Chapter 114: Breaking the Situation

The few witnesses who were found by Chu Mo, after hearing the conversation between Hong Sifeng and Chu Yunxiu, they were also immediately frightened.

They were originally doing things for Chu Sheng, and they naturally knew everything about Hong Sifeng's methods. Now that they heard that Hong Sifeng took the initiative to ask for help, and asked Emperor Chu to hand them over to Hong Sifeng for interrogation, how could they still be calm?

Therefore, these witnesses immediately knelt down one after another and kowtowed to Emperor Chu to beg for mercy.

"Your Majesty spare your life, Your Majesty spare your life!"

"We have been ordered by the crown prince, and we have already said everything that should be said, and I ask Your Majesty to be aware and spare our lives!"

Chu Yunxiu ignored them, waved his hand at Hong Sifeng beside him and ordered: "Father-in-law Hong, this matter will be handled according to what you say! A good person must not be wronged, and a wicked person must never be spared. ”

"The old slave obeyed. Hong Sifeng bowed to Chu Yunxiu, and then immediately shouted outside the hall: "Come on, take these people to prison." ”

Soon, several gold-armored guards walked in, and under Hong Sifeng's orders, escorted those witnesses out of the hall, and Hong Sifeng also went with him.

Seeing those people being taken away, Chu Sheng knew that under Hong Sifeng's words and deeds to extract confessions, those people would definitely tell the truth. At that time, not only will he not be able to wait for an opportunity to smear Chu Mo because of this incident, but he will let himself be charged with one more crime.

So he hurriedly looked at Yu Wen Chenghua, the right minister, and wanted to ask him for help, but Yu Wen Chenghua turned his face away.

Chu Sheng looked at Chu Yu, the fourth prince on the other side, but Chu Yu just smiled at him, and did not stand up to say a word for him, or think of a way to break the siege for him.

After a while, Chu Yunxiu suddenly said to the Manchu Dynasty Wenwu: "It will take some time to find out the truth of this matter, let's stop here this morning, let's retreat!"

But the right minister Yu Wen Chenghua suddenly stood up and said: "Your Majesty, this matter is related to the reputation of the eldest prince and His Royal Highness the crown prince, if you don't quickly find out the truth and make the truth public, I'm afraid it will make the ministers have a lot of doubts about this matter!"

"Do you think I'll be biased?" Chu Yunxiu asked with a fierce glaring at Yuwen Chenghua.

"Weichen doesn't dare, but if this matter can't be made public, it will inevitably be added to the vinegar by people with intentions, and I am afraid that there will be unimaginable serious consequences at that time. ”

"After this matter is clarified, I will make it public. Now I say retreat!" Chu Yunxiu gritted his teeth and said fiercely.

But Yuwen Chenghua still couldn't give up, and said, "Your Majesty, this matter ......"

"Shut up, if I say retreat, I will retreat. What's the matter, let's talk about it tomorrow, retreat!" Chu Yunxiu roared angrily and slapped it heavily on the dragon chair.

A little eunuch next to him was startled, and hurriedly shouted in a deep voice: "Retreat!"

Knowing that Chu Yunxiu was really angry, those ministers who wanted to watch the play hurriedly left the main hall. Even Yuwen Chenghua wanted to say something, and finally shook his head and sighed lightly, and walked out with the others.

Chu Sheng just stood up and wanted to take the opportunity to leave with the others, but he didn't expect Chu Yunxiu to suddenly shout again: "The eldest prince and the crown prince will stay for the time being!"

Chu Sheng, who had just taken two steps, had to stop immediately, and then looked at Yuwen Chenghua, who was walking outside the hall, and shouted in a low voice: "Right Phase, Right Phase, help me!"

However, Yuwen Chenghua smiled back, waved his hand at him, and shrugged. Then he left Chu Sheng, who looked helpless, and walked out of the hall with a swagger.

Chu Sheng looked at the ministers who had fallen to his side before, and planned to support him as the new crown prince, and walked out of the hall one by one with expressionless faces, and he slowly became disheartened.

Chu Mo quietly walked to his side and whispered: "Don't look at it, anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is a puddle of troubled water, who would be stupid enough to risk their lives and future to take this trip to troubled waters?"

"Father hasn't made up his mind yet, don't be too complacent. Chu Sheng gritted his teeth and said.

Chu Mo smiled calmly: "Okay, then let's wait and see who has the last laugh?"

After all the ministers retreated, in the entire palace hall, except for the gold-armored guards guarding outside the hall and the little eunuchs who served Chu Yunxiu, there were only two people left, Chu Sheng and Chu Mo.

After waiting for a long time, there was no news, and Chu Mozhan's legs were sore. Chu Yunxiu saw it in his eyes, but he didn't let people give them chairs, probably because he wanted to give them a little punishment.

Chu Mo didn't care so much, in the end, he was too tired to stand, and he was angry about this matter, so he sat directly on the ground in the main hall.

Seeing this, Chu Sheng also sat on the ground with him.

After a long time, it was past noon, and Hong Sifeng, who went to interrogate him with torture, finally ran into the main hall with a few written confessions and walked straight to Emperor Chu.

When Emperor Chu saw Hong Sifeng, he also impatiently walked down directly from the dragon chair, walked all the way to the main hall, and then asked Hong Sifeng, "How is it?

Hong Sifeng nodded and replied: "Those people have a bit of a hard mouth, but they didn't go through a few tricks, and they all came out obediently." These are the confessions of those people, and the old slave vouched for his life, and they would never dare to tell a lie again under such circumstances. ”

Chu Yunxiu immediately stretched out his hand, but Hong Sifeng hesitated for a moment, and confirmed again and again: "Your Majesty, are you sure you really want to watch it? ”

"Bring it!" Chu Yunxiu said solemnly.

Now that things have come to such a point, Chu Yunxiu knows better than anyone that his two sons can only protect one at most now.

So for him, when Chu Mo accused the eldest prince Chu Sheng of colluding with foreign enemies to assassinate him in front of hundreds of civil and military officials, there was no turning back on this matter.

Chu Yunxiu saw that Hong Sifeng did not react, he directly stepped forward, snatched the confessions of those witnesses from Hong Sifeng's hand, and then immediately looked through them.

The next moment, Chu Yunxiu's face became extremely ugly, and the more he looked down, the darker his face became, and the hands holding those confessions were so angry that he couldn't help but tremble.

In the end, Chu Yunxiu directly threw those confessions on the face of the eldest prince Chu Sheng, and scolded him bitterly: "You son of a, look at what good things you have done!"

Chu Sheng picked up those confessions, and the things mentioned above were all things he had designed to frame Chu Mo before.

In addition to colluding with the assassins of Zhao State and designing an ambush for Chu Mo, there are also various rumors that were deliberately spread among the people in order to deal with Chu Mo before.

Even the fact that Chu Shengli used a startling horse incense to cause Chu Mo to fall off his horse and almost fall to his death was listed by those people.

Looking at the piles one by one, Chu Sheng finally understood that he had gone over.

His face sank, and he sat down on the ground.
