Chapter 73 Faint King!Take your life!
Chapter 73 Faint King!Take your life!
Under the dim lights, the sparks in the pupils of the day almost burned the prince's sanity.
He almost blurted out.
But in an instant, Bai Tian's once seriously ill appearance appeared before his eyes again.
Finally, he took Bai Zhou's hand and asked: "How is your body these few days?" He went to check his pulse.
As soon as the fingertips touched Bai Tian's wrist, he listened to the side window, knocking out a rhythm clearly.King Yuanning and Bai Tian met each other's eyes and said, "Here we come."
Chen Xingning lightly jumped into the room from the window.
Seeing that the furnishings in this room are quite different from the emperor's attire today, he was slightly taken aback, and soon returned to normal, saying: "It is the house on the west side that has been exposed."
The prince looked towards the daylight.
Bai Tian murmured, "The west... is Baoheng." This Baoheng was very low-key in front of the imperial court, and was only responsible for tidying and cleaning the imperial study room. As a living person, it is a skill to make people pay attention at all times, but it is also true to be ignored.
Thinking of this, Bai Tian turned to Chen Xingning, and said, "Don't startle the others."
Chen Xingning took the order, and went out of the window again, and disappeared into the night like a ghost.
That night, Baoheng, the former imperial eunuch, disappeared, and no one knew where he went. Later, Bugo took people to find out the letter from his family urging him for moon silver in his belongings, saying that his younger brother was involved in gambling. Addiction fell in love with Xiuxian's pills again, so let him, a waste, earn more money from the palace as soon as possible.
In the huge palace, countless maids and eunuchs disappeared every year for different reasons.Some were punished to death by their masters, some committed suicide because they couldn't think about it, and a very small number of them escaped from the palace secretly.
Baoheng was not favored in front of the imperial court, and now he is being pressed for money by his family. Everyone said he was very annoying, maybe he couldn't think about it for a while...
One day, his body will be found in a corner.
But only a few people in the daytime know that the letter is fake, Baoheng is now being locked up in a house that Chen Xingning found.
Ever since Bai Tian wanted to take advantage of Shang Yuyan's opportunity to catch the eyeliners in the palace and Chaoli, he arranged several loopholes for traitors to take advantage of.
This time, Baoheng prepared different confidential letters according to the schedule of the eunuchs in the Imperial Study during the day, and put them in a seemingly secret place.
In the letter, King Yuanning, as Ziwei Ling, explained to the emperor Shang Yuyan's situation and where he was being held.
Of course, each imperial eunuch learned of different places of detention.
What Chen Xingning called "the house on the west side" was exactly what Baoheng knew.
But is everyone else clean?
Of course not.
But contented during the day, one must first find a thread to get rid of the cocoon, and one can be pulled out one by one.
Difficulties are imminent, and not everyone can keep their mouths shut and keep their original promises.
Sure enough, before Chen Xingning and King Yuanning came up with any means, Baoheng knew everything, and only hoped that the emperor would spare his life.Baoheng was also arranged by the emperor's side with the influence of King Rui, and his current employer is the Ma family.
Hearing the result during the day, Ma Xun really didn't stop thinking. I'm afraid there was a reason why Bai Jing targeted him, but Bai Jing's methods seemed more "bastard".
The original owner, Bai Jing, did not know where he went, but during the day, he felt more and more that, no matter whether it was good or bad, he was actually a man with far-reaching plans.Wearing the skin of a ruined king, planning something alone.
It's a pity that we fought alone and fell short.
At the court meeting four days later, Hubu Shangshu and the new Zuodu censor jointly participated in the performance. Ma Chengyang, the son of the former Zuodu censor Ma Xun, violated the "Law of Dayao" - relatives of those who become officials are not allowed to engage in business.
Sitting on the dragon chair during the day and laughing secretly, sure enough, when the news got out, there would always be people who couldn't sit still, and said: "This matter...cough, Ma Aiqing is just sick at home, I can't be too harsh on the old minister, if it is serious, go and investigate, I'm afraid that half of you here will have to eat melons, and my Dayao's world finances will be greatly reduced."
Zuodu Censor said: "Your Majesty, for the sake of the people's livelihood, it is really a blessing for the people of Dayao to take the replays and watch them from a high level, but..." He kowtowed, "Ma Chengyang treats the incumbent officials coldly. Respect, there are more than one officials who have benefited from him... As the censor of Zuodu, since the investigation has been confirmed, he cannot neglect his duties lightly."
As he said that, he sang with the Minister of the Household Department, and found out that Ma Chengyang bribed the former Minister of the Household Department, and was able to buy the land deed of the former Duanling Palace from the Ministry of Household Affairs, as well as the misdeeds of other officials he bribed.
While listening during the day, he glanced at Wen Yibin, the censor of the right capital.
Since the queen passed away, Wen Yibin has kept a low profile.
During the daytime, to investigate his reality, he was summoned several times, but this man's mouth seemed to be smeared with paste, and he answered whatever he asked, and most of the time he didn't say a word.
Cherishing words like gold is nothing more than that.
But no matter how conscientious Wen Yibin behaved, there was no lack of folk gossip - the left hand is like running water, and the right hand makes steel.It is said that Zuodu Censor changed three terms in two or three years, and Youdu Censor Wen Yibin, but since before the emperor ascended the throne, he has sat firmly in his position.
The so-called left palm hall, right patrol outside Fu, is the rule of division of labor in Yao Kingdom.
Wen Yibin should at least be responsible for the matter of donating officials in Beng'an County in the past, who knows that the emperor didn't mention it at the beginning, so it must be said that the emperor was quite tolerant of this former brother-in-law.
Not only that, but after the queen passed away, she gave a lot of mourning and lenient treatment.
At this moment, Master Wen looked at his colleagues and talked freely as usual.
After Zuodu Censor finished his passionate speech, he said to Wen Yibin during the daytime, "Wen Aiqing, how do you think this matter should be handled?"
In fact, Bai Zhou asked the question knowingly, and he revealed a lot of rumors to Wen Yibin without any trace in the past few days.Sure enough, Wen Yibin didn't make a name for himself, but kept silent. He didn't know what method he used to persuade his colleagues to take the credit.
Wen Yibin bowed upwards and said: "I used to be a colleague of Master Ma Xun, but I never thought that he would be depressed at home, but neglect his son's discipline. According to the "Law of the Great Yao", relatives of officials who engage in business should be confiscated. Income, officials are demoted to three ranks, Mr. Ma, you are really confused."
High-sounding, watertight.
Therefore, Bai Zhou said: "Since this is the case, this matter will be handed over to the Supervision Yuan. You are all censors on your left and right. You two should discuss it."
After all, he retreated without incident.
The noon sun slanted on the ground, and most of the cicadas in the palace were glued to by the servants. Even if there was no squeaking noise, the daytime still felt dry.
Suddenly he missed the bamboo in the Wangfu, after thinking about it, he still resisted the idea of going to the Wangfu - even though he is a faint king who is confused by the prince's looks, he can't just rush there after a few hours.
It's too much to justify.
Sitting alone in front of the window, rubbing the purple bamboo flute given to him by the prince, his thoughts went far away again, Wen Yibin, Ma Xun, Wen Xu, Ma Chengyang, the people in Zhanhuan and the late King Rui... It seemed People who have nothing to do with each other are actually inextricably linked behind the scenes, and they are constantly being cut and confused.
After thinking about it, there is one key point in all kinds of confusion—why King Rui was silenced, and what was written in the edict given to him by the late emperor?
Could it be that Ma Xun, as King Rui's retainer, was targeted by the original owner Bai Jing because he knew something, but also because Bai Jingshang didn't dare to kill him because of what he knew?
Of course, this is all daytime speculation and needs to be verified carefully.
As a result, Chen Xingning came here in a hurry before he finished half a bowl of tea because it was supposed to be daytime. He said that he asked the Superintendent to punish Ma Xun and his son according to the law. Chen Xingning secretly arrested Ma Chengyang.When it comes to the supervisory office to investigate and arrest people, Ma Chengyang will immediately get the reputation of absconding in fear of crime, and he deserves to be shamed for the rest of his life.
If Ma Chengyang can cooperate with Chen Xingning's inquiry and say something useful, Chen Xingning will give him a new identity and let him go to another country to enjoy himself.
Unexpectedly, the man was arrested, but he was assassinated on the road, and now he is only breathless and placed in a private house.
As soon as Bai Tian heard it, his anger went up. After thinking about it, he didn't know what went wrong, so he asked, "Who would assassinate him?"
Chen Xingning sighed and said, "It might be that the blind cat met the dead mouse. The one who wanted to put him to death was a suspect in the serial killer case a few days ago, and the executioner who had a relationship with Bugo."
It's not next to each other...
At first glance, they are indeed not next to each other.
Chen Xingning saw the emperor's expression, and continued: "It's... a personal enmity."
----------
When Bai Tian came to the house where Ma Chengyang was housed, King Yuanning hadn't arrived yet. The incident happened too suddenly and could not be publicized. There were only a few guards of Chen Xingning around the house.
Yi Shui'er dressed like a commoner in the city.
In the courtyard, Chu Yanchuan had already arrived. When he saw the emperor coming, he stepped forward to salute, and said, "Ma Chengyang was pierced through the chest with a knife, but he missed it by a few degrees, so he was still breathing. The assailant was pressed in the firewood room. No matter how you ask Said it was a personal enmity."
Bai Tian nodded, and Chu Yanchuan's so-called "question" was of course not a gentle question. When the executioner was imprisoned in the criminal prison, Bai Tian had observed him in the dark, and he could see that he was indeed a tough guy.
"Go and find out who else is in his family." Bai Zhou said.
Chu Yanchuan replied: "A few days ago, according to the records of the Criminal Department, there was an old mother who was sick. I don't know if she is still alive."
Bai Zhou nodded and said with a smile: "Go and fetch the person, but don't say unnecessary words, be gentle and polite to the old man."
Chu Yanchuan took the order and went.
Entering the house during the day, I saw a doctor taking care of the wounded on the bed.
He walked closer to see the situation.
On the bed was Ma Chengyang, whom he had never met before. His face was as pale as if it had been coated with tinfoil paste, and sweat dripped from his forehead.Because of the pain, his expression was extremely distorted, and he couldn't see his original face. He only felt that he should be a rough-looking person, and he was only young.
Seeing that there is too much air and less air intake, it will fail.
This can't be dead.
Bai Zhou asked, "Where is your lord, why haven't you come yet?"
There were footsteps outside the door, but the person who came was not Yuanning King, but a servant next to the prince, who looked familiar but couldn't call his name during the day, and said: "Go back to your majesty, the prince took the jade man to the Ministry of punishment, my lord." The ones have already been urged by someone, and I will report back to His Majesty first."
Bai Tian nodded, then turned to look at Ma Chengyang on the bed, thinking that he couldn't ask anything like this.
Then he thought that King Yuanning went to the Ministry of Justice to investigate Chen Xingning, who secretly found out that the Minister of the Ministry of Justice had a close relationship with Wen Xu a few days ago, but there was no clue about the elixir transaction.
Then he sat down at the table beside him and sorted out the context of the incident.
Next to him, the doctor was still trying his best to save Ma Chengyang's life, taking ginseng tablets, acupuncture and moxibustion, talking non-stop for a moment.
Suddenly, Ma Chengyang seemed to be finally held by the doctor, groaned, and opened his eyes slightly.
Looking up at him during the day, he found that his gaze was also on his own face.
The four eyes met for a moment, and Bai Tian felt that his eyes did not look like a sick and weak person who was about to die, and subconsciously had a little more precaution.
Just as he was about to call Chen Xingning, Ma Chengyang suddenly jumped up from the bed. He was only wearing his inner jacket, not leaving a single piece of iron, and he pulled out the wooden hairpin from his head with one hand, and his hair immediately fell into a mess.With disheveled hair, like an evil ghost seeking his life, he approached Bai Tian in an instant.
He whispered in his mouth: "Fun Lord! Take your life!"

When will the vest that King Yuanning welded on his body fall off?
It's coming soon, trust me!
