After hearing what Han Zeng said, Shao Xi secretly scolded him for being shameless. He had obviously planned everything, but at this time he still had the nerve to condemn himself in public, showing his loyalty and patriotism. He had seen so many shameless people. , I have never seen such a shameless person!

However, I cursed in my heart and pretended to cooperate with him on the surface.

"Master Xiangguo, I know that you and the general have cherished each other for so many years as officials in the same court. If I don't have proof in my hands, I don't dare to talk nonsense. Originally, I didn't know about this, but the general's impulsive move made me By chance, a secret letter written from the Jingyuan Dynasty to the general was found from the assassin. I will not disclose the content of the secret letter here, but leave it to the Holy Lord to make a decision!"

When the secret message was mentioned, a hint of joy flashed in Han Zeng's eyes.

Finally, we have to talk about the topic. Although this secret letter may not necessarily lead to Fu Zuoliang's death, it will definitely arouse Zhao Hongjin's suspicion, strip him of his power, and expel him from the court and prohibit him from participating in politics.

Thinking of this, Han Zeng felt inexplicably excited.

Hearing this news, there was another commotion in the Pinglan Palace, and the ministers below began to talk at once. Unexpectedly, the evidence just mentioned by the Jingyuan envoy turned out to be a secret letter. If it was a secret letter, The content is true, I'm afraid Fu Zuoliang will be unable to defend himself.

Zhao Hongjin interrupted at this time: "Shao Xi, you said that you found Jing Yuanguo's secret letter to the general from the assassin, but why did this letter appear on the assassin? Did someone have to carry something special with him when he was assassinating? Are you holding this letter? Doesn’t this further prove that there is a suspicion of frame-up? "

Shao Xi cupped his hands and replied: "Reporting to the Holy Lord, as for the specific reason why this secret message appeared on the assassin, I dare not speculate, but there is also a possibility that the person who sent the message was on his way back to Yongchuan City. Encountering a team preparing for an assassination, he was temporarily pulled into the team to participate in the assassination operation. Since this was a secret letter, the person who sent the letter could not clearly say that he wanted to deliver the letter back to the city, so he could only participate in the operation, but did not want to be involved in the operation. He lost his life because others did not know that he had a secret letter, so the letter was not taken away."

Although this explanation cannot be said to be very reasonable, it is indeed easy to accept. Such a confidential matter can only be leaked because of some coincidences, and coincidences often do not seem reasonable, otherwise it would not be called a coincidence. .

If something is explained seamlessly from beginning to end, it will appear too deliberate, and it will make people more likely to suspect that it was planned in advance. If there are occasional unexpected situations, such as some coincidences, it will make people even more confused. It is easy for people to believe the truth of this matter.

Some people have done all their tricks but are seen through at a glance, just because they have considered all possibilities and plugged all loopholes, which makes people feel that this is too unreal.

Flaws are what make a plan real, and an imperfect plan is truly a perfect plan.

While Shao Xi was answering, he had taken out the secret letter from his arms and handed it to the eunuch to forward to Zhao Hongjin. Zhao Hongjin took the secret letter, unfolded it, read it several times, and put it on the Long Case. Let go and turn to look at Fu Zuoliang.

"This secret letter does not seem to be a forgery. General, I now need you to give an explanation. Neither the late emperor nor I have treated you badly. Why do you collude with foreign countries, deliberately launch wars, and participate in the internal affairs of other countries?" ? Is it true, as stated in the letter, that after the imperial power in the Jingyuan Dynasty changes hands in the future, he will help you overthrow me and seize my southern Zhao country?"

At this time, Fu Zuoliang also quickly walked to the center of the hall, raised his hands above his head, bent down and knelt on the ground, feeling extremely excited.

"Please Holy Master, please look into this matter clearly. Someone must have framed me. I really don't know that such a letter exists. Someone must have done this deliberately. The purpose is to alienate you, my king and my ministers, and profit from it. Holy Master must not It’s easy to believe. The veteran’s loyalty to Nan Zhao can be felt by heaven and earth, but also by the sun and the moon. The veteran has never had any second thoughts since he followed the late emperor. For the sake of our country and country in Southern Zhao, the veteran will go through fire and water without any hesitation. I also hope that the Holy Lord will show my wisdom. , and restore the old minister's innocence."

Zhao Hongjin nodded, pretending to handle the matter carefully, and turned to Shao Xi and said: "Shao Xi, did you hear it? The general also said that he had never read this letter, and he didn't even know it. Knowing the existence of this letter, since he didn't even know about it, where did this deliberate collusion and intention to treason begin? Could it be that some people in the Jingyuan Dynasty wanted to seek power with the help of the general? So you are writing this letter with the intention of bribing the general, but the general himself does not know about it? You found this letter from the assassin. Even if he is the one who sent the letter, if this letter does not reach the hands of the general, it does not prove that the general does not care about me. Loyal?"

At this time, Han Zeng pretended to be a good guy and agreed with Zhao Hongjin's words: "What the Holy Lord said is true! Since this letter has not reached the hands of the general, it cannot prove that the general has colluded with foreign countries. You cannot say that others If you want to cooperate with the general, it means that the general is cooperating with others, right? Wouldn't this be an injustice to a good person? The veteran also feels that this matter is still open to discussion."

Seeing that Zhao Hongjin and Han Zeng both said this, all the civil and military officials in the palace also agreed.

For them, it doesn’t really matter who is right. What’s important is that you must choose the right position at this time. If you sit with your butt crooked, there will be no good fruit behind you, so they all agreed loudly, and some even Chanting "Holy Lord, Holy Ming".

The idea of ​​​​these people is also quite shameless, that is, regardless of who is right or wrong between the prime minister and the general, there is always nothing wrong with siding with the emperor.

No matter which dynasty, which generation or country it is in, most of the ministers in the dynasty are people who protect their lives wisely and have a simple meal. Those who truly care about the country and the people and can become the pillars of the country will always be a minority, but it is these few people who have devoted their whole lives. After working hard, it is precisely the mediocre people who enjoy the results in the end.

Shao Xi became more energetic when he saw how compactly the scene was acted out by the few of them.

He took a step forward and said to Zhao Hongjin and Han Zeng: "As the Holy Lord and the Prime Minister said, before this letter reaches the hands of the general, it cannot prove what the general has done. But the problem now lies with the person who sent the letter. . If the person who sent the message was a Jingyuan countryman, then everything would make sense, but the person who sent the message happened to be from Nan Zhao, a soldier from Nan Zhao, and he also participated in the assassination of the mission, and the assassination of the mission It was the General who was responsible for what happened, which proves that the person who sent the message was a person under the General. Since this person is a person under the General, it proves that this secret letter was delivered here through the hands of the person who sent the letter from Jing Yuanguo. This person went to receive this secret letter. So, here is the doubt. If the general did not know this, why would he send his men to receive this letter? Since he took the initiative to send someone to receive this letter, then It proves that the general has been in contact with people in the Jingyuan Dynasty before. He took the initiative to send someone to receive this letter to know the next plan. Because of this, I will say that the general has a secret conspiracy with people in our court. The intention is evil, I wonder if I made it clear enough?”

After analyzing Shao Xi's explanation, both Zhao Hongjin and Han Zeng felt that this statement was very reasonable. Originally, their purpose was to establish the truth about Fu Zuoliang's collusion with foreign countries. Now that Shao Xi has given such a reasonable statement, If they continued to pester, they would be causing trouble for themselves, so both of them were speechless at this time, creating an irrefutable state for Shao Xi's statement.

The purpose of this is simply to convince His Highness's ministers and no longer raise any objections.

At this time, Fu Zuoliang stared straight at Shao Xi with two big eyes. If he hadn't planned it before, he really suspected that Shao Xi was helping Han Zeng frame him.

Shao Xi's ability to make things up out of nothing and fabricate facts is really extraordinary. He can really tell a thing that was fabricated out of thin air as if it really happened.

Fu Zuoliang felt scared at this time! Fortunately, he was cooperating with Shao Xi, otherwise if this kid really wanted to frame him, he might not be able to explain it clearly even if he was full of words.

From the first time they met Shao Xi told him the entire plan to help him deal with Han Zeng, to the time Shao Xi used secret letters to complete the plan, the whole process was seamless and flawless. No one could have imagined that he would meet with Fu Sa Liang is in the same group.

horrible! The young man in front of me is really terrifying! Thinking about it now, the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries is not a bad thing. Otherwise, if someone like Shao Xi wanted to deal with Nan Zhao, it would be difficult for Nan Zhao to find someone who could compete with him.

At this time, the Pinglan Palace was quiet, and one could even hear the breathing of everyone. No one dared to speak. Fu Zuoliang was now unable to argue, and was only waiting for Zhao Hongjin to make the final decision.

Although this situation was within the plan, Fu Zuoliang still felt that he was a coward. He was so inexplicably accused of treason and rebellion. Let alone whether he wanted to explain it, he couldn't explain it at all now, and he couldn't explain it. Cleared.

Zhao Hongjin sighed heavily, picked up the secret letter on the Long Case and looked at it. Finally, as if he had made a lot of determination, he put the secret letter down and looked up at Fu Zuoliang.

"General, now that all the witnesses and physical evidence are here, I think you no longer need to defend this matter. The late emperor regarded you as a brother, and now I regard you as an uncle, but I didn't expect you to do such a thing. Come on, I am really disappointed. However, since you are a veteran of the previous dynasty and are very kind to me and the late emperor, I do not want to embarrass you. From now on, I will remove you from the position of Assistant Minister. , you were born in the army, so go back to the army! It is your duty to lead troops to fight. I will retain your position as general and return to Haicheng where I was stationed to help me train my troops! In your memory You are already old and you are an accomplished veteran, so I will arrange for the red and purple flag guards to go to Haicheng with you. I hope you will cultivate your mind and nature in the future, reflect on yourself, and do your best."
