The Great Han Dynasty: From Feng Lang Juxu to the Eternal Emperor

Chapter 516 Suspicion of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty walked into the prison with his hands behind his back, looked at Wang Zhen lying in a pool of blood, and twitched the corner of his mouth.

He glanced at Liu Huan indifferently and left the Criminal Department without saying a word.

Liu Huan was silent for a long time, then kicked the Minister of Justice in the stomach: "Damn you! Are you a fool?"

"No one can watch it!"

"You knew he was an important criminal! He died like this? Are you, the Minister of Punishment, a pig? Are you a pig?"

Liu Huan was really furious!
Wang Zhen's death was enough to overturn all his previous remarks, and it was enough to make Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty suspect that he was retaliating against Wei Ning!
It’s all because of Wang Zhen’s death. Now Liu Huan has no way to defend himself!

The Minister of Punishment looked aggrieved. Who knew he would die like this? Besides, you didn’t ask us to take good care of him.

Didn’t you just leave after getting the confession?
Didn’t you also expect that Wang Zhen could commit suicide? Why are you blaming me now?

Liu Huan was furious, knowing that it was useless to say more now, so he anxiously stepped forward to chase Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

Weiyang Palace.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sat alone in his study, closing his eyes and thinking.

He is now becoming more and more suspicious and has to doubt Liu Huan's purpose and the authenticity of Wang Zhen's previous confession.

Wang Zhen died inexplicably. Could it be that Liu Huan deliberately silenced him? He had previously fabricated false evidence to frame Wei Ning?
All the logic here does not make sense. How could Wang Zhen confess casually? No matter how stupid he is, there is no way he would say that it was because of the darkness of my rule that he gave up his throne to the prince.

If this person was from Weining, would he say such things to frame Weining?

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty squinted his eyes. Not long after, Liu Huan came over in a panic and knelt down.

He was now fully awake, and he felt more and more that Wang Zhen's confession was a little suspicious!
This beast! He framed me on purpose!
I actually took it seriously!

Liu Huan was now extremely upset, but he kept kowtowing and said: "Father, you believe me, I will never dare to tell lies."

"Wang Zhen personally confessed."

"The few people I brought over were all listening. They can't do anything fake!"

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty said coldly: "The few people you brought here are yours, so they will naturally not cheat."

Liu Huan had cold sweat on his forehead and said hurriedly: "Father, my son does not dare to tell lies, and my son does not dare to betray his father!"

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty stared at him and said, "Which wandering Taoist priest is he talking about? How could Prince Wei reveal my whereabouts to him?"

Liu Huandao: "This, this, we will know if we catch Prince Wei."

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty laughed angrily, "Really? Does it suit you to capture Prince Wei?"

"Are you plotting against me too?"

"You also thought that I was old and useless, so you started plotting against me, right?"

Liu Huan was so frightened that he didn't know what to say. He just said stupid things like arresting Weining.

Only now did he realize that he had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly explained: "Father, I am in a hurry, and I will listen to my father in everything."

"Father, please forgive me for talking too much."

The hall fell into silence. Liu Huan only felt a knife hovering over his head, and cold sweat had wet his back.

The atmosphere was so oppressive that he couldn't breathe.

I don't know how long it took before Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty said: "Go and summon Prince Wei to me."

Liu Huan hurriedly said: "I obey the order!"

After leaving the Qilin Hall, Liu Huancai gasped for air. He was really frightened just now, and now he can breathe.

He hurriedly ordered the people around him: "Go to the East Palace and bring Prince Wei here, quickly!"

"Here!" Wei Ning was also thinking on the way here. He still didn't know what method Gongsun He used.

At such a sensitive time, Qi Bin did not dare to give information to him at will. Without outside information, Wei Ning would be deaf and blind.

He didn't even know what Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was summoning him for, so he could only act accordingly.

Not long after, Weining arrived at the Qilin Hall. As soon as he entered, he felt that the atmosphere was a bit depressing.

Liu Huan stood aside, not daring to raise his head.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sat on the futon with his eyes closed and no expression on his face.

Wei Ning cupped his fists and said, neither humble nor arrogant, "My lord, please see your majesty."

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty slowly opened his eyes, stared at Wei Ning, and said: "My assassin has been caught."

Weining didn't speak, and his expression was calm.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty saw everything in his eyes and continued: "Wang Zhen said that my rule is dark and he wants me to give up to you, so he wants to kill me."

Wei Ning still listened expressionlessly.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty stared at Wei Ning and said, "Don't you have anything to say?"

Wei Ning shook his head and said, "I have nothing to say."

"There are many ways to harm a minister, so it's not surprising."

When Liu Huan heard these words, he felt complacent, but Weining didn't take it seriously.

If Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty really doubted himself, why bother asking himself these words?
This Wang Zhen should be the person arranged by Gongsun He. Wei Ning admired Gongsun He's methods. He knew that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was suspicious now, so he poured all the dirty water on Wei Ning. This would make Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Doubt the authenticity.

There are means!
Liu Huan stood aside uneasily. Listening to Weining's answer, he realized that there was still a big gap between himself and Weining!
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty looked at Wei Ning and said, "Do you think Wang Zhen is harming you?"

Wei Ning nodded and said, "Yes, he intended to trap me into disloyalty and unrighteousness."

"I live in seclusion in the East Palace. I don't know how I offended him. Maybe he is a pure Confucian scholar with a simple mind. I don't know. Let the Ministry of Punishment investigate everything."

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty asked calmly: "He also said that you ordered someone to leak my whereabouts to Wuliang Taoist Temple to pray for blessings."

Wei Ning said helplessly: "It depends on what my father thinks about this matter. Where can anyone get out of the East Palace now?"

"Every word and action is under the control of the Detective Division."

"How can I pass on information to Wang Zhen?"

"Ten thousand steps back, how can I know when His Majesty will leave the palace?"

"I am not His Highness the King of Jiaodong."

Liu Huan said angrily: "Prince Wei! Don't slander me!"

Wei Ning said calmly: "I just said it casually, why are you so excited?"

"Do you know that His Majesty's whereabouts are not just yours, but also those of the three provinces and six ministries?"

Liu Huan took a deep breath. He was fooled again and was angered by Weining's words.

Liu Huanqi's face turned livid.

Wei Ning asked Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty: "If your Majesty is suspicious of my son, just investigate carefully. The Detective Department and the Criminal Department are so capable that they will definitely be able to find clues."

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty looked at Wei Ning seriously for a while and said, "I understand."

"Go down."

Wei Ning cupped his fists and said, "My son, please retire."

After leaving Qilin Hall, Wei Ning smiled slightly. Gongsun He's methods were so powerful that Wei Ning couldn't help but applaud and praise him!
