Principal of the Heavens

"The trial is over?" Li Chengqian seemed very surprised, he really did not expect that this case would be resolved so quickly.

Guo Baokun and He Zongwei were really useless, they couldn't even drag him over, and the case was over.

"There are witnesses." Mei Zhili smiled awkwardly.

"Who is the witness?"

"Your Highness, he can prove that Fan Xian did not get out of the flower boat last night." Mei Zhili looked at Li Hongcheng who was on the side and said.

"Hongcheng is my royal son, so I naturally believe what he said, but Hongcheng, did you stay with Fan Xian all night last night? Do you know if Fan Xian went out without telling you?"

Li Chengqian smiled, as if he was just asking casually, but the question hit the nail on the head.

"It's true that I wasn't with Fan Xian all the time yesterday." Li Hongcheng couldn't refute. How could he explain it? Could it be that he slept with Fan Xian last night?

"That's it. What if Fan Xian goes out and beats Guo Baokun and then sneaks back? I think it's better to find another witness." Li Chengqian's tone seemed to be confident.

He had already bribed the oiran who was with Fan Xian last night in advance, and the other party would stand up and identify him later.

Even if Fan Xian didn't fight Guo Baokun, he still did.

Li Chengqian didn't care if Fan Xian hit Guo Baokun, what he wanted was to put Fan Xian in jail.

It would be best to take advantage of this opportunity to annul Fan Xian's marriage, then the internal treasury will not fall into his hands, and he will not help the second prince.

Poor Li Chengqian didn't know that the eldest princess and the second prince were in the same group, he was just because the eldest princess didn't get the love of Emperor Qing.

And Li Chengqian looked very similar to Emperor Qing back then, and became a substitute for the eldest princess for Emperor Qing.

The eldest princess is very, very ambitious, she is not going to help the prince, nor is she going to help the second prince.

If Li Yi's guess is correct, it is very likely that the eldest princess will take over by herself and become the empress of the Qing Kingdom, or she may follow the example of Ye Qingmei's reforms back then.

After all, the eldest princess's idol was Ye Qingmei back then. Unfortunately, because she didn't get the love of Emperor Qing herself, and Emperor Qing liked Ye Qingmei, she gradually hated Ye Qingmei.

The death of Ye Qingmei back then also caused a great shock to the eldest princess at that time, and made her see some things clearly, and also had some other thoughts.

For example, to do things that Ye Qingmei couldn't do back then.

"Your Highness" Mei Zhili looked at Li Chengqian, he didn't finish his sentence, but the meaning was obvious, that is, what witnesses will be passed next?

"Which oiran Fan Xian was with that day sent her over." Li Chengqian said in an extremely calm tone.

Li Yi could clearly sense that Li Chengqian had definitely been manipulated by the oiran.

Having said all of this, the other party definitely bought the oiran who slept with Fan Xian ahead of time.

"Prince trial, do you want to call all the people in the capital?" Li Chengze walked into the capital slowly while clapping his hands.

Li Yi looked back, and Li Chengze smiled when he saw him.

"See Your Highness the Second Highness." Gui knelt down again.

But this time no one kneeled down, besides Li Yi and Fan Xian, there was also Li Chengqian.

"Get up, the prince has no reason to kneel to me here." Li Chengze walked slowly in front of Li Chengze while talking.

Then he just knelt down and made a big salute, "Meet His Royal Highness the Prince."

Seeing this, Li Chengqian quickly pulled him up, "Second brother, how many times have I told you that there is no need for such a big gift between you and me."

Li Yi stood aside and watched them show the hypocrisy between brothers here.

Although the two may wish to hack each other to death, on the surface they are brothers and sisters.

"You are the crown prince, and the etiquette cannot be dismissed." Li Chengze had a gentle smile on his face. If he didn't know it, he would think that the relationship between the two brothers is so good.

"What are you doing here?" Li Chengqian also smiled back.

"Since your crown prince sits like this, the Iraqi trial in the Kyoto Prefecture will have to listen to you." Li Chengze also had a gentle smile. If you don't know him well, you might think that he is quite easy to get along with.

"Mr. Mei is in charge of the case. I'll just take a look."

"Yes." Mei Zhili nodded quickly.

"Then the case was a foregone conclusion just now, so why are witnesses called all of a sudden." Li Chengze's face suddenly changed, and he just stared at Mei Zhili.

"This, this... this." Mei Zhili was speechless at the end of the half day, so he could only quickly walk to one side, picked up a stool and put it on the other side, "Second Highness, please."

Only then did Li Chengze nodded in satisfaction and sat aside.

Now Mei Zhili only felt that his legs were unstoppably weak, and finally sat down on the chair, his whole body seemed to be relieved.

Li Yi looked down for a long time, and finally couldn't hold back his laughter.

Both Li Chengze and Li Chengqian looked at him in surprise.

"Master Mei, as the saying goes, it is a matter of loyalty to the emperor. Don't forget whose money you are eating."

Li Yi didn't care that this was the so-called court, he took a sudden step forward, walked up to Mei Zhili and raised his voice.

.

"Ah!" Mei Zhili was taken aback for a moment, and then his heart was shocked. He had to admit that Li Yi was right.

Those who watched the game were fascinated, but those who watched were clear. Mei Zhili wanted to understand in an instant when Li Yi made such a move.

It doesn't matter whether the prince or the second prince is here today, he, Mei Zhili, is from Kyoto Prefecture, and he eats His Majesty's food and money.

Even if the case is not successfully tried today, if someone remembers wanting to take revenge, at most, it is the inappropriate official of Kyoto Prefecture Yi.

Change to another place and take an idle position to provide for the elderly.

But today, if he meddles in the affairs between the crown prince and the second prince, and keeps vacillating.

Then what is waiting for me is likely to be His Majesty's anger, then I really can't bear to walk around.

Even if His Majesty didn't care about him, the person I helped today would ascend to the throne in the future, and that would have nothing to do with him, Mei Zhili.

His Majesty is still at the peak of his age, whether he waits until the crown prince or the second prince ascends the throne, he, Mei Zhili, will be dead long ago.

Even if he is retaliated against today, no matter if it is the crown prince or the second prince, at most he will not be able to continue working as a man in Kyoto Prefecture.

If he has been vacillating, he may even be biased towards a certain side, no longer caring about the real justice of this case, but helping someone.

If His Majesty knew about this matter, I am afraid that he would not be able to do Kyoto Fuyi. If he was lucky, he would retire and return to his hometown. If he was unlucky, he might not even die.

After Mei Zhili figured this out, his whole body gradually settled down, and he was no longer as frightened as before, worrying about offending a certain party.

No matter how bad the situation is now, it won't be much worse, and the worst is that I can't do it in Kyoto Prefecture.

Find a place to take an idle position, maybe after you die, your rank can be raised by one or two ranks.

Li Yi turned his head to look at the prince at this time, "His Royal Highness, I have to remind you of one thing."

"Oh, what's the matter?" Li Chengqian asked as if suddenly interested.
