The palace of the king of Qi seems to have become a sea of swords and fires, and there are fewer and fewer officials who come to visit him, but there is one person who will inevitably come to the door every once in a while, but it is Lang Lang, the servant of the household department.

Lang Wuxu is the core figure of the Qi King Party, he was originally a member of the Han King Party, betrayed the Han King Party, defected to the Qi King Party, and the government and the opposition are also very clear about Lang Wuxu's positioning, the hardcore Qi King Party.

Lang Wuxu had no way out, even if it was in danger, he could only hug King Qi's thigh.

The night was gloomy, and in the deserted Qi Palace, Qi Wang Yingren's eyes were flashing at this time, and Lang Wuxu sat down, with a little excitement between his eyebrows.

"Are they reliable?" King Qi asked in a low voice.

Lang Wuxu looked confident, "Your Highness, please rest assured, this matter has always been carried out in secret, although some people have been secretly found, but these people are afraid of Qiu Junxi's cruelty and dare not come forward." But this Chen Guo and Qiu Junhui have a grudge against killing their father, he has always wanted to take revenge, but he has never had a chance, this time with the support of His Royal Highness, he is willing to stand up and report Qiu Junhui. ”

"The evidence in his hand can really bring down Qiu Junxi?" King Qi still asked cautiously.

Lang Wuxu leaned forward slightly, and said in a low voice: "Lang Wuxu is insidious and cunning, it is not easy to find evidence directly from him, but his son Qiu Fang is an arrogant and domineering person, not only arrogant, but also stupid. Chen Guo's father was originally the county magistrate of Qiuju County, Jinling Dao, and he was a fellow villager with Qiu Junxi. The Qiu family is a big family in Qiuju County, with many fields and wealth. Although Qiu Junhui is treacherous and sinister, he is very cautious in doing things, he knows that with Qiu Fang's temperament, sooner or later something will happen in the capital, and he has many enemies, so he let Qiu Fang return to his hometown in the early years, after all, he is not in the capital, even if something happens, it can be redeemed. ”

King Qi sneered: "Qiu Junhui has harmed countless people, so naturally you have to be careful when you sleep." ”

"Qiu Fang is in his hometown, he is naturally a local tyrant, he is the son of the Shangshu of the Criminal Department, but not many people dare to provoke him." Lang Wuxu said softly: "In fact, the Chen family used to be the snort of the Qiu family, and Chen Lan, the father of Chen Guo, was able to sit in the position of the county commander, which is said to be because of Qiu Junxi's relationship. ”

"That being the case, why do the two families have a deep hatred?"

"Everything is still the goods that Qiu Fang provoked. The Chen family is also a big family in Qiuju County, there is a manor, the geographical location is excellent, but unexpectedly Qiu Fang took a fancy to it, the Chen family naturally did not dare to fight against Qiu Fang, helpless, sold the manor to Qiu Fang at a low price, at that time the relationship between the two families was not bad, Qiu Fang saw that the Chen family was so interested, but he looked at the Chen family differently. Lang Wuxu said softly: "So when Chen Guo got married, it stands to reason that with Qiu Fang's status, the son of the little county order got married, he naturally didn't need to go, but maybe Qiu Fang felt that the Chen family gave up the manor and was very obedient to him, so that time he actually gave face and went to the wedding banquet." ”

"Is it happening at the wedding feast?" King Qi immediately asked.

"Exactly." Lang Wuxuan sighed: "Qiu Fang's arrival is considered to be a face-saving gift to the Chen family, and the Chen family is naturally careful to serve, in order to show their respect for Qiu Fang, they even invited the bride out, and the couple toasted Qiu Fang!" ”

King Qi faintly felt something, and the corners of his eyes twitched slightly.

"Qiu Fang was already drunk at that time, and when he saw the daughter-in-law of the Chen family, he took a fancy to it at a glance." Lang Wuxuan said: "Before the wedding banquet ended, Qiu Fang actually took the opportunity to break into the new house...... Your Highness, you can guess what is going on behind this, not to mention the humble duties. ”

"What a bold man." King Qi was furious, "There is such a treacherous thing happening...... But at this time, Jingzhong has never heard of it? ”

"Your Highness, I have sixteen Dao of Great Qin, countless counties and counties, where can every matter be transmitted to the capital, not to mention that this matter was dealt with at that time, and the Qiu family has strictly sealed the news." Lang Wuxuan said: "After the incident, the Chen family was naturally furious, and wanted to go to Beijing to sue Qiu Fang, Qiu Fang threatened the Chen family, once this matter became big, the Chen family would be ruined." Not only that, but he also gave the Chen family five hundred taels of silver and wrote a contract, which was actually to buy back Chen Guo's daughter-in-law who had just passed the door for five hundred taels of silver. ”

King Qi clenched his fists, his eyes blazing.

Qiu Fang snatched the daughter-in-law of the Chen family and took away the manor, the Chen family can swallow their anger, but they will rape the daughter-in-law who has just passed the door, and they will spend money to buy it, where can the Chen family bear this kind of humiliation. Chen Lan immediately packed up and set off to Beijing, to enter Beijing to sue the emperor, at that time Qiu Junhui had a lot of enemies in Beijing, if Chen Lan really arrived in the capital and made a fuss about this matter, Qiu Junhui's position as the secretary of the criminal department would definitely not be kept. ”

King Qi hurriedly asked, "Then what happened?" ”

"Chen Lan walked halfway and died suddenly." Lang Wuxuan said: "The corpse can only be sent back from the middle of the road, it is said that the corpse has no scars, and the cause of death is very bizarre, but Chen Guo firmly believes that it is Qiu Fang who is afraid of this incident, so he sent someone to poison him." ”

"When did this happen?"

"Three years ago."

"The daughter-in-law was robbed and the father was killed, why didn't Chen Guo move?"

Lang Wuxuan explained: "Chen Guo naturally wants to continue to sue, but Qiu Fang's power over there is too strong, Chen Guo can't get out of Qiuju County at all, and Qiu Fang has repeatedly threatened that if Chen Guo really wants to sue, he will definitely let the Chen family stay behind." Moreover, Qiu Fang bought off the clansmen of the Chen family, and the Chen family also kept persuading Chen Guo to let him rest quiet, the Qiu family was powerful, and the Chen family was not an opponent at all. And not only did Qiu Fang's people stare at Chen Guo, but even the Chen clan helped Qiu Fang keep an eye on Chen Guo and did not allow him to leave Qiuju County, Chen Guo also knew that he couldn't fight hard with the Qiu family, endured humiliation, and waited for the opportunity to take revenge. ”

"Then how did you find Chen Guo this time?"

Lang Wuxuan smiled and said: "From the very beginning, I knew that I wanted to bring down Qiu Junhui and find flaws in Qiu Junxi, although it is not impossible, but in a short period of time, it is too difficult, and we don't have much time, so we don't have much time to find evidence in Qiu Junxi." So he thought about it and decided to start with Qiu Fang, so he secretly sent someone to Qiuju County, and by chance, he heard about such an unjust case. ”

"Lord Lang is really wise." King Qi praised: "Although such a major event has not been spread out of Qiuju County, there must not be too few people who know the Tao in Qiuju County. ”

Lang Wu said with a false smile: "When I learned the news, I immediately made a decision and immediately sent someone to rescue Chen Guo, not only Chen Guo, but also the daughter-in-law of the Chen family, who was the direct party in the original case, was also rescued by the way...... ”

King Qi said happily: "Where are they now?" ”

"Your Highness, rest assured, the lowly officials have secretly brought them into the capital, and now they are hiding in a safe place, just waiting for His Highness's order, they can attack." Lang Wuxuan clenched his fists, and his eyes couldn't hide the excitement, "In addition to Chen Guo and his wife, the humble position also made people convince several clansmen of the Chen clan that they were also willing to testify in court. The most important thing is that after the daughter-in-law of the Chen family was bought back by Qiu Fang, she played with it for less than two months, and then she got tired of it and was neglected by the Qiu family, but this daughter-in-law of the Chen family is also a strong woman, and she has never forgotten the shame, she was wronged and secretly lived, just thinking about collecting evidence of the Qiu family's crimes by Qiu Fang's side, hoping that one day, she can get revenge! ”

King Qi was even more delighted: "Does she have other evidence in her hands?" ”

"Yes." Lang Wuxuan nodded and said: "According to what she said, she has a few letters from the Qiu family's father and son in her hand, and in this letter, it involves the matter of greedy ink, Qiu Junhui pretends to be honest, and he never accepts it in person, and the bribe is around Qiu Fang, so the Qiu family's bribery is on Qiu Fang." The letters were very clear that Qiu Fang had accepted bribes, and the number was very detailed. ”

"Good!" King Qi clapped his hands, "In the case of the Chen family, Qiu Junhui can't turn over, plus he is greedy for ink in private, as long as the evidence is conclusive, this king will definitely be able to kill Qiu Junxi." By the way, Lord Lang, those letters are very important, do you have them in your hands? ”

Lang Wuxuan said: "Your Highness, I have read the letter, but ...... They were not willing to hand over the letter now. They still seem to be suspicious of our intentions, which is an important evidence of their revenge, and they dare not easily hand it over to the lowly position. After a pause, he looked slightly embarrassed, "There is another point, although they gritted their teeth to take revenge, but ...... They still don't trust us, and they seem to be hesitant to leave when they leave. ”

"Hesitation?" King Qi was a little anxious, "What's there to hesitate about, the Qiu family hurts the heavens and harms reason, Chen Guo has the hatred of taking his wife and killing his father, this king now supports them to take revenge, what other concerns do they have?" ”

"Although the lowly officials told them that there were noble people who would help them win the lawsuit, they ...... For the sake of safety, the identity of His Highness was not revealed. Lang Wuxuan said softly: "They said that in the imperial court, officials protect each other, Qiu Junhui has stolen the book of the Criminal Department for more than ten years, and this torture is in Qiu Junxi's hands, they are not afraid of death, but they are afraid that the revenge will not be avenged, and they will not be blind to death, if they are not sure of victory, they will not easily sue Qiu Junhui." ”

King Qi said: "You tell them that you can go directly to the Ministry of Punishment the day after tomorrow, and this queen will go there in person the day after tomorrow, and she will make decisions for them when the time comes." ”

"If you want to win their trust, you can only show them the identity of Your Highness." Lang Wuxu said softly: "But the eyes and ears of the prince are only afraid that they are secretly staring at His Highness at the moment, if His Highness goes to see them and reveal their identity to them, he is afraid that the princelings will detect their existence, so the consequences will be unimaginable." ”

King Qi thought for a while, took off a piece of jade pendant from his waist, and commanded in a low voice: "This jade pendant, you take it to show them, this is a royal thing, since Chen Guo was a child of the official family in the past, he should know the royal thing." ”

Lang Wuxuan hesitated for a moment, then carefully put away the jade pendant, and then asked softly: "Your Highness is asking them to go to the Criminal Department the day after tomorrow?" ”

"The Heavenly Punishment Department wants to interrogate officials, and since this king is an auxiliary country, he is naturally qualified to go to the trial." King Qi said softly: "This king not only wants to go in person, but also invite the prince over to listen to the trial together, at noon, you ask Chen Guo and his wife and relevant witnesses to rush to the criminal department, beat the big drum outside the yamen of the criminal department, and then this king will know what to do." ”

"Let the prince hear the trial in court, and when the time comes, Chen Guo and his wife will sue Qiu Junxi, and the human and material evidence will be there, and Qiu Junhui will have nowhere to escape." Lang Wuxuan said excitedly: "Your Highness is wise, this time you will be able to defeat the enemy with one blow!" ”
