Chapter 411 King Qi’s People
"Your Highness Prince Yan, can you...really protect Tang Hao?"
After a long time, Tang Ting's words trembled in the dark room.
Chen Ji lowered his eyes and looked over, seeing that his bloated body was shaking constantly and his expression gradually changed from anger to joy, he knew that what he wanted to know would soon be told by Tang Ting.
“The premise of not allowing misfortune to reach children is that benefits will not reach them.
Tang Hao has been neglected since he was young, and lived a life worse than that of a servant. He was able to reach the position of commander-in-chief of the military department because of his own efforts. Your power and wealth have not benefited him at all.
Now, Tang Hao has lost his official position and been thrown into prison because of the Tang family. If he even loses his life, it would be too unfair."
After Chen Ji finished speaking, Tang Ting's eyes flashed.
If Prince Yan brought these words to the emperor, perhaps Tang Hao's life could really be saved.
Rather than taking those evidence underground, it is better to hand it over to King Yan...
As a result, Chen Ji obtained the evidence collected by the former Minister of Personnel from the three chief judges who were trying him.
Among them, the part about Censor Zhao and Lord Sun has a lot of overlap with the information collected by Chen Ji's spy dark web, so it can be believed for the time being.
The remaining part that is inconsistent and the part that has not been detected by Chen Ji's intelligence dark web need to be identified separately.
What surprised Chen Ji was Zhu Jingxing, because Tang Ting told him that Zhu Jingxing was openly close to the aristocratic family and secretly worked for the emperor, but his deepest identity was a disciple of King Qi!
Chen Ji frowned slightly. If this news was true, Zhu Jingxing might also be involved with the Jiang family.
……
Xiaoyunlou is located in the western part of Kyoto's outer city. It has a simple exterior but elegant interior and a wide variety of dishes, so many customers come here every day.
This is a three-story restaurant. The first floor has casual seating, the second floor has elegant seats, and the third floor is said to be for accommodation, but in fact it is a place for some drunk guests to rest. Not many people actually come here to stay the night, because there is an inn opposite Xiaoyun Tower with reasonable prices, so most people go there to spend the night.
At this moment in Xiaoyun Building, no one knew what was happening, whether on the bustling first floor or the relatively quiet second floor. In the room at the end of the corridor on the third floor, a middle-aged man was lying on the ground, covering his neck with a grim expression.
Large amounts of blood flowed out from between his fingers. His cut throat made it impossible for him to shout for help, and he could only die in the northwest.
Right next to the middle-aged man, stood two men with extremely ordinary looks, one wearing gray and the other wearing black.
The man in gray was carefully stuffing some things like letters and account books into his arms, then he lowered his eyes and waited quietly for the middle-aged man on the ground to die.
The man in black wiped the bloody dagger on the middle-aged man, stood up and urged:
"Is it necessary to be so cautious? He is definitely dead. We still have to rush to Dongcheng District to kill the mother and son. Let's not waste time here."
As the middle-aged man was talking, he gradually fell silent. Seeing this, the man in gray nodded, and together with the man in black, he left Xiaoyun Tower and quickly headed towards Dongcheng District.
Because they were walking too fast, they did not see a fragile woman holding a boy holding a rattle, talking and laughing as they walked into the Ping'an Inn opposite the Xiaoyun Tower.
Not long after, Wei Lin brought his men to Ping'an Inn and quietly took the mother and son away.
Also taken away was a bag containing a thick account book and several old letters.
