Chapter 369: Betrayal
Prime Minister Lin watched Imperial Physician Liu leave, his eyes flashed with a cold light.
He knew that the emperor was suspicious by nature, and if he just pretended to be sick, then the emperor would definitely let people find out.
Fortunately, he took a cold shower last night and sat in the yard by himself for most of the night.
escaped the emperor's inspection, and almost half of his old life, his body was not as good as when he was young, just such a wind and cold, he was allowed to lie in bed for seven or eight days, which was considered better.
At this time, the eldest prince and Lin Guifei did not dare to act rashly, it was a matter of their lives, and if they made a mistake, they would be doomed.
Shizi listened to the report of the person who came, and sneered,
"Heh, Lin Chongwen, this old fox, since this is the case, let's make things bigger again, and throw these evidences in front of the third prince by the way."
After Shangguan Feng finished speaking, he directly threw the things in his hand to Gao Ping:
"Be natural, don't let people get the hang of it."
The next day, an official presented a series of incriminating evidence made by Prime Minister Lin to the emperor, and the emperor looked at the evidence in front of him, his face was extremely gloomy:
"Lin Aiqing, do you know what is written on this?"
When Prime Minister Lin heard the emperor's roll call, his heart went up and down, although he didn't know what was going on, but it wouldn't be a good thing after all? !
"Back to the emperor, the old minister is stupid and doesn't know."
"Hehe, I don't know?! Have you forgotten what you've done over the years? ”
The emperor sat in a high position, even if Prime Minister Lin Cheng was really sick, but he still did not dispel his suspicions.
The main reason is that the appearance of the Prime Minister's Mansion by the eldest prince is too timely, and Lin Chongwen's illness is too coincidental.
Lin Chongwen hurriedly knelt on the ground, looking sincerely frightened:
"Your Majesty, the ministers are stupid, please make it clear to the emperor."
"Then take a good look at it yourself."
The emperor threw the things to Lin Chongwen, Lin Chongwen picked them up from the ground, just a glance, Lin Chongwen felt cold all over the body, how could these things be turned out?
Didn't he already destroy his body at that time?
The more I looked down, the more frightened I became, everything he did on it was very detailed, even the date was clearly written.
"Looks like you're going to remember."
"Your Majesty, Wechen was wronged, Wechen didn't do these things.
Someone must have wronged Weichen, it must be like this. ”
"Oh? So who do you think will wronged you?! ”
The emperor suddenly had a hint of interest on his face, he wanted to see what Lin Chongwen could say.
"The minister doesn't know, but the minister has never done these things, and someone must have wronged the minister."
Prime Minister Lin really wanted to pull the third prince into the water, but it was not the wisest choice to do so.
"Since you don't know, then I'll call someone to help you remember your memories."
After a while, someone was brought up, and when Prime Minister Lin saw that person, his face turned dead gray.
Xu Dong, the butler of the Prime Minister's Mansion, is not only a housekeeper, but also his confidant.
Everything he did passed through Xu Dong's hands, and it could even be said that it was his secret, Xu Dong knew it.
"Xu Dong, you ......"
Xu Dong glanced at Prime Minister Lin Cheng with an expressionless face:
"Master, all the things we did have been revealed, and I don't dare to hide anything in front of the emperor."
"Xu Dong, are you crazy again?! What do we do?! Are you babbling gibberish again? ”
Prime Minister Lin Cheng decided not to admit it to death, and see what he can do? !
"It seems that Lin Aiqing doesn't shed tears when she doesn't see the coffin, since that's the case, then bring Lin Wei over."
Prime Minister Lin Cheng's body stiffened after hearing this, Lin Wei was his righteous son, because he valued him very much, so even the surname "Lin" was given to him.
Now, how could it be?
Lin Wei was quickly brought up, and when he saw Prime Minister Lin Cheng looking at him with angry eyes, he lowered his head and didn't dare to look at him.
"The grass people see the emperor."
"Well, you say what you told me before, let Lin Aiqing listen to it well, and see if he did those things?!"
"Five years ago, my father-in-law accidentally discovered a gold mine on the barren mountain on the outskirts of the city, so he directly ordered someone to look at it and did not report it to the imperial court......"
Listening to what Lin Wei said, Lin Cheng angrily spit out a mouthful of blood, and then fainted.
The emperor looked coldly at Prime Minister Lin Cheng who fainted,
"Bring people down to me."
"Report."
As soon as someone left with Prime Minister Lin and them, someone entered the main hall.
"Report to the emperor, ten miles away from the city gate, I found that there were soldiers and horses gathered, and they came straight to the city gate, and the leader was the eldest prince."
The emperor glanced at the position of the eldest prince, and sure enough, there was no one at all at this moment, and the green muscles on his forehead kept jumping.
This rebel really did such a rebellious thing.
"Father-in-law Li, you go and arrange it."
As early as when the emperor suspected the eldest prince, he had already made arrangements, in order to prevent this situation from happening one day.
After all, the gold mines were more or less reclaimed, and he was thinking at that time that if it was really done by a few princes, then the biggest purpose of their gold mines was likely to be to recruit troops.
Sure enough, today, I really met it.
Compared with the panic of the civil and military officials, the emperor was not worried at all, and the plan he had made was to wait for those traitors to fall into the net.
Prime Minister Lin woke up leisurely in prison, saw the environment he was in, and thought of all this, and a mouthful of blood spurted out.
He had been planning this matter for so long, but because of the housekeeper and Lin Wei, he didn't even have a chance to resist, and he had already lost everything.
"Father-in-law, how are you?!"
Lin Wei's voice sounded in his ears, and Prime Minister Lin noticed that it was Lin Wei in the cell next to him.
Immediately he struggled to his feet and walked there, his eyes full of hatred:
"Lin Wei, I don't have a son like you, I have regarded you as my own son for so many years, and this is how you repay me?!
I was really blind, saved you, and brought you into the house, but I didn't expect that I would raise a white-eyed wolf with an upset stomach. ”
"Father-in-law, listen to me."
"Bah, don't call me my father-in-law anymore, from the moment you betrayed me, we have been cut off from each other.
I see you now, and I want to eat your flesh and drink your blood. ”
Lin Wei looked at his father-in-law, who was extremely hostile to him, sat down decadently, looked at the cell with a blank face, and said in a snort:
"Father-in-law, I can't help it, you can't blame me, they threatened me with my beloved girl, I can't help it.
Father-in-law, it's true that I can't live up to you, it's me who has failed your kindness for so many years, and I deserve to die. ”
Speaking of this, Lin Wei's eyes burst out with a firmness:
"Father-in-law, I'll go first, and when I get to the Netherworld, I'll continue to compensate you."
After speaking, he slammed directly into the wall, Prime Minister Lin looked at all this coldly, and there was no trace of turmoil in his heart.
