[Ninety-two] palace gate containment
"This is exactly what I mean." Deng Qing snorted from her nose.
Jiang Chengyi looked at it with a stern look and gritted his teeth, "Deng Qing! Do you know what crime is it for slandering officials in the North?"
"I know it well after reading the laws and regulations." Deng Qing raised his eyebrows lightly and said with a low smile: "Mr. Jiang doesn't have to use this to intimidate me. When he sits upright, he has evidence in his hands, and Yuanfu cannot escape."
He stepped forward, raised his lips and leaned against him, deliberately lowered his voice, and smiled in his ears, "Jiang Chengyi, it's time. You might as well think of a way to protect yourself. Yuan Fu used his power to seek personal gain, harmed good people, took human lives, and violated the will of the holy people, and robbed death row prisoners without jail. This is a crime of extreme punishment. If you don't do it well, you will also implicate the entire Censorate and the Eastern Palace may have an impact. If Your Majesty is angry... Even the Jiang Palace will not protect you."
After he finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards Yongmen. He bowed to the guards just now, respectfully and said politely: "My little master, yesterday evening, the servant in the mansion had already handed a greeting to the young mansion. Your Majesty already knew that there was something to report today. This is the reply sent back from the palace. Please report it after you have a look."
The words he said to Jiang Chengyi just now fell into Xue Si and Xue Qing's ears word by word. The two of them were extremely annoyed and immediately wanted to rush up and swing two punches. The husband in front of them stretched out his arm to stop them, turned around and shook his head at them.
Xue Qing and Xue Si clenched their fists, and the veins on their backs swelled up. They stared at Yuan Fu, who was covered in bruises on the ground, with only resentment in their hearts.
The guard looked at Deng Qing's tactful attitude and couldn't help but feel more favorable. He also politely returned the gift and said respectfully: "President General Wait, the villain will verify the notice."
He took the approval from Deng Qing and turned around and entered the palace gate.
But for a moment, the man held a prayer letter with both hands and turned to Deng Qing and handed it to him: "General, Your Majesty is waiting in the South Palace. Please come in quickly."
Deng Qing accepted the greeting letter, said a few words, then turned his head, deliberately looked at Jiang Chengyi and the other two, and said sarcastically: "Mr. Jiang, in the future, you should consider your Majesty's mood. Even if you are the object of admiration for scholars in the world, you should know that the most important thing in the court is. Those who rush around will never be able to win the holy heart. Over time, they will naturally be in trouble and will be difficult to protect themselves."
He raised his neck high, waved to the soldiers behind him, and entered the palace with the dying Yuanfu.
However, Jiang Chengyi and the other two were isolated from the Yongmen, and could only watch him leave.
Deng Qing had just stepped into the palace gate, and seemed to remember something, and looked at him with contemptuous eyes: "By the way. Although Lord Jiang can't enter the palace, I can help you. Just wait before Yongmen. Wait for a moment, Your Majesty will summon you into the palace."
Immediately afterwards, he urged the guard in front of the door and asked, "Don't let Lord Jiang leave."
The little guard was very obedient to Deng Qing and nodded repeatedly and said, "Don't worry, General Protector, since you said that, the villain will naturally not drive Lord Jiang away again."
Deng Qing smiled proudly, turned around and left lightly with his hands, his back was very arrogant. Xue Qing and Xue Si were outside, and when they saw this scene, they wished they could chew the blood through the gums.
"Lord, what should we do now?" Xue Qing didn't understand why Jiang Chengyi rushed to the palace in such a hurry and wanted to report to Emperor Wei about Su Ren's escape from prison. Seeing Deng Qing's actions, he suddenly realized and understood the Lang Jun's thoughts.
If they first entered the hall to meet the Emperor of Wei, they would turn the situation back and prevent Deng Qing from biting back and pouring dirty water.
After Jiang Chengyi learned that the person who gave Chen Wu poisoned the wine was Yuan Fu, he vaguely felt something was wrong. Later, he learned that Chen Wu's funeral was also handled by officials from the Censorate, and immediately understood the strangeness.
Deng Qing had already taken the lead and found a partner to frame the blame. Yuan Fu was his target. I believe that the case of Chen Wu robbery and murder in Southeast Lane was also deliberately arranged by Deng Qing in advance.
Deng Qing was very likely to have kidnapped Yuan's mother and Yuan's wife. Yuan Fu was busy copying documents for many days at the Censorate and had almost no room to rest. He stayed in the government office for half a month, so he naturally didn't know that something was wrong at home. Yuan Fu was extremely filial and loved his wife. Yuan's mother and Yuan's wife were the most important people in his life, and the interests of Shuige were not as good as the lives of these two people.
As long as Deng Qing deceived him to go to Southeast Lane with the lies of the witnesses who discovered Chen Wuyi's case at the right time, he could use his mother and wife to force him to act.
Yuan Fu was under Xue Qing, holding the power of the Censorate, in charge of various case files, and the number of people he could mobilize was quite considerable. As long as he was controlled, even if the guards in the East City Prison were too strict, Deng Qing would always have a way to transfer Su Ren.
Jiang Chengyi had already figured out how Yuan Fu helped Deng rescue Su Ren. Chen Wu, who was given poison wine, was their way to cover up their behavior. Deng Qing should have managed Chen Wu and his family long ago. Deng's inside line in the Dongfu Department must have been arranged to guard the East City Prison today.
Of course, they don’t need to do dangerous things. As long as the judge checks the prisoners, he secretly changes Su Ren to Chen Wu’s prison room and then lets Chen Wu change into the costumes of the Censorate officials, he can use Yuan’s clothes to secretly release both of them. Probably, the body wrapped in white cloth is Su Ren.
The prison guards in the East City prison saw Yuan Fu coming to execute the execution in person, and they certainly felt safe and would not check the dead prisoners more. They just need to apply mud to Su Ren's face to let the prison guards guarding in the prison take a look at them from a distance, and then they can get through the barrier and transport Su Ren quietly.
However, what he could not understand was how the person who looked like Su Ren who replaced Su Ren locked in the death cell was transported to the East City prison? The night before the execution day, Xue Qing and the left and right magistrates of the Tingwei Mansion went to check it out, and when he came back, he reported to him that there was no abnormality in the prison. Since this was the case, how did such a living person suddenly appear in the death cell?
He couldn't figure out this matter, his expression was gloomy, and he always felt that he had missed some clues. He thought that it would never be done by Mrs. Wang who delivered the meal. He carefully checked the old woman's background, but there was no evidence of the case, and was innocent, just an ordinary mother. Although he asked the prison officer how big the cart was for delivering the meal, he thought it was impossible.
When the cart enters, the five prisoners guarding the dungeon gate must check and check it together. After checking whether there is any poison, they can only be sent to prison. The prisoners will eat it. The verification process is detailed and there are special documents recorded on the spot.
In this way, Mrs. Wang's suspicion was naturally ruled out.
"Master, why don't you speak?"
Just as he was thinking deeply about this, Xue Qing's inquiry came again. Jiang Chengyi walked out of his mixed thoughts and slowly spread his deeply locked brows: "Since you come, you can rest assured. At this time, there is nothing to do. Deng wants to save Su Ren, but he doesn't want to blame him, so he pushed Yuan Fu to take the blame. The Censorate will inevitably scold and punish him."
"Does...we just let Deng Qing ignore it, watching Yuan Fu lose his life with false charges?" Xue Qing asked unwillingly. Yuan Fu has known him for many years, and the two of them have always been the most tacit partners in the Water Pavilion. He is regarded as his lifelong best friend. If something happens like this, he is naturally unwilling to do so.
"Deng Qing wants to touch my men?" Lang Jun's voice was very cold, and he sneered in his breath: "Dream in the daytime! Imagination!"
Xue Qing immediately lit up his eyes, looked at him deeply, and said expectantly: "Mr. Lang said this... are you thinking about it?"
Jiang Chengyi did not answer, but just stared at the majestic and noble palace silently and prepared to leave.
The guard guarding Yongmen immediately called out: "Master Jiang... General Protector said that you want you to wait here... Are you leaving now?"
Jiang Chengyi held his back, stopped and turned his head slowly and noblely, and his dark eyes were snatching him: "What? Now your immediate boss has become a general of the escort? Is it not your turn to take charge of my affairs, a small city guard!"
His eyes suddenly became very strange, which made the guard who looked at him inadvertently shudder, and immediately shrank his neck, not daring to say another word.
Jiang Chengyi turned around quickly and walked towards the mane horse that was docking aside.
Xue Qing and Xue Si followed him and asked hurriedly: "Lord, where are we going now?"
"Since Deng Qing starts to act, we can't be idle, right?" Jiang Chengyi said calmly: "We should notify Aluo, everything prepared outside the city can start to act. It is time for Wang He's handwritten book to be used."
When Xue Si heard what he said, he spread his eyebrows and was a little excited.
Jiang Chengyi jumped on his horse, grabbed the reins tightly, and looked down at Xue Qing: "You and Xue Si will go home immediately, and I will go out of the city."
Before Xue Qing could ask where he was going, he saw the husband raise his horse whip and scold the horse. Before he even had time to salute Xue Si, he saw Jiang Chengyi disappear from his sight and disappear in a blink of an eye.
"Brother Xue Qing, why did the lord go out of the city?" Xue Si said strangely.
"The lord has his own ideas when doing things. Let's do our part." Xue Qing put his arms around, patted his shoulder, twisted his body to the side of the horse, stepped on the stirrup, crossed up, stared at the direction of the Jiang Mansion and said, "Let's go."
Xue Si followed him closely, and the two galloped towards the back.
But here, Jiang Chengyi stepped on the horse's back and ran straight to the city gate, headed to the city defense army to guard the camp, looking for Jing Ting. He learned that he turned his horse's head and rushed back to the execution ground because of the turmoil of the people in the east.
