Chapter 444: Searching for Evidence

Meng Xuanyu used his connections and power to start with Wang Baobao's case and began to thoroughly investigate the criminal evidence related to Wang Zhaoyuan and his son over the years.

Although he is only a prince and has no actual official positions, he has placed many secret agents and shadow guards both inside and outside Shu over the years, and once they are put into operation, the efficiency is terrifying.

The prince is a stupid person, and the emperor of Shu has not been involved in political affairs for a long time. Therefore, the intelligence system of Shu is controlled by Meng Xuanyu.

However, in the past, he used it for external purposes, sending people to search for intelligence in Song, Tang, Northwest, Jingchu and other places. He knew the domestic situation well and his father would not allow the court to fight. Every time he suppressed many

As a result, in the past twenty or thirty years, there has been a lot of turmoil in the country, but there has not been too fierce party struggle.

This time, Meng Xuanyu completely followed Su Chen's suggestion and took the opportunity to send people to investigate the Wang family and his son, in order to convict Wang Zhaoyuan of a crime so as to seize the position of commander of the marching camp in the north.

Even if the emperor does not punish him for his serious crimes, Meng Xuanyu will still provoke a conflict with Wang Zhaoyuan when the time comes. When the time comes, he will capture Wang Zhaoyuan and save the security of Shu's border areas.

This was related to the lives of tens of thousands of men in Jianmen, as well as the life and death of the Shu Kingdom. He had to be cautious!

In two days, a lot of information and cases about Wang Zhaoyuan and his son were collected and sorted out.

At the same time, Mu Li and his daughter were also sent to the second prince's residence for protection.

"Brother Chen, we have indeed gained a lot. This Wang Zhaoyuan has been in charge of the Central Committee for nearly ten years. He has openly collected bribes and sold his official positions, which has led to corruption in the officialdom. For this kind of crime alone, he can be sentenced to prison. Even if his father favors him,

, at least we have to reduce officials to serve the people. In addition, the Wang family is ruthless about human life and lynching people. There are also some ironclad cases. The Wang family can be raided, and some servants and generals can be imprisoned."

As soon as Meng Xuanyu met, he told Su Chen everything.

Su Chen asked tentatively: "With all this evidence, is Your Highness confident of bringing Wang Zhaojun down?"

Meng Xuanyu was quite confident: "It's not a big problem!"

Su Chen raised some doubts: "But has His Highness ever thought that once the discussion starts in the court and Wang Zhaoyuan hears the news, there may be a danger of leading troops to surrender to the enemy."

"What do you mean?" Meng Xuanyu asked.

Su Chen smiled slightly and made some suggestions: "I will report to His Majesty alone, and then apply for the Shangfang Sword. I can take my personal guards directly to Beida Camp, secretly arrest Wang Zhaoyuan, and take over the post of commander-in-chief."

Meng Xuanyu's eyes lit up, a smile appeared, and he nodded: "This is a good idea. Capture him in the army, take him by surprise, and take the opportunity to control the northern army."

Su Chen reminded again: "Your Highness, it is best to bring two trusted ministers to lobby the Emperor of Shu together. They can also testify and block the debate in the temple!"

Meng Xuanyu glanced at him, secretly admiring Su Chen's wisdom and caution, and said: "I already understand that I will be anxious to Zhongshu Ling and Taifu to explain the key points and reach a consensus, and then they will enter the palace together to expose Wang Zhaoyuan's secrets."

Sin."

Su Chen smiled slightly and thought to himself that the Shu Kingdom had enough troops, a full treasury, and dangerous mountains and rivers to completely resist the Song army's invasion.

However, the Shu Kingdom in history was destroyed by the Song Army within sixty-six days, which is completely ridiculous.

A dynasty that has been without war and war for a long time is very dangerous.

Born in sorrow and died in happiness, this is true for people, and it is also true for the country.

For the Shu Kingdom, Wang Zhaoyuan is a key figure in the war in the north. If you get rid of him and use a more conservative strategy to hold back the Song army, the Shu Kingdom will be saved.

If Su Chen hadn't happened to meet Mu Li on the street, he wouldn't have thought of this, and it would have been a coincidence.

Meng Xuanyu said with concern: "I will make arrangements right away. Brother Chen, please rest in the house. After handling this matter, we will quickly go north to catch up with the northbound army."

Su Chen nodded slightly and suddenly said with a smile: "It's quite boring to be in the house. Has your Highness adopted any singers to dance and sing for us to entertain us?"

"No!" Meng Xuanyu snorted lightly and left with a puff of sleeves.

"Stingy!" Su Chen didn't believe that such a huge prince's palace would not have a singer and maidservant.

Meng Xuanyu must be too stingy, he just wants to keep it for himself and doesn't want his guest to see it.

"Watching a singer's performance is not a performance by a princess, so how about hiding it like this!" Su Chen muttered a few words, not daring to complain loudly, otherwise Peng Qingqing might hear it, and there would be trouble.

Su Chen came to Old Man Mu's room and checked the wound. He found that there was no inflammation and there was no high fever in his body. He breathed a sigh of relief and put on the dressing for the old man.

In fact, Old Man Mu looks like he is in his sixties, and his real age is only fifty. However, due to too much hard work and hardship, his stature is stooped, and the years have left many signs of aging on his face. He really looks like an old man.

"Sir, how is my father's injury? Will he recover?" Mu Li looked at his unconscious father, worried, and asked while wiping his tears.

"It's not a big problem. I will regain my consciousness tomorrow and can speak and eat normally. If I keep taking the medicine, after half a month, there will be no serious dangers to my life."

"That's great. Thank you, Master, for saving my life!" Mu Li cried and was about to kneel down and salute.

Su Chen took her arm and supported her body.

"It doesn't have to be like this. I draw my sword to help when there is injustice. This is my duty as a chivalrous person. Moreover, in addition to my medical contribution, Mr. Peng also took action in time to stop the beating. Otherwise, it would be difficult to save him."

Mu Li said softly: "Well, Mr. Peng, Mr. Chen (Chen), and Mr. A Li all want to thank you."

"Sister Mu Li, what about me? I brought this old man back on my back." Jing Yun smiled and stepped forward to ask.

"Thank you too, brother Jing Yun." Mu Li glanced at Jing Yun and said softly.

"Hey hey hey!" Jing Yun smiled and scratched his head, not knowing what to say.

It can be seen that the fourteen-year-old Jing Yun and the fifteen-year-old Mu Li care about and like them very much.
