Chapter 225

As soon as he entered the court, he saw emperor Xuanwu sitting on the throne. He immediately knelt down and cried with tears in his eyes, "my Lord, the guilty minister is wronged. Please make the decision for me."

Zhou Mingda took a look at Murong Ben and saw that he didn't move, so he took up the startling wood and patted it, "criminal minister Xuzhou state, don't roar at the court! If you have any grievances, the Lord will decide for you after our interrogation. "

Xuzhou national horse dried his tears, "Mr. Zhou, please."

Zhou Mingda nodded with satisfaction, "I also ask you, Queen Qianqiu banquet, you are responsible for guarding the palace, how to let the assassin into the palace? And, after the assassin enters, why don't you come to rescue him? Please tell me one by one

"The emperor's lesson is that the crime minister led the imperial army to patrol the palace of the imperial city on that day, but he never left without permission. The guards outside the palace did not find the assassin climbing over the wall, and the crime ministers patrolled the palace, and there was no assassin. The crime minister boldly guessed that the assassin entered the palace from the secret Road, knew the patrol frequency in advance, and deliberately avoided it, so that he could successfully sneak into the fireworks platform and assassinate. " In his voice, he stated the second question, "the second question, the subordinates and others heard the movement of the fireworks platform, and they just went there in a hurry. Unexpectedly, they were half paralyzed and fell down one after another. Only when they were hit by the soft tendons, they could not be rescued in time."

After that, he kowtowed a heavy blow to Emperor Xuanwu, "the guilty minister followed the emperor for more than 20 years, devoted himself to his duty, devoted himself to the main task, and never had a second intention. This time, he was framed by a traitor, which put the emperor in danger, and the guilty minister was responsible for his death. But wanwang, the Holy One, is very observant. Only when he eradicates the traitors, can he have no worries

Emperor Xuanwu's face moved. The imperial guards are close to the emperor. They are responsible for guarding the Imperial Palace and the safety of the emperor. They can't be non confidants. Xuzhou, the chief general, was his confidant and aide when he was the prince. He knows best how he was. However, he was definitely framed this time.

Then his face softened slightly, and he asked, "who knows about the patrol duty that day besides you? Besides, what did you eat?"

Such an inquiry means that he has been believed in his innocence. The state of Xuzhou was immediately overjoyed and even said, "the patrol duty is decided by the criminal officials and the left and right generals in consultation, except that they have no fourth person to know. Moreover, because it was empress Qianqiu, shangshifang once gave a banquet to the Imperial Army, and everyone ate a bowl of warm soup. "

Getting the sign from the emperor, Zhou Mingda quickly took a picture of the startling wood, "the general of the Imperial Army and the manager of shangshifang."

After a while, the left and right generals and the general manager's aunt were taken up and knelt down tremblingly. They all cried out that they had been wronged. The state of Xuzhou raised its eyebrows and first took the left and right generals to make an operation. "You two, after negotiating the shift with General Xu, come to our officials one by one where you have been and who you have met."

The patrol duty of the Imperial Palace should be changed in the morning, middle and evening. The officials on duty can't walk around at will. It's easy to know their whereabouts after making a decision, so they dare not hide and come one after another. The two men had never seen any special eunuchs in the palace, and the only one who had contact with them was the eunuchs who distributed warm soup at that time.

So Zhou Mingda quickly asked the Yamen servant to lead him. As a result, the Yamen servant reported to the court that the maid in waiting for trial was frightened and killed herself. In a rage, Zhou Mingda quickly asked someone to search the palace maid's residence and found the jade bracelet produced by the imperial palace. There are records of all the things in the Chizao office, and we soon found out the source - the bracelet, which was given to Princess Yun by the Chizao office a few months ago. Later, it was awarded to the manager of shangshifang by her, but she didn't know why it appeared in a little maid's Palace.

Zhou Mingda asked people to invite concubine Yun, and then interrogated the manager of shangshifang, "bold and Cheap slave, who is the soft tendon powder in the warm soup? How can that jade bracelet be in the hands of the little maid of honor? What's the relationship with you? Come to our official immediately."

The aunt in charge immediately shook like chaff sieve, kept kowtowing, "holy sage, adult's lesson, this has nothing to do with the slave. It's concubine Yun. She asked her maid to contact General Zuo, and she also asked her maid to prescribe medicine in the soup. But she didn't dare, so she asked the little maids at the bottom to do it

Before Zhou Mingda said anything, general Zuo immediately became angry and said, "dare you to frame me up

He wanted to rush to hit people, and was immediately stopped by the Yamen officers. With the value of his force, he could easily overturn a few small yamen servants, but he did not dare to make a big noise and increase the charges. At this time, when he was splashed with dirty water, he was no longer silent, even though he might be charged with slandering the court officials.

So he kowtowed to Emperor Xuanwu, "my Lord, I am wronged. It was the right general who revealed his shift. A few months ago, he suddenly became rich. Although he kept a low profile, he still missed his mark. The servants of his family are shopping for treasures in the market. They just need to ask the ministers under their seats to know. "

Emperor Xuanwu's face sank and asked about him. These ministers were very happy to put spies in other people's houses. Naturally, they knew something. After hearing the words, they nodded their heads to confirm that general Zuo's words were true.

In this case, sudden wealth naturally can not escape suspicion. Emperor Xuanwu was held accountable, and the right general quickly called out, "the guilty minister is just a family member doing business and making some money. It's not any illegal business. Please tell me."Emperor Xuanwu directly said, "in this case, come and thoroughly investigate the source of the right general's family property."

The right general's face was suddenly defeated. Seeing him like this, there was something they didn't understand. He was the one who revealed the collusion with the little maid of honor and the patrol duty. The so-called silver, I'm afraid, is also the advantage given by the behind the scenes.

Emperor Xuanwu sneered, "tell me who gave you the silver. If it's true, I can take it lightly."

The right general's face suddenly struggled. He looked at the aunt in charge of shangshifang and said, "it's Yunfei who goes back to the emperor."

These two people, is to insist cloud imperial concubine not to let go.

At this time, concubine Yun was invited to come up. Because of her status as a concubine, even the suspect, Zhou Mingda did not dare to put people in prison. Instead, she and concubine Li lived in the room where the officials on duty had a rest. They were specially guarded, and they did not treat him badly. Therefore, although concubine Yun looked haggard, she was not in a mess. As soon as she went to court, she saluted emperor Xuanwu, "I have seen the emperor, I don't know if I can ask my concubine to come. What can I do for you

After more than a month of fear, the case was finally tried. On the contrary, Princess Yun calmed down. Emperor Xuanwu thought deeply and asked Zhou Mingda to question the case. Not daring to sit down, Zhou Mingda stood up with the Duke of Zhenguo and told her the case just now. Then he asked, "dare to ask empress Yun, is what they said true? Did you win over the right general to get the patrol frequency of the palace and instruct the palace people to prescribe medicine in the warm soup? "

Cloud imperial concubine angrily rose red face, resolutely refute, "not!"
