Wishful Things

Chapter 452 Great Progress

The words above are enough to prove that the poisoning of the Empress Dowager was a plan that the King of Xiang had agreed with the King of Dongwu before he entered Beijing...

This move is intended to completely break the seemingly peaceful relationship between him and the emperor at the moment, so that King Xiang and Dongwu can reap the benefits of fishing!

King Yan was indignant at this time.

He would not be so naive as to think that there would be no conflicts of interest between brothers, but in order to achieve success, the King of Xiang planned to kill his mother's life, which is really too unscrupulous...

As far as a country is concerned, this move is undoubtedly tantamount to luring wolves into the house, seeking skins from tigers, and ignoring the people of Daqing!

At this moment, King Yan didn't feel any hesitation in his heart.

For so many years since he was a child, it's not that he can't see through the fourth brother's dislike for him, as well as the other party's overt and secret thoughts—it's just that in his opinion, these trivial things are not worth paying attention to, and because he is an elder brother, he never really cares about the other party.

But right and wrong are at hand, and some things must not be tolerated in the slightest!

"This letter is enough to be used as evidence." Wu Chao said, "Just hand it over to the emperor."

Regarding the dragon chair under him, I am not afraid that the emperor will not investigate deeply.

Therefore, they don't need to worry about the rest of the matter.

Xu Mingyi nodded, and said: "Naturally, it must be handed over to the emperor, but it is not suitable for the prince to present it in person, otherwise it will definitely attract suspicion, and if we talk about the origin of this letter, I am afraid that the King of Xiang will bite back and cause unnecessary troubles and troubles."

"That's right, Miss Xu is very thoughtful." King Yan looked at the letter in his hand and said slowly, "To prevent the emperor from dealing with King Xiang privately, we need to expose this matter to others..."

If you don't do this, Ji Shangshu's charges will still not be cleared.

After thinking for a moment, Wu Chao asked, "My lord is in Beijing, is there any trustworthy person who can come forward to push this matter?"

King Yan nodded slightly: "I did think of an old friend..."

Although it can't be called a good relationship, and there has never been any correspondence in these years, he can trust the honesty of the other party, and in terms of current status, the other party is also the most suitable person for this matter.

Tonight, he will go to see this old friend.

...

The next morning, when the ministers saw that His Majesty the Emperor sitting on the dragon chair looked better than the previous two days, they couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief.

Since the emperor can still hold on, they are relieved.

As a result, many people reported the things that had accumulated in the past two days.

There are many unresolved local political affairs, as well as the public's discussion on the fact that the Empress Dowager was almost poisoned. An elderly minister was talking, and even recited two limericks he heard in public.

The young officials on the side listened with complicated expressions.

This doggerel is obviously aimed at the emperor, why is this old fool reading it in public, isn't he afraid that the emperor and everyone will feel embarrassed?

And even though I am old, my memory is not bad, and I can read two songs once!

But from this we can also see how smooth the doggerel is...

There are also those catchy nursery rhymes, which seem to be like a playbook of such a thing...

With this literary talent, wouldn't it be good to be the number one scholar? Why bother to join the Purple Star Sect to do such a terrible job?

Emperor Qingming, who had listened to two doggerel poems in succession, maintained a peaceful and magnanimous expression on his face, and said: "The common people did not make any mistakes, but they were temporarily deceived by the Zixing Cultists. When the case of Concubine Sun's attempt to poison her mother is settled, and the whole truth is revealed to everyone, it is expected that these rumors will be dispelled without attack—"

As he said that, he looked at the left and right censors of the Metropolitan Procuratorate among the civil servants, and asked, "Is there any progress in this case? Do Concubine Sun and Ji Xiu have any new testimony?"

The case was investigated and tried by the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Dali Temple Tongjiweihui. As for the progress of the case, the left and right imperial censors are the clearest.

Fang Shen, the censor of the right capital raised his sleeve slightly, and was about to step out when he saw the censor of the left capital, Mingxiao, who was beside him, quickly stepped out.

Fang Shen was taken aback for a moment—he didn't seem to have revealed anything to the other party beforehand, did he? Could it be that the other party was secretly notified by the police guard?

But how could this stubborn donkey act according to the arrangement of the police guard?

While Fang Shen was puzzled, he saw that the chief of Mingxiao gave a salute, and said in a concentrated voice: "Return to Your Majesty, this case has made great progress!"

Hearing this tone, Fang Shen's brows twitched a few times—according to his understanding of this stubborn donkey, such a posture must cause big troubles!

Emperor Qingming nodded his head to signal Ming Xiaozhi to continue.

Fang Shen opened his mouth tremblingly - Your Majesty, this is not our person at all, he has never read the manuscript!

And in the next moment, his bad intuition was confirmed thoroughly...

"Your Majesty, I believe that the mastermind behind Sun Taifei's attempt to poison the Empress Dowager is the King of Xiang! Sun Taifei's slander of Ji Shangshu is really to exonerate his son!" Ming Yushi's voice resounded loudly and clearly spread in the hall.

who?

King Xiang?

Emperor Qingming's eyes froze, and he suddenly felt that the whole person was not well - what kind of mess is this? Who told them to check Xiang Wang? Hasn't the plan been conveyed by Han Yan? Won't you act after writing the script? !

"..." Fang Shen dared not raise his head to meet the emperor's eyes.

The "evidence" given to him by Commander Han that can prove Ji Xiu's crimes is all in his sleeves at this moment, but who knows that this bald guy who can't figure out the situation has preempted him first!

But why did this bald guy get involved with King Xiang?

Still looking determined!

Fang Shen calmed down his thoughts, and said at the right time: "Is there any evidence for Ming Yushi's statement? This case is clearly being tried by me and Ming Yushi. How could I not have the slightest idea that His Royal Highness King Xiang is involved in this case?"

In terms of evidence, the things on his sleeve are enough to incriminate Ji Xiu. Today, he must make this stubborn donkey who is against him look good.

Feeling the heavy sleeve pockets, Fang Yushi stabilized himself.

However, this state of sure victory did not last long——

Ming Xiaozhi didn't even look at the colleague who asked the question, as if he didn't notice it at all.

He took out a piece of bamboo tube from his sleeve, held it in his hand, and said solemnly: "Your Majesty, this is a secret letter from the residence of the King of Xiang. It can be seen from the writing on it that the King of Xiang has planned to murder the Empress Dowager for a long time! Moreover, this letter looks like a family letter, but in fact it is a secret letter with King Dongwu. Daqing's internal troubles have messed up our Daqing royal family!"

In the first half of the hearing, Emperor Qingming only felt a headache and irritability, this Ming surname was really getting in the way and adding to the confusion, but when he really heard the latter part, his heart was suddenly filled with turmoil.

The hall also suddenly became noisy, and the expressions of all the officials changed.
