After staying in Xiao Yu's mansion for a while, Xiao Yu personally waited for him to take a bath.Qin Xuechuan obviously didn't want others to touch him, but in the end he struggled and got closer to him, and finally fell into his palm.

Qin Xuechuan was extremely tired, he didn't want to play this kind of game of wanting to greet or rejecting with Xiao Yu anymore.Seeing him laughing like this, Xiao Yu said, "Your Highness, is this submitting?"

Qin Xuechuan frowned: "Pay attention to your wording, I didn't submit to you, but you came to serve me."

Xiao Yu is now imitating the way the father-in-law in the palace speak: "Yes, Xiao Yuzi is here to serve His Highness."

He picked up a sandalwood comb and gently combed Xiao Yu's long black and shiny hair: "Your Highness's hair is really long, and the long hair is soft around your fingers. Have you ever heard of it?"

Qin Xuechuan frowned slightly: "I'm tired."

Xiao Yu brought over a ball of white bath towels: "Your Highness should rest."

After Qin Xuechuan took a bath in his mansion, he went back quietly. Although he was exhausted, he never forgot what he saw and heard in Xiangsheng Mansion last night.

At this moment, he still holds the handle of Xue Zhengwu's son Xue Yong not long ago, and now is the time to use this pawn.The Forbidden Army and Jinwu Guards in the imperial city are firmly in the hands of the emperor. If anyone has the heart of disobedience, I am afraid that person will be wiped out immediately.

Qin Xuechuan also knew this very well, so he handed over the task of impeaching Xiangsheng to Xue Zhengwu and others. Anyway, the emperor has long been unhappy with this person, so it is just time to add fire to him and get rid of him earlier.

And the most important thing to get rid of Xiangsheng is Xianglu... Qin Xuechuan wanted to see if his own uncle would protect his subordinates?

If there is a disagreement, that side is the enemy, and it must not be used, it can only be used as a pawn.

When Qin Xuechuan just lay down, a light came in from outside the palace door. Herring was holding a lacquered wooden tray with a jade cup on it, which contained the medicine that had just been boiled for Qin Xuechuan.

Herring whispered: "Your Highness, it's time for you to take your medicine..."

Qin Xuechuan covered himself with a quilt, then turned over and said, "Leave it for now, and drink it when I wake up."

Herring nodded, and then handed the medicine on the table in the bedroom.

***

Qin Xuechuan fell into a coma for a whole day and night, during his comatose day.Many things have been turned upside down, especially Xiangsheng, who was caught and impeached many times. In addition to embezzlement and kidnapping of civilian women, those who know how to do things have also dug up many crimes against him.

The emperor became suspicious again after hearing the words of those ministers.

Xiangsheng was already treacherous, but he refused to admit it, insisting that he was not at fault.In order for him to prove his innocence, the emperor personally ordered people from Dali Temple to go to Xiangsheng's house to investigate.

In just one day's effort, Xiangsheng has changed from an important minister in the court to a prisoner.

Finally, Chang Jianzhi, who was in Dali Temple, went to Xiangsheng Mansion and found the dungeon in person.They found many women's bones in the dungeon.Although Chang Jianzhi looks honest, his brain is not stupid. He also knows how to pronounce the word "digging the ground three feet".

The people he led unearthed dozens of boxes of silver and all kinds of gold, silver and jewelry in Xiangsheng Mansion.In addition, he actually compiled a notebook in which others bribed him, and all the names of the people on it were clearly written.

And those who are still asleep don't know that they have been betrayed by Xiangsheng, a pig teammate.

Xianglu accepting and giving bribes, and killing good people indiscriminately are absolutely undeniable. Even if the person behind him is Xianglu, if Xianglu speaks for this kind of person, it will damage his reputation. So these days, He even said that he was sick and could not go to court.

Qin Yuan has treated the Xiang clan generously since he ascended the throne. Even if Xiang Lu doesn't claim to be sick, it's okay for him not to come to court.It's just that Xianglu is just using this excuse to not want to give up the truth.

The next morning, Qin Xuechuan woke up early, and when he woke up, he vaguely heard that Xiangsheng had been dismissed and investigated, and now he is in the prison of Dali Temple, because there are too many people involved with him.

After the people in Dali Temple have sorted out the charges and evidence, the minister of the Ministry of punishment will hand them over to the emperor.

And the first thing Qin Xuechuan did when he woke up was not to drink medicine, but went straight to Dali Temple.

"See Your Royal Highness!"

As soon as Qin Xuechuan arrived at Dali Temple, he saw Chang Jianzhi coming out to greet him, Qin Xuechuan frowned slightly: "Where is Shaoqing of Dali Temple?"

Chang Jianzhi knelt down and said: "His Royal Highness, Shaoqing is involved in the Xiangsheng case, His Majesty is furious at this moment, and has sent people to various state capitals to investigate whether anyone has bribed Xiangsheng."

Qin Xuechuan almost didn't laugh out loud when he heard what he said. It turns out that Xiangsheng's connections are quite extensive.Qin Xuechuan asked again at this moment: "Where is the criminal minister Xiang?"

Chang Jianzhi replied, "I'm being held in a prison."

After hearing what he said, Qin Xuechuan coughed seriously: "Take me to see him."

At this moment, the palace servants who were following Qin Xuechuan persuaded him: "Your Highness, your illness is not fully healed, and prison is bad luck. If His Highness gets sick again, how will the servants explain to His Majesty?"

After hearing what the man said, Qin Xuechuan turned around and gave him a hard look: "Are you teaching me how to do things?"

The palace servant immediately retreated: "This servant dare not."

After Chang Jianzhi heard it, he hurried forward and said, "Your Highness, please—"

***

Qin Xuechuan followed him to the prison, the prison in Dali Temple is much more "luxury" than those in the Ministry of Punishment.Speaking of luxury, this cell is more spacious and brighter than the one in the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

Qin Xuechuan is most afraid of the dark. Fortunately, there are many people following him now, and the candles in the building are lit relatively brightly, so it is not a problem now.

He walked up to Xiangsheng, at the moment Xiangsheng was only wearing a white undershirt, curled up beside the cell in a very embarrassed state.Qin Xuechuan smiled when he saw him, and said, "You all step back? Chang Zuoling stay."

Chang Jianzhi got the order: "Yes, Your Highness!"

Qin Xuechuan ordered Xiangsheng to be dragged out of the prison, and then he was tied to the gallows for interrogating prisoners with a large chain.

During the whole process, he kept yelling nonsense: "I am a first-rank official in the court. I have been wronged. How dare you be rude to me?"

After tying him to the wooden frame, one person moved a black sandalwood chair for Qin Xuechuan to sit on.

Qin Xuechuan smiled when he saw Xiangsheng: "I haven't seen you for two days, don't Master Xiang remember me?"

Xiangsheng raised his head and saw clearly the person sitting not far from him, his pupils were startled suddenly: "Yes...it's His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

He hastily argued: "My minister and His Highness have not seen each other for dozens of days, and His Highness has been ill for a long time and rarely goes out. How can I be so lucky to see His Highness?"

He must have thought of something too. When he said this, he avoided looking at Qin Xuechuan.

After Qin Xuechuan heard what he said, he covered his mouth and smiled, and he continued: "Master Xiang has a lot of things to do every day, and he has more things to do than my father. Naturally, the people he wins over are all over Fengdu City. Your lord is busy even at night. That’s why they sent people to kidnap civilian girls, even secretly communicated with the city gate guards overnight, dragged the girl and the innocent doctor to the suburbs and burned them, don’t you think so?”

Xiangsheng heard Qin Xuechuan vividly tell the evil deeds he did in front of him the day before yesterday.

Xiangsheng soon understood...the two people he sent out of the city hadn't returned since that night.From then on, he suspected that something happened, so he wanted to get rid of all those things in his mansion, but he didn't wait for him to deal with it. It took only a day, and all the officials jointly impeached him as if they had colluded.

The emperor even ordered someone to thoroughly investigate his mansion, and from then on he knew that he might not be able to protect himself.

Xiangsheng still wants to pretend to be stupid at this moment, trying to win a chance of life.

"Too... What is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince talking about... I really can't understand."

Qin Xuechuan smiled calmly again, and he continued: "It doesn't matter if you don't understand, adults here will always tell the truth." After speaking, he hooked his fingers and motioned to the people next to him, and then There was a blunt rusty knife brought up by someone.

Qin Xuechuan picked up the blunt knife and walked towards Xiangsheng slowly, with an unpredictable smile on his face.

Seeing this, Xiangsheng's eyes widened. He struggled violently, and the iron chains tied to his body rattled: "What do you want to do? I'm a first-rank official in the court. Your Majesty hasn't issued an imperial edict yet. What do you dare to do to me?"

After Qin Xuechuan heard what he said, he covered his face with the hand holding the knife and laughed, "First rank official? Are you worthy of this appearance? Besides, I am the crown prince and you are just an extremely humble Your servant, your life belongs to the royal family, even if I kill you at this moment, no one would dare to speak out."

Xiangsheng's eyes widened, his expression grim: "How dare you! Your Majesty knows, and he will definitely not spare you." He was already guilty when he said this.

Qin Xuechuan continued to smile and walked in front of him: "I am the son of the current emperor, the noble crown prince, why would my father punish me because you are a small official? Besides, those ministers dug out a lot Even if one or two of your crimes wronged you, then you are not wronged."

After finishing speaking, he turned his gaze to the knife in his hand: "I don't know how Master Xiang tortured the women you robbed before? Can you tell me the method?"

At this moment, Qin Xuechuan smiled in front of Xiangsheng like a devil whispering.

Xiangsheng was trembling all over at this moment, he kept calling for his own injustice, saying that he was wronged, there must be some villain who framed him.

At this time, Qin Xuechuan took the knife and scratched a small spot on Xiangsheng's arm: "I have heard that it hurts to cut flesh with a blunt knife. Let people not die, Lord Xiang guess, if this knife cuts your body, will it hurt more?"
