Chapter 251: Next Steps
"Yes, I secretly went to the study in Qian Liangye's mansion afterwards, where there was a Buddhist shrine, and the head of the Buddha statue was three feet away, and I found an account book."
"Ledger?" Nangong Ding probably understood what was going on.
"This ledger records in detail the huge amount of silver taels that Qian Liangye has sent to the Qi Palace's mansion over the years." Li Feibai said.
"No wonder, no wonder Qian Liangye's nephew said that he embezzled nearly 10 million taels, but the assets that could be confiscated were less than 100,000 taels, and they all flowed into the Qi Palace." Nangong Ding suddenly realized.
"Lord Wang, this account book is enough to convict Nangong Mountain of forming a party for personal gain and framing members of the royal family, plus he took Lin Tianchong to kill Qian Liangye, which is another crime of privately killing important officials of the imperial court." Li Feibai said.
"Yes, very good!" Nangong Ding nodded slightly, but there seemed to be worry in his eyes.
"Lord, what are you worried about?" Li Feibai asked.
"I know Your Majesty's temperament best, he is very protective, he has identified Nangong Shan as the heir, although these crimes seem to be serious crimes, but none of them can touch Your Majesty's bottom line. What's more, in His Majesty's heart, Nangong Mountain's actions are just a means of party struggle and even self-preservation, and they are not enough to put him to death." Nangong Ding voiced his concerns.
Holding the corners of his mouth and smiling, Li Feibai said, "I have long expected what the prince is worried about."
"Huh?" Nangong Dinghu looked at him suspiciously: "Do you still have a killing move?"
Hearing Li Feibai say this, Nangong must have understood immediately, he knew that the person in front of him would not talk a bunch of nonsense for no reason.
"If I say that Nangong Mountain has an affair with Concubine De, is that enough?" Li Feibai asked with a smile.
"What? King Qi had an affair with Sun Linghe?"
Nangong stood up steadily, his eyes wide open.
It's incredible.
"If I say it again, His Majesty's favorite child, Nangong Ji, King Yan, is also the flesh and blood of Nangong Mountain, does the prince think that this matter can make Nangong Mountain die again?" Li Feibai asked again.
"Ji'er is also the flesh and blood of King Qi? How is this possible?" Nangong Ding was surprised and dumbfounded.
"Your Majesty is weak, when King Yan was born, he was already more than fifty, why was there only one Nangong Ji born at that age?"
Li Feibai said the first suspicion.
"Besides, didn't the prince find out that Nangong Ji and Nangong Mountain look like they were carved out of the same mold? If Nangong Ji is His Majesty's son, then he and Nangong Shan are just half-brothers, and there is no reason to be so similar."
After being stunned for a long time, Nangong Ding gradually accepted the facts that Li Feibai said.
He himself and Nangong Qing are also half-brothers, but their looks are very different.
Nangong Ji is so similar to Nangong Mountain, there must be something strange.
"Fei Li, do you have any proof?"
"They must be very secretive, I don't have any evidence yet, just speculation." Li Feibai replied.
"It would be nice if there was evidence, plus the previous charges, Nangong Mountain would be enough to die once." Nangong Ding muttered.
He knows Nangong Qing's temperament, no matter how Nangong Mountain messes around, as long as there is no big rebellion, he can be exposed.
However, Nangong Mountain moved Nangong Qing's favorite concubine, and one of his favorite sons turned out to be Nangong Shan's flesh and blood, which was absolutely unacceptable to Nangong Qing.
Overnight, the son became a grandson, which must have made the royal family laugh and be generous.
Li Feibai was also silent.
He knew that as long as there was evidence in this matter, plus the previous charges, and Nangong Qing's psychological defense line was broken one by one, even if Nangong Mountain was favored, he would definitely die without a place to be buried.
"I have an idea." Suddenly, Nangong Ding said.
"What's the king's plan?" Li Feibai really wanted to hear Nangong Ding's strategy.
"Blood test!" Nangong Ding said four words.
sneered in his heart, this kind of ignorant practice, I am afraid that only at this time will it deceive everyone.
In the case of a living body, if the blood of several people is drip into the same vessel, it will soon clot
For one, you don't have to be close to your relatives.
Of course, this kind of cognition from the previous life was explained to Nangong Ding, and he may not be able to understand it.
So, Li Feibai could only reply, "This method doesn't work."
"Why?" Nangong was puzzled.
Helpless, Li Feibai could only think of an explanation: "Even if King Yan is the son of Nangong Mountain, but at the same time, he is also the grandson of His Majesty, and their blood will also fuse, so it is not ironclad evidence."
"The blood between grandparents and grandchildren can also be fused?"
Based on Nangong Ding's cognition, he didn't know that the blood between the next generation could also be fused in the water.
"Yes." Li Feibai replied affirmatively.
For his words, Nangong Ding naturally believed it, not to mention this kind of thing, Li Feibai had no reason to lie at all.
"It seems that if you want to bring down Nangong Mountain, you can't let Your Majesty witness all this with your own eyes."
"Fei Li, this is easy to say, but it is difficult to do. First, we don't know when Nangong Shan and Concubine De will get along? Second, let's go into the palace and take His Majesty's hand and go to the Chunde Palace to expose all this, I'm afraid that Nangong Mountain has already fled when he hears the news, how can we catch the girl on the spot?" Nangong Ding suddenly said the difficulty.
"So this matter has to be considered in the long run."
In fact, Li Feibai already had a rough plan in his heart, but he didn't want to talk about it now.
For no other reason, he didn't fully believe in Nangong Ding.
While the two were discussing, a guard from an intelligence battalion came to report.
"Tell the prince, there is a situation outside."
"What's the matter?" Nangong Ding turned around and asked.
The guard glanced at Li Feibai and stopped talking.
"Lord Wang, I'll avoid it first." After speaking, Li Feibai got up and was about to leave the room.
"No, you don't!" Nangong Ding stopped him, then turned to the guard and said, "Mr. Bai and I, like the same person, will report to me in the future, no matter how big or small, and at the same time report to Mr. Bai to know, understand?"
"Understood!" The guard replied.
"Tell me, what?"
"The Beishan Army searched the city vigorously, saying that they would arrest the traitor Lin Tianchong, and the Imperial City Forbidden Army also joined the search ranks."
Hearing the news, Li Feibai was stunned at first, and then clapped his hands.
"Okay, great, God helps the prince, heaven helps the prince......
"Fei Li, what's going on?" Nangong Ding waved his hand and asked the guards to retreat.
"Lin Tianchong and Nangong Shan have long had a gap in their hearts, the former is dissatisfied with the latter's behavior, the latter is dissatisfied with the former's repeated disobedience, and it is only a matter of time before they fall out. I was still thinking hard about how to plot against Lin Tianchong, and Nangong Mountain gave this great gift."
Li Feibai looked excited, after all, it was indeed his will to get rid of Nangong Mountain and vent his anger for Xu Qianqian and Fang Shengshou.
"If you can really convince Lin Tianchong to sue first, then none of the charges you mentioned earlier, Nangong Mountain will not be able to escape." Nangong Ding is also gearing up.
"By the way, there's one more thing."
