives of the emperor and the country are not allowed to participate in these matters.
Prince Luan and Jiang Youliang also had dark faces. In fact, anyone with a discerning eye could see that they had taken the blame for Wu Zhiqian, but since the prince was present, they did not dare to speak nonsense.
"Humph, the Ministry of Punishment is protecting criminals, just wait until I write to the Emperor..."
The Tianwang Department and the Front Office Department could not control these matters, and the Ministry of War could only scold them angrily, but the officials at Yushitai were not afraid.
Their duty is to impeach.
…
"I see..."
The prince suddenly stood up and said two words leisurely.
For a moment, the whole place was silent.
"It is you, the Minister of Punishment, who should go home and reflect."
"Wu Zhiqian, the Minister of Punishment, knew the law and broke the law. The crime will be increased by one level. He can go directly to the dungeon to wait for his punishment. Interfering with the Punishment Department's investigation and allowing the rebellious officials and traitors to leave the imperial capital is a heinous crime."
"Lu Chongqing, the Minister of Punishment, neglected his duties, resigned from office and went home, think carefully about your own sins..."
"The position of Minister of the Ministry of Punishment will be temporarily replaced by the Vice Minister Wu Shuangqi, who will be fully responsible for the affairs of the Ministry of Punishment..."
The prince announced.
Regarding the handling of the matter by the Minister of Punishment, he, as the crown prince, has the highest authority.
After all, he is just the crown prince. For a high official at the level of minister, he can only be allowed to go home and reflect. How to deal with it in the end depends on the father's eloquent words.
"Thank you, Your Highness the Crown Prince!"
Lu Chongqing and Wu Shuangqi knelt down at the same time to express their gratitude.
But there were two completely different expressions in the eyes of the two people.
Lu Chongqing had a dark face.
It’s over!
My own layout is still small.
His Royal Highness really needs someone to take the blame.
But Wu Zhiqian's status couldn't bear the blame... It turned out that he was the one who was sacrificed in the end.
Of course, my crime will not lead to death, but whether I can sit at this minister's table again in the future is a mystery.
Wu Shuangqi's eyes were burning.
The happy event came so quickly that he felt a little uncomfortable.
The most greedy person in the world for the position of Minister of Punishment is the Minister of Punishment.
Because he had seen with his own eyes the authority of the Minister of Justice.
…
Cough...cough...
As the prince spoke, he suddenly coughed.
"Your Highness!"
Suddenly, the crowd became nervous, and the guards gathered around the prince.
Jiang Wuran also stood up and hurriedly walked over.
Others wanted to get close, but were driven away by the guards. No one could get close except Prince Luan.
"It's okay to be alone..."
The prince quietly took off the silk scarf from his mouth.
The blood stains on the scarf were not visible to anyone.
Prince Luan nodded and stepped away.
"I heard that His Highness the Crown Prince was infected with a strange disease. It's not cold today, so the Crown Prince won't be coughing up blood..."
"Although this is not something that I should be concerned about, Your Highness the Crown Prince should still take care of your health. If you, the Crown Prince, pass away, the Zhongzhou Dynasty will really be in chaos."
"Our two countries are still in an alliance. I don't want the royal family to have civil strife."
Prince Gao is full of yin and yang.
Whoosh!
Prince Luan suddenly turned his head, his gaze like a sharp blade, directly touching Prince Gao's throat.
"cough……"
Prince Gao felt suffocated and coughed dryly.
"Hehehe... Prince Luan, you are extremely talented, why don't you wait until the prince dies to fight for the throne?"
Prince Gao said something strange again.
"Shut up!"
Prince Luan’s eyes became even colder.
"Go back to the palace!"
The prince waved his hand, indicating to Prince Luan that there was no need to say anything more.
Before leaving, the prince glanced at Qin Jinyang.
Qin Jinyang bent down and saluted.
By being able to come here, the prince has given himself a huge favor.
Speaking of which, Quan Desheng wants to refine the elixir and donate it to the prince. Is it really related to the prince's injury?
When he first came to the imperial capital, Qin Jinyang heard that the prince was injured.
But this is a folk taboo, no one dares to chat openly, but when it came out of Prince Gao's mouth today, it made people think.
Good things don't go out, but bad things spread thousands of miles.
Even if it is a matter involving the royal family, it cannot be contained with paper.
Having said that, this Prince Gao is really annoying.
…
The prince leaves.
Lu Chongqing left the table.
Wu Shuangqi stepped forward, hugged Lu Chongqing's fists, and sat in the center of the lobby of the Criminal Department.
Some are happy and some are sad.
Wu Shuangqi does things vigorously and resolutely.
Anyone in the Wu family who held an official position in the Ministry of Justice was arrested and taken to the dungeon of the Ministry of Justice.
Wu Zhiqian was stripped of his official uniform on the spot.
Quan Changde and Chen Jinyi were arrested on the spot. They never dreamed that when they arrived, they were fine, but when they returned, they would be reduced from being leaders who were guarding criminals to being prisoners under guard.
I'm here to get promoted and make a fortune.
When the two of them looked at Qin Jinyang, they almost felt like they were dreaming.
Chen Jinyi regretted even more... He hated himself for not listening to Bai Hengxin's words and not taking care of Qin Jinyang. If he had taken care of Qin Jinyang, then he would be his benefactor... Unfortunately, there is no if...
All the Wu family's residences were sealed, and all the Wu family's family papers, servants, and maids were all placed under house arrest.
Wu Shuangqi wants to investigate the entire Wu family.
The eldest brother and the second child were also hung up in heavy chains, and they were frightened out of their wits.
The eldest daughter-in-law and the second daughter-in-law knelt in front of Cui Sishan and cried loudly:
"Father, go and persuade the young master. As long as the young master opens the mouth of gold, he will definitely spare us... Please..."
The eldest daughter-in-law kept begging for mercy and her voice became hoarse.
In her mind, like Ming Jing, as long as Qin Jinyang opens his mouth, this catastrophe will be over.
Cui Sixhan was worried that his two sons would definitely speak.
Snap!
The fourth child came over and slapped the eldest daughter-in-law on the face.
Katcha!
As soon as he turned around, he stepped on the second wife's face with his left foot.
"Two bitches... If you hadn't been bitches, how could the young master have been captured and still have the nerve to plead for mercy?"
"When your father captured the young master, why didn't you come out and plead for mercy?"
Cui Sishan sighed.
say what?
Why do you have the face to beg for mercy?
…
Qin Jinyang was released in court.
Wu Shuangqi came over personally and untied Qin Jinyang.
"Master Xiao Qin, I have suffered..."
The more Wu Shuangqi looked at Qin Jinyang, the more he liked him. He was his noble man.
"Master Xiao Qin, do you have any appeal? The Ministry of Punishment has slandered you, please try your best to compensate..."
Wu Shuang enlightened.
"By the way, there are two people, can you take care of me?"
Qin Jinyang thought for a moment.
Bai Hengxin and Liang Yuansu worked hard to take care of themselves, and they should not be hiding in a dark dungeon.
"good……"
Wu Shuangqi was a good person, and he immediately understood what Qin Jinyang meant.
