Chapter 996 - Turning over old accounts
Qian Yuchun watched Emperor Yuan Cheng's face subside with anger, and his heart was in a hurry.
He had already offended the three princes in the matter of food before, and his words just now offended him to death.
If you can't get the third prince down today and give him a chance to turn over, with the means he has shown this time, he will definitely not let him go in the future!
Qian Yuchun's lips moved slightly and he wanted to step forward to speak, but he didn't expect that Huang Yu next to him suddenly spoke: "Whether the third prince is just for self-protection, the minister doesn't know, but Your Majesty, the minister doesn't know whether to say something or not." ”
Emperor Yuan Cheng looked up at Topaz.
Huang Yu said lightly: "After Ding Shangshu's accident before, when the minister and Lord Zheng searched in Ding's house, in addition to these letters, they also found an account book at the same time, which clearly recorded the amount of money Ding Ziming had secretly accumulated over the years, and the most recent one was from the second prince and the fifth prince......
Li Yunxiao and Li Wenji changed color at the same time, and they were about to defend themselves.
Topaz didn't give them a chance to speak, but directly skipped them and continued:
"This money comes from the second prince and the fifth prince, which is nearly 100,000, but the strange thing is that Ding Ziming did not collect all the money for his own use after getting this money, but instead sent more than half of the amount into the third prince's mansion."
"And the minister has already asked the Ding family's account, and the person who went to the Ding family to take the silver that day was none other than Li Yuan, a close confidant of the third prince."
"He said that he saw with his own eyes that Li Yuan had moved the silver and some valuables back to the Third Prince's Mansion, and that it was the people sent by Lord Ding who were transporting the belongings at that time, and the time when this incident happened was the night before yesterday."
Although Topaz's words were not too clear, everyone present was not stupid.
If that Li Yuan really betrayed Li Guangyan, how could he send such a large sum of money to the Three Princes' Mansion instead of swallowing it privately, and Li Yuan was doing everything with the Ding family.
If he really had the intention of harming Li Guangyan, as long as he did something from it, how could the Ding family and the Three Princes' Mansion get along peacefully?
Could it be that he was still loyal to Li Guangyan the night before yesterday, and he poisoned him last night, and he chose the same time as Ding Ziming's assassination? !
Emperor Yuan Cheng's face, which had just been relieved, became gloomy again.
Li Guangyan's face stiffened slightly.
Only then did he suddenly remember that Li Yuan had told him last night that he had divided tens of thousands of taels of silver from Ding Ziming and brought them back to the mansion.
Li Guangyan finally understood why he felt something was wrong when he heard Li Yuan talk about this matter before, but at this time, it was too late for anything.
He was thinking about how to explain it in order to get out, but he didn't expect that Topaz continued:
"In addition, there is one more thing, does Your Majesty remember Jiang Qingping?"
Li Guangyan's heart skipped a beat when he heard Jiang Qingping's name, and his face changed greatly.
Huang Yuwan opened his mouth and said: "When Jiang Qingping was detained in Dali Temple for murdering Donglin Xiangjun and Mrs. Meng, does Your Majesty remember?" ”
Emperor Yuan Cheng's eyes completely darkened.
Remember.
How could he not remember this?
At that time, if Jiang Qingping hadn't been imprisoned by Dali Temple because of this incident, there would have been no later opening of the court trial of Huang Yu, and there would have been no later open court trial, and King Chen would not have been implicated.
