Unparalleled Concubine

   Chapter 195 Minister Li Xin rebelled!

   "Your Majesty, the minister Li Yan sued the military envoy Li Xin, colluded with the rebels in the southern border, framed the generals of the court, and conspired to rebel, and the crime cannot be punished!"

   In the side hall of Changle Palace, Li Yan, who had returned from the southern border, respectfully knelt in front of the emperor of Chengde, and said these words with awe.

   Not only did he say, he also wrote a memorial, and indeed he came to impeach Li Xin.

   Fortunately, this is not a court, but a private summons by the emperor of Chengde, otherwise the contradiction between Li Xin and the Pingnan Houfu will be known to everyone.

Li Yan knelt on the ground, and said solemnly as he played the book: "Your Majesty, the last general and others have checked it out, Li Xin had contact with the leader of the Nanshu bandit Li Xing during his tenure as the military envoy of Nanjiang, although he was not clear about this. What the **** did Ren and Li Xing say, but after he returned to Beijing, he wanted to frame the Pingnan Army, and the wolf's ambitions have been revealed, please, your majesty, immediately order to take this scorpion into prison for inquiries!"

  The emperor of Chengde carefully read the manuscript that Li Yan handed over, then glanced at Li Yan, who was kneeling on the ground, and said indifferently: "What happened to Li Xin's trapping the southern army?"

   "Naturally, it is to frame the death list of the Pingnan Army!"

Li Yan kowtowed and said with tears: "Your Majesty, there is chaos in the southern border, and I will fight the enemy bravely and bravely. Thinking of the fact that we fought bravely on the front line to kill the enemy, this military envoy from the imperial court actually fabricated the facts behind his back and framed our peace!"

   "Your Majesty, if you don't kill this beast, not only will the more than 10,000 soldiers of our Pingnan Army die in battle, but also the last time the Pingnan Army will die!"

Saying that, Li Yan took out another document from his arms and said, "Your Majesty, please see, this is the list of those killed in battle after the last two months. Your Majesty can send people to visit them one by one. They all really died on the battlefield!"

   Li Yanhu had tears in his eyes: "Li Xin, the supervisor of the army, is instigating right and wrong in front of Your Majesty, saying that I Ping Nanjun made up a list of dead in battle. Your Majesty will take a look at it for yourself. Could one of them be forged?"

All the people in the southern border are from the Li family. It is easy to make some evidence. For example, when it comes to the pension list, Ping Nanjun only needs to pick out the people who have recently written letters to the family from the pension list. Either kill it, or hide it, and it's so seamless that no one can find out.

   Even if the capital sent imperial officials to the southern border to investigate, they couldn't find out anything.

   In other words, the evidence of Li Xin is now untenable.

After all, Li Xin has only collected 37 people who wrote letters to his family. As long as Ping Nanjun operates, he can select these 37 people, or all the people who have written letters to his family recently, and secretly hide them. The previous evidence will all turn into a blank slate.

  Ping Nanjun could even say that the evidence in Li Xin's hands was forged.

   The right to speak is in their hands.

   At this point in the conversation, the emperor of Chengde already understood what the Li family was going to do.

   The Li family wanted to kill Li Xin!

   The emperor closed the memorial and said with a laugh: "Li Aiqing, Li Xin has never written to Pingnan Houfu, is there any misunderstanding?"

From a procedural point of view, Li Xin did not sue the Pingnan Marquis Mansion, because those evidences were directly submitted by Li Xin to the emperor, and no one had passed it, and there was no written evidence to prove that Li Xin had sued, Even the three provincial yamen did not leave a bottom line.

   As long as the emperor of Chengde shook his head in denial, then Li Xin was equivalent to never suing the Li family.

   After all, the Son of Heaven is always right, and no one dares to question this.

   Having said this, the Emperor Chengde glanced at Li Yan lightly, and said with a smile: "Li Qing, the Pingnan Army is thousands of miles away. How did you know that Li Xin wrote to you?"

  The emperor's attitude is still very clear. If you want to kill someone, I will take action to protect them.

  Li Yan's face changed slightly.

   After all, he is a military general, and when it comes to playing with his heart, he has to lose to the emperor of Chengde. This big man knelt on the ground and lowered his head: "Your Majesty, that Li Xin threatened Mrs. Hou in Beijing, you know this..."

   "I don't know."

  The emperor of Chengde blinked his eyes, and his face did not change: "Li Qing, I have never known about this before, so don't speak vernacular."

This is the advantage of the emperor. Even if you talk nonsense, no one dares to jump out to refute you. As an emperor, you may even have the ability to slightly distort reality, that is, even if you are wrong, you will naturally become right. .

  For example, the emperor of Chengde now refers to deer as horses, so all deer in the Dajin territory will be called horses. After hundreds of thousands of years, this name may still be passed down, and it will be written in the books of later generations.

Li Yan gritted his teeth: "Your Majesty, this is a misunderstanding of the minister, but this Li Xin met with the rebel leader Li Xing when he was in the capital city of Hanzhou in the southern border. This is an indisputable fact. The military envoy, the anti-thief at night, must have some wicked thoughts!"

   Chengde Tianzi slightly changed color: "Is there any evidence?"

   Even if the emperor of Chengde wanted to protect Li Xin, he would personally meet with the southern border rebels, but he would have touched his bottom line, because the rebels involved the fundamental evil of the imperial power and could never be tolerated.

   In the monarchy era, any crime could be exonerated, but rebellion was not enough. Even if the prince rebelled, most of them would have to die.

Li Yan lowered his head and said, "That night, Cheng Ping once sent someone to follow behind this Li Xin, and saw Li Xin and the leader of the rebels meet with his own eyes, but he was lost, otherwise he could have caught Li Xin on the spot that day. , let him have no quibble!"

   Chengde Tianzi looked calm: "That is to say, you still have no evidence."

Li Yan said solemnly: "Your Majesty, if this Li Xin colluded with the remnants of Nanshu, there would definitely be someone from Shu who would be in charge of contacting the information. Your Majesty only needs to send someone to check if there is anyone from Shu County around Li Xin. , things will be clear!"

   If Li Xin was present at this time, he would most likely curse out loud.

  No third party knows about his cooperation with Li Xing except the two parties. Since Li Xing sent Mu Ying over, it means that he has no intention of breaking the covenant for the time being, and Mu Ying's identity has been leaked out.

  Things are already obvious…

   There must be a spy from Pingnan Houfu beside that Highness Li Xing!

  The emperor of Chengde frowned slightly, waved his hand, and said, "Go check to see if there is anyone from Shu around Li Xin."

  The **** Chen Ju slightly bent over: "Old slave obeys."

After Chen Ju retreated, the emperor of Chengde looked at Li Yan with a smile, stepped forward to help him up, and said with a smile: "Li Qing has been in the army for half his life, and he has done a lot of credit. In the future, you will stay in the capital and enjoy the happiness."

   Li Yan respectfully said: "My minister, thank you for your kindness."

  The emperor of Chengde patted Li Yan on the shoulder, hehe said with a smile: "Do it well, work as a servant for a few years to get your qualifications, and when the time is right, I will hand over the military department to you."

   Li Yan immediately knelt down and thanked him.

   "Your Majesty's kindness, I can't repay it!"

   Looking at Li Yan kneeling on the ground, the emperor of Chengde was a little dazed. He looked up to the south, thinking of the playmate who grew up with him.
