Zhu Jihuang stood aside and secretly looked at Chen Kan and Li Jinglong.
Zhu Jihuang couldn't understand their conversation.
But his intuition told him that what Li Jinglong had in his hands was probably the key to whether he could become the King of Jin.
So he knelt down beside Li Jinglong without hesitation, reached out and hugged Li Jinglong's thigh, and shouted: "Cousin, take a look, give me a look."
Li Jinglong and Chen Kan were stunned at the same time.
Is this Zhu Jihuang crazy?
"go away."
Li Jinglong glanced at Zhu Jihuang with disgust.
There was no respect for this heir in his words.
You know, dandies are also divided into different levels.
A meritorious second generation like Li Jinglong inherited the title of Duke.
I have always looked down upon a bastard like Zhu Jihuang.
Even if Zhu Jihuang's surname is Zhu, his surname is Li.
"Get out of here, don't let me talk about business."
Li Jinglong's brows furrowed tightly. He wondered, how could a person be such a fool?
But Zhu Jihuang held Li Jinglong's thigh and refused to let go, turning a deaf ear to Li Jinglong's curses.
Chen Kan was very interested in this scene. One idiot actually disliked another idiot. It was so novel that no one would believe it.
"Huh~"
Li Jinglong took a deep breath.
Then he looked at Chen Kan and said slowly: "I'm just here to tell you that in a few days, you will be able to get out of this hellish place. Now that I have finished speaking, go out and clean up the door first."
Chen Kan nodded: "Master, please help yourself."
Li Jinglong limped and dragged Zhu Jihuang, who was rooted in his legs, out of the prison. A moment later, a sound like a slaughtering pig sounded outside the door.
Chen Kan turned a deaf ear to Zhu Jihuang's screams, but felt a little emotional in his heart.
Zhu Di is really ruthless, showing no mercy to his own nephew.
Of course, it was not Zhu Yunwen who Chen Kan lamented, but Zhu Jixi.
Originally, Chen Kan just wanted Huang Gouer to bring Zhu Jihuang to the capital, frame him in front of Zhu Jixi in front of Zhu Di, and then use Fang Xiaoru's help to demote Zhu Jixi to a commoner, and then find a way to kill him.
But now that Zhu Di has taken action, even the Chief Envoy of Shanxi Province is involved.
It is difficult for Zhu Jixi not to die.
With emotion, Chen Kan only wished that he could not witness this scene that will surely go down in history.
After all, it was his first enemy who was about to meet his end. Chen Kan felt deeply regretful that he could not witness it with his own eyes.
...
Time came to the next day unknowingly. In the splendid palace hall, Zhu Jixi was impassionedly stating the reasons why he had to return to the fiefdom, why his soldiers and horses could not be without generals for a day, and why the people of the fiefdom were waiting for food. .
But after he finished explaining a lot of reasons with a dry mouth, the expected "accuracy" didn't come yet.
Zhu Jixi couldn't help but raise his head and secretly take a look at Zhu Di's expression.
I saw Zhu Di looking at him with his head down expressionlessly.
Somehow, Zhu Jixi suddenly felt an uneasy feeling in his heart.
"Your Majesty, I have this memorial for you, Jinyiwei Zhenfu Envoy Li Jinglong."
At this moment, Li Jinglong stood up.
Before Zhu Di could speak, Li Jinglong looked at Zhu Jixi and said, "Wei Chen received a report saying that His Royal Highness the King of Jin secretly hid weapons and recruited troops in the feudal country with the intention of conspiring to rebel!"
"What?"
"How can it be?"
As soon as Li Jinglong said these words, it was like a bomb dropped into the water, and a pot exploded in the court hall.
When Zhu Jixi heard this, he felt dizzy for a moment. He became unsteady and almost fell to the ground.
In an instant, his face turned pale and bloodless.
"How could this happen? How could this happen? Who leaked the news?"
Zhu Jixi couldn't figure it out. His plan should be seamless.
For this reason, he did not hesitate to sacrifice his own life and went to Beijing alone just to attract everyone's attention.
Li Jinglong has no reason to know. Could it be them? It's impossible. They will only hate Zhu Di more than me.
"Prince Jin, Prince Jin?"
Zhu Jixi was so flustered at this time that he didn't hear even Zhu Di called him several times.
Zhu Jixi's distraught appearance immediately aroused Zhu Di's suspicion.
Could it be that Zhu Jixi was really doing something shameful?
"Prince Jin, what do you have to say?"
Zhu Di raised his voice.
When Zhu Jixi heard this, his knees softened and he collapsed to the ground.
"Your Majesty, I am wronged."
"This is a trap. Yes, it's them, the Jinyiwei who are trapping the minister."
Zhu Jixi was sweating profusely, pointed at Li Jinglong and screamed loudly: "Fake, you dare to frame me. Your Majesty, I want to join the Jin Yiwei and Shanxi Chief Secretary. They framed the prince, and they are conspiring against each other."
Li Jinglong glanced at Zhu Jixi with pity, stepped forward and cupped his hands towards Zhu Di and said: "Your Majesty, I am not setting up a trap. The witness that exposed His Royal Highness Jin's rebellion this time is outside the palace. Is it true or false? Please call him into the hall to ask. I know that in addition, I have in my hands a joint report of the Chief Secretary of Shanxi Province, Zhou Jing, and Zhang Chun, for your Majesty's inspection."
Hearing this, the courtiers immediately started whispering.
The eyes looking at Zhu Jixi were full of astonishment.
How could His Highness the King of Jin, who had always had a poor reputation since the founding of the Wen Dynasty, rebel?
The palace attendant took the memorial from Li Jinglong and presented it to Zhu Di. After Zhu Di flipped through it, his face instantly darkened.
After reading it, he handed the memorial to the palace servants and said coldly: "Circuit to all the ministers."
The eunuch did not dare to neglect and came to Fang Xiaoru holding the memorial.
Now Fang Xiaoru is a heavenly official in the Ministry of Personnel, and there was no prime minister in the Ming Dynasty, so he is the head of the hundred officials.
After reading the memorial, Fang Xiaoru nodded and said, "It was indeed written by the Chief Envoy of Shanxi Province."
Then he handed the memorial to Rujun, Minister of the Ministry of War, and said no more.
After all the civil and military officials read the memorial.
Zhu Di looked at Li Jinglong again and said, "Didn't you say there are witnesses? Let's announce it."
"Xuan Zhaode King Zhu Jihuang paid an audience."
When he heard the name Zhu Jihuang, Zhu Jixi was completely desperate.
No matter how hard he calculated, he never expected that his brother, who had accomplished nothing, would interfere with it.
But my idiot brother spends his days either eating, drinking, prostitution, gambling or getting into trouble. There is no reason for him to know his plan, right?
Zhu Di, who was sitting on the dragon chair, saw Zhu Jixi's desperate expression and became even more confused.
As the saying goes, the person who wronged you knows better than you yourself how wronged you are.
The courtiers didn't know, but Zhu Di knew that the scene in front of him was just a big show performed by Chen Kan and himself.
But why does Zhu Jixi look like there is something really wrong in his heart?
Could it be that his eldest nephew really did something shameful behind his back?
