Chapter 461 Dead without testimony
By then, things will be completely out of control!
How lively Beiyuan is today, with so many princes and nobles, so many court ministers, and so many female family members, as well as accompanying maids, entourages, palace maids, eunuchs, and guards patrolling and guarding. This matter Once out of control, no one can cover up.
When the time comes, Zhao Liya, he, and Li Guogong's mansion will definitely be pushed to the forefront.
The Mi family was originally very dissatisfied with their Duke's Mansion and the Zhao family. At this moment, regardless of whether the real culprit is his wife or not, the Mi family and Concubine Mi Gui will never let her daughter-in-law be let go in grief and resentment. Take the opportunity to not let go.
Today, dragons and snakes are mixed and there are many people. It is so difficult to find the real culprit and find convincing evidence.
Fortunately, fortunately.
Zhou Hansheng exhaled slowly, and ordered lightly: "Find something to cover him, and everything else on the scene is not allowed to move. You two lead people to guard the door, lock the door of this hall, remember , No one is allowed to enter, just say that it is my order, whoever dares to disobey, let him go to me. I will immediately ask the emperor for an order, and no one is allowed to come near this place."
"Yes, my son."
Zhou Hansheng made arrangements, so he hurried to find the emperor.
At this time, the emperor and a group of ministers were watching the dragon boat race on the high royal platform, talking and laughing with great interest.
The relationship between Zhou Hansheng and the emperor has always been very good, better than all the ministers and clan princes thought. After all, before the emperor succeeded to the throne, many things Zhou Hansheng did for him were invisible. Their cousins knew each other. Apart from knowing it well, and the people who are extremely close to him know it, others naturally have no way of knowing it.
Zhou Hansheng has never been refused to see the emperor, and it is the same this time.
It’s just that this time, seeing the relaxed and happy smile on the emperor’s face, and hearing him smile and ask what’s going on, Zhou Hansheng couldn’t bear to speak.
But Zhou Hansheng knew better that this matter cannot be concealed, so it must be said earlier. Otherwise, if it is too late, there will be changes, and all previous efforts will be wasted.
Even if this is not the case, it is not the way to be a minister after all.
"Your Majesty, if you have anything to do with me, please report to the Emperor alone."
Zhou Hansheng's words aroused the attention of all the royal family members and important ministers, and the elders who have been high and important for many years frowned, thinking that he was a little arrogant.
Is there anything that others cannot hear?
Li Guogong and Zhao Xiang agreed in unanimous agreement, "Knock!" They knew Zhou Hansheng too well. If something urgent and urgent hadn't happened, it was absolutely impossible for him to come here at this time to spoil the emperor's interest. It's a separate report, generally speaking, it's not a good thing
So, what could be the big deal? The two were pondering over it, unable to figure it out, and couldn't think of a clue.
The emperor trusted and valued Zhou Hansheng very much, and he didn't blame him when he saw this. Instead, he nodded with a smile and said yes, and got up and summoned Zhou Hansheng to go with him to Dongci.
After the two of them entered, the little **** who was serving him also hurriedly bowed and retreated, while the door **** stood guard outside.
"Ah Sheng, you—what are you doing!"
The emperor didn't say a word, when he saw Zhou Hansheng kneeling down, he was startled, and the smile on his thin face disappeared.
Zhou Hansheng smiled wryly: "Your Majesty, the humble minister first apologized to the emperor. This happened because the humble minister neglected his duty and did not take good precautions, which broke the emperor's mood."
"Every sentence is true." Zhou Hansheng smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty, even though the couple of humble ministers don't get along well with the Mi family, they don't have any deep hatred. It's not so fatal! Besides, even if there is something, we will definitely It wouldn’t be possible to do it today, in a place like this! If Aya wasn’t clever, she would have been blocked in the Lihua Pavilion and captured a ‘conclusive evidence’! The person behind the scheme is really hateful!”
The emperor nodded slightly: "I can trust you and your wife." He bent down and held Zhou Hansheng's arm with his own hands: "Quickly get up and talk."
He still didn't say a word, even if the two of them conspired to murder a young master of the Mi family, so what? That must be the fault of the young master of the Mi family. Or, it was pure accident.
But no matter what, it was a trivial matter in his eyes.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
The emperor said again: "Those two aunts of yours, I'm afraid they know?"
"Wei Chen has no evidence!"
That is to know for sure. Yes, otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence!
The emperor sighed, sat down again, and ordered Zhou Hansheng to sit down again, "This matter is a bit tricky. Human life is at stake, and it cannot be covered. Look, what reason should be used to make this matter public?"
Naturally, this matter cannot have the slightest relationship with the government of Liguo.
So, even if they knew that it was the second and third bedrooms of the Duke of Li's mansion, it was actually impossible for them to do anything openly!
Because there will always be people who think that Liguogong’s mansion is integrated with the outside world. Is there any difference between their actions with the second bedroom and the third bedroom? No!
There is no way to explain this kind of thing.
Then you can only pinch your nose to deal with the aftermath for them, and then find it from other places to make up for it.
But right now, this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that the eldest prince must not know about this matter.
As soon as Zhou Hansheng heard what the emperor said, he knew that the monarch and his subjects had all wanted to go to one place.
When the first prince knows the truth of this kind of thing, he will inevitably feel uncomfortable.
Concubine Mi Gui will even make troubles.
The eldest prince will probably trust Zhao Liya and Zhou Hansheng, but at the same time, he will also feel guilty towards Concubine Mi and the Mi family, and this kind of guilt is exactly what the emperor and Zhou Hansheng do not want to see.
Zhou Hansheng gritted his teeth, and said in a deep voice: "We can only keep this matter a secret, from the First Prince and Concubine Mi Gui, and don't tell anyone about it. After a while, I invited Ya'er to the Lihua Pavilion, saying that I was tired." Rest there, no one is allowed to disturb. After everyone has left, after the grand meeting is over, I will deal with him again, so that no one will notice."
That is to say, from now on, the young master of the Mi family will no longer exist in the world, but no one will know that he is dead, they will only regard him as missing.
Anyway, there is no proof of death.
The emperor thought about it, and it was indeed the only way to do it. It could only be concealed. This is the safest way so far.
"Where is Mrs. Shizi."
Zhou Hansheng smiled wryly to himself, he didn't know whether his wife would be afraid of him, and he still felt sorry for her. But what can be done? From the looks of it right now, that's the only way to go!
