Chapter 89 cleverly borrowing the east wind

As soon as Cheng Ying saw the sword mark, he knew that the man was injured by himself.It didn't look like he was letting him go on purpose, but it was caused by a mistake.Under the Chengying sword, there are very few survivors. Even if it is stabbed with a sword, it will be repaired in a vital part, and then leave after making sure that there is no possibility of survival. This person can escape by luck. take into account.

Chengying remembered that day when Yu Songling and Yu Songling led the pursuers to the Yuwan Mountains. At that time, with the help of Yu Songling's magic voice, he went on a killing spree, but due to the large number of soldiers surrounding him, he didn't check them one by one. People are the fish that slipped through the net at that time.In this way, this person should be a member of the Wang Family Army, then Liao Shangshu...

"You are so brave!" Yu Songling yelled angrily, pointing at Liao Shangshu and cursed, "As an official of the imperial court, how dare you secretly harbor traitors? Are you guilty?!"

Liao Shangshu was so frightened that he hurriedly knelt down on the ground, and argued in a daze: "The fourth prince calm down, old minister, I don't understand what the fourth prince means."

"Hmph, do you still want to argue?!" Yu Songling snorted coldly, pointing to the still terrified servant and said, "This man is the subordinate of the traitor Wang Zhan. How could you become your servant? The evidence is solid, what else do you have to say?!"

"Wang, Wang Zhan?! Flying Tiger General Wang Zhan!" Liao Shangshu turned pale with shock. He knew that the person Yu Songling was talking about was the former subordinate of the Second Prince. Officer, there is no more news.Now the assassin in his house has become a member of the Wang family army for no reason, which really made him unable to explain clearly, and hurriedly kowtowed, "Fourth prince, please forgive me, I am wronged, I really don't know anything, please look into it clearly !"

"Scrutinize?! Hmph, I will of course do it!" Yu Songling said coldly, "Come here, put all these people in prison and wait for their punishment!"

"Fourth prince! The minister is wronged! The minister is wronged..." Liao Shangshu was taken down by Yu Songling's guards along with the entourage he brought along with the wailing of grievances.

"Actually, I have been wondering about one thing for a long time." After Liao Shangshu and others were detained, Yu Songling said slowly, "The second emperor's uncle's illegitimate son Jing Yi is in the Jianghu, how can he treat the court affairs like this?" I understand. Since the Second Emperor's Uncle was beheaded, his supporters in the court have also been scattered, and most of them have been dismissed from office and sent back to their hometowns, and it is impossible to report the affairs of the court to Jing Yi."

"You mean, Liao Shangshu and the followers of the Second Prince secretly collude with each other," Cheng Ying asked.

"It's not very likely. If he is really with the second emperor uncle, how could he be so stupid as to let the assassin who assassinated us stand here?"

"This time, although Yan Guo and his party wiped out the Yaoyue Sect in one fell swoop, they let the three Wang brothers escape." Chengying frowned, "Where do you think they will be hiding?"

"The most dangerous place is often the safest place." Yu Songling said word by word, and suddenly said to the guards outside the door, "You immediately bring three hundred elite soldiers to surround Shangshu's mansion, and conduct a careful search of the mansion. Don't let go of any corner! If you find anything, report it to me immediately!"

"Subordinates obey!"

"Chengying..." Yu Songling patted Chengying's pregnant belly lightly, and said with the corner of his mouth curled up, "This time, we might really have something unexpected."

"Report!" A guard outside the door ran quickly, "Report to the fourth prince, Dingguo Company has been escorted to the imperial capital."

"En, very good." Yu Songling said lightly, "Put it in the dungeon first, and let it go after listening."

"Yes!" The guard took out another stack of letters, "I report to the Fourth Prince, these are letters of redress for grievances written by the people in the prefectures and counties under the jurisdiction of Ding Guogong, please Fourth Prince avenge Ding Guogong's grievances."

"Put it on the table." Yu Songling said.

"Yes!"

After the guards retreated, Chengying picked up a thick stack of paper on the table, which was more than ten meters long, and asked, "Don't you want to take a look?"

"Heh~~ This category is something that is created out of nothing, so what's so interesting about it."

"Based on this situation, Ding Guogong is quite loved by the people. You will be found out sooner or later if you impose such an unwarranted crime on him. When the time comes, you will be investigated and found that you are the mastermind behind the framing of him. Then..." Cheng Shadow said worriedly.

"So, this matter must be resolved as soon as possible." Yu Songling said seriously.

"Fourth prince, we have thoroughly searched Shangshu Mansion, and found nothing suspicious." A guard came to report.

"Oh?" Yu Songling frowned slightly, "First arrest everyone in the mansion and put them in jail!"

"Yes!"

In the prison, the jailer was using a whip dipped in salt water to ruthlessly beat a servant of the Shangshu Mansion. The man was beaten to pieces, begging for mercy.Seeing this, Liao Shangshu trembled like chaff, and Liao Yun beside him cried out in fright, the rouge and gouache on his face was smeared by tears and smeared on his face, it was very funny.

The servant screamed for a while, but finally lost his strength and passed out.

"Change another one." Yu Songling waved his hand and said calmly, his eyes quietly observed those people who were captured from the Shangshu Mansion, all of them trembling as if they had lost their souls, almost standing still. I didn't even have the energy to get up.Another servant was dragged to the rack by the jailer crying, and someone came to report.

"Fourth Prince, Grand Tutor Liao Wenqing is asking to see you."

"Heh~~he's finally here." Yu Songling's mouth curled up in a graceful arc, and he said to the jailer, "Keep an eye on them." Then he strode out.

In the hall, Liao Wenqing was pacing back and forth anxiously, when she saw Yu Songling coming, she rushed to greet her.

"Heh~~ Taifu Liao's news is really well-informed." Yu Songling sneered, "What? Do you want to plead for brother Ling?"

"The fourth prince sees it clearly." Liao Wenqing said, "No matter how courageous my foolish brother is, he will definitely not dare to harm the fourth prince."

"Teacher means that the prince has slandered him? Huh?" Yu Songling's tone became more and more stern.

"I don't dare! I dare not!" Cold sweat ran down Liao Wenqing's forehead. On the way here, he had roughly understood what happened. Based on what he knew about this cousin, he didn't have the guts to collude with the rebels. Rebellion, but now all the spearheads are pointed at him, how to defend him has indeed become a problem, if he angers the fourth prince, he will be implicated.

"My lord, I think...there must be something hidden about this matter." Liao Wenqing wiped off his sweat, and said pretending to be calm, "If my foolish brother really joined the rebel party, he would definitely not bring the assassin to the fourth prince's residence in a grandiose manner. Perhaps, those culprits have been lurking in Yudi's mansion for a long time, cooperating with outside rebels. It's just that Yudi is stupid and didn't realize it. He should be punished, but...he won't be charged with treason."

Liao Wenqing's words were thought to go with Yu Songling, but Yu Songling still had a tense face, and said coldly: "Teacher really knows how to excuse his family. What you said is just Guessing, there is no real evidence, even if the traitor is lurking in the Shangshu's mansion, Liao Shangshu is still suspected. For a suspect, he would rather kill by mistake than let him go, the Taifu should understand." Yu Songling approached Liao Wenqing's voice became even deeper, "Assassinating the prince... If I remember correctly, it will implicate the nine clans!"

"Fourth Prince!" Liao Wenqing knelt down on the ground with his legs softening, and kowtowed, "Fourth Prince, spare your life! Fourth Prince, spare your life! This matter is really a great injustice!"

"Wronged? Well, since you are the grand tutor and the teacher of the emperor, this prince will give you a chance." Yu Songling said sadly, "This prince will order you to personally arrest the third rebel Wang Shi. Brother, if they don't fall into the law, you won't be able to return to the imperial capital!"

"Sir...thank you, Fourth Prince, for your kindness!"

The next day, news came out from the court that the minister of the Ministry of Rites was dismissed from office, and the Tai Fu Liao Wenqing was demoted three ranks in a row to track down the whereabouts of the remnants of the rebel army. If they are not brought to justice, they will not be able to return to the court.
