The mistress died of overwork, and after rebirth, she was bad at raising her cubs
Chapter 291 Has the War King found the real murderer?
Wang Heng never thought that Shen Qinglan actually had Mr. Zeng's detoxification pills!
He was extremely anxious, always feeling that something was starting to deviate from their plan!
At this moment, Huo Zhanting was hurriedly coming back with a group of people.
"Your Majesty! I am late! Please forgive me."
Emperor Jingren saw Huo Zhanting rushing back in a hurry, with an unpredictable look on his face, he just smiled and said:
"What crime have you committed, my dear?"
Huo Zhanting raised his eyes and looked at Emperor Jingren, showing a trace of fear, and said:
"I was deceived by someone with ulterior motives, and almost had Your Majesty imprisoned. Fortunately, I saw through the trick in time, and now I know that someone dared to deliberately lure me away and assassinate Your Majesty!"
When Huo Zhanting said this, his sharp eyes swept towards Wang Heng who was standing aside.
Wang Heng's heart tightened when Huo Zhanting looked at him like this.
Even though Huo Zhanting was sitting in a wheelchair, the aura he exuded was like a mountain, making him a little breathless!
Emperor Jingren's gaze naturally followed Huo Zhanting and fell on Wang Heng.
After seeing Wang Heng's face lost in thought for a moment, Emperor Jingren narrowed his eyebrows and said:
"Has the War King found the real culprit?"
Huo Zhanting nodded without hesitation and looked at Li Wu beside him.
Li Wu immediately grabbed the person behind him and kicked him to the ground in front of Emperor Jingren.
The man lay on the ground, trembling, and said in fear:
"Your Majesty, please spare me! Your Majesty, please spare me! I, I know nothing. I just followed the order of Lord Wang to get the War King to leave! I really don't know anything!"
After these words were spoken, Emperor Jingren could not help but take a close look at the person kneeling on the ground.
Seeing this, Li Fude also carefully reminded Emperor Jingren:
"Your Majesty, this is the guard who just called the War King away."
Upon hearing this, Emperor Jingren naturally recognized him, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said in a dignified voice:
"It's you? You said it was ordered by Lord Wang? What does that mean? Wang Heng..."
When Wang Heng saw the guard appear here, his face turned pale.
"How could you..."
Wang Heng opened his mouth subconsciously, but before he could finish his words, the guard glared at him and said:
"Why am I not dead yet? Lord Wang, Lord Wang! How can you be so cruel as to want to kill me?"
At this point, the guard immediately kowtowed to Emperor Jingren and said tearfully:
"Your Majesty, please look carefully! Lord Wang Heng couldn't stand the fact that Prince Zhan was superior to him, so he had his subordinates trick Prince Zhan away under the pretext that there were spies in the north of the city, and planned to teach Prince Zhan a lesson in secret."
“But, but I never thought that as soon as we arrived in the north of the city, someone would want to kill me to silence me! If it weren’t for the War King who rescued me in time, wuwuwu…”
As the guard spoke, he knelt on the ground and burst into tears.
At this moment, Emperor Jingren's expression suddenly became cold and frosty.
The King of War had just been lured away when an assassin arrived. It was such a coincidence!
Moreover, the timing of Wang Heng's arrival just now was very coincidental, which made it hard for people not to be suspicious.
Huo Zhanting also spoke to Emperor Jingren at the right time:
"Your Majesty, when I arrived in the north of the city, I found that there were no enemy spies. I knew something was wrong, so I quickly sent people to find this person, but I found that he was being hunted down."
"I have also arrested all those who wanted to kill this guard. After torture and verification, I found that they were all from the Wang family. This is the confession of those criminals. Please review it, Your Majesty."
After Huo Zhanting explained the whole process in an orderly manner, he handed the confession to Emperor Jingren.
After reading it, Emperor Jingren's face suddenly darkened. He glanced at Wang Heng coldly and said angrily:
"Wang Heng! You are so brave!"
Wang Heng turned pale with fear. He knew that he was finished.
Wang Heng did not expect that, as long as he killed the guard to silence him, even if the incident happened, he would not be implicated.
But he didn't expect that not only did the guard survive, but all the people he sent to kill the guard were captured by Huo Zhanting!
These people are all the Wang family’s servants, registered with the government, and there is no way to refute it!
It was also because what happened today happened so suddenly that he did not have time to plan carefully.
Now...it's all over.
Emperor Jingren was furious, how could he spare Wang Heng?
It's not that he doesn't know what Wang Heng has done over the years, but for the sake of the Queen, Emperor Jingren has never taken it to heart.
But he didn't expect that raising a tiger would bring him trouble, making Wang Heng so bold that he would treat him as the target of his calculation!
Emperor Jingren immediately ordered Wang Heng and the surviving assassin to be sent to the Ministry of Justice for a joint trial by the three courts of the Ministry of Justice.
The Ministry of Justice was originally on the side of the Ninth Prince, and when they learned that Your Majesty had sent Wang Heng, they were all extremely happy.
What is this called?
This is like giving someone a pillow when you feel sleepy!
You must know that Wang Heng has always dominated the Jingji Guard, and has been a great help to the Eighth Prince's party over the years!
Now, Emperor Jingren had sent Wang Heng to the Ministry of Justice. How could the people in the Ministry of Justice let him off easily?
Immediately, all eighteen martial arts were used on Wang Heng!
Wang Heng naturally didn't dare to let go!
After all, this is a serious crime of assassinating the emperor! It's like treason!
If he dares to admit it, the entire Wang family will suffer a heavy blow!
But Wang Heng didn't say anything. The captured assassin and the confessions of the Wang family all proved that this assassination was planned by Wang Heng in advance!
Even when Emperor Jingren was assassinated, Wang Heng deliberately watched from the side for a long time, wanting to make Emperor Jingren suffer and get injured before taking action. The assassin told him everything.
Emperor Jingren was furious!
The entire Wang family almost got buried with him!
But not long after, Wang Heng committed suicide in the Heavenly Prison and left a blood letter, explaining that he had acted impulsively due to his jealousy of the King of War.
But Wang Heng explained tearfully that although he wanted to take credit and suppress the King of War, he did not really want the emperor's life.
He even took all the blame on himself, saying that the Wang family had nothing to do with the incident and that it was all his fault.
Afterwards, the Wang family acted quickly. The head of the Wang family went directly to the palace and handed over half of the family wealth.
The head of the Wang family, who is also the queen's father, directly resigned from his post, saying that he had not taught his son well and was ashamed to face the emperor.
The Wang family was originally the Shaoqing of the Honglu Temple. This resignation was a heavy blow to the Eighth Prince's party.
But this move can be regarded as the Wang family's way of cutting off its tail to survive.
Although the Wang family was so proactive, Emperor Jingren did not pursue the matter any further. After all, Wang Heng had already taken the entire matter upon himself. If he continued to pursue the matter, the Wang family would probably become desperate.
Furthermore, the Wang family has already resigned from their official positions and donated money, so there is no need to worry about it.
If we continue to investigate, I'm afraid the Eighth Prince will be implicated.
Although Emperor Jingren may not like the Eighth Prince very much, the Eighth Prince is his own son, so he still has to protect the Eighth Prince's face.
If the Eighth Prince ascends to the throne in the future, it would not be good to have a mother's family that is plotting treason.
Therefore, this matter came to an end after Wang Heng died and took the blame.
At this time, in the Queen's Palace.
The Eighth Prince looked at the Queen with a particularly unpleasant expression, hesitated for a moment and said:
"Mother, with Wang Heng's death and my grandfather's resignation, we have lost everything. What should we do now?"
