Facing Lu Yuncheng's questioning, both Jiang Shangshu and Emperor Ming had very ugly expressions on their faces.
They had naturally thought that the death of the little guard was not an accident at all, but a prelude prepared by Lu Yuncheng in advance.
The three brothers had never thought about the victimization of King An's hunting ground. They just wanted to get away for themselves.
What they want is to take today's opportunity to completely tear away all the fig leaves surrounding the death of the eldest prince and let everyone see the truth.
"Your Highness Prince Ling, I think I have never offended you in any way, right? Why do you want to pin such a big crime on me?"
"The fact that King Yan died in battle is a fact that everyone in Daxia knows, but His Highness Prince Ling has mentioned this matter several times, and even lied that there is another hidden reason for this matter?"
Jiang Shangshu was still kneeling on the ground, but when facing Lu Yuncheng, his originally stooped back had straightened up a lot.
"After so many years, is it possible that Your Highness is still unwilling to admit his fault for being greedy for credit and rashly advancing, and wants to force the death of the eldest prince on the old minister?"
After saying these words, Jiang Shangshu returned to his loyal and surrendered look towards Emperor Ming.
I saw him kowtow deeply to Emperor Ming: "Your Majesty! I have never done what His Highness King Ling said. Please trust me and make decisions for me!"
"I have been loyal to His Majesty for so many years and devoted myself to the court. How can I compromise when His Highness Prince Ling slanders me like this?"
Seeing Jiang Shangshu's heartbroken look, and seeing Lu Yuncheng's persistence without giving in, everyone present didn't know for a moment which of the two was telling the truth.
Inside the tent, it suddenly became quiet.
Everyone is waiting for Emperor Ming to speak and see who he will believe.
No one knew that the reason why Emperor Ming remained silent was not because he was thinking, but because he was trying hard to suppress the anger in his heart.
"Prince Ling, do you have any evidence that Prince Yan died in battle?"
This was what Lu Yuncheng was waiting for.
"I do have evidence in my hands that proves that Jiang Shuifu murdered the prince of the dynasty and killed innocent soldiers indiscriminately!"
After the words fell, Lu Yuncheng turned around and took a stack of letters from Liu Yun's hand, and then opened a few of them.
Just when Emperor Ming thought that Lu Yuncheng would hand these letters directly to him, he did not expect that Lu Yuncheng would let Liu Yun and Qingfeng each hold two unfolded letters and walk in front of everyone so that everyone could see them. Be more careful.
The blue veins on Emperor Ming's forehead popped out, and he didn't know that Lu Yuncheng was cutting off his way to keep Jiang Shuifu.
After reading the letters, everyone took a breath of air and did not dare to say anything.
However, when they looked at Jiang Shuifu, they were filled with shock and disbelief.
Lu Yuncheng said loudly: "What a benevolent person the eldest emperor is, he has made great contributions to the establishment of Daxia! When the war started, he was the first to ask for an order to fight, and devoted himself to ensuring the peace of Daxia!"
"Unexpectedly, he was not buried on the battlefield, but died under Jiang Shuifu and Su Yuanrong's plan!"
"These are the letters exchanged between Jiang Shuifu and Su Yuanrong. They have written down how they were afraid of the eldest brother, how they opposed the eldest brother's proposal to his father to reform the court system, and how they planned to plot against the eldest brother. It’s clear!”
"Jiang Shuifu and Su Yuanrong, when the Feiyun Army led by the eldest emperor brother won the battle and were tired of dealing with it, they used tricks to lure me and the eldest emperor brother into the trap that was laid out in advance!"
"The First Emperor Brother and those soldiers never thought that they would die in the hands of their own people, and die in their desires and interests!"
Lu Yun lifted up his robe and knelt down, clasping his hands in his fists: "My son, I beg your father to clear the names of the eldest brother who died in vain and the innocent soldiers, and to behead the culprit Jiang Shuifu!"
As soon as Lu Yuncheng knelt down, King Qi naturally followed suit.
"My son seconded the proposal!"
An Wang sighed on the bed and wanted Su Qingyu to help him get up. Unexpectedly, the moment he raised his hand, Su Qingyu knelt down without hesitation.
So, he could only let Shen Huaide help him get off the bed with difficulty, and then kneel down while holding the edge of the bed.
"I sincerely request my father to clear the names of Brother Yan Wang and the innocent soldiers who died in vain."
As for the sentence of beheading Jiang Shuifu, King An really couldn't say it.
No matter what situation he was in, the fact that Jiang Shuifu was his grandfather was an unchangeable fact.
When Jiang Shuifu saw that King An actually shared the same hatred as Lu Yuncheng, his eyes almost split.
Could his grandson, who had been helping him for many years, be so heartless?
Afterwards, people continued to kneel down with them, begging Emperor Ming to punish Jiang Shuifu.
When the tent became completely quiet, there were only a few people standing.
Emperor Ming clenched his fists and stared angrily.
"Prince Ling, Jiang Shangshu has been working hard for Daxia for decades. For such a big crime, it is better to find out and then convict him."
"Su Yuanrong is dead. How can we tell the authenticity of these letters? Have you been misled by someone with good intentions?"
When he said these words, Emperor Ming looked at Su Qingyu in the corner of the crowd with a vague look.
He has determined that Su Qingyu must be involved in today's events!
This woman usually seems to be a quiet person, but from time to time she can turn the whole court upside down!
If this person is not eliminated, the consequences will be endless!
"What my father said is absolutely true, so in order to prevent my father from worrying too much about this matter, my brothers and I specially found physical evidence."
Having said this, Lu Yuncheng turned his head and looked at Jiang Shuifu: "And the witnesses from back then."
Jiang Shuifu's heart thumped, and he had a bad feeling.
Emperor Ming's face became increasingly ugly.
Although Jiang Shuifu worked hard and made great achievements, he was also the person in the court who understood him best and would obey him.
But this does not mean that this is a chess piece that cannot be discarded.
If it weren't for that important reason, if he were to be abandoned, he would naturally be able to cultivate a second and third Jiang Shuifu...
But right now, he has to save people first.
After presenting the physical evidence, Lu Yuncheng asked Qingfeng to bring over the talented young general.
This is the most important witness, and it is also the witness that Su Yuanrong has hidden for many years!
The moment he saw the young general, Jiang Shuifu knew that he would not be able to defeat Lu Yuncheng today.
"It was Lord Shangshu who asked the younger one to lure His Highness Prince Yan to Antenna Valley!"
This sentence alone was enough to convict Jiang Shuifu of killing the current prince and indiscriminately killing innocent soldiers.
What's more, the young general also recounted the events of that year very clearly.
Listening to the young general's words, everyone seemed to have witnessed the tragic scene that year.
In this way, Jiang Shangshu had a reason to fear the unity of the three kings, and the reason for killing King An was even more obvious.
The purpose was, of course, to prevent the three kings from making this matter public and to expose his crimes to the world.
Now, those who originally wanted to plead for Jiang Shuifu did not dare to say anything.
Even Jiang Lanyin, who was standing outside the tent, bit her lower lip and resisted going in.
She never understood that Lu Yuncheng would push her grandfather into the abyss with his own hands, causing all the glory of the Jiang family to be destroyed today!
From now on, she will no longer be the superior Miss Jiang. It will be much more difficult to climb to the most distinguished position in Daxia than it is now...
