Chapter 101: Revelation to Your Majesty, the servant never pays his bills
After a while of quietness, when talking about this, Shangguan Wan'er said, "Just yesterday, Qiu Renjie and eight others pleaded guilty."
It was not surprising that Qiu Renjie confessed to guilty Tang Song, but the opportunity for him to confess... was stuck at the heated discussion among the people, and the Imperial College scholars pleaded guilty when they were about to move. When he confessed, the Imperial College students could not do anything they wanted.
He has been falsely imprisoned and can still care about the laws and regulations and the court. This is really a general idea! [The latest updates are all in search.]
Di Renjie's painstaking efforts are not complicated, and can Wu Zetian really not see it?
Di Renjie, who was well-known all over the world, actually admitted his crime of rebellion. How shocking the news? But Tang Song's reaction was dull. Shangguan Wan'er turned around and looked at him carefully.
Tang Song's face was natural, "It's actually nothing strange. Now for Di Xiang, the danger lies not in Your Majesty, but in Lai Junchen. Qiu Xiang has already entered the hands of this cruel official. If he does not admit his guilt, he will be punished and killed in prison before he has been wronged."
Shangguan Wan'er habitually looked left and right, "Be careful!"
"I'm not a talkative person. This is a cold palace, and you are the only one in front of me."
Shangguan Wan'er glanced at Tang Song, "The serious crime of plotting a rebellion is the top ten rebellions, so how can this be recognized?"
Upon hearing this, Tang Song smiled, "Wan'er is taking the exam for me? I won't talk about Your Majesty, even you, I really believe that Qiu Xiang and others will also plot against you?"
Shangguan Wan'er kept silent about the topic of the school entrance examination and then asked: "If Your Majesty doesn't believe it, why would Lai Junchen let Qiu Renjie be detained for so many days?"
"Although Lai Junchen is a man of bad reputation, if there is no one behind his back, how dare he take such a heavy hand to the Minister of the Political Affairs Hall?"
"Your Majesty has never done this."
"Of course your Majesty will not do it. But when the tide of impeachment of martial arts began, His Majesty returned Wu Chengsi, who was confined to the White Horse Temple, to the court. This would be enough."
After hearing Tang Song say this, Shangguan Wan'er's eyes suddenly lit up, and she immediately ended the topic.
"How about the school entrance exam?" Tang Song smiled.
Shangguan Wan'er also smiled, but said nothing.
The last topic of the night was when Tang Song asked about something last time.
Since being locked in a small dark room, Tang Song always thought of a doubt while pondering and even reflecting. Whether he was not familiar with Feng Xiaobao, when Feng Xiaobao beat Doctor Shen in the imperial city that day, he only walked by Jingguan, and never even said a word.
Judging from this situation, Feng Xiaobao will not be able to go so quickly even if he wants to cause trouble.
Shangguan Wan'er didn't stay in his house for a long time. Feng Xiaobao arrived as soon as she left. In addition, it took time for Feng Xiaobao to summon and gather those fake monks. If you calculate this, it was almost like he had just met Feng Xiaobao in the imperial city, and Feng Xiaobao had already confirmed his identity as Wu Zetian's male favorite.
This is really unreasonable.
After thinking about it, there is only one possibility. Someone said something crucial to Feng Xiaobao at that moment, which led to his subsequent actions.
Tang Song wanted to know now and asked Shangguan Wan'er to investigate this matter.
Who is that person?
"There are many people on that day. It is really hard to determine who it is." At this point, Shangguan Wan'er paused before saying: "However, what is certain is that the last person in the imperial city who talked to Feng Xiaobao that day was Su Weidao, the Minister of the Secretariat."
Tang Song gently pronounced the name, "Su Wei Taste"
For some time after that, Tang Song was still locked in a small dark room, and his life was so peaceful that he could no longer be calm. But he controlled the turbulent storms in the court outside through Shangguan Wan'er.
On the third day after Qiu Renjie confessed to guilt, Qiu Guangyuan, who had previously wandered around the imperial city but could not find any way, finally got the opportunity to meet the saint.
Qiu Guangyuan then took Di Renjie's letter of complaint written on the quilt and silk cloth and presented it to the Holy Emperor.
Afterwards, the Holy Emperor summoned Qiu Renjie and eight others to inquire, "Since they are wronged, how can they rebel before?"
Di Renjie replied: "If Xiang does not accept the rebellion, he will die of whipping."
The Holy Emperor asked again: "What is the sign of thanking death?"
Qiu Renjie replied: "I have no such expression"
Wu Zetian took out the Xie Death note that Junchen had presented to him before, and looked at his handwriting carefully, and realized that it was forgery.
On that day, all of Di Renjie and his eight others who had been detained for a long time were released.
Immediately, the former Minister of the Political Affairs Hall, Di Renjie, was demoted to Peng Zeling, and the people of the same case were also fled far away and ordered to leave the capital immediately.
On the day Di Renjie was released, Wu Chengsi, the left prime minister of Wenchang, went to the Censorate for three days in charge, and then ordered a group of people to impeach Lai Junchen to not go to the Censorate for a single step.
Five days after the case was handled, Tang Song had been detained for a full month in the small dark room of the Yeting Palace.
Two more days after the full moon, the Yeting Palace, which was usually cold and quiet, suddenly became lively. The palace servants cleaned the way and the imperial guards were arranged properly. When the pilgrimage Emperor took the thirty-two people's carriages to the Yeting Palace and entered the small courtyard where Tang Song was located.
Walking down his shoulder carriage, Wu Zetian slowly walked to the iron window of the small black room and looked inside.
At this time, Tang Song had already walked to the window and bowed to him.
"Raise your head"
Tang Song raised his head in response.
Wu Zetian looked at Tang Song for a long time, and Tang Song's expression was calm. It was vaguely the same as the time difference between the Saint who was facing Ningbi Pool that day.
After reading it, Wu Zetian said: "Open the portal"
The guards came forward and a squeak, and the small dark room that had been closed for 32 days quietly opened.
"Come out"
Tang Song walked out, but saw Wu Zetian turning around and slowly whispering behind her hands: "Xue Zuowei is dead, you can tell."
Tang Song shook his head and said, "I don't know."
"If you talk about your sins, it is not an exaggeration to kill them, can you tell me?"
Tang Song was silent.
"Huh?" There was endless pressure in this short sound.
Tang Song can't be silent after all, "Yes"
"I remember that you have made contributions to the court, and I will record the right to commit serious crimes. If you dare to do so again in the future, you will be punished with both crimes and will be punished together."
"yes"
"Can you gain something when the moon comes here to meditate?"
"The ministers have some clues about what His Majesty assigned the matter the last time. But they have not yet written it as a charter. There is no pen in this place."
Hearing the last complaint, Wu Zetian, who was facing away from Tang Song, showed a slightly smile on the corner of his mouth, "Forget it, you will talk about this in detail when you come to see Lian tomorrow. Now, let's take a bath and wash with the palace servants. After an hour, follow Lian to the Forbidden Garden to attend the cultural meeting."
Literary meeting?
Wu Zetian ignored Tang Song's doubts, "Come on, take him to take a bath, give him brocade robe, and give him the best powder hidden in the palace. Then he sent two old palace servants with makeup to serve him."
Hearing Wu Zetian's careful instructions, Shangguan Wan'er, who was standing behind her, changed her face slightly, and her body trembled slightly.
Tang Song had no objection to taking a bath and combing, but he really couldn't enjoy this powder. He immediately said loudly: "Your Majesty, I never add powder" (To be continued)
