Li Junxian was sitting in the hall, with two deputies standing aside. He himself took a sip of tea and waited for Wei Ting to come to meet him.
Although the "Hundred Cavalry Division" has great power, it is often as if "I am here in person". No matter the ministers or the emperor's relatives, they can arrest and interrogate them at any time, but His Majesty Li Er also knows the principle of "hardness is easy to break"
, we will not neglect the restraints of the "Hundred Knights" in the slightest, so as not to cultivate a monster who protects the imperial power, and then acts arbitrarily, causing trouble to the government, and everyone's expression changes when they talk about it, making the law seem to be nothing.
What's more, now that His Majesty has personally marched to Liaodong, the prince in the capital is supervising the country, and there are frequent wars in Hexi and the Western Regions. The imperial power is unstable and the country is not solid. How can the "Baiqisi" dare to act unscrupulously, making the situation even more tense?
Even though he knew that His Highness Prince Ji sent someone to report that someone had evil intentions and might murder Fang Jun, in the absence of real evidence, Li Junxian could only act in a low-key manner.
The matter involves the wife of Taichang Qing Wei Ting, and Wei Ting's wife is the daughter of the eldest grandson's family. Two influential top families are implicated at once. A little carelessness can easily trigger a huge backlash.
The consequences could be disastrous……
This was something His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had never tired of sternly admonishing, and Li Junxian did not dare to slack off in the slightest.
As long as the danger can be eliminated, the best result is to nip the possibility of "collaborating with the enemy, treason, and killing ministers" in the bud and preventing it from expanding.
Therefore, even if one visits Wei Ting's wife to find out what's going on, he can only offer courtesy first and then attack, or he can only offer courtesy but not attack...
After waiting for a long time, Li Junxian frowned and became impatient, then he heard footsteps coming from the door. A servant of the Wei family called at the door: "General Li, the master of the house is here."
Li Junxian did not dare to trust him. Taichangqing was one of the nine ministers, and he was extremely noble. He was not the only general who could compare with him, so he stood up to greet him.
Unexpectedly, Wei Ting had just walked to the door, and before Li Junxian handed over his hand to greet him, he heard a faint sound of wailing from outside.
Li Junxian's heart suddenly twitched, his eyebrows instantly raised, and he ignored the courtesy and asked: "Taichang Qing, where is the crying coming from?"
Wei Ting looked cold and said calmly: "I don't know either..."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a maid running quickly and screamed: "Master, the mistress is dead..."
Li Junxian was shocked all over, his eyes flashed, he stared at Wei Ting, and said in a cold voice: "Taichang Qing, do you want to deceive me?"
"Hundred Cavalry Division" was dispatched, if Ruoru came in person, and just as he came to the door, the Changsun family died. How is it different from the crime of deceiving the emperor?
It’s really too rampant!
Wei Ting was not afraid, but looked surprised and anxious, saying: "General, wait here for now, I'll go take a look first!"
After saying that, without waiting for Li Junxian's response, he turned around and ran towards the back house. He did have the air of someone who had suddenly heard the bad news...
Li Junxian, however, didn't believe it at all. He snorted and waved his hand behind him. One of the two deputies followed him towards the back house, while the other quickly ran out of the house and took away the one who was left outside the house.
The soldiers of the team brought them in. The servants of the Wei family tried to stop them, but were dispersed by the soldiers. They had to watch helplessly as the soldiers of the "Hundred Cavalry Division" rushed in in a mighty manner.
Li Junxian strode to the back house and saw the female members of the Wei family in the yard, kneeling for a long time by the wall, crying bitterly.
Li Junxian's heart sank, and when he came to the door of the bedroom, he was blocked by several servants of the Wei family: "The general stopped, the mistress passed away, and she was evasive. The master of the house was so sad that he was afraid that he would not be able to receive guests..."
"Choke!"
Before he finished speaking, the deputy beside Li Junxian had already pulled out the sword from his waist. The sharp blade was placed on the servant's neck. He only waited for an order to have his head removed.
The servants of the Wei family were so frightened that they lost their battle.
Wei Ting's voice came from inside the door: "General Li has his royal life on his side, so why should we avoid taboos? Please come in quickly."
The servants quickly dispersed, allowing Li Junxian and the soldiers behind him to go straight into the bedroom.
It stands to reason that if a woman dies in her bed, her husband must avoid it. However, since the Changsun family is involved in a secret that may shake up the world, her death is definitely not only her own business, let alone Wei Wei's.
"Hundred Qisi" will definitely intervene in the family's own affairs.
Li Junxian stepped inside and saw a slim woman wearing ordinary home clothes, lying sideways on the bed. The sheets were messy, and there was blood gushing from her mouth and nose everywhere.
Contaminated, obviously struggling.
At this time, he was motionless and breathless.
The deputy next to him stepped forward, tested the woman's breathing with his fingers, then opened her eyelids to check her pupils, and finally pressed the artery on her neck for a moment, then withdrew his hand and said to Li Junxian: "I just died, I must have been hit."
The poison of seduction."
Li Junxian put his hands behind his back and stared at Wei Ting.
It is actually a troublesome thing to capture the Changsun family back to the lobby of "Hundred Cavalry Division". If this woman is a loser, talks about everything, or even deliberately bites her in order to get away, it will make "Baiqisi"
"Qisi" was very embarrassed. She couldn't just come to catch one after she bit one out, right?
As the same saying goes, the mastermind behind "collaborating with the enemy, treason, and killing ministers" must be investigated and the conspiracy must be cut off, but the matter must not be made too big and cause shock to the court and cannot be brought to an end.
However, now that Changsun is dead, it is even more troublesome.
Who is the mastermind behind it? What is the conspiracy? At what stage has it been carried out, and who are involved in collaborating with the enemy and treason?
Once and for all.
Even if Li Junxian knew that someone from the Changsun family must be behind it, without any evidence, who could come to identify the Changsun family?
Not to mention the prince, not even your majesty can do that.
That will force the Changsun family to rebel, and it will also gain a good reputation for "killing heroes and having to rebel", and will be hailed as a "strong family" by the world...
Therefore, Li Junxian was particularly angry at this moment.
Facing Li Junxian's anger, Wei Ting felt a little weak in his heart, but he forced himself to show a sad face, rubbed his eyes, shed a few tears, and choked up: "When we were chatting earlier, Zhuo Jing said
I once went to the palace to pay homage to Concubine Wei, and I accidentally said some words that I shouldn't have mentioned. I was very angry, so I yelled at her and taught her a lesson. She would definitely harm Concubine Wei one day.
He killed our Wei family... It was just an angry word, but I didn't expect that Zhuo Jing would be so stubborn that he would take poison when he came back... Wuwu, this is really my hatred! But people can't be resurrected, there are always various ways
Regret is also difficult to save life and death..."
As he spoke, he burst into tears.
The Wei family members inside and outside the door also cried endlessly, their cries shaking the sky.
Li Junxian felt like his head was buzzing, wishing he could kill the cunning Wei Ting with one knife, but he could only suppress his anger, nodded and said: "There is a sudden death in the house, Taichang Qing, please show your condolences and submit...
...It's just that Taichang Qing is a smart person, and naturally knows the truth that "the wind rises from the bottom of Qingping". Some things will not appear suddenly and require a process of development and transmission. Moreover, the most abominable thing in the world is not killing someone with a borrowed knife, but killing someone with a borrowed knife.
It's a knife hidden behind his back... I will go back and report to His Highness right now, so that Mr. Taichang can take care of himself."
After that, regardless of Wei Ting's reaction, he led his soldiers out of Wei's house and went to report to the prince.
After Li Junxian left, Wei Ting stood in the bedroom, watching his mother-in-law come forward to cleanse Changsun's face and body, and waiting for the tailor in the house to rush to make the shroud. His heart ached, and he was angry.
Full.
"Master, do you want to go to various families in Beijing to report the funeral?"
The steward of the mansion stepped forward cautiously and took a look at the master's face. Seeing that he was more angry than sad, he was naturally curious, but he did not dare to ask any more questions.
Just now, the mistress was called to the main hall by the owner of the family. Not long after, the mistress returned to her bed alone and committed suicide by taking poison. What was the inside story? It is really curious...
Wei Ting couldn't bear to see Changsun's pale face, and felt that the whole bed was filled with a sad and sorrowful atmosphere. He walked out of the bed with his hands behind his back, stood in the yard outside the door, gritted his teeth and said: "Of course
If you want to report the funeral, the first family should go to Changsun's house. Go there in person and tell Changsun Yan to come over and kowtow to my wife!"
"...Here!"
The steward was stunned for a moment, thinking that the head of the family was too sad and confused. The mistress was just a daughter of the eldest grandson's family. The eldest grandson Yan was the biological son of the eldest grandson Wuji. And now that several of his brothers were dead, he was about to become
How could the eldest son and direct grandson of the Changsun family, the heir to the head of the family, come to kowtow to the married daughter of a branch of the family?
But when I looked up and saw the master of the house's clear face covered with a ferocious livid look, I was frightened in my heart and quickly agreed, not daring to ask any more questions.
