Yinzuo's personal guards led Yinhu's group to Birihe's cell, and after unlocking it, they all withdrew from the prison. Except for those officials from the Ministry of Punishment who kept shouting for injustice, only Yinzuo was left in the prison. There are several people in a row.Hearing the cries for help from the gang of slaves under him, Yinhu was puzzled, wondering why Yinzuo would give him such a good opportunity to meet Birihe alone, standing at the door of Birihe's cell for a while, feeling a little unsure Overwhelmed.

Bi Rihe was tortured yesterday, but he revealed the truth and the whole situation. He was anxious and uneasy. He thought that his master would come to rescue him, but he was also worried. Don't say that it is a heinous crime to betray a master's slave at this time. Seeing Yinhu right in front of his eyes, he felt mixed joy and fear. He staggered and fell to the ground, handcuffed and fettered. With a groaning sound, his mouth was choked with sobs and he said: "Master, this slave deserves to die, this slave deserves to die..."

Yinhu forced herself to hold back the uneasiness in her heart, and said with a calm expression: "Bi Rihe, you are so brave to commit such a crime behind your back, are you guilty?"

When Bi Rihe heard Yinhu's words, he couldn't help being stunned for a while, and then he understood his master's intention in a flash of thought-to make him take all the blame for his crimes.Bi Rihe fell into Yin Zuo's hands, and he knew that he was doomed, and there was only a glimmer of hope left, so he hoped that his master would rescue him, but now all hope was lost, he let go instead, kowtowed and said : "The slave acts recklessly against the master, and dare not ask the master for help, but please see the slave's hard work in the past, and give the slave's family a chance, even if the slave is smashed to pieces, it will be difficult to repay the master's great kindness."

Bi Rihe's words were talking about conditions, and the meaning in those words was - it's okay to ask me to bear all the crimes, but you have to keep my family.Bi Rihe's crime is enough to ransack the family and exterminate the clan, but according to the Qing law, it is inevitable for a man of Manchu origin like him to raid the house, but not necessarily to exterminate the clan.Yinhu was originally an exquisite person, how could he not understand the meaning of Bi Rihe's words, he pondered for a while and said: "You know how I always behave, and you will naturally have what is due to you. Your Highness the Crown Prince in a while If you want to ask questions, you must not make mistakes. If you have something to say, if..." Yinhu paused, then turned to a guard behind him and said, "Go, help him up."

A guard stepped forward to help Bi Richhe, and quietly stuffed something into Bi Richhe's palm.A trace of ashes flashed in Bi Rihe's eyes, and he replied with a gloomy expression: "Master, I will repay you in the next life..." Before he finished speaking, Yinzuo had led a group of personal guards in, and said loudly: " Eighth brother, my elder brother is here, it would be bad if I make the elder brother of the crown prince wait in a hurry, so how about going together?"

Yinhu glanced at Bi Rihe quickly, then turned around and said with a smile: "Success, little brother listens to Brother Six, so I'll go now."

Hey, Xiao Mian, it's done, mother, we'll give you some time to sing, if you can't sing well like this, then you're not qualified to be an oriole.Yinzuo looked at the smile on Lao Ba's face and knew that the master must have settled Bi Rihe, so he didn't say anything.Smiling, he gave orders to his subordinate guards: "Come on, take this thing to the lobby." Huai Xinsi talked and laughed all the way out of the prison and went to the lobby of the Ministry of Justice.

Prince Yinreng got impatient with waiting, and sent guards several times to look for Yinzuo, but they never found anyone. When the group of guards arrived at the prison of the Ministry of punishment, they were stopped by Yinzuo's personal guards, and Yinzuo was sealed on the prison of the Ministry of punishment. The imperial envoy guarded the defense, and the group of Zi Yuqing palace guards did not dare to risk their heads to break in, so they could only report in despair that the prince could not find anyone, but Yinfeng was so angry that seeing Bi Richhe After being escorted into the lobby, he immediately lifted his spirits, picked up the gavel on the table and slammed it, and said loudly, "Bi Rihe, are you convicted?"

"I know the crime, I have owed the great love of the sage, and committed such heinous crimes, I deserve ten thousand deaths for my sins." Bi Rihe replied with his head lowered.

The meaning of these words is that all the crimes were done by him alone. Immediately, Yinfeng, who wanted Bi Richhe to confess the mastermind behind the scenes, was so angry that he squinted at Lao Ba who was sitting leisurely by the side with a cold face. The group gritted their teeth and shouted: "Bi Rihe, you are so brave, how can such a small servant like you commit such a heinous crime? If you don’t die, there will be another reward, let’s talk about it.”

Heh, the second son is really tender, he can't even try a case, he doesn't have any questioning skills, and he just wants to make people confess, and the questioning doesn't have the slightest technical content.Yin Zuo sat upright, watching with cold eyes, and scorned Yin Reng fiercely in his stomach; Lao Ba looked at Bi Richhe with a smile on his face and didn't interrupt the prince's question, Lao Jiu and Lao Shi tried to say something What, but seeing that the eighth child didn't speak, they all endured it and went back; the fourth child saw that the prince is really not a talent for solving cases, frowned and glanced at the elder brothers sitting in the hall, and interjected coldly: "Bi! Rihe, you must know that the law of the country is ruthless, and your own life and death are minor matters, what will your family do? Do you really want to take the blame for others and harm your family?"

It is said that the fourth brother is insidious, and it is really fucking true. This question is so heartbreaking, it is much better than the second one. Hehe, it is interesting to see how the eighth trains his own slaves up.Yin Zuo smiled slightly, without saying a word, just sat firmly on the chair and watched the excitement.

Bi Rihe's face was blue and white for a while, and he struggled for a long time in his heart, but he still gritted his teeth and said: "I am the one who does the work. I know that death is inevitable, and I don't dare to hope that the Holy Spirit will be extrajudicial. The only way to thank you is to die." world."

"You..." Yinfeng jumped up angrily, pointed at Bi Rihe with trembling hands and said, "You lowly brat, how dare you play a rogue with me, come on, pull it down, beat me hard, I want you Let's see how long you can last?"

Yinfeng issued an order, and his own Yuqing Palace guards stepped forward to drag Bi Rihe out of the hall and torture him.Yinreng walked up and down the hall angrily, breathing heavily, and the other elder brothers all looked at Yinreng's eagerness to jump the wall with their own thoughts, and they all felt funny in their hearts, even the fourth brother He despised the prince fiercely in his heart.

There was a sound of hitting a board at the entrance of the hall, and then Bi Rihe yelled "pain" a few times, and then fell silent. The Yuqing Palace guards sniffed Bi Rihe in a panic, only then did he realize that he was dead , suddenly panicked, anxious to report back to the prince: "Prince, he is dead."

"What?" Yinfeng was dumbfounded immediately, and stood there blankly, not knowing what to do for a while.

Yinfeng didn't speak, but the old ten Yinyu said: "Dead? How could it be? Could it be that someone is planning to kill someone to silence him?"

The old ten's words that were neither yin nor yang stabbed the prince dizzy immediately, pointed at the old ten and said, "What do you mean by what the tenth brother said? Could it be that you dare to doubt me?"

The old ten spread his hands, and said with an aggrieved face: "No, how dare I doubt the elder brother of the prince. But it is always a fact that people die, right?"

Lao Jiu added quietly: "Yeah, it was fine just now, why did it disappear after being sentenced? Sigh, this is too cruel, right?"

The old ten immediately answered: "Yes, there must be something wrong here, shouldn't we investigate the cause of death?"

Yinfeng was so angry that his whole body trembled, he roared angrily: "Bold, presumptuous, how dare you talk to Ben Gong like that."

Lao Jiu and Lao Shi didn't follow the prince's tricks at all, and each looked up at the ceiling, allowing Yinfeng to lose his temper there.The fourth child saw that the situation was not good, and he felt a little anxious in his heart—it is not a big deal if a person dies, and the clues are broken. Shen Yin said: "Brother Prince, don't worry, there is something strange about this matter, I have to ask Wu Zuo to do an autopsy to find out why he died, and then make a plan."

Lao Ba smiled and added: "That's right, it should be tested carefully. After a person is dead, there must be an explanation, right? It's not easy to explain it to Huang Ama."

Hehe, Lao Ba is a ruthless dog. We expected that your kid would kill people to silence you. Yes, the opportunity we gave you was not wasted. It's interesting.Yinzuo has finished all the things that should be done, but now he died in the hands of the second child, and has nothing to do with him at all, and there are things in his own hands that can go to Mr. Kangxi's business, and now he is happy to watch the excitement , Seeing which of the two orioles crowed louder, Yin Zuo looked at his nose and his heart from his eyes, and sat with a deadpan expression on his face.

The results of the autopsy came out quickly, and Wu Zuo entered the lobby with a tray in his hand, knelt down and said, "Reporting to His Royal Highness and all the lords, the criminal died of poisonous wounds - there is a needle, half an inch long, inserted obliquely. Throat, there is a huge poison on the needle, and the throat is sealed with blood."

As soon as Wu Zuo's words fell, the elder brothers in the room were all surprised and unspeakable, and their voices fell silent for a long time.After a strange silence, Lao Jiu Yinzhen said in a dark voice: "There is something strange about this matter. If you don't die sooner, you won't die later. Hey, he just died at this moment."

The old ten also continued: "Yes, how could this happen? Sixth brother was fine when he was here, why did he die at this time?"

In the words of these two brothers, the crime of poisoning Bi Rihe was pinned on Yinreng's head, Yinreng was so angry that his face turned blue, but he died in the hands of Yuqing Palace guards, and he couldn't find out for a while. He used an excuse to fight back, with a frighteningly green face, glaring at Lao Jiu and Lao Ten, panting heavily.

The fourth son, Yinzhen, saw that it was not good. If the prince had suffered, he would not be able to please him. He raised his brows and said, "The person is dead, but it must be something wrong now. This poisonous needle came from Where it came from is the key, and we need to find out who gave Bi Riche the poisonous injection and made him commit suicide." The fourth child firmly insisted that Bi Riche committed suicide and had nothing to do with the prince. But the spearhead in the words turned to Yin Zuo, who had been silent all the time. After all, Bi Rihe was in Yin Zuo's hands all the time.

Damn, you bastard, fourth, you really plan to be the third oriole, mother, don't you mean to tell everyone to turn their firepower on us?mock up!Shady enough.Yinzuo was furious, but his face remained calm, and he said with a smile: "Eighth brother, the person we both went to mention together, ah, sixth brother was anxious at that time, and left for a while, can anyone see him?" Pass Birich?"

Yinzuo unceremoniously kicked the ball to Yinhu, what he meant was that Lao Ba met Bi Rihe alone, and the accident happened at that time, it has nothing to do with us, you continue to fight.Yinhu saw that Yinzuo sold himself as soon as he changed hands, and he became very angry in his heart, but what he said was the truth, even if he wanted to deny it at the moment, there was no possibility of it. He could only smile and said: "It's true that no one else has come, but the younger brother did not enter the prison alone, and Brother Six's personal guards can also testify to this point."

Yinzuo smiled and said nothing, Yinreng immediately exploded as if he had picked up a life-saving straw: "Eighth brother, you are doing well, this dog is your slave, it is not a matter of a word to beat or kill, hehe .”

The smile on Yinhu's face remained the same, and he said leisurely: "I have never met that idiot in private. As for his death, although he deserved his crime, he died too soon. Some people are afraid that their own scandals will be exposed. Come out, just shut up like this, alas, it's really hard to watch."

Yinhu bit back, claiming that the mastermind of Bi Richhe was the crown prince, and immediately choked the crown prince, jumping up and saying: "You, you, Bi Richhe is your slave."

The old ten immediately interjected: "The sea of ​​sellers begging for glory these days is gone. A few days ago, my servant just killed a house slave who stole with a cane."

The prince was so choked that he said with a sullen face: "I am going to play Emperor Ama, and I must investigate this matter to the bottom. Hmph!" With a wave of his sleeves, he went out angrily. What else would the fourth child want to say? , but seeing the prince left, he had no choice but to leave with a wry smile.

Ugh, that's the end of the show, it's boring.Seeing that the prince was angry and ran away, Yinzuo didn't bother to stay any longer, so he got up with a smile, and said to Lao Ba and his group humanely: "Ah, Brother Six has been busy for a few days and is exhausted. I will leave it to the three younger brothers from the Ministry of Punishment." Brother, let's take a step first." As soon as the words fell, he ignored the three brothers' persuasion, led his more than 200 guards on horseback and went back to the palace.

"Hahaha..., I watched a big show today, and I feel very refreshed." When Yin Zuo saw Wu and Lin who had already been waiting in the study, he immediately smiled and called today's punishment to the yamen of the Ministry of Punishment. I have described in detail what happened here, and the job is over, the hot potatoes are all in the hands of the prince and Lao Ba at the moment, so Yin Zuo is naturally very happy.

The two counselors were not too proud, after all, these things had already been expected by them, but now they were thinking about the aftermath.After being silent for a while, Lin Xuanyi spoke first: "This incident is very strange. After discussing it with Yulu for a long time, Li He and Yulu always felt that the way of the Ministry of Criminal Justice was a little strange."

Strange?Yinzuo couldn't help being a little dazed—the reason why Lao Ba and his gang were punished was entirely due to Yin Zuo's plan to bring trouble to Shuidongyin. He originally planned to let the prince and Lao Ba fight fiercely. It was all in the calculations of Wu and Lin, and there was no major out of shape. The old man Kangxi was not in the capital, so the role played by the old man in the farce of the capital was very limited.Yin Zuo thought about it for a while and couldn't understand what Lin Xuanyi said was strange.

Wu Sidao sat cross-legged on the chair, glanced at Yin Zuo who was puzzled, and sighed, "Don't you think that the Holy One left Beijing too hastily?"

Hasty?Well, I was a little hasty, I was in a hurry to go to the south of the Yangtze River just a few days after the autumn hunting, there seems to be a bit of a fuss here, huh?It is also weird to call the old thirteen generations to sacrifice to Mount Tai. What exactly does the old man want to do?Could it be that... Yin Zuo's heart moved, and he asked as if he had realized something: "What did you mean...?"

"That's right, the mantis is catching the cicada, and the oriole is behind, but he forgot that the hunter still holds a bow and arrow in his hand." Wu Sidao said coldly.

Damn, what a ruthless old man, damn it, all the elder brothers have been counted into it, oh, it is the ancestor's rule for the elder brothers to open a mansion and build a tooth, even if the old man is a hero of a generation, he dare not object openly. The turmoil, the old man is afraid that he has felt the power in the hands of the elder brothers. Although he has cut the power of the elder brothers many times, he is still worried after all. One day, his old man came back to clean up the mess.Damn, the old man made a mess again.Yinzuo shook his head with some annoyance and said: "I'm afraid the arrow has already been shot, and I'm afraid this disaster will not be avoided. I wonder if the two gentlemen have any opinions?"

"The Holy Majesty is a hero of a generation. There should be no sand in his eyes, and he must not quarrel with the Holy Majesty. He must do what he should do. With the wisdom of the prince, there is no need for Yulu to say anything." Wu Sidao said while stroking his beard. .

Yinzuo nodded silently, walked to the window, looked at the snow in the yard, and sighed, but there was a different feeling in his heart - father and son believed in this level, and it can be regarded as the foundation of imperial power since ancient times. Just a big feature.
