Emperor Zhenguan

Chapter 386 The evidence is irrefutable
There was a time when Mingguang armor, crossbows, and even horizontal knives were absolute secrets of the imperial court.In addition to the state of war, only the elite soldiers of David's army can be equipped with these weapons.

Ordinary people, or people without the permission of the imperial court, if they own the imperial court's standard crossbows and armor without authorization, it is tantamount to treason.

In the former Sui Dynasty, the second generation of powerful people blamed civilians. What they liked most was to hide the bows and crossbows of the Weifu army in civilians' homes, and then lead people to search them out.

In this era of cold weapons, the lethality of crossbows is beyond doubt.

Now Dou Jing told Dou Kang that he was secretly making kerosene, which completely shocked Dou Kang.

If bows and crossbows are weapons that cannot be leaked, then kerosene is a weapon that cannot be touched.

Every time an expedition is made, the emperor's approval is required before the Ministry of Industry will hand over the kerosene to the soldiers and horses to take them out to deal with the enemy.

The reason is that the lethality of kerosene is too outrageous, far exceeding the power of kerosene that people knew before.

During the several wars in the Tang Dynasty, the kerosene created by Li Zhiyun has already proved its incomparable value.Therefore, whether it is to prevent the leakage of kerosene production process or to prevent kerosene from falling into the hands of criminals, kerosene is absolutely controlled by the imperial court.

"You are crazy!"

Snapped!
Dou Kang slapped Dou Jin's face with his backhand, causing the latter's cheek to burn and hurt.

At this moment, Qian Jiulong's voice came from outside the carriage.

"Master Dou, what happened?"

"Nothing." Dou Kang replied with a livid face.

Outside the carriage, Qian Jiulong was riding a horse, a trace of sarcasm flashed across his face, and he didn't continue to ask questions.

Dou Jing was slapped and remained silent.

Dou Kang asked, "Why did you do this? Isn't the lesson from the case of being framed and hidden the crossbow last time not enough? Are you going to kill Mrs. Dou?"

"I never thought about it that way." Dou Jing replied stubbornly.

"Then why did you do this!" Dou Kang tried his best to suppress his anger, not wanting to draw Qian Jiulong's attention outside.

Dou Jing pursed her lips, and explained: "I originally only planned to make some casually, sell them to merchants from the Western Regions, and defraud them of their money. I didn't think about other things at all. I was wronged."

"Fart!" Dou Kang said: "If the court really finds out about kerosene this time, do you think His Majesty will think you have been wronged? The kerosene is originally used to control weapons, and the court does not allow anyone to touch it. Violators are equivalent to Rebellion, how dare you!

I. I'm really going to be mad at you.I want a knife, I will stab you hard! "

Dou Kang was so angry with this stupid brother that he could vomit blood. He said angrily: "My Dou family has a great business and is not short of money. Why are you so greedy? Do you want to kill us!"

Dou Jing was taught a lesson and said angrily: "If there is something, I will do it myself!"

"You bear it?" Dou Kang sneered, "If you die, His Majesty can spare Dou Shi, you'd better die quickly!"

"Brother?" Dou Jing looked at his brother in disbelief, not believing that his own brother who had always taken care of him would say such a thing.

Dou Kang and Dou Jin's father is Dou Rongding, and they are brothers.

Dou Kang sat on the ground dejectedly, and said dully: "You idiot, you don't even know about Dou's current situation in court, and you're still doing something wrong, how can you ask me to protect you?"

After the death of King Qin, the power of the King Qin family fell apart.As a result, the interior of Guanlong was split, some people followed the Dou family, some followed the Dugu family, and some joined the Yu family.

How could the Guanlong family, which was split into three, speak for the Dou family in the matter of rebellion.

And he showed his favor to the prince, but he has not really connected with the prince.Then again, even if the crown prince has contacted him, the crown prince is still banned from the East Palace.

Dou's present in the court hall is no longer as grand as it used to be.

If something like this happens, if it is leaked, Dou Jing will die at the least, and Dou Shi will die with him at the worst.

Although he didn't think that Li Yuan would eradicate the entire Dou family, the Dou family would definitely suffer heavy losses this time.

"You'd better pray that the court didn't find anything." Dou Kang said coldly.

The old Patriarch entrusted him with the burden of being the Patriarch, but he didn't expect something to go wrong so soon.

Dou Jing bit her lip and said nothing, and entered the imperial city in fear.

Lizheng Hall.

The five prime ministers, the five ministers, the minister of Dali Temple, the order of Chang'an, and some officials involved in the case are all in place.

When Dou Jing saw Wu Zhen, the servant of the Ministry of Industry, kneeling in the Lizheng Hall, his whole body was like a deflated ball, his steps were heavy, and he wanted to turn around and run away.

Lao Li looked at Dou Kang viciously, with murderous intent written all over his face.

Originally, he was not happy about Dou's changing family to the prince. He felt that Dou's bottom line was very unscrupulous.King Qin's bones are still cold, you turned around and leaned towards the prince so quickly, are you sorry for King Qin?

Now knowing that Dou Jing was secretly making kerosene made him even more angry.

What does Dou want to do?
Rebellion!
"Chen Dou Kang, pay homage to Your Majesty."

"Greetings, Your Majesty." Dou Jin's lips trembled.

Everyone looked at them with playfulness and a hint of sarcasm.

Li Yuan didn't ask them to get up, but looked at Li Zhiyun, "King Chu, come and tell Prime Minister Dou what happened."

"Yes."

Li Zhiyun leaned back, walked out of the row, and looked at Dou Kang.

"Mr. Dou, a few days ago, Qingpi fought fiercely in Beili and burned Yiyangfang. The king was ordered to inspect. The county government, despite the joint efforts of the three parties, still burned for three days and three nights, and nearly [-]% of the houses were destroyed.

After investigation by the king, dozens of cans of unburned imitation kerosene were found in the dark room of Dou's granary in Yiyangfang.The person in charge of the grain store and his servant, after interrogation, confessed that Dou Jing asked them to imitate kerosene.

In addition, according to their confessions, the king arrested Wu Zhen, the servant of the Ministry of Industry, and under the torture of the saint himself, he had admitted to stealing kerosene for Dou Jing.

Prime Minister Dou, the control of kerosene has long been strictly ordered, but now Dou Jing privately manufactures kerosene, which is a heinous crime and should be executed according to the law.In addition, kerosene is a weapon of the imperial court, and imitating it without authorization is tantamount to treason.

Mrs. Dou, want to conspire against evil? "

Li Yuan felt that his son's words were soft and harmless, so he shouted angrily, "Dou Jin, what do you want to do, rebel!"

"injustice"

Dou Jing just wanted to say that he was wronged, but Chen Shuda interrupted him and said: "Dou Jing, don't rush to say that you are wronged, Wu Zhen, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, has already confessed, and the person in charge of Dou's granary in Yiyangfang has also confessed. , and His Royal Highness King Chu also found imitation kerosene.

Witnesses and physical evidence are all there. What are you wronging?
Who wronged you? "

Dou Jing was speechless, her body trembling uncontrollably.

Yes, all the evidence was there, and he couldn't refute it at all.

Even Dou Kang has nothing to say at this moment, everything has been investigated clearly by the king of Chu, how can he refute it?

Chen Shuda went on to say: "Your Majesty, since the case of secretly hiding the bow and crossbow last time, I thought that the Dou family would change their past and do good, but they never thought that they would never repent. This time they dared to imitate kerosene, it is a heinous crime.

Forgive me for being bold, Dou Jing dared to hide imitation kerosene in Yiyangfang this time, who can guarantee that he will not hide kerosene in the palace next time. "

Hearing this, Li Yuan's face was so foul-smelling, it was extremely ugly.

"Chen Shuda!" Dou Kang shouted angrily, "Don't talk nonsense!"

"I'm talking nonsense?" Chen Shuda sneered, "Then tell me, is the imitation fire oil from Dou's Granary in Yiyangfang real?"

He hated Dou Kang very much, he changed his family before King Qin's bones were cold, he was far more damnable than the enemy!
Facing Chen Shuda's questioning, Dou Kang really wanted to say that it had nothing to do with Dou, but he looked at Wu Zhen, the servant of the Ministry of Industry who was kneeling and trembling on the ground, and the confession books scattered on the ground, plus the cans of imitation firewood. Oil.

When the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back.

The evidence is overwhelming, he is irrefutable!
