At this time, Zhao Teng had to take action himself. After all, if he doesn't take action, he will be in vain this time.
Zhao Teng sighed and said: "After entering Xianyang City, I have been living in Shangjun Courtyard. His auction of swords was also held in the Exorcist Tower."
"If you say that Yi Huo has nothing to do with the banished immortal, I'm afraid no one will believe it, right?"
"What's even more puzzling is that the person who filed the lawsuit was General Li Xin. Li Xin has been in and out of Shangjun Courtyard all year round and almost regarded Shangjun Courtyard as his own home."
"Is this... too obvious? This was clearly planned by the three of them. They were acting."
"In the name of filing a complaint, they deliberately came to the Imperial Palace to create a big publicity and made the auction of the sword known to everyone. Fortunately, they got a high price at the auction three days later."
Zhao Teng bowed his hand to Ying Zheng and said with a look of sorrow and anger: "I have already investigated clearly. Yi Huo auctioned the sword at the Exalted Immortal Tower, and 10% of the profit will be given to the Exalted Immortal Tower. Therefore, they definitely have Premeditated.”
Li Shui looked at Zhao Teng, laughed dryly and said, "Yong Chi has already confessed his guilt, why did Mr. Zhao bother to come and press him so hard?"
Zhao Teng sneered: "It's not that Zhao is pushing hard, it's just that the banished immortal went too far. If the banished immortal refuses to accept it, we can call Yong Chi over and interrogate him in detail to find out the truth. What is it?"
"I believe that Yong Chi will definitely recruit him from the ground up, saying that he was instigated by others and conspired to put on a show."
Li Shui coughed dryly and said to Zhao Teng: "Master Nei Shi, how can you guarantee that Yong Chi will not be threatened by others and say that he was acting according to the wishes of some people?"
Zhao Teng: "..."
He suddenly realized that he would never be able to argue with a shameless person like Huai Guzi.
Because people like him don't take face seriously at all, and don't mind messing around at all. He doesn't care at all about the opinions of the courtiers and the people of the world, as long as he can make you speechless.
Zhao Teng sighed and said to Li Shui: "Justice is in the heart of the people. I only want to be banished to immortals and I can have a clear conscience."
These words are really weak.
Li Shui grinned.
Ying Zheng said calmly: "How majestic is the law of the Qin Dynasty? Huaiguzi, business is business in the future, and you must not use the court or the government to create momentum."
Li Shui responded and happily agreed.
Even if Ying Zheng didn't say anything, Li Shui was planning to stop.
In the early days of encouraging business, the imperial court's endorsement was needed. At that time, letting the Yamen participate in building momentum, although it had a negative impact, the advantages outweighed the disadvantages.
Now in the Guanzhong area, commerce has become a new trend, and there is no need to sacrifice the government anymore.
The imperial court still needs to be dignified, and it still needs to be an absolutely fair and just existence in the minds of the people in the world.
The courtiers looked at Zhao Teng with some sympathy.
It's a pity that Huai Guzi was not refuted this time.
In fact, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Huaiguzi did something wrong. Even His Majesty saw it.
It's a pity that this person is shameless and refuses to admit it.
Without absolute evidence, it is really difficult to start.
Zhao Teng gritted his teeth, still a little unwilling. He added: "At the auction that day, Exiled Immortal sold a sword worth 70 million yuan. I have some doubts about whether the sword is real or fake."
"What about sword spirits, and why there are sounds of tigers roaring and dragons roaring at night? It's all nonsense."
Li Shui coughed dryly: "I've said it many times, I'm not the one selling swords, and I'm not the one buying swords. My Immortal Exile Tower is just a restaurant."
"Guests come and go, chatting and eating inside. What do they do have to do with me?"
Zhao Teng still wants to talk. Zhao Tuo stood up and said quietly: "Master Nei Shi, this sword is indeed a sword. I really heard the sound of tigers roaring and dragons roaring."
Zhao Teng: "..."
He was a little depressed. Why was it so difficult to sue Huaiguzi? Why are there always random people coming to cause trouble?
Of course, he did not doubt that Zhao Tuo was from Huaiguzi.
After all, Zhao Tuo and Li Si are very close. Moreover, it is understandable that Zhao Tuo wanted to rectify the name of this sword. If the sword is fake, doesn't it mean that Li Si has poor vision?
In fact, Zhao Tuo took the risk to stand up, ostensibly, to clear Li Si's name and tell everyone that Ting Wei was right.
But his real purpose was to take the opportunity to please Li Shui.
But in this way, Zhao Tuo could only insist that this sword could indeed make a sound and could no longer deny it.
Everyone in the court had their own thoughts, and Zhao Teng also fell into silence.
When Ying Zheng saw that the officials were silent, he looked at the young eunuch beside him. The young eunuch was about to shout at the top of his lungs to withdraw from the court. Li Shui stood up again.
He saluted Ying Zheng and said, "Your Majesty, I want to impeach someone."
Ying Zheng asked calmly: "Who is it?"
Li Shui said: "I want to impeach..."
Halfway through his words, he suddenly got stuck. Then he took out a piece of paper from his pocket and read it: "Oh, I want to impeach Mr. Han Mei."
The courtiers were a little speechless. What is this thing about Huaiguzi? When you impeach someone, you can’t even remember their name? Is there anything more childish than this in the world?
Ying Zheng asked: "Where is Han Mei?"
Han Mei stood up nervously.
When everyone looked at him, they immediately let out a sigh.
Isn't this Han Mei the person who just helped Feng Renji pick up the impeachment memorial?
Huaiguzi now hates him? Impeachment in court? Revenge comes quickly.
Chunyu Yue couldn't stand it any longer. Han Mei just helped pick up a piece of paper, but Huai Guzi retaliated against him? Can you still have some moral character?
Chunyu Yue stood up and said to Li Shui: "Huai Guzi, this is the court, please don't act recklessly."
Li Shui said aggrievedly: "Sister-in-law, why are you targeting me everywhere?"
Chunyu Yue gritted his teeth and said, "Don't talk nonsense, who is your sister-in-law? Mr. Han just picked up a piece of paper, and you want to impeach him? You are retaliating."
Li Shui said: "I impeached him, of course there is real evidence. Sister-in-law, just don't worry."
Han Mei said bravely: "Excuse me, Lord Banished Immortal, what did this official commit?"
Li Shui said loudly and forcefully: "You are a rebel, and I will charge you with the crime of treason."
The courtiers all had mysterious smiles on their faces: It was indeed a banishment to an immortal, it was still such a familiar routine.
Han Mei didn't take it seriously and said with a helpless look: "Exiled Immortal, when did I become a traitor? Why did I become a rebel again?"
Even Ying Zheng started to have random thoughts.
What he was thinking about was not treason, but what to eat after the court was over. Barley Pastry seems to have delivered a few new snacks, which are said to be delicious...
Most of the people in the court did not listen carefully to Li Shui's accusation. After all, Li Shui had cried wolf so many times that everyone had become immune.
Only Li Shui still spoke generously.
After he finished speaking, he found that no one responded. I was extremely disappointed and couldn't help but sigh: "Everyone is drunk and I am sober."
Suddenly, Han Mei, who was not far away, made a clang and sat down on the ground.
Everyone was startled and looked over there quickly.
Han Mei was seen struggling to stand up, but his whole body was shaking. His legs were as soft as noodles and he couldn't exert any strength at all.
Li Xin pointed at Han Mei and shouted, "He is indeed a rebel. He was frightened by Brother Huai's evidence."
The courtiers all groaned.
Zhao Teng couldn't help but said to Li Shui: "What evidence did you just say to scare him like this?"
Li Shui said quietly: "My mouth was dry just now when I spoke. Could it be that Mr. Neishi didn't listen to a word of it? Mr. Nei Shi occupies a high position, but he is wandering in the sky above the court."
"This is not taking the government's affairs seriously, not taking the world seriously, not taking His Majesty seriously. This is close to treason."
Zhao Teng: "..."
It's coming, it's coming.
The charge of treason may come late, but it will never be absent.
Li Shui turned to look at the other adults, and the courtiers all shrank their necks.
According to Li Shui's standards, they had all become rebels just now.
Chunyu Yue was very smart. He said first: "Exiled Immortal, Master Zhao Teng didn't hear clearly just now, so you can say it again."
The surrounding courtiers nodded vigorously.
Zhao Teng looked at these people a little helplessly, thinking: Chunyu Yue is said to be virtuous and upright, but this old man is really bad, and he is quite bad. This pushed me out to block the arrow.
Li Shui sighed and said: "Since you have asked me for mercy, I will reluctantly tell Master Zhao how Han Mei rebelled."
Li Shui cleared his throat and said: "Han Mei, although he holds an official position in our Daqin, his ancestors are Koreans, and he has never lost contact with the people in his hometown."
"A few days ago, someone from my homeland came to my door and asked Han Mei for help in doing something to bring trouble to Chao Gang."
"At first, Han Mei didn't agree, but when the man saw his interests, Han Mei agreed."
"So, he quietly arranged for a thief to lie and claim that he came back from Beidi County. He claimed that he was under Fu Yao's rule and could not survive, so he fled to Xianyang City."
"With this, Han Mei and his accomplices hope to attack Mr. Fu Yao, attack me at the same time, and disrupt the court at the same time."
The courtiers looked at each other, and many of them were thinking: Attack you? Isn’t that true? Why are you disrupting the court?
However, the courtiers only thought about this idea in their hearts and did not dare to speak it out.
At this time, Han Mei stood up and said to Li Shui: "Do you have any evidence for these words of banning the immortal? They are empty words, don't frame me."
Li Shui said: "You were so frightened that you collapsed to the ground just now. Isn't this evidence?"
Han Mei took a deep breath and said to Li Shui: "The banished immortal misunderstood. When I was a child, my right leg was injured and I had leg disease. The leg disease just broke out and the pain was unbearable. So I looked pale and my whole body was shaking."
Li Shui chuckled: "Your quibbling skills are pretty good."
Chun Yuyue said in a low voice: "The Exorcist mentioned just now that the thief who framed Master Fu Yao knew everything. In that case, can't we just take the thief out of the cell and interrogate him in detail?"
Li Shui sighed: "It's a pity that an assassin killed the thief the day before yesterday."
The courtiers looked at each other. Many people think: No wonder you are talking here and there and never come up with evidence. It turns out there is no evidence.
Li Shui continued: "However, although the thief is dead, it will be clear if we check who entered the cell the day before yesterday."
Li Si glanced at Li Shui and said with a smile: "Having heard the intention of banishing the immortal, you already know who it is?"
Li Shui nodded: "Yes, I do know who it is. Among the people who entered and exited the cell the day before yesterday, there were guards and prisoners. The guards came and went, and there was nothing suspicious. If the guards wanted to take action, they would have done it long ago. "
"However, a prisoner entered the cell the day before yesterday. The prisoner's name is Yangwei. His crime was disobedience and unfilial piety. He contradicted his father a few times, so he was sent to the cell."
"But I had someone check it out. This Yangwei has no father at all and is an orphan. He was once adopted by Han Mei's housekeeper, Han Jia. This Yangwei is loyal to both Han Jia and Han Mei."
Han Mei clenched his teeth and said nothing.
With this expression, you can understand that he is afraid and trying to endure it. It can also be understood that he is suffering from a foot disease and is forcing himself to endure it.
Chunyu Yue said: "So, this Yangwei is the murderer of the thief?"
Li Shui said: "Exactly."
Chunyu Yue said: "This is simple. Bring the sheep's tail up and you will know after asking."
Li Shui sighed: "However, yesterday, Yangwei was punished as a city dan. While on duty on the city wall, he accidentally fell and died."
courtier:"……"
It’s so lively to say, but there’s still no evidence at all.
Chunyu Yue shook his head.
Li Shui said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, please don't be disappointed. The people who guarded the city with Yangwei once said that before he died, he kept talking about thunder and lightning, thunder from the blue, punishment from heaven, and anger from God. It’s obvious that he did something wrong.”
Chunyu Yue said unhappily: "Zi Buyu has strange powers and chaotic spirits. How can these illusory things be used as evidence?"
Han Mei also forced a smile: "Did the banished immortal just find a dead person, arrange some things about him, and then frame the official?"
Li Shui said slowly: "That's not true. Although the person is dead, I still have some evidence."
Li Shui bowed his hand to Ying Zheng: "Your Majesty, I kindly ask Wujiao to bring up the evidence."
Ying Zheng nodded.
Then Wujiao came in holding the box.
Everyone took a look and found that it was a gramophone.
Wujiao put the box on the ground, took out another bamboo tube, and then slowly shook the handle.
Then, a voice came from inside: "Sir, let me rescue you."
Then another voice: "Seriously?"
The man before said: "Of course it is true."
Then, there was a muffled sound. Then there was a scream, and then there was no more sound.
Li Shui said: "The voices inside are the voices of assassins and thieves. Although there are not many people who know Yangwei, there are always a few. As long as they are called over to identify them, they will definitely know the identity of the assassin."
Han Mei said bravely: "However, some people have similar voices, so this is not necessarily the sheep's tail."
Li Shui smiled and slowly took out a piece of paper from his body: "What if we add this?"
Han Mei took a look and suddenly screamed, falling to the ground as if he had seen a ghost.
