"I raised secret guards privately, I deserve to die!" At this time, Yingge had nothing to hide anymore, and he directly admitted the matter.
"Yes, you really deserve to die, including your secret guards!" Yinzhen hates the big families for raising secret guards. Although this kind of thing is often forbidden, as long as it is discovered, it will be banned and eliminated.
"I deserve to die!" Apart from these three words, Yingge didn't seem to know what to say, and compared to yesterday, he looked much older, and there were even more silver threads in his hair.
Yinzhen stared at him, his nose slightly open, obviously he was not calm in his heart. After a long time, he suddenly said: "Yingge, was it you alone, or was Hongshi also involved? As long as you are willing to answer truthfully, I can
Consider sparing your life."
Hongshi's heart tightened instantly because of these words. Yinzhen was clearly trying to seduce Yingge. As long as there was a slight flaw in Yingge's mind or his desire for survival prevailed, he would confess what he had done before.
Everything becomes useless.
Fortunately, what he was worried about did not happen. Although there was a trace of ripples in Yingge's eyes, he quickly calmed down, "Everything was done by me alone and has nothing to do with the second elder brother. Please don't do it, Your Majesty."
The second elder brother was wronged. The fourth elder brother, on the other hand, deliberately let Pan Rongxuan say those treacherous words. He clearly wanted to take this opportunity to get rid of the second elder brother altogether. His thoughts and intentions are really terrible."
Hongli suppressed his anger and said in a cold voice: "Yingge, you are still saying these words to sow discord when you are about to die. If you want to say that you are terrible, who can be as terrible as you?"
A trace of resentment flashed across Yingge's eyes, "As the saying goes, when a person is dying, his words are also kind; I am dying myself, so why bother to stir things up, it won't do me any good, I just tell the truth what I know.
Just say it."
This time, before Hongli could speak again, Yinzhen had already called in the palace guards and ordered them to take Yingge to the prison to await disposal. Then, he asked Pan Rongxuan and Xiayue to retreat. Apart from him and Sixi, there were only other people in the palace.
The two Hongli brothers were left.
I don’t know how long it took, but a long and endless voice sounded in Yangxin Hall, "Hongshi, should I believe you?"
Hongshi smiled bitterly and said: "What Huang Ama asked I, Chen, means that Huang Ama does not believe I, in my heart. In this case, what I said is superfluous, so why waste my words."
Yinzhen didn't say anything, he just let out a heavy sigh. The words he just said were not so much a question to Hongshi as a question to himself.
He couldn't completely believe Hongshi, but he couldn't say he didn't believe it at all. This dilemma made him rarely have trouble.
At this time, Hongshi suddenly spoke again, "Emperor Ama, before you deal with me, can you promise me one thing?"
Yinzhen said nothing, let alone agreed. He just motioned with his eyes to continue speaking. Hongshi kowtowed and said solemnly: "For my uncle's crime, he should be executed, but he is my uncle after all.
I do all this for the sake of my sons and ministers, regardless of the emperor.
No matter how Ama deals with him, please forgive him and spare his life." After a moment's pause, he added: "I know that I am sorry for my fourth brother by doing this, so I am willing to die to appease the resentment in my fourth brother's heart.
I just ask Emperor Ama to spare my uncle’s life.”
His words touched Yinzhen greatly, and he said in confusion: "He tried his best to get rid of the relationship with you and keep you out of this matter. It would be better for you to take the initiative to get involved, or do you think I won't kill you?"
you."
"I am not testing Emperor Ama. Every word I say is true. All the troubles are caused by me. I am the heinous sinner." Don't look at his calm appearance, but in fact he has been in his heart.
If Yinzhen doesn't believe him, he will regret it.
Hongli tried several times to tell Hongshi about Hongshi's dealings with him in Fuzhou, but in the end he did not make a sound. It was not that he was pedantic and obsessed with that promise, but that it was not the right time now. Hongshi repeatedly showed weakness. If he
Pressing forward step by step will give people the feeling of adding insult to injury and taking advantage of the opportunity to kill Hongshi. Even if it is originally true, it will give people the feeling of being fake at this time.
"You are indeed guilty." When Yinzhen uttered these five words, Hongshi felt as if he was struck by lightning and almost fainted. How could this happen? It shouldn't be. Huang Ama shouldn't have said this. Is it possible? In fact, he was not ready at all.
Do you have the idea of killing yourself, and now you are going with the flow and sending yourself to death, so as to pave the way for Hongli in the future?
If this is the case, Huang Ama is really cruel, so cruel!
Hongshi secretly clenched his fists, wishing he could rush forward and kill Yinzhen now, but unfortunately he couldn't. Even if he really killed Yinzhen, he would never live. Therefore, the only thing he could do was to be patient and wait for what he didn't know.
destiny.
"Guilty, but the crime is not what you said, but the crime of interceding for Yingge. How can the people be angry without death for his crime!" When this sentence fell in Hongshi's ears, his clenched hands slowly loosened.
, Yinzhen finally chose to believe him, but it was really risky.
On that side, there was a trace of anger and disappointment in Hongli's eyes. He didn't expect that this time he had the right time and place, but he still allowed Hongshi to escape and only caught one Yingge. He was really unwilling to do so.
Hongshi hurriedly said: "Erchen said that all of Yingge's mistakes were all because of him. Erchen really couldn't bear to see him die. No matter what, he is Erchen's uncle. He has been with him since he was a child.
You are very kind to me, please..."
Before he could finish speaking, Yinzhen said: "I have my own opinion on this matter. You don't have to say anything. You can go back to the palace and have a good time. Now Hongzhou is back and went to Zhejiang. He seems to have made some progress.
From now on, the affairs of the Criminal Department will be handed over to him, and you don’t have to work so hard. The Criminal Department has a lot of things to do, so I think you will have to work very hard these days."
Hongshi was startled, was Yinzhen trying to reduce his power? Without thinking about it, he quickly said: "Although the Ministry of Justice has more things to do, I can still handle it. Although the fifth brother has extraordinary abilities, he has little experience after all.
If he lacks what he has, I'm afraid it's not appropriate to take charge of the Ministry of Justice rashly."
"If you don't have experience, you can learn slowly. Isn't that how you came here in the first place? Besides, the ministers and ministers of the Ministry of Justice are all here. Let them teach Hong Zhou. Are you right?" Yinzhen looked at it.
Hongshi showed a gentle smile.
But Hongshi saw the essence behind this smile, indifference, endless, indifference that seemed to freeze people into ice cubes. He... did not fully trust himself after all, so even though he let himself go, he wanted to cut it off
The power in his hands, cutting off the errands of the Ministry of Justice, is only the first step, there will be a second step, and a third step, until he has no power in his hands and becomes an idle prince, just like Yunhu in the past...
