In late November, Uncle Yuanling, the Marquis of Yuanling, sued King Zhao Run, which caused an uproar in Daliang City and became a topic of conversation among the subjects of Daliang. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

In this case, the Criminal Department, the Great Liang Mansion, the Inner Chamberlain, and the Green Crows all went out one after another, hoping to curb this public opinion that was unfavorable to Zhao Hongrun, the king of Su, however, because this matter spread throughout the city in just one or two days, so that these four forces went their separate ways, and they failed to suppress this public opinion.

In view of this result, the imperial court finally couldn't bear it anymore, and finally on November 25, the Vertical Arch Hall issued a notice that the three people of "Daliang Mansion Zheng Chu Shuli", the new "Criminal Department Shangshu Tang Zheng", and "Dali Temple Qingzheng Xu Rong" jointly investigated the case thoroughly.

After receiving the order of the Vertical Arch Palace, Chu Shuli of the Daliang Mansion was at a loss, the reason was very simple, because the defendant in this case was Zhao Run, the king of Su, if there was any mistake in this case, then he, the Daliang Mansion, was probably the end.

After thinking about it, Chu Shuli first sent someone to invite Tang Zheng, the secretary of the Criminal Department, and Xu Rong, the secretary of the Dali Temple, and the three chief officials of the case met first in the Daliang Mansion.

I have to say that not only Chu Shuli was at a loss for this, but Tang Zheng and Xu Rong also secretly complained.

During this period, Xu Rong said with a wry smile: "This case should be decided by the sect." ”

This is true, in the Wei State, if the children of the royal family are involved, they will basically be judged by the Zongfu, and Zhao Hongrun, the king of Su, is a member of the royal family of Ji Zhao, and when he is involved in his case, he actually let the Daliang Mansion, the Criminal Department, and the Dali Temple adjudicate, which makes Chu Shuli, Tang Zheng, and Xu Rong smile bitterly in addition to the accident.

Of course, the three of them actually knew the reason in their hearts - to avoid suspicion.

After all, everyone in the court knows that it is not Zhao Yuanyan, who is currently in charge of the Zongfu, but Zhao Yuanyan, the king of Yi, who is the commander of the Zongfu.

It is no exaggeration to say that the position of "Zongling" seems to be the adjutant of "Zongzheng", but in fact, it has emptied the authority of the latter.

And this Yiwang Zhao Yuanyan, who is currently in charge of the Zongfu, is precisely the sixth uncle who has loved Su King Zhao Hongrun the most since he was a child.

At the beginning, when Zhao Hongrun, the king of Su, was not valued by Wei Tianzi, Zhao Yuanyan and Zhao Hongrun, two uncles and nephews, had a better relationship than father and son.

Because of this incident, Daliang once even spread a rumor, saying that King Yi Zhao Yuanli loved Zhao Hongrun, the king of Su, and because he did not have a son and a daughter, he begged Wei Tianzi to succeed the latter to him, but unfortunately Wei Tianzi refused.

Therefore, because the defendant this time is precisely Zhao Hongrun, the king of Su, in order to avoid suspicion, Zhao Yuanli should not come forward, otherwise, even if the case is finally verified by the Zongfu and has nothing to do with Zhao Hongrun, the king of Su, it will be difficult to gain the trust of the public.

"What do you two adults think about this?" Chu Shuli asked Tang Zheng and Xu Rongdao.

Hearing this, Xu Rong stroked his beard and smiled: "Let's listen to Tang Shangshu's high opinion first, Tang Shangshu is Zhou Shangshu's right-hand man." The Zhou Shangshu in his mouth refers to Zhou Yan, the previous secretary of the Criminal Department who was killed.

Because Xu Rong was the oldest among the three and Tang Zheng was the youngest, seeing that Xu Rong had already said this, Tang Zheng was not easy to refuse, and said with a frown: "Tang thinks that this matter should not be done by King Su. …… What is King Su's temper and character, I believe that the two elders know more or less, like people who will condone the personal vendetta of the subordinates? ”

"What does Lord Tang mean that Marquis Yuanling and others framed King Su?" Chu Shuli, the head of the Great Liang Mansion, frowned and said: "But this is a serious crime to frame, not to mention that it is a prince who is framed......"

Hearing this, Tang Zheng said with a wry smile: "This is also the reason why Tang can't figure it out. …… It seems that the Marquis of Yuanling and others should frame the prince for what kind of crime, at least he will be cut off the knight, and at worst he will be confiscated into the army, I really can't figure out what reason and confidence he has to dare to do this. ”

"Lord Tang means ......" Dali Temple Qingzheng Xu Rong's face changed slightly.

Seeing this, Tang Zheng hurriedly waved his hand and explained: "No, no, no, Lord Xu, don't misunderstand, Tang did not suspect King Su, Tang just felt that only under one possibility, the Marquis of Yuan Ling and others would dare to ...... No, it would. As he spoke, he glanced at Chu Shuli and Xu Rong, lowered his voice and said, "For example, I was forced to be helpless and had to take risks...... I believe that the two adults of King Su have also seen the actions of King Su in the past few days, King Su has won over Zhao Shen, the king of Chengling, and others, but he has pushed Uncle Hou of Yuanling and others to the opposite side, which shows that King Su has the intention of ruling the domestic nobles in his heart. Maybe Uncle Yuanling Hou Yu and others also saw the situation clearly and thought that the disaster was just around the corner, so they came to strike first, spoil the reputation of King Su, and unite the nobles in the world to resist King Su's suppression, which makes sense. ”

"It makes sense."

Daliang Mansion Zheng Chu Shuli and Dali Temple Qing Zheng Xu Rong nodded thoughtfully.

And when the three adults were gathering in the Great Liang Mansion to discuss, in the study of the Suwang Mansion, Zhao Hongrun also talked to the guards with a sneer about it.

As a party concerned, Zhao Hongrun naturally knows best whether he has sent someone to do this.

The answer, of course, was no—he wouldn't give such an order unless his head was squeezed by the door panel.

But the key is that at the banquet in the Qingwang Mansion that day, he Zhao Hongrun did say in front of everyone, "I want to ask Yan Lingjun to disturb the shops under the name of the Marquis of Yuanling", but I didn't expect that after half a month, the shops under the name of the Marquis of Yuanling in Yuanling City were really attacked by unknown people.

"It's very smart, this Yuanling Marquis ......"

Sitting behind the desk in the study, Zhao Hongrun touched his chin and said with interest: "In order to frame this king, he did not hesitate to secretly ask someone to attack the shop under his name, which is ruthless enough, but it's a pity...... Hum! ”

At this, there was a slight disdain in his eyes.

The reason is very simple, because in the past half a month, he has secretly ordered the green crows of Shangshui to send people to investigate the various crimes of the Yuanling Marquis and Uncle Yu, and indeed found that the Yuanling Marquis has many crimes such as annexing land through improper channels and secretly manipulating the price of rice.

Of course, this is not surprising, as long as the domestic nobles are rich, and there are few clean foundations, as long as they have the heart to check, they can always find clues.

In view of this incident, Zhao Hongrun suspected that it was very likely that Uncle Yuanling Hou Yu noticed that he Zhao Hongrun sent the green crows to track down the evidence of his crimes, so the dog jumped over the wall in a hurry, and the guards stole and destroyed the shop under his name, so as to frame him Zhao Hongrun and beat him upside down.

Therefore, Zhao Hongrun didn't care, because in his opinion, paper can't hold the fire, what is the truth, as long as the Daliang Mansion, the Criminal Department, and the Dali Temple send people to investigate the case, then sooner or later it will come out.

When he waited until the evening, Zongwei Mu Qing told Zhao Hongrun: "Your Highness, the Great Liang Mansion sent someone to summon you, Your Highness, and when you are in the middle of tomorrow, you will go to the Great Liang Mansion to confront the Marquis of Nayuan Mausoleum." ”

Zhao Hongrun nodded: "You go and reply, this king will go on time." ”

"Yes." Mu Qing clenched his fists and left.

The next day, Zhao Hongrun got up early, rebelled in the mansion, and then took a carriage to Daliang Mansion under the escort of the guards.

When Zhao Hongrun came to the door of the Daliang Mansion Office, there were many carriages parked outside the steps.

In front of the official office, Zhao Shen, the king of Chengling, and Zhao Tan, the Marquis of Anping, were standing there and whispering something, and when they saw the carriage of the Suwang Mansion stopped in front of the door of the official office, Zhao Shen, the king of Chengling, and Zhao Tan, the marquis of Anping, came over and said hello to Zhao Hongrun, who got off the carriage.

"You two are also coming to the play?"

Zhao Hongrun greeted Zhao Shen, the king of Chengling, and Zhao Tan, the Marquis of Anping, at a discount - after the collapse of the camp of the great nobles, Zhao Shen, the king of Chengling, and Zhao Tan, the marquis of Anping, both chose to go to his side, so Zhao Hongrun was quite polite when greeting him.

However, Zhao Shen, the king of Chengling, and Zhao Tan, the marquis of Anping, were full of solemnity on their faces.

"His Royal Highness King Su."

Zhao Shen, the king of Chengling, looked left and right, and said in a low voice: "Uncle Yuanling Hou Yu and others are already in the official office...... Your Highness, I feel that something is not quite right. ”

"What do you mean?" Zhao Hongrun looked at Zhao Shen, the king of Chengling, suspiciously.

Seeing this, Zhao Tan, Marquis of Anping, frowned and said: "Fang Cai, when the two of us saw the Marquis of Yuanling, they saw a face full of anger, which didn't seem to be a hypocrisy......"

Hearing this, Zhao Hongrun said with some displeasure: "Is Anping Marquis suspicious of this king? ”

"Absolutely not." Anping Marquis Zhao Tan shook his head, and then lowered his voice and said: "Your Highness's words that day, anyone can hear it, just to scare the Marquis of Yuanling, it's just ......"

As soon as he said this, he saw a greeting from the door of the office: "His Royal Highness King Su." ”

Zhao Tan, Marquis of Anping, then closed his voice, and Zhao Hongrun and Zhao Shen, the king of Chengling, turned his head to look, and just saw Chu Shuli, the head of the Liang Mansion, Tang Zheng, the secretary of the Criminal Department, and Xu Rong, the secretary of the Dali Temple, going out of the house to greet each other.

After a few words of greeting, Zhao Hongrun went to the main hall of Daliang Mansion under the leadership of Chu Shuli, Tang Zheng, and Xu Rong.

When he saw Zhao Hongrun, Uncle Yuanling Hou was stunned, his eyes were spewing fire, and the fierce god seemed to want to eat Zhao Hongrun, and Zhao Hongrun was slightly stunned - this guy who clearly framed him, why is it like this?

Because this case is an internal trial of the Daliang Mansion and is not open to the public, seeing that the two parties have arrived, the Daliang Mansion is Zheng Chu Shuli and has started the trial.

Seeing this, Uncle Yuanling Hou couldn't wait to speak first, and crackled and said a lot of accusing Zhao Hongrun.

“…… In the banquet at the Qingwang Mansion that day, King Su threatened Ben Hou with conclusive words in full view of everyone, Ben Hou thought it was just a joke, but he didn't expect that King Su deceived people too much, and really sent someone to attack my family business. ”

As the presiding judge, the Daliang Mansion glanced at Zhao Hongrun, and saw that the latter was looking at Uncle Yuanling Hou with a bit of a stunned look, although he asked the latter: "Yuanling Hou, how can you be sure that King Su's subordinates did it?" Could there be any misunderstanding? ”

"Misunderstanding?" Uncle Yuanling Hou Yu sneered, pointed at Zhao Hongrun and said in a deep voice: "Lord Hui, Xiaohou has sent to confirm that when the family business of my Yu family was attacked, there happened to be an army under the command of King Su passing through Yuanling County...... Could it be a misunderstanding?! ”

"......" Chu Shuli frowned when he heard this, turned his head to look at Zhao Hongrun, and asked, "His Royal Highness King Su, what does His Highness have to say about this?" ”

At this time, Zhao Hongrun was staring intently at Uncle Yuanling Hou.

As Zhao Tan, Marquis of Anping, said, Uncle Yuanling Marquis had a posture of asking for guilt, and he couldn't see any signs of weakness at all.

If this is pretended, Zhao Hongrun must admit that Uncle Yuanling Hou Yu pretended to be very similar, which can be called fake and real.
