Chapter 920: Grounded

"Master Zhang, what the hell is going on," Sure enough, as Zhang Fan expected, he finally asked Zhang Fan here, "You said this, but there is real evidence,"

"Yes, Lord Zhang, this kind of thing, it is not a trivial matter to say that there is a vassal ** in the dynasty to assassinate His Majesty," immediately, since someone has already spoken, there will naturally be someone who will follow immediately," said this, but he was responsible, if there was no real evidence, he falsely framed the prince of this dynasty, this crime, I think Lord Zhang can't afford it,"

"That's it, how can you ......"

“……”

All of a sudden, the court was full of questions against Zhang Fan, of course, it wasn't that there was any holiday between these people and Zhang Fan, and now they broke out like this with such an opportunity, they were not like this, and even now many people are pointing at Zhang Fan and saying these words in a questioning tone, but they don't actually want to do anything to Zhang Fan.

Although these people are a little excited now, but these people are not stupid, even if they are so excited, but they understand very well in their hearts, no matter how this matter is said, in fact, it has nothing to do with Zhang Fan, even if it is the cause now, this beginning, these words were said by Zhang Fan, but this does not mean that this is Zhang Fan's original intention, and in fact, no one will think that Zhang Fan originally thought so.

This has nothing to do with what Zhang Fan's identity is, no matter who he changes, if he wants to say such a thing in front of so many ministers, it is conditional, and this condition is definitely not his own reason, not whether he knows it or not, and whether he wants to say it or not, if it is just because of himself, as long as this person is not a fool, it is absolutely impossible to say it.

And Zhang Fan, is he a fool, absolutely not, he was able to get the favor of two generations of emperors, maybe it was an element of luck at the beginning, but if he can continue until now, it is definitely his own ability, so Zhang Fan is not a stupid person no matter what he says.

So now, Zhang Fan will say such a thing, it has nothing to do with him at all, these people present understand very well in their hearts, it must be someone behind Zhang Fan who asked him to say this, he will say this, who is that person, in fact, it is not difficult to guess, first of all, the person who can make Zhang Fan speak like this must be a person with a higher identity and power status than him, looking at the current court, there are really many people who can have this identity, but at the same time as having such an identity, There are really not many people who have such power.

Like Zhang Juzheng and Feng Bao, the power in their hands can barely be counted, but the identity is not enough, and if it is any other prince or prince, or even if it is the current Son of Heaven, this identity is absolutely enough, but these people have no power, and Zhang Fan cannot say such a thing for someone who has no power to protect him, almost pushing himself to the forefront.

In other words, the answer is already obvious, now there is only one person who has both the identity and the power to order Zhang Fan to say such a thing, it is the current owner of Cining Palace, and now the power of the whole world, the biological mother of the current saint, the Empress Dowager Li is also, and, except for the Empress Dowager Li, she will definitely not think about the second person.

In other words, the reason why Zhang Fan said this just now was entirely because it was ordered by the Empress Dowager Li, and it was the Empress Dowager Li who asked him to say this, almost at this moment, all the ministers present thought of this possibility, and among these people, most of them were already convinced of this possibility for a long time, and the rest of the people, although they were not convinced, were only skeptical.

Those people asked Zhang Fan just now, just to determine this.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please be quiet and listen to what the official says," Zhang Fan said loudly.

Suddenly, all the people in the hall closed their mouths, all looked at Zhang Fan, waiting for him to speak, after all, they were arguing just now, in the final analysis, just to find out what was going on in this matter, since Zhang Fan is going to speak now, of course they have to listen.

"This official knows what you are thinking in your hearts," Zhang Fan looked at these people and said, "And since this official has already admitted this matter just now, and said that this matter is related to a current vassal king of this dynasty, this kind of thing will naturally not be nonsense by this official,"

Zhang Fan said this, stopped, and below, the ministers who heard Zhang Fan's words did not start to make noise again like just now, but looked at each other, but this time in the eyes of these people, the look was absolutely wrong, how to say it, even if no one spoke, but now there is a strange atmosphere everywhere in the entire hall, and those bachelors and monks who have known about this matter for a long time also showed puzzled expressions, looking at Zhang Fan, Although they also thought that Zhang Fan would say this, it must have been instructed by the Empress Dowager Li, but they were also curious and wanted to know what Zhang Fan would say next.

"Just now, Lord Ge stood up to ask, and the official also answered truthfully," Zhang Fan continued, "Yes, this time His Majesty was assassinated, that is, there are this official and the Jinyi Guard under the official to investigate, now, the assassin has been captured by my men, and is now locked up in the Jinyi Guard's yamen for interrogation, but this assassin is very tough, since he was sent back the night before, my subordinates have not been idle, but until now, he still refuses to speak," Speaking of this, Zhang Fan stopped again, Although he showed a very troubled expression on his face, he kept laughing in his heart, what kind of interrogation until now, it is good that Zhuo Yang is now locked up in the yamen, but what is the interrogation, all day long with Liang Chao and the two of them, he can't go out now, and he can't practice kung fu, except for messing around with Liang Chao and the two people, there is nothing else to do.

However, what Zhang Fan thinks here is his business, and over there, when the people present heard Zhang Fan say this, what they thought in their hearts was completely different, Jinyiwei, even if he changed Zhang Fan to such a gentle commander, it was always Jinyiwei, there are many things that will not change, not to mention, for this kind of thing that the emperor was assassinated, since the Empress Dowager Li handed it over to Zhang Fan to investigate, it is absolutely impossible for Zhang Fan to use his life as a bet on his gentleness, that is to say, Zhang Fan's words, when these ministers sounded, really made them feel a little frightened.

Jin Yiwei, the prisoner who assassinated the emperor, interrogated for almost two whole days, and didn't ask anything, treating this kind of thing, everyone can think of it, Zhang Fan took over this task from the Empress Dowager Li, but it is also equivalent to taking a hot potato, well done is another matter, but if he can't find out, he will inevitably be unlucky, so everyone present feels that Jin Yiwei's interrogation this time will definitely not show mercy, except because this assassin is very important and can't be killed, As long as you have a breath, you will toss hard.

And after two days, he was interrogated by Jinyiwei like this, and he didn't say a word, if it looked like an outsider, he would just be surprised that this assassin was really a tough guy, and he could withstand such torture, but these people present would not look at it like this, they would not care about what would happen to an assassin, this matter, the first thing they saw was that there was definitely something behind this matter.

To be able to find such an assassin to assassinate the emperor, it is obvious that the person who did this thing is definitely skillful, and not only that, this person must also be powerful and powerful, otherwise it is absolutely impossible to find such an assassin, this assassin may have been the person under that person, or maybe this assassin has some trick caught by that person, so that he has to do this, but no matter which one it is, it makes the people present feel that this matter is definitely unusual.

In other words, he was just a very tough assassin, but he had already made these people present believe that what Zhang Fan said, that a vassal king was implicated in this assassination incident, it is very likely that it was not frightening, it was true.

"Now, there is no more evidence in the hands of this official," Zhang Fan waited for a while, allowing these people to digest what he had just said, and then continued, "However, no matter how powerful this assassin is, he is just one person after all, please rest assured, I believe that Jinyiwei will have a way to pry his mouth open and let him speak,"

"But, Lord Taifu," as soon as Zhang Fan's words fell, someone immediately stood up and questioned again, "Lord Taifu said it himself just now, and now there is no more evidence, and the official can't control whether the assassin is tough or not, but the official only knows that the assassin hasn't spoken, in that case, Lord Taifu shouldn't have guessed what the news is, why, just now Lord Taifu said that this matter involved a vassal king of this dynasty, but he said it so surely, Lord Taifu, isn't this a contradiction?"

"yes, yes......"

"It's ......"

“……”

Immediately, there was a discussion again.

"Ladies and gentlemen, since this official dares to say this, it is naturally well-founded," Zhang Fan said, "Besides, how can this official be able to tell right and wrong in this matter?"

Zhang Fan's words once again made the hall quiet.

"And ......" Zhang Fan looked around and said with a smile, "Actually, this matter, not only Zhang Fan can be sure, in fact, yesterday, the bachelors of the cabinet and the scholars of the six departments also knew about this matter, and they can also testify,"

Zhang Fan threw a question to a few other people who were all surprised,
