C399 Rescue

No one replied. It turned out that Zhang Xian had been imprisoned the most, and received the most torture, so he was already on the verge of death.

He was willing to go to jail so he could exchange for everyone's lives. Now, Zhang Xian was in danger, what about Yu Peng, Sun Ge and the rest? What would they do in the future?

That night, he sat against the stone wall, where did he sleep? He took out a jade bracelet from his chest pocket. It was the bracelet his wife wanted him to carry around with her. In this cold night, he missed his wife and son. If he died, who would take care of him? Especially his wife, what should he do in this life?

He sat blankly on the stone wall. Recalling the battle between the Dongting Lake, the arrival of Li Qiaoniang, and his wife's cold war, he deeply regretted it. Why did he have to quarrel with his wife? This separation lasted for a few months, and because there were not many days left, even the waste of those months became a deep regret. If he could turn back time, even if it was just a small quarrel, he wouldn't be angry with his wife anymore. Holding the jade bracelet in his hand, he was actually lost in thought. He didn't feel any pain on his back at all.

After a long while, he suddenly stood up. Although Zhao Deji stated that he was not guilty of a crime, but according to the despicable nature of the person he reneged on his words, the Sister by blood could still make a move.

The more he thought about it, the more scared he became. He slowly stood up, his bones creaking in the darkness without making a single sound.

He had wanted to preserve his own life, but in the end, no one was able to.

Regret! If it was a Zhu Xian Town, then he would rise up immediately!

Prime Minister's Estate.

Qin Gui had brought back the news of Fourth Prince forgiving him, and in front of Zhao Deji, the Lifelong Prime Minister had also steadily protected his safety, so there was nothing to worry about anymore.

accompanied him and did not scold him again for the first time in history.

The errand boy led Moqi Wai in, and Qin Gui said passionately: "You've worked hard, drink a cup of wine first and then go cold."

"Thank you, Qin Chuanggong."

Moqi Wai drank three cups in a row, and reported while smiling, "Qin Chuanggong, today's torture was extremely effective on Yue Pengju …"

"Hahaha, well fought! Tomorrow we will continue the fight and use all sorts of punishments. Let's see if he will confess or not."

Moqi Wai understood tacitly. Although he did not know what deep grudges Yue Pengju and his wife had against Qin Gui, there would still be conflicts. Qin Gui wanted to seize the opportunity to avenge his wife. He once again asked for instructions: "Zhang Xian, Yu Peng and the rest do not confess, how should we deal with them?"

Qin Gui was extremely pleased, he waved his hand: "This group of loyal martial artists, just let them follow Yue Pengju …" His words had yet to finish when he heard Wang Junhua's cough. He immediately shut his mouth and came to his senses, as he remembered Fourth Prince's orders. He was furious and puzzled, why did the Fourth Prince request for Yu Peng and the rest to be released? However, Yue Pengju was a thorn in his side, and since he had already eliminated them, the other people were not enough to be feared, killing or not, it did not matter. After all, his own life was still in the hands of the Fourth Prince.

He immediately said, "Fine, the Son of Heaven is kind. He will only pursue the culprit and the villain. This group of martial artists will not be in a hurry to deal with them." You only need to urge Yue Pengju to draw. " Actually, it didn't matter whether Yue Pengju drew or not. What he wanted was to torture Yue Pengju to his heart's content.

Moqi Wai found it a little difficult to speak, "No matter how I torture him, I won't be able to obtain a confession. Yue Pengju meant to release Zhang Xian, Yu Peng and the others so that they would be willing to confess … "

"Then let's stop the torture of these people first, and mainly punish Yue Pengju alone."

"Don't worry Qin Chuanggong, our family will definitely ask Yue Pengju to draw a bet for us within three days."

"Alright."

"Moqi Zhongcheng, you've done a great service this time! I'll definitely guarantee that you'll rise through the ranks one step at a time!"

"Thank you, phase of grace."

Moqi Wai was overjoyed. With the help of the Prime Minister, he would definitely ascend the mountain for the rest of his life. Qin Gui was also very excited. Although he had long been wary of Zhao Deji and could not allow anyone to call him "phase of grace", but at the moment, Moqi Wai's "phase of grace" was perfect for him.

Qin Gui turned his gaze. Seeing that Wang Junhua was about to reveal his power, he suddenly heard an urgent voice from outside, "Qin Chuanggong …"

It was actually Han Zhongliang who barged in.

Qin Gui heaved a sigh of relief. When Moqi Wai saw Han Zhongliang, he felt guilty and quickly retreated to the side. Wang Junhua also quickly retreated.

After the two of them clasped their hands and bowed to each other, Han Zhongliang said angrily: "Qin Chuanggong had long framed us, and now we are using Zhang Xian to frame Yue Wu, are we not afraid of the Shangguan Family's Gods' anger?"

Qin Gui laughed coldly, "What does it have to do with me that the case was decided by His Majesty?"

"I've asked around and found out that in the case of Yue 51, there was a lot of torture, yet there was still no confession. It's obviously a case of injustice. "

"Even though Zhang Xian's letter is not enough to prove anything, 'I don't need to explain it properly' (This sentence is the origin of the word 'don't need' in the historical records, and is also the origin of the word 'don't need')."

Han Zhongliang shouted in fury, "How can the three words' do not need to be 'convince the world?"

Qin Gui said complacently: "Does this Han Xiang Gong not know that the matter regarding Yue Pengju was ordered by His Majesty and ordered to be imprisoned?"

Han Zhongliang had nothing to say. After being silent for a while, he shouted loudly: "Yue Wu, Yue Wu, you saved me, I cannot save you", and left angrily.

After Han Zhongliang left, Qin Gui immediately went to the palace to report to Zhao Deji. Firstly, the negotiations on the Fourth Prince had been successful.

Zhao Deji was overjoyed. He immediately arranged for the envoys to head north to personally receive the return of the Empress Dowager Wei. He had also always emphasized the importance of the Empress Dowager's return. Finally, Zhao Deji frowned and asked: "How is Yue Pengju's confession?"

Qin Gui had a headache from the start, no matter how much he tortured, he could not get a proper proof. He tried to figure out Zhao Deji's mentality, and slyly said: "In the case of Yue Pengju, there was a letter from Zhang Xian, and there was also the three great crimes of the Censor's witness. Yue Pengju and his best friend refused to confess, and just with these two points, the case could be closed."

"Forget it, this is the end of the case. However, today is the 28th of the Moon, so how long must we delay this? "

Qin Gui said, "After Yuanxiao …"

Zhao Deji immediately interrupted him: "No, I want to celebrate New Year's Eve. If the execution is not good on New Year's Eve, then let's do it tomorrow. "

Qin Gui could only agree, "This subject accepts the decree."

Once Qin Gui left, Zhao Deji hurried back to his room.

It was made of silk, bamboo, and strings. The dancers' waists were as white as a layer of lard that had just started to condense. They emitted a meaty aroma.

Zhao Deji hugged his arms left and right, drinking to his heart's content.

Another goblet of wine entered his throat as he moaned, "What I have wanted all my life is to be the peaceful and happy son of heaven. However, in a short period of time, the peace talks were concluded, and the officials and officials were eliminated. Just that, in the recent days, there had been too many people reporting and barking, and they had actually helped Yue Pengju to complain and refuse to negotiate. "What's the purpose of this?" He looked at the mountain of memorials on the Desk, "Here are 62 reports on Qin Gui, of which the two Elementary Scholars are the most intense. These are the platitudes of a corrupt man, and they are tiresome. But we are magnanimous, and with the Taizu's instructions to protect those who speak, we set these sixty memorials on fire, and ordered them to be handed over to Qin Gui to be taken care of … "

Zhang Yingying, who was at the side, felt her heart turn cold when she heard this. She had accompanied Zhao Deji for more than ten years, but only now did she find out how the "benevolence" and "sinister" Emperor Arts existed together.

Zhang Quwei bowed and smiled, "The Shangguan Family is benevolent. The Inn is ignorant. Shao Shun Yu Tang, Xia Jie Shang Zhou, are all loess, to obtain joy and joy is the true essence of life. "

Zhao Deji was overjoyed upon hearing this, as if he was enlightened. In his early years, he had also dreamed of expelling the Golden Man and reviving its power. However, the price he paid was constant flight. What is a ruler? What made him the ruler of a dead nation? If he protected Jiangnan, he would be the King of Light! What was the difference between the death of a man and the death of a man in a historical book? Have to be happy and joyful, it is not in vain that a courtesan.

The more he thought about it, the more understanding he had become. "Zhang Quwei, I'll give you a hundred gold."

"Thank you, Shangguan Family."

Just as he was speaking, the eunuch that was executed a few days ago returned. Zhao Deji grew excited, he received a cup of wine as a reward, and the eunuch was overwhelmed by the favour as he drank it all down, and reported, "Shangguan Family, the corpse of the fake princess has been taken away …"

"Who retrieved the corpses for the cheap maidservant?"

"It's Hua Rong, and Prince Consort."

Zhao Deji sneered, the name on the list clearly stated that the fake princess was to be exposed to the public for three days, yet Hua Rong dared to act rashly, and helped her collect the corpse early.

"Shangguan Family, how should we deal with Hua Rong?"

Zhao Deji thought for a while, then shook his head: "Let's keep an eye on her movements. Just don't let her escape from Rian. " When he finished speaking, he felt that if he was not stable enough, he would have to kill Yue Pengju tomorrow. After killing his, it would be a huge problem to bring Hua Rong into the palace.

Yue Pengju's death, when he took over his widow, he would definitely be the laughing stock of the world. It would be a complete departure from the "benevolence and righteousness" that he had always proclaimed, and furthermore, he wouldn't be able to live up to such an evil reputation. However, if he let Hua Rong go, his hope of having a son would be completely gone.

His son, Jiang Shan, and his king, which was more important?

He gritted his teeth, why couldn't Hua Rong be like Wang Junhua? Be obedient, smart, warm pavilion once spring wind, pearl hidden knot, isn't it the best?

Outside the palace, the great eunuch and Kanggong who were not on duty today were as anxious as ants on a hot pan. He couldn't hold it in any longer, so he found an opportunity to slip out of the city quietly.

Wang Jixian's opulent courtyard was brightly lit, the Kanggong barged in, Wang Jixian dismissed the guards and brought him into the study. The moment the door closed, Kanggong hastily said: "Why are you not reporting to Shangguan Family?"

Wang Jixian's face was ashen as he grabbed onto his collar. "Damn eunuch, you've caused my death."

Kanggong was strangled by the neck, and was unable to breathe. "Wang Jixian, you were the one who gave the medicine to Shangguan Family, you can't get rid of the responsibility."

Wang Jixian strangled him with all his might, "Who was the one who threatened me that day? How dare you collude with the outlaws and harm the king. If I go and threaten Shangguan Family right now, this will be a heinous crime that will not be pardoned.

Kanggong rolled his eyes as he said, "There are antidote here …"

Wang Jixian said as his hand loosened, "To tell you the truth, the medicine was only given to Shangguan Family after this old man had examined it. And I used seven different methods to test them, none of them had any poison, so don't even think about using that to scare me. "

The Kanggong retreated three steps back and spoke in an insidious manner, "Wang Jixian, that medicine is a Lich Gu. Naturally, you won't be able to find it. After two years, you will know the truth... "At that time, your whole family will be sentenced to death penalty …"

Wang Jixian's eyes flashed with a dangerous light, "I'll kill you first, who knows?"

Kanggong took another step back: "If you kill me, Shangguan Family will know tomorrow that it was you who poisoned my medicine. If you don't believe me, you can try."

Wang Jixian rolled his eyes, "If you want to save Yue Pengju, then don't even think about it. Otherwise, before next year, both of us will die today. You have served Shangguan Family for many years, so you should understand his character. If you knew about this, both of us will definitely be found and executed by him. Kangkang, do you want to choose between Yue Pengju's life and yours? "
