Chaos on the temples: You can't escape if you provoke treacherous ministers

Chapter 297 Self-harm
Yan Mu picked up the knife tremblingly, his eyes were bloodshot, and something in his body was screaming.

too painful!

If you die, you can't feel it!

kill yourself!
He uncontrollably pressed the knife to his neck, and as long as he exerted force, the sharp blade would cut his throat immediately...

At this moment, there was movement outside.

Yan Mu thought about it for a moment, looked at the knife in his hand, and put it down in a panic.

It was Jiang Yuan who came. He entered the back room and saw that Yan Mu had lost a lot of weight compared to the last time he saw him, and his face was almost bloodless. He endured his worries and knelt down on one knee to salute.

"Master, regarding the matter of Wuwei Great General Han Lin's private casting of copper coins, this subordinate has followed your instructions to let the supervisory censor He Liang discover and obtain the evidence."

Yan Mu lowered his eyes, thought for a moment, and said: "Han Zhao killed He Zichong, Han Lin has always been lawless, and will definitely put pressure on Jingzhao Mansion to let Han Zhao escape the crime, and He Liang, the supervisory censor, has only one son, He Zichong." , but let’s see if he has the guts to expose Han Lin’s private casting of copper coins.”

He spoke lightly, with a bit of sarcasm, obviously he didn't have much hope for He Liang.

But he did what had to be done, and if it didn't work out, there was nothing he could do.

He had pessimistic thoughts about everything from the beginning, but he was not afraid that he would lose his life at worst, as if he would be relieved that way, even what he expected.

Jiang Yuan raised his head and glanced at Yan Mu, and said, "This Han Lin is deeply involved with Princess Heshuo. Once the private casting of copper coins is revealed, Princess Heshuo will rush back to Jin'an to stabilize the situation."

At that time, the master can take revenge!
It's just that she is the biological mother after all, so what can the master do?

Here, Liu Yunxiang helped Zijin bandage the wound. She heard the sound of horseshoes outside. She was really curious about what happened outside. Seeing a ladder in the corner, she carefully climbed up to the top of the wall.

The lights of Tianxiang Building, together with many torches, illuminate the entrance of the alley not far away like daytime, so Liu Yunxiang can clearly see the situation there.

There are many officials over there, about 30 people, surrounding the entrance of the alley layer by layer.

At this time, two officials came out carrying a board, on which lay He Zichong's body.

Liu Yunxiang didn't see it clearly at that time, but looking at it now, he couldn't help gasping.He Zichong's corpse was really horrible, with more than a dozen knives all over his face, bloody and bloody, one arm was broken, two legs were gone, and a large amount of blood spilled out of his mouth.

This doesn't look like a human corpse, it's more like a pool of flesh and blood.

At this moment, a carriage stopped outside, and two maidservants helped a woman get down. The woman couldn't stand at all, and was supported by the maidservants.An officer stepped forward to stop him, but the woman drank the officer away with a drink, then stepped forward, and when she saw the corpse on the wooden board, she froze for a moment.

"No...not my son..."

The two maidservants also saw it, and after confirming it for a while, they burst into tears.

The woman shouted: "Why are you crying? It's not Chong Geer at all!"

"Madam... is... the Eldest Young Master..."

"Nonsense!" the woman said anxiously. She pushed away the two maidservants, rushed forward in twos and twos, and pointed at the corpse on the board, "This face is blurred, how can you tell it's Brother Chong, and he still has an arm?" ...the arms are gone, the legs are gone, how could it be me!"

The woman circled around the corpse like crazy, and when she finally saw one, she slammed against her body.She hesitated for a while, then suddenly tore off the jade pendant from the corpse's waist.

"This jade pendant is for brother, I asked the master to consecrate it for him..."

As the woman spoke, she looked at the corpse again, her eyes widened, and the corners of her mouth trembled: "Chong'er...it's my son..."

The woman burst into tears, leaned over the corpse, and called her son's name over and over again.

The officer pushed Han Zhao out, and Han Zhao yelled, "Are you blind? You don't know who I am. I'm Han Zhao. Let's see who dares to arrest me!"

"Little General Han, since this happened, why don't you go back to the yamen with us and explain the matter clearly?" An official asked patiently.

"I'm sleepy and tired, I just want to go home and sleep!" Han Zhao shouted.

As he said that, he pushed away the two officials around him and was about to leave. Seeing this, the woman bumped into Han Zhao.

"You killed my son, I want your life to pay!"

Han Zhao didn't even look at who it was, and kicked him away with one kick.

"A He Zichong, a lowly one, dare to make Lao Tzu pay for his life!"

The two maidservants rushed forward to help the woman up, and the woman was trembling with anger, "You... you are the son of a great general...so what...you pay for your life...I, the Yushifu, will definitely seek this justice!"

Han Zhao snorted, "How many times have I said this, I didn't kill He Zichong, he...he bumped into my knife himself!"

No one at the scene believed what he said.

"What are your expressions, am I worthy of killing him, a bastard!"

"You!" The woman almost fainted from anger.

Han Zhao suppressed his anger and said, "I didn't cut off his arms and legs. The murderer was someone else. You trash, why don't you catch the real murderer and pester me!"

With that said, he is leaving!
Both the officer and the woman went up to stop him, but at this moment a troop of cavalry came up and got off their horses one after another and saluted Han Zhao.

Han Zhao waved his hand, and the soldiers quickly stepped forward to stop the officials.With a sneer, he stepped forward and was about to mount his horse.

"Jingzhao Prefecture handles the case, and please cooperate with General Han!"

At this time, a man in a plain robe arrived, obviously just got the news and hurried over from home.

Han Lin narrowed his eyes, "Su Qing, your Jingzhao Mansion is capable, how dare you mess with my General's Mansion?"

This person is Su Qing, Yin of Jingzhao Mansion, and said with a smile: "If the little general is sent back to the mansion tonight, I'm afraid the general will not spare me!"

"What do you mean by that?"

"This is a life, and the one who died was He Yushi's son. The little general also knows He Yushi's mouth. No one in the court can take advantage of his mouth. If I let the little general go, outsiders Don't say that the general is using power to exert pressure, or even that the officials and officials are protecting each other. Explain the matter clearly, if it really has nothing to do with the little general, you can walk out of the Jingzhao Mansion cleanly, and this will also avoid an unnecessary dispute."

Although Han Lin is domineering and arrogant, he is not an idiot, knowing that what Su Qing said has some truth.

And He Zichong died, he really wanted to know who dared to blame him.

"This little general will follow you back to the government office. After all, Zi Chong is also a good friend of this little general, so he must have worked hard for him."

"Bah! You are the murderer of my son!" The woman gritted her teeth in hatred.

Han Lin's face darkened, he didn't bother with the woman any more, and followed Su Qing away.

Liu Yunxiang propped his chin with both hands, thinking of the man in black, who could he be?
"girl!"

Hearing Zijin calling her, Liu Yunxiang looked down, but saw Pei Rong looking up at her with a warm smile on his face.

"Liu Yunxiang, how good is the scenery on the wall?"

Liu Yunxiang climbed down the ladder in embarrassment, and smiled at Pei Rong, thinking of He Zichong, she hurriedly explained: "He Zichong's death is none of our business."

After all, the timing of their appearance was too easy to be misunderstood.

Pei Rong nodded, "I know someone else."

"Do you know who it is?"

Pei Rong smiled, "Did you say anything?"

Liu Yunxiang thought to himself, is this Pei Rong still an accomplice?
