"Wait!!" Seeing that Wang Xingzhi's men wanted to arrest her younger brother, the side concubine hurriedly stood in front of Zhang Cheng, with a cold face, she glanced at Jiang Jingqiao and said, "Prince Jing, have you made a hasty decision?"

Jiang Jingqiao didn't expect that the matter had come to this point, and the side concubine still didn't give up, so she said, "But please enlighten me, my side concubine."

The side concubine looked directly at Jiang Jingqiao and said, "No matter what the hell that came in after the lights went out just now, just say Zhang Cheng, he said that Liu Zhen and Peng Hong killed him, but it has nothing to do with him , If you don’t tell the truth, you’re not guilty of death, right?”

Jiang Jingqiao laughed when he heard that, and then looked at the Admiral of the Nine Gates and Wang Xingzhi with a cold face: "What are you doing in a daze, take him away, and ask him to kill him immediately."

The admiral of the Nine Gates didn't dare to be negligent when he heard the words, and asked his subordinates to go forward and bypass the side concubine and forcefully pull Zhang Cheng out.

"Sister!" Zhang Cheng's voice was miserable.

The side concubine became angry from embarrassment, looked at Jiang Jingqiao with seven points of frustration, and said, "Why, His Royal Highness Prince Jing didn't explain clearly, are you just disregarding human life like this?"

"It's not that this king doesn't explain, it's that people who are not confused know it in their hearts, you insist on pretending to be confused, why does this king bother?" Jiang Jingqiao looked at the side concubine, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he took a step forward, He said in a voice that only two people could hear: "Of course, if you feel that the testimony of the jade pendant, the skin on the nails of the deceased, and the common people is not strong enough, I can ask Liu Zhen and the others to be escorted here. Anyone who reports Zhang Chengzhi's wrongdoing If you can avoid death, tell me, will all the crimes Zhang Chengping commits in his daily life be exposed?"

After Jiang Jingqiao finished speaking, he took a step back and looked at the side concubine with a smile. It is very easy for a person like Zhang Cheng who has committed many crimes to find a crime.

Jiang Jingqiao's expression angered the side concubine, she stared at Jiang Jingqiao intently, she knew that the other party wanted Zhang Cheng to die, but she had nothing to do, if all the evidence of the crime was revealed, she wondered if it would bring disaster to Zhang's family.

King Ning glanced at the side concubine, took away the bloody handkerchief, stood up, looked at the side concubine and said: "Zhang Cheng is guilty and deserves to die, you step back, don't be rude to King Jing."

The side concubine looked away unwillingly, and when she looked at Zhang Cheng again, the other party had already been dragged out of the hall.

"Mother Concubine." Jiang Jingcheng saw the side concubine's body swaying, and hurriedly stepped forward to support her.

King Ning walked down the steps, looked at Jiang Jingqiao, said with a tired tone, "Jing Qiao, Uncle Wang is tired, let's end the banquet here."

This is the order to evict guests, Jiang Jingqiao said with a smile: "Okay, Uncle Wang, you should go to bed early."

"En." King Ning said while looking at his son Jiang Jingcheng, "Jingcheng sent Jing Qiao off for me."

Jiang Jingqiao hurriedly said: "Uncle Wang, I'm not in a hurry, I'm not full yet, I want to eat for a while, besides, Mr. Wang and the others are going to arrest people, I also want to take Uncle Wang's seat and wait for him to come back. Wang Uncle is tired and goes to rest on his own, as long as I have my cousin and all the adults to accompany me."

King Ning raised his eyebrows, Jiang Jingqiao left behind with a stern face, could there be something else going on in the future? ?King Ning's heart began to beat, he no longer dared to underestimate Jiang Jingqiao.

"Since Jing Qiao is not full, then Uncle Wang will accompany you for a while." King Ning felt that there was still something to do, so he sat back. If he left, this scene might not be able to calm Jiang Jingqiao, "Jing Cheng, ah Min, help your mother and concubine go back to the bedroom to rest."

"Here." Wang Min secretly nodded goodbye to Zhao Qingzhi, and then helped the side concubine to go out.

Jiang Jingqiao walked up to Ah Zhen, bent down and reached out to help Ah Zhen and the old woman up.

"The murderer who killed your husband will be punished tonight. You have been wronged. Go back."

"Thank you, Your Highness King Jing." The three cried.

Jiang Jingqiao said with a smile: "You should thank Uncle Ning, he is the one who avenged you."

The three of them knelt down and thanked King Ning after hearing the words: "Thank you, Lord Ning."

"It's the king who didn't manage the people below and made you suffer." King Ning said, looking at the maid beside him, "Take them out of the mansion."

Jiang Jingqiao watched the three of them leave before sitting beside Zhao Qingzhi.

Just as the singing and dancing resumed in the hall, the little guard rushed in again.

Seeing this, King Ning covered his heart, his hands trembling slightly, it seemed that he guessed right, Jiang Jingqiao had prepared a lot of 'dishes' for him tonight.

"My lord, it's not good. There are more and more people outside. The east, west, and south directions are full of people. I'm afraid that people from one of the villages in Liushun have come."

When King Ning stood up suddenly when he heard the words, he got up too violently and knocked over the wine cup.

"Almost the whole village has come? Why are they here? Everyone died in the family???" King Ning said angrily.

"They said that Mr. Zhang colluded with the county magistrate and invaded their land, and they came to ask the prince to return the land to them."

King Ning shook his body when he heard this, he had just lost a housekeeper and four officials, and this involved another official.

"Magistrate Liushun, how did you become a parent official?" Ning Wang scolded and asked.

The county magistrate of Liushun was already sweating profusely. The battle tonight made everyone present feel guilty. After all, even the younger brother of the side concubine would be beheaded, and those officials who relied on their official careers to become officials were even more insecure.

The county magistrate of Liushun hurriedly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, these people sold their land voluntarily. I don't know why they sued you all of a sudden. Don't think it's because you know Mr. Zhang is going to be beheaded and feel like making a fuss." Should the government return the land they bought with money?"

King Ning was very annoyed when he heard such remarks. He knew that he could not send someone to call in the troubled people for questioning. As soon as he asked about the accident, he heard Jiang Jingqiao's voice just as he was thinking of a plan.

"There are such thugs? Isn't this fooling the government? Qingyan, go out and call in a few representatives who are causing trouble. I want to ask them personally, who gave them the courage??" Jiang Jingqiao said angrily.

As soon as King Ning heard it, his breath became even more uncomfortable, and the breath he exhaled was disordered.

If he rebelled now, he would still have time to save the four officials who were taken to the execution ground, and he could even kill Jiang Jingqiao to relieve his hatred, but his rationality suppressed his anger, and the imperial army has not yet been fully dispatched. Going out, he is rebelling at this time, and he has no advantage in military strength at all. Only when the battle with the Western Regions has completely started, the imperial court sends troops, and at that time finds a reason to retaliate. Now…

The blue veins on King Ning's forehead were bulging, and those who achieved great things should be able to bend and stretch, and the day he killed God Capital would be the time when Jiang Jingqiao died in Huangquan.

Gao Qingyan quickly brought Liushun's people in, and the three of them kowtowed when they entered.

"My lord, the land is the lifeblood of our common people, please be the master for us!!"

Meng Ye, magistrate of Liushun County, turned his head and glanced at the three of them. When he saw one of them, he was startled. Why did the clerk from his yamen also come? ? ?

Jiang Jingqiao heard the words and said: "The one kneeling is your parents and officials. He said that you sold the land voluntarily and got the money from the government. Now that something happened to Zhang Cheng, you want to make a fuss and ask the land to go back. Come with nothing. Wolf."

Liushun's county magistrate, Meng Ye, almost fainted, he didn't say the words "White Wolf", and this King Jing was quite good at embellishing it.

The oldest of the three heard the words: "We sell the land voluntarily? The land in our entire village was forcibly taken away by people from the yamen. Some people's land deeds were taken away, and some of us kept the land deeds." Get up, the people in the yamen are arresting people everywhere these days, His Highness is now going to Liushun's dungeon to listen, all of which are to force questions about the remaining land deeds."

The middle-aged man echoed: "Yes, my lord, the conscience of heaven and earth, this Lord Mengxian and that man surnamed Zhang have done a lot of evil, oh, this is Liu Shun's clerk, this Lord Mengxian robbed us of our land. There are records, please take a look."

Hearing this, the scribe raised the notebook in his hand above his head and said, "Lord Ning, Your Highness Prince Jing, please have a look."

"So thick? Pass me a copy, and give the rest to Uncle Ning." Jiang Jingqiao said slowly.

Hearing this, Gao Qingyan stepped forward and took the top one, and handed it to Jiang Jingqiao.

Jiang Jingqiao opened it and read two pages with Zhao Qingzhi. There were more than 100 households in a village, and they either arrested people and threatened to hand over the land deeds or went to the door to intimidate them.

"Okay, that's what the government does for a living, right? What's the difference between that and a robber?"

"You are wronged, Your Highness King Jing!!!" Meng Ye kowtowed profusely with sweat.

"Jing Qiao, I started writing this book a few years ago, maybe I had the idea of ​​deliberately framing it long ago." King Ning said and looked at the clerk, "Do you have any other evidence besides this?"

"Yes, the land that has not been robbed of the title deed has been cultivated by the slaves of Mr. Zhang's family. Those slaves bullied others, and the people from the Yamen went to help those slaves drive away the people who complained with the title deed. These things sent people to the land It will be clear if you check it in the dungeon."

Meng Ye was sweating when he heard it. Many people were imprisoned in the dungeon. He ordered the guards to torture the land deeds every day. He really sent people to die.

"Your Highness, please forgive me. Master Zhang forced me to do this. He is the younger brother of the side concubine. If I don't listen to him, he will lead people to block my door all day long, Your Highness!"

Hearing this, King Ning wished he could throw the jug on Meng Ye.

"Are you admitting it??" Jiang Jingqiao asked with narrowed eyes.

"I'm guilty, I've been forced to do nothing, I hope His Highness will forgive me."

"As a parent and official, helping the tyrant to abuse and oppress the people, how can you tolerate you?" Jiang Jingqiao said, looking at King Ning, "Uncle Wang, my niece thinks that non-execution is not enough to calm the people who are suffering outside and in the dungeon. What do you think?"

King Ning had no expression on his face, what could he do, that stupid bastard would have recruited himself.

"Very good!" King Ning spat out two words.

Jiang Jingqiao smiled and looked at the female Tan Hualang on the opposite seat, "Wang Xin!!"

"The minister is here." Wang Xin stood up.

"Look carefully at the notebook written by this scribe, and take this dog official, the jailors, yamen servants, and master book involved in the case to Wang Xingzhi, and execute him immediately!"

"Here." Wang Xin said and led people to bring the group down.

Jiang Jingqiao stretched his waist, heard the drum beating three times on the bridge, then yawned, turned his head to look at Zhao Qingzhi who was also yawning with his mouth covered, and whispered: "Sleepy?"

Zhao Qingzhi nodded slightly.

"I still have to wait for Huang Xing, you take Xingwu back to Xu's house to sleep first." Jiang Jingqiao whispered.

Zhao Qingzhi was slightly surprised when he heard the words, and whispered: "Is there something else for Huang Xinglai?"

Jiang Jingqiao nodded.

"Then I'll wait with His Highness." After Zhao Qingzhi finished speaking, seeing Jiang Jingqiao still wanted to persuade her, she whispered: "Now the concubine is not used to sleeping alone."

Jiang Jingqiao was taken aback when he heard the words, and then the corners of his mouth turned up again. Although he was tired, the smile on his face was very warm.

King Ning watched coldly the two people talking and laughing under his nose, his mentality gradually changed from furious to calm, Jiang Jingqiao killed many people tonight, it really cost him a lot, but so what?These dead officials will definitely send new officials to the imperial court, and at most it will take another year and a half to use them for their own use. It’s no big deal. Those who died are not very important positions. The overall situation of Huaiyin is still in his hands. inside.

After Gao Qingyan helped Wang Xin escort him out, he quickly repented and whispered in Jiang Jingqiao's ear: "Your Highness, I just got the news that Master Huang Xing fell off his horse, and cannot arrive at Huaiyin tonight as planned."

Jiang Jingqiao raised her eyebrows when she heard the words, she was waiting for the imperial decree on Huang Xing's body, but she didn't expect an accident to happen.

"Uncle Wang, thank you for your hospitality tonight. My concubine and I have finished eating, and we are a little sleepy now. Please resign."

When King Ning heard this, he raised his eyebrows and said, "Why, Jing Qiao didn't wait for Lord Wang to return?"

"Hey, it's the same wherever you go to return. Uncle Wang is also tired. Jing Qiao can't bother me any more. Jing Qiao is leaving." Jiang Jingqiao cupped his hands as he said, took Zhao Qingzhi's hand and walked out.

"Let the people from Yunliu go and see how Huang Xing is injured? If he is so injured that he can't leave, let the people from Yunliu escort the eunuch to Huaiyin." Jiang Jingqiao said as he walked.

"Here." Gao Qingyan responded softly.

Jiang Jingqiao and his party went out from the gate of Prince Ning's Mansion, but there were no people at the gate, so they all followed Wang Xin.

After going down the steps, Jiang Jingqiao and Zhao Qingzhi got into the sedan chair one after the other.

In the sedan chair, Jiang Jingqiao sighed, "This Huang Xing lost the chain at a critical moment."

"Jing Qiao, was Huang Xing injured by King Ning's men?" Zhao Qingzhi asked.

"No, Qingyan said that he fell off his horse. It is reasonable to make an appointment to rush to Huaiyin tonight. The few people who were to be beheaded in the imperial decree are big fish. The former county guard confessed before he was assassinated in the prison. They were all King Kang. The remnants, according to my analysis, Uncle Ning should be involved with these remnants, maybe it was Uncle Ning who instigated these remnants to come into contact with Jiang Jingyu, obviously they belonged to King Kang, and secretly helped King Ning." Jiang Jingqiao said with a long sigh, "This king can take it down tonight, who would have known about Huang Xing, hey."

Zhao Qingzhi suddenly remembered something when she heard the words, and asked, "Jing Qiao, I remember you said before that this new number one scholar, Huang Xing, is from Huaiyin, right?"

When Jiang Jingqiao heard this, she was startled.
