Concubine Li De hurried to Xingqing Palace with her people.
As a result, at the gate of Xingqing Palace, she ran into Concubine Xiao Shu who also rushed over.
"Sister Concubine Shu, why are you here?"
Concubine Li De smiled like a flower. No matter when, as long as she is in front of people, she must present the most perfect side, and she must not let people see her embarrassed side.
Concubine Xiao Shu said expressionlessly: "You can come, can't I come?"
Concubine Li De covered her lips and smiled, "Sister Concubine Shu really knows how to joke. Sister, please go first."
Concubine Xiao Shu was not polite to her, and walked into Xingqing Palace first.
Concubine Li De's complexion collapsed, and cruelty flashed in her eyes. In a blink of an eye, everything returned to normal. What kind of ruthlessness is like an illusion.
In the main hall, Princess Huyang is accusing the Li family of deceiving people too much.
Li Dalang yelled ouch, looking as if he had been beaten internally.
When Concubine Li De walked into the hall, Li Dalang burst into tears.
"Your Majesty, you have to take the place of the next official. The next official will be beaten to death."
Concubine Li De gouged him out, pretending to be smart, giving others a handle, idiot! To make Bengong wipe your ass for you is even more stupid.
Li Dalang's crying became quieter, but he was still worried about Li Defei's younger sister.
Princess Huyang has a big trough in her heart, I didn't even cry, Li Dalang, you old man actually has the face to cry.
Stinky and shameless dog, do you really think I am easy to bully
Princess Huyang didn't say a word, just took out the handkerchief, wiped ginger juice on the handkerchief, wiped it on the eyes, and tears burst out like a faucet in an instant.
"Father, mother and concubine, you have to make decisions for your daughter. The Yuhua Lane was bought by my daughter from the Li family, and it is registered with the government.
The daughter spent a lot of money to renovate Yuhua Lane, but the bastard of the Li family, seeing the money in Yuhua Lane, became jealous and sent someone to set fire to it in the middle of the night.
If it wasn't for my daughter's preparations, the entire Yuhua Lane would have been burned to ashes. Moreover, the wind blew last night, once the fire in Yuhua Lane started, half of the capital city would be engulfed by the fire. Li Dalang is so insane, he treats human life like nothing, and only for his own self-interest, he deserves to die! "
Princess Huyang wiped her eyes, tears rolled down her eyes, very sad.
The emperor frowned and stared at Princess Huyang. His daughter knew that Princess Huyang was a typical ignorant person. Going to school when I was young was always the one that caused my wife the most headaches.
When did Hu Yang speak so clearly, and hit Li Dalang on the seven inches as soon as he opened his mouth.
This is an expert pointing out.
The emperor snorted, Huyang bastard, dare to play tricks on me.
With Huyang's pissing nature, he didn't mention money or loss when he opened his mouth, so there is something wrong with this matter.
Gu Jiu calculated everything, except that he ignored the parents' understanding of their children.
She thought that the emperor hated the princes and daughters, and had never really understood the grown-up princes and daughters. But he didn't know that the emperor knew the temper of the adult prince and princess clearly.
However, a small problem does not affect the overall situation.
Concubine Xiao Shu said to the Son of Heaven: "Your Majesty, this matter is really appalling, and my concubine thinks that this matter should be investigated strictly. If someone really set fire to the capital, he must be severely punished."
Setting fire to Yuhua Lane turned into setting fire to the capital in a blink of an eye, which is a serious crime.
Li Dalang was in a hurry, and hurriedly shouted for injustice, "I am wronged! I never sent someone to burn Yuhua Lane, let alone the capital city. Please check clearly."
Concubine Li De rubbed the corner of her eyes, "Your Majesty, it's all the fault of the concubine. The concubine was negligent in controlling her family and even ran against Princess Huyang. Damn it. It's just that the elder brother of the concubine has shortcomings of one kind or another, but the concubine I believe that he will never do such a frenzied thing. Please His Majesty investigate this matter strictly, and restore the concubine and elder brother, and restore the Li family's innocence."
Nonsence!
The master of Huyang County was angry, and he rolled up his sleeves and was about to do a big job. At the critical moment, she remembered Gu Jiu's advice, and quickly changed the gesture of pulling her sleeves to wiping her tears.
She wept bitterly, "Father, mother, concubine, although my daughter is not good enough and always gets into trouble, she never tells a lie and always tells one thing.
When Li Dalang sold Yuhua Lane, he didn't think the money was short, and he was even glad that he got rid of the burden in his hands.
Now that his daughter has invested a lot of money in the renovation of Yuhua Lane, he sees that there is money to be made, so he wants to destroy his daughter's livelihood and force her to give up Yuhua Lane.
Dare to feel that whenever there is a profitable business inside and outside the capital, the Li family will grab it.
My daughter can't imagine how many families have been ruined by the Li family using all kinds of appalling means to steal their business over the years.
This time, fortunately, my daughter is the princess and the emperor, and she can resist one or two. Those whose identities are not as good as their daughters, do they have half the strength to resist in front of the Li family? "
"My lady, the princess, I have no grievances with you in the past, and I have no hatred in the present. Why did you frame me? And the person who bought Yuhua Lane is clearly a Northwest businessman, not you, the princess?"
Li Dalang cried out, heartbroken.
Princess Huyang glared, "It's not convenient for me to come forward. Is there a problem with sending a Northwest businessman to negotiate with you? Li Dalang, business is business, and you can't go back on your word after signing the painting. It turns out that you are fine. Bad intentions, trying to seize Bengong's property. Bengong is not those ordinary people who are powerless to resist. If you dare to steal Bengong's business, don't blame Bengong for cutting off your hand."
"The lower official was wronged. The princess kept accusing the lower official of stealing your business. Is there any evidence? Just because you are the princess, you can slander people with empty words."
Li Dalang had a wronged expression on his face.
Concubine Li De nodded repeatedly, wiped her tears and said: "Your Majesty, this concubine believes that my elder brother is a decent person, and he will never do such lowly things as grabbing people's business."
The owner of Huyang County burst into tears, "Ms. De Concubine, do you mean that I am wronging a good person? Well, if you all refuse to believe what I said, I will hand over the evidence. Don't forget , All those who set the fire were caught, and they were handed over to the Prisoner of the Shaofu last night. Father, you announced that the Prisoner of the Shaofu has an audience, whether it is true or not, the Prisoner of the Shaofu should have interrogated it clearly."
Li Dalang was startled.
He thought that Mrs. Zhao would use lynching if Guanshi Li was caught.
As long as it is a lynching, he can be said to be tortured into a trick, planted and framed, so as to get away.
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Zhao had such a vicious mind that she handed over the man to the Prisoner of the Shaofu. What to do now.
His eyes flustered, and he secretly looked at Concubine Li De.
Concubine Li De was expressionless and did not give him any response.
Concubine Xiao Shu said aloud: "Your Majesty, since Huyang said that there are physical evidences, it is better for the Prisoner of Xuanshao Mansion to have an audience."
The emperor asked with a straight face, "Where is the Prisoner of the Shaofu?"
Chen Dachang bowed and said: "Your Majesty, the Prisoner of the Shaofu and the Family Order of the Shaofu asked for an audience together, and they all said that there was something important to report."
"Xuan, the two of you will meet."
"promise!"
The Prisoner of the Shaofu came to the main hall with the order of the Shaofu's family.
The Prisoner of the Shaofu took the lead in saying: "Your Majesty, the Shaofu captured a group of Xiao Xiaoxiao last night with the intention of setting fire to the capital. After interrogation, these Xiaoxiao Xiaoxiao have all confessed. Because other people are involved, the matter is of great importance, and I dare not Arbitrary, please Your Majesty to rule."
After speaking, he presented the case file.
The case file is placed in front of the emperor.
The emperor flipped through the file with a gloomy expression.
Li Dalang trembled all over, and Li Guanshi must have confessed.
How many people who have entered Shaofu Prison can not be recruited
Even the execution officer of the Jinwu Guard had to ask the Prisoner of the Shaofu to learn from them how to interrogate prisoners quickly and effectively. It is conceivable that the Prisoner of Shaofu is not well-known, but it is a place more terrifying than Jinwuwei.
The Jinwu Guard supervised all officials, and the Shaofu only took care of the royal family and relatives.
The Li family is a foreign relative, so if the Li family fell into the hands of the Shaofu, how could it be better
Li Dalang trembled tremblingly, cold sweat was already breaking out on his forehead.
He secretly looked at Concubine Li De, and Concubine Li De quickly glanced at him, telling him not to move rashly.
Li Dalang calmed down. He kept comforting himself that as long as the Concubine De was around, he couldn't die.
When he passes this test, he will be a hero again tomorrow.
Next time, he will never be so reckless, he will definitely make Gu Jiu's life worse than death, and regret provoking him.
If he dared to set up a trick against him, and even dared to plot against him behind his back, the feud was settled.
After flipping through the file, the emperor asked the Shaofu's order in a deep voice, "What else do you need to report?"
"Your Majesty, since the establishment of the lending department in the Shaofu, everything has gone smoothly. In just two or three months, millions of taels of silver have been loaned out. However, some problems have also occurred during the period. Several sufferers came to the Shaofu one after another. Because it is related to private usury loans, Weichen accepted these cases.
It turned out that these cases were really appalling, involving three banks, each of which was guilty of many crimes. This matter is so important that I cannot make a decision, so I can only leave it to His Majesty. "
After finishing speaking, the Shaofu family ordered the case file to be handed over.
Unavoidably being suspected, Gu Jiu asked Qian Fu to collect charges from other banks. The Li family's money bank is sandwiched among them, so it is not so conspicuous.
She handed over all the witnesses and material evidence to the Shaofu family order.
The Shaofu Jialing has been waiting for an opportunity, but he did not expect that the Li family would take the initiative to provoke Gu Jiu and give him the opportunity.
Shaofu's family order made a decisive decision, took the opportunity to add insult to injury, and beat the dog in the water.
Submit all materials and wait for the emperor's ruling.
In normal times, the Li family's bank would not be so conspicuous.
But today, everything that has something to do with the Li family will be magnified several times, and it is so conspicuous that it is impossible to ignore it.
In several case files, the emperor saw Li's bank at a glance.
He directly turned it out and read it in silence.
I don't know when the hall quieted down, and the air became more and more quiet, as if it had stagnated.
Even the master of Huyang County became nervous, for fear of accidents.
Gu Jiu assured her that everything has been arranged. She just needs to catch Li Dalang and file a complaint, and other things will be done by other people.
Seeing the family order of the Shaofu and the prison chief of the Shaofu, Princess Huyang's heart sank, and she knew that Gu Jiu's work was still very reliable.
But this time, inexplicably, she became nervous again. For fear of accidents, the emperor did not punish Li's family, but punished her severely.
While she was looking forward to the result, she was nervous that the result was not as expected.
Sweat dripped down. Even if an ice basin is placed in the main hall, it is difficult to relieve the heat.
The emperor stood up from the dragon chair, and everyone was suffocated.
The emperor walked down the steps and walked step by step towards Princess Huyang.
Princess Huyang's heart was raised in her throat, her father wouldn't want to beat her, right
Just when she was very nervous, the emperor kicked Li Dalang's body, his murderous intentions were undisguised, "Things that are not as good as pigs and dogs, relying on my beauty, do anything wrong. You deserve to die!"
Li Dalang peed in fright.
Princess Huyang came back to life, and her heart started beating again.
Concubine Xiao Shu immediately let out a sigh of relief, she was really scared to death just now.
Concubine Li De was flustered, she didn't care about face, she just knelt down, "Your Majesty, everything is the concubine's fault. It is the concubine's lax discipline that caused a big mistake by the natal family. Please punish the concubine severely, Your Majesty."
She didn't know what was written in the case file, but she knew that the only thing to do at this time was to plead guilty, sincere pleading guilty.
Immediately afterwards, she pointed at Li Dalang and yelled bitterly, "I remind you three times and four times, you must be loyal to your duties, think of your majesty and the court in everything, and don't commit crimes. What about you, you What did you do again? You have failed my palace, and even more so, your majesty's cultivation. You are so disappointing. You should die!"
"Damn the humble minister, damn the humble minister!"
Concubine Li De's accusation was like a signal, and Li Dalang woke up instantly.
He kowtowed frequently, slapped himself on the face one after another, regretted his mistake, and said repeatedly: "This humble minister deserves to die, my humble minister deserves to die. My humble minister is not as good as pigs and dogs, and my humble minister deserves to die. But this humble minister has always treated His Majesty and Your Majesty Loyal and loyal, never have two hearts. If you have two hearts, you will definitely be struck by lightning."
The Son of Heaven sneered, and swiped his whip directly at Li Dalang, "Never mind people's lives, compete with the people for profit, force the good into prostitution, and force the good people into bandits. My world is plagued by moths like you. Ten thousand times is not enough for you to die." To repay. Your so-called loyalty is to empty out my country, and I will kill you today."
The Son of Heaven threw down his whip, drew the saber from the waist of the big Han general, and slashed at Li Dalang.
"Your Majesty!" Concubine Li De exclaimed, "Your Majesty, please forgive me! He is my concubine's elder brother and the little prince's uncle!"
Concubine Li De didn't care about her face or image anymore, she wept bitterly, knelt down before the emperor, and begged bitterly.
The emperor's saber had already landed, only one centimeter away, and it landed on Li Dalang's head.
In the end, the knife fell on Li Dalang's shoulder.
In summer, wearing thin summer clothes. The sharp knife was cut down, and blood was seen directly.
Blood soaked his clothes, and half of Li Dalang's body was already stained red with blood.
Blood ran down his shoulders and arms, dripping onto the ground. Converged into a shocking pool of blood on the floor.
Li Dalang gasped in pain, his heart stopped beating the moment the sword fell.
It wasn't until Concubine Li De pleaded for him and stopped the knife in the emperor's hand that his heartbeat recovered.
Li Dalang didn't dare to cry out in pain, and didn't even dare to make the slightest sound. He wished there was a crack in the ground so that he could escape for his life.
Concubine Li De grabbed the hem of the emperor's clothes and begged bitterly. Those who see it feel sad, and those who hear it feel distressed.
The emperor looked at her.
Concubine Li De's eyes were full of tears, and the tears had already taken away her makeup, making her more and more pitiful.
The emperor looked at Li Dalang again.
This glance made Concubine Li De's heart tighten.
"Your Majesty, it's the concubine's fault. The concubine didn't control her natal family well, so you should punish the concubine."
"My concubine, get up. Why do you have to plead for this thing that is not as good as a pig or a dog?"
"But he is my concubine's elder brother after all."
"He is your elder brother, but don't forget about the little prince."
The Son of Heaven resounded loudly.
Concubine Li De was stunned for a moment, she opened her mouth, looking sad and desperate.
"What your majesty said is that the concubine is the mother of the little prince. Please, for the sake of the concubine and the little prince, please spare him."
After finishing speaking, Concubine Li De turned her head, unable to bear to look any further.
The Son of Heaven was very decisive, "Drag this thing that is not as good as a pig or a dog out, strip off his official uniform, and punish him with a staff of 20 boards. If he doesn't die, it will be his life."
The implication is that as long as Li Dalang endures the court stick, the past will be forgotten. Of course, the official position is gone.
Whether it is the matter of Huyang County Lord's complaint or the matter of the bank, it is all over.
The Shaofu dealt with two cases, those who should be arrested and those who should be killed, but Li Dalang could not be involved.
Li Dalang can be regarded as completely escaped from birth, completely removed from the case.
If Li Dalang died, he deserved it.
At the order of the Son of Heaven, several big Han generals came in from outside, dragged the injured Li Dalang out, and executed the execution directly outside the hall.
Li Dalang was injured and lost a lot of blood. If the executioner Xiao Huangmen refused to release the water, Li Dalang would be dead.
Concubine Li De was anxious to get angry.
Her confidant servant quietly exited the hall, stood in a corner of the courtyard, and gestured a number to the prison servant.
The jailer's servant nodded slightly, and his footsteps changed from inner horoscope to outer horoscope.
When Xiao Huangmen, who enforced the imperial staff, saw the horoscope, he knew in his heart that it was going to release water.
Concubine Li De was willing to buy them water for five thousand taels, and they didn't mind giving Concubine Li De a face.
