After being reborn, I became a scumbag and his aunt

Chapter 207 Give Poisoned Wine (Part [-])

Zhao Chengyuan said in a low voice, "This kind of speculation is universally applicable. If you are the third or fourth prince, you can also rely on it. As long as there is no evidence, if you say he is, you can always find out a few reasons. If you say he is not, you can find several reasons.

Just like what the emperor said just now, the crown prince is doing something radical at this time, there is no need to take risks at this time.So can he be ruled out?It still depends on what the emperor thinks. "

Emperor Qingming looked at the calm and calm young emperor in front of him. He was only [-] years old and had never been involved in government affairs, but he himself had never understood him.

He never seems to hide his thoughts, he is frank and indifferent, but also seems to be unfathomable, people can only see what he wants to show.

I thought he was going to attack the prince, but he was just trying to excuse himself?
Emperor Qingming stared intently, "You said that it applies everywhere, but these murderers are still a few in the royal family. If we don't find out, how can I feel at ease? If we don't deal with it strictly, it will deter the world and let our emperor be majestic." where?"

Zhao Chengyuan said lightly, "Then my brother said that he is not from the royal family. Just like Marquis Yongping."

"Marquis Yongping?"

Zhao Chengyuan got up and walked slowly.

"Marquis Yongping's house has been ransacked now, and Zhaoping's life experience has been exposed, so there is no good thing for Miss Han to pardon him when she becomes the princess. Next, they will beheaded or exiled, which is the same as the fate of the crime of treason. The difference is not too much. Since it is already a hopeless situation, can Marquis Yongping take the risk to win, let the big week change, and find a chance for himself?"

Thinking appeared in Emperor Qingming's eyes.

"Hou Yongping was already in prison at that time, how capable is he to control the outside world?"

Zhao Chengyuan laughed, "Brother Yongping is probably the one who knows best about Marquis Yongping's ability. Not to mention that he can destroy the Chen family, and organize the pursuit that makes the Weixing Escorts overwhelmed. The Crown Prince, Dali Temple, the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of War, the ministers and the Duke of Ding attacked him at various levels. If it were someone else, I am afraid that he would have died many times. But he can live well. With his ability , How difficult is it to communicate with the outside world?
What's more, he was able to persuade Brother Huang several times to let you show mercy to him, which is not something ordinary people can have.If someone becomes curious one day, he might be able to pry out some tricks to manipulate the government and control the emperor's heart from him. "

Emperor Qingming lowered his head in deep thought.

I don't know what he thought of, but his face suddenly changed, "Wu Jian, let King Chengjun come in!"

Wu Jian agreed and left the imperial study.

King Cheng came in soon.

He walked to the low couch, cupped his hands and saluted, "Your Majesty."

Emperor Qingming asked, "Someone sneaked into the Imperial Prison two days ago, what's the situation?"

King Chengjun reported, "Back to the emperor, those two thieves were jailers who pretended to deliver food to Marquis Yongping, and they had tokens in their hands, so they deceived the guards guarding the gate. If it wasn't for the lowly position, they just went over to inspect, look at that The two cross-examined a few words, and I'm afraid they will succeed. They were both seriously injured when the matter was revealed, and they committed suicide on the spot."

The imperial edict is directly in charge of the emperor, and the Imperial Forest Army acts as an agent. The Dali Temple, the Ministry of Punishment, and the three legal departments of the Procuratorate have no right to intervene.

But the cell where Marquis Yongping lives is that even the Imperial Forest Army has no right to interrogate him.

There is only a special person to deliver meals to him every day, and the two go together.

Apart from Emperor Qingming himself, the only ones who could get in touch with Marquis Yongping were these two jailers who delivered meals.

Emperor Qingming asked, "Have you found out the details of those two people?"

Chengjun Wang said, "Go back to the emperor, I found out, they are the guards of Yongping Houfu, and they are all first-class masters."

Emperor Qingming didn't pay much attention to this matter at first, and minor prison robberies happened from time to time, but they never happened successfully.

When King Richeng reported to him, he didn't even listen carefully, but let him handle it by himself.But he didn't expect that he was going to Yongpinghou.

Is this the first time they've come in, or have they done this several times?
The veins on the back of Emperor Qingming's hand holding the chess piece bulged, and his face looked like a summer evening rainstorm was approaching, a strong wind suddenly picked up, and black clouds rolled over the city.

He got up from the low couch, walked quickly to the dragon case, and found the memorial presented by Zhao Chen, on which the red pen wrote three words: give poisoned wine.

He threw away his ink pen, "Wu Jian, you and Prince Cheng..."

He paused, got up and said, "Go and prepare poisoned wine, I will go in person."

Wu Jian bowed his promise and withdrew.

After less than a quarter of an hour, Wu Jian came back with a jug and a wine glass on a tray.

Emperor Qingming stretched out his hand to invite Zhao Chengyuan, "Seventh brother together?"

Zhao Chengyuan smiled and said, "The younger brother still has to pay his respects to the queen mother, so I don't want to watch such a bloody thing."

"Alright."

The two left the imperial study and went in different directions.

The prison is heavily guarded.

Emperor Qingming asked Chengjun Wang and Wu Jian to stay outside and went into the dungeon alone.

The dungeon was damp and smelly, with a sickening smell of blood.

Emperor Qingming walked through the long tunnel and came to the end of the dungeon. There was a single prison cell, with a dark and thick wooden fence separating the inside and outside.

Yongpinghou sat upright on the messy haystack with his eyes closed.

In just half a month, he was already described as thin, with messy beard and hair, covered with grass clippings.But his face did not have the decadence and panic that other people in prison should have, and his expression was calm and peaceful.

Hearing movement, he slowly opened his eyes.

When he saw who was coming, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly, and the gleam of determination flashed across his eyes.

He got up slowly, moved his feet and walked slowly towards the door, and the shackles rattled.

Walking to the fence, with tears in his eyes and full of affection, he knelt down and kowtowed heavily, and shouted in a deep voice, "Your Majesty!"

Emperor Qingming looked at him indifferently, "Aiqing is flat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Marquis Yongping choked with sobs and thanked En, and when he got up again, tears were streaming down his face.

"It's the guilty minister who betrayed your trust, the emperor. He didn't care when the money was handled, but... the guilty minister is loyal to the emperor. If the emperor is short of money someday, the guilty minister will definitely give it all without blinking." Just take a look!"

Emperor Qingming said, "I am very clear about your loyalty."

Marquis Yongping supported the fence, weeping loudly, "With the words of the emperor, even if I die immediately, I will have no regrets."

Emperor Qingming said indifferently, "Is this really true?"

Marquis Yongping was startled.

Isn't this a scene phrase commonly used by courtiers to express their loyalty and touch?
Shouldn't the emperor reply at this time, "Don't talk nonsense, Ai Qing", why should he ask "this is true"?

Of course it can't be true!

He replied in a deep voice, "Really!"

Emperor Qingming turned his hand behind his back to his front, dragging a wooden tray with a jug of wine and a wine glass in his hand.

Marquis Yongping's complexion suddenly changed, and he looked at Emperor Qingming in disbelief.

"Your Majesty! Do you want to give death to your minister?"
