Chapter 723 The dead man takes the blame
"Your Majesty, my fool arrested the remaining thieves last night and went to interrogate him early in the morning!" Qin Xiangru said with cupped hands.

Li Shilong was very surprised. The sun came out in the west?

Actually working so hard!

"Your Majesty, I heard that Qin Mo has asked the thief and his concubine to confess. Can you please let me wait for the confession to be read?" Zhuge Sui said.

"Can!"

After Li Shilong finished speaking, Gao Shilian divided the copied confession into more than ten copies.

There are two copies of Qin Mo's confession, one can be made public, and the other is known only to him and Qin Mo.

"What, Duke Zhou was actually killed by his concubine?" After seeing the confession, Zhuge Sui said in disbelief: "How is this possible?"

Gongsun Wuji also looked particularly ugly. This confession showed that the thief concubine was a killer trained by the remnants of the previous dynasty.

Zhou Bi was frail and spent most of the year in bed. These remnants lied about being able to cure Zhou Bi's illness and were invited as honored guests by Zhou Bi.

Even the medicine used was clearly recorded.

The confession said: With the supplement of Wu Shi Powder, Zhou Bi's face glowed red, he was walking as fast as flying in a quarter of an hour, and his appetite increased greatly.

At night, he can even control several girls at night.

Zhou Bi was so happy that he adopted the concubine as his adopted daughter.

Later Zhou Bi presented the thief concubine to the palace and was greeted by Wu Shi. Unexpectedly, Zhou Bi died suddenly in advance.

Seeing this, everyone had complicated expressions.

When Zhou Bi died, although there was no mourning, there is no airtight wall in this world.

Many people still know about this.

But because of the emperor's face, no one dared to say anything.

The confession also showed that Wu Gu was good at making opinions, forcing the Zhou family to delay the birth of the spirit.

Below are the confessions of the Zhou brothers.

Later, the concubine entered the palace and took the opportunity to assassinate him.

This confession was watertight, and there were witnesses, so Wu Shi took the blame.

If Gao Shilian is the hidden form of Daqian, then Wu Tongue is the shadow of the emperor.

You can't say that being tongueless is rebellious, right?

Gongsun Wuji understood that last night's actions might have wiped out all the people on this line.

The so-called pursuit of party members is all false.

It's a good idea to put the blame on a dead man or a eunuch, but you can't find anything to criticize.

Li Cungong smiled.

Okay, in this case, although the Zhou family is guilty of offering their concubine, it will not implicate the King of Yue. Isn't the conviction the intention of the person above?
"Your Majesty, can we come together to interrogate those remaining criminals?"

Li Cungong thought for a while and asked.

"Okay, I've already scolded that brat, you just go ahead." Li Shilong snorted, "It's so unsightly, Xiangru, you have to take good care of it."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Qin Xiangru raised his hands to everyone and said, "Everyone, my child has soul-leaving syndrome, please be more considerate!"

"Your Majesty, now that the truth has been revealed, the crime will be changed. Although the Zhou family's offering of the concubine was an unintentional mistake, it cannot be forgiven." Gongsun Wuji said solemnly.

"Although Zhou Bi is dead, Zhou Mingyue has close contacts with the traitorous concubine, so they should be interrogated!" Cui Youren said.

"Don't you understand what's written in the confession?" Li Cungong frowned and said, "It's very clear that Zhou Mingyue was summoned by the thief concubine, not against her own will. Besides, it was the thief concubine who killed Duke Zhou, because she was the only one who had the title of Duke Zhou. Postponing the funeral for such a thief, even if Zhou Mingyue has no conscience, she will not join her!"

Li Daoyuan also echoed: "The concubine of the King of Yue has a reputation as a virtuous person. Zhou Bi was sick all year round, and the concubine of the King of Yue took care of him at his knees.

From this point of view, the two fathers and daughters have a deep love. In this case, the confession is true and it was really forced by the thief and concubine. "

"I second the proposal!" Du Jingming cupped his hands and said.Neither Liu Chenghu nor Qin Xiangru spoke.

Li Shilong nodded, "Don't blame Lao Ba's concubine for this matter. It's untenable, so as not to make it difficult for Lao Ba.

However, Zhou Bi was indeed guilty, and his father's sin was paid by his son. Zhou Bi's title as Duke of Fufeng County in Daqing was reduced to that of a male from Fufeng County. "

Good guy, he was directly demoted to the lowest title. If it weren't for the sake of the King of Yue, he might not even be a county boy anymore.

"Wu Tongue failed to protect him well. He killed himself in the palace yesterday. I thought that he had no merit but hard work, so I rewarded him with a thin coffin."

Gao Shilian quickly handed over the copied suicide note of Wuji.

After reading it, Gongsun Wuji remained silent. He deserved punishment, deserved death, deserved arrest, and was impeccable.

The incident that could have overthrown Li Yue turned out to be a plot by the remnants of the previous dynasty.

No matter which point it is, it is tenable.

Even if they have questions, they can't ask dead people, right?

"The case has come to light. If you don't have anything to do, please step aside. The deputy judges will go and help Jing Yun with the case.

Zhongshu Sheng issued a document to make this matter public and inform those remnants of the previous dynasty. If they return astray, I can forgive them regardless of their past grievances. "

Du Jingming raised his hand and said, "Yes, Your Majesty!"

He knew how to write this article, emphasizing His Majesty's injuries and his broad mind regardless of past grudges.

If the people know about it, they will definitely support His Majesty even more, and at the same time, it will also make the people hate the remnants of the previous dynasty even more.

"By the way, Your Majesty, there was a fire in Nancheng last night. Ji Gao and others from Zhongshushe were also in the fire and unfortunately died."

Li Shilong frowned and slapped the document angrily, "What do Wuhoupu and the patrolling army do for food? They are trash!"

"Your Majesty, calm down. The fire was so sudden last night, and it was the middle of the night. It is indeed difficult to escape after falling asleep." Zhang Gui, the newly appointed commander of the Forbidden Army, cursed in his heart. What a fool. Not long after he took office, he let him Encountered such a fire.

If it's a fire, let's start a fire. Not a single commoner died, but many officials from the capital were burned to death.

But if he remembered correctly, the people from Liumen were also putting out the fire there, and those Beijing officials
Thinking of this, Zhang Gui trembled all over.

Mom, isn't this Qin Mo's intention to use the fire to eradicate his political opponents?

He didn't dare to think about it or even say it.

Of course Li Shilong knew how they died.

At this moment, he pretended to have a headache and rubbed his temples, "Issuing an edict for a generous burial and a reward."

After everyone left, Li Shilong let out a sigh of relief.

This matter has come to an end here.

Qin Mo did a good job, saving his life, saving his face, and uncovering a traitor.

If not, he really thought that Lao Ba couldn't wait to go to court.

It's just a pity that his fourth child, a good person, became so crazy.

I wanted to call him back, but I thought of how crazy he looked.

That's all, let him recuperate in the Jiangnan courtyard.

At this time, inside the six-door prison.

Qin Mo looked at Shang Wu and said, "Brother fierce man, long time no see!"

"Thief Qin, you deserve to die!" Shang Wu was itching his teeth with hatred, "I only wish I didn't kill you in the first place!"

"What can you say? We are also old acquaintances. Why do we fight each other as soon as we meet?" Qin Mo said with a smile: "Actually, I quite admire you. You are willing to send someone a thousand miles away. No, you are loyal and courageous. You know the mountains and plains." If there is a tiger, go to Tiger Mountain."

"Kill me and give me pleasure." Shang Wu said bitterly: "If I fall into your hands, I will not want to live!"
