Tang Dynasty good brother-in-law

Chapter 301 Wei Zheng in Prison

Liu Mu took out the dishes, and Wei Zheng said after seeing the dishes, "I can't afford these with my salary. The fresh vegetables in winter are more expensive than gold and silver. These meals are worth more than a penny at least."

"I know you are from a poor family, and so am I." Liu Mu poured wine for Wei Zheng.

Wei Zheng knew that this was the top quality wine, Xifeng, and he poured down a big cup full of one or two in one gulp, his face blushed instantly.

Wei Zheng opened his mouth and said, "When it comes to being black and merciless, who is more ruthless between you and me, you don't need to say it out loud."

"Hehe." Liu Mu laughed a few times: "I just came to visit me and asked you something. If you want to answer, tell the truth, and if you don't tell the truth, don't answer."

"Okay." Wei Zheng agreed.

"Are you from the king of Qi, or from the prince?" Liu Mu approached Wei Zheng and asked in a low voice.

Wei Zheng's already slightly red face turned pale in an instant.

Liu Mu nodded: "Your face has already answered, it seems that I guessed it right. Alright, drink."

Wei Zheng pressed his cup: "I'll trade you a question for a secret. It's the same as when you asked me."

"Don't do it, just as I can tell the answer from your reaction, you can also tell from my reaction. And the question you asked must be terrible." Liu Mu drank to himself, but refused.

Wei Zheng said: "In the fourth year of Wude, His Royal Highness King Qin attacked Luoyang, and His Royal Highness King Qi was also with the army at that time. There is a record in the military scribes that His Highness King Qi led troops to ambush and captured Le Renfang alive. The later record is that Le Renfang Seriously injured and died in prison.”

"You mean, this Le guy knows some secret about Wang Shichong, and now this secret is in your hands?"

"It's easy to talk to you, you're right. His Royal Highness Qi knew this secret before, but now only I know. Wang Shichong knew he was going to lose and wanted to escape, but he still wanted to make a comeback, so he hid many treasures in Shaolin Temple No one thought that those thieves wanted to swallow this treasure, so they turned back and helped His Royal Highness King Qin."

Liu Mu believed Wei Zheng's words.

First of all, the two armies are fighting with tens of thousands of people fighting, so how can a mere temple decide the battle situation.

And Li Shimin is a very cautious person, it is impossible to go to a dangerous place alone, even if he goes to check the enemy's situation, the guards around him are definitely better than a group of monks.

Then, Shaolin Temple may at most lead the way, or open the city gate, or provide information.

Wei Zheng continued: "The merit of those thieves at that time was that they responded internally. Wang Shichong occupied a place in Shaolin called Baiguwu temple property to garrison, and there was an important road there, that's how it is."

"Interesting, really interesting. I think Deng Fu Yi will be so excited that he won't fall asleep when he hears the news."

"I've already told you the secret, can you answer a question for me." Wei Zheng asked.

"I know what you want to ask, so I still don't agree to you. However, we can make an agreement. If no one rescues you next spring, I will get you out in return for the secret just now. As for this secret Don't worry, those bald donkeys are guarding a piece of red-hot iron."

Willow is confident.

Wei Zheng admired Liu Mu's self-confidence, and what Liu Mu said this time was right, the treasure was the red-hot iron.Once it is exposed, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty will flatten the Shaolin Temple, and none of them will live.

"It's really sad to have money that you can't spend. Let's go, and I'll see you again in the New Year." Liu Mu got up and patted his body twice, still muttering: "Take a pat, get rid of bad luck."

Wei Zheng smiled, not to mention the food in front of him in prison, even if he was in Chang'an at this time, he might not have it.

When Liu Mu came out of the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, the young man in Huafu was beaten all over his face, but he didn't hurt his muscles or bones.You will see Liu Mu coming out, pointing to Liu Mu: "You dare to report your name, Chang'an City does not have a family of sisters, one is Mrs. Guo, and the other is the famous family of Wangfei. What happened today will not happen."

Liu Mu ignored him, and walked up to the paralyzed cell leader: "Do you know why I didn't beat you?"

"No, I don't know."

"First of all, you are an official, and you receive the salary from the imperial court. Secondly, I have a good relationship with Mr. Liu. If you hit you, you will not give Mr. Liu face. I think Mr. Liu will beat you. This is called discipline, not beating."

After speaking to the jailer, Liu Mu came to the gentleman in Huafu: "Remember, my name is Liu Mu. My eldest brother-in-law is Duke Huguoyi, and my second brother-in-law is King Rencheng. If you don't even know this, you don't know." He deserves to call himself a nobleman of Chang'an."

After Liu Mu finished speaking, the young man in Huafu was still in a daze.

Based on his knowledge of Chang'an City, it was completely unclear whether what Liu Mu said was true or false. He had just arrived in Chang'an not long ago, and he was still far away from the top aristocratic circles.

It was Liu Mu, who thought that the nobles in Chang'an City were still so ignorant.

Looking at the cell boss again, he passed out straight up.

The cell boss was frightened, but he knew that Liu Mu didn't need to rely on his brother-in-law for support at all, and his back was very hard.

Less than half an hour after Liu Mu left, in the main hall of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, Liu Zhenghui, Minister of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, knew what happened before the prison.

"You mean, it's the rule that the prison boss breaks first. Liu Mu was about to leave, but he beat someone after seeing someone send money to the prison?" Liu Zhenghui asked those who knew about it.

After receiving an affirmative reply, Liu Zhenghui was very angry.

But he also understood that Liu Mu was still saving face for himself, and he didn't move a finger of the jailer, who was scared faint by himself.

As for Liu Mu and Wei Zheng, Liu Zhenghui didn't want to think too much about it, and he didn't even want to know that Liu Mu went to meet Wei Zheng in prison.

In the evening, Prince Qin's Mansion.

Li Shimin ran for a day and went to the residences of many old courtiers and celebrities to send winter condolences on behalf of the Tang emperor.

As soon as he returned to the mansion, he saw two people kneeling in the snow in the front yard of Prince Qin's mansion.

"Who?" Li Shimin asked.

A housekeeper stepped forward: "Your Highness, this is the end of the household affairs, the situation is like this..."

After listening to the butler, Li Shimin's fatigue disappeared instantly, and he couldn't stop laughing.He waved his hands: "That's all, that's all. Let the two of them go back and tell them that the king doesn't care about such trivial matters. Prince Liu probably forgot about this important matter. Well, give me some rewards and let them go."

The household department thanked him three times, and then he was grateful for leaving Qin Palace.

Outside the gate of Prince Qin's mansion, the younger brother of the concubine from the household department, that is, the young man in Huafu who Liu Mu beat up, said: "Sealing salt is a felony, don't expect a light sentence. This time you are too. Learned the lesson, let's be more careful in the future."

"Yes, yes."

The Ministry of Accounting looked at the young man in Huafu again: "Go back to the accounting office and get [-] yuan. You deserve the beating this time. In a few days, I will go to Sanyuan to plead guilty to Concubine Liu. I hope I can see him."

"Why, why?"
