late Qing Dynasty

Chapter 83
"Mei Shuang, don't tell me 'my lord, it's not good', your lord, I still want to kill Liu Ye severely." I said foolishly.

"My lord, it's really bad." Mei Shuang said in a panic.

I picked out my ear and asked her, "Mei Shuang, don't make a fuss, I just want to have a peaceful lunch now."

"Oh! My lord, it's really bad. Some people reported that your lord wants to usurp the court, and even found anti-poetry in your study!" Mei Shuang said eagerly.

"What!" I slapped my chopsticks on the table and stood up angrily, "Who brought people to search the Tang Mansion?"

"My lord, it is Zhu Yuanhong, Admiral of the Nine Gates." Mei Shuang replied.

"This is an obvious frame. I haven't written a pen since I came back from the Rehe Palace. Since when did I have an anti-poetry! What a nonsense!" I was so angry.

"Let's go, I will go back with you and have a look. Where does this Zhu Yuanhong have the guts to mess around in the Minister's House of Military Aircraft?" Yi Xin said, and had already left.

I immediately followed and stopped Yixin, "Master Liu, let me handle this matter. If you go, those people will criticize behind your back again."

"My king is sitting upright, and I'm afraid they will criticize me! Let's go!"

Yixin was filled with more righteous indignation than I was, making me seem like a supporting role. Seeing Yixin like this, I calmed down my anger.

When they arrived at the gate of the Tang Mansion, they found that there was indeed a huge battle. The gate was full of officers and soldiers, and some people were searching inside.

At this moment, what I'm actually worried about is not some conspiracy to usurp the throne, but Chen Yucheng. This kid is still in the mansion, and there are not a few people who know him. If he is found out, it will be no fun.

"What's going on? Who gave you the guts to search the mansion of the Minister of Military Aircraft!" Yi Xin went into a rage as soon as he arrived.

Zhu Yuanhong, who was searching inside, rushed out immediately, and bowed to Yixin, "I will see the Sixth Prince."

"You are so brave, don't you want your head! How dare you commit an offense and search the mansion of the Minister of Military Aircraft!" Yi Xin reprimanded Zhu Yuanhong sharply.

Zhu Yuanhong looked like he was in his 40s, probably because he had been an official for many years. Under such circumstances, he was still calm and answered Yixin unhurriedly.

"Returning to the sixth master, the lower official has just received a report from the servants of the Tang family, saying that Mr. Tang intends to rebel and has colluded with Chen Yucheng, the leader of the long-haired army. This matter is of great importance, and the lower official can only be killed first and then played." Zhu Yuanhong said. Confident and confident, it is obvious that he has already made sufficient preparations.

It's just that I don't have any impression of Zhu Yuanhong, the Admiral of the Nine Sects. There shouldn't be any grievances between us, why would he stand up and frame me in such a good way.

Behind this, someone must be instigating, this Zhu Yuanhong is just a gun.

Yixin's papers were just handed over. First, the horse was frightened. Now, in less than a day, I was charged with a major crime of plotting to usurp the throne.

They have worked so hard!
It is not difficult to imagine that we have touched the interests of certain people by doing so, and these certain people also include those important officials of the imperial court.

"A servant of Tang's mansion? Because with just one servant, you can search Lord Junji's mansion! How absurd! This king ordered you to withdraw your troops immediately, and choose a day to come to Master Tang's house to apologize!"

Yixin was obviously trying to help me, and in this way, he fell into their trap. They hoped that Yixin would collude with me, so that we could kill two birds with one stone.

"Sixth Master, I'm afraid this is not possible. The officials have found evidence of treason in Mr. Tang's mansion. According to the laws of the Qing Dynasty, they must be imprisoned first and wait for the officials to report to the emperor and queen mother before making a decision." Zhu Yuanhong replied neither humble nor overbearing. .

He really wasn't even afraid of Yixin. Thinking about it, the strength of the person behind this was also extraordinary, and he was able to drive his majestic admiral of the Nine Sects.

"presumptuous!……"

"Sixth Lord, please be calm and don't be impatient. Since Mr. Zhu has found evidence, let's take a look. If the evidence is convincing, I am willing to accept the investigation."

I interrupted Yixin because I hoped that he would not get involved. In case I was sent to prison, he could find a way to save me, but if we all went in, we would have to escape from prison.

"Sorry, Mr. Tang, I'm sorry that I can't produce any evidence yet. After the ministers report to the emperor and queen mother, the emperor and queen mother will make their own decisions." Zhu Yuanhong still did not let go.

Judging by their appearance today, they have made up their minds to kill me.

"Well, if that's the case, then please."

I passed by Yixin, gave him a sneaky wink, and told him not to be too fussy, and the most important thing is to protect himself.

In this way, I was taken by them to the legendary prison in the capital. It is said that only high-ranking officials can be imprisoned here, and Sushun also walked out from here.

It is a great honor for me to visit here, and it is not in vain to visit ancient times.

I sat in the prison, meditating quietly, thinking about their purpose. They tried their best to catch me, and they definitely wanted to kill me all at once.

The so-called report to the emperor and queen mother is just an excuse.

So, to sum up, they want to get rid of me secretly in the prison, and then give me another person to commit suicide in fear of guilt, or find a scapegoat to make a fuss.

Isn't this what those high-level people often do?

It's just pity on my stomach, I haven't eaten Yixin's good wine and food yet.

I was sitting in the prison complaining, when I suddenly heard a surprised voice from the cell next to me, "Zhongzheng! It's really you!"

I turned my head to look at that person, the light was very dark, I couldn't see clearly, but with the faint light, I could see that the person's clothes were messy, his hair stood up like straw, and his thin body was nothing but skinny.

Although I can't see his specific appearance, I can be sure that I don't know this person. The Zhongzheng he said must be the Zhongzheng before I came here.

I walked over slowly and tentatively asked, "Are you..."

"Why, you don't know me anymore? I'm Qin Huaiyuan!" Qin Huaiyuan looked excited.

I hid my doubts and pretended to be suddenly enlightened, "Oh, so it's Brother Qin, why are you here? You made it like this."

I don't understand the situation, so I can only follow his words to see what's going on.

Qin Huaiyuan sighed, and sat on the ground melancholy, "Don't you find it strange that I suddenly disappeared?"

He asked me back, how did I know what was going on, so I could only deal with it vaguely, "What happened, why did you suddenly disappear?"
