Chapter 419

When Ji Shuo returned to Beijing, he didn't expect that he would be arrested like this, and he was taken to the East Palace without any explanation. He was still baffled, but he saw Xiao Qitai and Ji Shuo who were also kneeling outside the main hall of the East Palace. I also understand!
The matter was revealed, and before they could even make a move, they were already controlled by the prince who had insight into the opportunity.

He came back from Shanxi this time. Chen Dechang is an old fox, and he will not send troops until he sees the effect. That's why he wanted to come back to the capital at this time to help Duke Huai in the uprising. Planted first.

Xiao Qitai knelt on the ground with his hands propped up, his head was covered in cold sweat, his face was pale, he probably estimated that he was not far from death, the prince called him over, and asked him to kneel before he said anything On the ground, and then, he heard Pei Tao send someone to collect the net at the gate of the city and arrest Pingyang Marquis Ji Shuo. Duke Huai understood this, but unfortunately, it was too late.

If the crown prince would do this, it meant that he already had ironclad evidence in his hand to convict them, which was irrefutable. Only then did he understand what it meant that he was blocked outside the palace these few days and could not see the queen. The queen at this time He must have been controlled by the prince. Xiao Qitai regretted such a moment of effort. He regretted that his ambition was too great. You must know how insignificant the ambition of a weasel is in front of a cheetah. The cheetah doesn't even have to do anything. , you can clean him up to the point where there is not even a hair left.

But he is not reconciled!It is precisely that unwillingness that made me to this point.

After Xiao Qiyu finished handling the official documents, he asked Pei Tao to call them in. In the study room, the incense was lingering, but King Huai and Ji Shuo could not feel the slightest elegance. asked a question:
"Master Ji has been working hard recently."

Ji Shuo's back stiffened suddenly. From the corner of his eye, he glanced at Duke Huai, who was also stiff, before he knelt down on the ground, daring not to say anything.

At this time, Pei Tao sent a stack of letters to Ji Shuo. Ji Shuo didn't know why, so he took the letter with trembling hands. The bright red seal on it made Ji Shuo's eyes hurt from staring. It's the seal of his general soldier in Shanxi... This Chen Dechang, double-faced and three-faced, is basically a trap. He used these evidences to crucify him step by step. On the surface, he was planning a big event with himself, but secretly, he secretly communicated with the prince. Turn around and sell him!
The matter has come to this point, the Ji family is completely over, with Chen Dechang's testimony, he has no way to refute it no matter what, he can only bow his head and plead guilty, begging for mercy, but when the words come to his lips, he doesn't know what to say.

"minister……"

Xiao Qiyu raised his eyes and looked at him, then put down the notebook in his hand, and after reviewing it with a cinnabar pen, he said to him: "Get up if you are convicted, and put it in the prison for trial. Let the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple go to the trial." , close the case for me as soon as possible."

Ji Shuo couldn't believe that he was sent to the Ministry of Punishment just like that. The prince didn't even have a reason to be held accountable. It can be seen that he knew everything about him these days, and he didn't need to repeat it. It turns out that everything he did was done by himself. Everything that was thought to be secret was watched in the eyes of the prince. He was stupid, really stupid.

Being greedy enough, he got on Duke Huai's boat, originally thinking that the Marquis of Pingyang was in ruins, and it would be impossible to recover if it wasn't for his great achievements, so he followed Duke Huai to do the beheading business, thinking that Duke Huai was the queen's son, On weekdays, he had the support of the Empress, so he thought he had some power, but now he realized that those so-called powers of Duke Huai were nothing more than duckweed. No wonder those generals met him when he went to Beimo He didn't even see him, and he wasn't even allowed to enter the barracks. At that time, he should understand that the matter was no small matter. If he was willing to rein in the precipice and return to the capital, at most he would be a useless minister for the rest of his life. However, there is always peace in the world.

Ji Shuo's arms were pulled up abruptly. The more he thought about it, the more unwilling he became. He knelt down in front of the prince again and kowtowed several times. His forehead overflowed with blood. Ji Shuo said:
"Your Highness, everything is caused by the obsession of the minister and ghosts. I beg you to punish the crime of the minister alone. Don't drag down the family's wife and children. Even if the minister is hacked into pieces, I will have nothing to say. I just ask the prince to let the Ji family go."

Xiao Qiyu raised his eyes to stare at Ji Shuo, and snorted coldly: "When you did this thing tied to your trouser waist, why didn't you consider the Ji family? Go down. Everything has a law, and I definitely didn't ignore it for you alone." The principles of the king's law."

This is the meaning of refusing to forgive, Ji Shuo slumped his shoulders in despair, he was about to pass out as soon as his head became hot, and he was dragged by two people to the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

After Ji Shuo left, only Xiao Qiyu and Xiao Qitai were left in the huge hall, kneeling and sitting, but they didn't communicate much. Xiao Qiyu read the brochures, drank tea, ate snacks, and didn't care about the kneeling one below. people.
