Chapter 128 (1/2)

Lin Jing did not dare to speak any more. Zhao Shiqian touched the back neck of the Minister of rites and sighed, ”I have always valued you very much. You let me down.”

The Minister of rites was lying on the ground trembling. It doesn't matter if he can save the life of his family. When he did that, he thought that there would be such a day, but he didn't expect that it would be so soon.

Zhou Leping looked at all this coldly, his heart could not help but sigh. If he put his head under the chopper, he was doomed to have the day when he lost his head.

Lin Jing still plans to fight to the end. He is a big tree in the state of Zhao. He has to be uprooted if he wants to get rid of him. However, how many people are still entangled with these branches and leaves? Zhao Shiqian feels numb when he thinks about it.

He had been waiting for this day for four years, but when the day came, the calm wind and clouds came up to the bright side, and he was still a little afraid.

Emperor Rui's concubine was sent to the palace to identify Tang Zhaoyin. Zhao and Deng came back after searching Lin's house. Tang Zhaoyin couldn't get away. Qian Qian pointed at him and still gritted his teeth.

However, as an old fox like Lin Jing, important things like account book evidence will not be found so easily by Zhao Deng. Zhao Deng is three feet away from digging the ground. Inside and outside, the mouse hole has been turned over, but he has not found any evidence about this matter.

Lin Jing put down his heart slightly and looked at Zhao Shiqian with a kind of questioning eyes. ”In fact, the old minister knew that the emperor was afraid of him for a long time. This is just a reason. In order to protect his family's life, the Minister of rites had no choice but to follow the emperor's will. Whether he was wronged or not, the emperor knows best.”

Zhao Shiqian stood up and returned to the throne step by step, brushing his robes. He was a little frustrated. ”Of course, I know it in my heart, but it's a matter of great importance. I have to give an account to the courtiers. I can't just let it go. Come on, first put the Minister of rites, the abbot, and a group of people involved in the case in the prison!”

This is the first time that Zhao Shiqian talks so lightly, but Lin Jing feels that he has a lot of weight. Maybe he shouldn't underestimate Zhao Shiqian at the beginning. When the late emperor died, the eunuch tried to seize power. At that time, he killed a way of life with his own strength. No matter how incompetent he was, he was full of anger in his heart. To put it mildly, he endured humiliation.

He despised not only Zhao Shiqian but also Zhou Leping.

As a minister of rites, Zhou Leqi was one of the main examiners. Naturally, he was also one of the people involved in the case. In order to show fairness, Zhou Leqi was also put into the prison together.

Zhou Leqi is not in good health. The place like Tianlong is dark and humid. After a few days, he may go back ill as soon as he gets better. But business is business. Now he can only collect Lin Jing's criminal evidence.

Although Lin Jing has been sent to the prison, his loyal subordinates have not given up, and he is not idle. Of course, Zhou Leping can't do whatever he likes outside.
