Tang Dynasty: The seventh rank of official residence, and you will be given the Ten Thousand People

The fight was very fierce. Ten chamberlains rushed into the crowd with their eyes closed and fought with the soldiers of the left guard.

What surprised everyone was that the imaginary defeat of the chamberlain did not appear.

On the contrary, the weapons of the Zuowei soldiers, who had high hopes for them, were broken into several pieces as soon as they exchanged hands, and the leather armor on their bodies was even cut with several large holes.

If the sword in the servant's hand had not been sharpened, they would have been killed by the enemy in the ground.

However, even so, twenty burly men still fell to the ground.

Seeing this scene, the whole hall was eerily quiet. Everyone lowered their heads and said nothing, for fear of arousing Wu Zetian's anger.

They are not fools. These twenty people are all elite soldiers of Zuowei. If they were wearing normal armor, they would not be able to defeat a few eunuchs.

The reason why this happened was that someone must have tampered with the weapons and armor of the army.

As for who it is, it is clear at a glance. Except for the Shaofu Supervisor, no one in Weiwei Temple dares to have such courage.

"Queen Mother, I am guilty!" Li Yuanpei and Wu Changnan walked out of the queue and knelt on the ground.

After glancing at the white hair of the two of them, Wu Zetian said with a livid face and a murderous look on his face.

"Give me an explanation!"

Feeling the killing intent in the Queen Mother's words, Li Yuanpei and the others trembled and said in fear.

"I would like to report to the Queen Mother that all the armor produced under the supervision of the Shaofu will be made in accordance with the regulations of the imperial court, and then submitted to Weiwei Temple for verification and distribution. Only those who pass the test will be signed by the Ministry of War to receive them."

"If there is a problem in any part of the process, it will be discovered. I and others will never dare to do anything about it."

I have to say that the two old guys' acting skills were very strong, and many people were shaken by their crying.

Cheng Shan came out and cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, the Ministry of War did a random inspection when receiving the armor and found no problems."

"I will guarantee the Guangyang County Prince with my life. It is impossible for the Nanling County Prince to do such a heinous thing!"

"Fan Siqing must have procured a batch of fake goods somewhere and pretended to be the supervisor of the young master in an attempt to slander the two princes."

Speaking of this, Cheng Shan scolded Fan Xin: "Bold Fan Xin, as the minister of Dali Temple, you dare to slander the two princes without evidence. What crime should you be punished for?"

Looking at Cheng Shan who spoke righteously, Fan Xin said calmly.

"I am impeaching two county princes. Why are you excited? Could it be that you are also involved in the reselling of military supplies?"

"伱!" Cheng Shan hesitated, with an angry look on his face.

"Okay!" Wu Zetian stopped the two of them and said to Fan Xin.

"When it comes to a major military case, you must be very cautious. I would like to ask you if you have any conclusive evidence?"

Unlike those before, Li Yuanpei and Wu Changnan, as well as the military generals involved, all had some relationship with several aristocratic families.

If you want to suppress them, you must have tangible evidence.

Fan Xin looked stern and cupped his hands and said: "Back to the Queen Mother, I ordered Dali Temple to hear the case yesterday. I must be on my way to the palace now!"

Seeing that Fan Xin had even prepared witnesses and evidence, Cheng Shan and others' expressions changed, and they began to worry secretly.

Seeing everyone's expressions in her eyes, Wu Zetian's murderous intention became even more intense and she said coldly.

"Okay, then I will wait at Shangyang Palace today to see if this is the case!"

While waiting for others, Cheng Shan and others came to Lai Junchen and whispered.

"Come to Zhongcheng, didn't I ask you to kill all the deserters? What's going on?"

"Yes, if we are involved, you won't be able to run away. One hundred thousand taels of silver is not a small amount of money." Li Yuanpei said with a sullen face.

After taking a look at a few people, Lai Junchen smiled slightly and said indifferently.

"Don't worry, I have already deployed a large number of guards at the entrance of the palace. As soon as we see the prisoners, we will take them down immediately."

"It is impossible for him to have the opportunity to enter the palace and harm everyone."

Cheng Shan and others felt relieved when they heard that Lai Junchen was ready.

Di Renjie looked back and sighed.

"Fan Xin, you are too careless. These people will definitely send people to intercept and kill outside the palace. If the witnesses cannot arrive at the scene, there will be even greater trouble waiting."

"No need to worry too much, Mr. Ge, just wait patiently for the witnesses to arrive at Shangyang Palace."

Fan Xin smiled confidently and looked through the palace gate towards the distant palace gate.

……

On the royal road leading to the palace gate, a large team was quickly heading towards the palace gate.

It looks like he is from Dali Temple.

"Zhou Tong, after entering the palace gate and walking forward for a while, you will find Shangyang Palace."

"When you meet the Queen Mother, you only need to tell the truth about what you saw and heard. Remember not to hide anything, do you understand?"

"Young man understands that when I see the Queen Mother, I will definitely tell the truth, and I will never dare to tell any lies."

"Well, let's go." Jiang Wen nodded and led Zhou Tong to the palace gate. What surprised him was that the guards were replaced by some unfamiliar faces.

"I, the Young Minister of Dali Temple, have something very important to do. I have to go to the palace to meet the Holy Spirit. Please ask the general to open the palace door."

"Are you Jiang Wen who is trying the deserter case?"

"Exactly, I didn't know you..."

"Come here, capture these two people for me, General!"

As soon as he finished speaking, hundreds of officials from the Judicial Council poured out from the palace gate and surrounded everyone in Dali Temple.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Wen's heart skipped a beat and he yelled loudly.

"How dare you attack Dali Temple at the feet of the Emperor? Is there any royal law left?"

"Jiang Shaoqing is serious. We are just ordered to capture deserters. As long as you hand this guy over to the Magistrates' Council, I promise that I will not embarrass you." One-eyed Dragon said proudly.

"Hmph, this person is related to a major court case, how can I hand it over to your Senate!" Jiang Wen shook his sleeves and said angrily.

"Be wise and get out of the way, otherwise if you stab me, I will make you walk around without food!"

Regarding Jiang Wen's threat, One-Eyed Dragon chuckled disdainfully.

"Well, since Jiang Shaoqing doesn't know how to praise, I can only do it myself."

"Come on, arrest this coward who escaped from the battlefield!"

With an order, dozens of wolf-like officials rushed forward, pinned Zhou Tong to the ground and tied him with ropes.

Jiang Wen deliberately stepped forward to help, but there were too few people who followed him and were blocked out. He watched helplessly as Zhou Tong was put into a prison car.

"Reporting to Mr. Ye, the prisoner has been put into the prison car!"

"Take it back to Lijingmen." The one-eyed dragon glanced at Jiang Wen with a proud look. Just as he was about to lead people away, a group of Qianniu Guards wearing flying bear uniforms suddenly ran up the royal road in the distance.

Call!

Coming closer, Zhang Huan jerked the reins and pointed at Zhou Tongtong.

"Qing Fan Si has an order to bring this person safely to Shangyang Palace. Anyone who dares to stop him will be rectified on the spot!"

"Yes!"

Qian Niuwei shouted, and suddenly turned into a black torrent and rushed towards the Magistrate's Court.

With three punches and two kicks, he knocked all the vicious little officials to the ground.

"Jiang Shaoqing, we control this place. Take Zhou Tong to Shangyang Palace as soon as possible. The Queen Mother and the Temple Minister are already waiting." Zhang Huan inserted the knife into the scabbard and said politely to Jiang Wen.

"Excuse me, everyone, take your leave!"

Jiang Wen cupped his fists and pulled the stunned Zhou Tong towards the palace quickly...
