For Wu Sanzhong, the problem of embezzlement and bribery and enriching his own pockets is not a big problem at all.

I think that before Wu Zetian officially ascended the throne that day, let him lead his troops out of Lingnan Road and go to Chang'an to escort him, the intention was not true, and he lacked the little strength under his Wu Sanzhong. But in Wu Zetian's heart, he already regarded him as a member of the martial arts family. Next, he only needs to make great achievements, and it will never be a problem to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors.

Because Wu Sansi and Wu Chengsi tried their best to obstruct it, Wu Sanzhong failed to do so.

The reason why his two prime minister's cousins did this, in addition to not wanting to get a piece of the pie from the emperor's aunt's pampering, there is also a very practical factor -

That is, Wu Zetian is now almost seventy, how long can this emperor be the emperor, and how many days can the dragon chair on the Jinluan Hall sit? The question of choosing an heir has long been imminent.

Although the day of the usurpation of the Tang Dynasty and the Zhou ascending the throne, she made Li Dan the crown prince and gave the surname Wu. But why didn't Wu Zetian worry that after a hundred years, Li Dan would change his surname back to Li and restore the Tang Dynasty? is even worried that after Li Dan changed his surname to the Tang Dynasty, he began to settle accounts with the children of the Wu family, and if one counts one by one, it will be impossible to escape the doom of anti-Tang!

Isn't Wu Zetian busy all his life?

Therefore, as for who will be passed on in a hundred years, although she is almost seventy years old, there is still no conclusion. Li Dan's position as the prince was also terrifying.

Especially in the DPRK, a large number of pro-Wu forces are secretly beating the side drum, hoping that it is the children of the Wu family who will inherit the throne in the future. Second, don't cool down the loyalty of these pro-military and anti-Tang ministers.

Therefore, after there was this atmosphere in the government and the opposition, Wu Sansi and Wu Chenghe, as Wu Zetian's nephews, had the highest call for the crown prince.

However, there is only one crown prince, and there are already too many people competing for it, how can they tolerate one more Wu Sanzhong?

As a result, Wu Sansi and Wu Chenghe, who were almost red-eyed, gave up their past suspicions and joined forces.

On the one hand, they persuaded Wu Zetian to dispel that thought, and on the other hand, they made all kinds of promises to Wu Sanzhong and asked him to go out on his own.

The pacification envoys were generally set up after the imperial court had just opened up its territory, and the army was in charge of the army and the people, in order to unify the decree and quell all kinds of rebellions.

Lingnan Road has belonged to Datang for many years, why is it necessary to set up a pacification envoy? In fact, this is to buy Wu Sanzhong - okay, you will be the emperor of the soil in Lingnan Dao, don't think about the real emperor.

Wu Zetian also knows this. Without her acquiescence, how could Wu Sanzhong, a son of the martial arts family who had already entered her sight, really be transferred to Lingnan Dao to be this pacification envoy?

With this tacit understanding, Wu Sanzhong is greedy and accepts some bribes, is that still a problem? That's why he had no fear.

……

……

But now this fearless confidence is gone in an instant.

Because, when he saw Cui Geng take out something from behind the secret door, he was instantly scared!

The object in Cui Geng's hand is a dress made of fine brocade, the whole body is black, and the pattern of twelve chapters is embroidered on it, including the sun, the moon, the stars, the dragon, the mountain, the Chinese insect, the fire, the Zongyi, the algae, the pink rice, the yellow, and the yellow.

What is this?

This is - the emperor's crown robe!

That is, the "dragon robe" sung in the folk drama!!

During the anniversaries of Li Tang and Wu, there was no dragon robe that was frequently seen on the screen in later generations, although the emperor could wear yellow clothes embroidered with dragons, and the prince could also do the same.

Even yellow itself, which did not belong to the exclusive color of the imperial family in the early Tang Dynasty, could be worn by officials above the sixth grade.

In fact, the most common attire of the emperor was a round-necked robe, similar to that of officials above the third rank.

The only thing that only the emperor can wear, and no one else is qualified to wear, is this crown robe.

The crown dress was the most solemn dress of the emperor, and it was only worn on very important occasions according to the regulations.

At the same time, because this thing is too bulky, the emperor doesn't like to wear it. So up to now, the emperor has only worn the crown robe under two circumstances: one is to ascend the throne, and the other is New Year's Day, which begins again and again, and is congratulated by hundreds of officials.

Wu Sanzhong's house was found in this thing, so do you still need to ask? He wants to rebel!

Well, a dragon robe is just an isolated evidence, and you can desperately deny that it was framed by someone. However, many over-the-top utensils were found from his home before, and this is also a frame-up?

In addition, he was already qualified to compete for the throne, so as soon as the emperor's crown dress came out, this case had almost become an irrefutable subway case!

Wu Sanzhong was so frightened that his legs were weak at this time, and he knelt on the ground with a "poof", begged bitterly, and said: "Hou Yushi, Cui Yushi, please listen to my explanation, I recognize the over-controlled utensils outside, but this crown dress is indeed not mine." ”

"Nonsense, of course this official knows it's not yours!"

Hou Sizhi saw the dragon robe and had a bottom in his heart, raised his leg and kicked Wu Sanzhong to the ground, and sneered: "You think it's yours, but apart from Your Majesty, who in the world is still qualified to have a crown robe?" ”

"No, that's not what Xia Guan meant, I mean...... This tiara must have been deliberately planted by someone! ”

"Planting?" Hou Sizhi chuckled lightly and said, "Such a big mezzanine was also planted by a thief?" The jewels, jade, silk and satin in this are also planted by thieves? Why didn't anyone frame the blame for the official? ”

"Because...... Because...... I get it! ”

Wu Sanzhong was squeezed by Liang Bo and was covered in cold sweat, sweating through his shirt, and suddenly a flash of inspiration appeared in his mind, and said: "The crown suit is Liang Bo's!" Zhang Zirui was also killed by him! ”

The reason why he pulled out Liang Bo, the number one henchman, was definitely not untargeted!

Because he and Liang Bo had set up a poisonous plan in order to completely kill Cui Geng and avenge his son Wu Liangju. This poisonous plan is to secretly prepare a crown suit, and after Cui Geng is dismissed, he will use this crown suit to frame Cui Geng, so that he will never be able to turn over, and once and for all!

As for why not before the dismissal? He thought about it, but how could it be so easy to send such a bulky piece of clothing to Cui Geng's house unconsciously? Maybe some clues will be revealed and burned.

Only Cui Geng dismissed the official, and he had no power to resist, so he could frame him as much as he wanted.

In order to ensure strictness, they made this dragon robe with fake hands, but let Liang Bo's wife personally embroider this shoddy crown robe.

Later, Cui Geng didn't know who he had helped, Liang Bo not only didn't let Cui Erlang dismiss the official, but he himself was severely humiliated by Cui Erlang, so Wu Sanzhong gradually left behind the matter of this crown dress.

I didn't expect that today, this dragon robe would appear in the mezzanine of my seventh lady's bedroom!

It's a typical case of lifting a stone to shoot yourself in the foot!

However, Wu Sanzhong couldn't figure it out, this dragon robe was obviously in Liang Bo's hands, how could it appear in his own mansion? And he was hidden in the mezzanine of the Seventh Lady's room that only he knew?

Could it be......

On the ground, after Wu Sanzhong pointed out Liang Bo, he turned around suddenly, and the eagle grabbed the seventh lady like a chicken, and scolded angrily with a distorted face: "You cheap ~ person, are you fornicating with Liang Bo behind my back?" This mezzanine is only known to you except me! ”

Sure enough, the Seventh Lady was a woman who had never seen the world, and was intimidated by Wu Sanzhong's mention, and immediately shouted in a panic: "Master spare your life, it is Liang Bo's slave who is seduced by this thief~." In the past year, the slave family has courted the master several times, but found that the master is no longer ......"

"Cheap~ people, you are looking for death!" Wu Sanzhong's old face turned red!

Cui Geng asked Feng Changqing to pull Wu Sanzhong aside, and said to Wu Sanzhong: "Wu An's envoy, the matter is very important, let's let the Seventh Lady continue!" Xiongfeng is no longer embarrassed, but the dragon robe is lost to his head! ”

Wu Sanzhong knew that Cui Geng was right, and no longer obstructed the Seventh Lady from speaking.

The seventh lady said: "Later, Liang Bo seduced the slave family several times~ lured the slave family, but the slave family did not hold it, and he went back and forth with him, so he hooked up... Hook up..."

"Hook up, huh, Lady Seven?" Cui Geng said, "But these are not the point, the point is who put the dragon robe?" ”

The Seventh Lady pointed to Liang Bo, who had already been controlled by the government soldiers, and said weakly: "It's Liang Bo!" Once, he chatted with the slave family and said that the master had secretly customized a crown dress, which was really unsafe to put in his place, and made him restless all day! The slave family thought about it, isn't there a secret room mezzanine in this house? told Liang Bo, and when Liang Bo heard it, he was overjoyed, so he hid the dragon robe here one day and night. ”

So that's it!

"Damn, you're making me dizzy!" Hou Sizhi exclaimed impatiently, "Who made this dragon robe?" ”

"It's him!"

"It's him!"

Liang Bo and Wu Sanzhong spoke in unison and pointed at each other.

Cui Geng shook his head and asked Mrs. Xiang, "You say!" ”

Boom!

The Seventh Lady suddenly knelt on the ground, looked at Cui Geng, and cried: "Master Yushi, the slave family doesn't know, the slave family only knows that Liang Bo secretly handed it over to me to hide, but Liang Bo told me that it was the master who explained that he secretly customized." Therefore, the slave family doesn't know who they are in charge of! ”

"I have something to say! Cui Yushi, Hou Yushi, there is something to say about humility! ”

Liang Bo suddenly raised his right arm and shouted: "Tell the two adults the ins and outs of this dragon robe, and you will be clear after speaking!" ”

Cui Geng and Hou Sizhi glanced at each other, nodded their heads, and motioned for him to say.

Where would Wu Sanzhong be willing to be lonely, and he was so anxious that he scolded: "Liang Bo, you damn dog minion, you can't ...... well"

"Shut up!" Cui and Hou shouted at Wu Sanzhong in unison.

Here, Liang Bo said a few words, and he had already quickly explained the reasons for the private dragon robe, as well as the poisonous plan that he and Wu Sanzhong had designed to frame Cui Geng and be dismissed, and then used the dragon robe to blame him.

Cui Geng looked at Wu Sanzhong, sneered, and said: "Wu An's envoy, fortunately, this official did not let Liang Bo frame and successfully dismiss the official, otherwise it seems that there should be no place to be buried by Cui someone, right?" ”

Wu Sanzhong shook his head and refused to admit it: "Fart, Liang Bo is trying to survive, can you believe his words?" ”

"Why can't you believe it? Think about it, the two imperial historians, the lowly but the small Guoyi Lieutenant of the Guangzhou Governor's Mansion, borrow my courage to splash the sky, and I don't dare to make a dragon robe privately! ”

Liang Bo fell to the ground and shouted: "The entire Lingnan Dao knows that I, Liang Bo, am a dog under the command of Wu An's envoy, and I will do whatever he tells me to do, this is a well-known thing." can come up with such a big idea as a dragon robe, if it weren't for the lack of Wu An's appeasement envoy, would this kind of thing be done by a humble function? Besides, I dare to admit that Zhang Zirui was killed by me, why don't I dare to admit that the dragon robe was made by me? ”

"What?" Cui Geng let out a loud sigh and asked, "You said, don't drive Zhang Zirui in Quanzhou, you killed it?" ”

Hou Sizhi was even more excited, and he was even more excited when he was found in the dragon robe, so he stepped forward and asked: "Do you really admit that Zhang Zirui was killed by you?" ”

Liang Bo said: "It was killed by despicable duty!" But the dragon robe is by no means made by a lowly position, and it has nothing to do with a lowly position, this is the pot of the Wu Anhui envoy, and the lowly position is not carried out!! ”

Hou Sizhi walked up to Cui Geng, rubbed his palms excitedly, and said in a low voice: "Cui Yushi, it's another case within a case, a murder case and a rebellion case!" This is not a place to try cases, why don't we move to the second hall of the pacification envoy and try this case together? ”

Cui Geng nodded and said, "The lower official seconded the proposal!" ”

Hou Sizhi waved his hand and said, "Come on, remove the criminals, physical evidence, and a number of human witnesses, and this imperial history will try this case with Master Cui!" ”

For a while, there was chaos in the inner house, and everyone was busy.

……

……

Pacify the yamen.

Two classes.

The second hall passes through a corridor, which is connected to Wu Sanzhong's outer house, and the outer house is his inner house again.

In order to save trouble, Hou Sizhi and Cui Geng tried the case nearby, and began to raise the case to the second hall of the pacification envoy Yamen.

Soon, Liang Bo was brought up again and confronted Wu Sanzhong in court.

Liang Bo knelt down in the hall and generously admitted: "Hou Yushi, Cui Yushi, the humble position is still what I said just now!" Secretly fornicated with the seventh lady of Wu An's pacification envoy, and admitted his humble duties! Zhang Zirui's case is also degraded! But privately making a crown uniform, this is a major crime of rebellion, and he does not admit it! Wu appeased the pot, he carried it himself! ”

Hou Sizhi said: "You are a bachelor, so good, it is a trivial matter to fornicate with Wu Sanzhong's concubine, let's not care about it." The matter of privately making a crown dress is not on your head for the time being! As long as you are willing to admit Zhang Zirui's case, it is enough! ”

Wu Sanzhong, who was forcibly escorted to kneel on the ground, was furious in his heart, Hou Sizhi, you bastard, what is it a trivial matter to fornicate my concubine, what is it called to privately make a crown dress, not counting his head for the time being? Do you want to count it on my head? At the beginning, it was Liang Bo's dog-legged idea for me!

However, he didn't dare to scold loudly, because Hou Sizhi is now an official, and he has become a prisoner of the suspect's ranks, as long as he dares to roar in court, Hou Sizhi will definitely take advantage of the opportunity to take great revenge on the tearing war he fought with him just now!

"Back to the Hou Yushi, I admit my humble position!" Liang Bo nodded very boldly and said: "The matter of the crown dress has nothing to do with me at all, but I absolutely admit Zhang Zirui's case!" ”

Hou Sizhi laughed again, looking very happy.

Cui Geng was suspicious, what happened to this Liang Bo? How could he so happily admit that Zhang Zirui was killed by him? Killing Zhang Zirui is also a capital crime, and rebellion is also a capital crime, why does he only admit one of them?

Cui Geng never believed that Liang Bo was a man who dared to take responsibility and was upright.

Isn't there something strange about him here, I didn't find out?

Just when he was suspicious, Liang Bo suddenly looked up at Cui Geng and said with a miserable smile: "Cui Yushi must be thinking, why did Xia Guan admit this case so quickly, right?" ”

Cui Geng sighed and was noncommittal.

Liang Bo glanced at Wu Sanzhong and said, "Because it's very simple, even if I don't say it now, you will find out in the future." Indeed, the first thing Zhang Zirui visited when he came to Guangzhou City that day was to appease Wu Sanzhong, but he was stopped and sent away by me at the door on the grounds that the appeasement envoy was not in the house. This matter was naturally known to the people of the Yamen to appease, so he also bribed him twice at that time, asking him not to report Zhang Zirui's request to see him to Wu Sanzhong! I'm afraid this person has already told Wu Sanzhong. ”

Wu Sanzhong next to him snorted: "Hmph, you are interesting, how can my family deceive me because of two pieces of money?" Blind your dog's eyes, and don't look at whose mansion this is, whose doorman it is! ”

"Okay, don't brag," Hou Sizhi interrupted, "One after another, the concubine Hongxing went out of the wall, and you also have the face to say that your door is strong?" ”

Wu Sanzhong: "I ......"

Speechless.

Cui Geng nodded and muttered: "This explains the reason why Wang Ruiyue went to find Wu Sanzhong, but he said that he hadn't seen Zhang Zirui." Indeed, Zhang Zirui did not see Wu Sanzhong because of Liang Bo's obstruction. But Wu Sanzhong, you obviously knew that Liang Bo stopped Zhang Zirui from seeing you, why didn't you tell Wang Ruiyue at that time? ”

Liang Bo sneered, looked at Wu Sanzhong with disdain, and said, "Do you still need to ask?" He wanted to secretly grasp this handle, especially after Wang Ruiyue even looked for her husband, he believed that Zhang Zirui's disappearance was related to his humble position. Therefore, as long as I don't admit the dragon robe case, he will tell the matter. Rather than this, it is better to admit it happily! ”

Hou Sizhi asked again: "Okay, now let's talk about Zhang Zirui's case, how did you kill him, and where do you bury his body now?" ”

"He was poisoned by me!"

Liang Bo said: "As for the corpse...... I do not know! ”

Bang!

Hou Sizhi slapped the stunned wood and said angrily: "Zhang Zirui was killed by you, but you don't know where the body is?" Joke! Do you have to be punished by this official before you are willing to confess? ”

"Your Excellency, I say!"

Liang Bo knocked his head and said with a sad face: "Later, Zhang Zirui... Cheated corpse! The corpse is gone, and I ran away~~"

Rumble!

Not only Hou Sizhi, but everyone in the entire court couldn't help but get goosebumps all over their bodies, and they panicked!

However, Cui Geng noticed something strange slightly.
