I didn't sleep well for a few days in my hometown, and I was worried and couldn't sleep all night.

The disappearance of 300,000 taels of silver weighed heavily on her chest like a huge stone, just thinking that this matter would implicate Lie Chang'an, she was out of breath.

Sosato tried to figure out how she could help with this.

Early the next morning, the palace really sent guards to summon Lie Chang'an to take Pei Song into the palace.

Pei Song has been locked up in the firewood room for the past few days, although the food and drink were sent in by Lie Chang'an's orders, but he was still disgraced and looked very embarrassed.

The palace guards did not come with bracelets and shackles, obviously the emperor still looked at Lie Chang'an's face and did not directly conclude Pei Song as a 'criminal', but he was still escorted into the palace by the three guards who followed him.

On the top of the main hall, the emperor in a bright yellow dragon robe sat on the main seat, his momentum was not angry but mighty, and the civil and military officials on both sides had been waiting for a long time.

Lie Chang'an was in a calm mood from beginning to end, his face was as usual, and he calmly stepped into the main hall.

"Weichen see the emperor."

Lie Chang'an first bowed without humility or arrogance.

Pei Song also knelt behind him and saluted.

The emperor's face was angry, and he said in a deep voice, "General Chang'an, all the ministers of the court and the central government have played an impeachment in the past few days, saying that 300,000 taels of silver in the funds for building the moat have disappeared, but is there such a thing?" ”

Lie Chang'an bowed his head and said, "Yes." ”

The emperor's face suddenly sank, and he scolded, "Lie Chang'an! How daring! How dare you ignore Gu Zhen's trust in you and do such a bold thing! You say, what crime are you to blame?! "First Chinese Network

"Father."

When the prince heard this, he immediately stood up and replied, "Erchen thinks that there must be another hidden reason in this matter, after all, General Chang'an has been an official for so many years, and the government and the opposition know that he is an honest and honest official, and he will definitely not be able to do such a thing to enrich his own pockets, and Erchen thinks that maybe he can give General Chang'an a little time to find out the reason." ”

Although the emperor's face was silent, his face was obviously softened.

Zhou Siyuan stood behind Dingguo Gong and saw this scene, and sneered in his heart, the father and son sang a double reed, so blatantly 'go through the back door' to Lie Chang'an, he was not as good as they wanted.

After all, this was the opportunity he had been waiting for, how could he miss it so easily?

"Your Majesty."

Zhou Siyuan took a step forward and said, "Weichen feels that this matter needs to be adjudicated as soon as possible, since General Chang'an and his personal servants are on this hall today, they can just confront him face to face and get to the bottom of this matter." ”

The emperor was unhappy in his heart, thinking to himself why Si Yuan was so ignorant of the holy will this week, but he also understood that he must have known, but he was just pretending to be confused.

It seems that Si Yuan is really worried about marrying his hometown to Lie Chang'an this week, so he is-for-tat with Lie Chang'an everywhere.

However, since these words have been clearly stated, it is impossible for the emperor not to give an explanation in front of the civil and military officials.

The emperor looked at Pei Song, who was kneeling on the ground, and said coldly, "I heard that one of the keys in the treasury of the Liefu has always been kept by you, so is the 300,000 taels of silver that disappeared related to you?" ”

Pei Song raised his head, his eyes were firm and sincere, "The grass people don't know, this matter has nothing to do with the grass people." ”

The Emperor frowned, his eyes narrowing slightly, clearly doubting the truth of his words.

But his eyes were open, and he was looked directly at by the dignified Ninety-Five, and he was not panicked and fearless at all, which made the emperor a little impressed.
