"Your Highness, who doesn't want to sit in the position of chief minister of the cabinet?! But Weichen doesn't want his purple robe to be dyed red by the blood of innocent people."
The prince's face twitched slightly.
Although Yang Qingyuan didn't say anything, he was criticizing Sang and Huai.
"What do commoners do to His Highness?! Are they just cattle and sheep?! I am originally a commoner and cannot be indifferent to others."
In Jianghu stories, it often appears that after someone has gained great power, they regard human life as nothing and treat all living beings like ants.
Yang Qingyuan has always felt that this is not a practitioner, but a simple power machine. With only power and no corresponding state of mind, what kind of strong person is it? !
Unexpectedly, the same is true in reality. In the eyes of this noble prince, all living beings are just ants? ! A hundred lives are not worth regretting? !
After graduating from his previous life, Yang Qingyuan was admitted to the grassroots procuratorate in the central region.
Although the twenty-five-year-old chief of the prosecution section is still a grassroots cadre, his future is already bright.
But he was from an ordinary working-class background. He went to school hard, went through the college entrance examination, and faced countless competitions like him before he passed the single-plank bridge and finally stood out.
When he arrived in this world, although he had great power and a lot of power, Yang Qingyuan stuck to his heart and never thought of being superior to others.
The prince's attitude at this time was one of the things Yang Qingyuan hated the most.
Little did he know that the prince's heart was complicated and tangled at the moment. Of course he knew the crime Zhou Mingsheng had committed. One hundred lives was not a simple number for most people.
Although the prince must learn to weigh and be ruthless because he has learned the emperor's mind since childhood, the emperor's mind is not the way to kill people.
Of course the prince knew that Zhou Mingsheng deserved to die.
The best thing to do is to hand over Zhou Mingsheng, make good friends with Yang Qingyuan, and resolve the conflicts between the two parties. This will not only avoid embarrassment, but also make good friends with the "first and third factions" headed by Yang Qingyuan, consolidate his position, and ensure a smooth accession to the throne.
Zhong Ce was indifferent and allowed Yang Qingyuan to capture Zhou Mingsheng. Although this would not add points, it would not make him an enemy of Yang Qingyuan, a rising political star, and the princess would be able to deal with it.
For the sake of the Crown Princess, the Crown Prince, who had always been wise, steady and kind, chose the wrong strategy.
People have all kinds of worries and constraints in the world.
The Crown Princess Zhou Mingyu is the Crown Prince's greatest concern, and at this time she has become the Crown Prince's greatest constraint.
Although the Crown Princess was frail and sickly, she was virtuous and virtuous and managed the affairs of the East Palace in an orderly manner.
And the prince took great care of the princess.
Although the prince had concubines, they were all concubines he took before marrying the prince and were later promoted to the position of concubine. Since the prince married the prince, the prince has never had a new concubine.
The relationship between the two is as good as gold.
The prince regards the crown prince as important as the ninety-five position.
The Crown Princess Zhou Mingyu has never asked the Crown Prince for anything, only this time she hopes that the Crown Prince can save Zhou Mingsheng a way out.
It was really hard for the prince to refuse such a request.
That's why today's scene happened.
"You can still add more money!"
Yang Qingyuan glanced at the prince in confusion, adding more weight to the chief minister of the cabinet? !
"The First Emperor's secret treasure! I can share half of it with Lord Yang!"
Power, wealth, and beauty are beyond compare.
When the prince saw the stunned Yang Qingyuan, he thought he had been persuaded and continued to speak.
"It is rumored that the First Emperor's secret collection also contains the peerless martial arts and immortal elixir left by Emperor Qin. These can be divided into half of Master Yang!"
In addition to power and wealth, there are also martial arts secrets that are loved by martial arts practitioners. It has been said that countless emperors and generals are pursuing immortality.
It is nonsense to say that Yang Qingyuan does not love power and wealth.
There are people who do not love power and wealth, such as Zhuge Zhongwuhou, Fan Wenzhenggong, Yu Zhongsu, and Wang Shengren, who can all reach that point.
But Yang Qingyuan does not have that level.
He is a common man and cannot escape the temptation of power and wealth, but the money must be earned by himself, and the power must be earned openly.
With the power and wealth obtained from such dirty political transactions, Yang Qingyuan held a hot hand and was speechless in the face of the sword and pen.
It is said that Blue Star China has no faith, but everyone knows that the five thousand years of history is China's faith.
Confucius grew up in the Spring and Autumn Period, and rebellious ministers and traitors were afraid.
Finish the affairs of the king and the world, and win the reputation during and after death.
Since ancient times, no one has died, leaving a loyal heart to illuminate history.
Leaving a name in history is a belief and an ideal.
Therefore, the two simplest Chinese characters "文正" will become the lifelong pursuit of countless famous ministers and ministers.
When Yang Qingyuan studied history, he also hoped that he could shine in the long river of history, even for a moment, it would be great.
This is the belief that Yang Qingyuan can reject the power of one person over ten thousand people at this moment, the wealth that can rival the country, and the wealth that is the world's richest.
Without answering the prince directly, Yang Qingyuan slowly took off the plain gold belt used for daily clothes around his waist and put it into his arms. Then he bowed deeply to the prince and said, "Your Highness, I have resigned!"
Yang Qingyuan said and walked towards the door.
When he arrived at the palace gate, Yang Qingyuan stopped. Just when the prince thought there was a turn of events, Yang Qingyuan turned around and said in a deep voice.
"Please also ask Your Highness to let Zhou Mingsheng surrender to Dali Temple before dawn today."
Watching Yang Qingyuan walk away, the prince's face was filled with uncertainty.
"Your Highness! Are you letting him go now?!"
A man who looked like a scribe came out from a distance. He was afraid that Yang Qingyuan would find out. He didn't dare to get close just now, so he could only glance at Yang Qingyuan from a distance while hiding in the crowd.
Even so, Yang Qingyuan seemed to have noticed his presence, and his several glances made him think that he had been discovered.
"If you don't let him go, what else can you do?! Could it be that we are ambushing a swordsman in this imperial city, breaking a cup as a signal, and killing him right away?!"
The prince smashed the cup in his hand to the ground, "It's the prince! Not the emperor!! Even the emperor can't possibly set up an ambush in this imperial city to attack and kill the important officials of the imperial court!"
The scribe couldn't understand Yang Qingyuan, "Is he really so determined?!"
The prince picked up the jug and drank a large mouthful of fruit wine. "He just took off the plain gold belt around his waist."
The scribe was silent. He naturally knew what Yang Qingyuan's move meant!
After a while, the scribe asked, "Then what are your highness's plans?!"
The prince looked puzzled, "We can only hand him over first! Based on Gu's understanding of Yang Qingyuan, he will not execute criminals without authorization. Even the previous Wen Jie and his like, he handed over to the court for law enforcement, so although Mingsheng will have skin and flesh It will be painful, but it won’t cost you your life!”
After listening to this, the scribe was thoughtful and said, "Your Highness wants to fight with Yang Qingyuan in the court?!"
The prince sneered and said, "Yang Qingyuan is certainly powerful, and his methods and power cannot be underestimated. It is easy for him to punish Zhou Mingsheng, but it is difficult to kill him!"
To kill Zhou Mingsheng is to fight against the "eight opinions".
Wenjie is one of the "eight opinions", and there is an iron certificate written in the elixir, which can avoid death three times.
Yang Qingyuan had no choice but to kill Wenjie through political means, labeling him as having an affair with King Zhao and intending to rebel.
But Zhou Mingsheng was different. Wen Jie was just a lonely nobleman, and because of the old affairs of the Taizu Dynasty, the Fengyang Clan was inseparable, so Yang Qingyuan was naturally able to use this method smoothly.
But Zhou Mingsheng is different. He is the prince's brother-in-law. Once the prince inherits the throne, he will be the uncle of the state and a serious relative of the emperor.
With the prince's blessing, it is almost impossible to use Wen Jie's method to deal with Zhou Mingsheng!
Yang Qingyuan wanted to rectify Zhou Mingsheng in an upright manner, so he could only fight with the prince in the court.
After a while, the prince asked, "Follow it! Did Yu Yanyi find anything?"
"Your Majesty, Sir Yu has found out the Royal Forest Army's Weihe Camp!"
"..." The prince sighed slightly, "I asked you to plan for Mingsheng, but you made the cunning plan to attack and kill Yang Qingyuan."
"It's the villain's negligence. I originally thought that the Heavenly Secret Crossbow and the Yuan family's father and son were infallible, but I didn't expect Yang Qingyuan to be able to fight against the Dongxuan Realm warriors in a short period of time. It's the villain's assessment of Yang Qingyuan's combat power that was wrong. Your Highness, please punish me!"
"That's all, it's useless to pursue the responsibility at this time. You go and send someone to clean up the tail. Yu Yanyi and Yang Qingyuan are the same people. What if he really finds out something!? Things will be in trouble!"
"yes!"
----------
On the other side, as soon as Yang Qingyuan walked out of the palace gate, Li Gang, the patrol commander of the first brigade of the Anti-Theft Department, hurriedly stepped forward and asked.
"Sir! Are you okay?"
The patrol commander of the second brigade also answered, "Yes! You haven't come out for so long, but you have made the brothers anxious!"
Yin and Yang turn the heart pot, and poisonous wine kills the heroes. Everyone knows it, but there are definitely not a few people who have read it.
Yang Qingyuan entered the East Palace alone, and his detectives were all worried. After all, he was the prince and the first candidate for the title of Ninth Five-Year Plan.
What if the negotiation between the two parties breaks down and the prince kills the hero with poisonous wine or poison, or breaks a cup as a signal and kills five hundred swordsmen and axes? !
"It makes you miss me!"
Looking at the people in front of him, Yang Qingyuan was full of apologies. For the sake of his so-called justice, it was really selfish to drag all these brothers into this case.
"Don't worry! I have reached an agreement with the prince! Zhou Mingsheng will surrender to Dali Temple before Youshi today!"
Everyone led by Li Gang was surprised. Although they knew that their master had great supernatural powers, they did not expect that he could actually take someone from the hands of the prince.
"What about us!?"
"Let's go back first! The case is almost solved! After today, brothers, please take some rest! Dali Temple has been in constant trouble these years, and brothers haven't even had a long vacation! It's my fault!"
"Sir?!" Li Gang and others had already noticed that something was wrong, but Yang Qingyuan raised his hand to stop them.
"That's right! Let the brothers go to Lao Xin's place and receive a reward of twenty taels of silver, which can be regarded as a holiday allowance for the brothers."
Then, without any plan to speak to a few more people, he took one step forward and was three feet away.
"Sir, wait for me!"
…
An hour later.
Among the soldiers, Yu Yanyi also looked ugly.
We just found some clues, but now all the clues are gone!
It was previously found that the damage rate of parts of Weiheying and Changlin Army Zhongtian crossbows was too high, so Yu Yanyi launched an investigation on this.
Changlin Army had just conducted a drill, and the person in charge of the Tianji Crossbow was a novice, so he made a mistake in the operation, causing parts to wear out.
Although this reason is not enough to convince Yu Yanyi, the Changlin Army only has three thousand troops and only a few Tianji Crossbows. Even if all the parts are dismantled, it is estimated that one or two Tianji Crossbows can be assembled.
The real big fish is still in Weihe camp.
Shendu is known as being surrounded by eight rivers. It is surrounded by rivers and has developed water transportation. Such a favorable location is one of the reasons why Taizu established his capital here.
The Weihe Battalion is the imperial army and horses responsible for guarding the waterways of these eight rivers.
The Weihe Camp not only has Tianji crossbows, but also all the medium-sized warships patrolling the river are equipped with Tianji crossbows.
Calculated based on the number of Tianji Crossbows he owned, 30% of the parts were lost, enough to build more than ten Tianji Crossbows.
Yu Yanyi had just sent someone to find the captain in charge of the ordnance and baggage of Weihe Camp. This man died when his boat capsized while patrolling the river today.
"A school lieutenant in charge of logistics went to patrol the river?! And he drowned!? Is the Royal Guards Weihe Camp a bunch of drunkards?!"
Yu Yanyi did not believe a word of this report from the Royal Forest Army! Just when he was about to investigate the reselling of confidential ordnance parts, the relevant personnel drowned? ! Is there something ghostly about this? !
"With my name card, I would like to ask General Chen, the commander of the Royal Forest Army, to come to the Yamen to have a talk!"
Yu Yanyi took out a piece of paper and started writing quickly. After he finished writing, he put it into an envelope and handed it to his subordinates along with his name.
"Go back quickly!"
"Yes! Sir!"
-----------------------
A moment of unity.
"Sir, why hasn't Zhou Mingsheng come yet!?"
Although Wang Zhenwei knew that Yang Qingyuan would not do anything that was uncertain, he was still skeptical about Zhou Mingsheng's surrender.
Their large teams from the Anti-Theft Department and the Public Information Department searched the capital for three days but failed to find Zhou Mingsheng's whereabouts. So why didn't Zhou Mingsheng continue to hide and come out? !
"Zhenwei, be calm for a moment. The reason why you can't find Zhou Mingsheng is because someone hid him. Now that the person who hid him has spoken, Zhou Mingsheng will naturally walk out obediently. Don't worry, drink tea first. ."
Although Yang Qingyuan said this, he was also a little unsure in his heart.
Human hearts are always the most fickle!
It's hard to tell if the prince changes his mind. Yang Qingyuan bets that the prince will not give up his position and a good reputation that will remain in the history of the ages.
While everyone was waiting, a policeman hurried in.
"My lord! My lord! Here we come!"
"Here we come!" Wang Zhenwei couldn't sit still anymore! He immediately stepped forward and asked.
"It's Zhou Mingsheng! Zhou Mingsheng is here!" The catcher's eyes were full of reverence at this moment. His master really had a clever plan to upgrade. He said that Zhou Mingsheng would come, and indeed Zhou Mingsheng came!
Yang Qingyuan also breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.
If Zhou Mingsheng didn't come in the end, he would be embarrassed.
"Where are the people!?"
"He has been taken to the side hall by Commander Li!" the policeman replied.
"Okay! Let him wait in the side hall for half an hour. Keep an eye on him and don't let him run away! During this period, serve tea twice and change the cup!"
"Yes!!"
Although he didn't know what Yang Qingyuan wanted to do, the detective did as he was told!
