Chapter 249 Continuing the Farce
"Did you not do it?" Hong Lie said something, then turned his head and looked at Chen Shangshu in a soft tone. "Chen Shangshu, he said that the two of them did not do such a thing."
With such a tone and behavior, Chen Shangshu is undoubtedly playing with him as a three-year-old child.
Chen Shangshu was so angry that his beard trembled, but at this moment he had to say: "Yes, I heard him say that she didn't do it."
"Then I'll ask you a second question." Hong Lie stood up and walked around the lobby. "Since you didn't do this, why did His Royal Highness King Yi specify that you wanted to rebel against you on the day of the sacrifice?"
"I don't know about that." Wen Qing shrugged her shoulders. If the incident just now hadn't happened, Wen Qing might have stuttered when she spoke, but after the farce just now, the woman understands that today's Honglie is very likely It's helping her, so it doesn't hurt to say more. "You and everyone know that His Royal Highness Yi Wang and my father have never gotten along."
"Wait a minute..." Honglie interrupted him. "Why are the old general Wenming and His Highness Yi Wang at odds? One is a courtier and the other is His Highness."
When Wen Qing wanted to say this just now, she saw Hong Lie's expression out of the corner of her eye. The man was serious, and the woman suddenly understood what he meant by asking this sentence.
Maybe everyone knows about the relationship with the royal family, but the common people don't know it. The facts are in front of them. Even if they look at the flowers from the other side, they are unwilling to pierce the fog.
And between this question and answer, it is clear that various interests are presented to the eyes of ordinary people.
When the woman spoke, her tone became a little bit resentful: "My father has guarded a hundred thousand imperial guards for the Yue Kingdom all his life, but the emperor said that he wanted to weaken his father's rights, so he gave it to His Royal Highness King Yi for nothing. , apart from having the vain reputation of being the most beautiful man in Yue, there are other talents that can convince everyone, so the two of them are naturally at odds."
"Okay, very good." Honglie nodded. "Then I'll ask you a third question. Since the two are at odds, why did General Wen hand over the military talisman to His Royal Highness Yi Wang, who has always been at odds with him?"
This question made Wen Qing speechless. It was indeed the crux of everything, and she couldn't think of an accurate answer for a while.
And Old General Wen, who was silent all the time beside him, didn't know what he was thinking at this time, and took a step forward: "If I say that I have never handed over the soldier talisman to His Royal Highness King Yi, can everyone believe this sentence?"
Okay, one stone stirred up thousands of waves, and the lobby, which was quiet just now, instantly became famous at this moment, and even the heavy guards could not control the voices of everyone's conversations. "Since he didn't hand over the soldier talisman to His Highness Yi Wang, where did the bat in His Highness Yi Wang's hand come from?"
"Yes, you can't talk nonsense about this matter."
The common people below whispered and whispered to each other, and everyone had an indescribable expression on their faces.
"Since you didn't hand over the soldier talisman to King Yi, where did the soldier talisman in King Yi's hand come from?" Hong Lie asked.
The woman really couldn't answer, and there was a moment of silence in the lobby.
Chen Shangshu swallowed, and felt that it was time for him to play a role: "You two can't say anything about the soldier talisman, but King Yi is indeed holding the soldier talisman in his hand, is it the two of you? Lying?"
"If you have indeed handed over the military talisman to His Highness, but now you refuse to admit it?" At this time, his brain was spinning fast, and he pointed to the center of the problem in an instant.
Just when Wen Qing was about to speak, another soldier suddenly ran over from outside.
The soldier knelt directly on the ground, wearing armor: "Chen Shangshu, it's not good, your house was stolen."
"Stolen?" Shang Shu stood up in a panic, wanting to rush out of the lobby without thinking about anything, but when he took two steps, he finally realized where it was.
He is indeed in a dilemma. It would be okay if it was only because their house was stolen, but after so many years of accepting bribes, he has scraped off a lot of people's fat and people's anointing, and there is still evidence of private collusion with His Royal Highness Yi Wang in the mansion. Well, if this was stolen by some short-sighted little thief, it would not be Wen Qing who died today, but him.
"Chen Shangshu, didn't you say that there is going to be a trial? Why did you run forward in a hurry when you heard that a little thief came?" Wen Qing spoke, just about to choke him.
But he didn't expect Honglie's attitude to change suddenly. He stood up from the chair and walked to Wen Qing's side: "Chen Shangshu, I heard that thieves are rampant in the south of the Yangtze River recently. You can hurry home for the precious things in your house." Let's see."
As soon as this sentence was said, Chen Shangshu's face turned livid, and the woman didn't quite understand what Hong Lie meant when she said this sentence. Just when she wanted to complain, Hong Lie's hand pulled her sleeves.
The movements were very light, not so gentle, that Wen Qing instantly knew what he meant by these words.
"Chen Shangshu, you can try my matter another day, but if you lose important things in the house, it will be terrible. You should go home and have a look."
Chen Shangshu was in a dilemma. Today's trial was ordered by the emperor, but there are precious things in the house, so he was in a dilemma for a while.
What Hong Lie said seems to have resolved his crisis: "Or we'll bring the Empress and Old General Wen there together, or you won't be at ease in your heart."
When the matter reached this stage, it had already developed in the direction of absurd farce. The crime of treason is a serious crime. The law does not allow people to play tricks. He was more concerned about his own thoughts, and then a sudden situation made Chen Shangshu not care about anything.
Chen Shangshu could only wave his hands: "Press Wen Qing and General Wen away."
When she said a word, before the woman could react, she walked from the yamen to Chen Shangshu's house.
There are two generals guarding the woman behind her, but because of her status, neither of them is considered rude, and Old General Wen is different. He is the idol of a generation of soldiers from the Yue Kingdom. At this time, no one dares to approach her. body front.
When the two of them walked to Chen Shangshu's mansion, Wen Qing was dazzled by looking left and right, and she deeply felt why everyone was going to be an official.
The Shangshu is the third grade, but the decorations in the house are almost as gorgeous as the palace, especially when you enter the mansion, you will be surrounded by pavilions and pavilions, and the decorations placed on the road are all golden taels. The mansion is built with a Jiangnan atmosphere, revealing the temperament of a literati.
