Chapter 442
Ming Chengzu thought about it and said to the prince: "Okay! Gao Chi, your father will hand over Yang Qiuchi's case to you personally handle. After the investigation is made, report it to your father."
Crown Prince Zhu Gaochi bowed to accept the order.
Ming Chengzu said to Yang Qiuchi again: "Before the truth is revealed, your family cannot leave the Marquis' Mansion. Gao Chi led the Yulin Avant-garde to supervise it. If your case is verified to be wronged, I will naturally give you justice. If it is verified to be true, I can destroy your nine clans! Do you understand?"
Yang Qiuchi felt hope in his heart, kowtowed, and said gratefully: "The emperor can give me a chance to clear my grievances. I am grateful to me, thank you for your kindness!"
To be honest, when the evidence on the surface was so tough and all the accomplices were executed by Ling Chi, the emperor simply spoke out to himself and allowed a review. This was really a great emperor's grace. Yang Qiuchi couldn't help but feel unhappy.
The reason why Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty made this decision was mainly based on the following considerations:
First, the loopholes in this case that Yang Qiuchi mentioned made Ming Chengzu also suspicious; and Yang Qiuchi's arrest of Jianwen's remaining party worked hard and made great contributions, and it was indeed inappropriate to handle it hastily. If there are doubts about the case, he would kill the heroes, which would easily give people a word to cook;
Second, Yang Qiuchi is indeed a rare talent. Ming Chengzu now needs such a person to help him pick up the rebels and consolidate the regime, and he is unwilling to kill him so hasty. This is also the reason why Ming Chengzu did not directly hand him over to Jinyiwei Ji Gang for handling and interrogate himself;
Third, of course, it is the entrusted by the crown prince Zhu Gaochi. Although Emperor Chengzu of Ming Dynasty did not like this crown prince very much, he also had to maintain the tradition of the feudal eldest son's succession, maintain the position of the crown prince, and give the crown prince a face.
Therefore, Emperor Chengzu of Ming Dynasty allowed a re-investigation of the case and instructed Prince Zhu Gaochi to be responsible.
Jun Wu said that when the emperor opened his golden mouth, there was no way to change it. Ji Gang was so angry that he was itchy with Yang Qiuchi, but he had no choice but to think secretly about how to frame Yang Qiuchi further.
Yang Qiuchi was temporarily relieved. He breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Emperor, since I have allowed Weichen and his family to be under house arrest and waiting for investigation, Weichen wants to ask the emperor to ask Ji Gang to return my concubine Song Yuner and the other three guards."
Ming Chengzu nodded and looked at Ji Gang. Ji Gang had no choice but to go out and whispered to the Jinyiwei to bring Song Yuner and others.
Zhu Gaochi bowed to Ming Chengzu and said, "Father, my son will first arrange for the Yulin Foreward to supervise the Marquis' Mansion, and then start an investigation."
Ming Chengzu nodded. Zhu Gaochi left the imperial study room of Qianqing Palace.
After a while, Song Yuner, Nangong Xiong, Xu Shiling and Shi Qiujian were tied up by a rope of bull tendons and were knocked down and knelt down. Nangong Xiong and the other three were obviously tortured and tortured, covered in blood.
Song Yuner was not punished. It turned out that Ji Gang believed that the evidence was enough. Moreover, Song Yuner would be sentenced to a slave to a hero's family in the future. This hero was obviously Ji Gang himself. He did not want to destroy Song Yuner's handsome slave.
Although Ji Gang had mastered Song Yuner's information, he did not understand Song Yuner's personality, otherwise he would not have thought so. Because if Song Yuner really became his slave that day, that is, Ji Gang's death date.
When Song Yuner saw Yang Qiuchi, she shouted in surprise: "Brother~!" Tears flowed down her face.
Yang Qiuchi knelt over and hugged Song Yuner, feeling distressed, and asked softly: "Have they hit you?"
"No! They attacked me with fishing nets and tied me up and kept locked in a room. Brother, are you okay?" Song Yuner tied her hands behind her back, snuggled in Yang Qiuchi's arms, and asked cryingly.
"I'm fine. Don't worry, let's go home now." After that, he untied the rope for Song Yuner.
Then, Yang Qiuchi and Song Yuner untied the ropes for Nangong Xiong and the others respectively.
Just now, the emperor had promised to let Song Yuner, Nangong Xiong and others go back with Yang Qiuchi, so Ji Gang couldn't stop him.
Nangong Xiong and others saw that Yang Qiuchi was safe and sound, so they untied the rope for themselves, and the Emperor and Ji Gang did not stop him. They thought that Yang Qiuchi had already done the matter, and were overjoyed.
Nangong Xiong said: "Marty, this guy from Pu Fan Valley..."
Yang Qiuchi waved his hand: "I already know." He patted Nangong Xiong on the shoulder, "You three would rather die than betray me. It's great. They will be my good brothers in the future!"
Ji Gang interrupted coldly and said, "From now? Hehe, I will have a companion to be a ghost together in the future."
Nangong Xiong and three others were tortured by Ji Gang Jinyiwei, trying to make the three of them accused Yang Qiuchi, but they were flatly rejected by the three of them. The three of them and Yang Qiuchi were born and died and decided to share life and death. Even though they were tortured, they did not rebel.
Yang Qiuchi looked at Ji Gang and smiled coldly: "Okay, let's bet and see who is the first to be a ghost!" He ignored him and turned around and kowtowed to Ming Chengzu, "I will take my leave!"
Ming Chengzu waved his hand expressionlessly.
Yang Qiuchi got up and took the four of them out of the door.
Dozens of Yulin vanguards were waiting outside the door and escorted Yang Qiuchi and others to walk outside the palace.
Seeing this attitude, Song Yuner asked worriedly: "Brother, what's going on?"
Yang Qiuchi said in a deep voice: "Ji Gang, a dog thief, framed me and almost killed me. Now the emperor ordered our family to be placed under house arrest in the mansion, and the Crown Prince Zhu Gaochi was personally responsible for investigating the case of Ji Gang framing us. Find out and deal with it."
Song Yuner said anxiously: "What should I do?"
"Don't worry, I think the prince is very fair. He should be able to find out the case of Ji Gang's flaws and clear me up. Let's go back first and discuss it."
Under the escort of the Yulin Forewarts, Yang Qiuchi and his group returned to Yanghou Mansion.
At this moment, Yang Hou's Mansion was surrounded by the Jinyiwei. Most of Yang Qiuchi's original guard team had been recruited by Ji Gang. Only Xia Ping and more than ten male and female guards who were swearing to follow Yang Qiuchi to death were unwilling to leave at the critical moment of the Yang family, so they disobeyed and stayed, and wanted to live and die with the Yang family.
After the prince brought the Yulin vanguard, he replaced the Jinyiwei and strictly monitored the periphery of the Hou Mansion, and strictly prohibited anyone from entering and leaving.
Yang's mother, Feng Xiaoxue and others were already restless like ants on the ground on the hot pan. When they saw Yang Qiuchi come back, they hurriedly met him.
Feng Xiaoxue was about to cry anxiously: "Husband, you are back. Not long after you left, our family was surrounded by hundreds of Jinyiwei, and no one allowed him to go out. What happened?"
Yang Qiuchi looked around the girls and briefly said what had just happened. After hearing this, the girls were both glad and worried.
Liu Ruobing said angrily: "I'll find a way to sneak out and kill Ji Gang, the dog thief!"
Yang Qiuchi waved his hand: "You can't kill him now."
The women said wonderingly: "Why?"
"If we kill him now, the emperor will definitely know that it is us who do the land, and if we think we are guilty of being thieves, we will kill people to silence us, and we will not be able to wash our eyes even if we jump into the Yellow River."
Song Yuner said, "What should I do? Can you let him be so proud?"
"Of course not!" Yang Qiuchi gritted his teeth, "I am irreconcilable with Ji Gang, a dog thief! Now it's either he dies or I live. This revenge must be avenged. If you can't kill him, there will be no way to live! However, we have to wait until the case is investigated and we have made a clear decision before we can take action against him. Moreover, unless it is absolutely necessary, there is no need to assassinate this move, because he must beware of us assassinating him now, and it will not be easy to succeed. Besides, I don't want him to die so easily. I have to deal with him upright and kill him! I swear, Yang Qiuchi must let him die miserably!"
This was the first time Yang Qiuchi was framed by others, and he was almost killed by the whole family. Zhu destroyed the nine clans. He couldn't help but get angry and decided to deal with Ji Gang to the end.
Immediately, Yang Qiuchi and others discussed in detail what to do, made the worst plan, cleaned up the gold, silver and soft, and thought about how to deal with it if the situation was not good.
Now I am waiting for the result of the investigation of the case by Prince Zhu Gaochi.
Nangong Xiong, Xu Shiling, Shi Qiujian and Xia Ping brought the remaining ten guards to the mansion to prevent Ji Gang from sending people to assassinate.
While Yang Qiuchi and his girls were talking in the living room, the concierge came to report that the Prince Zhu Gaochi was visiting.
Yang Qiuchi was overjoyed that he had a life-threatening life this time, which was largely due to Zhu Gaochi's entrusting, and hurried to the door.
Seeing Zhu Gaochi's fat figure, Yang Qiuchi felt particularly kind and bowed and said, "Sir, please see the prince. The prince's grace of his life is unforgettable for Qiuchi!"
Zhu Gaochi smiled and gave a greeting: "Mr. Yang is so serious. Let's talk in the room."
Yang Qiuchi welcomed Zhu Gaochi to the living room. Zhu Gaochi asked the guards to wait outside the living room and followed Yang Qiuchi into the living room.
The women had already avoided the inner hall. After Yang Qiuchi and Zhu Gaochi sat down, Zhu Gaochi said, "Marty, do you know the purpose of this prince?"
Yang Qiuchi was slightly stunned and said, "The prince was ordered to investigate the case. If you have any questions, you should ask the officials?"
Zhu Gaochi shook his head: "Before the Marquis came to Beijing, I heard a lot about you. Your ability to solve the case left a deep impression on me. Commander Ji said that you, together with Concubine Shun and others, murdered Concubine Xian and destroyed Concubine Xian's body. I never believed this."
Yang Qiuchi felt a warm current flowing all over his body. He stood up and bowed deeply, and his words were choked: "Thank you for the prince...! The prince's kindness to Qiuchi... Although Qiuchi was heartbroken, he could not repay him!"
Zhu Gaochi smiled slightly, called Yang Qiuchi to sit down, and said, "Although I believe you were wronged, I know nothing about solving the case and don't know how to find out the case. I have a satisfactory explanation to my father, so I come to discuss it with you."
