Chapter 5 The Assassin Appears (2)

Chapter 5: The Assassin Appears (2)

Xu Yunzhen's scalp was tingling when he heard this. Li Yongzuo and him were not just a relationship between superiors and subordinates. Li Heng ranked third, which means that there were at least two above him. These two were sisters. One of them was his niece-in-law, with bones and tendons. They used marriage methods to firmly combine everyone into a collective of interests. They have been standing in the court for many years. Even the powerful Wei Zhongxian had to tolerate them three points, but they all understood one truth. The world belongs to the emperor, and the emperor can give them wealth.

Power can also be taken back. The reason why Zhu Yinglong does not move this cancer is because they penetrate all aspects of society and are powerful. However, one thing is that some of these people are greedy, some are lustful, and some do all the bad things. None of them dares to rebel. This is the fundamental reason why Zhu Yinglong can tolerate their existence. The powerful economy has a great impact on the Ming Dynasty economy and cannot be eliminated at once, including himself. It is just that he can recognize its harm and try not to do vicious monopoly competition and use power to suppress others.

This time his original intention was to punish the big ones. He used this incident to teach Li Yongzuo a lesson. Except for the moment when he learned that Ma Gu was arrested, Zhu Yinglong had not really wanted to kill so far.

He Tengjiao was muttered in his heart whether to summon Li Qing or not. He had no choice but to say first: "I will summon Dr. Li to ask, Miss Ma, now you have to tell me what happened on the night of the Lantern Festival?"

Magu looked upright and said, "This is the thing, I..."

Magu said it concisely, telling the fact that Li Heng forced her and wanted to capture her, and revealing his relationship with "Wufu" at that time. They were just a chance encounter, and they told it in detail after taking action.

"So it's all this Li Heng who jumped into trouble?"

"Yes, sir."

"Before this, did you know Li Heng?"

"A young girl just rushed to the capital from Miaojiang. She was not familiar with the place in the capital. How could she know him?"

"But Hou Mansion determined that you were once the maid who escaped from his family. What explanation would you give?" He Tengjiao asked.

"It's ridiculous. It's only been five days since Magu entered Beijing. How could he be a maid from the Hou Mansion?" Magu said angrily.

"Come on, please take Miss Ma down." He Tengjiao ordered.

Magu was taken down, and He Tengjiao ordered the yamen runners to take Li Yongzuo, the maid of Ruofeng City.

"Mr. Li, I ask you, when did this girl come to your house as a maid?" He Tengjiao asked.

Li Yongzuo replied impatiently: "About the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month last year, I can't remember the specific ones."

"Can Mr. Li know the true identity of this girl?"

"Isn't it just a beggar girl who is about to freeze to death? Why do I know so much about this?" Li Yongzuo snorted coldly, and didn't even look at He Tengjiao at first sight. This made Xu Yunzhen, who was being heard, winked at Li Yongzuo frequently, but Li Yongzuo couldn't see it.

"Since he is a beggar girl, why does Marquis Li want to marry her to the third son and be a concubine?"

"I am attracted to her, but she looks pretty good. Heng'er seems to like her, so she matched her up." Li Yongzuo said lying with his eyes open.

"Mr. Li, do you think this official is a three-year-old child? A woman with unknown identity can actually enter your Hou Mansion, which is strictly controlled by the Hou Mansion and has to be taken as a concubine to the third young master. This does not seem to be the style of your Hou Mansion!" He Tengjiao slapped the agglomeration and shouted loudly.

Li Yongzuo was panicked. The family of the main family picked people into the mansion. None of them had a pure wealth and had no idea who came from unknown origin. He would never dare to recruit them at home. He tried to calm down and said, "Mr. He, this seems to be the family matter of this marquis. What kind of style is not style? Is this your marquis whoever I like to take in will take in? Do you care about whoever I like to take in?"

"Hehe, Mr. Li is afraid he doesn't know. The girl you took in will bring the crime of raiding and extermination of the family to your family?" He Tengjiao knew that Li Yongzuo had been lying, and that such people were familiar with everything about the case trial in the officialdom, so some ordinary methods were of no use to Li Yongzuo, so he had to change his method and force Li Yongzuo to tell the truth!

"Mr. He, you..." Xu Yunzhen suddenly understood He Tengjiao's intentions, and knew that he was about to suffer, so he said anxiously.

"Governor Xu, this is the court of Dali Temple. I am asking questions. Please respect yourself, otherwise I will accept your right to hear!" He Tengjiao retorted without hesitation.

Xu Yunzhen was considered unlucky today, showing that he was pushed by a Yi girl, but now he was rejected by a small Dali Temple Minister. He can't let go of anything. Don't mention that he is too turtle. Li Yongzuo, please beg for blessings today!

After hearing this, Li Yongzuo's expression changed, but he also came through the storm and waves. His calm cultivation was far higher than that of ordinary people, and he said, "Mr. He is not an exaggeration, right? A girl who is almost dead will bring a catastrophe to this lord. Isn't that a joke?"

"Haha, I don't know that Marquis Li doesn't know yet. You took in that girl Ma as the daughter of a chieftain in Miaojiang, which is a rebellion. If I report to the court and participate in you, a criminal criminal who is harboring the rebellion of the court, do you think you can get rid of it?" He Tengjiao had no choice but to use the method of fraudulent confession. This is beneficial to the censor Zhou Wenyuan. The left censor Chen Yangmei simply turned a blind eye, heard nothing, and saw nothing. He was a person who hated evil. Even if he knew that He Tengjiao was suspected of fraudulent confession, he would not say it, because he was here to hear the trial today, not to be a jury. He Tengjiao made a mistake today, and the censor could participate in him tomorrow, but he did not have the power to prevent him from trialing the case today. If he was dissatisfied, he would at most leave the seat angrily.

Li Yongzuo began to sweat coldly on his forehead. How could he know that a little girl's movie had such a big origin that it would actually affect the life of the family.

"Marty Li, you not only take in rebels, but also intend to collude with rebels. You actually want your son to take rebels as a concubine. Your case is clearly written. I didn't frame you, right?" He Tengjiao added another fire. His move was also a dangerous chess. Once he kept silent today, he would have to be charged with slandering important officials of the court. Therefore, when he observed the expression on Li Yongzuo's face, he was extremely nervous.
