Prince of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 142

Gao Ming is not a fool, he knows that others will not trouble him for no reason, not to mention that the other party is one of the six dignified books.

At first, when Gao Ming knew the other party's surname was Zheng, he thought it was the Zheng family in Xingyang who blamed him for Zhou Zheng's affairs, but when Zheng Yunyin turned his attention to Li Tai, Gao Ming immediately realized it.

"It turned out that he was going to attack me. I guess he did it because he felt upset after I warned him last time? If that's the case, then the matter is justified."

Thinking of this, Gao Ming took another look at Changsun Wuji.

"However, this kid should have dealt with me without telling his father, otherwise his father would not have stood up to help me. This is a typical cocoon. Zheng Yunyin saw him just now, maybe this is the reason, hum, interesting!"

Gao Ming didn't know Li Tai's identity, so he still thought that Li Tai was the son of Changsun Wuji, but his guess was right, that is, Changsun Wuji didn't know about it.

In fact, Changsun Wuji did trick Li Tai, and at this time Li Tai already felt like he was riding a tiger.

"Damn it, why did this happen? Why did uncle help him?"

Seeing Zheng Yunyin's eyes asking for help, Li Tai didn't dare to stand up.

After all, the most indispensable thing in the court is smart people. If he stood up at this time, everyone would probably contact Duo Si immediately, then this conspiracy against Gao Ming would be exposed immediately, and he would also be in a very unfavorable situation. .

"It seems that I can only abandon the car to save my handsomeness!"

Li Tai has always been a good player at playing abandoned children, and this time is no exception. Seeing Zheng Yunyin looking at him, Li Tai immediately cast him a threatening look. Seeing Li Tai's look, Zheng Yunyin immediately understood.

"King Wei is going to give up on me?"

Zheng Yunyin was not like the officials who were used by Li Tai before. When he knew that he was regarded as an abandoned son, he immediately began to think of ways to protect himself.

"At this time, we can't confess the king of Wei, and we can't continue to offend the prince, so let's admit it. According to the influence of my Zheng family in Xingyang, His Majesty must not be able to do anything to me."

After thinking about this, Zheng Yunyin immediately knelt down towards Li Shimin with a "plop".

"Your Majesty, there is indeed something strange about this case. I was eager to handle the case and was confused for a while. I implore Your Majesty to forgive me!"

Seeing Zheng Yunyin's confession, a smile appeared on Li Shimin's face.

In fact, from the very beginning, Li Shimin noticed that there was a problem with this case, because it was too targeted, and maybe one of them could not be handled properly. Time called Gao Ming over.

According to Li Shimin's thinking, if Gao Ming can't resolve this crisis, then he will find a way to put the blame on Li Goudan, and kill Li Goudan at that time, and Gao Ming will at most carry an "unidentified person" reputation will not have much impact.

But what Li Shimin didn't expect, Gao Ming resolved the crisis so easily, and Changsun Wuji even came out to help him.

"Gao Ming, boy, not bad!"

As an emperor, Li Shimin knew when to be clear and when to be confused, so when Zheng Yunyin gave in, Li Shimin nodded immediately.

"Well, people are not sages and sages, but what you did this time is really inappropriate. You can continue to investigate this case."

"Yes!"

As soon as Li Shimin's words fell, Gao Ming immediately cupped his hands towards him.

"Father, since this case involves my Zhongshu Sheren in the East Palace, I think I should personally participate, otherwise if someone framed me, wouldn't I die unjustly?"

Hearing what Gao Ming said, Li Shimin also nodded.

"Well, what the prince said is also reasonable, then I will leave this case to you and the Minister of Criminal Affairs to investigate together."

"Thank you, Father!"

Seeing that Li Shimin agreed, Gao Ming's face suddenly showed joy.

Although he knew that Zheng Yunyin was being used by others, and he gave in, Gao Ming did not intend to let him go so easily, otherwise others would think he was easy to bully in the future!

And the most important thing is that this is a rare opportunity to attack the Zheng family in Xingyang. At this time, he is taking advantage of it. Even if he cleans up Zheng Yunyin, others will only say that he is out for revenge, and will not think of him because of this. It is to deliberately suppress the powerful and noble families.

There is no doubt that this is an opportunity to kill two birds with one stone!

Seeing Gao Ming's slightly excited eyes, Zheng Yunyin also secretly regretted it. He had a feeling that even if he was a direct descendant of the Zheng family in Xingyang, it was impossible for him to escape unscathed.

"Why did I believe the King of Wei's words by mistake? What are you doing between the Crown Prince and King Wei? It seems that the Crown Prince will not let me go easily. If this is the case, I can only put all my eggs in one basket!"

Thinking of this, Zheng Yunyin's face suddenly flashed a gloomy look.

After coming down to court, Zheng Yunyin left the court in a hurry. Gao Ming was worried that he might be unfavorable to Li Goudan, so he immediately sent a hundred riders to the prison of the Ministry of Justice to fetch Li Goudan out.

To Gao Ming's surprise, the person he sent was not blocked by anything, and Li Goudan was picked up smoothly.

The only shortcoming is that Li Goudan does look a bit miserable, with many bruises and bloodstains on his body and face, it seems that he must have been tortured to extract a confession.

When he saw Gao Ming, he immediately burst into tears with a "wow".

"His Royal Highness, I didn't betray you, they made the bet according to my hand, you have to trust me, woo woo woo..."

"..."

Gao Ming knew that Li Goudan was a soft bone, so Gao Ming only believed half of what he said, but seeing him crying so sad at this time, Gao Ming didn't want to hit him again, so he patted him on the shoulder with a smile on his face.

"Believe it, how could I not believe you? Come on, stop crying!"

Having said that, Gao Ming raised his chin towards the servant sword next to him.

"Shi Jian, go get ten guan coins to buy something for Mr. Li to eat!"

"Yes!"

Seeing Shi Jian go to get the money, Li Goudan suddenly showed a smile on his face, but after thinking about it, it seemed that he should cry again at this time, so he rubbed his eyes again.

"Thank you, Your Royal Highness, woo woo woo..."

"Well, it's okay, go back when you get the money, go back and take a shower, then sleep well and you'll be fine, continue to collect protection fees tomorrow morning!"

"Yes!"

Li Goudan left, with a contented expression on his face when he left. Gao Ming guessed that after getting the ten pennies, he felt that the beating in prison was worth it.

After lunch, Gao Ming planned to go to the Ministry of Criminal Justice to settle accounts with Zheng Yunyin, lest others treat him as a soft persimmon, but before Gao Ming left the palace, a hundred knight guards came to Gao Ming in a hurry in front of.

"Report to His Royal Highness, Wu De's wife, and the assistant who was in charge of Wu De's autopsy yesterday afternoon are all dead!"

Upon receiving this news, Gao Ming's eyes suddenly widened.

"Both of them died? How did they die?"

"According to the scars on their necks, they should have been strangled to death with a rope!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Gao Ming's eyes narrowed immediately.

"This is murder!"

The name Wu De was cleverly remembered. This person was said to have been beaten to death by someone sent by Li Goudan. The machine climbed onto himself.

In order to achieve this goal, the other party probably bribed Wu De's wife and coworker. As long as this matter becomes a big deal, all unfavorable evidence will point to Gao Ming.

But what Zheng Yunyin didn't expect was that Gao Ming didn't play cards according to common sense at all, and there was Changsun Wuji helping him in the court, and Wei Wang Li Tai saw himself as an abandoned son when he saw that the situation was not good, so these backhands didn't Use it to come in handy.

Now that Gao Ming had decided to personally participate in this case, Zheng Yunyin was in a hurry. In order to prevent Gao Ming from discovering any clues, he simply made a quick move to kill Wu De's autopsy and Zheng Yunyin's wife.

After thinking about this, Gao Ming shook his head in amazement.

"Ruthless, really ruthless! This move is really too ruthless, but Zheng Yunyin, do you think it's really useful if two people play chess and flip the board if they don't win?"

Having said this, Gao Ming's eyes narrowed immediately.

"Come on, bring me Hegan Chengji!"

"Yes!"

Under Gao Ming's order, He Gan Chengji rushed to the East Palace with his fastest speed, and then cupped his fists at Gao Ming.

"The subordinate is late, and I hope His Highness will forgive me!"

Seeing Hegan Chengji's excited expression, Gao Ming immediately understood what he was thinking.

"This guy probably thinks that after Li Goudan is arrested by the Ministry of Criminal Justice, he can replace him? If so..."

Thinking of this, Gao Ming immediately let out a long sigh.

"Hey... Li Goudan is too careless to do things, Aki, you can't learn from him!"

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Hegan Chengji immediately knelt down on one knee, and then cupped his fists towards Gao Ming.

"His Royal Highness, don't worry, your subordinates will live up to His Highness's trust!"

Seeing Hegan Chengji's appearance of "swearing allegiance to the death", Gao Ming smiled and nodded, then raised his hand towards him.

"Well, I just have something to ask you to do, get up!"

"Yes!"

After Hegan Chengji got up, Gao Ming walked around on the spot with his hands behind his back, and then turned his head to look at Hegan Chengji.

"I met someone this morning because of Li Goudan's matter. The other party is the Minister of the Ministry of Criminal Affairs. I just received news that the other two people involved in this case are dead. You go and investigate for me. I will give you three days Time, check it out, and I will guarantee you a position that will keep you safe."

Speaking of this, Gao Ming immediately turned around, with his back to Hegan Chengji.

"If you can't find out, you don't have to come back to see me, go!"

When He Gan Chengji heard this, he immediately showed a serious expression.

"Yes, my subordinates retire!"

After finishing speaking, he stood up and hurried out. When the sound of his footsteps disappeared completely, Gao Ming turned around with a smile on his face.

"Exercising both kindness and might is the way of imperial servants!"
