The first thousand two hundred and fifteen chapters a crushing defeat sixteen
Someone complained, so he naturally had to go and investigate, so Wang Qili took his people to Wang Chengjiang's home to search.
Wang Qili didn't think so much at the beginning, just wanted to go through the process, give the emperor an explanation, and sell Li Xun a favor. So before leaving, he specifically instructed that after arriving at Wang Chengjiang's house, he would just search and not take the opportunity to privately hide property, nor beating, hurting, or extorting people.
Wang Qili did find two boxes of property in Wang Chengjiang's home. If it was fair, he was a private smuggling object, which was a death sentence. However, Zhao Xun felt that it was not a big deal for them to fight bloody battles for themselves, making great contributions, and making some money. Even the emperor didn't care, so Wang Qili naturally wouldn't care.
The property can remain unmoved, but at least you have to figure out the specific number of the property. In this way, Wang Qili can also hand over the emperor.
Then, during the process of counting property, unexpected things happened.
A soldier found a somewhat old edict at the bottom of a box of goods. This thing was obviously deliberately hidden in it by Zhao Bolin.
With a puzzled mood, Wang Qili opened the edict to watch it. This time, he was completely shocked.
This edict was actually the secret edict of Emperor Xingzong, the edict to re-establish the crown prince.
Wang Qilizai looked carefully and found that the edict was exactly the same as the edict in his hand.
Wang Qili naturally did not dare to hide such a major event, so he immediately took the edict and met the emperor.
Zhao Xun immediately ordered that the matter should not be made public and that the matter should be thoroughly investigated in secret.
Wang Qili returned to Silitai and immediately punished Wang Chengjiang. According to his instructions, he kept three boxes of property, one box of property, one box of it, and one box of it to his subordinates, and the other box was given to his immediate superior Zhu Zhengguo. But half a minute later, Zhu Zhengguo returned the box of property to Wang Chengjiang and asked him to hand it over to avoid causing trouble. Wang Chengjiang expressed his agreement, but did not do so, and took all the two boxes of property as himself.
Because Wang Chengjiang is timid and cautious, he kept the two boxes of property at home and was not taken out to use it, so from beginning to end, he never cleaned the property in the box. Wang Chengjiang had no idea about the edict at the bottom of the box.
This matter is now unclear. After all, the thing was found from Wang Chengjiang's home and it has been kept in his home for almost two years. For so long, Wang Chengjiang said that he did not know about the edict, and Zhao Xun did not believe it at all.
And more importantly, with the emergence of the second edict, Zhao Xun suddenly became suspicious. How many edicts were there secretly written by the late emperor that year to re-establish the crown prince? Are these two edicts that have been obtained the real or duplicate?
If it is just a copy, who will the real edict be in whose hands?
Zhao Xun thought of many things. When he came to his senses from his thoughts, he looked at Wang Qili with a gaze and said in a low voice: "What do you think about this matter?"
Wang Qili said: "I have been punished severely against Wang Chengjiang, Zhu Zhengguo and others, and have investigated their families from multiple parties, combining intelligence and information from all aspects. I think that Wang Chengjiang and Zhu Zhengguo should tell the truth, and they may not know about the edict."
After hearing Wang Qili's answer, Zhao Xun's face suddenly became gloomy and said coldly: "What I want for such a major matter is certain, not possible."
Wang Qili quickly knelt on the ground and said loudly: "I will step up the investigation and give the emperor a definite answer as soon as possible."
Zhao Xun didn't say anything, squinted his eyes and fell into deep thought. After a long time, he said in a gloomy voice: "I... don't want to hear their voices in this matter."
Hearing this sentence, Wang Qili's face changed slightly. The emperor wanted to silence all those involved in this matter.
Yes, whether you know or not, it doesn’t matter. Killing Zhu Zhengguo and others may become certain. Although the methods are vicious, they are the safest way.
Zhao Xun glanced at Wang Qili and said in a low voice: "Your people should be handled by yourself."
"I understand."
Wang Qili gritted his teeth and could only agree. He couldn't help but think of his subordinates. The more than 20 soldiers who followed him to Wang Chengjiang to search that day might not be able to survive. Wang Qili was very reluctant to have such a result, but some things were not something he could decide. He could only accept any order from the emperor.
Wang Qili said: "Emperor, Zhu Zhengguo and Li Xiangguo are close friends. Now the battle in Hebei is the time when Li Xiangguo needs to be used. Now that Zhu Zhengguo is killed, isn't it..."
Wang Qili is still making the final efforts. He promised Li Xun that he would do his best to help Zhu Zhengguo, but now the situation is developing in the opposite direction.
"Wang Qili, do you think Li Xun may know about this?"
Zhao Xun suddenly asked this question.
Wang Qili lowered his head and did not dare to speak.
Zhao Xun said with a self-respect, "You just said that Zhu Zhengguo and Li Xun are close friends and are as close as brothers. If Zhu Zhengguo knew about the edict, he would have told Li Xun to know, right?"
Wang Qili said: "The best way is to destroy it. Without the edict, there will be no danger. If Zhu Zhengguo knew about the edict, there would be no need to tell Li Xun about it. The wisest way is to destroy it directly."
Zhao Xun sneered: "These are just your guesses. Who can know what the real situation is?"
Wang Qili whispered: "Your Majesty, I think it doesn't matter whether you know or not, what is important is choice."
Zhao Xun remained silent, pondered for a moment, then nodded and said, "What you said is reasonable."
Whether Li Xun knows about the edict is actually not important. What is important is that he chose you. Otherwise, even if there is no edict, he will be your enemy.
Zhao Xun looked at Wang Qili for the last time. He said this, not only to plead for Li Xun, but also to plead for himself.
The edict in Wang Qili's hand had been handed over to Zhao Xun. Unexpectedly, Zhao Xun did not kill him, but continued to serve as the captain of the Sili School. In this position, Wang Qili did very well and dealt with many headaches for himself.
The reason why Zhao Xun did this is just like what Wang Qili said just now. It doesn’t matter whether he knows it or not, what is important is his own choice.
Wang Qili submitted an edict to show that everything was his choice. Zhao Xun accepted it, he was alive, Zhao Xun refused, and he died. It was that simple.
