Three hundred and fiftieth chapters: the emperor personally interrogated
This sudden scene went away as quickly as it came, but in just a moment, all the idle people on the street were driven away. Qianhu Maqiao, the avant-garde of the government army, and a Li Xingbai who stayed in the outer city of Xichang followed closely.
Warning lines were set up in all directions on the street. Sergeants were like nails every ten steps. They stood all over the street outside Xuanwumen, almost blocking this main road into the city.
Completely blocked.
In a temporarily requisitioned street restaurant, Zhu Houzhao was glaring at Li Yifeng fiercely, suddenly slammed his fist on the table and said, "What on earth is going on?"
Although the little emperor was obviously angry, Li Yifeng didn't panic at all. After kowtowing, he explained exactly how he had cast a net everywhere to find Jiang Shanfei and how he had raided Zhang Cai.
Come together. The only difference is from what Xu Xun said to Zhang Cai. He repeatedly emphasized that Jin Yiwei had already detected Jiang Shanfei's whereabouts and "accidentally" rescued Zhang Cai, and then persuaded him not to make any announcements on the grounds of the overall situation.
, waiting for the next step of detection. Having said this, he paused and glanced at Xu Xun standing next to Zhu Houzhao from the corner of his eye. When he saw Xu Xun nodding slightly to him, he took a deep breath.
"Today, I originally escorted this person to Yongfu Temple outside the city for inspection, but I didn't expect this man to be extremely cunning and took the opportunity to escape. I led people to chase him all the way here, where I met this group of people who claimed to be from the Punishment Department. Your Majesty Mingjian
, these people were said to be agents from the Ministry of Punishment, and were ordered to arrest the key criminals in the sea arrest documents, but the emperor should have seen the fight just now, and they clearly wanted to take the life of Jiang Shanfei! This Jiang Shanfei, during the Chenghua period, was
Xichang Xiaoqi, and later Xichang was disbanded. He fell into the trap and became a gangster, and was later recruited by Min Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment. He was once arranged to be a head catcher in the Ministry of Punishment. It is said that he was responsible for many major cases in the Ministry of Punishment. That's it.
I personally, after the former West Factory reopened, used my experience of the old West Factory to sneak in. I really have ulterior motives!"
Li Yifeng's words were extremely skillful. When he heard this, Zhu Houzhao's fists suddenly clenched tighter. He was a hasty emperor, and his father only asked him to respect a few gentlemen and not to neglect the hard work of state affairs. However, the fact is that
After excluding the West Factory, he appointed Gu Dayong. Jinyiwei is now considered capable. Not to mention the other yamen up and down, it is extremely difficult for him to do something to change things. He has only a few capable people.
, there are just a few yamen that can be manipulated, and others still have to put nails into them!
"Bastard...bastard...bastard bastard!"
Zhu Houzhao was so angry that he cursed several times. Fortunately, except for him, Li Yifeng and Xu Xun, everyone else was standing outside. Unexpectedly, his unscrupulous words were heard by outsiders. When he picked up the tea cup next to him,
While he was smashing to vent his anger, a hand pressed heavily on his hands. Furious, he looked up angrily, only to find that Xu Xun was staring at him.
"Your Majesty, the more times like this, the more restraint you have to do. You will have to meet other people later to let them see your mood. Some people may not dare to speak, while others may not.
Wouldn't it be bad to take the opportunity to stir up your mood?" At this point, Xu Xun bent slightly again, but lowered his voice and said, "Even if you can't bear this tone, let me put it another way. Today
Did you say that if you want to be my cousin for a day, why don't you give me some face?"
Although Zhu Houzhao didn't want to restrain himself, when he heard Xu Xun repeating his previous joke, he could only reply with a dismayed snort. Then he withdrew his hand, looked at Li Yifeng and said: "Go outside, put that
Jiang Shanfei brought him, and that Xu Jing. Also, didn't you say that Zhang Cai was almost killed by this guy? You should send someone to bring Zhang Cai to me here. I want to ask him personally!"
In the shop that was originally filled with tables, chairs and benches, all those tables, chairs and benches were moved to the side, leaving a quite spacious space in the middle. But when the door is closed in broad daylight, the room is quite dark, even for Li Yifeng.
I found an oil lamp and lit it, but it still didn't help drive away the darkness. On the contrary, it gave the place a gloomy atmosphere. Even Xu Jing, who had no worries in his heart, felt like it when he stepped into this place.
I couldn't help but shudder, and my heart felt a little pounding for a while.
It’s really the emperor! But Xu Xun knew it was the emperor, why didn’t he remind him, and actually talked to the emperor in such an rude manner, and even said he was a cousin!…
He wanted to think so, but he didn't dare to show it on his face. He went up to him and bowed to him. After he kowtowed once, he heard an impatient voice coming from above: "Stop kowtowing, it's giving me a headache."
.Xu Jing, get up and speak!"
Xu Jing was stunned when he heard this. He suddenly looked up bravely and saw Xu Xun smiling and nodding. There was no emotion or anger on the little emperor's face. He had no choice but to stand up with his hands on his knees and stand there with his hands down. The next moment, he
He heard the superior ask him: "Xu Jing, is this guy the one who threatened you at Yongfu Temple before?"
He glanced sideways at the man on the ground with his arms hanging limply but still being held down by Li Yifeng's hand. Xu Jing's eyes lingered on his hunchback for a while, and finally he turned back and bowed deeply: "Your Majesty, my dear fellow.
I dare not say for sure. At that time, he was dressed in black and masked. Xiaomin could only see his hunchback and one shoulder was high and the other was low. The rest could not be clearly seen. However, after Xiaomin's horse was frightened just now, he and he
A person who claims to be an agent of the Ministry of Punishment is indeed determined to take the life of the minister!"
"Your Majesty, Mr. Xu's horse was not frightened, but was stabbed on its left front leg. The horse's leg was injured and it couldn't hold on, so it naturally fell forward. If I hadn't seen the opportunity quickly,
Perhaps Mr. Xu's life will not be saved. The intention of murdering people is clear, and compared with the previous threats, coupled with the characteristics of the hunchback and high shoulders, there is no doubt that he will be successful."
Zhu Houzhao himself was at the scene at the time. Although he had not looked so carefully, at this time Xu Jing and Li Yifeng explained one after another, he had a preconceived impression. He was already gritting his teeth. He immediately glared at Jiang Shanfei who was kneeling on the ground and shouted: "When
In my presence, the country is flying, what else do you have to say?"
He only stayed in Beizhen Fusi for a few days. Although Li Yifeng did not use many severe punishments, he was always indispensable with boards and whips, and he also used various methods to prevent him from sleeping, which almost brought him to the edge of collapse. So as soon as today arrived
Outside the city, even though he knew there was only one tenth of a ten thousandth hope, Jiang Shanfei still fought hard and escaped. But what he never expected was that he not only bumped into the troublesome scholar who had put him in this situation.
, and he almost lost his life at the hands of those agents from the Criminal Department! He has been a head hunter for many years, and everyone in the Criminal Department is very experienced. How could he not recognize that these guys are all real experts from the Criminal Department? This is exactly what he
The most chilling!
So, when he heard the little emperor's question, he, who was already exhausted mentally and physically, replied in a hoarse voice almost without thinking: "Report to the emperor, the common people have nothing to say."
Seeing Zhu Houzhao's face full of anger again, Xu Xun stretched out his hand and pressed on the armrest, and then asked aggressively: "You left your good job in the West Factory and went to Yongfu Temple to threaten Xu Jing, and then suddenly
He disappeared from the West Factory, and then he tried to assassinate Zhang Cai, a doctor in the Literary and Selection Department of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. Today, on the way to escape, he attracted agents from the Ministry of Punishment. You actually say you have nothing to say?"
"Master Xu, why do you ask questions when you know it?" Without sleep for many days, coupled with the running and fighting just now, Jiang Shanfei no longer had the energy to think too much about what was behind him, so he simply said, "
When Xiao Min came out of the West Factory, he fell into despair. Originally, he just wanted to live one day longer and find a way out of a dead end. As a result, Minister Min was ordered to arrest thieves, but he spared no effort and gave me a way out. Although it was because I was against
He concealed the incident in Xichang, but after all, it was thanks to kindness, so of course I obeyed his advice and helped Min Shangshu solve many major cases with my own skills. Later, when the emperor wanted to reopen Xichang in the East Palace,
Minister Min once sighed to me, and I lost my mind for a moment, so I promised to try to sneak in, and it turned out that I succeeded!"
At this point, he paused for a moment, and then smiled bitterly: "I didn't expect to meet Zhongshou'er back then, who trusted me from top to bottom. I thought that this West Factory would not be able to open for a few days like it was during the Chenghua period.
So I was in a dilemma. I would be sorry to Eunuch Gu and Zhong Tou'er by sending the message to Minister Min, and I would be sorry to Minister Min for not sending the message. However, after thinking about it, I leaked a lot of news to Minister Min. Later, there were
Someone from the Ministry of Punishment brought me a message, saying that one of the candidates involved in the imperial examination scandal had come to Beijing to overturn the case, which was very detrimental to Minister Min. So I volunteered to take over the matter, thinking that such a scholar would not be intimidated.
That's it for intimidation, who knows what's going to happen next... I don't need to say anything about what's going to happen next, the emperor should already know it!"
Seeing Zhu Houzhao's face full of sullenness, Xu Xun asked coldly: "What about Zhang Cai? After the previous incident, you should have become a lost dog. You should not have the guts to touch a fifth-grade official.
!”
After all, something had been revealed. The frustrated Jiang Shanfei just wanted to be happy and simply said: "Although I don't dare to live at home, the family also hired an old servant who is deaf and mute.
After receiving the letter, I accidentally went back that day and found that someone had left a note again, saying that what I had done before was too bad, and asked me to teach Zhang Cai a lesson, and then they would arrange for me to leave the capital. Because the Ministry of Punishment had previously issued the sea arrest documents,
But the arresters in the Ministry of Punishment were basically just laborers. I thought that Minister Min was deliberately manipulating me, so I gritted my teeth and agreed. Who knew..."
At this point, he suddenly laughed miserably, suddenly raised his head and said: "I have said everything that needs to be said. I am a rough man who cannot read a lot of Chinese characters. I entered the West Factory two times and followed a minister. This time
This life is enough! Whether it is to threaten Xu Jing or to teach Zhang Cai a lesson, it is indeed my fault. Whether you want to kill or behead him is entirely up to the emperor, I admit it!" (To be continued. If you like this movie, I will do it!
