Chapter 490

"Hahahaha, the ghost messenger is coming, black and white impermanent cow head and horse face, you want to trap the souls of all the evil people in the world into the underworld. Zhao Gao, you are about to die. In these few days, King Yama will definitely come back to capture you, but King Yama said that as long as I tell you about it, I will live a few more years... Hahahaha..."

Yan Le's crazy laughter echoed over the silent hall, sounding creepy.

"Your Majesty, Yan Le is obviously crazy, his words are not enough to prove it!" Dian Ke, who was gray and gray, stood up and said.

"Who said I'm crazy! Lord Dianke, is it you? Haha, how could I be crazy? I'm just too happy. King Yama said that my life is not over. As long as I go to court to prove Zhao Gao, I will let me live a few more years. But this time, I'm afraid Lord Dianke can't escape, because you are involved in many bad things Zhao Gao does. Don't think I don't know. You have always had contact with a woman from Wei named Gongsun Beiyan, and that woman has been traveling around Han, Wei, Qi, Chu and other places, and claiming to be the Princess of Wei. This time, Zhao Gao planned to burn Nanyang Cang, and you were threading needles and threading them, so that Zhao Po would take Gongsun Beiyan and Ran Chi, trying to frame the Hou Qinghe..."

Yan Le's words exploded in the court like thunder, which shocked all civil and military officials.

"Bang~" Qin Shihuang couldn't help but slap the table again, "Zhao Gao, it turns out that you were instructing the Ran Chi burning Nanyang Cang this time? Also, who is Gongsun Beiyan? He dares to be the Princess of Wei. Could it be that he wants to rebel against my country!"

"Your Majesty, I have a little understanding. Gongsun Beiyan is a descendant of Gongsun Yan, a famous prime minister of the former Wei Dynasty!" Chen Xu stood up and said.

"Gongsun Yan?" There was a commotion in the court, and it was obvious that this name made everyone feel a little uneasy.

When Gongsun Yan used the technique of the Union and Zong several times to curb Qin, but unfortunately he failed several times. The main reason was that the six countries were not united, but the joint efforts of the Union and Zong suppressed Qin several times still caused great pressure and casualties to Qin, which indeed curbed the rapid development of Qin. Therefore, Gongsun Yan's reputation was still very high, and the people of Qin also hated him to the core.

"So that's what Qinghe Hou has met Gongsun Beiyan?" The tall and big servant stood up and asked.

"Yes, on the day I got married in Wancheng, Gongsun Beiyan and Ran Chi-kun kidnapped Shui at the wedding and forced me to go to Funiu Mountain alone. However, because I found the nests of Ran Chi-kun and other bandits in advance, I arranged for the Imperial Guard to ambush in advance, and then captured Ran Chi-kun in one fell swoop. However, Gongsun Beiyan had a guard with extraordinary martial arts skills, which injured more than a dozen Imperial Guards. I let him go to reduce casualties!" Chen Xu nodded and said.

"Since he is a rebel and there are hundreds of imperial guards around Qinghe Hou, why should he let him go? It is a serious crime to be a bandit for trouble. I wonder what explanation does Qinghe Hou give?" Another minister stood up and said.

Chen Xu glanced at the middle-aged minister and said with a calm expression: "Why should I explain that the attack on bandits is a local official, what does it have to do with me? Besides, forcibly blocking it, the imperial guards may suffer heavy casualties. Besides, just a woman, even if she gives her ten thousand troops, how can she make a big wave? Do you still need your guidance when doing things?"

"You..." The minister sat down with a choked face and a thick neck.

After hearing Chen Xu's explanation, Qin Shihuang seemed to have figured it out suddenly. Indeed, if a woman, if she doesn't say she has 10,000 troops, she will probably not be able to withstand the fierce soldiers of the Qin Dynasty. So Qin Shihuang also put this aside and looked at Dian Ke coldly: "Come here, take Dian Ke Yu Tong, and detain him in the Ministry of Justice's prison to strictly interrogate him for the crime of bandits!"

"Here~" Several more imperial guards rushed into the hall.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I am wronged. Yan Le is complicit in the false accusation of me..."

"Would you be accused of you? You will know if you investigate and take it away~" Yin Wu waved his hand, and Dian Ke Yu Tong was dragged out of the hall by the imperial guards while struggling and shouting.

"Your Majesty, I have decided not to send my retainers and servants to kill Ma Boyuan and others, nor have I appointed my retainers to collude with Ran Chiang and bandits to hijack the Marquis of Qinghe. It must be that the Marquis of Qinghe colluded with Yan Le to frame the ministers. I have never had any bad intentions for decades to assist Your Majesty. Please find out the whole story and clear the injustice for me..." Zhao Gao was so scared that he broke free from the two imperial guards and knelt on the ground and kowtowed hard.

"Your Majesty, I had a dream late at night before yesterday. I dreamed of a place called Yan Luo Palace, where there was an emperor wearing a crown and a mysterious suit. He claimed that he was the King of Yama in the underworld, and gave me a stack of papers and said that Zhao Gao committed evil deeds and killed innocent people. These were the confessions given by the ghost officer after he held Yan Le's soul into the underworld. I reached out and suddenly woke up, but there was an confession beside my pillow for no reason. The one listed above was Zhao Gao killing Ma Boyuan.

The confession of the person who signed the signing and obligor was Yan Le. All of this was not inconsistent with the situation I investigated. Therefore, I specially arranged someone to ask Yan Le. Yan Le indeed admitted that these were all evidence of Zhao Gao's crimes confessed by him after being detained by a ghost messenger in the underworld. Your Majesty, Yan Le's confession is here, and Yan Le also personally proves Zhao Gao. Such a crime is extremely evil. I suggest that he be sentenced to death!" Meng Yi took out a thick stack of hemp pulp and paper from his sleeve.

"Come on the confession!" Qin Shihuang's face turned dark, and a messenger quickly crossed a stack of hemp pulp and paper from Meng Yi's hand and sent it to the imperial case.

Qin Shihuang looked carefully page by page, and finally looked at the signature and a bloody finger mark on it, staring at Zhao Gao angrily and said sternly: "Zhao Gao, you not only instructed Yan Le to forge the order to kill Ma Boyuan and Yong to defeat Cao Kun and other people, but also instructed the slaves to collude with Ran Chiang and others to conspire to burn more than 300,000 stones of food in Nanyang Cang, and also kidnap Qinghe Hou to help the rebels get the method of making Taiyi Divine Thunder. These are all serious crimes. I will immediately take Zhao Gao to the death priest. No one is allowed to visit him. I will make a decision after all the crimes are investigated clearly!"

Listening to Qin Shihuang's words, Chen Xu closed his eyes weakly.

Damn it, he was not killed even if he committed such a great crime. No wonder Meng Yi was unwilling to take on this hot potato.

Meng Yi's face was calm, as if he had known that the emperor would not kill Zhao Gao immediately. He turned his hand and took out a stack of hemp pulp from his sleeve like a jingling cat. He reported loudly: "Your Majesty, Zhao Gao was extremely guilty. He was not just to kill innocent people, colluded with thieves to burn the granary, framed Qinghe Hou and other three crimes. I also had two confessions in my hand. At that time, Zhao Gao participated in Shang Tu and Ao Ping's plot against rebellion. Ao Ping was the three tribes of Yi, and Shang Tu's family was moved to Shu, but was secretly sent by Zhao Gao to kill all his servants in the mountains at the border between Hanzhong and Shu County. Ao Ping and Shang Tu knew that they would die, so they both secretly wrote confessions to communicate with Zhao Gao in the prison of the Ministry of Justice. Both confessions proved that Zhao Gao was also guilty of rebellion!"

“Support it!”

"Here~" An envoy quickly put the hemp pulp paper in Meng Yi's hand on the desk again. This confession was written by Shang Tu and Ao Ping in prison. Qin Shihuang was already angry at this time. He quickly finished reading the confession. Looking at Shang Tu's signature and seal at the end, he waved the things on the desk with a big sleeve and swept the things on the desk all over the floor. A jade seal actually fell from nine floors of steps and rolled down to the center of the hall.

"Haha, Zhao Gao, you are very good, very good. I regard you as a brother and entrusted the position of the Nine Ministers to enjoy wealth and glory. I have never refused any requests for you on weekdays. I didn't expect that I was so rebellious and wanted to plot against my country. Where is the court magistrate? What should I be guilty of planning to rebel against the country?" Qin Shihuang stood up, and was angry and roared loudly like a lion.

"Report to Your Majesty, you should be punished for treason!" Yin Wu said loudly with his fists.

"Death crime, how can death crime vent my hatred, drag it down and get into death prison, eliminate the identity of Zhao Gao's royal family, arrest the three tribes of Zhao Gao, choose a day to split the car and abandon the market, and the three tribes of Yi!"

"Your Majesty, please spare me. Your Majesty, I have never had the intention to rebel. This is all Meng Yi framed me... Your Majesty... Your Majesty..."

Looking at Zhao Gao who was dragged away with great wail, the heart-wrenching cry echoed throughout the hall, and all the civil and military officials in the court were in a state of chaos. Twenty years later, the punishment of the splitting of the car appeared in the court again, and in addition to the royal family who was most favored by the emperor.

It was not until Zhao Gao was dragged out of the court for a long time that the civil and military officials in the court finally slowly woke up, and he finally tasted a chilling smell from Meng Yi's attacks like a storm.

Meng Yi was like a beast dormant in the dark. After planning for a long time, he finally took advantage of Zhao Zhe's affairs and completely slashed Zhao Gao, the royal family member, into pieces.

Therefore, once they realized it, all the civil and military officials in the court were pale and dared not look up and watch Meng Yi with a calm face, including the left prime minister Li Si.

In addition, Li Si's face was twisted and he kept wiping the sweat on his forehead with his sleeves.

A month ago, after Chen Xu insulted him in front of the emperor in Zichen Hall, Zhao Gao specially invited him to have a banquet in the mansion. At the banquet, Zhao Gao mentioned several times how arrogant and domineering Chen Xu relied on his identity as a disciple of the immortal family and the emperor's favor. He hoped that Li Si could join forces with him to deal with Chen Xu, otherwise he might threaten Li Si's status as the left prime minister in the future.

If Chen Xu was an ordinary person, perhaps Li Si would have joined forces with Zhao Gao for his own power and status. However, it was precisely because of the identity of Chen Xu's disciple that Li Si dared not act rashly, so he did not agree to Zhao Gao's joint plan.

If he had agreed at that time, Li Si would have thought that he would have been involved in framed Chen Xu this time, and then his fate would definitely not be much better than Zhao Gao.

Moreover, he saw Chen Xu invite Meng Yi to Qinghe Garden for a banquet several times, so today's affairs were definitely not done by Meng Yi alone, and Qinghe Hou must also be the mastermind.
