In fact, King Guangping is more difficult to trace than Hou Ji. They can thank Hou Ji for being able to find King Guangping this time.
Yin Li said: "Hou Ji not only sent people to Luozhou, but also sent people to Xiangzhou."
So they stared at Hou Ji, and then noticed King Guangping, who had always kept a low profile. Tang He went to investigate in person, and this investigation was serious.
Yin Li didn't know if King Guangping would hate Hou Ji when he found out. Anyway, he was very grateful to him at the moment, otherwise he wouldn't know when this case would be investigated.
You know, they have been investigating the case for forty-eight days since His Majesty handed it over to them.
The emperor lowered his head and flipped through the confession presented by Yin Li, and suddenly became angry, "Send all the witnesses and evidence."
After a pause, he continued: "Xuanfeng Shangshu and Tang Qing enter the palace."
This matter was not trivial, and he had to give an explanation to the courtiers. Hou Ji had done a lot of credit, so it was impossible to just take it away. He would definitely be tried.
Yin Li responded and said: "Your Majesty, those stones are poisonous..."
"Xuan comes in," the emperor said expressionlessly: "This moment and a half can't be poisoned."
Yin Li agreed and then bowed and left.
He returned to Jingzhao Mansion and asked his men, "How is the iron box you made made?"
"Just welded."
Yin Li nodded, "Pack on the stones and carry the three people into the palace."
Master Tang was sitting in the office drinking tea and chatting with Man Bao and the others. When they heard something going on outside, they came out to watch together.
Yin Li looked up and saw them.
Mr. Tang quickly brought the two of them forward to salute and asked with a smile, "Sir, is the snake frightened?"
Yin Li glanced at Bai Shan and Zhou Man and said, "The prince has passed with the imperial guards."
The snake couldn't help being frightened. He was about to run away!
Ever since the secret of the stone was discovered by the prince and others, he has been restless, so he restrained himself a lot and did not dare to stare at the prince and Jingzhao Mansion blatantly.
But just by quietly watching, he also knew that many people had been arrested, and those people were more or less related to him. As long as he followed the clues, he would be traced one day.
Therefore, he has always been a little worried. His godsons even persuaded him to leave Beijing and return to Liangzhou directly. "Your Majesty, my father has followed him through life and death, and even saved him on the battlefield. However, because of a few slanderous words from Huang Kou'er,
Treat dad, why don't dad turn against him?"
"His Li family's world is reversed. Dad's martial arts is not weaker than his, so he can do it."
To be honest, Hou Ji was a little moved, but he didn't dare.
Today is different from the past. Back then, the Li family was only able to survive because of the late emperor's cruelty, which made the people of the world uneasy and uprisings continued in various places. Now, not to mention Haiyanheqing, at least the people can live and work in peace and contentment. Who can rebel with him?
He is not a coward in battle, but His Majesty has many capable men under his command.
While he was hesitating, someone came to report early this morning that Jingzhao Mansion had brought back several people from Gaochang. They seemed to be the descendants of those craftsmen, and among them there were even people close to the eldest prince of Gaochang.
Hou Ji panicked immediately. He quickly asked his godsons, "Have you heard from the third and fourth princes?"
"No, the fourth prince met our people and had the intention of forming an alliance. However, as soon as the prince's poisoning case came out, Xiangzhou expelled our people." He added, "The third prince's place, our people were detained.
Got off."
"I'm asking the people who were sent out the second time."
"Dad, that man probably just arrived in Luozhou now."
"Dad, let's run away first. Once we leave the capital, the sky is high and birds can fly. Where can we go?"
"Yes, we can keep the green hills and don't have to worry about running out of firewood. Dad, we can go to Liangzhou. If that doesn't work, we can go to the Western Regions, or we can go to Tubo."
"That's right, with dad's talents, Tubo will definitely sweep the bed to welcome him."
Hou Ji struggled fiercely in his heart, and finally gritted his teeth, stamped his feet, stood up and said, "Let's go!"
So Hou Ji took a group of his godsons and said they were going to the capital for hunting. Before leaving, he called his youngest son.
Following Yin Li's order, the people who were watching Hou Ji outside were stunned for a moment and then quickly called people back to warn him, and he quickly followed.
Yin Li, who thought everything was safe, had someone carry him into the palace, when someone rushed to report, "Sir, Hou Ji took his godsons outside the capital and made noise in the world, saying they were going hunting."
Yin Li's face sank, "Spring hunting?"
After a winter, animals in the wild are not only hungry and thin, but also very irritable because of hunger. Not only are they difficult to fight, but they are also very ferocious. Who is stupid enough to go hunting in spring?
And hunting is prohibited in spring!
Yin Li asked: "Did you see the prince and the imperial guards on the road?"
"I didn't see it. I took the shortcut all the way back from the Hou Mansion."
While Yin Li frowned, another person rushed to report, "Sir, Hou Ji and others left the inner city toward the west gate a quarter of an hour ago."
Mr. Tang couldn't help but stepped forward, "Sir..."
Yin Li had already made a decisive decision: "Go to the third camp to mobilize people, and immediately go out of the city to capture Hou Ji. If there is resistance, he will be punished as treason."
Yin Li turned to Tang He and said, "Master Xiao Tang, it's up to you to take these people and things into the palace."
Some of his subordinates had already brought his armor and weapons, and he took them one by one. He put on his armor as he walked, and one of his subordinates brought his horse.
Man Bao and Bai Shan stood aside and watched many people running back and forth, but they were still orderly. When Yin Li arrived in front of the horse, several guards immediately helped him put on his armor and waited for him to get on the horse and leave.
Yin Li and others left quickly. Not to mention Bai Shan, even Man Bao was starry-eyed, "It's really amazing."
Mr. Tang nodded with deep understanding.
At this moment, Man Bao and Bai Shan finally started to feel regretful, "If Yin You is also in good health, will he also become a famous general in the future?"
Mr. Tang smiled and said: "Is this considered powerful? You have never seen Duke Wei."
He said with some yearning: "Gong Wei is the number one among the generals. By the way, Hou Ji learned the art of war from Duke Wei."
Bai Shan was curious, "Are they masters and disciples? I have never heard anyone in Guozi School say that the two of them have any intersection."
Mr. Tang also came from the Guozi School, and he knew the situation in the Guozi School. A group of students liked to talk about the affairs of the ministers and families of the DPRK.
There are more gossips than restaurants and teahouses.
He smiled and said: "Their relationship is not very good. Your Majesty asked Hou Ji to study with Duke Wei. Hou Ji once sued Duke Wei, saying that he wanted to rebel because Duke Wei did not teach carefully and did not teach the art of war."
But Duke Wei also said that Hou Ji wanted to rebel because the Central Plains was stable and the military skills he taught him were enough to control the barbarians, but he was still not satisfied, which shows that he had rebel intentions."
Mr. Tang said: "But your Majesty doesn't believe it."
Bai Shan's face was full of doubts, "Is it so easy to accuse someone of treason? You can just say it casually?"
Mr. Tang said meaningfully: "They are just veterans around your majesty. If we are to say something, of course we must have evidence."
These people made great achievements with the emperor, went through life and death together, and crawled and rolled in the army together. In his father's words, His Majesty slept with them, ate with them, peed and pooped with them, and you blocked the knife for me.
, I have chopped arrows for you, and my affection is incomparable to those of them.
So they can speak casually, but they can't speak without restraint.
