Chapter 347 Why bother to accuse someone?
"My Lords, you don't think I am an accomplice of Beiyan?"
"I believe that His Majesty will make the judgment!" Zeng Guangren clasped his fists in the direction of the imperial palace, glanced at Jiang Yue briefly, and then his eyes fell on the Minister of Justice who was following him.
Then I heard the Minister of Justice say helplessly,
"Let's go, Fourth Prince."
Then, he did not forget to look at Jiang Yue: "Thank you, General, for seeing the truth."
Jiang Yue shook her head, still in shock, and sorted out the matter:
"It's not my fault."
The Minister of Justice: "No, they are from Northern Yan."
After saying this, Zhao Chongzheng became even more confused.
"Okay, you guys, are you teaming up to set a trap for me?" Zhao Chongzheng's cold gaze swept across them one by one, finally landing on Jiang Yue.
It’s still those two words, “Trust me!”
Then he was taken away.
In an instant, the surroundings became quiet, and the people who had been hiding nearby began to move around as usual.
But after hearing Jiang Yue's identity as the young general, they dodged and left one by one.
Jiang Wuni and others then looked at the back of the Minister of Justice as he left. At this moment, he was still wearing the face of a spy from Northern Yan.
Jiang Wuni: "It turns out that he is not a fish, but a bait."
Feng Jinrong: "Why did things change like this?"
Yu Ziyan: "It seems that we have offended the Fourth Prince."
Jiang Wuni: "Not as if."
Jiang Yue, on the other hand, silently looked at the figure in front of her for a long time.
The affairs of the court are indeed much more complicated than those at the border, and if you are not careful you will be doomed.
………On the way back home.
Jiang Yue looked at the three people beside her. Their actions today saved the life of the Minister of Justice.
Was Zhao Chongzheng’s arrest a coincidence?
She shook her head and couldn't blame them. She could only say that the three of them, including herself, sped up their secret actions.
Is Zhao Chongzheng innocent?
She was wondering, who else knew about today's plan to lure the enemy?
She couldn't help but cast her suspicion on everyone in the court.
Then, she focused on Jiang Wuni and said:
"Fifth sister, I will earn money to support you."
She didn't want her fifth sister to catch any spies in order to make money. She just wanted her fifth sister to be safe.
Jiang Wu Ni felt warmed by these words and just nodded, which made the two people beside her envious.
On the other hand, the Fourth Prince Zhao Chongzheng's treasonous collusion with the enemy was already a fact in the eyes of the Minister of Justice and others.
Therefore, Minister Wen and General Zeng immediately brought Zhao Chongzheng into the palace that day.
Such important events must be reported as soon as possible.
In the study, Zhao Chongxiu heard
"Fourth brother colludes with the enemy and betrays the country?"
How can it be?
He was still somewhat shocked when he heard that his fourth brother was not doing his job and was collaborating with the enemy and committing treason.
His gaze fell on the dusty Fourth Brother standing aside.
He shook his head and refused to admit it.
"A bunch of nonsense."
Zhao Chongzheng has now regained his composure.
He bowed and looked at Zhao Chongxiu.
"I have absolutely no second thoughts about you, my brother!"
After hearing this, Zhao Chongxiu looked stern but still frightened. He asked the two adults beside him again:
"Is there any evidence?"
Could it be that the Fourth Prince's idleness was just an act, with the purpose of rebelling against him?
As soon as he finished speaking, the Minister of Justice took out a jade pendant from his bosom, and then he briefly reported today's experience, and then said:
"This token was found on Biyuelou."
Zhao Chong was staring at the jade pendant in a daze, then shook his head.
"Brother Emperor, it's not me, it's Wen Liang who wants to frame me!"
Zhao Chongxiu looked at General Zeng:
"You also think that my fourth brother is a traitor to the country?"
General Zeng clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, I only believe in evidence. If the Fourth Prince is framed, I believe Your Majesty will seek justice for him. General Zhongwu was also present at the time, and the two men from Beiyan have also been arrested and imprisoned. Your Majesty will know once you ask."
The Minister of Justice nodded silently.
"I have found out today that the Biyue Tower is the meeting place for the spies from Northern Yan. And recently, according to the report from the Biyue Tower's manager, the Fourth Prince has been visiting frequently and is particularly fond of the tea-making girl at the Biyue Tower."
"No, that's not the case, my royal brother. The reason I went to the Biyue Tower was to investigate the spies." Zhao Chong was busy arguing.
Zhao Chongxiu's face turned gloomy: "Fourth brother, you said it wasn't you, but why is your jade pendant in the Biyue Tower?"
He still remained skeptical about the matter.
But all signs and evidence indicate that his fourth younger brother was a traitor to the country.
"Jade pendant?" Zhao Chongzheng stared in astonishment, then shook his head, "...I don't know either."
"Fourth brother, you really disappoint me."
Zhao Chongxiu was still confused, but when he thought about the possibility that his fourth brother might be collaborating with the enemy and committing treason, he became furious and shouted,
"Come here, take the fourth brother to the prison and let him be punished later!"
In an instant, a team of royal guards came forward and took Zhao Chongzheng hostage.
"There's no need to blame someone if you want to!"
Zhao Chong was trying to break free and looked at Wen Liang with eyes filled with rage, but he was still suppressed and taken to the Heavenly Prison.
...After another day, the city of Lindu was peaceful.
But things in the court are undercurrents.
Jiang Yue thought that he would be summoned by His Majesty yesterday, but he was not summoned.
Today, she wanted to buy some servants.
Although she didn't want any maids or servants, the huge general's mansion still needed someone to clean.
So he asked Lin Guo and Mu Heng to go out to the brothel to buy some servants.
The remaining Xuanwu troops have been training as usual these days.
Away from the border, their lives couldn't be easier.
Just when they thought they were about to get rusty, they were appointed by Jiang Yue:
"Wu Fei and Xue Wen, you two guard the general's mansion. The rest of the Xuanwu Army should be in plain clothes and disperse to keep an eye on the movements of the Great Jin."
After saying this, she went to the morning court.
Be careful, you won't go wrong.
The biggest issue discussed at this morning's court session was the mastermind behind Northern Yan and the war on the border.
As mentioned before, Lin Guo and Mu Heng accepted Jiang Yue's mission and said goodbye to go to the dental clinic.
On the way, Lin Guo looked in the direction of the Mu Mansion.
"I think you must have a lot of grievances in your heart."
The Mu family is wealthy and powerful.
From a young man of a noble family to a beggar in the market, Mu Heng was able to keep his original intention and not go astray. Lin Guo felt that this was very precious.
Mu Heng shook his head: "It's fate that I can meet you and Sanni."
He curled the corners of his lips slightly. At this moment, there was only one thought in his mind, which was to make himself stronger enough to compete with Mu Yun.
The two men walked towards Ya at a quick pace. On the road, they saw people walking in a hurry and rushing to the grain store at the same time.
"Isn't there enough food in Lindu City?" Lin Guo thought about the existing grain reserves in the general's mansion, and it didn't seem to be much.
Lord Li sent some food, and after that we bought as much as we ate, and there was no extra food in stock.
Mu Heng shook the purse in his hand.
"Buy more food when you come back later."
Lin Guo thought so too, and the two of them asked for directions and went to the dental clinic.
However, before he arrived at the food shop, when he passed by a grain store, he first saw the people scrambling to buy grain.
