The devil is coming

Chapter 697 An unexpected turn!
"It's my son."
No one could have imagined that at this moment, the person who came out to plead guilty was the sixth prince of Yan... Ji Chengjue.
Today’s grand meeting,
Today’s Golden Palace,
All ministers and nobles knew before coming to court that they were destined to be uneasy.
Many people, when they returned home for supper after the palace banquet last night, said with emotion to their nephew:
"Tomorrow is destined to be uneventful."
then,
I still have to sigh three times,
Staring at the flickering candlelight again,
Try to keep it as secretive as possible.
Even if he has no role at all in today's imperial meeting, he must create a dilemma in which he is in a whirlpool to satisfy his concern for the country and the people.
but,
This is not just about being unable to calm down, it is about twists and turns, and each twist is the kind that breaks bones and tears tendons, and the sound of cracking bones can be heard very clearly.
The princeling officials were stunned.
This,
Which one is this?
The officials of the Liuye Party had expressions of shock on their faces. At this moment, these adults were no longer able to keep their emotions and anger hidden, and they completely failed.
The prince's hand was still holding the railing on the platform of the golden palace. Beside him, there was a golden dragon head with majestic dragon eyes staring downward. The prince's eyes at this time were as wide as the eyes of the dragon beside him.
Da Zongzhengji Changwang raised her head and looked at the sixth prince kneeling in front of her with some disbelief.
After Mr. Zheng got over the shock, he quickly made calculations in his heart.
In fact, a large part of his energy is involved in the military, so Zheng Houye feels that his political vision is not bad, but when it comes to political planning and conspiracy methods, Zheng Houye believes that Ji Laoliu must be ahead of him.
There must be a deep meaning in what he did.
The prince's expression, body language, etc. were almost ready to declare collapse. Therefore, Da Zongzheng's arrow must have been aimed at the prince.
Yanhuang made a move to press the arrow, but Da Zongzheng pushed back with the intention of retreating.
When the arrow was shot, Ji Chengjue suddenly stepped out and blocked the arrow without hesitation.
Is there a deep brotherhood?
Zheng Fan didn't think that when it was time to entrust the whole family to his care, Ji Chengjue would still have the heart to act like a brother and sister here.
Do you want to sacrifice yourself to take the blame for the prince?
Do you want to show that you can easily knock down the prince with one blow, and then show off your ability to take the overall situation into consideration and endure the humiliation?
I deliberately want to show you, Emperor Yan, whether your son can go up or down?
Do not,
Do not,
impossible.
Lord Zheng shook his head slightly in his heart, it couldn't be like this, and it couldn't be like this.
This is the decisive battle. As the prince contestant who holds on to the throne until the end, if you, Ji Laoliu, want to retreat, you can retreat with the fourth prince on the second floor of the roast duck restaurant. In this way, you may still be able to leave a piece of incestuous love, which you can carry with you in the future. If you are a tail person, you still have a chance to be a happy prince, or your son and grandson can live a more comfortable life.
Not quitting the roast duck restaurant means there is no way out.
It's completely unnecessary for you to act coyly and block the gun at this time.
At the most critical moment of seizing the heir, he knocked a shit basin on his head. Isn't this a disease?
You are not the boss, the fourth or the fifth, nor the underage Xiao Qi. You are the sixth master who gritted his teeth and persisted until the end, even half a body ahead of the prince.
A woman's kindness will not exist at this time, Ji Laoliu, he will not make such a mistake.
Furthermore, any retreat at this time, any so-called show, any brotherhood, any false concern, are all irresponsible to the courtiers who follow you. If you play like this, the team will inevitably become alienated and people's hearts will be divided. Once dispersed, it collapsed.
Mr. Zheng’s eyes narrowed.
Because Ji Laoliu was kneeling there, face down, Zheng Fan couldn't see clearly his expression at this time.
Yes,
Is it necessary to do this?
Is there any reason not to do this?
Zheng Fan moved his eyes away from Ji Chengjue and looked at Da Zongzheng, then looked at the prince, and finally, like a dragonfly, he glanced at the position of Emperor Yan's dragon chair.
At this time,
Emperor Yan’s voice sounded:
"Chengjue, say it again."
Ji Chengjue raised his head,
There was a calm expression on his face:
"That little girl belongs to my son. If my son is immoral, please punish me!"
The voice was very clear and loud, and all the ministers in the Golden Palace could hear it clearly.
And then,
Zheng Fan suddenly noticed that Da Zongzheng, who was kneeling a little behind, actually revealed a hint of complexity, even... fear, in his eyes.
At this time, the prince also knelt down.
It is natural for a brother to plead guilty. As an elder brother, he must defend himself and kneel down to beg for mercy. However, in the eyes of others, it is more like he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief when he was at the height of competition, and his whole body collapsed.
Emperor Yan ignored the prince and was not in a hurry to punish Ji Chengjue.
Instead, he looked at Da Zongzheng, his uncle, who was kneeling behind him;
"Da Zongzheng."
"Your Majesty... is here."
"You just said that your evidence is very detailed. Let me ask you, does the evidence really refer to Cheng Jue?"
"minister……"
Beads of sweat began to appear on Da Zongzheng's face.
The position of clan leader is usually held by the person with the highest seniority. In fact, Dazongzheng is older, but he is only a little older than Emperor Yan.
After all, it is not unusual for the emperor's sons to have a wide age range.
But at this moment, Da Zongzheng's face began to turn pale.
At last,
He gritted his teeth,
Road:
"To answer His Majesty's question, no."
"hiss……"
This time, many people really took a breath of cold air. It is really hard to control themselves if they continue to take it seriously after all these twists and turns.
Straight bitch,
What is going on right now!
The men sent by the Sixth Master's Party launched a thunderous strike at the prince;
Subsequently,
The leader of the Liuye Party appeared in person and blocked the blow himself;
It stands to reason,
Quebec City has already taken such responsibility.
As a result, you, a charger, didn't follow the leader's path?
Everyone is an old man in the officialdom. Even those nobles who hold the title have been exposed to certain things since childhood, so everyone knows that this cannot be a matter of tacit cooperation or lack of tacit understanding. If there is no tacit understanding, as long as you have some brains, it will not happen. This situation.
The sweat on Da Zongzheng's face became more and more intense.
Prime Minister Zhao Jiulang still stood there, motionless as a mountain.
The real court bosses such as the ministers of various ministries and the ministers around him may have the intention of getting close to a certain prince, but they only agree with that prince's policy and philosophy of governing the country. At their level, When necessary, just turn a blind eye, or when necessary, just push the boat along without leaving any trace. You will not end up personally, and you will lose your share.
When a hunter wants to bite someone, how can he just open his mouth and release the dog? If he becomes a boss, who doesn't have a group of dogs under him?
Of course, this does not mean that they are now "seeing everything" with their superior posture. In fact, they are also making eye contact frequently and shaking their heads slightly. Obviously, they are also confused about the situation in front of them.
But Lord Zheng was keenly aware of one detail.
That is when Your Majesty asked Da Zongzong,
Let me mention something first:
Since the evidence is solid.
This was the first time that Da Zongzheng said this himself.
Then, His Majesty asked again.
Therefore,
Da Zongzheng simply couldn't change his story. His arrow was pointed at the prince at the beginning, so it must be pointed at the prince. It can even be said that there will be a line of words clearly engraved on the arrow: This arrow is specially designed to kill the prince!
Unless Emperor Yan deliberately erased this line and everyone was confused, then he could just find another prince to be the cheap father and make a plan.
But Emperor Yan’s tone was,
He wants to see the evidence;
Want to see,
The evidence you investigated, the evidence you prepared!
Along with looking good today, Emperor Yan's temper also improved.
Emperor Yan was tired of the many twists and turns in this matter, so he blocked Da Zongzheng's road and forcefully forced him to move forward.
"Then, who is it?"
Da Zong was banging his head heavily on the ground.
Almost crying,
shouted:
"Your Majesty, I don't dare to say it, I don't dare to say it."
Ji Chengjue was still kneeling there, motionless.
The prince had stood up, but his eyes were closed.
At this time,
Emperor Yan set his sights on the person in the first position in the first row on his left.
The monarch and his ministers have supported each other for so many years. They have become accustomed to each other and have become almost instinctive.
Even without looking up to meet His Majesty's gaze, Zhao Jiulang knew that it was time for him, the Prime Minister, to come out.
Zhao Jiulang came out,
Road:
"Your Majesty, I have something to say."
"Zaifu just said it doesn't matter."
"The bloodline of the Tian family is related to the foundation of our country, and there is no room for sloppiness or mistakes. Da Zong is in this position. He said it with certainty before, but now he is vague and dare not say it clearly.
In fact, they are making fun of the majesty and laws of the heavenly family.
minister,
Please punish Da Zong for dereliction of duty;
minister,
Please punish Da Zong for his crime of insulting the Heavenly Family;
minister,
Please punish me for the crime of disrespect! "
As soon as Zhao Jiulang finished speaking,
immediately,
All the ministers and ministers came forward.
"My minister agrees!"
"My minister agrees!"
The Minister of Punishment said directly:
"Your Majesty, Da Zongzheng still dares not speak out directly in the golden palace of the Chaotang. Doesn't it mean that there is no room for him to tell the truth in this magnificent palace?
This is a crime of contempt for the country's laws and contempt for the emperor! "
After all these rows of guilt were laid down, no one would turn their eyes and say something like "execute" to the emperor's uncle.
But looking at the current situation, everyone knows the emperor's indifference towards the clan. With the Prime Minister's personal endorsement, this crime will not only lose the main position of the clan, but also lose the title even if it is not possible. For the clan with close relatives, it is more difficult than Death is even more uncomfortable.
Da Zongzheng closed his eyes,
He opened his mouth and said:
"Your Majesty, what I have found out is that the little girl is the daughter of the prince!"
Da Zongzheng finally spoke out and gave the answer that anyone with a discerning eye would have understood.
"Oh?" Emperor Yan said, "Prince."
The prince knelt down again and said nothing.
Emperor Yan did not question the prince, but stretched out his hand, pointed at Ji Chengjue who was kneeling below, and said:
"Chengjue, what's going on with you?"
"Returning to my father, the person who has lost his moral character is indeed his son-in-law and has nothing to do with the prince."
Ji Chengjue continued to insist.
"Haha, this is quite interesting. It's interesting. I recuperated in the back garden for a while. After I came back, I was really a respectful brother. Even the brothers were trying to blame me for this kind of immoral crime. Back.
You two,
It really makes me happy. "
"Da Zongzheng, I ask you again, who is the evidence you investigated pointing to?"
"Your Majesty, this is the Crown Prince, His Highness the Crown Prince."
"Cheng Jue, I'm going to ask you one more time, who is it that is so immoral?"
"If you want to return to your father, it will be your son himself."
Emperor Yan shook his head,
At last,
His eyes fell on the prince,
Road:
"Prince, who is he?"
"Father... son and minister..."
The prince knelt even lower.
"Okay, okay."
Emperor Yan stretched out his hand and patted the dragon chair,
"I made you all laugh."
next moment,
Lord Zheng immediately followed the others' movements and bowed to the dragon chair together.
Said in unison:
"I dare not wait."
"I dare not wait."
"But since this matter has already come to this, I want to see it clearly, and I ask all of you, dear friends, to see it clearly with me.
Da Zongzheng,
I ask you,
Where are the mother and daughter now? "
"If you reply to Your Majesty, I'll be at the clan's mansion."
"Wei Zhonghe."
"The slave is here!"
"Go and pick up the people and the physical evidence, too, for everyone to see clearly."
"The slave obeys the order."
Eunuch Wei immediately walked down the high platform of the Golden Palace, passed by the Crown Prince, then passed by Ji Chengjue, then passed by Da Zongzheng, and then, under the attention of the civil and military officials of the court, walked out of the Golden Palace.
"I will give you three one last chance." Emperor Yan glanced at the three people kneeling below, "In a while, when Wei Zhonghe brings them over, I will not show you any mercy anymore."
The Crown Prince, the Sixth Prince, Da Zongzheng,
The three of them all continued to kneel there, and no one retracted their confessions.
"it is good."
Emperor Yan slowly closed his eyes,
Road:
"Look."
.........
The Zongren Mansion is a big yamen, and he manages a lot of people. All the weddings and funerals of the royal family named Ji have to go through here, but his yamen is not that big.
Because this yamen is full of parents who are short-lived, who look up but don't see each other when they look down, and they are all related to each other.
And since this generation of Emperor Yan succeeded to the throne, he transferred the power of money and food of the surname Ji that was originally controlled by the Zongren Mansion to the Ministry of Internal Affairs. The money and food were not taken care of, so no matter whether the poor relatives or the rich relatives, they were really not very happy. is you.
However, the airs of this yamen are still there.
At this time,
In the courtyard room behind the Zongren Mansion, Ah Rou was handing a piece of shortbread to the girl in front of her.
The girl held the shortbread in both hands and took a bite.
laughed:
"Mom, sweet."
Ah Rou stretched out her hand and caressed the girl's head.
At this time, she was wearing an old but very clean flowered jacket. She looked like a peasant woman, but in fact, the delicacy of a woman who had been born in the palace could not be concealed no matter what.
They are not in jail, nor can they be thrown into jail. Instead, they are being guarded in a private room, with someone responsible for three meals a day.
At the door, there were many yamen servants from the sect's mansion standing.
Arou just watched the girl eating,
she remembers,
When I was very young, I was brought into the Min family by the young lady's family. The first food I was given was peach cake.
She still remembered the sweet taste in her mouth when she took a bite.
In a flash,
So many years have passed.
At this time,
A group of people dressed in secret agent uniforms walked directly into the courtyard of the back room.
The leader took out his badge and shouted to the Zongrenfu Yamen guarding here:
"On the order of Eunuch Wei, I came to pick up someone. Hand him over quickly."
When the government officials saw that they were from the Secret Service, they immediately got out of the way.
Ah Rou heard the noise outside, got up and hugged the girl.
The girl raised her head and asked A Rou very innocently:
"Mom, are you going to see dad?"
Arou didn't answer.
He just reached out and gently touched the girl's face.
however,
Just when the people from the Secret Service were about to open the door of the wing, suddenly, an iron rod swept over and created a wave of air!
The two secret agents at the front who were about to open the door were knocked to the ground.
Doorway,
A tall monk holding an iron rod appeared.
"Bold!"
"Presumptuous, who are you!"
The monk smiled and said,
replied:
"Ning'an Escort Company II enshrines the leper-headed monk—Zhou Chang."
"Ha ha ha ha………"
At this moment, three more figures appeared on the roof above the wing.
A man in black robe, a woman in purple, and an old man with a hunchback holding a wine gourd.
The man in black robe shouted:
"Nanwang Trading Company is offering a large tribute to the black-faced ghost——Liu Mingyang."
The woman in purple smiled and said:
"Three enshrinements of the Shanhai Guild, Wu Ying."
The old man took a sip of wine.
Shouted below;
"In the land of Jin, Qin Tuozi."
The four of them have all made famous names in the world. The most terrifying thing is that all four of them are fourth-level masters!
and,
Being able to summon so many chambers of commerce to worship in Yanjing City at once,
There is only one person,
Back then, at the time of the wedding, the top shopkeepers from the major chambers of commerce came to Yanjing in person to pay their respects to the young master.
These masters cannot be bought with gold or silver, they rely on favors!
The head of the Secret Intelligence Department was not afraid. All the gangsters around him drew their knives on guard, and he even shouted directly:
"This is an important place in the capital, if you dare to be so presumptuous, get out of the way quickly, otherwise, the secret spies and judicial network will be ruthless!"
Four fourth-level masters must be powerful, but they are not to the point where the Secret Agent is afraid.
As long as they dare to act recklessly here, the secret agents will be dispatched in a moment, and at the same time, the Forbidden Army will immediately round them up.
"Haha, old man, I drank too much, but I heard clearly what the old man just said. Are you here to pick someone up on the order of Eunuch Wei?
to make,
Where is Eunuch Wei's badge?Seals are also available.
We are all good, law-abiding citizens. As long as the rules are correct, there will be no obstruction in keeping things. "
"Presumptuous, what qualifications do you have to watch!"
"Oh, there's nothing we can do about it. My boss has given instructions. Without an imperial edict or Eunuch Wei's credentials, we can't let this person be taken away by irrelevant people.
Otherwise, if the boss blames us, we will have to deduct our wine money. "
In the wing house below,
Ah Rou, who had been paying attention to what was going on outside, immediately showed a hint of anxiety in her eyes.
immediately,
He suddenly looked down at the girl in his arms,
then,
He reached out and pulled out a hairpin from his hair.
"Buzz!"
A cyan cyclone hit Arou's wrist directly, and the hairpin was knocked out.
immediately,
Eunuch Zhang flashed out of the back room of the wing.
One hand grasped Ah Rou's wrist,
The other hand slapped Ah Rou's face directly.
"Snapped!"
Ah Rou was slapped so hard that blood spilled from the corner of her mouth, and she stared at Eunuch Zhang in front of her in disbelief.
Eunuch Zhang sneered,
scolded:
"Bitch!"
