"Your Majesty, the prince is too arrogant. Since he has confessed his crime, please handle him according to my Daqing Law!"
As soon as the minister finished speaking, Liu Yin quickly stood up and echoed.
"Father, Liu Qigui is the prince, but he does such a crazy thing. Such a thing has never happened to me since the founding of Daqing. I hope that my father will punish him severely!"
Father, have you seen it?
How do these ministers treat the prince? How do they implement the rapport between the princes that you mentioned.
At this time, Liu Qi's smile suddenly disappeared, and when he glanced back, his piercing eyes made all the ministers shudder.
What's more, he actually took a step back involuntarily.
"What I said to you is right, but who said that I have confessed?"
In the court, everyone was stunned. Is there any difference?
"Liu Qi, since you already agree with what the ministers just said, why do you say that you don't plead guilty now?"
This is also a question on everyone's mind.
Liu Qi smiled and walked to a pillar in the hall.
"Excuse me, everyone, what is this?"
The ministers' faces were full of disdain.
Someone stood up impatiently.
"Can't the prince see it? This is a pillar."
As soon as he finished speaking, some people could not help but laugh at the prince, thinking that his behavior was so childish.
"No! This is not a pillar, but a tall spear."
Hearing this, many people laughed and laughed.
Liu Yin sneered and took a few steps forward.
"Absurd, extremely absurd. Everyone can see that this is a pillar. How can we talk about a spear? Isn't this a fallacy?"
Liu Qi nodded.
"That's right, let me ask you, if everyone here thinks he is a spear, and only you think it is the pillar, then is it still not the pillar?"
"If everyone in the world thinks this is a spear, and you are the only one who thinks it is the mainstay, then it doesn't mean it is not the mainstay!"
Liu Yin was confused by the question. The thoughts in his mind were spinning over and over again, almost smoking, but he didn't know how to argue.
At this time, a minister came forward.
"The prince must not distort the facts. No matter how many people think it, it cannot be changed. This is the backbone of the truth."
Liu Qi clapped his hands.
"Sir, what you said is so good!"
"This is the fact. Even if everyone is convinced that this is a spear, it is still the mainstay."
"Are the people who said that the pillars are spears wrong? Yes, they are just stupid. It's like everyone is saying what kind of person I am. This is not wrong, but it still cannot be changed. I am not guilty!"
After walking around, it turned out that he was waiting here.
The minister who just stood up and corrected the prince's remarks really wanted to give himself a few slaps.
At this moment, Yang Wenyuan suddenly bowed to Emperor Qing.
"Your Majesty! What the prince said is reasonable, and none of our words can be used as evidence of guilt."
"However, this matter has been strictly reviewed by the Tingwei. All the corrections made by all parties indicate that it was the Crown Prince who was responsible. How should the Crown Prince explain in the face of such irrefutable evidence?"
Emperor Qing thought for a moment.
"Liu Qi, have you heard what Mr. Yang said? Since you say you are not guilty, do you have any evidence?"
"I have no evidence!"
Everyone was stunned for a few seconds and then laughed.
"There is no evidence, what are you talking nonsense here?"
"I thought you had something to say that could clear your name, but it turns out you have nothing. What a joke."
"but..."
As soon as these two words came out of Liu Qi's mouth, the noisy atmosphere suddenly became quiet.
"However, although there is no evidence, after Mr. Zhang's careful investigation of this matter, it is so complicated that it absolutely cannot be shown that this is what I did!"
Everyone was confused. What do you mean? Could it be that it could be someone else?
"Father, why don't you let Mr. Zhang come over and confront your son face to face?"
Everyone was even more puzzled, wondering what kind of medicine the prince was selling in his gourd.
"good."
"Xuan, Zhang Shi enters the palace!"
After a while, Zhang Shi entered the hall with a solemn expression.
"Weak minister, please pay homage to Your Majesty."
"Zhang Shi, I asked you to thoroughly investigate the assassin. What was the result?"
Zhang Shi stood up and saluted.
"Your Majesty, both Huyanzhaer's confession and various signs from the investigation indicate that the crown prince and Qin Wei are the most suspected, and they also agree with the motive of this case."
When he said this, Liu Yin laughed.
"Then what else is there to say? Liu Qi has heard it, right? You are the biggest suspect, and now you can't produce evidence to prove it for yourself, what else is there to say?"
Liu Qi gave him a cold look, only regretting that he had been soft-hearted and why he didn't cripple him.
"Father, Mr. Zhang is saying that Er Chen is the most suspicious, and it is consistent with the motive for committing the crime, but there is no sufficient evidence. It is definitely Er Chen."
"Based solely on what Huyanzhaer said, how can we conclude that my son is the mastermind?"
Emperor Qing nodded slightly.
"Indeed, we can't explain it now, but you must be it. But you are the biggest suspect, and at many times, you and Qin Wei agreed to the conditions for committing the crime. What do you say?"
Liu Qi chuckled lightly, turned around and looked at Liu Yin suddenly.
This look made Liu Yin tremble.
"Liu Yin, I would like to ask you, where could Huyanchar be on the night he escaped from prison?"
Uh...how does this involve me? Liu Yin's face was filled with astonishment.
"I took my servant to Nanming Lake to fish that night. I returned to the house early the next morning. The servant can prove it."
Liu Qi smiled and shook his head.
"The servant is your confidant. What evidence do you have to prove that you didn't do something else that night?"
When Liu Yin heard this, he immediately became anxious.
"Liu Qi, don't be slanderous. I will go back the next day with a bucket full of fish."
"Haha, there is a bucket of fish, can the fish talk? Can it prove it to you? What a joke."
Liu Yin was a little panicked and stopped arguing with Liu Qi.
"Father, I am wronged. My son really went fishing."
Liu Qi ignored him and turned to look at Emperor Qing on the high platform.
"Father, if Qin Wei was suspicious that night, then Liu Yin is also suspicious, and he also agreed with the motive for committing the crime."
The Minister of Punishment stepped forward at this time.
"Prince, don't talk nonsense. At this time, Liu Yin did have time to commit the crime, but he did not go out. The only one who went out at that time, everyone knows, was your subordinate Qin Wei."
"Although he brought back General Bai Qi, who knows if he was doing something else during the time he was out of this city?"
"Moreover, not long after he came back, Huyanchar entered Kyoto, and the subsequent assassination incident happened. Isn't this too much of a coincidence?"
Facing the correction from Lu Dewang, the Minister of Punishment, Liu Qi shook his head.
"No no no."
"Lord Lu, if we extrapolate based on time, Huyanchaer escaped from prison not long ago, but there is another person outside the city."
"Also, not long before the Huyanchar incident, there was another person who also came from outside the city."
Everyone was confused and couldn't guess who the two people Liu Qi was talking about were.
