This is so good, Zhao Chen is so full that he comes to ask for forgiveness?
The emperor immediately thought of Li Ruoshuang being sent to Sichuan and Wu.
But Yuan Tiangang and the emperor reported it, and there was no evidence to prove that it was Hou Junji who did it.
Now that Zhao Chen has come to apologize, he has done something to Hou Junji, right?
Looking at Hou Junji, who had not yet passed the ceremony, the emperor had already made a lot of guesses in his mind.
"Your Majesty, Duke Zhao came to plead guilty. Could it be that he has something to do with General Hou?" Fang Xuanling was very sensitive to the seriousness of this matter.
Today, Hou Jun was originally here to confirm with the emperor the wedding date of his youngest daughter and the prince.
Hou Junji should have come to Tai Chi Hall early.
But until now...
In addition, at this time, Zhao Chen suddenly came to apologize, and Fang Xuanling would not think about the bad side of the matter without seeing him.
Hou Junji belongs to the prince, otherwise he would not marry his daughter to Li Chengqian.
Li Chengqian and Zhao Chen are not going to deal with each other, so it is only natural for Zhao Chen to deal with Hou Junji.
In Fang Xuanling's mind, all kinds of situations came to mind at once.
"Let him in!" The emperor did not answer Fang Xuanling's words, but waved Zhao Chen in.
The officials standing in the court turned around at this moment.
Then they saw Zhao Chen entering the Tai Chi Hall slowly and slowly, stopping in the middle of the Tai Chi Hall, cupping hands with the emperor and saying, "I pay my respects to your Majesty."
"Zhao Chen, you are so good, tell me what crime you plead guilty to and what happened!" The emperor looked at Zhao Chen and asked.
Zhao Chen looked calm, and the emperor could not see anything.
It’s not like he did anything that had too big an impact!
Fang Xuanling, Changsun Wuji and others all looked at Zhao Chen with doubts in their hearts.
Okay, why did Zhao Chen take the initiative to come over and confess?
Li Chengqian stood at the head of the queue, his eyes wandering on Zhao Chen.
Yesterday Hou Junji told him that the incident against Li Ruoshuang failed.
At that time, Li Chengqian was worried whether this matter would be exposed.
If Zhao Chen knew about their dealings with Li Ruoshuang, the consequences would be...
Li Chengqian glanced at Changsun Wuji and saw him shaking his head.
"Your Majesty, Cai Chen accidentally threw the new type of thunder into the sedan chair of General Hou Junji on his way to court..."
"What!" The emperor was startled by Zhao Chen's words at that time, and everyone jumped up from the dragon couch.
"Hang Tian Lei, is it lost in General Hou's sedan chair?"
"Is this a joke?"
"That was a thunderbolt with great destructive power. Why was it thrown into General Hou's sedan chair?"
"Is this accidental? Is it intentional?"
"The thunderous thunder has been thrown in, so General Hou..."
Not only the emperor, but also all the ministers and officials were shocked by Zhao Chen's words.
This lie is a bit too big.
Who would accidentally put Hong Tianlei on himself, and who would accidentally blow up Hou Junji's sedan chair?
Everyone in Li Chengqian was stunned.
Zhao Chen used the thunder to blow up Hou Junji?
Li Chengqian had also seen the power of the thunder from the sky in Chang'an City.
After being blown up by thunder, Hou Junji was afraid that he could not even piece together his body.
Hou Junji died like this?
Li Chengqian suddenly felt extremely frightened.
Zhao Chen dared to kill even Hou Junji, so if he, the prince, cornered Zhao Chen, wouldn't it be...
Changsun Wuji swallowed his saliva with great difficulty.
He knew that Zhao Chen must know about Li Ruoshuang.
Maybe Zhao Chen didn't have direct evidence, but even so, Zhao Chen just had suspicions, so he used thunder to take Hou Junji away?
This is too...
Changsun Wuji felt powerless for the first time in so many years.
The man in front of me really had no scruples at all.
Li Shimin muttered, and the corners of his mouth twitched twice.
He knew that Zhao Chen would not easily forget what happened yesterday, but thinking about it, he really couldn't find any evidence.
I thought Zhao Chen would also endure it.
Who knew that Hou Junji would be blown up with a thunderbolt?
Is this okay?
"Hou...Hou Junji was captured by you..."
"Your Majesty, I request that Zhao Chen, Duke of Wannian County, be executed." Before the emperor could finish his words, he saw a group of officials coming to the door of Tai Chi Hall.
The leader was none other than Hou Junji.
At this moment, Hou Junji's face was extremely gloomy, and his eyes looking at Zhao Chen were full of hatred.
Just now, Zhao Chen was humiliating Hou Junji on Zhuque Street.
This mortal feud was finally settled.
"Mr. Chen Guo, just be fine!" Li Shimin looked at Hou Junji and felt relieved.
If Zhao Chen really killed Hou Junji.
Then he, the emperor, really has no way to favor Zhao Chen.
After all, it was Zhao Chen who came to plead guilty on his own.
Killing Hou Junji, not to mention that Zhao Chen is just a county prince now, even if his identity as the prince is revealed.
The ministers will not let him go.
Fortunately, Hou Junji is fine!
"Your Majesty, Wannian County Duke Zhao Chen ordered his students from Chang'an Academy to use siege engines and directly bulldoze a glaze shop under his command. Hundreds of glazes were smashed, and the loss amounted to tens of thousands."
"Zhao Chen also ordered Cheng Chumo, Fang Yizhi and others to kill the general and have his children's legs broken."
"My eldest son, Hou Lu, had his limbs broken by Cheng Chumo. He is now lying on the official road, wailing and waiting to die."
"Even I myself was blocked by Zhao Chen today."
"Zhao Chen threatened me with the thunderbolt, saying that what was blown up today was just my sedan. Next time, the thunderbolt will explode in my house."
"Your Majesty, I know I have offended Duke Zhao, but what Duke Zhao did today, I really..." Hou Junji knelt on the ground with a look of sadness on his face.
"Your Majesty, what Zhao Chen did was witnessed by us with our own eyes."
"Your Majesty, please deal with Zhao Chen."
"How can such people, who are so arrogant and domineering and ignore the laws of the Tang Dynasty and the laws of the country, stand with us here!"
"Your Majesty, please punish Zhao Chen!"
The officials who came with Hou Junji spoke one after another, demanding that Zhao Chen be punished.
They are also afraid in their hearts.
What Zhao Chen did today has deeply touched their bottom line.
If Zhao Chen is not punished today, then who of them will dare to raise their head in front of Zhao Chen in the future?
If Zhao Chen dares to use a thunderbolt to blow up Hou Junji's sedan chair today, he will dare to kill them tomorrow.
They even used siege engines to flatten Hou Junji's Liuli Shop?
Have the legs of all the heirs of Hou Junji's family broken?
With such arrogance and domineering behavior, how could they not worry that they would be treated the same way?
"Zhao Chen, what do you have to say?" The emperor felt as if his brain ached.
Is this something that humans do?
Use siege engines to knock down people's glazed shops?
If this matter is left alone, Hou Junji's reputation among the people will be completely ruined!
All the heirs in Hou Junji's family were ordered to have their legs broken. If Hou Junji could not take revenge, all the heirs in the Hou family would be scattered.
Who would believe a person who doesn't even dare to avenge his own children?
In addition, just now Zhao Chen blew up Hou Junji's sedan in front of all the officials.
