Tang Ning held a letter in her hand from Song Yi, the Minister of Punishment.
The Ministry of Punishment has confirmed that a jailer named Xiao Gui in the Tianyao Prison had contact with the one-armed housekeeper of the Tang Mansion, and that jailer was the one who had a conflict with Tang Zhaoqi on the street.
The Tang family obviously had something to say to the man in prison, but under the strict protection of the Ministry of Punishment, no one was allowed to visit him, so the message could only be conveyed in this way.
A chief officer from the Criminal Department came over. He looked up at Tang Ning and asked cautiously: "Master Tang, Master Shangshu asked me to ask you whether you want Xiao Gui to confront the Tang family..."
Tangning smiled and said, "No need, let's see what they want to do first."
He also wants to see what other options the Tang family has. The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. Although no matter what they do, the result is destined, but they might as well give them some hope first, so that in the end, they will have greater success.
gap.
Hearing this, the head of the Criminal Department nodded and said, "Then I will resign first."
The head of the Criminal Department had just left for a quarter of an hour when Xiao Jue strode in from the outside and said dissatisfied: "You didn't tell me such a big thing, you are so mean!"
Since Xiao Jue's wedding, Tang Ning hasn't seen him much. She probably has to serve Lu Ya at home and has no free time.
He glanced at Xiao Jue and said, "What's the use of telling you?"
"Don't look down on others!" Xiao Jue patted the table and reminded: "Don't forget that I am also General Zuo Xiaowei..."
Tangning looked at him and asked, "Do you really want to help me?"
Xiao Jue twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "That's still false. I, Mr. Xiao, have always been willing to go out of his way to protect my friends..."
Tang Ning thought for a while and said, "How about you bring five hundred guards, crush the Tang family, and bring the heads of Tang Huai and Tang Qi to me?"
Xiao Jue looked at him, thought for a moment, and asked: "Lu Ya always likes to eat sour food these days. Do you think she will have a son in the future?"
…
Lu Ya's stomach has obviously begun to perk up. Xiao Jue brought her to Tang's house today to relieve her boredom.
It happened that Xiao Ru Xiaoyi and Tang Yaoyao were both at home, and the weather was good. Qing'er had someone set up a table in the inner courtyard, and the four of them gathered around to play mahjong for fun.
Tang Ning and Xiao Jue were sitting in the pavilion in the outer courtyard, separated from the inner courtyard by a moon gate.
Xiao Jue looked at him and asked: "If you do this, you won't be afraid of offending His Majesty. You must know that what Your Majesty dislikes the most is when the same parties oppose different parties and fight within the court..."
Tangning said calmly: "Then let's try and see if His Majesty will get angry."
In fact, this attack on the Tang family was also his test of Chen Huang. He wanted to see where Chen Huang's bottom line was and what kind of mentality he had towards the Tang family.
Seeing his indifferent expression, Xiao Jue waved and said, "You have your own ideas. If you need my help, just tell me."
"There is one thing." Tangning thought for a while and said, "You and your wife should try to come to my house as little as possible these days."
"Why, are you afraid that Lu Ya will irritate your wife?" Xiao Jue looked at Tang Ning, finally straightened his spine and said, "At first, you said I couldn't do it, but now look, who can't do it?"
"Let's not talk about this anymore." Tangning waved her hand and asked casually, "Have you been holding it back these days?"
Xiao Jue had lived for nearly twenty years before he realized what it was like to be a real man. It was easy to lose control of himself. Lu Ya was also the type of strong woman. The two of them stirred up thunder and fire in the earth, making it even harder to control themselves. Their wedding date was brought forward.
This is the best proof.
Now that Lu Ya is pregnant, even if he does it himself on weekdays, he still feels a little worse.
Tang Ning's words touched Xiao Jue's sore spot. She sighed and said, "Speaking of this, I really envy you. You have so many wives..."
Tangning looked at him and said, "You can do it too."
"Me?" Xiao Jue shook his head mockingly and said, "We are different."
Tangning asked, "Don't you want to?"
Xiao Jue sighed and said, "She won't let me..."
Tangning waved her hand and asked, "Just tell me whether you want it or not?"
"I think..." Xiao Jue thought for a moment and finally nodded sincerely.
Tangning smiled, looked at him, and asked, "Have you discovered something?"
Xiao Jue asked in surprise: "What's the matter?"
Tangning pointed to the inner courtyard separated by a wall, lowered her voice and said in a voice that only Xiao Jue could hear: "There has been no sound of playing cards from the other side of the wall for a long time..."
When Xiao Jue heard this, his body trembled and his face turned pale. He walked gently to the foot of the wall, stepped on the stone, and looked over, just in time to meet Lu Ya's burning eyes.
Lu Ya looked at him, gritted her teeth and said, "Do you want to die?"
…
Fang family.
In recent days, Tang Ning has launched an attack on the Tang family, and many of his allies are secretly gathering strength to gradually drag the Tang family into this huge quagmire from which they cannot escape.
The downfall of the Tang family was not only of great significance to Tang Ning, but also of greater significance to the Fang family.
With the fall of the Tang family, King Duan lost his last source of support, which was undoubtedly a happy sight for the Fang family, who wanted to help King Run seize the throne.
Fang Hong was writing a book in the study. Fang Zhe walked in and walked to the table. After looking at it, he shook his head and said, "It's too early to overthrow the Tang family. This book won't have much effect."
Fang Zhe put down his pen, looked at him, and said in surprise: "The Ministry of Punishment has compared the evidence retained a few years ago and confirmed that the murderer who assassinated the Chu State's envoy was undoubtedly the housekeeper of the Tang Dynasty. The person who assassinated the friendly envoy's envoy was actually
It's a crime of treason, but isn't it enough to overthrow the Tang family?"
"If the butler of the Tang Dynasty died without any evidence, then it would be fine." Fang Zhe shook his head and said: "But he is obviously not that stupid. In the case at that time, not only the Chu State envoy was assassinated, but also a young man who was just a young man at that time was assassinated.
As long as Tang Ning, who is a junior minister, insists that he does not know about the mission and that his purpose is only Tang Ning, the Tang family's treason charges will not be implemented. In fact, they should really not know about the mission."
He looked at Fang Hong and said: "The former is a serious crime of treason and rebellion, and the latter is a family matter of the Tang family. Of course, the crime of assassinating Lingzhou Juzi is not a light crime, but I'm afraid it is far from being able to completely overthrow the Tang family."
The point.”
Fang Zhe explained it very clearly, and Fang Hong understood everything.
The outcome of the Tang family depends on how the Ministry of Punishment convicts them. This case has attracted a lot of attention in the capital. Every step of the Ministry of Punishment's handling of the case must comply with the rules. If the Tang family kills the ignorant envoy, the Ministry of Punishment will not
This case can be characterized as treason and rebellion.
Fang Hong looked at him and said, "But what Mr. Tang wants is not this result."
Fang Zhe raised his head and said: "To completely overthrow the Tang family, what is needed is a heavy blow. Unless the Chu State comes forward, the Tang family will not fall so quickly."
The key to this case lies in whether the Tang family intentionally assassinated the Chu envoy. It will not be easy for the Ministry of Punishment to implement this crime against the Tang family.
But if the State of Chu wants an explanation from the State of Chen in the name of the country, regardless of the purpose of the Tang family, the fact that the Chu State envoy was indeed assassinated in the State of Chen is enough to prevent the Tang family from turning over.
Fang Hong sighed lightly and said: "Although there are envoys from the Chu State in the capital, this case is obviously a civil strife in the Chen State. How could they easily intervene?"
Fang Zhe smiled and said, "That's not necessarily the case..."
