Datang: Empress mother-in-law sent Li Er to test me

As he said that, Zhang Dun turned his head to look at Tang Jian, and said:

"Let Team Leader Yang take a few yamen servants to Zhou Ming's house and arrest everyone in his family!"

Chapter 400 The Murderer Confesses, Tang Jian's Worries

Before Tang Jian could respond, Zhou Ming was startled and angry, and said hysterically, "You, stop!"

"stop?"

Zhang Dun glanced at him, "When you killed Yu Shaoqing, did you ever think about stopping?"

"Have you ever thought that if you do this, your wife and children will be hurt?"

What are you talking about with him? Tang Jian rolled his eyes, and immediately walked to Zhou Ming. Looking at Zhou Ming, who was leaning against the wall with blood on his mouth, he said coldly:

"Zhou Ming, I give you a choice."

"Speak out about your murder of Yu Shaoqing. I, Ping Kangbo, will protect your wife and children from death."

"Or, before dawn, you just watched your wife and children fall head to head in front of you!"

Zhang Dun looked at him in surprise, the old boy is decisive enough.

He originally wanted to punish his wife, children, and children to force Zhou Ming to tell the truth.

Tang Jian was even more ruthless, directly threatening his life.

"I say……"

Zhou Ming's face was pale, and he had no chance to choose at this time.

If he didn't say it, he and his wife and children would all die.

Confessions can save their lives.

He believed that Tang Jian would not lie, he lowered his head and said, "Yu Shaoqing was killed by a humble job."

"Why?" Tang Jian said angrily: "You are a jailer. It is impossible to meet Yu Shaoqing before today. You have no grudges with him in the past, and you have no grudges in recent days. Why did you kill him?"

Zhou Ming buried his head even lower, "Humble job...it used to be the work of Changping County..."

Duke Changping, Zhang Liang? !

Tang Jian's eyes widened a little, "Who did he ask you to kill?"

Zhang Dun also frowned, this matter is still related to Zhang Liang?

That's right, it's definitely coming for me.

After all, when he was the county magistrate, in order to complain to that woman, he not only arrested Zhang Liang's son, but also interrupted the roots of his descendants.

It also caused Zhang Liang's wife to be severely punished.

Zhang Liang asked someone to entrap him, so he asked Zhou Ming, the original part, to kill Yu Shaoqing in prison.

No matter who killed Yu Shaoqing.

As long as he died in Jingzhao Mansion, Zhang Dun could hardly absolve himself of the blame.

"It's not...it's Humble's own idea."

At this moment, Zhou Ming bowed his head and said:

"When I heard about Ping Kangbo and Changping County Duke, I was very angry when I heard about it, and I always wanted to express my anger on behalf of Changping County Duke."

"I feel that as long as Yu Shaoqing is killed, Ping Kangbo will definitely be blamed by His Majesty and lose His Majesty's trust..."

"You are so loyal!"

Tang Jian sucked his teeth and said, "For your master, you dare to kill the imperial court official!"

"You don't regret dying!"

Zhou Ming raised his head abruptly, and said righteously: "Mr. Changping has a kindness for rebuilding the humble post. I can't do anything in my life to repay him."

"Ping Kangbo caused Duke Changping to suffer such a great humiliation. I can't do nothing! Only by killing Yu Shaoqing can Ping Kangbo be destroyed!"

Tang Jian's nose was about to smoke, "Then you haven't thought about me?"

What does the grievance between you have to do with me, Tang Jian.

Co-authoring me is just sitting at home, and the disaster comes from the sky, so I deserve it?

The more Tang Jian thought about it, the more angry he became, pointing at his nose and yelling: "You bastard, you have a wrong and a debtor, you are fighting in private, I don't bother to care about it, but you killed Yu Shaoqing and implicated this official!"

"You brought the blame on yourself." Zhou Ming retorted.

Tang Jian couldn't believe it: "What did you say?"

Zhou Ming snorted coldly, "Did you forget the fact that Duke Changping and Kang Bo were sidelining the fight because of a woman's death?"

Tang Jian said angrily: "This officer is handling the case impartially!"

Zhou Ming lowered his head and said, "Are you handling the case impartially? Justice is at ease!"

"My father-in-law, your mother—" Tang Jian was furious and kicked him.

Knowing that he killed him, he still has the face to say that justice is at ease.

Isn't this being bitten by a dog!

Tang Jian was so angry that he kicked Zhou Ming violently one after another.

"Tang Fu Yin, don't beat him to death, this person is still useful!"

Zhang Dun hurriedly pulled him out of the wooden prison.

Tang Jian panted heavily, and it took him a long time to calm down. He rubbed his cheeks and said, "Oh, the murderer has been tried, and it's even worse for me than if he hasn't been tried."

"Tomorrow morning, I don't know how to face the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, and face His Majesty."

Let's say it has something to do with Zhang Liang.

There is indeed some relationship.

But it doesn't matter much, after all, Zhang Liang didn't ask Zhou Ming to kill the person, he made his own decision.

This alone can clear Zhang Liang's suspicion.

But what about him and Zhang Dun?

Yu Shaoqing did die in Jingzhao Mansion.

They cannot absolve themselves of the blame. Tomorrow morning, the officials at Yushitai will never let them go easily.

Zhang Dun pondered: "If there is anything, let's talk about it."

Tang Jian said angrily: "To put it lightly, do you think the officials won't attack us?"

"It's not like we're not unprepared." Zhang Dun shrugged and said, "There's still a little time before dawn, which is enough for us to make full preparations for tomorrow's court meeting."

Tang Jian was surprised, "What can you do?"

Zhang Dun beckoned and asked him to come over and tell him what he thought.

Tang Jian narrowed his pupils and said, "Is this possible?"

Zhang Dun said solemnly: "It's better than being scolded and waiting to die in the early morning, isn't it?"

"Then...then do it!"

Tang Jian's face was cloudy and uncertain, and finally stomped his feet cruelly, and it was done!

"There are still a few hours left, overnight should be fine!"

"Let's split up."

After finishing speaking, Zhang Dun took Team Leader Yang and left Jingzhao Mansion.

Tang Jian and the three jailers left.

The entire Jingzhao Mansion shone like a firefly in the dark night.

The rest of the jailers were called back by Tang Jian to guard the prison.

The death of Shaoqing in Taichang Temple in prison was already a shocking event.

Now interrogate the murderer.

The murderer can no longer appear to die in the big jail.

The guards looked dignified and surrounded the Jingzhao Mansion's inner and outer third floors.

Everyone knows that the most important thing at this time is to prevent accidents from happening again.

The sky turned pale.

It had been raining all night, and it had stopped now.

Outside the Tai Chi Palace, civil and military officials arrived one after another in official robes.

When they saw Zhang Dun and Tang Jian walking from the east and west sides, everyone's eyes were full of strangeness.

What puzzled them most was that Tang Jian looked very tired, as if he hadn't slept all night.

Zhang Dun, on the other hand, seemed to be fine.

At this time, Zhang Dun walked up to Tang Jian, looked at his face and said, "Master Tang, can you survive a night without sleep?"

"If you can't hold it, you have to hold it."

Tang Jian rubbed his cheeks, trying to get rid of sleepiness. Now is the critical moment. Now that he is asleep, he may not be able to wake up even if he wants to.

"Hehehehe."

At this moment, a gloating laugh sounded beside him.

The two looked sideways.

Seeing Changsun Wuji walking over with his hands in his sleeves, smiling.

"Zhang Dun, do you know how the old man passed the night?"

Zhang Dun saw that the eldest grandson Wuji was coming towards him, and looked at him in confusion, when did our relationship get so good?

Zhang Dun shook his head and said, "I don't want to know."

"..."

Changsun Wuji's smile faltered.

Chapter 401 When the court meeting is in progress, hundreds of officials participate in the performance

You don't want to know?

That doesn't work.

Changsun Wuji smiled and answered as if he was asking himself: "Old man, I didn't close my mouth from laughing all night."

Du Yan, the doctor of censors, came over when he heard the sound, and when he heard Changsun Wuji's words, he said with deep eyes, "Are you so happy?"

Seeing him cheering him on, Changsun Wuji stroked his beard and said, "Happy, even happier than when I was promoted to Minister of the Ministry of Officials."

After finishing speaking, he glanced at Zhang Dun and saw a faint smile on his face, so he couldn't help frowning, "Zhang Dun, why do you look happy? You shouldn't be."

Zhang Dun asked back: "I'm not happy, should I cry?"

Changsun Wuji snorted softly, "You should cry, crying like a dead parent."

Zhang Dun shook his head and said, "I'm not your son, so I don't need to do this every day."

Changsun Wuji: "..."

Du Yan looked at the deflated Changsun Wuji angrily and amusedly, and said, "Okay, stop bickering."

I have never seen you win a quarrel.

Keep bickering, isn't it asking for trouble?

Du Yan stopped looking at him, but stared at Zhang Dun, and said in a deep voice, "Zhang Dun, you are ready for the court meeting today."

"The old man leads the censor platform. The censors at the censor platform have heard about what you did yesterday. They wrote down the memorial overnight, and they are waiting to attend you in the court hall."

Zhang Dun cupped his hands slightly, and said, "Thank you, Doctor Du, for reminding me."
