Chapter 745: Conspiracy

Zhao Zhen's eyes dazzled, and saw Chen Ao rushing over and raising his hand to hit him. Zhao Zhen had never suffered this loss before, and at this time he reacted very quickly. He hurriedly hugged his head and took a few steps back to hide.

This was an instinctive reaction, but in this hiding, the guards of the Duke's mansion blocked the door couldn't help but retreat aside. Zhao Zhen was both angry and anxious, just blamed himself for not being able to do his best and actually lost face in front of so many people.

At this time, Chen Ao shouted loudly: "What are you waiting for! Go in and search for me. Who dares to stop me and take it down immediately. It is the remnants of the rebellion. The criminal instigated people to beat people and was not someone else, but the chief minister of the current dynasty. Even the chief minister dared to fight, which was almost the same as rebellion."

"Abide by the order!" The lieutenants made a concerted effort and rushed into the Duke's Mansion like a tide. The guards of the Duke's Mansion wanted to stop him, but they did not dare. Just now, King Pingxi said clearly. The remnants of the rebellion, such a big hat, King Pingxi would probably die in vain if he killed him on the spot.

In addition, these lieutenants are fierce and rushing into the tide like a tide. Who has the courage to stop them?

Zhao Zhen was hit by several lieutenantly and wanted to say something angrily.

Chen Ao looked at him coldly at this time and said coldly: "Duke Qin, the prince's crimes are the same as the common people's crimes. What is the relationship between hiding the unrest? I believe that the Duke of the Lord is clearer than this. Please think about it yourself."

Chen Ao walked into the Duke Mansion without saying a word. For a moment, the entire Duke Mansion was in chaos. The eunuch who was ruthless with the power of the people shouted, and was immediately slapped by the captain and shouted: "Kneel down!" So there was a group of people kneeling in the main hall. The captains went to search the gardens and the attics, and occasionally there were screams from the little maids, making the atmosphere even heavier.

Chen Ao wandered around the mansion. It took him half an hour before he saw several lieutenants coming over with an old man wearing a Confucian shirt. He knelt down in front of Shen Ao, and reported, "Your Highness, the criminal Zhang Ming has brought him."

Chen Ao looked down at Zhang Ming and said coldly: "Raise your face."

A captain grabbed Zhang Ming's jaw and lifted his face up. Zhang Ming seemed to have grown ten years old all of a sudden. No matter what, he would never have imagined that the King of Pingxi would rush into the Duke's Mansion to get people. He was full of frustration. His Adam's apple rolled a little and wanted to beg for mercy, but he thought, sooner or later, would he die. Wouldn't he lose his face when begging for mercy? Then, just show some character.

He snorted heavily and glared at Chen Ao.

Chen Ao asked lightly: "Is it you who instigated someone to try to assassinate Yang Zhenyang's sect?"

Zhang Ming argued: "It's not assassination, it's beating."

Chen Ao smiled grimly and said, "Do you dare not recognize it? But there will naturally be places where you recognize it. Where is your accomplices, and who are there, let me be honest. The person who comes will take the rebels to Jingzhao Mansion immediately." He remained calm, his tone increased a little, and continued, "I will invite the officials of the Ministry of Justice and Dali Temple to be tried, and officials from various ministries and courts called to listen to him, and I would like to send a message to Lord Yang and ask him to come to the palace to meet him, and then said that the person who assassinated the chief minister had been found."

Chen Ao turned out and Zhang Ming was startled. He thought that even if he took it, he would beat Yang Zhen. Although it was very disturbing, he had a little bit of royal relatives and it was okay to save his life. However, when the tone of the King of Pingxi seemed to be trying to kill a chicken to warn the monkey, and he wanted to assassinate the prime minister. Assassination of the prime minister was different from instigating Yang Zhen for venting personal anger. The former had a premeditation, while the latter was just a private revenge, which was equivalent to venting anger and venting anger and placing it on the treason. If it was true, it would be the crime of circumcising the house and extermination of the clan, and even his daughter would be affected.

Chen Ao went out expressionlessly. Seeing Zhao Zhen still standing and trembling in the doorman, he thought to himself, after all, he was still a young man with no hair. When he encountered something, he panicked. He ignored him and went straight out of the Duke Mansion, turned over and said, "Follow me to Jingzhao Mansion."

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

The news leaked quickly in Bianjing City, not to mention the fact that the lieutenant rushed into the Duke of Qin's Mansion. When the various departments heard this, they looked frightened and talked a lot.

Then someone took the name of King Pingxi to various tribes and called people. When they heard that they were going to Jingzhao Mansion for trial, many of them turned pale. They thought that Yang Zhen was finished, but now it seems that the situation has reversed again. The Beijing Camp is afraid that the trouble will continue, and maybe even more trouble will be even bigger. Originally, King Pingxi was still behind the scenes, but now he is standing at the front desk. With the prince's character, can this matter be given up? Yang Zhen was dismissed from office, and this King Pingxi dared to kill people.

The prince invited him, who dared not to obey? He was informed of it, and even the official duties were temporarily put aside. He called the clerk to give him a few instructions, and immediately prepared a sedan chair to Jingzhao Mansion.

Jingzhao Mansion was full of solemnity, and all the officers went to the side and replaced them with real swords and guns. Teams of lieutenants patrolled the swords and looked around outside. When people saw it, they felt a little chilling in their necks.

The official sedan stopped far away at the intersection of the street, blocking a whole street. Only at this time can you realize that there are many officials in Bianjing, and people from various departments, halls and temples have come. From second-rank officials to seventh-rank officials, none of them have been pulled down. Everyone else comes. If you don’t come, what does that mean? The King of Pingxi likes the most is that he will revenge his grudges. He likes to make small accounts and wears small shoes for others. If he offends him, he will be dismissed from office.

Many people gathered together, hesitating whether to go in, and looked at each other with deep meaning. In the end, some people gritted their teeth and stepped in. Everyone entered one after another, which was even more solemn and dignified than when they were in court.

When I arrived at the lobby of Jingzhao Mansion, I found that many people didn’t even have a seat. Only a few big guys could enjoy it. The rest of the people who were third-rank and fourth-rank were all had to stand. There was a lieutenant with a knife on this side watching you, as if he had become a decent official suddenly, which made people feel very uncomfortable.

When Quartz and Zhou Zheng and his men came in, many people gathered around him. Even those who were not very close to each other, they greeted him warmly. In fact, more people just wanted to pry out some news from Quartz and Zhou Zheng. After all, it was really a terrifying thing to invite King Pingxi. There was no accurate letter. Who knows what result would be in the end of this trial?

Quartz and Zhou Zheng just smiled, and the last sentence was beyond words.

As they said this, everyone was even more worried. They stood aside thoughtfully, and couldn't help but sigh in their hearts. In the past, when the Taishi was there, everyone hated the Taishi's illegality, but as long as they were willing to endure it, they could finally live a life. Now that they have changed to Yang Zhen and the Western King, this life is getting worse and worse day by day.

Just as he was thinking about it, someone suddenly said outside: "Celebrating the criminal!"

Hearing this sound, everyone calmed down. After a while, the two lieutenants rushed in with Zhang Ming. When everyone looked at Zhang Ming, they suddenly felt sad when the rabbit died. Many people sighed, as if they saw themselves in Zhang Ming.

Zhang Ming's clothes were pretty clean, and he obviously did not suffer any humiliation, but his expression was extremely poor. The escort who was escorting behind him shouted and knelt down. Zhang Ming's legs were bent involuntarily. Seeing so many colleagues there, he didn't know how bitter it was. A good official, now that he was in this situation, he couldn't even tell the difference between resentment and regret.

The judges from Jingzhao Prefecture, the Ministry of Justice, and the Dali Temple were also here, and there were three people in total, but these three people really had no airs of judges. If they had not been on the shelves, they would have refused to come. The three of them sat down, but they still refused to start the trial and were still waiting patiently. A stick of incense passed, and a voice came late: "The King of Pingxi is here."

Scratch... Scratch... Scratch...

The sound of horse boots came from outside, as if more than a dozen people were pausing together. The sound was getting closer and closer. Every pausing sound was filled with an inexplicable oppression, which made everyone's hearts rise into their throats.

Under the gaze of everyone, Chen Ao came in with a dozen lieutenants with swords. He held his hands, his face was cold and handsome, and his eyes were wandering in the hall. Everyone he saw immediately lowered his head.

Chen Ao took a few steps forward and said slowly: "Today I call you to examine a shocking case. At the foot of the emperor, someone instigated someone to assassinate the chief assistant. Such things, from the Three Emperors and Five Emperors to the Sui and Tang Dynasties, to the founding of the Song Dynasty for a hundred years, are unheard of. Who is so brave and have any intentions, and how many accomplices they have, we must examine it clearly today, otherwise, today will be assassinated the chief assistant, and next time we will assassinate the emperor."

Chen Ao said carelessly: "I have heard that the criminal is actually a marriage with the prince..." He showed a playful smile on his face and continued: "Originally, one person commits a crime, and does not involve relatives. But this fact is too great. Whether the princes are involved is still unknown..."

Having said this, everyone couldn't help but gasp. Zhang Ming was even more like a pig's liver. Qiqi said aloofly: "It's all... it's my fault, and it has nothing to do with the Duke of Qin."

Chen Ao shouted, "No relationship? No relationship, why does Qin want to hide you? No relationship, why does Qin Duke's Mansion prevent the servants from entering and searching? According to my king's opinion, not only has relations, but also has great relations. Qin Duke has three brothers, one is King Fu, one is King Tang, and the other is Duke Xu. Hum... This matter will sooner or later be revealed, and it is useless for you to make any arguments."

Everyone present couldn't help but sweat coldly. If you really want to bite this kind of thing, it might be earth-shaking. At that time, Zhang Ming would be punished. Once he was scolded, he would involve four princes. Do the four princes still have accomplices? Who are the accomplices? Is there still fewer officials who have dealt with the four princes? Once they are involved, they will involve thousands or tens of thousands of people.

Zhang Ming really regretted it at this time. He thought it was just a relief. But he didn't know that not only would he have to get in, but he might also have to get in with Duke Qin. He said dejectedly: "Your Highness is my only relationship with you. Please..."

Chen Ao interrupted him: "Do you naturally find out what you are?" He found a corner and sat down, and said in a deep voice: "Search."

The officials of the hall did not dare to say anything, immediately raised the gavel, and said with a bang, "Who is in the hall?"

Zhang Ming was so scared by Chen Ao's words just now that he was so impressed. Some of the words he had thought of earlier had been thrown out of the sky. Qiqi Ai Ai said: "Zhang Ming, a grass man."

"Zhang Ming, do you know your guilt?"

Zhang Ming hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded, saying, "The people of the country know that they are guilty."

"Well, what crime did you commit?"

Zhang Ming said: "Caomin instigated someone to beat the door and ordered Lord Yang Zhenyang. This matter was done by the villain alone. It was the money paid by the villain, and agreed with them..."

Chen Ao shouted angrily: "Don't argue, you, a slut, dare to do such a thing? Who is the person behind you?"

Originally, the judge thought that Zhang Ming had answered so happily, and he just wanted to close the case in a hurry and not involve him. However, after King Pingxi asked this, they knew that the mud was not good, so they slapped the gavel and said, "Your Highness is right. You are a small civilian, how can you dare to assassinate the chief minister of the dynasty. Tell me, who ordered you!"

Zhang Ming was so scared that he was sweating profusely and said quickly: "Xiaomin swears to the sky, no one will instruct him."

The lords who were hearing the trial were already frightened. The King of Pingxi was really a man who was afraid that the world would not be in chaos. God knew how many people would die if a Beijing Chamber caused such a problem. Many people who were close to the four princes were already trembling with their lips and their legs trembling. They were really a little crying without tears.

The hall official glanced at Chen Ao, and Chen Ao sneered. The hall official knew it and had to say angrily, "At this time, do you still dare not to attack? Do you know where this place is? Since you have invited you, do you still want to deny it? Come on, take it down and beat it!"
