"Hmph! I thought your bones were so hard!"
Zhao Jun snorted coldly, sheathed the sword and threw it back to Wang Huaien.
Just when He Yuancheng thought it was over, Zhao Jun grabbed him by the collar and walked out like a dog.
"Hey! Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Your Majesty has said it! I have said everything, what are you going to do! Where do you want to take me!"
Mei Yuanxi on the side also hurriedly came up and said: "My lord, you have got the news you want. Where do you want to take He Yuancheng? He is also an official of the court after all, so please show mercy."
After all, he was more or less his subordinate, so he couldn't really watch him being dragged away from the Inspection Department.
Zhao Jun said coldly:
"Where to go? Of course, to meet the saint!
Didn't he say he was from the Taiwei's house? I will take him to see the Holy Spirit now and let him explain the whole story clearly in front of his father! "
Naturally, Zhao Jun would not be so stupid as to go to the Taiwei Mansion alone to question him. Although he had power in the capital, it was secretly and could not be brought to light for the time being.
Naturally, you can only go through formal channels.
A prince's horse was snatched away by the Taiwei's men in broad daylight. This was an eye-catching incident no matter which dynasty it was placed in.
Unless that lieutenant is really so arrogant that he can cover the sky with one hand, just like Sima Zhao, whose heart is known to everyone.
Otherwise, no matter how powerful he becomes, he will still have to give an explanation!
Zhao Jun is going to make a big deal out of this matter now!
The commotion spread throughout the city!
He Yuancheng immediately panicked. It was okay that he had been exposed in private, but the Taiwei was not known to others. At most, they only suspected him.
But once he directly pointed at the Taiwei in public and said that he did it, then Taiwei Ding Nie would definitely not give him a good lesson afterwards!
He quickly begged.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! No! If you lower your rank like this, you will die miserably! Your Majesty, please spare your life!"
Zhao Jun sneered unmoved and said:
"If you don't do this, I will let you die miserably now, or you can take this matter on yourself. As the leader of the forbidden army class, you collude with others to rob the prince of the dynasty. Tsk tsk tsk! Guess! Guess what the crime is?
This is not much different from plotting against terrorism, right?
To him, Ding Nie, this crime is not big or small, but to you, do you think it is the nine tribes that have been eliminated, or the three tribes?
Do you want us to take a gamble? "
He Yuancheng was dumbfounded. He didn't expect that just doing a small favor to the captain would lead to a big disaster in the end.
His face suddenly became sad, and he stopped struggling, letting Zhao Jun drag him out like a dead dog.
When two powers harm each other, he still understands the principle of choosing the lesser.
The prince is right. This matter may not matter to the Taiwei. He is a high-ranking and powerful person, and it is impossible for the Holy One to make the nine tribes of the Taiwei happy just because of this matter.
But he is just a small leader!
If you put this matter on your head, it would be a serious crime. Who knows if it is from three tribes or nine tribes, but a lot of people will definitely die.
As the saying goes, a dead Taoist friend never dies a poor Taoist. This responsibility belongs to the Taiwei, so let the Taiwei take the blame.
As for the Taiwei's revenge later, he couldn't control that much anymore.
Mei Yuanxi on the side saw that things had developed to this point and did not dare to stop him anymore. He had to step aside and quickly ordered people to clean up the other inspection department personnel along the way to prevent many of them from seeing this scene. The impact is not good.
But the movement of the Forbidden Army Squadron was so loud that the entire Inspection Department had already heard about it. I don’t know how many people came to watch, and even if the place was cleared, it was not that fast.
Many people saw with their own eyes that He Yuancheng, the leader of the forbidden army squad, was dragged away by Zhao Jun by the collar like a dead dog.
Everyone started talking about it, and soon the truth of the matter was revealed from the insiders.
After learning about the situation, everyone shook their heads and sighed. Commander He was really bold. He dared to get involved in such a big shot's affairs.
Many people saw him taking a few people to patrol in the direction of Miyagi today. Others were wondering why he went there in person. It turned out that he was afraid that his subordinates would not know and disturb the Taiwei's work, so he led the patrol in person to cooperate with others.
Well now, if you please one and offend the other, they will knock on the door and drag you away.
All I can say is, it’s your own fault!
Zhao Jun and others walked in front, and Mei Yuanxi followed behind.
There was no way, he was the envoy of the Inspection Department, and they would come after him no matter what. Instead of waiting for His Majesty to send someone to find him, he might as well follow him himself.
Along the way, the patrol officers in charge of the curfew saw such a big movement and ran over to arrest someone. However, when they got closer, they discovered that the boss of the family was following behind, and they all fled away with the discernment.
The group of people arrived at the entrance of the palace with open fire.
It was dark now and the palace door was locked.
According to the rules of the palace, no one has the right to open the locked palace door without the Holy Emperor's will, otherwise it will be treated as treason.
The imperial troops on the palace wall were startled when they saw the battle below, and they all raised their weapons and were on guard.
A general guarding the palace wall even asked loudly: "Who is coming?! The palace door has been locked. If you have anything to do, come back tomorrow!"
But I heard Zhao Jun say loudly: "I, King Yun, Zhao Jun, want to meet the Holy One and report the case!"
The general was stunned when he heard King Yun, but when he heard the word report, he was a little confused.
Report a crime? What case to report? !
If you don’t report the case to Tianfengfu Yamen, why are you coming to the palace?
But the general didn't care so much, and still replied loudly:
"It turns out that Prince Yun is here to see you. Please forgive me for being a low-ranking military official. Without His Majesty's will, I still can't let you in.
Your Majesty, the palace door has been locked. Please come back tomorrow if you need anything! "
Zhao Jun knew he couldn't open the door, so he nodded and walked aside without any embarrassment.
The general immediately breathed a sigh of relief and secretly thought that Prince Yun was quite easy to talk to and didn't embarrass himself by messing around here.
Mei Yuanxi and He Yuancheng who were being dragged on the side also breathed a sigh of relief, at least they can be delayed until tomorrow.
But gradually everyone discovered something was wrong!
Where did King Yun go? Why is something so wrong?
That place, isn't that place where Denwen Drum is located?
The Dengwen Drum was set up by the founder Taizu at the beginning of the Song Dynasty. It was prepared for people who had grievances to repay but had nowhere to redress. As long as the Dengwen Drum was beaten, no matter what the emperor was doing, he had to stop immediately and summon Hundreds of officials went to court to hear the case.
Since the establishment of the Dengwen Drum, no one has beaten it since then except for the early period of the founding of the People's Republic of China.
After all, local officials also have their own ideas, and most people don't know about it.
But this rule has always been there, and Zhao Jun also knows about it!
So today he is here to beat the Dengwen drum that has not been sounded for a century!
There is an official guarding the area near the Dengwen Drum, who is responsible for entering the palace to notify the Holy One after someone beats the Dengwen Drum.
But the Dengwen drum had not sounded for a hundred years, and the clerk was dozing in a small room nearby.
suddenly!
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
The deafening drum beat suddenly woke the clerk from his sleep.
The clerk was about to curse loudly, who stayed up late at night playing drums, but then he suddenly remembered something and his pupils widened.
Everyone suddenly woke up and ran out of the room quickly. At a glance, he saw a young man holding a drumstick and beating the drum!
At this time, the little official only had one idea in his mind!
The Denwen drum was actually beaten!
What am I going to do? Oh, it’s time to report to the palace!
The clerk suddenly came back to his senses, his expression changed drastically, and he rushed to the city wall and shouted at them to put down the hanging basket!
The general guarding the city naturally saw the situation here, and had no choice but to let his men lower the hanging basket and pick up the clerk.
Then he looked at the running figure of the little official and sighed. He waved his hand to his subordinates to get ready and open the palace door as soon as the order came.
