Chapter 140
Eyelashes trembled, Fengyue wanted to stop, but someone grabbed her wrist, she couldn't help but turned her head and shouted: "Madam Qiu, help me!"

Mrs. Qiu, who was still watching Yin Gezhi leave in a daze at the door, came back to her senses, and hurried over to break Feng Ming's hand away: "The young master is not in good health now, what are you doing so hard!"

Letting go of his hands hastily, Feng Ming frowned, seeing that Fengyue had no intention of saying anything, thought for a while, and said: "Madam Qiu, follow me to greet General Yin."

"Huh?" Mrs. Qiu was taken aback, remembering that Yin Yanzhong was Feng Ming's master, she thought it was reasonable, so she nodded, let Fengyue continue writing, and took him out.

As soon as she went out, Feng Ming asked her: "How did her iron body become like this?"

Mrs. Qiu was taken aback, pursed her lips and drooped her eyes: "We don't know what exactly happened, we only know that the young master's arm tendons were broken when he came out of prison, and she didn't say anything about it when I asked her."

Broken hand tendon? !He took a deep breath and didn't listen to anything else. Feng Ming turned around and rushed back to Fengyue. His eyes were full of shock. He wanted to reach out but was afraid of hurting her. He stood beside her and asked, "Your hand ?”

Rubbing her temples, Fengyue sighed: "I'm fine, don't act like you love me, it's been so long, you'll make me feel uncomfortable, I can't deal with myself, understand ?”

She has practiced kung fu for more than ten years, and if she says nothing, it will be gone. Why doesn't she feel distressed and resentful?But she is already good at burying the wound with soil, so there is no need to use that kind of eyes to dig the soil, let her think about it again, right?Learn from Yin Gezhi, indifference also has its benefits, don't mention these things to her at all, so worry free.

He swallowed hard, choked his throat all the way to his heart, Feng Ming shut up, wiped his face, gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I won't mention it, tell me who did it, I'll kill him!"

Who did it?Fengyue couldn't help but look sideways at him, her eyes sparkling: "That's more than one person, and you can't kill him if you want to, unless you take the whole Zhen Guohou's mansion to be buried with you!"

With a slight shudder, Feng Ming calmed down, but seeing her like this made him really uncomfortable. After thinking about it, he took the pen and ink in front of her, pulled out a roll of white paper, and started to write the notebook.

Since you can't kill her murderer, then help her do what she wants to do!

Therefore, the first memorial that the emperor received to make things worse was from Feng Ming.The words of the memorial were outraged, pointing out that Zhao Xu searched for women from the people under the banner of dedicating them to the emperor, but none of them were sent to the palace. His behavior was really bad and affected his reputation.

With such a beginning, the memorials of other people in the DPRK also came up one after another, digging up Zhao Xu's many evil deeds, deceiving his superiors, making friends with his followers, and trying to control the military power.

These people knew how to write scriptures, poking at the emperor's sore spots, so that he would not be able to forgive Zhao Xu after reading it.

During the interrogation by the third division, Zhao Xu has an official position, so he would not have been tortured, but unfortunately, Prince Xiao was in a bad mood recently, so he went to Taiwei's yamen, visited Zhao Xu, and then Taiwei The people in the yamen were merciless when trying people. They used whatever torture tools they had, and even used new special torture tools from Dali Temple.

Zhao Xu was bruised and bruised, and his heart was full of resentment: "I have been wronged! Your Majesty! I have no intention of killing the king, no!"

"No?" The presiding judge Lian Heng said solemnly: "But all the servants in your house have confessed that they were ordered by you to intentionally poison His Majesty."

"Ridiculous!" Zhao Xu roared, "I am deeply favored by His Majesty, don't you think it makes no sense to do anything to poison His Majesty and cause death!"

"It really doesn't make sense at first." Lian Heng stretched out his hand, took out a copy of the memorial, and threw it in front of him: "But the third division's strict investigation found out that your ancestor was an important minister of the former court."

Zhao Xu was taken aback for a moment, then shook his head: "My ancestor is my ancestor, and I am me!"

"Your Majesty doesn't believe this." Lian Heng shook his head: "With the precedents of Emperor Song Hui and Lei Yi, my lord can neither give evidence that he was wronged, nor catch the murderer. For the crime of murdering His Majesty, my lord will surely settle the case soon."

"No...no..." Zhao Xu burst into tears: "They wronged me, I didn't want to kill the king, I didn't!"

"Bold! Your Majesty has personally experienced it, and all officials have witnessed it. How dare you call it wrong?!"

Shaking his head violently, the chains on his body slammed, and Zhao Xu cursed angrily: "What kind of witnesses are civil and military officials! They clearly fell at the first sight of the wind, a bunch of boneless things! Didn't General Guan have all the evidence back then? Are they in a hurry to finalize the case! How can you believe what they say!"

Lian Heng was startled, slapped his hands on the table and stood up: "What nonsense are you talking about! Isn't the evidence of Guan's treason conclusive!"

"General Lian, thank you for being Guan Canghai's most trusted lieutenant general." Zhao Xu laughed, "You don't know the virtues of our majesty? Don't you know the ethos of the officials? Just like me today, General Guan was also killed in this way!"

Lian Heng was shocked, his face changed instantly, and he almost lost his footing.

He is the most stern and selfless, so when Guan Canghai was accused of treason, even the person he admired the most, he never begged for mercy.At that time, there were voices of crusade from the government and the people, and he said it with certainty, so he took it for granted that Guan Canghai was really a traitor, and even hated him for it.

However, he was wronged?
"Your Majesty wants him to die, and all the civil and military officials followed suit. I was the first person who wanted to shut down the family, but even I don't know if the Guan family is treasonous or not." Zhao Xu trembled. Throated: "I didn't expect, I didn't expect that such a fate would fall on me one day! General Lian, I was wronged!"

Taking a few steps back, Lian Heng turned his head and wanted to go out.

However, at the dimly lit doorway, Prince Xiaoqin stood with his hands behind his back, blocking his way.

"Since a loyal minister has been wronged to death, why not kill another treacherous minister unjustly?" The cold voice sounded in the prison that day, sending chills down the spine.Lian Heng frowned and raised his head, looked at him and said:

"My lord, state-owned state law!"

"This king has also said this to others." After slowly stepping into the cell, Yin Gezhi sneered, stared at Lian Heng and said: "Unfortunately, in the eyes of His Majesty, a country has no laws, and one can do things according to one's own preferences. Then, injustice So what about the dead, what about the unjust death?"

Lian Heng was taken aback, unable to admit it, but saw Yin Gezhi reached out to pick up the crimes on his desk, looked at each of them, took one away, and put the rest in his hand.

"It's rare that there are people who speak the law in the court, so let's talk about the law, General Lian. These crimes are all unmistakable, you don't have to worry about wronging him, and this one." Regarding the king's crime, Yin Gezhi said indifferently: "Let me leave it to His Majesty."

Lian Heng frowned, looked at the pleading papers, and turned his head to stare at Zhao Xu angrily: "Are you worthy of being compared with the Guan family case?!"

Zhao Xu was dumbfounded. He didn't expect that Prince Xiao would come to this kind of place and throw trouble at him again.

"My lord!" He gritted his teeth: "What is the deep hatred between the old minister and the lord that can make the lord hate him so much?!"

He said, thought for a while, rolled his eyes and said: "Could it be because of the case of the Guan family? The prince has a personal relationship with the members of the Guan family, do you want to avenge them!"

Squinting at him, Yin Gezhi slowly squatted down, looked straight at the blood on his face, and said flatly: "You think too much."

"This king just has nothing to do."

He spat blood out of anger at his words, Zhao Xu scolded angrily, "Zhuzi!"

"Yes, I heard it." Standing up, Yin Gezhi turned his head to signal Lian Heng to write the crime: "He insulted the royal family."

Lian Heng: "..."

So that evening, Wei Wendi, who was still recuperating, received a thick stack of charges against Zhao Xu.

With a long sigh, Emperor Wei Wen turned his head and asked Princess Nanping, who was serving the medicine, "Do you also think Zhao Xu deserves to die?"

Nan Ping nodded heavily, and said earnestly: "Father, how can your fame be dragged down by such a villain? Even if he likes calligraphy and painting as much as you, he may not be a good official. Look at the things he has done. The emperor felt terrified when he saw it. In order to calm the anger of the people, it is best for the father to order him to be beheaded!"

With such a step down, Emperor Wei Wen felt at ease, made a decree to the world with great pain, and then sentenced Zhao Xu to death.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!" Zhao Xu, who was being driven on the street in a prison car, shouted all the way: "I was wronged! The royal family is not upright, and the officials are not clear! The royal family is not upright, and the officials are not clear!"

Lian Heng led the guards to escort him, walking in the front, suddenly remembered the scene when he escorted the second young master of the Guan family to the execution ground.

Guan Qingmu inherited his father's strength of character, he didn't say a word all the way, his back was straight, even though he was wearing prison clothes, it was like wearing armor.

Surrounded by the abuse of the common people, he turned a deaf ear to it, and stared at the front with his eyes, but there was nothing in his eyes.

Lian Heng's heart was very heavy at that time, and he really wanted to ask him why Guan Canghai treasoned, but he couldn't ask him.But now, he understands that those who have really suffered great injustice may not even have the strength to cry out for injustice, their hearts are ashamed, and their eyes are full of disappointment with the royal family.

The hand holding the rein tightened, and he suddenly wanted to kowtow to General Guan. Only he knew where General Guan's grave was.

Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly saw Guan Qingyue's eyes disappearing in the crowd.

Lian Heng reined in his horse in shock, and when he took a closer look, it seemed that his eyes were dazzled, surrounded by ordinary people, where did Guan Qingyue come from?

Thinking of the letter he had received but ignored, Lian Heng frowned, and continued to walk forward with a heavy heart.

Fengyue disguised herself and stood outside the execution ground.

This execution ground has appeared countless times in her dreams, and the blood of Guan's family members flowing on the execution platform, old and young, all melted into one place.

Now, the cries on the execution platform are loud, but she feels very comfortable when she hears it.

Finally it's the turn of the old thieves!
