Chapter 306 (2/2)

After walking out of the prison of the interior government, I didn't see a figure. It must be that Lu Xiaoyi has made very safe arrangements.

It was dark outside. After repeatedly confirming the surrounding situation, Lu Xiaoyi led Zhang Zhou to leave quickly, turned left and turned right into a small alley.

In addition to knowing that the prison of the interior government is built in the Forbidden City and close to the inner palace, Zhang Zhou knows nothing about the specific terrain layout. If he is not sure that the other party is taking him to see someone, Zhang Zhou will really worry about whether Lu Xiaoyi deliberately set up a situation and plans to find a quiet corner where he has few tracks, and then find a group of people to revenge himself!

As for who would meet him, Zhang Zhou thought that nine times out of ten it would be emperor Zhao Qianyuan. Is it difficult to catch yourself in prison? It's just a means to hide people's eyes and ears. The purpose is to see yourself unconsciously? It's fun!

Doubt only increases!

After walking through the maze like alley, he walked into a small courtyard. There were several rooms in the courtyard, one of which was still lit. Lu Xiaoyi came forward and gently buckled the door ring and said.

”Here comes the man!”

It responded with a few simple words, ”let him in”.

Lu Xiaoyi gave Zhang Zhou a look. Zhang Zhou understood and pushed the door in.

The candles in the house are bright, everything can be seen clearly, and the layout inside is very simple. At a quick glance, you can see the whole picture, a chair, a table, a pile of books, envelopes and other things on the table, as well as a teapot and a teacup.

There was a man sitting in the chair. It was Zhao Qianyuan, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty. Zhang Zhou couldn't tell whether he was excited or happy. He just felt wronged and his nose was sour, so he quickly knelt down.

”Your Majesty, I wish your majesty good health!”

But after waiting for a long time, I didn't see Zhao Qianyuan speak, and I didn't dare to look up. The joy turned into uneasiness. The little sense of ”adaptation” that had been hard established in front of Zhao Qianyuan had dissipated at this time, and there was a sense of trembling. But Zhao Qianyuan seemed to forget his existence. The silent atmosphere made Zhang Zhou almost feel a sense of collapse.

”Zhang Zhou!” Zhao Qianyuan finally broke the silence and said suddenly.

Zhang Zhou quickly answered.

”I'm here!”

”Is it true about Princess Linlang?”

At the moment, Zhang Zhou had the idea that he didn't want to deceive each other. He fell on the ground and said nothing!

”If you don't speak, you admit it, right?”

”I'm guilty!”

”Do you know you're guilty?”

”Your Majesty, this is not related to your royal highness, but the minister has acted lightly and has brought the groundless talk to his highness. If your majesty wants to punish him, he will be punished for his crimes.”

”Since you say you deserve what you deserve, how can you be convinced that punishment is just and fair?”

The joint trial of the three officials has convicted him of death, but Zhao Qianyuan asked him so. Obviously, he didn't intend to kill him.

”Everything is decided by your majesty. Your Majesty's decision is the greatest justice, and you are absolutely convinced!”

”Zhang Zhou, your ability to flatter the Lord is getting stronger and stronger!”

”I'm loyal to your majesty. Every sentence is the truth from the bottom of my heart. It's definitely not flattering...”

”Ha ha!” Zhao Qianyuan smiled. Zhang Zhou's heart beat faster because the laughter was very cold.

”Loyal? Loyal? What a loyal!” at the same time, Zhao Qianyuan stood up angrily as he patted the table.

”Zhang Zhou, do you think I'm a blind man, but a blind man?”

Zhang Zhou touched the bottom of his forehead and was shocked. He felt Zhao Qianyuan's anger, perhaps not just because of Princess Linlang!

”Although I have violated the princess's reputation, I can...”

”That's not what I mean!”

”Then...”

Zhang Zhou's thoughts are flying in his mind. He filters his broken things one by one. There must be something that makes Zhao Qianyuan feel unhappy, but he can't be sure which one it is! For a time, I was flustered and speechless!

”What? Flustered? Dare not speak!”

”I'm guilty, but I've never betrayed Datang, let alone lost to your majesty...”

”If you violate the law of the Tang Dynasty, don't you harm the Empire? Don't you live up to my expectations?”

Zhang Zhou has violated many of the forbidden laws of the Tang Dynasty. He doesn't know which one he's talking about. He just lies there and doesn't dare to talk!

Seeing that Zhang Zhou didn't speak, Zhao Qianyuan was even more angry. He picked up all the secret letters stacked on the case and threw them on Zhang Zhou.

”Take a good look yourself. Which one of these wrongs you!”

Zhang Zhou quickly picked up the secret letters scattered on the ground and opened them one by one to watch the content!

”... he collected tens of thousands of refugees and privately owned them. He drilled into Longzhou without authorization and sold grain and grass to the border army...”

”... Qinzhou built a powerful city in violation of the system, with an evil plot...”

”... the caravan is powerful. It is said to be the people and acted as the army...”

”... having an affair with the rich people in Nanping Prefecture is suspected of increasing chaos in the Northwest...”

”... bribe many state officials and expand commercial monopoly...”

”... Hezhou has become a private land, and the court has no choice...”

”... destroy the golden sword given by the emperor without reporting, and despise the Emperor...”

”... induce Princess Linlang to take a stake in Kyushu business to expand her power and belittle the majesty of the royal family...”

……

More than a dozen charges, large and small, made Zhang Zhou sweat. Among the key charges, he couldn't find one that could be reasonably justified and pushed away!

”I give you trust and convenience, but you are greedy and insatiable. Do you really regard me as a deaf and blind blind king? Do you think you can hide what you have done? Or do you think you can do whatever you want with the favor of the crown prince and queen? I won't tell you about those little dirty things. Rivers and regions can't be poured into; they belong to the people , be an army! You have nearly 200000 businesses in Kyushu. Can you tell me what you want to do? What's the purpose of building a xiongcheng in Qinzhou without the permission of the imperial court? What's your intention? Do you want to follow the Sima family and establish a state within the state? ”

Zhang Zhou always thought he was doing well and hiding well. He didn't expect Zhao Qianyuan to master so much. He was still rattling. Zhang Zhou thought he was safe, but he didn't know that * had been exposed long ago!

In particular, Zhao Qianyuan's last sentence ”the country within the country” is enough to pile up his series of charges and nail a big nail of ”unforgivable capital crimes”!

”Your Majesty, I'm young and ignorant. I did a lot of wrong things that I don't know the scale, but I swear to God, I really didn't apologize to Datang, and I didn't have any idea of disobeying your majesty. Please use your Majesty's example...”
