Reborn, meet you again!
Chapter 288 Siege of the Mansion
When Jun Jiuchen arrived at the door, Prince Huai was already standing in front of the steps in a crimson-purple court robe. Behind him was Yun Zheng, dressed in a white brocade robe, sitting on a horse. Behind him were the Imperial Guards and the Imperial Guards, who were lined up in a strict formation, surrounding the Regent's Palace tightly.
Seeing this scene, the people around retreated far away, but still looked over here curiously.
After all, they were accustomed to seeing the Regent's house being confiscated in the past, but it was very rare that the Regent's mansion was surrounded today.
Seeing the situation in front of him, Jun Jiuchen's face revealed a hint of surprise and anger, but in an instant he returned to his usual coldness.
"King Huai made a big show."
"Why, are you here to copy the King's house today?"
King Huai looked at the expression on Jun Jiuchen's face, took a step forward with a smile on his face, and solemnly pulled out a bright yellow imperial edict from his sleeve.
"Your Majesty, you are too kind. I just received news recently that Empress Wei, who plotted to murder the late emperor, is not dead. Instead... she has appeared near the Regent's Palace. That is why I have come here specifically to request permission."
"Please, Lord Regent, please make way for me to search and verify the authenticity!"
Jun Jiuchen stood on the high steps and looked down at the imperial edict in King Huai's hand, his black python robe fluttering in the wind.
Su Jinyue...
Finally, I took this step.
Jun Jiuchen thought about it, and his gaze slowly moved away from the imperial edict and fell on King Huai, with a sharp glint in his eyes.
"Oh? Judging from what King Huai said, is he trying to accuse me of harboring a criminal?"
"I just don't know where the news that King Huai said came from?"
"Otherwise, if anyone says something, this Prince Regent's Palace will be searched by anyone. Wouldn't this Prince Regent's Palace become a joke?"
After hearing what Jun Jiuchen said, Yun Zheng also jumped off his horse.
"Whether there is one or not, wouldn't it be clear if the Regent lets us in and search?"
"Your Majesty has issued the decree, and the Imperial Guards are here. Could it be that the Regent intends to disobey?"
"Prince Regent, please think carefully. Disobeying the imperial order is tantamount to treason!"
Jun Jiuchen looked at the father and son in front of him and frowned.
"Treason? That's a big accusation."
Then, he seemed to think for a moment before continuing.
"But there's no need for a search. Empress Wei... is indeed in this palace."
"It's just a coincidence that I just happened to get a piece of news that the Prince of Dingbei was plotting rebellion and there was another culprit. That's why I brought her to the palace for questioning. I've already uncovered some clues about this matter."
"Once the truth is known, I will report it to Your Majesty, and then... Prince Huai will not have to intervene."
When King Huai heard that Jun Jiuchen actually admitted that Queen Wei was in his hands, his heart sank.
No wonder he executed Queen Wei so hastily.
original.
He actually kept this trick up his sleeve!
Fortunately, judging from his appearance today, Wei Zhi must not have spoken yet, otherwise he would not have this attitude now.
Come to think of it...
It was the bracelet he hadn't found yet.
It was just that the merchant's daughter noticed something was wrong with Wei Zhi's body, so she went to great lengths to find Doctor Qin.
It's strange to say, since Queen Wei's death, he had his people secretly search for the bracelet in the palace, but it was nowhere to be found.
But since this thing did not fall into their hands, it was good news for him.
As King Huai thought about it, his tone gradually became sharper.
"I'm afraid the Regent has no say in this matter."
"Empress Wei is a convicted empress. Even if there is indeed something else behind the Prince of Dingbei's treason case, it should be handed over to the Imperial Clan Court and the Dali Temple for investigation. How could the Regent harbor him privately?"
"Besides, the prince personally executed her. Now, not only is she not dead, but she has appeared alive in the Regent's Palace. What is so strange about this? We must carefully examine it!"
"How can you guarantee fairness when your Highness is involved in this?"
"The Queen Mother and His Majesty have shown mercy. Considering the Regent's contributions to the country, they will not pursue the Prince's guilt for harboring a criminal until the matter is fully clarified. Please, Regent, step aside. Otherwise... I will have no choice but to act according to the law. If I offend the Regent, I'm afraid the scene will be disastrous!"
After King Huai finished speaking, Yun Zheng immediately waved his hand behind him.
The Yulin Guards and Imperial Guards behind him immediately strung their bows and crossbows and drew their swords, and even the air was filled with a sense of tension.
But just at this moment, the sound of horse hooves was heard.
Hundreds of black-armored guards came on horseback and lined up in front of Jun Jiuchen. Each of them had a solemn expression, and their aura immediately suppressed the Yulin Guards and the Imperial Guards.
When Yun Zheng saw this scene, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.
A glimmer of light flashed in his eyes.
Jun Jiuchen is digging his own grave!
He strode to King Huai's side and looked straight at Jun Jiuchen.
"Dare to fight the Imperial Guards! It seems the Regent is determined to commit this heinous act today!"
Jun Jiuchen looked at Yun Zheng, who seemed to be eager for him to take action, and raised his lips with a hint of sarcasm, slowly turning the black jade ring on his hand.
"I have already said that I will explain this to His Majesty."
"The Crown Prince and Prince Huai are so anxious for me to hand over the person. Could it be that... they are eager to kill him and silence him?"
"After all, according to my investigation, the real culprit behind the Dingbei Prince's rebellion, the biggest suspect... is none other than your Prince Huai's Mansion!"
"Absurd!" As soon as Jun Jiuchen finished speaking, King Huai immediately shouted angrily with a righteous look on his face.
"Everyone in the world knows that I, Prince Huai, led the troops to wipe out the rebels! My son even sacrificed his own family to drive out the rebels."
"If I were an accomplice of Prince Dingbei, why would Prince Huai's Mansion do this? Even if the Regent Prince wanted to slander Prince Huai's Mansion, he should have come up with a decent excuse!"
"Such nonsense is the most ridiculous thing in the world!"
Seeing King Huai so excited, Jun Jiuchen just raised his eyebrows calmly.
"is it?"
"But Prince Huai, don't forget that the two princes of the previous emperor both died in your Prince Huai's Palace!"
"Zhou Chi's men were able to enter the palace with weapons so easily, find the two princes' whereabouts so easily, and then take the Crown Prince's Consort hostage and escape unscathed! Could it be that Prince Huai's Palace can simply cover up all of this with the word 'accident'?"
"Besides, King Huai was able to mobilize the surrounding garrisons to capture the rebels in such a short time without any imperial decree. If he said that he had not made arrangements in advance, I would never believe it."
"As for the Crown Prince's determination to sacrifice his own family for the sake of justice... If he truly had the guts to do so, your Prince Huai's Mansion should have acted decisively the moment the rebels kidnapped Miss Song. Why wait until the late Emperor passed away and expelled him from the city before taking action?"
"Whether this is a righteous act or a murder to silence someone, who can tell?"
"In my opinion... Prince Huai seems to be stepping on Prince Dingbei's corpse to pave the way for himself..."
After listening to Jun Jiuchen's words, King Huai knew that it was not appropriate to say anything more to him at this time.
After all, we are now outside the Regent's Palace, with many people watching and what they say can be scary.
He could only sigh helplessly.
"The Prince Regent insists on linking this to Prince Huai's Palace. I have nothing to say."
"However, today, it is the decree issued by His Majesty and the Queen Mother themselves, and I am acting in accordance with it. I dare not slack off in the slightest."
"Furthermore...Teacher Shangguan offended the Empress Dowager in the palace today and has been detained by the Imperial Guards...If the Regent truly intends to disobey the order, please think twice before acting..."
Jun Jiuchen's eyes darkened slightly when he heard this, as if he was really angry because Shangguan Yu was detained.
"It seems that today, this king and King Huai can no longer agree on anything."
"Since Prince Huai has repeatedly stated that he is following the wishes of Your Majesty and the Queen Mother, I will now enter the palace to see them."
Jun Jiuchen said this, with a cold glint in his eyes as he looked at the black-armored guard in front of him.
"If anyone dares to touch a single blade of grass or tree in the Regent Palace before I return..."
"Kill without mercy!"
The deafening sound immediately resounded throughout the long street outside the Regent's Palace.
"Yes! Your Majesty!"
King Huai looked at Jun Jiuchen's back as he turned and left, and was unable to do anything about him for a moment.
Jun Jiuchen holds the military power. Before Mobei takes action to contain the Mobei Army, neither he nor Su Jinyue can touch him...
Although he was somewhat worried about not being able to hand over Queen Wei, he was also secretly excited.
Because he knew that if he entered the palace today, there would be only one outcome...
