Chapter 466, I still have salvation

At this moment, there were wailing sounds and mercy begging for mercy outside the bedroom.

"Your Majesty, your Majesty, spare me!"

"Your Majesty, what did the old minister make?"

The so-called list has been obtained by the Secret Guard. Mu Hongwen handed over to the emperor just to allow the important officials in the court and the nine ministers to pass the famous path.

"Continue to bring witnesses." Yuwen Yaoke impatiently continued to listen to Ye Siyin crying and argued, and directly asked Yu Linwei to bring people up.

Compared with ancient people, Ye Siyin was less secret. In addition, as a woman who was not very convenient to act and a county lord who had no name for a revenge, she wanted talent to follow and to do things, and sometimes she had to reveal some secrets.

Although not everyone knows that she is going to rebel, except that the head of the Mu family followed her first, provided her with the most money and did the most things for him, so he is most clear about this matter.

The other people who were bribed by Ye Siyin just knew what Ye Siyin asked them to do.

But after these evidences are connected together, it is an irrefutable evidence network. Anyone with a little brain can see what she wants to do.

Moreover, drugging the emperor is a death sentence.

Looking for these witnesses is just to make Ye Siyin die with peace of mind.

"Ye Siyin, the evidence is conclusive. What else do you have to say?" The empress dowager held her hands tightly and looked at Ye Siyin with expressionless face.

Ye Siyin knew that nothing she was saying was useless. She was just wondering why these things were exposed. Didn’t they do well enough?

"I was going to do these things, not to target you, but the people are living too hard. The old emperor is a foolish monarch. Under his rule, we poor people live so miserably. If he hadn't governed the country incompetently, would I become a beggar? Will God bring down the plague and punish him?"

"What I did was just thinking that the corrupt Qianqin Kingdom should have changed its dynasty. I wanted to build a country that truly allows the people to live and work in peace and contentment, a country where the emperor violated the law and committed the same crimes as the common people, rather than just talking like you."

Even if Ye Siyin dies, she must stand on the moral high ground and establish a great and glorious image for herself.

"Is that so? Do you think the Jinghe epidemic is God's punishment?" Feng Jing spoke. Although he himself doesn't like the confused father, it shouldn't be his fault. Why should this traitor add the punishment of heaven to his father?

Ye Siyin was passionately telling her ideal country, but she was interrupted by Feng Jing. She had a bad premonition, but she still retorted, "What is it if it is not God's punishment? If the king does not do well, God will send a natural disaster to warn the emperor. Did the late emperor not write a decree for guilt back then?"

Feng Jing sneered, and at this moment, King Qing stepped out and bowed, "Your Majesty, I caught a person here about the Jinghe epidemic. I thought it was him talking nonsense at the beginning. Now it seems that it is true. I will ask someone to bring him up immediately."

Yuwen Yao, "It's accurate."

After a while, Lu Qichen took the guards and escorted three people into the bedroom, knelt down and kowtowed, "Greetings to Your Majesty, I have met the Empress Dowager and the Empress."

"These three people are bandits I met when I was traveling with the imperial envoy. They were with County Lord Ye at that time. Later, I stayed in Quyang County to suppress the bandits. Now when I caught them and interrogated them, I heard something. You honestly explain what she said, and honestly explain it."

Wen Peng never thought that one day he would meet a real royal relative, rather than the fake ones he would rob those passers-by and listen to their brags.

He had already tasted Lu Qichen's methods, and at this moment she knelt on the ground and begged for mercy. "Your Majesty, when Prince Ye asked someone to take her to the forest behind Chengjia Village to search for treasures. We... we are robbers, and we didn't meet gold and gave it up. So she wanted to kill her and eat the treasures by herself. In order to convince us that she was the county lord, to prove that she could cover us and make us live a better life, she said... When she was a child, she dragged and threw the patient with smallpox into the river where everyone drank water..."

The ministers were stunned when they heard this, "She was just a six-year-old child at that time."

Ye Siyin hurriedly retorted, "Don't talk nonsense. I was still young at that time. Where did I know what that was? I was just trying to survive and coax you, but you took it out as testimony, which made people laugh to death."

"You don't know what that is? You don't know, how do you know how to treat it with cowpox?" Wen Peng knew that his crime was not serious, he was just a bandit. As long as Ye Siyin was exposed, he might be able to suffer a slight retribution.

Ye Siyin explained, "I...I just think smallpox is a bit similar to cowpox, so I just wanted to give it a try..."

The queen remembered the things that Ye Siyin usually brags to her, "Didn't you say that when you were a beggar, you met a traveling doctor who taught you some pharmacology?"

The queen went to the palace late and knew more about her, but the empress dowager was the queen mother. "No, she said she had seen too much in the village. People who had cowpox would not be infected with smallpox, so she thought cowpox had an immune effect on smallpox?"

Those who are older and have long been high-ranking officials know that Ye Siyin's words back then were exactly the same as those of the Queen Mother.

"If you want to add a crime, there is no reason to worry." Ye Siyin straightened her back even though she knelt on the ground, insisting that she just wanted to overthrow this decadent country, and she would not admit other crimes.

If you admit it, there will be no chance to turn the tables.

However, it doesn’t matter much that one more crime and one less crime. Yuwen Yao directly ordered, “Seize Ye Siyin’s title of county lord, demote her to a commoner, and imprison her in heaven.”

"Yes, your Majesty!"

Ye Siyin breathed a sigh of relief. When she was suppressed, she looked at Yuwen Ye for help. In her heart, Yuwen Yao was almost the same as the dead.

Although she was fed the Shenshen Pill just now, she believed that she could withstand it with her perseverance.

Moreover, she doesn't eat much, so she shouldn't have any problems and will not get addicted.

Even if she gets addicted, she can't get out in prison. It's like she's forced to quit. As long as she's stuck, it's fine.

As long as it can be proved that this is not poison, she will be able to turn the tables in the future.

She could not take the Shenshen Pill, but Yuwen Yao could not. He should have prepared for his funeral today. He realized that his health was not good, so he wanted to deal with her and pass the throne to Brother Ye after he had done it.

At that time, she can cry with Brother Ye. Although Yuwen Ye is colder than Yuwen Yao, he actually takes good care of everyone. He is a soft-hearted person. He just uses his cold appearance to protect his soft heart.
