Back to Tang Dynasty to be Emperor

The candlelight in the study room was not very bright, and Changsun Wuji buried himself in thought in the dim candlelight.He knew what happened between Changsun Bingning and Li Ke, so since she returned to Chang'an, he sent someone to monitor and follow her to see what was the relationship between them and what was the purpose between them.However, Li Ke's black-clothed guards are too powerful, and the members of "Tang" who are following Changsun Bingning are not within a mile of Li Ke's body.Therefore, every time Changsun Bingning and Li Ke met, 'Tang' could not get any valuable information from it.However, he didn't expect that this time, not only did he not get any information that was beneficial to him, but he was used by Li Ke to let Li Ke take advantage of their opportunity to track Changsun Bingning, let his own people pretend to be Changsun Bingning and then lure 'Tang' Members tracked to Chrysanthemum House.At the same time, the person who took the bait was his own son, Changsun Huan.

Now Changsun Wuji can imagine that the purpose of Li Ke's frequent meetings with Changsun Bingning these days is to attract Changsun Huan's attention, so that he can follow Changsun Bingning, and then he can plan from it.He believed that the person posing as Changsun Bingning must belong to Li Ke, and Changsun Bingning didn't even know that someone pretended to be her today to lure Changsun Huan to the Chrysanthemum Tower.

But if I want to get to the bottom of Changsun Huan's affairs, the problem lies in this place.If I want to prove that the murder of Changsun Huan was planned by Li Ke for a long time, then I must involve the pretending Changsun Bingning and 'Tang' who followed her.But I asked 'Tang' to follow the eldest grandson Bingning because of my own selfishness. If this matter was heard by the emperor, what would he think of himself?Let the people of 'Tang' follow the members belonging to 'Tang', especially those who have a high position in 'Tang' like Changsun Bingning.If all the members of 'Tang' knew that the imperial court arranged for their own people to monitor their own people, how much shock would it cause among the members of 'Tang'?Therefore, in this way, I can't expose the matter of arranging someone to follow Changsun Bingning at all. Without following this testimony and witnesses, the false evidence of Changsun Bingning cannot be established, and the trial will not only rely on Changsun Huan's one-sided words It is said that the eldest grandson Bingning he is following is a fake, someone else pretended to seduce him.

"It's such a careful plan. I know you did it and I can't dismantle your scheme. I can only watch Huan'er send Lingnan to Lingnan." Said, "Blood for blood, tooth for tooth, you are worthy of being a prince with the blood of emperors of two dynasties, I admire you. But after this battle, I have understood your methods, and it will not be so easy for you to plot against me in the future."

"Master, please see Liu Shangshu." The servant outside the study shouted.

"Liu Shangshu? Is it Liu Shangshu of the Ministry of Criminal Justice?" Changsun Wuji asked, and then ordered, "Invite him to the study quickly."

Liu Zhenghui saw the case file of Chang'an County when he was working in the afternoon. He saw that it was about the murder case of Changsun Wuji's second son, Changsun Huan, so he kept the file on his desk. I came to Changsun Wuji's study and wanted to ask about the whole story.After all, it was clearly written in the case file that Changsun Huan killed someone in the Chrysanthemum Building.Liu Zhenghui had also heard a little about where the Chrysanthemum Tower was. He couldn't believe that the son of Changsun Wuji would have such a special habit.

"Auxiliary machine, take a look at the dossier submitted by the Chang'an County Government in the evening." Liu Zhenghui handed the dossier to Changsun Wuji.Changsun Wuji wanted to read this dossier in the Chang'an county government office today but didn't see it. At this time, Liu Zhenghui brought the dossier privately out of the Ministry of Punishment for him to read. He nodded gratefully and began to look through the dossier seriously.Changsun Wuji read it very carefully. He wanted to find the flaws in the file, but he was disappointed after reading the file. There were no flaws in this case.However, the Chang'an county government's judgment on the outcome of the trial of this case was neither light nor heavy, which was reasonable and reasonable, so that he himself had no complaints.

"Auxiliary machine, auxiliary machine," Liu Zhenghui met Changsun Wuji without saying a word, reminded Changsun Wuji softly, and when Changsun Wuji came back to his senses, he continued to ask, "Are you okay? The reason why you look ugly this afternoon is because Know about this?"

"Brother Liu, what do you think of this case?" Changsun Wuji asked. He had already given up the idea of ​​overturning the case, but when Liu Zhenghui visited him, he rekindled the idea of ​​overturning the case.Liu Zhenghui is the minister of the Ministry of punishment and manages the affairs of the Ministry of punishment.Therefore, his views on the case have a lot to do with whether he reverses the case.

"Auxiliary machine, I can only tell you with regret that the Ministry of Criminal Justice has no objection to the trial and verdict of this case." Liu Zhenghui sighed, "I am not the only one who has the final say in the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and there is nothing I can do!" Then, Liu Zhenghui After a pause, he continued to ask, "Auxiliary machine, did your son really do such a thing?" Although he himself couldn't believe that Changsun Huan would go to the Chrysanthemum Tower to have fun, but it was clearly written in black and white on the dossier. It's all up to him not to believe it.

"I knew he wouldn't let me reverse the case easily. It's just that I lost my heart to save my son." Changsun Wuji said to himself, which made Liu Zhenghui on the side puzzled.

"Brother Liu, do you really believe that Huan'er has that habit of killing people in the Chrysanthemum Tower?" Changsun Wuji stared at Liu Zhenghui and asked.

"The auxiliary machine means that someone planned it deliberately, and then let the son fall into his trap?" Liu Zhenghui couldn't help but picked up the case file and read it in detail. After reading it, he shook his head in disbelief and said, "Auxiliary Chances are, I don't see any signs that this case is a deliberate plan to get your son into his trap. Therefore, the Ministry of Criminal Justice will handle this case impartially, and will issue an official document from the Chang'an County Government on the distribution of your son to Lingnan the day after tomorrow. The auxiliary machine can forgive me." Liu Zhenghui has a close relationship with Changsun Wuji, this case can't help him, and he feels a little guilty.

Changsun Wuji naturally knew that based on the dossier, there was no trace of planning at all, because the clue of pretending to be Changsun Bingning was missing.He sighed secretly in his heart, and after a long time he raised his head and found that Liu Zhenghui was looking at him worriedly, so he tried to calm down and said, "Thank you brother Liu for letting me know the truth of the case tonight. Thank you Brother Liu here. This case is reasonable, since the child committed the crime of homicide, he should be punished by law, Brother Liu don't need to mind this matter."

"Brother Auxiliary Machine, you really understand righteousness, and Liu admires it." Seeing that Changsun Wuji had returned to his usual demeanor, Liu Zhenghui couldn't help admiring his self-cultivation and cultivation, "If there is nothing wrong with the auxiliary machine, I will first Farewell."

"Please!" Changsun Wuji waved his hand and sent Liu Zhenghui to the door, only to return to the mansion when he saw his bicycle frame disappear into the night.When he returned to the mansion, Changsun Wuji hesitated outside Zhou's door. He didn't know how to explain this matter to his wife.After thinking for a long time, he stomped his foot hard, and then stepped into Zhou's room.

Changsun Bingning returned to her room from Zhou's courtyard, her heart could not be calm for a long time.She didn't expect that Changsun Huan would go to a dirty and indecent place like the Chrysanthemum Tower and kill people there.However, this is the problem that confuses her. She knows what kind of virtue Changsun Huan is. Planting obscene things, no matter how much she hated him, she would not believe such a fact.

"Could it be him?" Changsun Bingning suddenly thought of Li Ke, she knew that Li Ke had already figured out the relationship between her situation in the house and Changsun Huan, and he must have punished Changsun Huan for herself, Changsun Bingning thought so. "You are the only one in the world who cares about me so much and defends me so much!" Changsun Bingning said leisurely.Then she took out the portrait of a lady painted with her own portrait that Li Ke gave her from the dark compartment of the dressing table, gently opened the scroll and read softly, "Chunxin will not share flowers, every inch of lovesickness and every inch of gray. Your Highness , what are you doing? Bing Ning misses you very much."

The eldest grandson Bingning missed Li Ke, and Li Ke naturally couldn't feel it, because at this time in the study of the Han Palace, Li Ke stared at the note in front of him with a pale face and remained silent.Yang En was standing beside him. When he saw Li Ke's expression, he didn't know how to dissuade him. After being silent for a long time, he finally couldn't help saying, "Your Highness, don't be careless, Miss Hou's condition will be fine. .”

"Old Yang, this king is not worried about Ruoyi's condition, but thinking that when she is sick and needs others to care and take care of her the most, only the cold walls and a few submissive maids are with her. How would you feel in your heart?" Li Ke said with a lonely expression, "She definitely hopes that someone can talk with her, and someone can guard her day and night. This king clearly knows what she wants most at this time , what is most needed, but this king can't give it to her. Old Yang, can you understand how this king feels?"

"Your Highness, Miss Hou is now the prospective princess, please be careful!" Yang En sighed, Li Ke had apparently been freed from the marriage that Hou Ruoyi promised to betroth the prince, but in fact he had never since. He was freed from the incident, but his strong appearance confused everyone.

"Hey! Mr. Yang, what do you think I should do? What should I do?" Li Ke asked Yang En helplessly, but Yang En didn't know how to answer. In silence.
