Mei Cangyun frowned, thinking about how to get rid of the impact of this matter on him. But he also knows very well that no matter what the result is, even if he keeps the Prime Minister's Mansion safe and retains the status of the Prime Minister, it is impossible for the emperor to trust him as before.

The so-called crack does not have to be based on facts, as long as there is the slightest suspicion, this crack will get bigger and bigger, and one day it will be broken into pieces. Most importantly, he has a weak heart. Although he didn't have any idea of collaborating with the enemy and treason, he stretched out his hand into Beiyan and planted his eyes and ears in the Zhenyuan army, and he had no room for justification for this. Especially at this time, Fang Xiaoyu found out all the people he had planted in the Zhenyuan Army, and escorted them all into Beijing, and now they were all brought into this hall, looking at the emperor's gloomy face, Mei Cangyun's heart beat and jumped.

"Mei Aiqing, do you have anything to say?" The emperor's face changed again and again and suddenly regained his calmness, and in a short sentence at this moment, his emotions did not fluctuate a little, but because of this, Mei Cangyun felt frightened.

has been the prime minister for so many years, and he knows the emperor's joys and angers well. Because of this, the emperor can trust him very much. However, everything that was painstakingly managed was ruined because of the rumors released by Fang Xiaoyu.

Mei Cangyun is struggling. Should you deny it altogether, or should you admit it? Because he didn't know how much the emperor knew and how much he trusted.

If in the past, the emperor trusted him a lot, and at first hearing the rumors, I am afraid that he would be a little suspicious, but now, he is not sure of his status in the emperor's mind, because Fang Xiaoyu was born.

The messenger of the Buddha in the world, this kind of thing is no less than nonsense to him, but it is completely different for people like the emperor who believe in Buddhism. The important thing is that although he didn't believe that Fang Xiaoyu really could be a Buddha girl, he couldn't explain what she had predicted in advance.

"The emperor forgives the sins. Lao Chen did place chess pieces in the Zhenyuan army, just because Lao Chen was confused for a while, thinking that if this was the case, he could make the family prosperous. You can ask the emperor to trust the old minister, even though the old minister has done something wrong, he has never thought of betraying the emperor and betraying the great inheritance! Mei Cangyun knelt on the ground and wept bitterly.

Eventually, he admitted it. Because he thought that he might not be able to hide it from the emperor. Fang Xiaoyu has been back in Beijing for a while, and it is rumored that she has found evidence to prove that he collaborated with the enemy and treason, but the emperor did find him and scolded him, but he did not punish him for a long time, and only scolded him a few times, but stayed in the court today to let Fang Xiaoyu publicly correct him.

He thought, for such a long time, the emperor must have gone to investigate his matter, he left a lot of eyeliner in the Zhenyuan Army, and the emperor has a Shenlong Guard behind him, so he can't hide it if he wants to. Even so, it is better to admit it generously, at most it is better to be suspected by the emperor, than to be debunked by the emperor after denying it, and finally affect the family.

"Mei Cangyun, as the prime minister, you are also my old minister, I ask myself if I treat you well, but what have you done!" The emperor's eyes swept sharply over Mei Cangyun, who was kneeling on the ground, and the confession handed over by Fang Xiaoyu in his hand was thrown in front of Mei Cangyun.

"The emperor forgives the sins. The old minister was confused for a while, but the old minister really didn't have the intention of rebellion, please ask the emperor to learn from it. Mei Cangyun almost lay on the ground, he was ruthless enough to himself, kowtowed to the bruises on his forehead, and showed a good confession attitude towards meddling in the Zhenyuan army, but repeatedly denied the accusation of collaborating with the enemy and treason.

"Your Majesty, Prime Minister Mei is lying! As the prime minister of the dynasty, he interfered in military affairs, just to make the family more prosperous? He is already the head of a hundred officials, and the emperor trusts him a lot, as long as he doesn't rebel, why shouldn't the Mei family be happy? But he interfered in military affairs without authorization, could it be that he didn't trust the emperor? Fang Xiaoyu sneered and glanced at Mei Cangyun, who was kneeling on the ground, but her eyes were fierce, and continued: "What's more, according to the investigation of the courtiers, the Prime Minister not only interfered in military affairs, but also had contact with the fox wolf grassland. Before the Fox Wolf Grassland returned to the Great Inheritance, the Prime Minister helped the Fox Wolf Grassland assassins hide in the Baoxiang Mountain. When the prince was assassinated, the assassins of the fox wolf grassland were a few people hidden by the prime minister in Baoxiang Mountain, and the courtiers had heard Mei Chunshui who had died mention this matter. After interrogation, the demon man was one of the twelve incense masters of the cult, and he confessed to the crime in fear because he witnessed the manifestation of the Buddha, and confessed to the crime in fear, among them, his testimony mentioned that he had accidentally overheard the dialogue between the hall master and the Taoist master, and said that the mastermind behind the cult was Mei Cangyunmei, the prime minister of the dynasty. After the courtiers heard about it, they were afraid that the demon of the cult had wronged Prime Minister Mei, so they personally arrested the hall master and the Taoist master in the mouth of the incense master, and after interrogation, the two also confessed to the matter. ”

Fang Xiao snorted coldly and continued: "Prime Minister Mei not only has close ties with the Quicksand Country in private, but also hid the assassins of the fox wolf grassland and instructed him to assassinate His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the Second Prince. And Prime Minister Mei Cheng knew that the emperor hated it, but he still interfered in military affairs, and now he has established a cult, preaching everywhere, instigating the people to resent the court, and greatly belittling Buddhism and Taoism, alarmism, and creating panic. ”

As soon as Fang Xiaoyu's voice fell, there was a sudden sound of inhalation in the court.

Everyone looked at each other's laughter a little differently. This woman, if you want to say ruthless, it is really ruthless. Not only did all the faults of the battle of the quicksand country be placed on Prime Minister Mei's head, but in this way, at the beginning, the several defeats of the Zhenyuan army completely cleared Fang Jianzhang. Fang Jianzhang is a general of Northern Yan, and the defeat of the war is not only not his fault, but he has also become a victim. In addition, this Fang Xiaoyu also has some ability, a trip to Beiyan, and really won this battle, although they feel that most of the credit is still on several deputy generals of Beiyan, and feel that Fang Xiaoyu is just lucky, which has made a lot of credit, but I have to say that Fang Xiaoyu's move is very good, otherwise Zhenyuan's army lost several times before Fang Jianzhang went to Beiyan, even if it is not under the command of Fang Jianzhang, as a general, he must also take responsibility. But being stirred up by Fang Xiaoyu like this, Fang Jianzhang was not guilty at all, but the emperor might have to reward him to comfort the army.

Pity Prime Minister Mei Cheng is unlucky, and he wants to carry this black pot to death. In particular, he personally admitted that he interfered in military affairs, which was hated by the emperor the most. This alone completely shifted the topic of the defeat of the Zhenyuan army several times, and the matter was passed over in one fell swoop. The emperor didn't mention it again, the matter was almost in the past, not only did he not need to be punished, because later he made the conviction, not only won the war with the quicksand country, but also gave the nest of the quicksand country in one fell swoop, such a big credit, in the end, it was all Fang Xiaoyu and Fang Jianzhang.

And it was not enough to blame Mei Cangyun for the Battle of Beiyan, in order to wipe out the net, the problem of this cult was also pushed to Mei Cangyun.

If this cult was really founded by Mei Cangyun, they really didn't believe it.

There should always be a reason for establishing a cult, so what's the point of Mei Cangyun doing such a thing? Once someone is caught, it is difficult for his family to survive. What's more, the mastermind behind the scenes is such a big thing, how could the hall master and the Taoist master say it so easily, and it happened to be heard by a incense master, and this incense master happened to be caught by Fang Xiaoyu, all these coincidences sounded with a strong intention.

However, there is no need for any substantive evidence, just push the cult on Mei Cangyun. Because they have no evidence to prove that the mastermind behind this cult is not Mei Cangyun.

Fang Xiaoyu at least caught a master of the incense hall, and with the testimony of these people, there was still a little credibility to some extent. But how can Mei Cangyun prove that she is innocent?

Also catch a cult demon to prove that he is not the godfather behind the scenes? If there is really a cult demon who testifies to him, I am afraid that he will be even more guilty of being the ancestor behind the scenes. And if no one testifies, but there is no way to prove that Fang Xiaoyu's words were deliberately framed. Mei Cangyun is afraid that she has met an opponent this time.

Mei Cangyun naturally thought of this, so she retorted: "Your Majesty, how can the old minister be the godfather behind the cult demon? The old minister is full of loyalty, and he never dares to have any disloyalty to the emperor. This cult and demons are rampant in the capital, and the demons confuse the people, and the old ministers resent them before they are enough, how can they be in the same league with them? The smile was clearly to wronged the old minister, and the so-called master of the incense hall was just her words. Who knows if she found people by herself and instructed those people to wronged the minister! ”

Saying that, Mei Cangyun said to the emperor with a resentful face: "Your Majesty, this party laughs so badly that she can't look down on the old minister, and she actually uses such means to frame the old minister, she really has the heart of disobedience, and wants to get rid of the loyal old minister, and then confuse the saint, please don't fall for this woman!" ”

Mei Cangyun's face was full of grief and indignation, that kind of anger seemed to come from the heart, her forehead was covered with green tendons, her face was flushed, and she kowtowed vigorously.

Fang Xiaoyu sneered and said, "Prime Minister Mei, do you think that the emperor is a faint king?" The emperor is wise and martial, how can he be confused by a little woman? If everything I said was not true, how could the emperor easily doubt a loyal courtier? Prime Minister, why doesn't the emperor suspect the other ministers of the palace? ”

"You're using strong words!" Mei Cangyun's distorted and cruel face was facing Fang Xiaoyu, he especially wanted to pounce on it and strangle this woman who was so stubborn!

Fang Xiaoyu ignored Mei Cangyun's resentment, and instead arched his hand to the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, the courtiers are not accusing the prime minister for no reason. If it weren't for the conclusive evidence, how could a courtier's daughter dare to judge the crime of a country's prime minister? But the courtiers not only got the confession of the cult demon, but also got the testimony of another person, this person is very familiar with the prime minister, and it is impossible to be bought by the courtier, but this person knows about this by chance, and he can't see that the prime minister actually has the intention of rebellion, so he struggled several times, and still mentioned the matter with the courtier. This person just asked that after the truth of the matter was revealed, the emperor could spare his life. The courtiers are also willing to plead with the emperor on his behalf, and it is rare that he is willing to kill his relatives in righteousness. Ask the emperor to pardon this person's crime. ”

"Oh? Laughing girl still has witnesses? Bring him up, and I will interrogate him myself. As long as he is loyal to Dacheng, I will pardon him for his innocence. The emperor had a calm face, and looked at Mei Cangyun with murderous intent.

"The courtiers thanked the emperor." Fang said with a smile.

Immediately, Father-in-law Xia took the person in Fang Xiaoyu's mouth to the court.

This person was still a little nervous when he went to the court for the first time, with his identity, he was not qualified to face the saint on weekdays, let alone go to the court. Although he got the identity he wanted, he was still a white body and had no official position.

He accepted Fang Xiaoyu's conditions, and when he was waiting for the summons outside the door, he was still struggling and wavering in his heart, but in the end, he still firmed up what he wanted in his heart, and came here according to what Fang Xiaoyu said.

"Grass people Fang Zifeng, knock on the emperor, long live my emperor." The person who came knelt down and did not dare to raise his head.

"Is that you?" At this time, it was Mei Cangyun's turn to be surprised. He never expected that the last person to testify against him would be him.

"Who's in the hall?" The Emperor asked.

"Back to the emperor, the grass people's name is Fang Zifeng, and he is the righteous son who passed on to General Fang. Caomin's mother was Mei, who was the second wife of General Fang. The grass people were originally known as Zhou Zifeng. Zhou Zifeng didn't dare to raise his head, and he trembled a little as he spoke.

"Fang Aiqing's second wife?" The emperor frowned and said, "If I remember correctly, Fang Aiqing's second wife is the daughter of Prime Minister Mei, so in this way, aren't you the grandson of Prime Minister Mei?" ”

"Go back to the emperor. Caomin is indeed the grandson of Prime Minister Mei. Zhou Zifeng buried his head lower.

"Oh?" The emperor showed an intriguing expression and said, "Since you are the grandson of Prime Minister Mei, why do you want to stand up and testify against your grandfather?" ”

"Your Majesty, the grass people are first the subjects of Dacheng, and then the grandson of Prime Minister Mei." Zhou Zifeng is righteous and awe-inspiring.

"Well, you're good." The emperor seemed to be very satisfied with Zhou Zifeng's answer, praised him twice, and then asked, "How do you testify against Prime Minister Mei?" ”

When Zhou Zifeng heard the emperor's praise, he was overjoyed, so he said: "Back to the emperor, the grass people once inadvertently learned about their ancestors...... Prime Minister Mei Cheng met with the cult demon, so he hid in the dark and eavesdropped under curiosity. Prime Minister Mei consulted with the demon to create a miracle of God's dissatisfaction with the emperor, instigating the people to oppose the court, and the prime minister also raised a rebel army, and when the time was right, he raised the flag to rebel, and wanted to use this matter to fight against Buddhism and Taoism, they had a detailed plan. ”

"You're full of nonsense!" Mei Cangyun was almost not. This is his grandson! Although he has never valued this grandson very much, he spared no effort to help him control the Zhenyuan General's Mansion. If it weren't for the eldest princess marrying Fang Jianzhang, I am afraid that she would have been on the verge of succeeding at this time, but she didn't expect that he would raise a white-eyed wolf, and he would be easily bought by Fang Xiaoyu to testify against him, his own grandfather!
