"You... are talking nonsense... I... didn't..."
As soon as Ziyi finished speaking, they heard a weak voice reaching their ears. Everyone followed the sound and found that Yi Qianzhang had woken up at some point. The few of them looked at each other, wondering how much he heard of what they just said.
"My lords!" Ziyi glanced at Yi Qianzhang, who was struggling to get up. "The villain is bold and demands to confront Mr. Yi about the villain's statement just now. The villain understands that no matter what he says, the villain is on one side. The words are not enough for your Lordships to accept."
"It's not necessary."
"Sir!" Both Ziyi and Yi Qianzhang looked at Ah Piao anxiously, "Sir, I mean..."
"Don't worry, listen to what I have to say." Ah Piao waved her hand, "The dispute between you two has nothing to do with me and the matter I am investigating, right?" Seeing Ziyi nod, she continued, " What I want to know is your role in the assassination of His Highness. Just explain everything you need to explain clearly, including how your master planned it. As for any misunderstanding between you, that is You resolve your own matters yourself.”
"But sir..." Yi Qianzhang took two deep breaths and said weakly, "Now that I have said it, if you don't understand why the master hates me and why he puts me to death, I... I won’t die with my eyes closed.”
"So what if you know? If you know, can you attack your master?" Seeing Yi Qianzhang's silence, Ah Piao thought for a while and sighed softly, "Of course, I also hope to know why His Highness Qingmu Such humiliation to Mr. Yi is indeed surprising given His Highness Qingmu’s polite and virtuous corporal style.”
"Sir..." Ziyi heard A Piao's words and looked at her anxiously, "Sir, please don't..."
"Don't be anxious. Didn't you just say that you don't want to listen to what your family says?" A'Piao smiled, turned to look at Yi Qianzhang and said, "Sir, while this kid is telling you, you might as well calm down and think carefully. When I was in high school, when I was young and frivolous, when I was arrogant, did I say some extreme words or do some extreme things?"
"Well, I..." Yi Qianzhang sighed softly, "I..."
"Why did your husband quit his job back then? Why did he stay away from Yiqing Prefecture and travel around the mountains and rivers? You should know all the reasons, right? Even if you don't tell us, we will know. "A'Piao smiled at Yi Qianzhang, "Just as you thought, I have sent people to check the files from that year. Although many years have passed, these files are still there. At that time, what things did you do, and were you involved in some things? As long as you look through these files, you can still get the results, you think... right?"
"...Yes, what you said is true, but I was wrongly accused back then. I..." Yi Qianzhang couldn't go on. Although he was probably framed back then, it was still due to his greed. Otherwise, You won't be fooled so easily.
Ah Piao looked at Yi Qianzhang, who was a little guilty, with a sneer, turned to look at Ziyi, and said, "Go on, what did your Highness do to Yi Qianzhang after he recovered from his illness, and what methods did he use?" .”
"Sir, I..." Yi Qianzhang reluctantly sat up with the help of the guards on both sides, "I want to..."
"Mr. Yi, I have just said that the problems between you should be resolved privately and have nothing to do with me. I have no obligation to mediate conflicts for you. Please don't let me repeat the same words again. If you cause trouble, If you are angry with me, you will bear the consequences." Ah Piao looked at Yi Qianzhang, and saw his expression was still very insistent, and continued, "Mr. Yi, I will give you two choices, either, you continue to listen, don't worry. If you interrupt, wait until this kid has finished speaking before you express your own thoughts, or I will have someone knock you out." She paused, "Which one do you choose?"
Yi Qianzhang could see that Ah Piao was already very impatient with her, and the two generals next to her also had very unkind expressions. In addition, he had already angered them by assassinating Wanyan Ping, so he might have said something wrong. My life will be lost. He actually knew very well in his heart that what these people said before was very correct. Even if they didn't confess, these people could find out the truth. Therefore, Yi Qianzhang thought about it and decided to continue listening. This was in his favor.
"Very good, this is a wise choice." Ah Piao nodded and looked at Ziyi, "You continue."
"Yes, sir!" Ziyi glanced at Yi Qianzhang and sneered, "It will be more than three months later when our Highness recovers from his illness, recovers his health, and can go out. By that time, Mr. Yi will have already Granted an official position. Although the official position is not large, as a principal of the Household Department, he has considerable power. The Household Department was still controlled by the old prince at that time, so..."
"His Royal Highness Aoki did some tricks, didn't he?"
"Yes." Ziyi nodded, "The Ministry of Revenue is in charge of the money bags of the Kingdom of Jin. This is probably the biggest disadvantage in the eyes of all the students who have just entered the official career. And only Xinke can have such good luck. The number one scholar. If the number one scholar is not willing to enter the household department, then he will be postponed to the second place or the third place. However, the three top picks at that time all performed very well. After discussing with several important ministers, the late king stuffed the three great talents into the household department, thinking We must give them a good experience. The performance of the three talented people in the household department was very good at first. They were strict and followed the rules. But this kind of life did not last long, and His Highness received news that the person with higher eyesight Tanhualang was attracted by the princess of the Sixth Prince's family and wanted Tanhualang to marry him, but Tanhualang was unwilling, so the princess of the Sixth Prince's family thought of a way to create a small bribery case for him. After all, the Tanhualang was a scholar, and he had just started to become an official. He had no such experience, so he was naturally very scared. Therefore, when someone gave him an idea, he asked him to ask the Sixth Prince to avoid this disaster. , and went without saying a word. No matter what request the Sixth Prince made, he agreed."
"Including marrying into the Sixth Prince's Mansion?"
"Yes! The princess got her wish, and the man who visited the flower shop was no longer in trouble."
"However, this incident gave His Highness Aoki the inspiration to start thinking of ways to deal with Mr. Yi, right?"
"Yes!" Ziyi nodded, "However, it will not be as simple and crude as the princess. When they got married, everyone knew that the princess was plotting against the beauty. His Highness did not want to do this. What he wanted was to proceed step by step. Let everyone not notice that this is His Highness’s manipulation.”
