Zhang Zhou felt that it was wise to leave Kyoto at the beginning. Now the court is really "pressing the gourd to scoop up", which is a headache. However, from some things, you can also smell a general impression. Zhuge Wenshan has started to participate in more and more things and has a greater voice. However, Zhao Qianyuan seems to lack more and more strength. Many things are pushing the boat with the flow swim!

However, due to the lack of information in his hands, it is also difficult for him to understand too many specific and clear inside information.

……

Zhang Zhou was at the Kyoto wharf. He didn't stay for two days. Someone came to the door!

According to 11 Lang's return, there were hundreds of officials from the interior government. They were aggressive and accurate. They directly rushed to the territory of Kyushu business and named Zhang Zhou himself!

Zhang Zhou was not surprised when he arrived. The emperor's will was to wait for orders at the dock.

He dare not neglect, let the four mothers avoid, they led eleven Lang and a group of escorts, went out to greet the people, what Wutong said to follow, Zhang boat felt that she could see the world.

Zhang Zhou was surprised that the leader from the house of internal affairs was Hong Xi, the chief manager. Moreover, from the expression of the other party and the attitude of the officials behind him, he was not friendly. The situation seemed a little wrong.

"Manager Hong's visit is too far to welcome? If you have anything to do, just let me know. Why bother to go there in person?" Zhang Zhou went to the guest's airway.

"Hard work should be done. After all, it's not a trivial matter for the Marquis! I don't know how long the Marquis can stay on the dock. When I heard the news, I hurried here. I'm afraid I'll miss the opportunity and waste a lot of energy!" Hong Xi's smile was strange.

Zhang Zhou felt a little strange. Didn't your majesty let him wait at the dock? But Hong Xi was obviously worried that he ran away! He suddenly realized something! Your majesty usually conveys his will through the house of interior, but Lu Xiaoyi informs him to come. Who does your majesty want to avoid?

Zhang Zhou looked at Hong Xi with some doubts, but he immediately returned to normal.

"What's so serious?"

"Ha ha! Zhang Zhou took the order!" Hong Xi was obviously not in the mood to be polite. He smiled and said aloud!

Zhang Zhou hurriedly knelt down to receive the message and listened to Hong Xi's recitation:

"Kyushu Hou Zhang Zhou, suspected of acting recklessly, ordered to arrest him and put him in prison for investigation!"

Zhang Zhou was stunned. He didn't understand what was going on. Those officials of the interior government had rushed up.

Eleven Lang and other squires rushed up without hesitation, but Zhang Zhou shouted loudly! The officials also stopped their actions, and the two sides were deadlocked for a moment.

Hong Xi looked at the angry guards and said with a smile: "what? Does the Marquis of Kyushu want to gather people to resist the order?"

"Manager, can you tell me what crime I have committed?"

Hung Xi lowered his head and joined the ears of Zhang's boat. He whispered, "Hou ye, is it a big sin to ruin the reputation of your highness?"

Zhang Zhou felt his brain buzzing all at once!

"Hou ye, do you choose to follow me obediently, or do you intend to resist tenaciously, but you have to make a good idea!" Hong Xi said again.

After lightning thinking, Zhang Zhou looked back at Shi Lang.

"All step back and stay at the dock until I come back!"

Eleven Lang and others are unwilling, but they have to obey the arrangement! Hong Xi smiled when he heard the speech. He didn't know whether to laugh at Zhang Zhou's innocence or at the overconfidence of those people!

Perhaps, some face problems were also taken into account, or maybe it was because Zhang Zhou was hanging a post in the house of internal affairs, so he didn't put a yoke on Zhang Zhou, but chained his hands and shut him in the car!

Since reincarnation, I have experienced a lot of life and death tests, but it's the first time to be caught in prison. That feeling is totally different! No one said a word to him all the way, which made Zhang Zhou's heart uncontrollable!

From Hong Xi's performance, his situation is extremely bad. Although Kyushu's business development is fast and large, it has not yet reached the point of competing with the state machine. He has too many concerns and concerns in all aspects, and he is unprepared. He can only obediently obey!

As a last resort, he must not openly oppose Zhao Qianyuan!

The princess was banned a few days ago, and it is very likely that she was arrested because of the same thing; Tang Si Niang didn't know the reason why the princess was banned, which means that only a small range of people must know about it; His majesty asked Lu Xiaoyi to call himself to Beijing for standby, a month ago; Then Zhao Qianyuan's order to arrest him should also be a temporary change; When Hong Xi learned that he had arrived at the wharf, he came to catch people in person for fear of running away. According to time, as soon as he got on the wharf, the other party knew, and the other party did not mean Zhao Qianyuan; Think of Zhao Qianyuan deliberately bypassing the house of internal affairs, and Hong Xi preaching to himself; Including Zhao Qianyuan's will

Countless conjectures are intertwined and constantly churning in Zhang Zhou's mind! I feel vaguely that a big event is really going to happen in Kyoto!

……

After entering Beijing, the team directly entered the Forbidden City, and Zhang Zhou was put in the prison of the interior government!

The whole process was very harmonious. Zhang Zhou didn't struggle and shout grievances, and the officials of the interior government didn't push and bully. After sending Zhang Zhou to a secluded cell underground, he withdrew!

Just when Zhang Zhou turned around and had nowhere to put it, he unexpectedly met an acquaintance, Xiao yingzi.

Xiaoyingzi had grown a lot taller. After confirming that there was no one around, he approached the fence of the cell.

"Hou ye, are you all right?"

"It's all right. I didn't beat or scold! Why are you here?"

"I'm on duty here!"

"Aren't you working in Qianming palace?"

"After the adoptive father left, the trustee placed me here and said that the fight in the court was too cruel for fear that I would suffer a loss! Although there was no chance to stand out here, it was safe!"

Zhang Zhou nodded.

"Simply, you can resign. Go to Hezhou and your brother will support you!"

Xiaoyingzi was also big. He understood a lot. He bowed his head and sighed, "I'm already a useless man. What can I do when I go out? It's better to stay in the palace than make people tell me what to do and look down on me behind my back!"

"What kind of loser? You can't look down on yourself. My uncle teaches painting in Hezhou academy now. Which student dares not respect it! As long as you have confidence, my brother will let you live..."

"Lord Hou, don't talk about me first. What's your plan, but what do you need me to do?"

It's a sense of loyalty to say this at this time. Zhang Zhou thought and shook his head. Now things should be very complicated, and I don't dare to make a judgment easily!

"Have you heard of my accusation?"

Although it was an independent cell, Xiao Ying Zi looked at it again for four times, and then whispered, "listen to the work of the house of duty," you and your royal highness are not clear, your majesty is extremely angry, so that's the purpose of catching you! "

Zhang Zhou doesn't understand the law of the Tang Dynasty. He really doesn't know whether the princess's reputation will be beheaded?

"Will those who are locked in be directly beheaded?"

"Usually not. It must be interrogated. If you want to kill your head, you have to make a charge, especially the person your majesty ordered to catch!"

Zhang Zhou took a deep breath and calmed down a little!

"Can you do something for me?"

"Lord, you can tell me anything. Xiaoyingzi will do his best!"

……

It didn't take long to feel that Zhang Zhou, who had been in a state of wishful thinking, heard a burst of mixed footsteps.

Zhang Zhou opened his eyes and, with the help of the lights, saw a group of people come to his cell. The light was dim. Zhang Zhou didn't see who the visitor was.

"Open the door!" someone shouted.

"Brother Ying!"

Zhang Zhou recognized the owner of the voice at the first time and hurried to get up. Zhao Qiying had opened the door and rushed in, holding Zhang Zhou who wanted to pay homage.

"Are you okay? Have they ever bullied you?"

"No!"

Zhang Zhou glanced at Zhao Qiying's back. There were Lao Jia and Hong Xi. The others were officials of the interior government!

Before Zhao Qiying continued to speak, Hong Xi said with a smile, "Your Highness, you'd better go out and talk!"

"What? I can't say a few words to my brother?"

"Your Highness, the old slave doesn't have the courage. It's just bad luck here. It's not good to stay for a long time. Moreover, several adults are waiting outside. As the crown prince, your highness should not miss the business for personal reasons!"

Zhang Zhou was surprised again. Hong Xi spoke to Zhao Qiying in a soft tone, but his words were full of disrespect! What does that mean? Is the prince Zhao Qiying so weak? Let a slave make innuendo to his face?

Zhao Qiying was about to get angry. Zhang Zhou gently pinched him. Zhao Qiying gave a knowing "hum" and ignored Hong Xi. Instead, he turned to Zhang Zhou and said, "your father ordered a joint trial. You don't have to worry too much. If you say it, if you don't, you don't have to say it. With the king, no one dares to frame you, okay?"

Zhang Zhou nodded!

Zhao Qiying insisted on walking side by side with Zhang Zhou. No one dared to tear it apart! On the way, Zhao Qiying continued to remind him that this time, Prime Minister Zhuge Wenshan was the main judge, and Jiang Ju, the main hall of the inspection department, and Hong Xi, the chief manager of the interior government, were the Deputy judges, who were responsible for the joint investigation of his case.

In the expression, the words "chief executive of the house of internal affairs" bite very hard, which shows the deep resentment in his heart, and Hong Xi walking in front is like unheard of!

If Zhang Zhou himself was not the principal offender, he would ask, is the efficiency of handling cases in the court so high now? Or is everything ready and waiting for the principal offender to be brought to justice?

Zhao Qiying got the news and hurried over to explain that the other party didn't plan for too long. There was only one explanation left. The other party was very anxious!

Not to mention the relationship between the three people responsible for interrogating themselves and themselves, but what he saw with his own eyes, the contradiction and accumulated resentment between Zhao Qiying and Hong Xi made Zhang Zhou feel heavy!

Although I am far away from the court, I have correspondence with Zhao Qiying and my teacher Cao Yi. These contradictions are unheard of. It seems that it is not just a royal struggle, but much more complex than I imagined. There is indeed a serious problem with my intelligence agency!

The house of internal affairs has its own place for interrogation. The space is slightly smaller than the penalty Hall of the criminal arrest yamen, but all kinds of facilities are complete.

Zhuge Wenshan, the chief judge, first gave the prince a slight salute, and then nodded politely to Zhang Zhou. Jiang Ju had no expression on Zhang Zhou's face.

"Prime minister, can we start?" Hong Xi asked respectfully.

Zhuge Wenshan smiled.

"The old minister used to be a teacher of his royal highness. He should have avoided the case."

"This is the difference between the prime minister and the Lord. The Royal Highness is the victim of the injustice, and this Zhang Zhoucai is the first evil of the culprit. You will be more righteous and vain by your own trial. Surely this is also your Majesty's thought!" hung HSIE said with a smile.

Zhuge Wenshan nodded and said to the prince, "Your Highness, what do you need to add?"

Zhao Qiying shook her head.

"Let's start!"

Sitting in the third instance, Jiang Ju took the lead in speaking.

"Zhang Zhou, do you know why I came to catch you?"

Zhang Zhou took a deep breath.

"I don't know!"

"You know that you are a stubborn person! Have you got any definite evidence in your hand to prove that you have deceived your highness?"

"How can you plead guilty to nothing?"

"All right! Since Kyushu Hou is so interested, let's take our time! Bring the witness!"

After that, the internal affairs official brought in a warrior like man from the outside. When the man came in, he knelt directly in front of the hall.

Zhang Zhou had a vague impression of this man.

"Who is kneeling under the hall?"

"Lord Hui, villain Chen Wu, is the bodyguard of the princess's house!"

"Tell the truth what you see!"

"Yes, sir, I've seen Kyushu Hou enter the princess's house several nights and enter the princess's boudoir alone!"

"What else did you find?"

"Villains are waiters. I don't know the specific things!"

"Look at the one around you. Have you ever known him?"

The bodyguard turned to look at Zhang Zhou and replied, "this is Zhang Zhou, the Marquis of Kyushu!"

"You said Zhang Zhou went into the princess's house at night! It's dark and short. Can you see it clearly?"

"Kyushu Hou once stopped under the lamp. The villain can see it clearly!"

"But I know this matter is very important. If you dare to talk nonsense and make something out of nothing, you will be killed!"

"Every truth, no lie!"

"Step back!"

"Slow!"

Jiang Ju looked at Zhao Qiying who was talking and got up to hold his fist!

"Does your highness have any questions?"

"Kyushu Hou hasn't confronted this thing yet. How can he step down!"

Jiang Ju smiled and nodded.

"Kyushu Hou, do you have a defense?"

Zhang Zhou smiled bitterly. He had trapped Qinglin by this means before, but now he has been trapped by others. It's really a turn of Feng Shui! Sure enough, it confirmed the sentence: if you come out to mix, you will pay it back sooner or later!

"Chen Wu?"

"Yes!"

"Who is closer to your highness, you and ye Baimei?"

"The villain waiters, in terms of trust, are far less than ye steward!"

"You've seen me enter the princess's house several times at night. Ye Baimei should know more. It's more convincing to let her testify!"

"Zhang Zhou, you don't decide who to testify!" said Hong Xi.

Faced with the old guy who accepted countless benefits, Zhang Zhou was really speechless.

"If this kind of person's words are testimony, I can find a hundred people to prove that I haven't entered the princess's house at night!"

Jiang Ju waved and Chen Wu quickly stepped down.

"Take the next witness!"
