Cui Jingzhong's temples were pounding, and he quickly asked Jiang Ruozhong to sit down and signaled him not to speak so loudly. After a long pause, Cui Xiang showed an expression of being greatly wronged. "This matter is indeed of great importance, please Mr. Jiang."

I’m very grateful for finding out this matter.”

When Jiang Ruozhong heard this, he knew that the matter was done, and lit another fire, "That's natural. You don't know, Prime Minister Cui, that the southwest caravan carried many letters with them, more than twenty! This matter is related to

Prime Minister Cui Qingyu, why not report it to His Majesty?"

Cui Xiang's hand shook, and the tea he had just poured burned the back of his hand red. He smiled awkwardly, "There is no need to disturb Your Majesty, I will rely on Mr. Jiang for now."

Jiang Ruozhong waved his hand and reassured Cui Xiang that he would keep his mouth shut. Moreover, the group of people who framed Cui Xiang would be found out soon. Ye Ningyu listened to Jiang Ruozhong's account of what happened last night and was impressed by her uncle's acting skills...

...with a new understanding. She looked at Jiang Ruoyong aside, "I have to thank my second uncle for this. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have found the caravan so quickly."

Jiang Ruoyong smiled and drank tea, looking calm. "It's not a big deal..." It's really not a big deal, but that caravan happened to be his mortal enemy, and one of their stewards happened to be Jiang Ruoyong's apprentice. The apprentice and

He accidentally let it slip while drinking tea... a coincidence! Jiang Ruoyong insisted that this was all a coincidence! He is not a kind businessman, but he is not like some big businessmen who do everything. He has always believed in making money in the right way.

The Jiang family brothers did not stay in Ye Mansion for too long. Ye Ningyu sent them to the door. In order to hide from others, Ye Ningyu stood in the courtyard and did not go out. The two of them left with a pair of guards.

In the Ye Mansion, Jiang Ruozhong was preparing to enter the palace to see the emperor. Originally, he should have gone to the palace first, but he had to travel a lot to offer incense sticks to his brother-in-law, which made sense. At the entrance of the alley, a carriage stopped in the opposite direction from where the group of people left.

The car curtain was opened, and a slender and white hand with clear joints stretched out. The owner of the hand turned his head and looked in the direction of Ye Mansion. From his position, he could just see the lintel of Ye Mansion, as well as what was said in Dadu a few days ago.

The two stone lions were excited. The man's eyes no longer had the usual indifference. At this moment, his eyes were deep, and his thoughts seemed to be drifting far away. "What, you want to make friends with the Ye family?"

Liu Yiping looked at the people around him. Bai Chengzhi looked deeply and lowered the car curtain. "Let's go."

Liu Yiping looked at him, feeling bored. He picked up a medical book in the medicine box at his feet and flipped through it casually. I don't know if it was an illusion or something. When the carriage passed by the gate of Ye Mansion, Bai Chengzhi seemed to feel a gaze. He opened the door again.

Looking behind the curtain, there were still only a few servants guarding the door of Ye Mansion. He didn't know why he felt a faint sense of loss in his heart. He didn't even realize that the emotion he was feeling at the moment was

Lost. On September 15th, the twenty-sixth year of Yuanqing, the capital city woke up very early. The people were diligent and diligent, and as soon as it dawned, many people left their homes. Some were studying, some were farming, and some were going out for business.

, it seems that this is an ordinary day. But in the Yu State Palace, the ministers who were attending the morning meeting were all worried and waited outside the palace gate early because something big happened today. The last time something like this happened, it was five years ago.

On the day when the crown prince was enthroned years ago, His Majesty had already attached himself to the position of crown prince. Compared with the unworthy King Jing, King Yong, and King Cheng who had been traveling abroad for a long time, the prince was almost without any suspense in his position in the East Palace. Today, the prince is no longer in the palace.

It once became the topic of everyone's attention in the morning, but it is no longer as dazzling as it was five years ago. Emperor Yu sat high in the hall, and all the officials stood silently. Ye Ningyu, Prince, Dali

The three ministers of the Dali Temple, Cao Zhanpeng, knelt in front. Cao Zhanpeng listed the witnesses and physical evidence that he had found in the past five days one by one, and submitted a memorial. The minister of Dali Temple was directly promoted by the emperor, and Cao Zhanpeng, the minister of Dali Temple, only

Responsible to the emperor. The testimonies of Lieutenant Generals Gu Hong and Ye Yongchang, the testimonies provided by Zhang Wenxiu and his assistants, the testimonies of the crown prince's personal guards... "The spies of the Liang Kingdom carried out a plan of alienation, and the crown prince accidentally killed General Ye. After learning the truth, he failed to report it to His Majesty in time.

They forced the historians to tamper with the march records and killed 300 of our soldiers who knew about it."

Cao Zhanpeng's words were very objective and did not contain any personal emotions. He placed the facts he had found in front of His Majesty and asked him to make a decision. The clues all pointed to the prince. Cao Zhanpeng connected these clues in a clear context and clear motives. So far

All the fig leaves of the prince were torn off. Cao Zhanpeng even brought two soldiers, an old man and a young man, to the palace. One of them was about forty years old, and the other was about seventeen or eighteen years old. They came from this border

Those who escaped, but they were not deserters, but escaped from the poisonous hands of the prince. The old soldier was covered with scars and emaciated. He was lying on the hall, trembling and unable to speak clearly. "That day, the prince chopped off General Ye's head.

Next, he ordered me to guard Mr. Zhang’s camp. After the incident was completed, the prince... the prince ordered that all the three hundred soldiers who knew about it should be buried alive. It rained heavily that night, and the soil was loosened, so we two fought desperately to escape.

, fled all the way back to Dadu..." "You...you are talking nonsense! Gu did not, Gu did not give the order to kill you!"

The prince came to the old soldier, ready to kick him. The emperor looked at him, and two palace men quickly stopped the prince. The emperor looked at the two soldiers, then at Ye Ningyu, and asked the old soldier, "You,

Do you know her?"

Ye Ningyu raised her head openly and let the veteran identify him. The veteran only glanced at it and shook his head. "As your Majesty said, I have never seen him."

Jiang Ruozhong was also on the court today. He looked at the two of them, his eyes narrowed, and he sounded like he was interrogating. "You are just a small soldier, and you managed to escape with great difficulty. Why don't you just run for your life and go back to Dadu? You don't know that Dadu is more dangerous."

?”

Everyone was convinced after hearing this, and the emperor seemed to have some doubts about this. He looked at the two men and motioned for them to answer. The two men knelt down and kowtowed. The old soldier said, "I know that most of the soldiers will not survive if they escape. But I can't survive."

When I joined the army, I heard someone say that our soldiers vowed to fight to the death for our country. It would be an honor to die under the sword of the enemy. It would be a shame to die in a power struggle and conspiracy. A soldier's life is to live for the people, and the blood of a soldier is

, I should flee for my family and my country! I know that this matter is very important, and I don’t dare to die. Therefore, I returned to Dadu and reported the truth to Your Majesty."

The emperor's eyes suddenly changed, as if he was thinking of something. He looked at the veteran and asked eagerly, "Who did you hear this from?"

Suddenly, a heartfelt respect rose on the veteran's face. "The person who called the soldiers to join the army was General Duanyi!"
