Qianqianjie, kidnap a reborn prince back to the modern era
Chapter 172 Old Case Revisited
Emperor Dong Cang made a drowsy decision to summon the Little Medical Fairy as soon as possible, as only she could cure him.
Look at Sheng Beiqiu who was about to die. He was so seriously ill, but he was saved by a few pills from the Little Medical Fairy.
Also, according to Eunuch Jiang's report, half a month ago, the Little Medical Fairy went to the Censorate and saw Zhu Huaizhang.
That stubborn old man is full of pride and is the most difficult guy to deal with. Whenever he opens his mouth, he gets a headache.
I heard that he was very ill and had taken sick leave for more than a month. His family was preparing for his funeral.
He tried hard to open his cloudy eyes and glanced below.
Who is that old man with his stiff back?
Zhu Huaizhang?
is it him?
Is his illness cured?
Could it be that the Little Medical Fairy cured it?
Looking at his complexion, he doesn't look sick at all!
Damn!
Why hasn’t the morning court ended yet? Are there so many crappy things to talk about?
It delayed his time to ask the little doctor to see him.
He sat on the dragon chair, squinting his eyes in thought, anxiously waiting for Eunuch Jiang to say "dismiss the court", and became very impatient. He imagined the Little Medical Fairy coming to his bedroom in a sedan chair.
"Your Majesty, I have something to report!"
Xibohou Xia Feng stepped out of the line with dignity.
"Hurry up and tell me, hurry up and tell me, it's best not to bother me with trivial matters, just handle it yourselves."
He waved his hands impatiently, and no one could tell that he was in a hurry to end today's court meeting.
Xia Feng took his time, took out a wooden box from his sleeve pocket and held it high.
"Your Majesty, what I'm talking about is not a trivial matter. It concerns a major case from sixteen or seventeen years ago, the lives of thousands of soldiers, the lives of Dongbo Hou Baili Xian and his son, and the lives of dozens of people in the mansion."
"what?"
Cang Hantian sat up straight at once, his roar becoming choked.
The hall was eerily quiet for a moment, and then whispers were heard from all directions.
"Dongbohou Mansion, Baili Xian and his son?"
"They have been dead for nearly 16 or 17 years. Aren't they considered traitors to the country?"
"There is no conclusion. The evidence was not made public at the time, and there was no verification. He died the next day after being imprisoned. On the same day, the entire government was killed by men in black who came from nowhere. No one knows whether there was any treason or not."
"At that time, the case was handled by the old Prime Minister Song Ren'an. He testified that the father and son of Baili Xian defected to Beiyan."
"There are many suspicious points in this case, but a gag order has been issued. This is very abnormal."
"Listen, what's going on?"
In the hall, civil and military officials were talking in low voices, but a few of them were stunned.
The one who was stunned was Song Liu, the Minister of Works.
He was just there to make up the numbers in the court every day. He could not say more than ten sentences a year, and the eight sentences he said were just nonsense.
Today, seeing that everyone was looking at him, he just wanted to find a hole in the ground to crawl into.
That box that couldn't be more familiar is now in Xia Feng's hands. Who can tell him what is going on?
Dad?
Can you come and save your son?
If such a big rock falls, how can my son hide?
His legs were shaking like a sieve and he fell to his knees, as if he had confessed himself.
Prince Ning Cangmin looked at his good-for-nothing uncle with cold eyes.
How stupid! At this moment, I can't admit it no matter what!
In the hall, only Prince Sheng Cangyu was still standing there with a stern look on his face, taking in all the discussions around him.
Prince Shen Cangxun let out a long sigh of relief in excitement.
Finally, it’s finally about to begin. He wants to bring Prince Ning down completely.
Cang Hantian, who was sitting on the dragon throne, was stunned for a moment. Dong Bohou Mansion?
Baili Xian?
Why is this name so familiar?
It was as if a door was opened in his heart, and a cold and chilly breath spread from the inside out, permeating his entire body.
"What evidence do you have? This was a major case sixteen or seventeen years ago. At that time, the old Prime Minister Song Ren'an testified that Dongbo Hou Baili Xian and his son colluded with Beiyan General Shi Hai to overthrow the throne of Dongcang. This matter is known to the old ministers and many old people. Do you have detailed evidence to overturn this case?"
The person who spoke was the old censor Zhu Huaizhang who was attending court today.
He was in his early fifties, slightly dark and thin, with a stiff beard on his chin.
He served as an official for more than 20 years. As a censor, he was upright and incorruptible.
He always questioned Prime Minister Yun and the Ministry of Personnel's practice of recruiting powerful officials, and over the years, many of their power-seeking plans were aborted.
He is impartial, fearless of power, and does not form cliques for personal gain.
Half a month ago, he found out that his long-term illness was caused by chronic poisoning, and it was a very hidden chronic poison.
His housekeeper was bribed and instructed the servant who delivered meals to the study to give him medicine for half a year, which accumulated until last month when the poison finally took effect.
The doctors hired by the mansion were unable to diagnose his illness, and his family had already prepared for his funeral.
Just at night half a month ago, Prince Sheng Cangyu suddenly appeared in his bedroom with Little Medical Fairy.
When he was dying, the Little Medical Fairy saved him and told him the cause of his serious illness.
To this day, he has recovered.
With the help of Xiao Yixian's elixir, he became much stronger, so he appeared in the court today.
He had always been puzzled by the case of the massacre of the Dong Bohou Mansion sixteen or seventeen years ago.
The old Prime Minister Song Ren'an presented evidence of treason and found a letter from the study of Duke Dongbo. His Majesty directly ordered that Baili Xian and his son be thrown into prison and the entire palace be confined.
On the second night, a group of men in black who came from nowhere massacred the entire Dongbohou mansion.
At the same time, news came out that Baili Xian and his son committed suicide in prison out of fear of punishment.
This case is complicated and confusing, but Your Majesty has been very strong in suppressing it, and no one is allowed to mention this case again.
Afterwards, the matter had been left unresolved for so many years, and he was really puzzled, so he asked this question.
"Of course there is. I wonder if Minister Song can recognize this box?"
Song Liu slowly got up from his collapse, trembling and swaying under the gazes of everyone.
"No, I don't know him."
"You don't know him, why are you so nervous?"
The loud voice of the general in the hall frightened Song Liu so much that he fell to the ground.
Xia Feng walked to Song Liu's feet, holding the nanmu box with a gloomy look.
"Such a good thing, don't you want to guess where I found it from?"
"I don't know. I don't know what you are talking about."
He was so frightened that he was incoherent.
How many times had he woken up from nightmares? How many times had he been forced to answer questions about the death of Dong Bohoufu and whether it was his father who was responsible? He really didn't know much about the inside story.
"Your Majesty! This matter is of great importance. It concerns the trust of the soldiers on the border, especially in the northern border. There are still many soldiers who once followed Baili Xian, the Marquis of Dongbo. We must give them an explanation. Your Majesty, please issue an order to let the three courts jointly try the case and find out the truth of the case."
Master Shang stepped out slowly and made a proposal.
Emperor Dong Cang’s head was buzzing.
Cangxun, this rebellious son, where did he get the evidence from?
Could it be that he really got what was left behind by that old fox Song Renan?
Yun Xuan knew that this was useless. After so many years, he had not found that thing and destroyed it. Now, what should he do?
