Chapter 484: Confrontation

"The emperor is like this, but he has broken the minister. The minister only wants justice."

"Well, I know, you go back first."

This time, the father and son did not dare to be "shameful" any more. No matter how they cried and comforted him, it was useless. Bai Xueshi supported his father. In fact, after kneeling for so long, he was not much better than his father. , trembling and unable to stand up at all. After suffering so many crimes, but not achieving the expected results, I don't know how I will feel.

Emperor Lecheng watched, and asked the servant to step forward to help him up, and then send him back to Bai's house.

After waiting for the others to leave, "The Governor of Xuanjing Zhao, the Minister of Dali Temple, and the Minister of Punishment will enter the palace immediately." Emperor Lecheng opened his mouth and said, and sat back behind the plan, and continued to read the book, but his current state was naturally impossible to see. Going in, he threw the book to the side, his whole body was full of irritability, depression, and anger.

However, "Your Majesty, it's already very late, do you want to pass the meal?" A servant came out tremblingly.

Because of Bai's father and son, Emperor Lecheng didn't miss the time for dinner. In the previous situation, he was obviously not in the mood to eat.

Emperor Lecheng rubbed his brows, "Let's pass it on." He moved directly to the side hall, "When the three Aiqings arrive, bring them here."

The servants all breathed a sigh of relief, glad that Emperor Lecheng didn't attack them.

And Li Hongyuan walked out of the palace with a cold face. On the way, he could feel the swish swish from a distance, and no one dared to approach, because it was already dark, and sometimes he couldn't notice it. When they came, they all stopped and turned, and they couldn't escape. They quickly backed away, stood or knelt, didn't dare to breathe, and were extremely respectful.

Li Hongyuan walked straight over, completely ignoring these people.

Ignoring it, it's definitely a thousand times ten thousand times better than being noticed.

Li Hongyuan walked out of the palace and boarded the carriage, and his exposed emotions disappeared in an instant.

However, he didn't speak, and the carriage could still stay where it was.

Because Bai's father and son left shortly after him, although they were a little slower because of the inconvenience of movement, they were carried out in a sedan chair. When they learned that the carriage of Prince Jin's mansion was still there and did not leave, both of them couldn't help but fight. After a shiver, I always felt that it was not very wonderful, and I always felt that I had provoked someone who shouldn't be provoked.

When the two got off the sedan chair, they happened to see that the curtains of Li Hongyuan's carriage were pulled open. Because the lights were not lit in the carriage, it was impossible to see what was inside the carriage. However, they always felt that there was a pair of beasts inside. Eyes, shining in the darkness, dormant like hunting, and their father and son are the prey he is staring at.

The inside of the knee was already painful to the bone, and now it was absolutely soft. If it wasn't for being supported, I would have fallen to the ground like this. I have long heard of Prince Jin's splendid reputation, and I have seen his methods of rectifying people on some occasions. However, I have never come into contact with him, and I have never personally experienced his methods. Now I have a really terrifying feeling. .

"Go home."

Li Hongyuan's emotionless voice came from the carriage, and the driver in front of the carriage immediately raised his whip.

Looking at the carriage that went farther and farther, the father and son both had different degrees of regret in their hearts. However, having lost their only grandson (son), how could this person be sensible.

When Li Hongyuan returned to Prince Jin's mansion, Jingwan had already prepared a meal for her. She was not surprised that Li Hongyuan came back so quickly. Anyway, this kind of thing was something she was accustomed to.

Because he already knew it, Jingwan was not worried, and some of Li Hongyuan's emotions were for others to see. When facing Jingwan, he couldn't do anything bad, and he could do whatever he should.

At the same time, the governor of Jingzhao, the minister of Dali Temple, and the minister of the Ministry of Punishment had arrived in the palace three days ago. Although they had already left the office, the emperor summoned him and fell asleep in the middle of the night, so he had to get up quickly. Entering the palace, what's more, they already knew about the incident today.

Emperor Lecheng asked them to have a meal together, regardless of whether they had eaten or not, they had to sit down, thank Lord Longen.

Emperor Lecheng was in a bad mood and ate some hastily. He stopped his chopsticks, and the other three stopped their chopsticks.

Emperor Lecheng wiped his mouth and threw the veil away, "Compared to what you guys know about today's matter, I will give you three days and I want a satisfactory result."

It stands to reason that the Jingzhao House should have taken over the first time a person died. However, Li Hongyuan did not let anyone report the case. The Bai family took the body back and did not intend to report the case. Li Hongyuan investigated his own internal problems, and the Bai family did not want to report the case. Just thinking about letting Emperor Lecheng do justice is too sad and too angry, maybe he "forgot".

Emperor Lecheng is just a matter of one sentence. The following three people have a headache, because they didn't take over at the first time, and there are many places in the middle that are afraid that there will be faults. , These are all very important, and it is still unknown whether these people are still alive. After all, the masters of these people are going to be killed, which is a matter of one sentence.

However, no matter how much Xi Lili complained, he could only accept it with his mouth.

In fact, all smart people know that this is nothing but a coincidence. One, it is a coincidence. The boy of the Bai family has blood mold. If everyone else is fine, he will die. It is to use the hands of the Bai family to deal with Prince Jin.

If it is the former, the Bai family will definitely not give up and bite Prince Jin to death. This is not what the emperor wants to see. If it is the latter, then who will be calculating Prince Jin? In fact, the scope is still there. It’s not too small, take it for granted, it’s definitely not easy to check, those related people will appear again

Casualties and injuries are even more difficult to investigate, and the final result is also not what the emperor would like to see. Of the two, the latter is far more likely than the former.

And even if it's the latter, if it's not the case for Cha, the Bai family must still bite Prince Jin to death without saying anything.

More importantly, to satisfy the emperor, then what is the emperor's satisfaction.

To put it bluntly, this kind of thing should not be put on the spot to investigate, in the end, the emperor himself determines.

Jing Zhaoyin and the Minister of Punishment may still have some concerns, and some procedures are afraid to go through. The fifth Taiqing of Dali Temple, when faced with a case, is notoriously upright and unscrupulous.

Because of the special circumstances, Mr. Bai's funeral has not yet been done, and the Bai family has not even hung up the white flags. Naturally, no one will come to the door to express condolences. In this case, he must not have been buried yet, but he has been cleaned up and put on decent clothes. From the outside, it doesn't seem too scary.

In fact, the people who went to Zhuangzi with Mr. Bai were indeed killed by Mrs. Bai Xueshi, who was furious and could not find a way to vent. They were not allowed to collect the bodies of their relatives and friends, and were directly thrown into the mass burial mound. Hastily buried, it is of little value in itself, but people and things related to them still need to be carefully investigated.

Fortunately, the people who belonged to Prince Jin have not yet done well. On the contrary, they wanted to commit suicide, but they did not die.

The suspicious points on Mr. Bai's body should also be investigated, so an autopsy is necessary.

There is no peace in death. How could the Bai family allow it? It is not allowed to cry.

When other people were in trouble, Dali Siqing just ate the weight of the iron.

The Bai family wanted to gnaw at him, their eyes were poisoned, and the fifth Taiqing didn't flinch, "As long as this official is still in this position for a day, it must be businesslike, and Bai Xueshi doesn't need to look at the book like this. Official, if you really don't like this official, you can go to the emperor to read a book, if the emperor dismisses this official, naturally there will be no such thing as this official."

In Jingwan's impression, the fifth Taiqing is also an amiable old man who likes to touch his beard, sometimes tearing one off. He also likes flowers and plants. things", and bickering, blushing, even though he knew that even Emperor Lecheng had a "stinky temper" in some aspects, he had never really seen it, but when it was really revealed, he had to call him People are amazed.

Bai Xueshi was very angry at the Fifth Taiqing, but he really couldn't participate in this book. After all, the Fifth Taiqing was a normal investigation, and if it broke the sky, he would take care of it. If you read his book, then , Bai Xueshi should be considered to have a relationship with Emperor Lecheng. At that time, not only Xueshi Bai will be criticized, but also Emperor Lecheng may be talked about by ministers in various ways. It's strange to be happy.

Bai Xueshi clenched his back teeth and could only be isolated from others. He watched Zuzuo play on his deceased son. His wife was crying, and her image had long since disappeared. She cursed the fifth Taiqing to die , Duanzi Jue Sun Yunyun.

The fifth Taiqing looked at him coldly, with a serious face.

It is also said that the fifth Taiqing is very cultivated. If you change someone, maybe you will go back directly - it is your Bai family who really cut off their children and grandchildren. No, the only seedlings are gone, it is because they have done too many things that hurt heaven and reason. Ended up like this. ——You must know that the fifth Taiqing has many children and grandchildren, a harmonious family, and a lot of achievements.

In the end, it was the white bachelor's wife who fainted.

It has to be said that Zuzuo is still a little capable. According to some characteristics displayed on the corpse, it can almost be concluded that the deceased took some kind of medicine before his death, and its effect is probably also a kind of replacement.

According to this line, I continued to investigate, and I did find a servant of the deceased. However, the servant was already dead, and the clues were completely cut off. If the servant was not ordered by Mrs. Bai Xueshi, he would have to be killed. It is suspected that the wife of Bachelor White has a great connection, and she is killing people. Knowing her recklessness and cutting off important clues, Mrs. Bai Xueshi fainted again, but after waking up, she did not admit her fault, did not take good care of her son, and made her son die in vain. Don't be damned?

In fact, as originally expected, no results were found at all. Although everything pointed to someone who planned all this, but every line, whether from the Bai family or from Li Hongyuan's Zhuangzi, was found. It was broken in some places, and it could not be checked any more. It was like a thread, which was divided into several strands and then cut off.

No clue, no matter how angry Emperor Lecheng was, the result would be the same.

Although the Bai family became rational, they thought that they should not take their anger on Prince Jin completely, but when they thought that the only seedling of the precious pimples was gone, how could they be rational? Even if they wanted to be rational, others would cry or point to Pointing, or gloating, always reminding them constantly, chasing their reason, this person is down with a certain degree of grief and anger, and he will always find a way to vent involuntarily.

The former patriarch of the Bai family went to the palace again, and his health was getting worse and worse. He looked like he would die halfway at any time, but he still did not stop his behavior.

Emperor Lecheng has an extraordinary headache. This has helped many of his uncles, and if he puts himself in his shoes, he can't say anything serious. However, if this matter is to be completely counted on his son, then It is absolutely impossible!

It is impossible for Bai Gongzi's corpse to be placed like this all the time, and it will always be buried in the ground.

So, the Bai family finally hung up the white flags and started the ritual.

Others also came to offer their condolences one after another, especially the in-laws of the aunts who were married off-the aunts.

Grandma came back as soon as she learned of the matter, and until now a few days later, she helped with various things.

Instead, I wanted to comfort them and let them mourn and change. However, the sadness of the white-haired person sending the black-haired person can't be eliminated with a simple sentence. Looking at the miserable appearance of the family, people can't help but sigh.

The Bai family didn't have a son before. From top to bottom, from inside to outside, they were often laughed at.

As the wife of a non-white scholar, even if she gave birth to four daughters, she was said to be a hen that could not lay eggs. The son has just ended. In fact, she is not too young. Her husband has long stopped having sex with her in order to give birth to a son. She can calculate that child. She is born as a son. Her status is stable. All "faults" are as if nothing happened.

That son is Mrs. Bai's life! Without a son, it can be said that there is no hope, and I have been going crazy recently.

And this matter, for some reason, was brought to Jingwan's head again. It seemed that it was only one night. All the faults were hers. It was her attention to build a horse farm, and her idea to build a luxurious rare animal park. It was all because of her that Prince Jin became more and more extravagant. If it weren't for these messy ideas she thought, how could it be so dead.

Jingwan felt her knees hurt, and she was shot even lying down.

However, just talking about it is not enough, the old lady of the Bai family actually asked Jingwan to put on a linen and filial piety for his son, and knelt until her son was buried.

If Jingwan didn't care about it before, this time her face was completely cold.

The Luo family did not intervene in this matter, however, the actions of the Bai family completely angered the Luo family.

Luo Peishan directly tore up with Bai Xueshi in the courtroom. Of course, he did not have anything to do with Bai Xueshi. He was the minister of officials, and he was in charge of officials. All officials related to the Bai family, especially his son-in-law, all of them. Pull it out and swipe it from head to toe. People in the officialdom can't stand to die. There is always a little problem in morality. Now Luo Peishan has brought them all out. There is a problem here. , If you fail the assessment, you are not allowed to be promoted. If you fail there, you are not suitable to stay in your current position. You must drop down.

To say that Luo Peishan is useless, "...This official is not like some people, he likes to make up and make things out of nothing. This official always pays attention to seeking truth from facts. Bai Xueshi said that this official is talking nonsense, but this official can't agree. , You must know that these matters are not handled by the official alone. There are so many people in the personnel department, so it is clear. Originally, the transfer of officials below the fourth rank does not need to be reported to the emperor. clear."

Although it is not a shady trick, it is even more annoying to target people in an open and honest way.

The Bai family has the emperor as their backing, and they are also good people. There are not a few good colleagues, but at this moment, no one has stood up. First, if Luo Peishan is angered, maybe he will be the next Bai family; Second, the Bai family has vacated their positions, and other people have more opportunities. Friendship is friendship, but it involves self-interest, so friendship is nothing.

Bachelor Bai was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

Luo Peishan's smile did not change, but his eyes were cold.

In such a scene, Emperor Lecheng also chose to sit on the sidelines without saying a word.

Of course, it wasn't just the Luo family who were really detonated. It was the living hell king who had accumulated a real evil fire in his heart. Once it erupted, it would definitely burn people to death. However, the living Hades did not move for the time being.

Many people related to the Bai family were in trouble, and Mrs. Bai didn't dare to continue to hold Jingwan down.

However, it doesn't mean that the Bai family's bullshit stopped just like that. The former patriarch ran up to the emperor and asked for the ninety-eighty-one altars built today to be used for his grandson.

Emperor Lecheng was immediately furious. If it wasn't for his uncle's sake, or because he was too old to stand still, Emperor Lecheng would not have smashed the inkstone directly on his head - Lecheng Emperor Cheng still wanted to see the imperial concubine and let him do things for his cousin? He is a child who deserves such honor? !

"Go back, uncle, I don't know about this."

This time, the former pavilion elder also ate the weight of his heart, "Your Majesty, the imperial concubine is just an orphan girl with no name, no surname and unknown origin, you hold her, let her become an imperial concubine, and give her no The honor of the emperor, but if you want to say what kind of Jiutian Xuannv she is, it is enough to coax the foolish people. Do you really believe it? Think about how much the empress dowager has done, paid and sacrificed for the emperor. , Does the emperor really have the heart that her family will end the inheritance after this?"

Emperor Lecheng's face was blue and black. Of course he kept some things in his heart. This was the reason why he had always appealed to the Bai family, but it didn't mean that he was willing to be brought up openly. "Uncle's words are over. Little uncle is very good. There are many children and grandchildren in the house. How can the Bai family break the incense."

The Bai family has always been sensible and sensible, but now, it suddenly broke out, making Emperor Lecheng very annoyed, suspecting that it was all pretense before.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, if my poor grandson can't be reincarnated, what happened to him is just the beginning of the Bai family. You really have the heart, really bear it..."

"Enough—" Emperor Lecheng shouted angrily and interrupted him.

"Your Majesty, my grandson died a wrongful death. He can't rest his eyes, and his resentment is hard to dissipate. You promised to uphold justice for him, but you didn't give him any explanations. You don't want to send him a ritual and let him be reincarnated. Your Majesty, the Bai family is gone, and this old man like me has no face to live in the world. Everyone in the Bai family is ashamed of their ancestors. It would be better if they all died.

go and beg you..."

The old man Bai Qiange was like a madman, what should be said and what should not be said, all screamed.

To put it bluntly, the purpose is still Li Hongyuan, to ask Li Hongyuan, the "murderer", to pay the price to resolve his grandson's grievances. Man's death threatens.

Emperor Lecheng's face was gloomy, and he didn't know what happened. He made his uncle look like a different person. If he didn't care, even if he got what he wanted, then would the Bai family have a better life in the future?

However, if this continues, the status and image of Emperor Lecheng in the people will be affected.

When Li Hongyuan got the news, he knew that it was almost there.

"Is it necessary for the Bai family to do this?" Jingwan was puzzled.

"The only seedling of the Bai family is gone, which means that the previous plan is invalid. It seems unwise to kill off the friendship with the royal father at this time, but what if someone made a promise to the Bai family at this time? The royal father How long can I stay on the throne, and how long can the Bai family exist? Even if it is rejected by the father and the emperor, as long as the people are still there, there is a possibility of recovery. I will remove the big stone for the person who made the promise, but I am a great hero. In the future Are you afraid that there will be no glory and wealth?"

Having said that, Jing Wan also understood. "A Yuan is ready to start?"

"Naturally, the matter must be settled before the emperor's decision. It is also time to teach some people what it means to draw water with a bamboo basket. - Mu An, get ready and go to the White House."
