Thinking of this, Ying Shan was shaking like chaff, his face was bloodless, and he was preparing books and evidence... These four words were like a sharp blade, piercing into his heart. Vaguely, he seemed to understand something...
However, under the empress' gaze, she could only brace herself and continue reading.
"I have dedicated my life to the Qin Dynasty and to your majesty. However, I am not prepared for the slightest criticism, and I am trapped in injustice... I will not defend myself. The pure will be pure, and the dirty will be dirty. If I cannot win your majesty's trust, I will not defend myself." To win the trust of all people, I ask for relegation. Those who are outside this world do not have the heart to belong to the temple. They should take advantage of this opportunity to retreat to the countryside, fish, hunt, farm and read. This is really what they want in their hearts. I hope your majesty will fulfill it..."
After Ying Shan trembled and recited, his whole body felt as if his bones had been ripped out, and he fell limply to the ground. Suddenly, he burst into tears and crawled forward a few steps: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I was deceived by Xiao Xiao, deceived by rumors, and almost wrongly blamed Zhongliang. Your Majesty, please forgive me."
The empress's eyes were cold and she said nothing.
Li Xiu sighed: "The matter is related to my prime minister's house. I will explain it to you. The three thousand heads are indeed just an excuse, but there is a reason for it. The three thousand people are all the remnants of Mr. Lu. I guess because of my relationship with the Lu family, I provided him with I just want to protect you, the regent, and I just want to put an end to it on my behalf, but I am actually grateful."
Ying Shan's dull eyes slowly turned to the servant Chen He.
Chen He also came out at this moment and said: "It has something to do with you, the facts are not outside rumors. The regent has never tried to seize my Chen family's property. Yes, he has occupied 50% of my Chen family, but the Chen family has also invested in the regent." The king’s property, after all calculations, the income has doubled compared to previous years, and I am extremely grateful to the regent..."
Ying Shan was stunned for a moment, and an ominous premonition filled his heart.
Li Xiu shook his head and asked the heart-wrenching words: "Dong An Guo, may I ask who was responsible for this assassination?"
Ying Shan shook his head hurriedly: "No, no, no matter how ignorant I am, I would never do such a thing. If I planned this, how could I go to court to report to His Majesty..."
Before he could finish his words, someone suddenly came in and knelt down on one knee: "Dragon Eagle Guard, Ying San plays to please Your Majesty."
The empress looked at him and said, "Say."
Ying San said: "Seven people have died, and the identity of two of them is still unknown. Among the other five, one is Feng Yu, the general of Guanzhong Marquis, one is Wang Hai, a guest of Duke Fuguo, and one has been in and out of Anguo Duke's mansion several times in recent days. , Dragon Eagle Guard has records, but the relationship is still unknown.”
"This, this is impossible!" Guanzhong Hou said angrily.
"Shut up!" Li Xiu frowned and interrupted him.
"Where did the other three deceased people come from?"
"There is no identification mark, but the captured person identified them as both from the undercover."
"Who was captured alive?"
"These two are twin sisters. They are from the Luan family, the leader of the Star Luo Guards of the Feng Family. They are on the watch list of the Prime Minister and our Dragon Eagle Guards."
The court was suddenly filled with whispers.
Now, everything seems to be clear. The Seven Dukes united with the Feng family to plot against King Xiaoyao, and these ups and downs were obviously caused by them...
The empress stared at Ying Shan: "Now that things have come to this, uncle, what's your excuse?"
Ying Shan's face turned pale, but he wanted to seize the last chance: "No, no, we have absolutely no intention of doing so. Someone must be setting the blame, and your Majesty is aware of it——"
Li Xiu sighed and said, "My lord, how do you explain the person who comes to your house?"
"This...I don't know this at all...it's nothing..."
Li Xiu looked at him disappointedly, then turned to Yang Lin: "Gong Fuguo, do you have any excuse?"
Yang Lin's head was buzzing at the moment, and his intuition told him that this seemed to be a trap, but the regent was seriously injured and dying after all, so there was no way to frame someone... What was wrong?
Hearing Li Xiu ask him, he almost didn't recover. He opened his mouth and said, "Wang Hai only surrendered to me three days ago. Yang really doesn't know about this person's origins..."
Li Xiu snorted: "My lord, they are all big shots. It would be too childish to say that you don't know anything..."
Having said that, without waiting for Duke Fu to explain, he turned to the Marquis of Guanzhong: "Master Marquis, what do you have to say?"
Guanzhong Hou yelled: "Feng Yu? Impossible, he has been under my command for ten years, how could he do such a thing? Even if he did, it has nothing to do with me, and I have no idea!"
Li Xiu looked at him with some contempt in his eyes, then turned to Fan Yuqi, Duke Dingguo: "Dong Dingguo?"
Fan Yuqi's expression changed for a while, and he suddenly burst into laughter: "Well, I don't know how I lost, but I won't lose if I lose. Yes, I arranged for Feng Yu to be under the command of Guanzhong Hou. He made a big mistake a few days ago. Guanzhong Hou promised It will bring harm to the family, let him be involved in this matter..."
Guanzhong Hou jumped up in anger: "Fart! Fan Yuqi! When did such a thing happen? You are talking nonsense!"
Li Xiu shouted sternly: "There is no need to roar in the court hall!"
Guanzhong Hou was furious: "Li Xiu, common man! You framed us!"
The next moment, a big mouth slapped him in the face, knocking him unconscious to the ground.
The one who takes action is Gao Qi. He slightly cupped his hands and said: "If you are not successful in running the army, stand up and accept the punishment!"
The empress glanced at Guanzhong Hou indifferently, then turned to Fan Yuqi: "You are indeed a person."
Fan Yuqi took two steps proudly and beat his chest with his right fist: "I know that I am guilty of capital punishment. Please, Your Majesty, please bypass your family members. I am willing to confess the details."
The empress simply said: "Their life or death depends on the life or death of the regent."
Fan Yuqi sighed with emotion: "Forget it, let's bet on destiny. I believe that the regent's strange man sent from heaven may not be short-lived. I admit it!"
Ying Shan rolled up and pointed at Fan Yuqi: "You, you, stop talking nonsense!"
Fan Yuqi sneered: "Nonsense? Our Seventh Duke contacted thousands of officials and wealthy families, isn't it just because the regent blocked the way and cut off our financial resources? Now that things have happened, we can afford to lose, don't act like a child You look so disgusting!"
Ying Shan was trembling with anger: "You, you, you are talking nonsense..."
Fan Yuqi directly took out a scroll from his arms: "This is our oath and the alliance can prove it. In addition, all participants are recorded here and presented to your majesty. If the regent is saved, I hope your majesty will not break his promise." .”
Ying Shan collapsed on the ground for the third time, his eyes were blank, and slowly, he revealed a hint of realization, muttering to himself with infinite ridicule: "I see, that's it..."
His eyes were red and he looked around the crowd: "Good for you Fan Yuqi, good for you Chen He, good for you Li Xiu...hahaha...no injustice, no injustice!"
He got up for the third time. Although his body was trembling, he laughed heartbreakingly: "The traitor is causing trouble, and there is nothing you can do about it. Failure is the crime of not fighting... Hahaha..."
He stared at the empress with resentment: "Ying Wushuang, you deliberately destroyed the winner's flesh and blood. I, the last elder of the Ying family, died at your hands. From now on, you, the female thief, can rest easy... But... your appearance will not survive." It won’t work, hahaha, with him buried with me, I won’t be alone under the circumstances, hahaha!”
