War Prisoner

Chapter 17: The minister was wronged

Views:

Yin Wenzheng made an appearance of being extremely concerned about Jiang Tangzhou, which caught the eye of the person beside Emperor Ling Yu.

In fact, in such a public occasion, Lu Yanfeng is extremely open-mouthed—although everyone knows that his weight is not inferior to those of Emperor Ling Yu's sons, and even all the sons combined may not be as good as one of his fingers. If he is not in front of the imperial court, he doesn't even need to be a minister.

When Lu Yanfeng appeared beside Emperor Ling Yu ten years ago, no one thought that he would become a sharp blade to check and balance the court, and no one thought that an eunuch could cause much trouble.

Yin Wenzheng met his eyes, his lips were slightly pursed, unable to express any expression.

He has always had no grievances or enmities with this person, even if they met in the palace, they would only slightly bow their heads in greeting.

So Yin Wenzheng did not expect that the other party would suddenly say: "The prince and the princess have only been married for a few days, and they can be so affectionate as a husband and wife, which is really enviable."

Emperor Ling Yu frowned calmly.

Yin Wenzheng scolded him secretly in his heart—isn't it clear that he deliberately used Jiangtangzhou to make things worse

Ling and Jin also seem to have suddenly seized the opportunity, and then said: "Indeed, before getting married, it seems that the emperor's brother didn't have any contact with King Zhen, but soon after getting married..."

These words were so short that Yin Wenzheng wanted to slap Ling and Jin directly.

He didn't want to pay attention to it, but after hearing Ling and Jin's words, he had no choice but to say: "Since the husband and wife are already birds of the same forest, they should support each other and respect each other like guests. If Brother Wu Huang is curious and wants to try this, it's a good idea." You can ask your father, if you can bestow a marriage, it will be a great blessing."

Ling and Jin hadn't played enough among the flowers, they were not willing to get married, and they were busy waving their hands to talk, but someone from the other side opened the curtain, and dragged a man who shouted "injustice" out.

"Your Majesty, the subjects were ordered to find the assassin's body, but unexpectedly we found him sneaking around the body. After some inquiries, we found out that one of the corpses was actually his own brother, so we took this person with him. Bring them together."

"The grass people are wronged—the grass people are wronged—" The man was so weak that he collapsed on the ground. He could only repeat the words "wronged", and his whole body was already shaking like chaff.

Guessing that he got the order from Emperor Ling Yu, Lu Yanfeng stood up: "Who is in the audience?"

The man wanted to spare his own life, so after hearing this, he quickly knelt up with all his strength, knocked his head on the ground several times, and said eagerly while kowtow: "The grass people are the animals in this hunting ground. Horse people, I just went to look for the lost horses nearby, the grass people have no second thoughts, I beg all the adults to make decisions for the grass people..."

"Horse breeder..." Yin Wenzheng sneered, his indifferent eyes swept over him, "No wonder Gu thought it was strange for the horse to run suddenly at that time. It turned out that he still has such a skill. If Gu was not killed by those assassins, What's wrong, is there still a back trick like Ma waiting to bring Gu down the cliff?"

"The ministers did find that the horse used by the crown prince had taken the drug of destabilization, and they did search and found the poison under the horse breeder's couch." The imperial guard stood in front of the hall with his hands clasped together, staring straight at the platform. Shanglu along the wind.

Lu Yanfeng took the medicine powder handed over by the Imperial Forest Army, and the powder swayed down from his fingertips. After a moment of silence in the tent, he heard the eunuch with power say: "Now that the evidence is convincing, let's Pull it down and cut it off."

Yin Wenzheng didn't speak, because he knew that in today's play, he couldn't wait for himself to speak.

Sure enough, when the horse breeder heard the word "cut", he was extremely flustered, raised his head and yelled loudly: "The grass people are wronged, the grass people are wronged, the grass people don't know what harms horses—"

There is no one in the tent who is willing to devote his thoughts to his worthless life. Someone in the Royal Forest Army has put a knife around his neck and is about to drag him out, but at the moment when he is about to leave the tent, he does not know where to come from. With the strength coming, he suddenly broke free from the shackles of the Imperial Forest Army, and rushed in front of Ling and Jin—

"I beg the fifth prince to save the grass people's life, the fifth prince to help—"

Emperor Ling Yu stopped drinking tea suddenly, closed the open scroll in his hand again, and looked over.

How did Ling and Jin think that the horse breeder would do such a thing suddenly, his face sank instantly, he kicked the horse breeder away, and reprimanded: "What nonsense are you talking about! This king doesn't even know you! "

"How could the fifth prince turn his face and deny anyone? If you hadn't said that you would give the grass people prosperity and wealth for the rest of their lives, how could the grass people drug the crown prince's horse!"

"Okay you—"

Hearing a loud "bang", the silent Emperor Ling Yu suddenly dropped the teacup in his hand, stood up abruptly, panted and pointed at Ling and Jin and said, "What can you say to refute?"

"Father, my son was wronged!" Although Ling and Jin were idiots, living in the emperor's house, they were not completely brainless.

When he bought the horse breeder at that time, he did say that he would give him the glory and wealth for the rest of his life, and he threatened the other party's family, so he never expected that the horse breeder would not even care about his family and To pull him out, if there are no other twists and turns, how is it possible

Ling and Jin have already knocked this account on Yin Wenzheng's head—after all, if it wasn't for the Yuhuayuan incident, he had resentment towards Yin Wenzheng and Jiang Tangzhou, and even if his bedside person provoked him, he wouldn't be able to think about it. Fever to do this kind of buying murder.

Ling and Jin suppressed the anger in their hearts, calmed themselves down, and said, "Father, there may be other misunderstandings..."

"Fifth prince, I beg the fifth prince to protect the lives of Caomin and the lives of Caomin's family—" the noisy voice of the horse breeder rang in his ears again.

Ling and Jin, who have always been arrogant and domineering, can't listen to people's lives. He knew that the horse breeder was useless to him, and what was left was evidence, so he showed no mercy, and slapped the horseman with his backhand. At the back of the horse breeder's neck, the other party's voice for help stopped abruptly—

There was silence in the tent.

Ling and Jin's faces remained unchanged, and they said firmly, "Father, this horse breeder is gnawing and biting recklessly, so he can't be kept."

Yin Wenzheng raised his eyebrows slightly, but calmly curled the corners of his mouth, revealing a sneer.

Killing people in front of the palace—it seems that Ling and Jin have not only been used to being arrogant and indulgent by this supreme honor all these years, but also used to be ignorant.

It was his imperial concubine who was favored by the six palaces, and the elder brother of the fourth prince who was powerful in protecting the country at the border, that made him so stupid.

Sure enough, Emperor Ling Yu's eyes changed a few times, staring at Ling and Jin, without saying a word for a long while.

I don't know how long it took before Lu Yanfeng opened his mouth and said: "I heard that His Royal Highness Fifth Prince also brought a beauty here this time?"

Ling and Jin looked at Lu Yanfeng: "Yes, what advice does Master Lu have?"

Yin Wenzheng knew that since Lu Yanfeng had opened his mouth, he just had to watch the next good show from the sidelines, and he would slap the fire from time to time.

After all, the faction of the Fourth Prince—no matter who it is, is a thorn in the flesh.

Although Ling and Jin are just useless, his four emperor brothers are not easy to get along with.

The imperial concubine Zhou of the current dynasty, married to Emperor Lingyu for more than twenty years, has always been honored and favored, and she still has the same temperament as Ling and Jin. Over the years, she has been domineering and temperamental, and has never let Emperor Lingyu despise her slightest. She also gave birth to two sons, one is the fourth prince and the other is the fifth prince. Needless to say, the fifth prince is useless, but the fourth prince is the most powerful candidate for the throne.

The fourth prince Ling Yingchong took Emperor Ling Yu's order to go to the border at the age of fifteen. At first he was just a lieutenant general, but later he won the title of Invincible General. He was the one who fought back alone.

At that time, Hengguo and Qinguo were equal in national strength, but because of Hengguo's General Junxing died of illness, they were directly defeated for thousands of miles. Qinguo was about to unify the world, and it was Ling Yingchong who carried the guards with his own strength. The big flag at the Hengguo border made the big flag wave again, and even not long ago, Qinguo was defeated, and Zhenwang Jiangtangzhou was sent as a hostage.

If Emperor Ling Yu went west in a few days, with the current situation in the court, no matter who became the emperor, the four princes would have enough strength to start an uprising from the border and directly overthrow the Daheng Dynasty.

He is the best candidate to be the emperor, so no matter who it is, they will regard him as a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh.

"Since it's the beauty brought by the fifth prince, why not call her over and see what she has to say." Lu Yanfeng said indifferently.

Ling and Jin frowned: "She's just a prostitute who doesn't understand anything, how can she..."

Lu Yanfeng waved his hand, interrupting Ling and Jin's next words.

Yin Wenzheng let out a low laugh, raised his head, and met Ling Xunqin's gaze.

From the beginning to the end, the opponent didn't seem to have spoken much, and he was even more spectator than he, the spectator.

Yin Wenzheng raised his eyebrows, the other party raised his teacup, saluted him, and drank it all in one gulp, regardless of whether Yin Wenzheng drank it or not.

After a while, the beauty brought by Ling and Jin arrived.

It's a pity that this beauty is a bit timid, and as soon as she came, she rushed to Ling and Jin and knelt down to ask for shelter, and she returned here without three hundred taels of silver and shouted: "Ministers don't know anything, please Your Majesty!" Forgive me, Minnv was wronged..."

"Wronged?" Lu Yanfeng laughed lowly, looked at the woman calmly, and asked, "We haven't said anything, and you called out wronged, do you know that we are here Discuss what?"

The woman's eyes drifted over the dead horse breeder on the ground, and she buried her head in Ling Yujin's arms: "I beg the fifth prince to save the life of Minnv, Minnv... Minnv didn't do anything..."

Ling and Jin's complexion has become ugly.

Lu Yanfeng's face changed suddenly, and the voice of questioning had already landed solidly: "The fifth prince bought a horse breeder to drug the prince's horse, and bought a murderer to kill him, is there such a thing?!"

The woman let out a scream, knocked her head on the ground, and shouted loudly: "The min girl doesn't know anything, the min girl just discussed this matter with the fifth prince between the beds, she doesn't know anything else!"
