Zhang Guang looked at Zhao Ting, and his eyes showed coldness: "Prince, do I frame the prince and know it in my heart! I often go in and out of the Qi Palace, in order to avoid the eyes and ears of others, I enter through the corner gate in the backyard, if the emperor doesn't believe it, just send someone to ask." There is an oil and salt shop at the entrance of the alley opposite the corner door of the backyard of the Qi Wangfu, and the shopkeeper of the shop must be able to testify for the ministers, and the ministers often go in and out of the Qi Wangfu, all in order to report the prince's recent situation to the Qi Wangfu. ”

"Zhang Guang!" Zhao Ting was shocked when he heard this, and shouted Zhang Guang's name angrily.

Hearing this, without waiting for him to speak, Emperor Yan Wen said coldly with a blue face: "Shut up!"

Zhao Ting knelt on the ground suddenly: "Father, the son is wronged, it is Zhang Guang who is framing the son, and the son feels that he did not instruct Zhang Guang to frame the prince, and the son is absolutely not." ”

"Is there any, I will break up, you don't have to forget, this is the Golden Palace, not your Qi Palace, before I open my mouth, if you dare to say another word, I will immediately behead you!"

Listening to Emperor Yan Wen's words, Zhao Ting's body shook violently, and he didn't dare to speak again.

Zhang Guang knelt on the ground at this time: "The emperor King Qi has long been disobedient, and has been thinking about how to get rid of the prince, let the ministers stay in front of the prince, looking for opportunities." The minister followed the prince for three years, but he didn't find any opportunity, so King Qi thought of a way to let the minister use his brotherly relationship with Zhang Ying to instigate Zhang Ying and his cousin Chen Yi to harm the Su family in Suzhou, and the money obtained by the Su family's murder of the Su family, and Chen Yi used the money from the Su family and Jiangnan weaving to secretly raise soldiers in Luzhou. ”

Originally, King Qi said that he would let his ministers pry Zhang Ying, and then blame the prince for this matter. Let the prince carry this black pot for us, and then we use the money to raise troops in Luzhou, and after the prince is overthrown, if the emperor does not canonize King Qi, then use the 30,000 horses in Luzhou to quietly gather in the capital, and then listen to King Qi's instructions to force the palace to let the emperor take the throne to King Qi. And after the matter was completed, the vassal protector general, the minister listened to the instructions of King Qi and deceived the prince to go to Luzhou. Zhang Guang kept his head down as he spoke, as if he had let it go.

Originally, all these ministers were according to King Qi's orders, so when Zhang Ying's incident happened, the ministers just hid aside. But he didn't expect that King Qi was afraid of Zhang Ying's affairs, which was not enough to bring down His Royal Highness the Prince, so he had to pull the ministers out. He thought that if the emperor learned that the prince was secretly raising troops, he would be furious, and maybe he would kill the prince directly because of the prince's rebellion. When the time comes, he will have no worries at all. ”

Zhang Guang raised his head as he spoke, but he didn't dare to look at Emperor Yan Wen, just stared at the steps in front of him: "It's just that in this way, the ministers will also be put to death by Ling Chi, and even endanger their families." The minister didn't expect that he would take such a big risk for King Qi, but King Qi could push the minister out so easily. Since King Qi is so ruthless, the minister has nothing to help him hide, the minister knows that he is committing a capital crime, and he does not dare to ask the emperor to spare his life, but only asks the emperor to spare the minister's family for the sake of the minister being used by King Qi. ”

As he spoke, he slammed his head on the ground.

After hearing this, Emperor Yan Wen's face turned pale, and he looked at Zhao Ting, his eyes were like a layer of frost, which made people shudder.

"What the hell is going on!"

Hearing this, Zhao Ting knelt on the ground and said repeatedly: "My father and sons were wronged, this was not done by my sons, he deliberately framed my sons, and my father must believe in my sons." Erchen would never dare to do this, it must be the prince, and it was the prince who wanted to frame Erchen. ”

At this moment, the prince completely understood in his heart why Hua Zhen asked her to insist on denying it no matter what happened, and she must say that this matter has nothing to do with her.

Hearing Zhao Ting say this, he immediately had a sad look on his face: "Fifth brother, why do you want to treat me like this, I have always regarded you as my own brother, why do you want Zhang Guang to frame me like this." ”

"You framed me! Zhao Zhi, all of this was designed by you, right, why did you do this! Tell your father that you designed all this!" Zhao Ting looked at the look in the prince's eyes at this moment, and then realized that he had fallen into a trap at all.

All this is not a trap, my heart is completely cool, looking at the prince and Zhang Guang, my face is also flustered like never before.

Seeing this, the prince was even more sad: "You and I are brothers, why do I want to harm you? As the crown prince, I am the prince of a country, why should I harm you?"

Yes, the prince has no need to harm Zhao Ting at all, as long as he doesn't make a mistake, he will always be the prince of the East Palace, the prince of a country, and the whole world will be his after a hundred years of Emperor Yan Wen.

If he is really jealous of these younger brothers, he will just wait for himself to sit on the throne and eradicate them one by one.

There is no need to make a move at this time, after all, if he is a little careless in doing this, he will fall into a situation from which he will never recover, and there is no need for him to do this.

But Zhao Ting is different, if he wants to seize power, the first thing he needs to get rid of is the prince.

At this moment, everyone looked at the prince and Zhao Ting, and no one believed that the prince would do such a stupid thing and let Zhang Guang frame Zhao Ting. On the contrary, he believed that this matter was designed by Zhao Ting and wanted to bring down the prince.

"I have always regarded Zhang Guang as my right-hand man, a year ago he said that his mother was seriously ill and wanted to go back to serve the sick, and I also asked Zhang Ying to take 10,000 yuan to send him back to his hometown so that he could have a good life and honor his mother. I never thought that he was a spy arranged by you in the Prince's Mansion, and I didn't expect that what he did to return to his hometown to serve the sick was actually hiding in Luzhou to raise soldiers. If Erchen knew, he would never let him do such a rebellious thing. The prince said with even more grief on his face.

Anyone who looks at it feels that the prince is really a little pitiful, he was designed by his younger brother, betrayed by people he trusted, and even almost lost his life by being implicated.

Even Emperor Yanwen looked at the prince at the moment, and couldn't help but think of Empress Renxiao, and felt a little more guilty about the prince in his heart.

The more he treated the crown prince, the more angry he was when he looked at Zhao Ting.

Seeing this, Li Yu didn't wait for Emperor Yan Wen to speak, and immediately knelt on the ground and said: "Your Majesty, the ministers have a plan to play." ”

"What's the matter with you?" Hearing this, Emperor Yan Wen looked at Li Yu with a little displeasure on his face.

Li Yu knelt on the ground and said respectfully: "The emperor ordered the minister to thoroughly investigate the assassination case of the county lord's mansion, and the minister has already found out the person behind the scenes. ”

Hearing this, Emperor Yan Wen couldn't help frowning, looking at the prince, and immediately felt very complicated.

He originally thought that all this was done by the prince, because Zhao Ting found out that Zhang Guang was hiding soldiers, so he was afraid and wanted to get rid of Zhang Guang.

But now the matter of Zhang Guangzang has nothing to do with the prince, so this assassination incident naturally cannot be the prince's desire to cover up the suspicions.

Thinking in his heart, he immediately looked at Li Yu: "Who arranged behind this to let people assassinate the county lord of Qinghe." ”

Hearing this, Li Yu said respectfully: "The minister found out that the person headed by the assassin who went to assassinate the county lord is named Wei Zhen, who was originally a general under the account of General Yang Xuanyan Yang, and suddenly disappeared a few years ago, General Yang thought that this Wei Zhen died in battle, but he didn't expect Wei Zhen to defect to King Qi. and secretly trained dead soldiers for King Qi, and the housekeeper in King Qi's mansion has confessed. At the moment when he went to assassinate the county lord of Qinghe that night, it was the dead soldiers that Wei Zhen secretly trained for King Qi, these dead soldiers were originally used to deal with the officials who were dissatisfied with the king of Qi, and the reason why they would assassinate the county lord was just to try the skills of these people.

In addition, it is the concubine Shen of King Qi, when the original Mrs. Jin Guo died, because her sister fell to the ground and lost a child. King Qi blamed the county lord for this, and felt that the child of King Qi's mansion who was harmed by the county lord lost his life, so he ordered someone to assassinate the county lord of Qinghe. It's just that I didn't expect that Jin Wuwei, who was sent by the emperor in the county lord's mansion, fought to the death, and let these people miss.

After Wei Zhen missed, he fled back to King Qi's mansion and was seen. The minister led people to chase people to King Qi's mansion, and King Qi was afraid that the matter would be exposed, so he killed a few people, and then killed three guards of King Qi's mansion, and slashed himself, pretending that these people fled into the palace in a hurry, and injured King Qi's illusion. Later, in order to blame the crown prince for this matter, King Qi arranged for a distant relative of Li Yong to testify falsely, saying that he had seen these people in contact with the people around the prince. Li Yong, the housekeeper of King Qi's mansion, has all confessed to these things, and here is Li Yong's confession. Please also ask the emperor to take a look. Li Yu said, presenting his confession with both hands.

Emperor Yan Wen glanced at Gonggong Cao, and Gonggong Cao immediately stepped forward to take the confession and send it to Emperor Wen Yan.

Emperor Yan Wen looked at Li Yong's confession, his face became more and more ugly, and finally he was even more angry, and threw the confession on the ground: "Take it, give him a good look!"

Only then did Gonggong Cao pick up the confession and send it to Zhao Ting.

Zhao Ting didn't have to look at it at all, listening to Li Yu's words, he understood in his heart, knowing that Li Yong must have confessed everything.

And he sat down on the ground with his face as dead as ashes.

Emperor Yan Wen had nothing to suspect when he saw this.

He didn't expect that all this was designed by Zhao Ting behind his back, and he almost fell for Zhao Ting's plan and misunderstood the prince.

Immediately, I was even more angry.

"Look at all the good things you've done!"

Hearing this, Li Yu knelt on the ground and continued: "Not only that, Zhang Mang was also escorted back to Beijing last night, and the emperor specially ordered someone to go to Lulong to investigate the rebellion of Wei Guogong, and it has been investigated. It was Zhang Mang who accepted bribes from King Qi and framed Wei Guogong, in order to get rid of Wei Guogong and leave the prince alone. ”

Hearing this, Prince Li, who had been silent, stood up, looked at the emperor and said very solemnly: "The emperor King Qi framed the crown prince for the time being, the Duke of Wei is the hero of Dayan, he has made great achievements for Dayan over the years, and has never participated in any battle between princes, but His Royal Highness King Qi wants to frame the hero of Dayan because of his own ambitions, these thoughts are really a bit vicious, and the minister implores the emperor to give the Duke of Wei a justice." Don't let the soldiers of the world, don't let the soldiers of Dayan chill!"

As he spoke, he knelt on the ground.

Prince Li is the emperor's younger brother and the emperor's most trusted person, and he has always been loyal to the emperor.

In the court, he never participated in any struggle.

Saying this at this moment, Emperor Yan Wen wanted to get rid of the Ning family again, but he could only speak: "If this matter is serious, Wei Guogong has indeed been framed, and I will give him justice." ”

Hearing this, Prince Yanli took the lead and shouted respectfully: "My emperor is Shengming." ”
