Empress, you don't want to be thrown into limbo by your father, do you?

Chapter 52 Detain Mrs. Xiao's good life, and I have to interrogate her alone

【Ding!The host successfully took over the internal affairs department, rewarding 10000 system points]

【Ding!The host obtains the 'Order of the Son of Heaven' and rewards 30000 system points]

【Ding!The imperial concubine is shaken, reward 50000 system points]

One after another system rewards rang in his ears, and Li Changshou was no stranger to it.

On the contrary, the noble concubine was frightened by him half-truths and half-fakes, and the effect was remarkable, but the relationship between the two remained at 89 points, and a special opportunity was obviously needed to get closer.

Li Changshou looked at the [Love Gu Pill] in the system warehouse, wondering if he should find a chance to trick the imperial concubine into eating it?

With the blessing of [Love Gu Pill], the imperial concubine should gradually shift her heart towards him.

Of course that's something to do later.

Now, he is busy starting to raise the power of life and death bestowed by the emperor, holding Shang Fang's sword in his hand, and attacking those civil and military officials in the court!

Bear the brunt!

The first thing he will do!

Go to Xiao Mansion to raid the house!
"Let the people from the Imperial City Division go to the Xiao Mansion now and take everyone down!"

As soon as Li Changshou came out of the palace, he immediately gave the order. Gu Fan had been waiting for a long time, and he also knew that there would be a bloody storm when he returned to the capital, so the people from the Imperial City Division had already prepared to go.

"Your Highness, I have arranged for people to surround the Xiao residence, no one can leave."

Gu Fan is a smart man, Xiao Pang's mutiny and rebellion, in all dynasties and dynasties, is the death penalty for implicating the nine clans!

If he can make this step, he will be benevolent if he fails. Obviously, Xiao Pang failed in the mutiny and ended up decapitated, and all the people related to him will be implicated without accident.

If it is light, it will be dispatched to Ninggu Pagoda, and if it is serious, it will be launched at the Meridian Gate and beheaded!

The well-informed people in the capital had already got the news, so when the people of the Imperial City Division headed towards Xiao's mansion in mighty way, they could see many people pointing and pointing.

Not to mention those court ministers, even ordinary people in the capital have heard the rumors and are talking about it.

Came to the gate of Xiao Mansion.

Sure enough, the once crowded Xiao Mansion has now fallen into a cloudy and gloomy atmosphere.

People from the Imperial City Division can be seen everywhere outside, and when they saw Li Changshou coming, someone came up to greet him.

"Your Highness, Deputy Envoy!"

Rebellion is a capital crime, not to mention any important minister who came forward to intercede for all the women, children, old and young in Xiao's house, those people can't wait to get rid of the relationship with Xiao's house immediately, for fear that being implicated will lead to bad luck for their whole family.

"Everyone is in there?"

"Return to Your Highness, the humble staff and others have confirmed with the city defense that the women and children of Xiao's family have not escaped from the capital, and are now being detained in the mansion to wait for His Highness to deal with them!"

Li Changshou was not surprised by this result. Xiao Pang's mutiny and rebellion was a secret among secrets. In order to ensure safety, he couldn't even tell his bedside people, let alone other servants in the house?
So at this moment in the Xiao Mansion, many people are still at a loss and don't know what happened.

"You, and you follow the solitary go in to arrest people, and the others stay outside to guard, if anyone escapes over the wall without authorization, he will be shot and killed!"

With a big wave of his hand, Li Changshou led dozens of Imperial City Department masters directly into the Xiao Mansion.

Compared with the last time I came here, how could the Xiao Mansion be so domineering?

The Imperial City Division has obviously already started to act in advance, and the entire Xiao Mansion has about [-] people, and they have all been gathered in the front yard at this moment.

As soon as you enter, you can see that the leader is Xiao Pang's wife, Fang Rou, the daughter of the Fang family in the south of the Yangtze River.

"You are bold! My concubine's husband is a third-rank official of the imperial court. He is the commander of the imperial army and is deeply trusted by His Majesty. Who gave you the courage to come to our Xiao residence to act wildly!"

It is said that women's views are beyond stupid, but of course they still win.

It's a pity that Mrs. Xiao Pang has been pampered and pampered for too long, so she can't tell the situation clearly.

When things came to an end, he still acted like he was bossing around.

The surrounding masters of the Imperial City Department held back their anger. Even if they were committed by the imperial court, they did not dare to beat and scold them at will. Seeing that Li Changshou finally arrived, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

"Your Highness, this criminal woman has been clamoring to see His Highness, do you see?"

Li Changshou raised his hand when he heard the words, and then walked in front of Fang Rou. Although it was not the first time we met each other, and he had met the other party a few times and didn't know it was him, but seeing him face to face at this moment still gave him a strange feeling .

Let's say that Fang Rou looks like a noble concubine, but in fact, her appearance and facial features are only three to four similar, and people who are not familiar with her will not think of her as a noble concubine.

But if you don't like it, there are some similarities in some aspects.

"Sinful woman Fang Rou, your husband Xiao Pang rebelled and plotted against His Majesty, today Gu ordered the entire Xiao Mansion to be confiscated. Anyone who resists will be killed on the spot!"

Li Changshou's voice resounded throughout the Xiao Mansion like a bell, and everyone in the Xiao Mansion was pale and dejected.

Fang Rou couldn't believe it, and shook her head again and again, "No, it's impossible! You're lying! How could a concubine husband rebel? It's impossible!"

"Impossible? Mrs. Xiao thinks that Gu would joke about such a thing? Xiao Pang dared to rebel, and according to the law, he should be imprisoned by the nine clans!"

Seeing the glamorous woman's face pale and trembling with fright, the corners of Li Changshou's mouth slightly raised, Bi stepped forward to stare at her eyes, and said the words that made her tremble the most, "Now it's not just the Xiao manor, but Even Madam, your natal family, the Jiangnan Fang Clan, will be ransacked and exterminated according to the law!"

What is Zhulian Jiuzu?

In the feudal dynasty, this was the most serious punishment, and all entanglements and even friendships would be liquidated.

After all, treason is a felony, and all dynasties will not forgive it lightly.

"no, I can not……"

Over the years, Fang Rou has never experienced any twists and turns.

When she was young, she was the daughter of the Fang family in the south of the Yangtze River. She was born with a golden spoon in her mouth. She wanted wind and rain, and later married Xiao Pang, with the help of her natal family, which made Xiao Pang rise to the top.

Have you ever seen such a scene?
"Put everyone in the Sitian Prison of the Imperial City!"

There is no need for Li Changshou to order, the people from the Imperial City Department have already started to attack. Except for some old women and maidservants in Xiao's mansion, the rest are from the Forbidden Army camp. But now that they have learned that Xiao Pang died in a mutiny, they have no idea of ​​​​resisting. .

They were all taken away, and only Fang Rou was left in the end. Gu Fan hesitated slightly and signaled not to move for the time being, but to wait for Li Changshou's intention.

"Watch what Gu does, and take it with you!"

Only then did the people from the Imperial City Department come forward to escort Fang Rou back, but Fang Rou reacted abruptly, grabbed Li Changshou's hand, knelt down and begged, "Your Highness, Your Highness! I really don't know anything I don’t know! I’ve been wronged!”

Being imprisoned in the Sitian Prison of the Imperial City?

Is there still life in that kind of place?

Fang Rou was not stupid, and the crying Lihua begged with rain, "Xiao Pang's rebellion, I don't know the truth about my concubine's status, I hope Your Highness will be kind, Your Highness will be kind!"

"Oh? Mrs. Xiao doesn't know anything? Was Xiao Pang kept in the dark?"

Li Changshou looked down at this glamorous woman who was somewhat similar to his mother and concubine, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, but his tone was extremely cold.

The law is not merciful, but it does not mean that it cannot be manipulated by humans.

Don't forget that this time Emperor Qianming entrusted him with full power to deal with, the subtext was to tell him that how to deal with it and how many people to kill were all up to him to decide.

"Yes! Yes! I don't know anything about it. It's Xiao Pang. It's him who has objections and wants to murder His Majesty. I really don't know anything about it!"

Fang Rou was weeping and weeping with pear blossoms and rain, her makeup was a little melted, making her look even more pitiful.

Looking at her, Li Changshou sneered, "So Mrs. Xiao should be innocent?"

"Yes, yes! Your Highness has learned! Even if I am guilty, I am not guilty of death!"

Li Changshou reached out and raised Fang Rou's chin, looking into those misty eyes, secretly thinking that Xiao Pang, a fool who obviously has a good woman by his side, is obsessed with treason and obsessed with the imperial concubine who is impossible to get.

Instead, it was wasted in vain, and now Fang Rou has to suffer together. Thinking of this, the corner of his mouth slightly raised, "It's a pity, Your Majesty, don't listen to these explanations. I have already ordered Gu Che to investigate this case and confiscate all party members and relatives." Dispose of all the people!"

"Your Highness, spare your life! Your Highness, spare your life!"

Fang Rou is a smart woman. Li Changshou deliberately revealed a hint of information in his words, and she was immediately caught by her, and a glimmer of hope for survival arose.

"Excuse me? How can Mrs. Xiao prove that she has nothing to do with this treason? You are Xiao Pang's wife, and treason is a death penalty according to the law. You will be implicated in the nine clans, including you and your natal family!"

How to prove it?

Isn't this embarrassing?
People around the Imperial City Department couldn't help showing puzzled expressions. There have been people who have rebelled in the past dynasties, who cares whether you are innocent or not.

As long as you are among the nine clans, you will die!

However, rules are dead, but people are alive.

Most of the people in the Imperial City Department have been subdued by Li Changshou, especially those who are staying at this moment. They have all been observed and trained by Li Changshou, and their loyalty can be guaranteed.

"Your Highness, this matter..."

Gu Fan stepped forward and lowered his voice. He knew the stakes, and at the same time, he saw that Li Changshou was deliberately seducing Fang Rou. For a while, he couldn't figure out what Li Changshou was thinking.

"Lonely knows what's in his heart."

Li Changshou returned a reassuring look, and Gu Fan didn't say much anymore.

Moreover, Xiao Pang's rebellion implicates the nine clans, and if he really wants to investigate thoroughly, including Gu Fan himself and his mother, they can't escape, and Li Changshou is still helping to hide this secret.

Fang Rou was flustered and nervous when she heard this, and she couldn't find any reason for a while. How could she prove her innocence?
No idea!

"Take Mrs. Xiao back and put her in solitary confinement, I will interrogate myself!"

Li Changshou ordered coldly, Gu Fan signaled the people from the Imperial City Department to come forward, but he did not look fierce, but took Fang Rou away very politely, and they didn't care what was tricky in it, in short, they would follow whoever gave food who.

And when Li Changshou came back this time, he was rewarded wildly in the Imperial City Department. Who would sacrifice his life not for the broken silver?

"Think carefully, and hope that Madam can give a reasonable explanation when Gu is interrogated."

Fang Rou was not stupid, she understood that Li Changshou gave her a chance, and after showing gratitude, she was directly invited away by the Secretary of the Imperial City.

Yes, please go, and take it away in Li Changshou's carriage. People who don't know it will not believe that this is a crime committed by the imperial court. It looks more like the side concubine of the Shou Palace.

"Go to the secret room!"

Now that the Xiao Mansion is in his hands, all the valuable antiques and famous paintings, including gold, silver and jewelry, have been cleaned up one by one by the people of the Imperial City Department, and they are being counted over there.

On the side of the secret room, Li Changshou took a look, then waved for everyone to leave, leaving Gu Fan alone.

"Your Highness?"

"Do you not understand why Gu wants to protect Fang Rou?"

Li Changshou knew that Gu Fan had doubts in his mind, so he screened the others away and asked him alone in the secret room.

Gu Fan didn't hide it, "I do have doubts about my humble position. If His Majesty knows it, it may be bad for His Majesty."

"Father, apart from asking Gu Che to investigate the case of Xiao Pang's treason, he has another important task to explain, which is even more serious than the case of Xiao Pang's rebellion!"

Li Changshou is half-true and half-false, he is a professional at bluffing people, "And this matter is only mentioned to you for the time being. As for this Fang Rou, it is not a pity that she is not dead, but she is still alive, but there is another thing that she told her father. Things matter."

Well, it's all his bragging, but does anyone dare to go to Emperor Qianming to prove it?
He just wanted to save Fang Rou's life, so he had to find a reason, right?
He, Li Changshou, was a nostalgic person, so Fang Rou ordered him to keep it. As for the explanation to the outside world, he had already thought of an excuse.

Gu Fan bowed immediately when he heard the words, "It's a humble job and ignorance, and it doesn't understand His Highness's good intentions."

What's the use of Fang Rou?Gu Fan really didn't know, but he did agree with Li Changshou's statement that it didn't matter whether Fang Rou died or not, the chief culprit, Xiao Pang, had already been punished. .

"This matter is confidential and must not be revealed!"

Li Changshou exhorted him very seriously, then turned and left the secret room. The things in it had already been emptied by the Imperial City Secretary.

Going outside and looking at the things counted in the yard, let alone Xiao Pang's accumulated wealth of more than ten thousand over the years?
All kinds of famous paintings and antiques, just a dozen boxes of silver ingots, gold nuggets, etc. are dazzling.

"Three years to clear the magistrate, one hundred thousand snowflake silver, this Xiao Pang really understands the way of being an official."
