The first paparazzi in the Red Chamber

The black pig leaned close to Jia Amnesty's ear and whispered something.Jia Amnesty immediately frowned, turned around and asked him if he had checked.The black pig moved closer to Jia Shen's ear and said a few more words.Jia She nodded, and asked the black pig if they were ever followed when they came.

"The one who came out before the city gate closed, went to Yinfang to stay for a while, climbed the secret path in the house, and came out from the back mountain. Be safe and no one will follow you."

Hei Zhu mentioned the current situation in the capital again, Fang Zhenglu and others looked at Jia Amnesty, waiting for him to make up his mind.

"Can we also discuss this matter with Mr. Song?" Liu Xianglian suggested.

"What's the matter, usually he doesn't have the most ideas, but now he looks like a turtle, sick? I don't believe he can be sick, but when you encounter difficulties, he hides at home and doesn't go out. What's the point? !” Dou Cong exclaimed angrily.

Jia Amnesty: "If you don't know the specific situation, don't talk nonsense."

Dou Cong turned his head and snorted coldly.

Fang Zhenglu asked Jia Amnesty softly, "Since you left Beijing, have you not had any contact with Master Song?"

Jia Amnesty nodded.

Fang Zhenglu frowned, and stopped talking.He felt that with Master Song's style, he would not treat his family like this.Since the eldest prince came back in the capital, the attitudes of all parties have changed a lot, and it is unknown what trouble Mr. Song really encountered.

"My lord, what should we do next?"

Jia Amnesty: "Since I'm back in Beijing, is it possible that Tang Tianli really allowed Tang Tianli to frame me and abscond in fear of crime?"

"Okay, let's go back to Beijing! See if I don't kill all those who bully us!" Dou Cong shouted menacingly with wide eyes.

Jia She narrowed his eyes, "We will enter the city after midnight."

"Why wait until midnight?" Liu Xianglian asked puzzled.

Fang Zhenglu: "At that time, it is the right time to enter the city."

"The timing is right? I don't understand." Liu Xianglian scratched her head and laughed.

Fang Zhenglu asked him to wait and see the result, and he would know when the time came.

After Zhang Kaichi learned that Jia Amnesty was leaving, he hurriedly came to see him off, and sighed that he was of no help.

"You have already helped me a lot. If no one takes me in, I'm afraid I won't be able to enter the capital at this time." Jia She said.

Zhang Kaichi shuddered violently, "What does your lord mean by this? Could it be that there are still people chasing and killing you?"

Jia She looked at Zhang Kaichi with deep eyes, and nodded slightly.

Zhang Kaichi was shocked, he never expected that there would be someone so rampant under the emperor's feet, even dare to arrest the Duke.

After knocking on the clapper four times, Jia Amnesty bid farewell to Zhang Kai and galloped to the north city gate at night.

Every two days in September, Zhang Nan would guard the city at the north city gate.

After Jia Amnesty lowered his straw hat and rode to the city gate, Jia Amnesty showed his token.

The guards guarding the city looked up at Jia She, but only saw the outline of the jaw under the straw hat. After checking that there was no problem with the token, the guard asked Jia She's identity.

When the black pig heard this, he was a little unhappy, "My lord is carrying out a secret mission, and his identity is not worthy for you to know. What's going on now, as usual, you guards will open the door without saying a word."

The guards saw that the black pig was full of aura, and knew that these people had a lot of background, so they hurriedly handed over their hands and declared that this was an order from the new management envoy Pu Yuxi. Only when the identity comes from can they be released.

"Ask your commanders to come and answer." The black pig said.

The guards were helpless, so they had to report to the commander Zhang Nan.After Zhang Nan came over, he recognized Jia She's figure at a glance, and immediately said: "You people are also confused, even the famous Master Liu can't help it, so hurry up and open the door."

After Zhang Nan finished speaking, he scolded the guards to move more quickly.After hearing this, the sergeant guarding the city hurriedly apologized and opened the door, not daring to care about which Lord Liu this Lord Liu is.

Jia Amnesty nodded at Zhang Nan, and immediately led his subordinates into Beijing, heading straight to the residence of Xing Ming and Xing Xiuyan on Tongde Street.There is only this place at the moment, and it will probably not be noticed by those people.

Xing Ming was very pleasantly surprised to see Jia Amnesty, he quickly saluted and went to call his sister.

Jia She hurriedly grabbed the child's hand, comforted him and went back to his room to rest, "It's not too late to see you tomorrow."

Xing Ming agreed, knowing that the adults had something to discuss, so he obediently resigned.

Dou Cong quietly followed out from behind the crowd, stopped his life, took out two wood carvings from his arms, and handed them to Xing Ming, "I picked these for your brothers and sisters in Liuzhou. Take it, throw it away if you don’t like it!”

After Dou Cong finished speaking, he turned his head and didn't look at Xing Ming, just stuffed the two wood carvings in Xing Ming's arms, turned his head and hurried into the room.

Xing Ming was stunned for a moment, and looked down at the two pieces in his arms. They were exquisitely carved rats and dogs, both of which were lifelike, which happened to be the zodiac signs of him and his sister.It must have been specially bought for them, Xing Ming was a little surprised, looked up to look for Dou Cong, but he was nowhere to be seen.

After the door was closed, Jia Amnesty discussed matters quietly with Fang Zhenglu and the others, and then assigned tasks, and everyone performed their duties...

Just after dawn, the emperor was woken up by his own coughing.The little eunuch brought tea for clearing the lungs. After drinking it, he calmed down, and his neck, which was red because of a dry cough, gradually returned to its original color.

With the support of the eunuch, the emperor stood up, changed his clothes, and then went to the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

Seeing this, Dai Quan hurriedly went to the side to comfort him, asking the emperor to take care of the dragon's body so that he could recuperate from his illness.

"The current situation in the court is so chaotic, how can I have the intention to sleep peacefully on the couch." The emperor sighed hoarsely, and then coughed twice more violently.Dai Quan was busy beating the emperor's back, and ordered another cup of lung-clearing tea.

"The sage should have some breakfast before worrying about military affairs."

After the emperor drank it, he waited for a while to get better, and according to Dai Quan's words, passed on the breakfast, but he only took two mouthfuls of bird's nest porridge and put it down, not wanting to eat again.

When the emperor arrived at the Hall of Supreme Harmony, he sat down to review the memorials. After reading a few, he sighed and looked at the memorial on the right side of the table that he put aside alone.This excerpt is precisely the one that Tang Tianli presented to impeach Jia Amnesty for wrongly judging and framing the third prince for treason.

The matter of the third child being stabbed made the emperor extremely angry, but he dared not speak out.It's because when he sent Jia She to Liuzhou to investigate the case, he deliberately let go and let him act expediently.If the third prince really objected, he allowed him to kill him on the spot.The emperor thought that Jia She was a good minister worthy of reliance, but he didn't expect that he would go too far and dare to do it.The emperor also recognized this matter, after all, he was the one who spoke first, and the great feats that Jia She had made for Da Zhou were worthy of his patience.

Unexpectedly, now that Tang Tianli has once again become Chengzuo's memorial, he has completely pushed his anger to the extreme.

The emperor put his hands on the table and clenched his fists. If it were an ordinary official, he would order to arrest and seize it immediately. He who speaks based on evidence, would he really do such a thing in a hurry?But after asking this question, the emperor felt that the answer was yes.Because of the third child's violent temper, he knows well that if Jia amnesty investigates him, it is very likely that he will kill someone in a fit of anger to vent his anger.Jia Amnesty has never been used to nobles disregarding human lives, even the prince, he has never flattered and bowed his knees.

"Your Majesty, Huang Shangshu is here." The little eunuch reported.

Before Huang Yuande could salute, the emperor immediately asked Huang Yuande: "What do you think about Tang Tianli's book, how should we deal with it?"

After the ceremony, Huang Yuande took the memorial respectfully, opened it and read the contents carefully.Huang Yuande was so startled that his hands trembled, and he dropped the folder on the ground. Then he knelt down and kowtowed to the emperor, speaking with trembling voice angrily, "Jia Enhou is so courageous. I have heard that he is arrogant and never puts his Any royal family and dignitaries take it seriously. Today, this minister has really seen it. He even attacked my dignified and noble third prince of Da Zhou with the blood of the royal family, and even stabbed him half to death! Your Majesty, if such a rebellious minister, If we don’t impose severe punishment on him, and if others will follow suit in the future, wouldn’t our court of the Great Zhou be in chaos, and how can the blood of the royal family of the Great Zhou survive?”

The emperor frowned when he heard Huang Yuande's words, and thought carefully about what he said, every sentence made sense.There are always some of these meritorious ministers, and as long as you have a discerning eye to know people, there will be an inexhaustible supply of talents, but his sons only have these few, and the status of the old eleven is not good enough, so they must not be used.The boss is disfigured, and the emperor is unwilling to choose him.The remaining third child and the young fifteenth child both have their own advantages and disadvantages, and there are still shortcomings, but at least they are personal choices.If there is any accident for the third child, then his blood of the Great Zhou royal family is really too thin.

When thinking about the issue of the heir to the crown prince, it is inevitable to think about whether there is a conspiracy in it.Based on the relationship between Jia She and Song Xi, if he felt compassion, he would be partial to Song Xi, and in order to protect the fifteenth prince, he would overly criticize the third prince and exaggerate trivial matters, using this as a reason to punish him.

Thinking about it this way, Jia Amnesty is really not innocent.The emperor sighed in his heart.

At this time, Huang Yuande knelt down and asked the emperor to severely punish Jia Amnesty for his rebellious and immoral deeds that hurt the third prince.

The emperor frowned, "This matter still needs to be carefully considered. After all, Marquis Jia En has made contributions to my Great Zhou."

"Your Majesty's words are correct. Jia Enhou has indeed resolved many crises for the Great Zhou before, and made great contributions. But all these contributions together are not as serious as his harming the crown prince. Moreover, he, Jia Enhou, has made great contributions to him before. At that time, the Holy Majesty was not stingy in rewarding him. He got what he deserved. He made a mistake, so why should he forgive him easily? Originally, the Duke of this country committed a crime, so it must be carefully investigated before making a decision, but Marquis Jia En Right now, he has fled in fear of crime, he is tantamount to not calling himself, why should the emperor hesitate now, thinking about those old relationships!" Huang Yuande impassionedly persuaded the emperor, his face flushed and he was very excited.

The emperor squinted his eyes and frowned deeply. What Huang Yuande said was true. He seemed to be too hesitant on this matter. "Then Huang Aiqing is just talking about how to deal with this matter if you want it."

Huang Yuande suggested: "Naturally, it is necessary to enforce the law impartially and convince people with reason. After all, Marquis Jia En is the imperial prince, and it is not that simple to deal with him. In my opinion, first announce to the world, and the whole country wants to arrest him alive and bring him to Beijing." Confessing the facts of the case will not only make him die convincingly, but also stop the people from talking."

"Master Huang can save you the trouble of arresting me. I just want to let me die convincingly." Jia Amnesty walked into the Hall of Supreme Harmony in a purple official robe. Extravagance.He walked to Huang Yuande's side in three or two steps, and stood side by side with him, dwarfed by comparison.

Seeing Jia Amnesty standing in the middle of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, the emperor slightly opened his eyes to confirm.

Huang Yuande was even more astonished, looked up and down, and then asked Jia Amnesty in disbelief: "Why did you come back? And how could you be so rude, directly barge into the Hall of Supreme Harmony, and eavesdrop on what I and the emperor said. "

"I am a courtier of the Great Zhou, and there is still my home in the capital, so I naturally want to come back. Lord Huang may have forgotten that I have the right to walk in front of the imperial court. What I did just now was in a hurry. Please forgive me, Lord Huang." Jia Amnesty asked back.

Huang Yuande looked at Jia She with an expression of eating flies, then turned his head in disgust, showing that he didn't bother to pay attention to Jia She.

Jia Amnesty knelt down and kowtowed, paying his respects and pleading guilty to the emperor.

"Why do you apologize?" the emperor asked sharply.

"I failed to investigate the case of Liuzhou thoroughly, so I withdrew and returned to Beijing for some reason. Please forgive me."

"A thorough investigation? Marquis Jia En, what you said is really euphemistic. Why don't you just explain why you stabbed the third prince!" Huang Yuande turned his head and said angrily at Jia She.

"I didn't stab the third prince." Jia She said.

The doubts on the emperor's face deepened after hearing this, and Jia She was good at explaining.

Jia Amnesty then told the emperor about his investigation process.

Huang Yuande sneered: "As for the evidence, there is nothing to prove it, so what you say is what it is?"

"Of course I have the original confession of the thief Che Shuangquan. And I didn't do anything about stabbing the third prince. How can I prove it? The witnesses are all imprisoned in Liuzhou, and they can't testify here. Just be able to testify I'm afraid that according to Mr. Huang, they are all my subordinates, and their testimony is no longer credible. I just want to say, is there any evidence for Tang Tianli's memorial?"

"With Che Shuangquan's testimony, he said that he suffered from you and..."

Jia Amnesty: "Master Huang, an unverified testimony can be used as ironclad evidence against a court official? Then if I say that I also have a thief in my hand, it also means that you have hurt the prince, Mr. Huang. Are you willing to admit it?"

"Marquis Jia En, you are too arrogant!" Huang Yuande blushed and scolded Jia Amnesty when he couldn't agree with Jia Amnesty, and then handed over to the emperor, asking the emperor to make the decision.

The emperor looked at Jia Amnesty who suddenly came back, and then at Huang Yuande, feeling a little headache.

After pondering for a while, the emperor said: "Since Jia Aiqing has come back, the things that Tang Tianli testified in the notebook should be verified. Jia Aiqing said no, but Tang Tianli said yes, so what is the truth of this case? Who is better to check?"

After the emperor finished speaking, he looked at Huang Yuande.He felt that Huang Yuande had nothing to do with the Third Prince or the First Prince, so it was fair to entrust this case to him for investigation.

"Your Majesty, I have been hunted and hunted all the way. Even before I entered Beijing, there were people chasing me near the city gate. I was almost in danger. I have no chance of returning to Beijing. If this case goes to There are many variables in the investigation in Liuzhou. It is better to let Tang Tianli go to Beijing to make a statement, and the two of us will make it clear in front of everyone, so that we can confront each other." Jia Amnesty suggested.

Seeing that Jia Amnesty spoke in a clear and orderly manner without the slightest sign of guilt, the emperor wondered in his heart that there might be something hidden about this matter.It is indeed a good way to let Tang Tianli come and make a statement.The emperor then ordered that Tang Tianli be brought back as soon as possible.

"Ai Qing just said, did someone intend to arrest you after you arrived at the gate of the capital?" the emperor asked eagerly.

Jia She nodded, "That's right, that's why I must enter the palace secretly. I think that when General Tang is not here, I can start with the thieves who arrested me and check their sources carefully. "

The emperor felt that this was the truth, and immediately ordered someone to investigate.Jia She hastened to say that if this matter is to lure the snake out of the hole, he must be used as the bait.

The emperor knew that this matter had a lot to do with whether he could trust Jia Amnesty and whether the third prince was innocent.So he didn't assign it to anyone, but let the secret guards go with Jia Amnesty.

Before leaving, Jia Amnesty begged the fourth person not to know about this matter, and asked Huang Yuande not to leave the palace until the matter was over.Huang Yuande was very unhappy, but he stayed to avoid suspicion.

When it was almost noon, a guard came to report that the thirteen people involved had been arrested.These people pretended to be beggars basking in the sun near the city gate in an attempt to prevent Jia She from entering Beijing by guarding the entrance.

The secret guards then informed the emperor of the results of the review. These sergeants pretending to be beggars were all soldiers from the Changsheng Battalion, and now they were guarding behind the gate of the capital to find the person in the portrait.

The secret guard then showed Jia Amnesty's portrait to the emperor.

The emperor's eyes widened, and he couldn't believe that a mere Changsheng battalion would deceive himself by making up such a rebellious thing.Although the current evidence alone is not sufficient, the emperor's heart has already begun to turn against Jia Amnesty.He felt that Jia Amnesty was more credible, because Jia Amnesty was the same Jia She he knew, fair and just, based on the law, not as he had previously speculated that he would lose his mind because of favors or selfish greed for power. , did something wrong.

The emperor felt somewhat guilty towards Jia Amnesty.

"It's just that I have made a lot of mistakes. As a minister, as a minister of the country, I should report the crime to the emperor, and the emperor's imperial pen will approve and deal with it. But Tang Tianli blatantly posted a portrait of the minister in Liuzhou City, wanted him everywhere, and even made a reward offer." People's tricks. This kind of reward is said to be to live, but if those people are really obtained by profit, in order to capture the minister, will they guarantee the life of the minister? It is impossible to hide the matter of offering a reward to arrest me without authorization People living in Liuzhou City know about it, and they just need to send someone to inquire about it, and they will naturally understand." Jia She continued to explain.

The reason why Jia Amnesty specifically explained this matter was because he knew that Tang Tianli's booklet did not include anything about being wanted.

The emperor opened the booklet to confirm that Tang Tianli had mentioned in the booklet that Jia Amnesty escaped, and he had to arrest him, but he did not say that it was a public reward.The difference between the two is huge!Public rewards are only available to convicted criminals who have committed heinous crimes.Jia Amnesty still has the imperial title of duke of the auxiliary country and the official position of doctor Yushi. A super-rank duke of the country will be wanted. This idiot's actions are clearly slapping the court in the face s face.

"This Tang Tianli is so courageous!"

"The minister sees that he is also anxious all his life and feels guilty." Jia She said.

Huang Yuande who was on the side couldn't help sneering, "Master Jia is not guilty, so who escaped all the way back from Liuzhou?"

"The opponent has military power. Compared with him, I have almost no power. If I don't know how to escape, will I still be imprisoned in Liuzhou until I die?" Jia She asked Huang Weide back.

The emperor also glared at Huang Weide.

Huang Weide pursed his lips, lowered his head and remained silent.

The emperor sent Huang Weide away, then left Jia She alone, and asked him whether the third prince was dead or not.Jia She shook his head and said he didn't know, he just explained to the emperor that he found pig hair in the blood, but he was not sure whether the pool of blood was human blood or pig blood.While the emperor was angry, he was also a little worried, and immediately asked people to mobilize the army and horses to go to Liuzhou to suppress Tang Tianli.As for the third prince, he must know whether he is dead or alive.

"What Aiqing means is that the Liuzhou Yantie case was nothing more than someone's careful plan to frame the third child, with the intention of attacking the west. Then the 'East' is publicized, and what is the 'West'. Tang Tianli, why is it so big? Fei Zhouzhang?"

"This person belongs to the former clan of His Highness the Third Highness's grandfather, and he has some wishes to show allegiance to the Third Highness. The Third Highness has lived in Liuzhou Mausoleum for a long time, and has not returned to Beijing for a year..." Jia She said euphemistically.

"So that's it. He used this matter to slander you and Song Xi. Not only did I dare not use you, but he also felt sorry for him and called him into the capital. Heh, it was a good plan." The emperor sneered. Not only that, but instead happily walked out from behind the desk, and patted Jia She on the shoulder, "Fortunately, Aiqing noticed it in time, reacted quickly, and now came to me in time to explain the situation, otherwise I would really be caught by this bastard. Tang Tianli is in the dark."

"Everything should be investigated carefully and speak with evidence." Jia Amnesty was not infected by the emperor's emotions, nor did he add embellishments.

The emperor was full of admiration when he heard this, but he was very happy that Jia Amnesty, whom he used to rely on, had returned, "But the current situation...that's all, don't say much, you will know later. In short, I need Aiqing right now."
