Yuan Qing Ling was slightly startled. She didn't know what Emperor Ming Yuan meant. He hesitated for a while and said, "Well...only my daughter-in-law has seen this picture, and no one else has."
"Have you ever seen the old lady from the Great Zhou Dynasty who lives in your residence?" Emperor Ming Yuan asked with a strange light in his eyes.
Yuan Qingling couldn't figure out what he was thinking, so she shook her head gently and did not answer.
"Have you seen it? She also said it was fake?" Emperor Ming Yuan asked again tentatively.
As soon as she said this, Yuan Qingling also knew what he meant. He might not believe her words, but he was willing to get off the donkey.
Emperor Ming Yuan's eyes were heavy and he continued: "This old lady is someone close to Empress Dowager Long of the Zhou Dynasty. She also participated in the research of these weapons, right?"
Yuan Qingling was silent after hearing this, but her heart was overflowing with sadness. The son wanted me to die, but the father had to hold back the grief and anger to find a way out for him. If Yu Wenjun didn't understand this time
It would be a pity to die if you start a new life.
"Yes or no?" Emperor Ming Yuan's voice was slightly higher.
Yuan Qingling couldn't help but shed tears, nodded and choked with sobs: "Yes!"
Emperor Ming Yuan looked at her, "Why are you crying?"
Yuan Qingling wiped her tears and said, "The sand blinded my eyes when I entered the palace."
Emperor Ming Yuan remained silent for a while, then raised his hand, his voice full of exhaustion, "Go ahead, I'm... very good."
Yuan Qingling burst into tears again and hurriedly resigned.
Yu Wenhao, who was waiting outside, saw his eyes turned red when Yuan Qingling came out. He thought he was being scolded by his father, so he asked: "Father doesn't believe you, does he?"
Yuan Qingling looked at Yu Wenhao, "He didn't believe it. He didn't even ask, but he told grandma and I to say that the military map was fake."
Yu Wenhao was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and without saying anything, he took her hand and walked out.
When the case was retried, both Yuan Qingling and Grandma Yuan came to the court to testify that the military map found in Prince Ji's Mansion was fake.
Before going to court, Yuan Qing Ling had already told Grandma Yuan about the mistakes and omissions. Therefore, in front of the Minister of the Ministry of Justice and the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, Grandma Yuan pointed them out and said that it would be impossible to cast according to the drawings.
The casting was successful, but Grandma Yuan said less about the chariot, because that was what Yuan Qingling told her, and she didn't know much about it herself. However, Grandma gave her opinions on the manufacture of the cannon, and the combination of saltpeter and sulfur was wrong.
, based on the principles of firecrackers, we can tell that this drawing is fake, not to mention the construction of the gun body, it is simply impossible to make a weapon with high destructive power, even worse than firecrackers.
There were many officials present to participate in the trial, several of whom were highly respected veterans of the court and some of the royal family members. Naturally, they were appointed by Emperor Ming Yuan.
They originally didn't know that this old lady from the Great Zhou Dynasty had participated in the manufacture of weapons, but now they heard her analysis was clear and logical, and it seemed to be true.
Since the military map is fake, and Yu Wenhao summoned people from Prince Ji's Mansion to testify, saying that someone indeed sneaked into Prince Ji's Mansion that night, and the couple behind him, it is possible that they were framed.
The whole thing did not involve Chu Mingyang. This line was a hidden line. Yu Wenhao did not move for the time being. He just informed Chu Shoufu and asked him to keep an eye on her to see who she was in contact with.
No one knows the truth of the case, but the evidence tends to suggest that Yu Wenjun was framed. In addition, Yu Wenjun was the eldest son of the emperor. If he was really executed for the crime of treason, it would be a great tragedy for the Northern Tang Dynasty.
.
After discussing with the jurors, the three presiding officers decided to accept the testimony of Grandma Yuan and Yuan Qingling and restore Yu Wenjun's innocence.
However, although he did not steal the military map, the cursed people in the secret room could not be washed away. His home was ransacked and his mansion was confiscated. He was demoted to a commoner. After working for so long, he fell into a trap.
