Chapter 302: Shit Pot (Part 2)
"The military department's prison cell was robbed and jailed? Still dead?"
In the palace, Yaqian Hall, Yuan Bolang, who was originally discussing the issue of reducing the vassal states with the emperor, asked in surprise when he heard the news brought by Liu Yu.
After getting the affirmative answer, Yuan Bolang said with a dark face: "Chang'an City has been repeatedly disturbed by such lawless people recently. It is time to rectify the public security of Chang'an City!"
As he said that, he actually touched the public security, which was to the head of Sui Yi, the prefect of Jingzhao.
Su Yan didn't care about this, looked at Liu Yu and asked, "Master, those bandits robbed the prison, but someone in the prison cell was robbed?"
Liu Yu said: "Fortunately, I moved the prisoner away in advance, so no prisoner was kidnapped. Instead, the prisoner and the guards injured several lives. The assassin escaped unscathed."
"Ah?" Su Yan said in surprise.
Yuan Bolang frowned and said, "Wuyihou, how could you transfer the prisoner for no reason?"
It seems that Yuan Bolang still doesn't believe him. Liu Yuxin thought, and smiled and said, "Because there was only one prisoner in the military department before, the county lord of Chongqing County who had just been arrested for assassinating a minister. Yuan Xiang, don't you think that this marquis colluded with those bandits?"
Yuan Bolang smiled ashamed and said, "So that's the case. The purpose of the bandit should be to rob the Lord of Chongping County." Suddenly, a shiny light flashed on Yuan Bolang's face, "Is it related to the Prince of Hejian and the King of Shu?"
Now the vassal kings headed by the King of Shu are in a confrontation with the court. At this time, such cases occurred, and Yuan Bolang naturally felt the political interests contained therein.
Liu Yu said: "It is precisely because of this that I come to see the emperor and ask the emperor to issue an order to isolate the King of Shu, the Prince of Hejian and his entourage. I will investigate the matter thoroughly!"
Su Yan nodded and said, "No matter whether this matter is related to the King of Shu, things must be investigated clearly. What should Yuan Xiang do if he is interested?"
Yuan Bolang and Liu Yu were a little disagreeable on weekdays. However, on the stance of reducing the vassal states, their interests were consistent, and they were all considered for the stability of the new emperor's throne. Yuan Bolang said: "The Chang'an City Military Department's yamen was disturbed, and the matter was very important. It is most appropriate for the investigation by the Marquis of Wuyi!"
Liu Yu is the actual master of military power in Chang'an City now, and no one is more suitable for investigation than him.
"But..." Yuan Bolang immediately added, "Wuyi Hou is still in charge of this imperial examination, and he may not be able to take into account both!"
Su Yan asked Liu Yu and said, "What does the master mean?"
Liu Yu said: "I am indeed a little too busy to be in a hurry. However, as a military general, I naturally have to take the safety of Chang'an City as the first priority. I recommend the Sui Prefecture of Beijing to replace me and continue to be responsible for this imperial examination, so that there is no delay!"
Sui Yi originally thought that he was just arrested to report the case, but he didn't expect that he would ask him to take charge of the imperial examination if he solved the case. He was immediately energetic and had little knowledge, but he could become a famous mentor for so many Jinshis, which was a very honorable thing for him.
Yuan Bolang glanced at Sui Yi, probably still suspected Sui Yi's knowledge, but it was only recommended by Liu Yu. It was also a painless errand, and he didn't want to object. His original idea was to let Liu Yu continue to be responsible for the imperial examination and let Sui Yi investigate the case, but the person involved in this case was the king of Shu and other vassal kings, and only Liu Yu's identity could suppress them.
"So." Su Yan looked at Sui Yi and said, "It's a blessing for Sui's beloved!"
"I will definitely complete this task!"
Sui Yi happily followed Liu Yu out of the palace and prepared to go straight to the examination room.
Liu Yu received the imperial edict and was about to go to the Shu King's House and the Hejian County Prince's House to get people when he saw Sui Yi's hurrying appearance, he reminded him: "Don't you go to Jingzhao Mansion to take care of it first?"
"It's okay. When there is no big deal in the Jingzhao Government office, there is not much more me, but less me. After such a glorious family, how can I get better if I don't get faster!" As he said that, he had already entered the sedan chair and asked the sedan chairman to trot all the way toward the academy.
Liu Yu and his soldiers directly surrounded the Shu King's other halls in the capital. The Shu King was not willing to be outdone. He thought that Liu Yu had given the emperor's order to search the house. When the Shu King brought the prince and some entourage out, he realized that Liu Yu was robbed of prison in the military department.
The first thought of the King of Shu was to commit crimes. He knew very well that he had never done what Liu Yu said, and Liu Yu brought his troops and was ordered by the emperor. It was obvious that the court wanted to take advantage of the issue. In fact, the prison robbery might have been written, directed and acted by Liu Yu himself.
This time, the King of Shu brought more than 200 soldiers to Chang'an City. At this time, he was all aiming at the outside world and formed a confrontation with Liu Yu's musket team.
Huang Fang confronted each other, as if the sword was tense and evenly matched, but a row of Shu King's soldiers stood there, which was simply the most suitable row of gun targets. Liu Yu really wanted to shout "shooting" and knock them all down, but he thought that he was here to "reason" today, so he suppressed the thought in his heart.
"Your Highness, the King of Shu, you are not afraid of being slanted. Since you say it was not yours, you must go back and explain it clearly to us. We just want to ask King of Shu to go back and assist in the investigation. Well, this assist in the investigation means that as long as it is found that it is not the prison that King of Shu, you sent someone to rob, you will be sent back here safely. It is not a wise move to resist the law!" Liu Yu said arrogantly.
The King of Shu said angrily: "You Liu Wenyan, you dare to put shit basin on my head. I will come to the palace to face the saint! Please ask the emperor for the saint!"
"No need, I not only do the job under the emperor's order, but also have the imperial edict. Should I read it to you in public?"
The King of Shu was considered a hero and could not bear Liu Yu's tone, but the prince beside the King of Shu, a middle-aged man pulled the King of Shu's sleeve and whispered to the King of Shu twice. It was probably because the King of Shu was considering the overall situation.
The King of Shu opened up the territory and broke up the territory and fought against some local forces in Shu and the Southern Barbarians. His descendants had basically never experienced a big battle. At this time, he advised the King of Shu to consider the interests of other vassal kings now. If the King of Shu did not obey the emperor's orders, Liu Yu could do vicious things at any time, and the court would have sufficient reasons to support Liu Yu's evil deeds afterwards.
"Since it's just... help with the investigation!" said King Shu, "Then I will go with you, but I will only involve me. I cannot implicate the rest of the Shu Palace!"
"Okay, I will handle everything impartially!" Liu Yu agreed readily.
Liu Yu immediately asked someone to come forward to escort the King of Shu, and was very polite to the King of Shu, but just asked the soldiers to follow him from behind, without any tying up or adding fists. After taking down the King of Shu, Liu Yu still had no intention of withdrawing his troops, saying that the troops would continue to besiege the King of Shu's Mansion and resolve the matter.
Liu Yu also led his troops to take down the people from the Hejian County Prince's House. Zhao Su, who had only met in the morning, became his prisoner at this time.
Zhao Su seemed to have expected that Liu Yu would not give up and did not react very strangely. He only looked at Liu Yu in surprise and panic when he heard Liu Yu's voice, "Madam Zhao will see her daughter soon."
This surprise and fear made Liu Yu puzzled at first, but when he thought about it, it was probably Zhao Su who thought he had killed Zhao Yingxi! He was preparing to send them to meet on the road to the underworld.
Am I that bad? Liu Yu asked himself.
The mobilization of troops in the city aroused the alertness of other vassal kings, but because the emperor has not issued an order to allow the vassal kings to leave, they can only wait for news in the mansion. Liu Yu detained the King of Shu and Zhaosu respectively. At night, the person secretly transferred to the secret cell in the theater. In this way, even if the mysterious man wanted to rob people, he could not find the location of the jail door. (To be continued, please search Piaotianwen, the novel is better and faster!
