Chapter 274
In the early morning of the next day, the prince went out to play:
"Father, the people who went to Yaocheng have returned, and they have also brought back the children who witnessed the beheading!"

The emperor was silent when he heard the words, and motioned to bring the child to the main hall.

The children from the [-]th and [-]th came, about five, and a few middle-aged men.

The emperor looked at them and asked, "Where are you from?"

A middle-aged man clasped his fists and replied, "Your Majesty, the Caomin belong to Yaocheng."

The emperor was silent and looked at the children!

"what about you!"

Several children hurriedly replied: "We are from Yaocheng."

"I'm from Zhangcun."

"I'm from Liujiatun."

"I'm from the city!"

The children answered in a rush.

Because they came in a hurry, they didn't find anyone to teach them the rules, so these children said whatever they wanted.

The emperor nodded, and didn't care about their unreasonableness.

At this time, the emperor asked: "I come to ask you, this year, when King Leng's enemy killed people in your city of Yao, did you see it?"

A child nodded: "Yes, we all went to watch, beheaded directly, and killed several!"

"I saw it too, because one of them is my brother. I heard that I was going to kill my brother. I wanted to see him for the last time, so I saw it with my own eyes!"

The emperor frowned and continued: "Can you tell me about the situation at that time!"

The children looked at each other without making a sound.

The middle-aged man next to him took the initiative: "Let's talk about it, I was also there!"

The emperor suddenly asked: "Who are you and why are you here?"

The man said: "The grass man's name is Liu Da, and he pulls corpses."

"If anyone in the city dies and has no money to send, give me a copper coin, and I will drag the body to the mass grave."

"That day, when I heard that someone was going to kill someone, King Leng's men gave me a tael of silver and asked me to dispose of the body afterwards."

The emperor frowned, and continued to ask: "Then tell me, why did King Leng kill them at that time!"

Liu Da scratched his head and said: "This villain doesn't know, it seems that these people asked King Leng for money, but King Leng refused to admit it, the two sides quarreled, and those people scolded King Leng."

"King Leng ordered them to be beheaded."

The emperor's face became more gloomy when he heard the words, and without interrupting Liu Da, Liu Da narrated the whole scene at that time.

After the speech, the emperor's face became even more ugly, and the people in the court began to discuss.

After a while, the Minister of the Ministry of War came out and said: "Your Majesty, Leng Wang robbed the people's fat and people's anointment, and neglected human life. He should be punished for his crime!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, King Leng is ambitious and must be severely punished!" The Minister of the Ministry of Officials also followed suit.

When the two of them said this, the courtiers echoed one after another.

The prince said at this time: "Father, King Leng disregarded your trust and disregarded human life. This matter should be thoroughly investigated."

The emperor was also very angry, just when he was about to be furiously punished, suddenly, one of the children asked curiously:
"Hey, you are so interesting, why did you say that you want everyone to kill yourself!"

As soon as the child came out, everyone looked at the child in unison.

The emperor frowned: "What did you just say, say it again!"

The child hurriedly pointed to the prince and said, "It's not that we want to identify King Leng, he is King Leng, but why are you talking so strangely?"

All the courtiers were dumbfounded.

Jun Wentian didn't speak for a while, but at this moment, he seemed to have grasped something, and hurried out to ask:

"You said just now that he is Leng Wang?"

Jun Wentian refers to the prince.
