Chapter 60: Everybody's Brain-Filling
Li Lin returned to the Zheng Guogong Mansion. The house is still depressed.
She walked into the courtyard, her mood was gloomy, and Ji An suddenly strode over: "Li Lin, you hurry up and hide!" ”
"What's wrong?"
She saw the expression on Ji'an's face very anxious. For a moment, I was a little frightened, for fear of hearing some bad news.
"Is it my brother, he ......?"
Li Lin didn't dare to say the second half of the sentence at all.
Ji'an said: "Yesterday there was news from Dali Temple, saying that I had received another report letter. ”
"What whistleblower letter?"
Li Lin was nervous, but he was quietly relieved when he heard that it was not related to Li Qi.
"The letter said that when Yuanshu was sick in Dongcheng, you concealed his illness and gave him medicine!"
Li Lin looked at Ji An in astonishment,
"This...."
Seeing her reaction, Ji'an was also scared and asked, "Is there such a thing?" ”
Li Lin was in a dilemma for a while, and he didn't know where to start.
"Li Lin."
Her mother's voice called out to her, and Li Lin nervously walked to the hall. At this time, the parents were waiting there, with solemn expressions on their faces.
"Where did you go last night!?" Mother Wang asked.
"I.... Go find someone to help my brother..."
Li Lin was up and down in his heart, but he didn't know how to tell them.
"You've only been back in the capital for a few days, don't make any more trouble." The always good-natured father spoke with helplessness.
"What the hell is going on in Dongcheng? Are you giving medicine to the emperor's grandson? Mother asked her.
Li Lin lowered his head, not knowing how to answer.
Li Chengcai saw that she looked down and already knew that the situation was serious, so he slapped the table hard: "Why are you so stupid!" Is that medicine something you can take indiscriminately? ”
"That's the doctor's ......," Li Lin said confidently.
"You, nonsense......" Father shook his head.
At this time, several subordinates helped Zheng Guogong out.
In just a few days, Zheng Guogong looked like he was a few years older, and he had a very bad cough due to the cold.
"Li Lin..."Zheng Guogong beckoned.
Li Lin stepped forward and just wanted to hold on to his grandfather.
Zheng Guogong raised his wrinkled hand and slapped her hard in the face.
The parents were shocked at the same time.
"Father, what are you doing ......"
This stunned Li Lin.
I only heard Zheng Guogong's elderly voice say: "You! Go back to your border!! ”
Li Lin's eyes were already red when he looked at his grandfather.
"Father, Li Lin doesn't understand any of this, you can't blame her." Li Chengcai grabbed his elderly father.
On the side, Wang's eyes also reddened.
Zheng Guogong shed old tears, and looked at Li Lin with hatred: "When you didn't come back, everything was peaceful, and there was nothing at home, so you just stayed at the border, can't you?" Why do you have to come back? And now I hurt your brother..."
Zheng Guogong was already trembling with anger.
Hearing this, Li Lin's tears couldn't stop flowing, biting his lip and saying nothing.
Li Lin knew that what his grandfather said was right.
If she hadn't come back, there would have been no going to Dongcheng, and if she hadn't gone to Dongcheng, such a series of things wouldn't have happened.
All this cause and effect cannot shirk the responsibility by itself.
"Father, the top priority is to think about how to save Li Qi......" Li Chengcai said.
Wang echoed: "After all, Li Lin is not in the capital all the year round, so he doesn't understand this. ”
Back in the room, Li Lin locked herself in the room, she felt uncomfortable, she looked at everything empty in the room, this was obviously her home, but she didn't feel much warmth.
Dali Temple.
The third prince handed the newly received secret letter to Yuan Shu and asked him, "Is what this letter says true?" ”
Yuan Shu glanced at the anonymous letter, which said that Li Lin had assassinated Yuan Shu when he was in Dongcheng, and tricked him into drinking medicine, in a vain attempt to murder the emperor and grandson.
The third prince saw the slight change in Yuanshu's expression, "Really?" ”
"Nothing." Yuanshu denied.
He crumpled the letter, "This letter is talking nonsense. ”
After saying that, he put the letter on the candlestick and burned it.
When the third prince saw him burning the letter, he smiled: "I heard that you have a good relationship with that Li Lin, it won't be to protect her, right?" ”
Yuanshu watched as the letter was burned into black powder,
said lightly to the third prince: "If someone harms me, I will definitely not spare it, Li Qi is the main culprit in this case, it is enough to investigate him." ”
"But I don't think you're right." The third prince said with a smile.
Yuan Shu snorted: "Why bother with this letter. ”
Zhao Jun's eyes fell on the black powder, and the more he felt strange in his heart, he couldn't say what was strange.
In this short period of time, Zheng Guogong's only grandson and granddaughter were all glued to right and wrong.
This has to be strange.
I don't know who these anonymous reports come from, but I know their movements so clearly.
That's right, it must not be left to the nose.
The trial begins!
Li Qi was brought up in prison uniform.
When he saw that the three princes were sitting in the hall, he also showed a slight surprise, there was little contact between them, and he immediately guessed seven or eight points about the emperor's intentions this time.
Sitting on the left is Wang Zhi, the secretary of Dali Temple, and two young temple members behind him. Right...... It's actually the Six Princes and Yuanshu?
It's kind of funny.
Hey, only I didn't see Zhao Zhen, Li Qi's heart was a little desolate, and Zhao Zhen must be a tragedy now.
The third prince was shocked: "Li Qi knelt down, what did you do to recruit from the truth!! ”
Li Qi took a deep breath and said, "Wronged." ”
"Where's the injustice?"
"I only know that Miss Dong proposed to go back to the house that night, and I personally sent him to the door. What happened later, I don't know at all. All the doormen at that time were able to testify to me. ”
Li Qi said this unhurriedly.
The sixth prince suddenly laughed: "The people in your mansion, of course they will help you here, Miss Dong's shoes were found in your mansion..."
Before he finished speaking, he found that the third prince was staring at him, and his face was a little gloomy.
The six princes hurriedly shut up appropriately.
The third prince looked at him with a smile and emphasized gently: "I am the chief judge. ”
At this time, a temple priest handed over the confession that had just been sorted out and reported: "The several princes who attended the banquet that night can indeed prove that Miss Dong left at the end of the year, and no one has seen whether she will return to the Zhengguo Mansion after that." ”
The Third Prince nodded.
Li Qi defended: "My lord, if you want to say that I committed a crime, I have no motive. ”
"That's not easy to say, you have a close relationship with her, and the closer you are, the more suspicious you are."
The third prince smiled: "In case you get drunk and promiscuous, and regret it afterwards." ”
"I have never been malicious to him, and Dong Xiaowan and I have been married before." Li Qi said.
The third prince immediately corrected him: "This makes more sense!" It is precisely because you are married and withdrawn that Miss Dong's actions make you hold a grudge, so you are waiting for an opportunity to take revenge! ”
Hehe...... Li Qi was speechless for a while.
The third prince said that this thing did happen before, when a big young lady quit the marriage and fell into the middle of the family, the scholar hurt her with a grudge.
This incident has caused quite a stir in the capital, and it is not a wild speculation.
Li Qi had to smile helplessly, sighed and said:
"I went back to my room to rest less than an hour after Dong Xiaowan left, it's really ......"
