Chapter 356
"Your Majesty, when I visited the disaster-stricken area in Huzhou City and appeased the victims, I was chased and killed by a group of killers pretending to be victims of the disaster, and almost died because of this. A few days later, I was assassinated by a group of killers dressed as the 'Naishui Palace' killers. , The man in black was attacked on the way back to Beijing, and was even attacked by a masked killer on the way into the palace yesterday."

While speaking, Tuoba Lin glanced in the direction where Zhou Tao was standing, his dark eyes were as deep as a pool, and there was a faint chill in his eyes, and he said: "According to Wei Chen's investigation, the disaster area outside Huzhou city pretended to be a disaster victim. The person who chased and killed Weichen was a member of the Cao Gang. After investigating step by step, he found that the head of the Cao Gang and Zhang Huaide were brother-in-law and brother-in-law. At first, Weichen thought it was Prince Rui who wanted to kill Weichen, but after investigation, Zhang Huaide once had a relationship with Weichen. During the holidays, because of the provocation by someone with a heart, they instigated the leader of the Cao Clan to send killers to hunt down Weichen, and this provocateur, Weichen, has been found, and he is Yan Shaoqing, Deputy Commander-in-Chief!"

"Your Majesty, I'm wronged, Wei... I really don't know what's going on." Yan Shaoqing heard Tuoba Lin mention her name, her feet softened in fright, and she knelt down on her knees, tremblingly said: "This minister is also instructed by the Eighth Prince to do things. It is he who asked this minister to instigate Zhang Huaide's resentment towards Prince Yong. As for his intentions, this minister is not clear."

Hearing this, Emperor Wu Cheng's expression darkened, he looked at Tuoba Zhen, and asked solemnly: "Old Ba, what do you have to say?"

In fact, when Tuoba Lin was in danger for the first time, he sent someone to investigate the matter, and he also found Zhang Huaide who was hunted down at that time, but he was also instigated by someone, but he found out who chased him. Originally, he saw that Tuoba Lin had nothing to do, so he imprisoned Zhang Huaide, intending not to pursue the matter any more, but Tuoba Lin had accidents one after another, he had to face up to this matter.

It is good for people to be aggressive, but if they mutilate their siblings for their own self-interest, that is not tolerated by the law of the country. This is also the reason why he appointed the crown prince so early in the first place. He just didn't want to see their brothers hurt themselves and kill themselves. .

Tuobazhen's face paled and he quickly reacted, stood up, cupped his hands and said: "My Majesty, I don't know what Vice President Yan said, and I didn't order him to do anything."

"He lied!" Yan Shaoqing immediately retorted: "Your Majesty, the eighth prince lied, please judge clearly!"

Emperor Wu Cheng frowned, and before he had time to speak, he heard Tuoba Lin say: "Your Majesty, whether the eighth prince is lying or not, it will be clear when the witnesses of the humble officials come to the palace, including who is the man in black who assassinated the humble minister yesterday?" sent."

Emperor Wu Cheng agreed.

However, when the guards escorted the three celebrity certificates to the palace, Zhou Tao's father and son, Tuoba Lin, and Tuobazhen's complexions paled instantly, with incredible eyes written in their eyes.

Especially Tuoba Lin, looking at Tuoba Lin with sharp and dark eyes, seemed to be carrying countless swords, trying to cut him off piece by piece.

Because, among the three people in the hall, one is Changchun, the son of Zhan Shichangde in the prince's mansion, the other is Zhang Huaide who he thought had been assassinated by someone he sent earlier, and the other is dressed in Jianghu but can't hide his evil spirit. He had never seen him before, but he knew from the expressions of Zhou Tao and his son that this person was known to them, and it was probably related to the person he sent to assassinate Tuoba Lin.

Zhang Huaide did not die, so he had already seen through his plan, otherwise, when he was seriously injured and fell off the cliff in the refugee area of ​​Shanghai City, how could he recover so quickly?Unless he had expected this to happen a long time ago and prepared in advance.

So when he came back from the cliff, he didn't report the matter to the emperor, and then stood still. Once he found out that there was something wrong with Yang Liwan, they in the capital would definitely prevent him from coming back, so he started to set up a situation. To harm him, then the Zhou family and he may have a way to avoid this disaster, otherwise, it will be like today's ending.

He knew before that Tuoba Lincheng's mansion was deep, but he didn't expect it to be so deep that it was frightening!
***

Outside the Jinluan Hall, Concubine Yan waited until her neck grew. It was almost noon, and she saw no one else come out of the hall except for two guards carrying a stripped King An out of the hall.

I don't know what's going on inside?
Later, I saw the guards leading three men in. For some reason, the family members or attendants who were guarding outside began to panic.

"When I went to have a urination just now, I heard that Prime Minister Zhou was accused and many ministers were implicated. What should I do? It seems that all the adults in my family were involved."

"So serious? What crime did you commit? Is there any news about my master?"

"The specific situation is not clear, but you still have to be mentally prepared, because the emperor is furious inside, and anyone who has a little friendship with Prime Minister Zhou will be involved."

……

Although standing some distance away from those people, Concubine Yan could still hear what they said clearly, and was filled with joy that Zhou Tao and his son finally paid the price for what they did.

Feng Yunxi moved over quietly, and whispered in her ear: "Of course, the Zhou family and his son have been questioned, and for what they have done, they will go to the bottom of the prison if they are not beheaded, but don't be too happy, prove it No evidence of your uncle's rebellion has been found yet, and if they are dead, it will be even more difficult for you to find."

"Yes, I know." Concubine Yan nodded.

"There is one more thing I forgot to tell you, or if you look there, you might find it." Feng Yunxi lowered her voice and said, "Listen to what my father said, there was a terrible plague in Beichuan City three years ago, At that time, Zhou Tao's second son, Zhou Jingliang, took office there, and Zhou Jingliang was unfortunately infected with the plague. At that time, your second brother was sent there by the emperor to treat them, but Zhou Jingliang was already very serious at that time, and there was no way to recover."

"Second Brother Yan gave up on treating him. Zhou Tao always thought that Second Brother Yan did it on purpose, because not long ago, Zhou Tao participated in your uncle's book, and he thought it was your second brother's public revenge."

Hearing this, Concubine Yan's eyes suddenly turned extremely cold, "So he holds a grudge and framed my uncle for treason?"

"I don't know if that's the case, but my father said that Zhou Tao has a very small mind and likes to hide people behind his back. He has long been jealous of your Yan family for your uncle's military power and wanted to replace him. Once your Yan family fell, he That's the biggest beneficiary, isn't it?"

At this moment, there was a commotion at the gate of the hall. Zhou Tao and his son, with loose hair, were escorted out by two guards like madmen. Behind him was a group of people, who were also escorted by the guards.
