Prosperous Concubine

Chapter 92 The First Talented Woman (2)
"Eradicate the bandits in the cottage, and it was Xiao Shizi and Gouzi who caught their mother and son. It was Mr. Meng who was in charge of the case, seized the cottage, and cleared out the black iron wristband. The bandits never snatched the tribute escorted by General Chen. They have no grievances with General Chen." Why, General Chen, is in such a hurry to convict the mother and son?"

That's right, the mother and son had nothing to do with General Chen, why did he want their lives so wholeheartedly?Is there some secret they don't know?
Seeing the suspicious eyes of all the ministers looking at him, General Chen was startled, and the expression in his eyes changed rapidly. The case of the bandit hijacking the tribute was of great importance. It will be easy.

The bandit mother and son belonged to him, one was a woman, and the other was a child who had just grown up. They were weak-willed, and if they couldn't stand the punishment and recruited him, he would be beheaded by everyone.

In order not to cause trouble to his upper body and implicate his whole family, he decided to kill people to silence them, so he forced the matter of Xuan Tiejun's orphans on the two of them. With the emperor's hatred for Xuan Tiejun, he would definitely close the case quickly and kill the two people. I think the old fox Su Changjing actually ran out and disturbed his good affairs.

"The last general just wants to do his best as a minister and share the worries of the emperor. General Su, don't think too much!"

As the words fell, there was a faint mocking sound in the Jinluan Hall. Young General Su threw away the tribute first, and then made great contributions. Little things are exaggerated, really eager for quick success!

Facing the ridicule, General Chen didn't get angry, but his face softened a lot. It's better to let the officials think that he is eager for quick success than to suspect that he has an affair with the bandits in the cottage.

The emperor looked at General Chen with a calm face, and there was a gleam in his sharp eyes: Su Changjing and General Chen were at odds. Everyone in the court knew it, and he also heard it. These two generals are rare generals. They are loyal to He, he will reward according to his merits, and he will never favor one person over another, but if someone deceives him under the guise of doing good for the country, he will never forgive him lightly!

"I issue an order to quickly investigate the details of the mother and child!"

"I obey the decree!" Amid the shouts of all the ministers bowing their heads and kneeling in unison, the morning court ended!
After leaving the palace gate, Mr. Meng of the Ministry of Criminal Justice took a carriage and hurried to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, preparing to interrogate the bandit mother and son.

They robbed the tribute and involved the Black Tie Army. It can be said that they were daring. The emperor attached great importance to this case and personally confessed that it must be carefully investigated. He must not be sloppy.

The prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice was dark and damp, with bursts of musty smell blowing over the face, choking people coughing again and again, Mr. Meng walked in wearing an official uniform, pinching his nose, he had interrogated the mother and child yesterday, no matter how he threatened and lured him, then The two of them just kept silent.

Today he said he was here for an interrogation, but in fact he just asked a simple question. If they didn't open their mouths and went straight to the punishment, the torture equipment in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment would make people look pale, and he wouldn't believe it, and he couldn't pry their mouths open.

The mother and son are felons, and they are locked in the innermost fine iron cell. As soon as they approached, a strong smell of blood wafted over, and Master Meng's face changed: "Oops, something happened!"

Walking a few steps quickly, he came to the door of the fine iron prison. Through the large gaps in the iron bars, he saw that the mother and child were both lying in a pool of blood. The blood hole on their foreheads was still oozing blood, obviously they had just died not long ago.

On the wall directly in front, a few lines of bright red characters were written in blood: Emperor Dog, you can't take revenge for killing your husband (killing your father) in life, and curse you to go to hell after death!
"They are really the orphans of the Xuantie Army, how pitiful..." Looking at the dying mother and son, Mr. Meng saw the bloody massacre 16 years ago, a sympathy flashed in his shrewd eyes, and he couldn't help sighing, his voice was almost unbearable Hearing this, he immediately regained his shrewdness and said loudly: "The person is dead, let's carry the body out!"

The mother and son have already admitted that they are the orphans of Xuan Tiejun, so there is no need to investigate further, just report their deaths to the emperor, and the case can be closed!

The Ministry of Criminal Justice announced the facts of the case, but concealed the fact that they were the orphans of Xuan Tiejun, and only said that the bandit mother and son robbed the tribute by force, which was an unforgivable crime and ended on its own.

The Qinglong Kingdom is peaceful and peaceful, the emperor is well-governed, and the people have ample food and clothing, and they love him very much. Bandits robbing tribute is a big event. As soon as this heavy news spread, the entire capital city was in an uproar.

General Chen was sitting in the study, listening to the whispers of the servants outside the window, with a weird smile on his lips, and he let out a sigh of relief: Fortunately, he had made preparations early, mixed Xuan Tiejun's wristbands into the stolen goods, and was caught Master Meng found out and successfully pinned the matter on Xuan Tiejun. Once the mother and son died, the clues would be cut off.

Thinking of the black iron wristband, the smile on the corner of his mouth turned cold. In the early morning, he had been staring at the emperor. The moment he saw the black iron wristband for the first time, he could clearly see the shocked coldness flickering in the emperor's eyes.

The Black Tie Army galloped on the battlefield and was invincible. Even after 16 years after they were all killed, just a small piece of wristbands made the emperor of the Ninth Five-Year so shocked. How big is the impact.

Fortunately, they are all dead, otherwise, it must be his confidant's serious trouble!

When the news reached Luoyu Pavilion, Mu Yutang was lying on the bed and reading a book. Hearing the sentence from the Ministry of Criminal Justice, she frowned slightly: The mother and son have been arrested for not a day or two. The crimes they committed are enough to sentence them to death. They knew that revenge was hopeless, and after being caught, they should kill themselves and curse the emperor.

But they died after being exposed as the orphans of the rebellious Black Tie Army. It's not like committing suicide by hitting a wall, but it's a lot like killing people to silence them.

A few days ago, Mu Yunjia was frightened by the head, and went to General Chen's mansion to get the shock medicine. After returning, she looked more dignified and calmed down, and did not come to Luoyu Pavilion to trouble her again.

Mu Yunjia is a gentle and demure lady, she will not come to find a killer in person, she will definitely find the most trusted man to help, Mu Zhen is a civil servant, he doesn't know how to fight and kill, besides, his body is his For his own daughter, he didn't need to pay for it. As Mu Yunjia's uncle, General Chen helped her solve her troubles.

This is the reason why he had no grievances with the bandit mother and son, but he insisted on assigning the identity of the orphan of Xuan Tiejun to the two of them, and put them to death. He was afraid that they would confess him and had an affair with the bandits, but he wanted to copy the whole house chopped...

Wait, have an affair with a bandit!
A coldness appeared in Mu Yutang's dark eyes. This General Chen and Su Changjing had always been at odds. He could bribe the killers in the copycat to chase him down. Naturally, he could also bribe the copycats to snatch the tribute and frame Su Yixuan...

Hehe, no wonder he spoke sharply in the early court, and with a strong attitude, he put the name of traitor on the mother and son. He wanted to kill them earlier, so as not to have more dreams in the night!

The death of the mother and child should have something to do with him!
