Chapter 1,167
King Wei's heart suddenly trembled, and he broke out in cold sweat.
How did Xiao Lintian know these things?
You must know that Zhuangzi imprisoned Zhu De's family, but no one knew about it except him and two cronies.
"Father, when my son and I were participating in the water battle, they had already invited King Pingnan and Chen Buwei to go to King Wei's Zhuangzi!"
"Just now Buwei Chen reported that Zhu De's family had been rescued. They were about to be killed by King Wei's men. It was King Pingnan who arrived in time and saved their entire family!"
Xiao Lintian looked at King Wei mockingly: "Prince Wei, you can't say that this king bribed King Pingnan and Chen Buwei, or even everyone in your village came to slander you!"
When King Pingnan heard Xiao Lintian mentioning himself, he came forward from behind and knelt down on one knee.
"Your Majesty, I saw with my own eyes that all fifteen members of Zhu De's family were tied to King Wei's Zhuangzi!"
"I also asked the neighbors near Zhu De's house. They were all kidnapped before the race across the river started!"
"And the people near Wei Wang Zhuangzi can also testify that the night before crossing the river, Wei Wang Zhuangzi came up with three carriages and escorted fifteen members of the Zhu family from the carriages!"
Emperor Wu'an's face was as dark as black, and fifteen people in his family were killed and silenced. This King of Wei really regarded human life as nothing!
As the emperor, he would not dare to act so willfully. How could a mere prince like King Wei be so bold?
King Pingnan would not be bribed, and Emperor Wu'an believed in King Pingnan's words.
"Your Majesty... the common people are greedy for profit. They should not covet the money and promises given by King Wei to help the evildoers!"
Zhu De was shocked and broke into a cold sweat when he heard that his family was going to be killed by King Wei.
He understood that the glory and wealth King Wei had promised him didn't count at all.
If his plan succeeded, causing Western Qin to lose two cities, Emperor Wu'an would definitely be furious and conduct a thorough investigation.
The King of Wei could only keep the secret by killing people and silencing them. How could he allow his family to live and pose a threat to him?
"Your Majesty, the King of Wei also ordered Xiao Xiao to set fire to the boat, intending to burn Prince Yi and his team to death. King Yi was too defensive and Xiao Xiao was unable to bring fire oil to the boat."
"So the King of Wei ordered the little ones to dig through the bottom of the ship in order to sink the ship, causing Prince Yi to lose the game and be beheaded in public!"
Zhu De confessed everything, and he said indignantly: "King Wei said that he didn't know Xiao Xiao, which was all lies. Xiao Xiao was even taken to the study of Prince Wei's Mansion by his butler. The furnishings in his study can be explained clearly! "
As soon as these words came out, none of the ministers present did not understand.
The study is such a powerful place that no one can enter except for close friends.
The King of Wei said that he did not know Zhu De. How could a commoner like Zhu De, who had never been to the King of Wei's study, tell about the decorations of the King of Wei's study?
"You must have found out because you went in secretly to steal! I said something was missing from my study. It turns out that you, a little thief, visited it!"
The king of Wei was so anxious that he accused Zhu De'an of stealing.
Ling Yu immediately seized on King Wei's words and said aggressively.
"Is King Wei telling a joke?...The palace of King Wei is heavily guarded. Zhu De, who has no martial arts skills, was able to march straight into King Wei's study. Are all the guards of King Wei just decorations?"
King Wei did not dare to refute these words casually. If a thief could break into his study at will, wouldn't King Wei be extremely incompetent?
Queen Wei closed her eyes. King Wei's excusing words were unconvincing!
When Queen Wei opened her mouth, she directly brought the topic to herself.
"Ling Yu, Xiao Lintian, you have really good intentions in order to get rid of my mother and son! Well, I would like to hear it. Do you have any witnesses when you accuse me of poisoning the Queen Mother?"
