Wang Shichong has long known that with Yang Guang's personality, it is impossible to come back this time without killing two people to dissipate his anger, and Zhang Heng has always been a thorn in his side, a thorn in the flesh, just need an excuse, last time Wei Zheng began to collect, or weave Zhang Heng's criminal evidence before he went to Zhuojun, this time it was just used.

So Wang Shichong hurriedly put on a look of righteous indignation, and said in a deep voice: "Weichen is about to report this matter to His Majesty, after His Majesty asked Weichen to investigate Zhang Heng's words and deeds last time, Weichen has been sending people to lurk in Zhang's mansion and secretly observe, in the past half a year, Zhang Heng has been presumptuous in his words and deeds after His Majesty's expedition to Liao, and often said to one of his favorite concubines, saying that His Majesty's expedition to Liao will be fruitless, and in the end he has to rely on him, an old minister, to come out and clean up the mess. ”

"And the last time Zhang Heng was building the Jiangdu Palace, he took the opportunity to do things for His Majesty, and wantonly embezzled money for the ink project, which has also been thoroughly verified, and the money for embezzlement was as high as 130 million yuan, and he used this money to build three manor villas for himself in Bingzhou, which were magnificent, and approached His Majesty's palace. And ......"

Speaking of this, Wang Shichong lowered his voice and whispered: "Zhang Heng often puts his old qualifications in front of those building materials merchants, and even twice drinks nonsense, saying that His Majesty can ascend to the throne, it is all his credit, and even, even mentioned the things of Renshou Palace back then, what to say......"

Yang Guang's face turned red with anger, and he directly interrupted Wang Shichong's words, and said sharply: "Bold Zhang Heng, I remember that he has the merit of being a dragon, not only gave him a heavy responsibility, but also exempted him from the crime of arguing about the government several times, and asked him to supervise the Jiangdu Palace of my life, but he lived up to my favor, greedy for money, and relied on the old to sell the old." If all the courtiers are as tyrannical and greedy as he is, then how can I govern the world? Wang Aiqing, you are the secretary of the criminal department and are proficient in criminal law, how to deal with this situation? I'm talking about dealing with it according to the law of the land! ”

Wang Shichong said solemnly: "According to the law." Zhang Heng has repeatedly failed to bear the grace of the saints, and the amount of money he is greedy for ink is particularly huge, and he even fabricates facts and ignores the serious crimes of the king, so he should be dealt with severely, beheaded for public display, and razed his three clans! ”

The corners of Yang Guang's mouth hooked, and he asked, "Is the evidence of your guilt here true and correct?" ”

Wang Shichong hurriedly took out a fold from his sleeve. handed it over: "Those building materials merchants, as well as Zhang Heng's concubine Taohong, have already confessed to these facts and drawn a charge, if you want to go through the legal process, you have to take Zhang Heng down and let him confess in person." ”

Yang Guang took the fold and read it carefully twice. After pondering for a moment, he said, "Zhang Heng." There is no need to have more trials, some of the things that happened to my ascension to the throne back then were not for outsiders, and if they were tried publicly, I was afraid that this guy would talk nonsense and ruin my reputation. His greed for ink project funds, as well as the crime of arguing about the government is obvious, no need to ask, just deal with it according to the law of the country, read that he is an old minister of the two dynasties. For the sake of great merit, only one of them was killed, and his family was exiled to the hometown of Tuyuhun. ”

Wang Shichong said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty Shengming." ”

Yang Guang nodded and added: "Wang Aiqing, you have worked hard to go to Zhang Heng's mansion in Luoyang, the eastern capital, to take it down, and you will also be responsible for the matter of supervising the beheading." Remember, don't let him talk nonsense anymore. ”

Wang Shichong nodded: "The ministers will do their best to share the worries of Your Majesty." ”

Yang Guang sat back in the dragon chair and continued: "This second thing is that I received a secret report, saying that it was Yang Khan, the king of Qi, who was under house arrest in the eastern capital of Luoyang last time because of his collusion with traitors and misdeeds. ”

The corners of Wang Shichong's mouth hooked, and he said with a smile: "Weichen has not obtained the permission to spy on His Royal Highness King Qi, so he doesn't dare to speak up. ”

Yang Guang said coldly: "Okay, Wang Aiqing, who you spy on, who you pay attention to, has never been with my permission, I now want you to tell me the truth." ”

Wang Shichong gritted his teeth: "This matter is Your Majesty's family matter, Weichen really doesn't dare to say much, Weichen can only say that His Royal Highness King Qi is probably depressed after being placed under house arrest, and there is no control between His Majesty and the queen's mother, so it is inevitable that he will be a little presumptuous, and he will re-associate with some fox friends and dog parties, and the sons of the family, but if you want to say that he is plotting wrong, I am afraid that there is no." ”

Yang Guang breathed a long sigh of relief, but still with some doubts, and said: "Is it really just eating, drinking, and having fun, and there are no bad words and deeds?" ”

Wang Shichong nodded: "Because after he left the house, he drank and feasted with people, ran horses, and shot hunting, most of which were carried out in the entertainment venues opened by Weichen, so Weichen also knew very well that the children of the family who interacted with him were not the kind of people who were ambitious and wanted to make a difference, but people who were lustful." ”

Yang Guang's brows finally stretched, and he pretended to be angry: "This kid, I really don't want to worry, it's impossible for me not to be busy with national affairs, just stare at him alone, Wang Aiqing, what do you think should be done with Yang Cambodia?" ”

Wang Shichong hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Ouch, Your Majesty, this is your family matter, Weichen will never dare to talk about your family affairs, this is a taboo for the courtiers, please ...... Your Majesty"

Yang Guang waved his hand impatiently: "Okay, okay, my family affairs are state affairs." If I can't even heal my own home, how can I govern the country? I intend to exile Yang Cambodia to the border and keep him under strict supervision, what does Aiqing want? ”

Wang Shichong sneered in his heart, if this Yang Guang had already made up his mind, why did he ask himself? But his face was still humble, and he said: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Qi is young and frivolous, but there is no big mistake, but after leaving the control of His Majesty and the Queen Mother, he is a little presumptuous, and the disposal of exile in the border land is too heavy, I am afraid that some people with ulterior motives will also take advantage of this to make a big fuss, saying that Your Majesty can't tolerate his son." ”

Yang Guang's brows furrowed: "What about Aiqing's opinion?" ”

Wang Shichong had already prepared, these rumors of Yang Khan doing evil were released to Yang Guang through various channels, the purpose was to leave Xiao Meiniang in the Eastern Capital, and further separate the relationship between Yang Guang's father and son, he pretended to be silent for a while, and said: "Weichen is foolish, if His Majesty and the Queen are not in the Eastern Capital, His Royal Highness the King of Qi has no one to restrain him, I am afraid that there will be an incident, His Majesty needs to fight Goguryeo, but the Queen Mother has no need for this for the time being, stay in the Eastern Capital, deal with the internal affairs of the palace, no one is more suitable than her, With the queen mother here, presumably His Royal Highness King Qi would not dare to make a mistake.
