His Majesty once married me

In the Palace of Qiankun, Qi Yunheng was looking through the plan for the autumn examination submitted by the Ministry of Rites, while thinking about which aspect of this year's Jinshi examination should be written, Eunuch Wei leaned forward and whispered: "Shangshu Zhu Bian of the Ministry of Punishment, please see me." .

——The response was quick.

Qi Yunheng raised the corner of his mouth, signaling for Eunuch Wei to let Zhu Bian into the palace.

Soon, under the guidance of the little eunuch, Zhu Bian entered the inner hall of director Qi Yunheng, and bowed to Qi Yunheng.

"What's the matter?" Qi Yunheng asked indifferently.

"This humble official is not as skilled as others. I am willing to gamble and accept defeat. I am here to confess my guilt to Your Majesty and submit to the law." Zhu Bian expressed his intention of coming very bachelorly.

Qi Yunheng was amused by him, and asked back: "Zhu Shangshu just said, what crime did you commit, and what law should you obey?"

Zhu Bian was not ambiguous, and immediately told the story of his private investigation of Yang Dejiang and the deception of his marriage to the capital.

After finishing speaking, Zhu Bian asked Qi Yunheng to punish him again, but added a little more, "Please also tell your Majesty the cause and effect, so that I will understand even if I die."

"Zhu Qing is serious." Qi Yunheng smiled slightly, and was very satisfied with Zhu Bian's attitude, "You are the minister of the Ministry of punishment, and you personally presided over the compilation of "Hua Lv". Crime. Although Zhu Qing has the intention of breaking the law, he has no act of breaking the law. Do I want to punish Zhu Qing for leading a family to the capital? Zhu Qing will tell me, what kind of crime is this?"

Zhu Bian twitched the corners of his mouth, lowered his head, and did not make a sound, but secretly heaved a sigh of relief: the first hurdle was passed!

Qi Yunheng continued: "As for how I knew about this matter, in the final analysis, there are only four words: chance and coincidence."

Speaking of this, Qi Yunheng changed his voice, "The Zhuang Zhou you hired is now called Guard Zhou."

The official positions of the golden knife guard and the imperial guard are common, and ordinary members are called guards with swords.

When Zhu Bian heard it, he suddenly realized, "Golden Sword Guard has incorporated the 'Bao Inquiry' in the capital!"

Qi Yunheng smiled without saying a word.

"Your Majesty...he is truly a man of destiny!" Zhu Bian gritted his teeth and flattered him.

Qi Yunheng suddenly felt better, "I said it, but it was just a coincidence."

"There are many people who want such a coincidence, but those who get what they want, apart from His Majesty, I have never seen anyone else!"

Zhu Bian really admires Qi Yunheng's luck from the bottom of his heart.

After flattering, Zhu Bian knew that he had passed the test completely, and immediately straightened his expression, bowed to Qi Yunheng and asked: "I implore your Majesty to bestow the grace, and allow you to join the Golden Sword Guard and take over the position of the Golden Sword Guard."

Uh……

The corners of Qi Yunheng's mouth twitched when he heard this, he hurriedly lowered his face, frowned and said, "Zhu Qing, don't mess around!"

"I'm not fooling around, I'm serious!" Zhu Bian puffed out his shriveled chest, plausibly saying, "Ever since I worked in the Ministry of Criminal Justice, I feel like I've become blind, deaf, or lame. It’s hard to know why…”

Zhu Bian opened his mouth, and Balabala quoted scriptures and classics, and his words were frothy and vivid, but his central idea was that the Ministry of Criminal Justice wanted nothing, and couldn't find any available manpower to investigate a case, so he had to spend money to hire The hooligans on the street who do things for themselves are not as good as Golden Sword Guards. They have a lot of eyeliner and are not restricted by various rules and regulations. You can grab whatever color underwear you wear today.

— It is impossible to know!

Qi Yunheng's head was full of black lines, but he couldn't help being moved.

There is no doubt about Zhu Bian's ability, as long as this guy is not allowed to fight the enemy himself, it is not impossible to be a strategic general.This guy is born to like to take the "trail". He will be like a fish in water when placed in the Golden Knife Guard. Maybe he can really develop the Golden Knife Guard to the point of pervasiveness. Even if he wants to know what color underwear a certain courtier is wearing today, You can also quickly find out...

--wrong.

--That does not work!

Qi Yunheng quickly woke up.

With Zhu Bian's temperament, he will not be as obedient as Pan Wuchun, and prohibit orders.

Ask Zhu Bian to check the color of a certain courtier's underpants. He must also check the underpants of himself, the emperor.

Besides, if Jin Daowei's power really swelled to that extent, not to mention how other courtiers would react, his royal husband would definitely blow his hair!

In today's capital, who else has more secrets than his royal husband?

If Zhu Bian is really going to be in charge of the Golden Knife Guard, will this guy be curious about his royal husband and not investigate his royal husband?

At that time, even if his royal husband doesn't curse Zhu Bian to death, he will definitely set off a bloody storm in the capital!

——For the sake of peace in the world, the authority of Golden Sword Guard cannot be handed over to Zhu Bian!

Qi Yunheng made up his mind, but in the end he was unable to defeat Zhu Bian's offensive. Although he did not agree to let him serve in the Golden Knife Guard, he and Pan Wuchun were allowed to interrogate Yang Dejiang together.

—— Never talk to this guy alone again in the future!

Seeing Zhu Bian leaving the Qiankun Palace with great ambition, Qi Yunheng gritted his teeth and felt regretful.

Zhu Bian didn't waste the opportunity Qi Yunheng gave him, after leaving Qiankun Palace, he turned around and went to the director's yamen of Golden Knife Guard.

Pan Wuchun had just settled Yang Dejiang's family, and before he had figured out how to use them, Zhu Bian appeared in front of him with a smile.

Pan Wuchun was suddenly depressed.

Before Qi Yunheng ascended the throne, Pan Wuchun was a serious scout leader, and he also did dignified investigation.However, after Qi Yunheng ascended the throne, the Scout Battalion was changed to Golden Knife Guards, and its duties were changed from external to internal, and Pan Wuchun's life changed from sunny to dark.

For the emperor's cronies like Zhu Bian, Jin Daowei didn't have strict monitoring at first, and Pan Wuchun and Zhu Bian rarely interacted with each other.

However, in the past two months, because of Yang Dejiang's involvement, Pan Wuchun had to conduct a detailed investigation of Zhu Bian, and then found that this guy was obviously more suitable than him to be the governor of the Golden Sword Guard.

But for a person with the talent of a prime minister to be the shady governor of the Golden Sword Guard, I am afraid that His Majesty the Emperor would also be reluctant.

While Pan Wuchun was emotional, he also raised his vigilance towards Zhu Bian. Seeing him visiting now, he couldn't help but be more careful.

Today, Zhu Bian was not in the mood to play around with him, and directly expressed his intention to come, asking him to take him to see Yang Dejiang immediately.

The corner of Pan Wuchun's mouth twitched, but he didn't dare to be careless. First, he sent someone to walk around the Qiankun Palace to confirm Zhu Bian's oral order, and then turned around and led Zhu Bian to the dungeon where Yang Dejiang was imprisoned.

In Zhu Bian's mind, Yang Dejiang has been imprisoned for such a long time, and nine out of ten have been tortured out of shape.

However, after entering the dungeon privately set up by Golden Knife Guards and seeing Yang Dejiang imprisoned in the cell, Zhu Bian found that he was cleanly dressed and his face was neat. Except for his dejected expression, he didn't look like he had been tortured at all.

"There has been no trial?" Zhu Bian asked suspiciously.

"Our method of interrogating people is different from that of the Ministry of Criminal Justice." Pan Wuchun replied indifferently.

"Why is it different?" Zhu Bian became interested immediately.

Pan Wuchun didn't answer, and directly ordered someone to drag Yang Dejiang out of the cell and send him to the next level of the dungeon.

As soon as he saw where he was going, Yang Dejiang's face immediately changed, and he struggled in the opposite direction, yelling loudly, "Don't send me there, I'll say everything, everything!"

Pan Wuchun ignored him, and motioned to Zhu Bian expressionlessly, motioning him to follow Yang Dejiang with him.

The lower level of the dungeon did not have the terrifying torture tools that Zhu Bian had imagined. On the contrary, it was neater and cleaner than the upper level, and there were only compartments sealed with iron doors on both sides of the passage.

Zhu Bian probed in and looked in, and found that there was nothing in the compartment, empty.

Pan Wuchun did not explain, raised his hand and pushed Yang Dejiang into a compartment, then closed the iron door and locked it.

Immediately there was a bang bang bang bang sound in the compartment, as well as a faint heart-piercing cry.

Pan Wuchun turned around and brought Zhu Bian back to the upper floor.

"Is this your trial?" Zhu Bian asked suspiciously.

"Yes." Pan Wuchun nodded, "Don't ask me why, I don't know."

"That……"

"Your Majesty taught it." Pan Wuchun knew what Zhu Bian wanted to ask, "Before this, he was always invincible. If he refused to confess after one hour of confinement, he would definitely confess after ten hours."

"Before that?" Zhu Bian blinked, "That is to say, it didn't work on Yang Dejiang's body?"

"Yeah." Pan Wuchun sighed, "It's not that it's invalid, it's just that it can't be judged. This guy can talk about everything, even confessed to peeping on the woman next door to take a bath when he was a child, but he doesn't say what we want to know— —The secret between him and Qin Guogong."

"Perhaps you should ask Duke Ji." Zhu Bian said.

"I asked." Pan Wuchun looked depressed, "What he is willing to say is what we already know. If you ask further, as far as you are concerned, he is talking nonsense."

"Maybe I really don't know?" Zhu Bian guessed casually.

Pan Wuchun sighed, but did not answer.

Zhu Bian immediately realized that Pan Wuchun might also think the same way, but His Majesty the emperor above him didn't believe it.

Zhu Bian narrowed his eyes and became thoughtful.

Pan Wuchun didn't say a word to disturb him, and let Zhu Bian be tempted there.

After about a stick of incense, Zhu Bian said: "Let him out, and change to a decent room... Well, it's better to be next door to the Yang family, so that he can take a look at the family before going in."

"Wait a moment." Pan Wuchun didn't question, and directly ordered people to arrange according to Zhu Bian's request.

Not long after, Yang Dejiang was taken out and escorted to a room with a window above the surface, while his parents, wife and children were placed next door, so that Yang Dejiang could just see them from the window before entering the door.

To Zhu Bian's disappointment, he didn't know whether Yang Dejiang had changed too much or for some other reason. Although his parents, wife and children also saw him from the window, they failed to recognize him. Worry still turned his head away.

Fortunately, Yang Dejiang recognized his parents, wife and children, and the expression on his face changed a little in an instant.

——Fortunately, I found the wrong person.

Zhu Bian breathed a sigh of relief quietly, and wiped away the few drops of cold sweat that quietly appeared on his forehead.

After entering the door, Zhu Bian didn't put on airs with Yang Dejiang, and sat down with Pan Wuchun in the first place, then stretched out his hand and made a "please" gesture, signaling Yang Dejiang and himself to sit down as guest and host.

Yang Dejiang was slightly startled, and then, as if thinking of something, a little joy appeared on his face, he straightened his back, and sat down on the lower part of Zhu Bian.

Zhu Bian smiled slightly at him, "Don't worry about the neighbor, I know, even if I put a steel knife on your father's neck, you won't be moved in the slightest, you should talk nonsense, just talk nonsense as usual."

Yang Dejiang's eyebrows moved slightly, as if he was touched by Zhu Bian's words, but in the end he didn't respond, and sat on the chair without saying a word, waiting for Zhu Bian to further express his intention.

"Let's get straight to the point." Zhu Bian continued as he wished, "I saw you for one purpose, and this purpose can be described in two words, that is... Zhao An."
