The sharp sword passed through the person's throat with a "chick", and blood flowed down the sword, "tick tick tick", at this moment, the surroundings suddenly became quiet.

Everyone's movements turned into slow motion in Chen Xiang's eyes. He could even see Chen Geng not far away with a frightened expression on his face. Zhang Yihe didn't know what he was talking about.

The body temperature gradually dropped and became colder and colder. With a sound of "chi", the sword had been pulled out, and the blood splashed out as the sword left fell on Zhen Po's face, and his handsome face showed a little Fascinating charm.

The sharp sword in his hand is like a toy in the hands of a child. With a swing of the long sword, the sound of piercing the air is heard one after another, and an arc created by blood spreads in the air.

"Chen Xiang is dead! Do you still want to rebel? Put down the weapons in your hands now, and you can still save the lives of your family!" The emperor quickly regained his composure, his heart beating fast, and he shouted loudly. A dozen or so dark troops appeared in the corner, each holding a variety of weapons in their hands, blocking the escape routes everywhere.

"Dang" I don't know which timid soldier put down the weapon in his hand first, and then the rest of the soldiers followed suit and let go of the weapons they held tightly in their hands.

"What are you doing? My father is not dead yet, so bring me a knife and gun," Chen Geng yelled at the crowd like a madman, but no one paid attention to his words. Have courage, not to mention that Chen Xiang is dead, and Chen Geng is a dude, so he can't be of much use!

Chen Geng's roar sounded ridiculous and desolate at this time, and Dali Temple Qing Ye Ang and others also felt a sense of sadness at this time. Some people originally wanted to settle accounts with Chen Xiang and asked him why he was in the wine. He poured the sweat medicine but didn't tell everyone, and now he no longer has this idea, everyone is worried, Chen Xiang is dead, the emperor obviously has a plan, and he should take care of his own life.

The figures of the dark army quickly shuttled through the crowd, pressing the acupuncture points of the remaining soldiers, and Chen Geng was tied up by Wuhuada.

"Your Majesty." Zhen Po jumped on the beam and stretched out his hand, which was as white as jade. The cold phoenix eyes clearly reflected the emperor's absent-minded expression like a pool of spring water.

Looking at that perfect face, the emperor subconsciously stretched out his hand to put it in Zhen Yu's hand, pulling and pulling, and the two fell from the beam.

"Your Majesty, the minister has already prepared the antidote for the sweat medicine. Your Majesty, do you want to wait for the medicine to expire automatically or let them take the antidote first?" Zhen Po took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and wiped the blood on his face.

The emperor's eyes wandered, and he didn't dare to look at him. Seeing that there was still some blood on his chin, he couldn't help but stretch out his hand to wipe off the blood. The smooth jade-like touch made his face even redder.

Zhen Po was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

For some unknown reason, the emperor didn't want to remove the Mongolian sweat medicine from everyone's body. After all, if someone still didn't give up after removing the Mongolian sweat medicine, wouldn't it be shooting himself in the foot.But if it is really necessary to catch them all, this matter will involve civil and military officials of various important positions, and Chao Gang may also be impacted because of this. Besides, these people have a handle in the hands of the emperor, and they will not be able to escape the emperor's control in the future.

Taking a walk in the courtyard, he bypassed Wu Feid, who was constantly wailing on the ground, and the emperor walked up to Chen Geng, who was still struggling, "You father and son have committed such a heinous crime, can you plead guilty?"

Chen Geng kept struggling, yelling and cursing some ugly words in his mouth, the emperor sneered, shook his sleeves, and said: "Gag his mouth for me, An Yi, you can go to Chen Xiang's mansion Have you found any evidence?"

An Yi was holding a package in his hand. After hearing this, he opened the package. Inside was the dragon robe secretly made by Chen Geng. The emperor narrowed his eyes slightly, gave Chen Geng a hard look, and gritted his teeth. He said word by word: "Okay, it's really a big treason. In no dynasty or generation have there been such wolf-hearted people as your father and son. I have seen it today."

Chen Geng seemed to want to curse, but because his mouth was blocked, he could only utter some vague words.

"Pull him down. I want to supervise the case carefully, so that other people with ulterior motives can see that whoever dares to plot wrongdoing, the fate of Chen Xiang and his son is their tomorrow." The emperor said neatly, his words were firm. Resolutely, the meekness and incompetence shown in the government in the past are easily torn apart like a piece of rice paper.

Zhen Po knew early on that the emperor was by no means as harmless as he appeared, so his heart was calm at this moment, and those courtiers who had always looked down on the new emperor realized that the emperor had been pretending from the beginning, not only cheated Chen Xiang, and even deceived all civil and military officials, this kind of scheming is indeed far beyond the reach of human beings.

In addition to Chen Geng and a group of people from the Prime Minister's Mansion, all civil and military officials who were deeply involved were also arrested and sent to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice to await trial, but everyone understood that the so-called pending trial was just a formality. , the purpose of the emperor is to frighten the world, and even more so to keep future generations vigilant.The empress dowager was also given a three-foot white silk and hanged to death in the palace that day.

The prison of the Ministry of Justice is dark all year round. Most of the prisoners who are held here cannot leave once they step in. There are various bizarre causes of death here. When Xu Zhishu was put in the prison that day, there was no People doubt that he will die here, even Xu Zhishu himself thinks so.

On this day, the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice was as cold and bleak as ever, and the guards shouted and cursed at the prisoners who were howling in the cell.Xu Zhishu leaned against the wall with half-closed eyes, and when he was distracted, he suddenly heard a rush of footsteps coming from outside the cell.

Following the sound of footsteps, the voices of the jailers also disappeared, followed by small exclamations, "Your Majesty!"

His Majesty?Xu Zhishu suddenly opened his eyes, forced his weak body to stand up, and staggered to the door of the prison, it really is His Majesty!

Xu Zhishu couldn't help shaking with excitement. He didn't think about why the emperor came here. If he wanted to kill him, there was no need for the emperor to appear here.

Looking at Xu Zhishu's old face, the emperor couldn't bear it, and the jailers wisely stepped forward to open the cell door and took Xu Zhishu out.

When Xu Zhishu, who was being supported tremblingly, saw the face of the emperor, his knees almost fell to his knees. The emperor hurriedly stepped forward to support him, "Master Xu, I made you suffer."

Xu Zhishu was in tears. Although he didn't know what happened, but when he saw the emperor's concerned eyes, he couldn't help his eyes welling up. But when he saw Zhen Xi standing a step behind the emperor, he couldn't help but stare Big eyes.

"Your Majesty, the jailer colluding with that Prime Minister Chen is a worm of the country. Don't let Your Majesty be deceived by him." Xu Zhishu said out of breath. In the prison, he could only eat some pig food every day. Things, young people can still endure, but Xu Zhishu is getting old, so naturally he is a little weak.

The emperor smiled and said: "Master Xu, the national teacher was specially sent by me to lurk beside Mr. Chen. In order to win Mr. Chen's trust, I had to pretend to believe Mr. Chen's nonsense and put Mr. Xu in prison. , and ask Lord Xu to forgive my sins."

Xu Zhishu heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this, the stone in his heart was finally able to land safely, and a thought suddenly appeared in his mind, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, has Mr. Chen been caught?" Show a look of anticipation.

The emperor smiled, looked at Zhen Po meaningfully, and said: "Chen Xiang has been killed by the national teacher, and a group of people have also been sent to prison. Master Xu has to take care of himself, and he will be tried in a few days." When handling this case, Master Xu is still needed to assist me and the National Teacher."

"Good! Good! The old minister will definitely live up to His Majesty's high expectations!" Xu Zhishu replied excitedly.

Seeing Xu Zhishu's expression, Zhen Po felt a little less guilty. After all, it was really wrong to wrong such a loyal and patriotic old courtier. If it was not for gaining Chen Xiang's trust, Zhen Po would not do such a thing.

However, seeing that the old man is so energetic, it is estimated that after he left, the emperor would not be afraid that he would not be able to find someone to help him, Zhen Po thought to himself.

However, he was still too naive. There were many officials involved in this case, and many of them were connected with carrots and roots. When one was dug out, other officials involved in the case were often found.

Zhen Po wished that one person could be split into three people to use. Some old officials from the Qin Tianjian Office were scattered to various ministries to help temporarily. Deputy Supervisor Chen was so busy that he didn't even touch the ground. The government office went to sleep.

In order to save time, Zhen Xun ordered people to clean up some clean places in various government offices as places for officials to rest at night, and the imperial dining room was also responsible for eating and drinking.

However, today, why do the dishes made by the imperial dining room feel weird?Zhen Po looked at the exquisite dishes on the plate, they looked exactly the same as in the past, but the taste was completely different. It can be said that if it wasn't for the fact that there was no vomiting in the stomach after eating, Zhen Po would have doubted this dish It was poisoned.

"National teacher, what do you think of this dish?" The little eunuch looked at Zhen Shen's face and asked.

Zhen Po frowned. Could it be that the imperial chef of the imperial dining room was also involved in the case of Chen Xiang? Why did it seem like a different imperial chef? "It's okay." Now that there is a shortage of manpower, there is no need to change the royal chef for this reason.

The little eunuch breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the imperial chef, it took half an hour to prepare this dish. If you like it, I will bring you this dish every day from now on."

Zhen Po's face turned blue in an instant, and he moved his lips, "No need, I only need clear soup and noodles. The imperial chef is responsible for the diet of many officials. I'm afraid it's not good for him to work so hard every day."

"You, don't worry, this imperial chef is only serving you." The little eunuch smiled with a different meaning, and Zhen Po twitched his lips, feeling that he was only poisoning him.

After dealing with the day's documents, Zhen Po stretched his waist and narrowed his eyes slightly. Thinking of the martial arts people and flower pickers who came to attack one after another in the past few days, he couldn't help but feel a little distressed. Bu Jingyun, Nie Fenger As expected of being Xiongba's disciple, with such a small mind, he actually attributed the "credit" for strangling Xiongba to himself, but he just cheated their seniors, is there any need to repay him like this?And which desperate court official spread the news about his wearing a mask, which attracted a crowd of flower pickers to come rushing like bees and butterflies.

Thinking of the strange eyes that people looked at his face recently, Zhen Yu couldn't help feeling funny, even if everyone knew that he was wearing a mask, so what, who would dare to ask him to take it off.

Zhen Po's body tensed suddenly, and he stretched out his right hand to the saber at his waist, "This is a guest, why don't you come in for a cup of tea, Your Excellency?"

A gust of wind blew by, and a white figure appeared in front of Zhen Xun. The white-clothed swordsman's face was terrified, and he said slowly, "Do you use a sword?"
