Chapter 144 The truth

Emperor Yongning wanted to find out clearly, but how to find out?

Wu Yong and Lu Guiyin, two officials who have been immersed in the court for decades, will naturally respond accordingly.

Moreover, Zheng Ji and Jiang Baoshan were helping behind the scenes. From the moment Qi Wenyan filed the complaint, their counterattack had already begun.

Because of the bonus of the bed crossbow, this counterattack is very effective.

At the very least, they were given enough time to explain themselves when Qi Wenyan passed out.

Although the people behind Qi Wenyan had already planned the Lian Nu Arrow from the very beginning, these arrangements were vulnerable to Zheng Ji's counterattack.

After reliving his whole life, how could Zheng Ji lose to the person behind Qi Wenyan?

Not to mention, there is also a Du Feng sentence!

Although Du Fengju now looks like Mr. Du Duan, he is the youngest son of Tutor Du Tong!

When it comes to being familiar with the ups and downs of the imperial court, who knows it better than the Taifu?

When Qi Wenyan moved, Du Fengju and the network laid out by Zheng Ji also moved.

Therefore, he can be one step ahead of Qi Wenyan.

Whether it was Wuge Cangku, Mr. Du Duan, or officials from Weiwei Temple, Wu Yong and Lu Guiyin had ways to deal with several key points that Qi Wenyan testified against.

This matter involves the Wuge's treasury, so it is natural that the Deputy Pavilion Master Zheng Qiong must be called in for questioning.

Zheng Qiong is the deputy head of the Wuge, so he is certainly no stranger to officials in the court, but he was still shocked when he heard the call from the Yushitai.

"What? The weapons stolen from Weiwei Temple are actually hidden in the Wuge's vault?" Zheng Qiong blurted out.

How can this be?

Wuge's library does contain some equipment, military secrets and other blueprints, but Wuge spent a lot of manpower and material resources to search for these, and they all have their origins.

How could the weapons newly developed by Weiwei Temple be in the pavilion warehouse again?

Zhang Yansu saw that Zheng Qiong's surprised expression did not seem to be fake, and continued: "I heard that Mr. Du Duan of Wuge had close contact with the officials of Weiwei Temple, and recently he often came in and out of Wuge's treasury, so he took the opportunity to send Weiwei Temple to

The weapons are in the warehouse of the martial arts pavilion."

Of course there will be evidence for Zhang Yansu's words.

Because of Qi Wenyan's testimony, the court officials easily found the missing parts and drawings of the repeating crossbow arrows from somewhere in the Wuge's warehouse.

These were all placed in front of Zheng Qiong.

Zheng Qiong looked at the crossbow arrows and drawings in front of her, and was completely confused. She subconsciously retorted: "Impossible! The gentleman from Wuge cannot be related to the stolen weapons from Weiwei Temple. This must be a frame-up!"

"Vice-Governor Zheng, I heard that the Wuge Treasury has authority. Mr. Du Duan is not qualified to enter at all. It was you who gave the order for him to enter and exit the Wuge Treasury. Could it be that you were also involved in this matter?"

Zheng Qiong shook his head: "Master Zhang, I did let Mr. Du Duan enter the Wuge's vault, but this was under the order of the Pavilion Master, to familiarize him with the Wuge's secret martial arts in advance so that he can train better in other places.

It has nothing to do with promoting Wuge soldiers."

"The Pavilion Master's order?"

"Yes, it was conveyed by Uncle Wang next to the Pavilion Master." Zheng Qiong said.

"So that Deputy Pavilion Zheng knows that the Jingzhao Mansion received a report yesterday that a man fell into the river and drowned after drinking yesterday. After verification, it was found that this man was the servant of the Pavilion Master, the Uncle Wang you mentioned."

When Zheng Qiong heard this, his face turned extremely ugly.

All in all, how could Uncle Wang drown?

With his intelligence, he immediately realized that the order given by Uncle Wang was probably false.

In fact, he felt strange before. Why did the Pavilion Master let Mr. Du Duan enter the Wuge's vault?

It was because he was careless and did not verify it.

But how could he have imagined that someone would target Mr. Wuge, who had just arrived in Jingzhao?

He was keenly aware that both Mr. Du Duan and Wuge Cangku were implicated by Weiwei Temple.

This bureau was originally set up against Weiwei Temple, but why did it involve Wuge and Mr. Du Duan?

Mr. Du Duan has only been in Jingzhao for such a short time and has not offended anyone. Why is this?

Zheng Qiong couldn't figure it out, but that didn't stop him from speaking out at the Yushitai.

Zhang Yansu had already heard about the bed crossbow from Emperor Yongning and understood the emperor's intention very well.

Because there is a bed crossbow, an important weapon of the country, and the officials of Weiwei Temple have made great contributions, it is impossible for the two officials Wu Yong and Lu Guiyin to be questioned.

I heard that the person who developed this crossbow was none other than Mr. Du Duan from Wuge.

Perhaps, this is the reason why Mr. Du Duan was involved in the Weiwei Temple incident?

In Zhang Yansu's opinion, this is the most likely possibility.

Perhaps Mr. Du Duan's talent in developing weapons has been exposed before he even noticed it?

However, Du Fengju knew that was not the case.

He has also been thinking about why Mr. Du Duan was involved.

He thought about it over and over, and when facing the smiling Zheng Ji, he vaguely had an idea.

On the first day when His Majesty Chang Ding came to Wuge, she asked him if he would be her husband. I believe many people know this.

In the eyes of many people, Mr. Du Duan had the favor of Princess Changding.

This is why Mr. Du Duan is a chess piece.

To put it bluntly, the key is His Highness Changding.

Weapons were stolen from Weiwei Temple. Officials like Wu Yong and Lu Guiyin will definitely be held accountable. In addition, I'm afraid they will still have to deal with His Highness Chang Ding.

Because Lu Guiyin and Jiang Baoshan even became friends.

Although no one knows this yet, Du Fengju believes that the person behind it must have laid the groundwork.

As long as the court continues to investigate, the matter will be revealed.

It seems that Her Highness Changding is the target of the imperial court, and there are many people who want to deal with her.

Fortunately, His Highness Changding had the foresight and had already dealt with them one by one.

The people who launched Qi Wenyan thought they had a chance to win, but little did they know that all of this was under the control of Changding Palace.

When things have reached this stage, as long as there is a bed crossbow, Qi Wenyan and the people behind him will definitely not succeed.

I believe that at this time, Wu Yong and Lu Guiyin will also take the opportunity to find out who is behind Qi Wenyan.

Since Qi Wenyan went to Yushitai to complain, he didn't expect to survive.

In his opinion, losing this life, involving the entire Weiwei Temple officials, and even implicating Jiang Baoshan and Princess Changding was really a good deal.

However, he never imagined that when he woke up from the coma caused by the punishment, what was waiting for him was not the news that the Weiwei Temple officials were convicted and imprisoned, but the good news that Weiwei Temple had made meritorious service!

The officials of Weiwei Temple were not only innocent, but actually had meritorious service. How is that possible? What part of the problem is this?!

Qi Wenyan couldn't accept this result at all, and he vomited blood three times in prison.
