It's time!
Xianyang City.
Eighth Young Master's Mansion!
Ying Ziye held the wine glass gently in his hand, his eyes as deep as the abyss, and asked calmly: "Li Si, what kind of person do you think old Zhuo Qing is?"
"I think he may be related to those cases!"
However, Li Si did not agree with this. After careful consideration, he said, "I think this person has not participated in political affairs for many years and is devoted to studying martial arts."
"In addition, he rarely appears in public, so it is almost impossible to have any connection with the original case."
It is reasonable for Li Si to think so.
After all, people who are over a hundred years old should pursue higher martial arts cultivation and a long life.
When Ying Ziye heard this, his eyes looked deep in thought.
The next day.
The north wind howls.
The sky is clear and blue.
Ying Ziye rode a carriage to the manor where the Marquis lived outside the city.
"Old Marquis!"
Ying Ziye smiled and said, "Young man, come to greet the old Marquis and enter the city together."
"hehe!"
Old Zhuo Qinghou laughed, cupped his hands and said, "Thank you so much, Eighth Young Master."
After saying that, he went straight to the carriage.
"Walk!"
Ying Ziye said hello and went up.
Jian Jiu drove the carriage to Xianyang City.
In Xianyang City.
There was a buzz of people and people were rubbing shoulders.
The streets are busy with traffic.
There are many pavilions and vendors selling goods.
Ying Ziye sat opposite the old Marquis Zhuoqing, opened the car window, looked at the scenes in Xianyang City, and asked: "How does the old Marquis think of the current Qin Empire and the capital of Xianyang?"
Old Zhuo Qinghou nodded slightly and said with a solemn expression, "It has become more prosperous, and the people have smiles and hope on their faces."
Ying Ziye smiled and remained silent.
The carriage went straight forward without stopping.
But instead of wandering around, he stopped in front of Tingwei Mansion.
"Old Marquis, please!"
Ying Ziye got off the carriage and opened the door curtain.
"this!"
Looking at the gate of Tingwei, Lao Zhuoqinghou looked puzzled and asked: "What does the Eighth Young Master mean by this?"
However, a trace of caution arose in his heart, fearing that Ying Ziye would suddenly act viciously.
Ying Ziye didn't rush to explain, he just smiled and said, "I'm going to treat the old Marquis to a good show later."
After saying that, he leaned towards Lao Zhuo Qinghou.
Old Zhuo Qinghou looked solemn and cautious.
Ying Ziye held up Lao Zhuoqinghou's sleeve with one hand, smiled, and then stepped into Tingwei's mansion.
Seeing that Ying Ziye made no move, Lao Zhuo Qinghou did not take action and followed him.
"Eighth Young Master!"
The officials of Tingwei Mansion saluted one after another.
He escorted the two of them to the lobby.
"Please sit down!"
Ying Ziye pulled Lao Zhuo Qinghou to sit down.
The sweeping monk, Jian Jiu and others fell to one side and guarded secretly.
When Ting Wei heard the news, he also rushed over and stayed with him.
He was even more surprised when he learned the identity of Lao Zhuo Qinghou.
Waited here for about more than an hour.
During this period, marquises and nobles were invited here one after another, looking at Ying Ziye and Lao Zhuoqinghou with puzzled expressions.
"Ancestor, what's going on?"
Zhuo Qinghou asked in confusion.
"It was the Eighth Young Master who brought me here."
Old Zhuo Qinghou smiled helplessly.
Until all the marquises and nobles arrived.
After a discussion among the marquises and nobles, they found that none of them knew what was going on, so they looked at Ying Ziye and said, "I wonder what the eighth young master and we are gathering here to do?"
When Ying Ziye saw that everyone was here, he waved and ordered Tingwei: "Bring everyone up."
Tingwei cupped his hands and said: "No!"
Then he took people to the prison.
The marquises such as Marquis Guangping, Marquis Xingshui and Marquis Shengyun were brought up.
"Today, I invite you all to come here to watch and interrogate those who violate the laws of the Qin Dynasty!"
Ying Ziye said loudly, looked at Tingwei, nodded slightly, indicating that the other party could start.
The old Marquis Zhuoqing, Marquis Zhuoqing and other nobles also understood what Ying Ziye was playing.
Kill the chicken and show it to the monkey!
Tingwei shouted loudly, and first had the charges of Marquis Guangping, Marquis Xingshui, Marquis Shengyun and others read out, and then he shouted and asked: "There are witnesses and physical evidence, and your family members and close confidants have confessed. Do you know your guilt?" !”
The voice was majestic.
The officials who looked like wolves and tigers on the side looked over coldly.
Ying Ziye also smiled lightly.
Only Zhuo Qinghou and other noble marquises looked gloomy.
The downside is that they did not silence Marquis Sheng Yun and others.
"Report to your lord!"
Marquis Sheng Yun and others bowed their heads and said, "We are guilty!"
Their expressions were as usual, and they turned a blind eye to the gloomy gazes of Zhuo Qinghou and others.
"In that case, let's talk about our comrades."
Ying Ziye said calmly.
"Reply to the Eighth Young Master!"
Marquis Shengyun said respectfully: "Marquis Xingyue and Marquis Fengqing Jiang Xingsheng also participated in the underground gambling city, and colluded with Baiyue Shanyue to sell private salt, copper and iron."
"At the same time, the two of them also colluded with South Vietnam and betrayed the intelligence of the Qin Empire!"
Marquis Sheng Yun said.
The expressions of Marquis Xingyue and Marquis Fengqing Jiang Xingsheng changed.
"It's ridiculous. How could the two of us do something that harms the interests of the Qin Empire and colludes with the enemy?"
Ying Ziye glanced at it and said coldly: "Quiet, let them continue talking!"
At this time, the two Marquises of Guangping and Xingshui spoke again, saying: "Marquis Qufeng and Marquis Zhi also colluded with South Vietnam, and leaked the whereabouts of the Eighth Young Master when he patrolled the world eastward, which led to the assassination by South Vietnam!"
this!
Ying Ziye looked at Qu Fenghou and Zhihou coldly.
"Eight Young Master, we have never done such a thing, we swear!"
Qu Fenghou and Zhihou hurriedly denied it.
Just now, they noticed a cold murderous intention.
This is a direct violation of the Eighth Young Master's life. Now that it is exposed, the two of them understand the consequences.
"snort!"
Ying Ziye snorted coldly and said nothing.
He just waved his hand and asked Ting Wei to continue the interrogation.
The criminal marquises and nobles who were brought up confessed one after another.
The Marquis of Cheche, the Marquis of Guannei, the Chief of the Concubine, the Chief of the Siche and other marquises and nobles all came out one after another.
There are a total of thirty-three people, including three Marquis of Che and seven Marquises of Guannei!
Since the other marquises and nobles wanted to silence themselves and others, there was no need for Marquis Shengyun to hide it for them.
However, Zhuo Qinghou and Lao Zhuoqing Hou were never mentioned.
"Eighth Young Master, please see me clearly. I have never done anything like this!"
"We, who have been knighted for military merit, both our ancestors and ourselves have sacrificed their lives and blood for the Great Qin Empire. How can we betray the empire?"
"They just did these dirty things themselves, so they deliberately slandered us and wanted to drag us into trouble!"
The marquis and nobles who were summoned opened and closed their mouths to deny it, and the crowd was excited.
They looked horrified, if it was true that they were identified by Eighth Young Master.
Even if he is not executed by the laws of the empire, he will be silenced by killers sent by other marquises and nobles!
Especially Qu Feng Hou and Zhi Hou, they were accused of colluding with South Vietnam to reveal the whereabouts of the Eighth Young Master and murder Ying Ziye...
If it is really determined by Eight Young Masters, it may be a sheep in a tiger's mouth.
With Ying Zi's unyielding nature, they either died of illness in Tingwei Prison, or committed suicide out of guilt for the empire.
"Ah!"
Ying Ziye smiled softly and said without seeming to care: "Don't worry, I think it's unlikely. After all, you are all people who have shed your blood for the Great Qin Empire."
"These matters still need to be investigated carefully, and we cannot just rely on the words of Marquis Sheng Yun and others."
The marquises and nobles who were called out breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this and wiped the sweat from their foreheads.
Old Zhuo Qinghou's expression remained as usual, but he was watching Ying Ziye's performance with interest.
Zhuo Qinghou's eyes were deep and he didn't understand why Ying Ziye did this.
The other marquises and nobles were also puzzled.
Ying Ziye waved and ordered: "Take Marquis Sheng Yun and the others down!"
"promise!"
The officials, officials and jailers bowed their hands and took Sheng Yunhou and other marquises away.
As for the noble Marquis who was implicated.
Ying Ziye didn't say anything more, as if the matter was over, he cupped his hands towards the old Marquis Zhuoqing, and said with a warm smile: "Thank you, the old Marquis and all the noble lords and nobles for coming to watch, you can leave now. "
Seeing that the Eighth Young Master really had no intention of attacking them rashly, the faces of all the marquis and nobles became more and more confused.
