The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 2200 Revenge
Xu Zhengqing thought about it carefully, the former Luoyang county magistrate, he was beaten to death by the common people in the Luoyang market last year, and his head was beheaded after he died, because he was involved in the case of the bank in public, colluded with the family, and embezzled the bank Qian Qian, when Qi Guogong left Chang'an, Luoyang was the first stop. According to what Zhao Zheng said, then Zhao Zheng and Qi Guogong did have enmity.

But the county magistrate of Luoyang County also died at his own hands. If he didn't intervene in the bank and embezzle the money of the bank, how could he arouse the resentment of the people in Luoyang and make the people hate him so much that he went to the execution ground? To the point of being stoned to death by the people.

Zhao Zheng's identity was not difficult to identify, all he needed was to send someone to investigate.

But there is another point, Xu Zhengqing is very suspicious.

Although Zhao Zheng is not too young, but ten years ago when Dang Renhong was dispatched, he was a young man under 20 years old. How did you know so many details about Dang Renhong's corruption case?

This is definitely not something he can plan alone, and there must be someone behind Zhao Zheng!

"How old are you this year?" Xu Zhengqing asked.

"Does it matter?" Zhao Zheng asked.

"It doesn't matter much, it's just that I want to ask." Xu Zhengqing said with a smile: "After all, your identity has yet to be verified. I will send someone to Luoyang to verify your identity."

Xu Zhengqing's words are half true and half false.

"26." Zhao Zheng said: "Going to Luoyang can indeed find out my identity."

Zhao Zheng's words, except for concealing some things, the rest are really true, his identity is also true, and his desire to avenge his uncle is also true.

So if Xu Zhengqing sent people from Dali Temple to Luoyang to investigate, they would also find that what Zhao Zheng said was true.

"Does your family know that you are doing this in Chang'an City?" Xu Zhengqing said, "This is also a death penalty for copying one's family and exterminating one's family."

There is no good end to framing a minister, and Zhao Zheng even wanted to play with the emperor in the applause for the sake of framing, which is a serious crime. Once the truth is found out, Zhao Zheng's family will have no way out. Even if the emperor extended his favor extrajudicially, Zhao Zheng would die, and the family members would probably be exiled as well.

"Both my parents died, my uncle raised me." Zhao Zheng said, "Although he is a sinner in the eyes of the common people, he treats me well."

26 years old looks like a person in his thirties. This year, I am afraid that he has suffered a lot, so he became like this. However, if this is the case, ten years ago, he was 16 years old. Xu Zhengqing does not believe that 16 years old At the age of [-], Zhao Zheng knew so much about Dang Renhong's corruption case, the Xuan family, and Qi Guogong's methods of handling the case.

Xu Zhengqing knew the contents of that letter, and Zhao Zhengneng definitely could not find someone to forge that letter, because it was impossible for Zhao Zheng to know the things in the letter, even if he went to inquire about it, he would not be able to find out.

"Do you know the contents of the letter?" Xu Zhengqing asked.

"I've seen it, so I know it." Zhao Zheng said.

"Then where did you get the news from?"

"If you inquire around Chang'an City or even around Chang'an City, you will know. After all, the Duke of Qi is so famous, it's not surprising that the common people only see some stories about him?" Zhao Zheng said.

"Then you are wrong." Xu Zhengqing said with a smile: "The common people are naturally keen to chat about all kinds of news, but the things in the letter are not understood by the common people, so this official concludes that you are behind your back. Someone, the person behind you forged the letter, and let you go to falsely accuse the Duke of Qi through your desire for revenge, you were just being used by others, tell me, who is the person behind you?"

Zhao Zheng was silent again.

"You also said that your parents died when you were young, and your uncle brought you up. Now that your uncle's family is gone, you are alone, and you have no hope of revenge. Instead, you put yourself in it. What are you afraid of? You want to protect the person who takes advantage of your life?" Xu Zhengqing said, "Is it worth it? Do you think that the people behind you have nothing to do with your uncle's death?"

Xu Zhengqing is testing.

Because Xu Zhengqing vaguely felt that there was a shadow of Lai Junchen behind Zhao Zheng's accusation of slandering Duke Qi.

If not, why the timing of his appearance is so coincidental.

Lai Junchen impeached Qi Guogong on the front foot, and Zhao Zheng appeared on the back foot, pushing the matter forward again. If this push is successful, the Xuan family will fall into a state of eternal doom.

It was precisely because of this coincidence that Xu Zhengqing thought a lot, thinking that Lai Junchen would be behind Zhao Zheng.

If it is really Lai Junchen, then Lai Junchen's impeachment of Qi Guogong will have a result.

Planting and framing is not a normal way for the censor to impeach ministers, and the court cannot let this trend go.

"Think about it for yourself. After an hour, I will come here to find you again." Xu Zhengqing said.

Zhao Zheng was imprisoned in the cell of Dali Temple. Xu Zhengqing returned to the hall. An hour later, Di Renjie would come back from the palace. At that time, he had to go to the cell with Di Renjie to see Zhao Zheng.

As for giving Zhao Zheng an hour, he also wanted Zhao Zheng to calm down and think about whether it was meaningful to protect the person behind him.

As for the Qianzhuang case, Xuan Shijing was not the only one who participated in the investigation. If it was Lai Junchen who was behind him, Lai Junchen used much more terrifying means than Qi Guogong in order to get promoted and make a fortune. Qi Guogong only killed a few people At most, they were ordered to investigate the case, but where is Junchen here?Langya Wang's family, Chang'an Zheng's family, these are all bloody crimes.

Lai Junchen is not as good as Qi Guogong.

Xu Zhengqing hoped that Zhao Zheng could think clearly by himself.

Because of this matter, it can already be concluded that it has nothing to do with Qi Guogong. Lai Junchen's impeachment of Qi Guogong was not for the sake of Tang Dynasty, for the court, but for his own selfishness.

"Come here." Xu Zhengqing called out.

The guards of Dali Temple hurried into the hall.

"Master Xu, what are your orders?" The guard said, clasping his hands.

"I'll give you half a month to go back and forth to Luoyang quickly." Xu Zhengqing said, "The former Luoyang county magistrate, if there is a nephew named Zhao Zheng, check it out."

"Yes." The guard replied.

The guards of Dali Temple kept running out for cases. This was already the norm, and they were used to it.
