Chapter 256 Revenge
"What!"
Upon hearing this, the Prince of Han was horrified and did not even care about the strategist. He immediately asked, "What happened? Why was he arrested by the Dali Temple?"
He was shocked and suspicious.
Didn’t we use the power of the Prince of Han’s Palace to help him settle the last incident?
At that time, the Dali Temple did not say anything.
Why did they suddenly arrest him this time?
The servant shook his head and said, "We don't know why. Prince Wang was at home and the people from the Dali Temple broke in and took him away without any explanation..."
The Prince of Han was suddenly shocked.
Just yesterday he designed a plan to capture Li Nuo's sister-in-law.
Today, Wang Heng was arrested by the Dali Temple.
Could there be any connection between these?
It can't be such a coincidence!
He looked at Lin Ting and said, "I'll go back to the palace first. You go home quickly and invite Master Lin to come over!"
Lin Ting shook his head and said, "No need, I'll go back to the palace with you. I'm afraid my father has already passed away..."
When the two arrived at the Prince of Han's Palace, the Jingzhao Yin had indeed arrived.
The King of Han was also puzzled and asked, "What mistake did Wang Heng make? Why did the Dali Temple arrest him?"
Jingzhao Yin said: "I had already inquired before I came here. It was because of the murder case two years ago."
If the Dali Temple had arrested someone else, the King of Han would not have bothered to care.
But Wang Heng is the legitimate son of the Wang family. Although he is not the eldest son, he is also born to the mistress.
The Wang family did not need him to inherit the family business. Wang Heng had been playful since childhood, so the Wang family simply sent him to Chang'an to experience the colorful world.
The Wang family has absolute power in Jinyang. Even if Wang Heng committed a crime, it can be easily dealt with by relying on the family's power.
But Chang'an was not the Wang family's sphere of influence. When Wang Heng first arrived, he still retained his temper in Jinyang and caused a lot of trouble, which was settled for him by the Han Palace.
The most serious incident was when he beat someone to death because of an argument.
If it were in Jinyang, this would certainly not be a big deal.
But in Chang'an, if the court took it seriously, they could chop off his head.
However, the imperial court should have also been concerned about the Wang family. After some operations by the Prince of Han's Palace, the matter was finally settled. The Ministry of Justice and even the Dali Temple chose to turn a blind eye.
It has been two years since this incident happened. Why did Li Xuanjing suddenly bring up the old case again?
The two people who had just returned to the palace naturally heard the conversation between the King of Han and the Jingzhao Yin.
The Prince of Han showed an expression of extreme shock on his face.
If it was because of a new case, he might not be suspicious.
How could it be such a coincidence that he had just done that thing, and just one day later, the Dali Temple brought up the case from two years ago again?
revenge!
This must be revenge!
But - they did it perfectly, how did he know?
While the King of Han was still wondering, the Jingzhao Yin had already noticed that the expressions of the King of Han's Crown Prince and his son were not right.
He looked at Lin Ting, his face darkened, and said, "What on earth did you do? Tell me!"
Lin Ting shuddered and glanced at the Prince of Han.
Things have come to this point, it is no longer possible to conceal the truth. Saving Wang Heng must be the top priority, so the Prince of Han had no choice but to tell the truth.
After hearing this, the King of Han was stunned and asked uncertainly, "What did you say? You had someone kill the Magistrate of Fengyang. Are you two going to plot against Li Xuanjing?"
Li Gan was not convinced and said, "A son of Li Xuanjing can bully our Han Palace again and again. I can't swallow this breath. I want to kill him!"
The King of Han looked at him and asked, "You kill his heart and he kills your people. Is this the result you want?"
Li Gan instantly lost his temper and said, "I don't know how he knew it was us who did it. We did it perfectly..."
The King of Han was almost laughing out of anger and asked, "Do you know who you are fighting against, Li Xuanjing? He is the master of solving cases and the smartest man in Daxia. Who do you think you are if you try to plot against him?"
Li Gan did not talk back this time and said, "Father, what should we do now?"
The King of Han waved his hand and said, "Don't call me father. You are my father. You are braver than me. I am ashamed of myself..."
Jingzhao Yin tried to smooth things over, saying, "Your Majesty, now is not the time to quarrel. You should think about how to save the young master of the Wang family. Otherwise, it will be difficult to explain to the Jinyang Wang family..."
We must give an explanation to the Jinyang Wang family.
The Wang family is a major support force for the King of Han and provides huge financial support to the Han Palace every year.
Jingzhao Yin continued, "Li Xuanjing's ability to arrest people shows that he has enough evidence in his hands. Even if the case spreads to three provinces, he is still right. He can still argue even if he is wrong, and he will not let others off even if he is right..."
The King of Han pondered for a long time, a trace of pain appeared on his face, but at the moment, he had no other choice.
He glared at Li Gan, turned around and walked out of the hall. After a long time, he came back and handed a gold medal of immunity from death to Li Gan, saying, "Take this medal and go to the Dali Temple to give it to Li Xuanjing and exchange Wang Heng back..."
Wang Heng was not a powerful official, so there was no way for him to avoid punishment by demoting his rank.
The only thing that can save him is the golden medal of immunity from death.
There is only one such plaque in the Han Palace.
Li Gan took the sign and rushed to the Dali Temple immediately, and Lin Ting went with him.
When only the King of Han and the Jingzhao Yin were left in the hall, the two looked at each other and saw a hint of fear in each other's eyes.
The two of them hoped that they would never be noticed by Li Xuanjing, but these two rebellious sons actually took the initiative to come to his house to provoke him.
Jingzhao Yin touched his chin and said, "Although the prince is impulsive, he shouldn't do such a thing. I suspect that someone is behind this..."
The King of Han frowned and asked, "Who is it?"
Jingzhao Yin shook his head and said, "I'm afraid we can only wait for them to come back and ask them in detail..."
At this time, on the streets of Chang'an, the Prince of Han, holding the golden medal of immunity from death, kept urging the coachman to hurry up.
He was afraid that Li Xuanjing would sentence Wang Heng to death on the spot, and that it would be too late even if he had a golden medal of immunity from death.
After arriving at the Dali Temple, before he even entered the courtroom, he heard a wooden gavel bang, followed by a majestic voice: "The criminal, Wang Heng, on the ninth day of the third month of the thirty-second year of Zhisheng, you beat Wei Peng to death because of a trivial quarrel. The evidence is irrefutable. Now, according to the Daxia Law, you are sentenced to death by beheading..."
"Wait a minute!"
At this moment, a figure strode into the court.
A young figure kneeling in the hall smiled when he saw Li Gan.
As soon as Li Gan walked in, he saw Li Nuo sitting in the audience.
It’s indeed him!
Although I don’t know how he found out, there is no doubt that what happened to Wang Heng was his revenge for what happened yesterday.
But so what?
He could use the golden medal of immunity from death to save that woman, and he could also use it to save Wang Heng.
In this round, both sides tied.
In the court, the Dali Temple Shaoqing looked at Li Gan and asked, "Prince of Han, why did you break into the court without permission?"
Li Gan straightened his chest and said, "I have the golden medal of immunity from death granted by His Majesty, which can exempt Wang Heng from death."
At this moment, he felt like the hero in the opera who always appeared at the critical moment and turned the situation around in one fell swoop.
The Dali Temple's Shaoqing walked down the hall and said, "Your Highness, please present the golden medal of immunity from death."
Li Gan's expression was calm, and he reached into his arms.
one time.
Twice.
Three times.
But I didn't touch anything.
The next moment, his expression changed, he lowered his head suddenly, and said in confusion and shock: "Where is my gold medal!"
There was a secret pocket in his arms, and he had clearly placed the golden medal of immunity from death inside the secret pocket.
But at this moment, his pockets were empty.
He felt all over his body in disbelief, and even jumped a few times on the spot in the court, but he did not feel the heaviness of the gold medal as it should be.
This means the gold medal is not in his possession.
The Junior Official of the Dali Temple waited for a long time, and seeing that he was still not taking out the gold medal, he said, "Prince of Han, if you have brought the gold medal of immunity from death, please take it out, and the Dali Temple will release you according to the law. If you don't have it, please don't disturb the court..."
There was nothing on his body. Li Gan looked as if he had seen a ghost and said, "Wait a moment. My gold medal might have fallen on the road or on the carriage. Let me look for it..."
After saying that, he strode out and searched along the way.
There was no Dali Temple on the road he just passed.
On the carriage, no.
He got on the carriage as soon as he came out of the Prince of Han's Palace, and the only road he passed was the Prince's Palace and the Dali Temple.
Since it wasn't found in the Dali Temple or in the carriage, it must have fallen in the palace.
Fortunately, if it fell in the palace, it should be impossible to lose it.
As soon as the carriage stopped at the palace, Li Gan couldn't wait to jump off the carriage and search along the route he had just taken until he arrived at the palace.
The King of Han had just picked up the teacup, and seeing him come back so quickly, he stood up and asked in surprise, "So soon, has Wang Heng returned?"
Li Gan looked at the King of Han and shook his head blankly.
The King of Han was stunned when he heard this, and then he became furious: "What? Li Xuanjing dares not recognize the golden medal of immunity from death? He used the golden medal of immunity from death to absolve himself of his crime yesterday. Is he really lawless?"
Li Gan shook his head and said, "No."
The King of Han was stunned again and asked, "What is that?"
Li Gan looked at him and said in a daze: "The gold medal of immunity from death, the gold medal of immunity from death is lost..."
