"Son, look at what good things you have done!" He shouted angrily.
As soon as the crown prince saw this situation, he immediately knelt down, "Father, the son doesn't know what he has done wrong, and he asks his father to make it clear." ā
The emperor looked at him and sneered, "What did you do wrong?" You've done more than one and a half wrong! ā
As he spoke, he threw the fold in front of him in front of the prince with one hand, "See for yourself!" Look what you're doing! ā
The crown prince Zhao Jing often opened his hand and caught the twist thrown by the emperor.
He opened one casually, only to see that it was written, "Your Majesty is gifted and decisive, wise and insightful, can be Yao, Shun, Yu, Tang, Wen, Wu, such as Han Xuan's strong essence, Guangwu's generosity, Tang Taizong's heroic and invincible, Xianzong's Zhiping is chaotic, Song Ren's benevolence and forgiveness are desirable, Your Majesty is preferred." In the early years of his reign, he eradicated the accumulated shortcomings and changed his life with the world. However, the prince is cruel and unscrupulous, relying on him as the prince of the country, doing things unscrupulously, turbidity and chaos, framing loyal and virtuous people, and the ministers dare to list their crimes, for His Majesty.
Daxing County ordered Fan Li to be loyal and virtuous, and did his best for the country and the people, the prince connived at his subordinate Yan Weixian to insult his daughter and forced his daughter to commit suicide by throwing herself into the river, Fan Li appealed with tears, and the prince used his power without authority, shielded his subordinates, and suppressed loyal ministers......"
There were so many twists and turns like this, the prince panicked, and he opened another one, and the other one also said that in order to keep his subordinates, he suppressed Zhongliang and bullied the king.
He hurriedly glanced at it a few times, then opened another one.
This one says that he embezzled a huge amount of disaster funds during the disaster relief and brought disaster to the country and the people because of his own selfishness......
"Father......" The prince threw down the fold in his hand and said in a panic, "Father, you have to believe your sons, these are all ...... they made up to frame your sons."
"Fart!" The emperor said angrily, "So many people are making up and framing you together? Even now you don't know how to repent! How the hell did I give birth to your son! ā
"Father, you have wronged your son......"
"Wronged you? Hum! The emperor snorted coldly, "Meng Bishun, you come and tell him whether I have wronged him!" ā
Meng Bishun bowed his hand and said, "According to the minister's investigation, Daxing County ordered Fan Li to be dissatisfied with his daughter being bullied to death, and once wanted to go to Beijing to sue the emperor, but the prince sent people to intercept him several times, in order to make Fan Li compromise, the prince sent someone to confine his wife and children, and beat Fan Li's right foot to the disabled ......"
The more the emperor listened, the angrier he became, "Son! Son! ā
The crown prince Zhao Jingchang became more and more frightened, "Father, the minister didn't know about this, I didn't do it." ā
Meng Bishun continued, "His Royal Highness the Prince, this official has brought Fan Li and Yan Wei outside the palace first, can His Highness confront them one by one?" ā
The prince looked up at Meng Bishun fiercely, only to see that Meng Bishun had no expression on his face, just a businesslike look, and he was not afraid to see him.
"Humph! Bring Yan Wei to me first! The Emperor said coldly.
Yan Wei was first the son of Yan Hao, the secretary of the ministry, and now although he is only a petty official in the Ministry of Industry, he has a close relationship with the prince, and in private, Yan Hao is also the prince's wing.
Yan Wei knelt down as soon as he came in, not daring to look up at the prince at all.
"Yan Weixian!" The emperor looked at Yan Weixian with cold eyes, and asked him, "Tell me, is what Meng Bishun said true?" ā
"Yes, yes." Yan Weixian is only promised, "The minister is guilty, and the minister must know everything and say nothing......
"Yan Weixian!" The crown prince suddenly glared at him, and said with a warning, "You can think clearly!" ā
The Emperor was furious, "Son! He was so presumptuous in front of me! Do you really think I'm blind and deaf?! Come on, plug the prince's mouth! ā
Zhao Jingchang never imagined that the emperor would gag him in front of so many people, how could this save his face?
"Father......" He still wanted to argue, but his mouth was blocked with a white cloth by the soldiers standing nearby, and he couldn't speak.
"Alright, you can speak!" After dealing with the crown prince, the emperor said to Yan Wei first.
Looking at the high emperor, Yan Weixian was extremely frightened, he knelt on the ground and trembled, "Yes, yes......"
After Yan Weixian's confession, he did fall in love with Fan Li's daughter, but Fan Li's daughter would rather die than obey, and was finally forced to death by him.
Originally, he thought that this Fan Li was a petty official, and it was not a pity for him to die as a woman, his original intention was to give Fan Li some money and let him rest quiet, but who would have thought that Fan Li was a person who loved his daughter like his life, and his daughter died, and he was desperate to find justice for his daughter.
In order to find justice for his daughter, he took a lot of excerpts, and wanted to join Yan Weixian and Yan Hao, but before these folds reached the emperor, they were stopped.
Later, Fan Li united with the prefect of the neighboring county to tell Yan Weixian, and after Yan Weixian knew about it, he told the prince about it, and the prince waved his hand and said, "What should he do with such a petty official?" Then at the direction of the crown prince, Yan Wei first arrested Fan Li's wife and children, imprisoned them, and beat Fan Li's right foot to cripple, and warned him that if he dared to sue again, he would be punished by the nine clans.
Yan Weixian's crime was extremely evil, but as his backer, the prince was also unforgivable.
The Emperor looked up to the sky and sighed, "How could I have given birth to such a son as you!" ā
And that's not the most important thing.
"Your Majesty, in the nineteenth year of Jian'an, the prince embezzled disaster relief funds, causing countless deaths and injuries to the people of Henan, digging grass roots, eating tree bark, and even worse, killing his parents and eating his flesh......"
Meng Bishun was still talking, and the emperor's face became more and more gloomy.
"O son of a! How can you do such a crazy thing?! The emperor was furious and threw an ink inkstone on the dragon case on the prince's head with one hand.
The ink inkstone was made of crystal, and the emperor threw it on the prince's forehead in anger, and the prince did not dare to dodge, so he knelt there and suffered this blow raw, and was immediately thrown to the head and bleeding, and he did not dare to snort, and the blood stains flowed down his forehead.
At this moment, Song Yu, who had been standing next to him without humming, suddenly spoke.
"Your Majesty, the minister still has something to report." Song Yu said.
"Say!"
"Today, there was a fire in Beijing, and after receiving the news, Weichen went to investigate with Master Li and found that the place where the fire started was really weird." Song Yu said.
The Emperor looked at him with a frown, "How weird?" ā
"After the fire was extinguished, we conducted a careful survey, and although it was burned beyond recognition, we were surprised to find some military weapons."
When Song Yu said this, the crown prince Zhao Jingchang suddenly struggled, and his eyes were full of blood. (To be continued.) )
