Chapter 71

Erosion a handful of rice

Emperor Li Zhi originally had a lot of anger that had not yet been vented, but the anger that had just calmed down was ignited again by the second prince's "groundless accusation".

"Unprovoked? Okay, okay, okay, I'm here to ask you, why did you go to the Prince's Mansion to find Yu'er for no reason?" It could be seen from Li Zhi's face that he was holding back his anger.

"My dear brother, I miss you, and I want to visit you. Isn't that okay?" The second prince had a sudden change of heart and casually said this reason, which was not painful or itchy. However, he began to feel weak in his heart. He was so nervous that he even felt like having diarrhea all the time.

All disappeared without a trace.

"Guizi, can you find a fresher reason? Can you say something else? If I remember correctly, you visited the prince at his house several times because you missed him. Why did you come in person this time because you missed him?

Coming to visit? Not long after we returned, it suddenly emerged that Prince Li Yu defrauded you of your money. I hope you can think carefully before answering the question, clarify it, straighten it out before speaking." The emperor's words came to mind immediately.

The second prince, who was already feeling guilty, was left speechless.

"Father, it is true that Li Yu received one million taels of silver from my son. Many servants are present to testify. If not, you can ask my servant's entourage." The second prince began to argue.

"You think others are fools, but you are smart. Aren't your followers still following you? What evidence can you get from the mouths of those dog slaves? Let's put it another way."

"Why don't we call Eunuch Chen from the Prince's Mansion? He was also present at the time. He can testify." The second prince also knew that the possibility of Eunuch Chen turning towards him was not very high, but he kept talking.

Isn’t this just a mouthful? Let’s treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor.

"Okay, this is what you said, then I will give in one more step, Wu Shouli, go and summon Chen Gong and that slave, and let him testify on the spot." Li Zhi wasted so much energy today just to completely resolve this incident.

Otherwise, housework alone will give you a headache.

Originally, Chen Gonghe did not go far. He was waiting near the palace for the result of Li Yu's imperial petition. Waiting, waiting, he waited until Wu Shouli, the deputy chief eunuch of the palace, came to call him, saying that he was summoned by the emperor.

"Could there be some trouble? Why does the prince's complaint have something to do with me? It's all a household matter for them. At my level, I can't get involved. Even if I get involved, I'm not human inside and out.

, maybe there will be a fatal disaster." But there was no time to think about it, and he trotted all the way to the imperial study room of Emperor Li Zhi.

Chen Gonghe, who had just entered the imperial study, was about to kneel down and bow to the emperor Li Zhi, but was stopped by the emperor with gestures. Then he stepped forward and asked: "Eunuch Chen, I have something to ask you. You must tell the truth."

If there is any falsehood in the report, if the crime of deceiving the emperor and the death of the nine clans are executed, can you understand me?"

"Thank you, Your Majesty. I understand. If the Emperor has anything to say, feel free to ask. I will tell you everything you know. I will never dare to hide anything." He said it, but in his heart, he said bitterly.

Your prince, your highness, your highness, why did you drag me, a lowly and lowly eunuch, into this? If it is about the two of them, in this face-to-face situation, if you are not careful, you will get yourself into trouble.

In the deep water and heat, beads of sweat began to appear densely on his forehead, and his heart beat faster involuntarily.

"That day when the Second Prince went to the Prince's Mansion, you were present."

"The old slave was indeed on the spot."

"I ask you again, have you ever seen the Second Prince give any banknotes to His Highness the Crown Prince?"

"I gave it!" Eunuch Chen Gonghe said affirmatively.

"I have told you, my father. I still don't believe it. I have wronged my sincere heart." The old eunuch Chen Gonghe's answer made Concubine Yun Gui and the second prince's eyes light up at the same time, and their hearts suddenly became brighter, and they were ready to continue talking.

The injustice placed on the innocent head.

Before Emperor Li Zhi could continue to ask about the details of the matter, Chen Gonghe continued: "Yes, I gave it, but..."

"But what?" the emperor asked.

"They are all fake. Not a single silver note can be exchanged for silver. Now they are all here with the old slave. Please take a look at your majesty." The old eunuch's following words immediately hit Concubine Yun and the second prince who had just gained a glimmer of hope.

After beating him hard, what is this new situation?

"You have put a lot of effort into dealing with the prince. Why do I think Yu'er is so sad? It turns out you are so shameless." The emperor didn't even look at the banknote in Chen Gonghe's hand, and ordered Wu Shouli to take it.

I went to Yanyu Manor to redeem the silver notes. After a while, Wu Shouli walked in and said breathlessly: "Your Majesty, these banknotes are very skillfully made. If the amount is small, you can really withdraw the money, but because of the amount

It's huge. Each banknote has a secret mark made by Yanyuzhuang, and there are hidden numbers that correspond to the money. However, none of these banknotes are correct. It seems that just as Eunuch Chen said, they are all forgeries.

, Because of this, Yanyu Village must prepare to specifically rectify the counterfeiting of banknotes to prevent counterfeiting from becoming prevalent and ruining Zhuangyin’s business.”

"Gui Zi, you have heard everything, can you give me a reasonable explanation, and then tell me whether your groundless accusation is my father's groundless accusation against you." Li Zhi pointed at the second prince Li Changji and yelled angrily.

"How is this possible? Father, someone must have framed my son, please come to a clear conclusion!" At this time, the second prince already felt that things were not as simple as he thought.

"By the way, I have some supporting evidence. Can my father take a look at it? After reading it, my father will believe that what Chang'er said is true." After saying that, he took out a marriage certificate signed by Li Yu's nickname from his arms.

Letter of breach of contract.

It's okay not to read it. When Emperor Li Zhi took a rough look at the content above, he could no longer hold back the anger in his chest and said loudly: "Are the guards on the left and right here?"

"Here are my subordinates." Two tall and powerful royal guards walked in from outside the tent. They were all dressed in bright armor and had serious expressions on their faces. They clasped their fists and bowed to the side, waiting for Emperor Li Zhi's command.

command.

"Take this piece of so-called evidence that the second prince said in my hand and stuff it into his stomach. Remember this small piece. You must not leave any of it to me, otherwise you will be executed without mercy." Finally.

The three words were almost squeezed out from Li Zhi's teeth.

"I can't, Father, it's because I ate a piece of paper that I kept doing it all day and night. I'm wrong. Please spare me. I'll never do that again."

It's a lie..." The bursts of tearing screams made Li Yu, who was leaning next to the stone pillar, tremble with fear. If this was like this, he wouldn't have to wait for another day and night. Thinking of this, Li Yu

I began to express my deep sympathy for the second prince, Amitabha, second prince, you must hold on!

As the two royal guards dragged out the second prince Li Changji, the pitiful voice became farther and farther away until it stopped breathing. Although Concubine Yun wanted to stop it, she knew that this would annoy the emperor even more and make the emperor even more angry.

In his rage, he might even punish herself. She would still be the one to suffer the loss, so she endured the pain in her heart and didn't say another word. She knew that even if she was wrong in this matter,

That's not a big deal, just give him a small punishment to calm him down, and the matter will gradually fade away.

Although I don't know why my banknote suddenly turned out to be fake, it is no longer important. I have been convicted of blackmail. At this moment, I can only hold back and let the emperor's anger vent.

At this time, Concubine Yun was most worried about the second prince's ascendancy in the future. Through this incident, she had a new understanding of Li Yu, who had always been known as a fool. Not to mention in the prince's house, she saw

Considering that Li Yu is eloquent and experienced in dealing with matters, as far as today's dispute is concerned, he has completely failed, and the failure was a complete mess. The saddest thing is that during the whole process, Li Yu was not even interested in defending himself.

No, he didn't even say a word, he didn't vomit a single word. The emperor alone argued to the point of complete exhaustion. How could this prince Li Yu bewitch your majesty to turn towards him, and also get so angry? This is so true.

Concubine Yun Gui did not expect, especially when she thought that she would show her disgust for Li Yu when talking to her on weekdays, but now in addition to having deep hatred, she also had such a hidden hatred for Li Yu.

The deep-seated city felt scared and frightened, feeling that Li Yu was now a devil that should not be provoked. Once he was provoked, he would be chased by the opponent until he was unable to fight back before giving up.
