I didn’t instruct them, and no one instigated me. These people made their own decisions and it has nothing to do with me!”
Chen Yong said stubbornly.
Yang Shixun sneered, "Chen Yong, they have already confessed you, but you still dare to lie in front of the emperor! Do you still have the emperor in your eyes, and do you have the king's law?"
Yun Ruoyue said: "Your Majesty, Chen Yong has no enmity with King Li, and he will not instruct people to do this for no reason.
I thought, this Chen Yong must have been bribed by someone. Someone wanted to use his hand to get rid of King Li and break the emperor's arm! I begged the emperor to order a thorough investigation to find out the mastermind behind the scenes and return the favor to the prince.
justice!"
Hearing this, Chen Yong's body trembled violently.
Of course the person behind him cannot be found out, otherwise his whole family will die!
His family is in Su Ming's hands, how dare he betray him!
He hurriedly said: "The guilty minister is here.
Your Majesty, the guilty minister is the one responsible for this matter, and it has nothing to do with anyone else."
In fact, when he was escorted to Beijing, he knew that in order to protect the people behind him, he had to confess.
He refused to plead guilty just now, but he just wanted to struggle again. Now that he knew that there was no hope of struggling, he quickly stood up and took the blame.
"You are in charge alone?
They all said that you have no grudge against King Li, so why did you instigate people to frame him?"
Emperor Hongyuan said angrily.
Chen Yong said hurriedly: "Because... because the guilty minister occupied the farmers' farmland before, King Li punished the guilty minister and asked the guilty minister to return the farmland to the people.
The guilty minister felt resentful towards him, so he bribed some students and gangsters to frame him in an attempt to destroy his reputation and vent his dissatisfaction!"
Yun Ruoyue immediately said: "What a good Chen Yong, it's your fault that you invaded other people's farmland, and the prince's punishment for you is just a matter of law.
You actually harbored a grudge against him and instigated these people to slander him for treason, causing the prince to be unjustly accused. What crime should you be guilty of?"
Having said this, Yun Ruoyue turned around and raised her hands towards Emperor Hongyuan, "Your Majesty, Chen Yong has confessed his crime. Can I prove my husband's innocence now?"
Emperor Hongyuan had a dark look on his face. He originally wanted to use this crime of rebellion to contain Chu Xuanchen.
Now that Chen Yong has confessed on the spot, this trick can no longer be used.
He said coldly: "Of course, I am a wise king. If Chen Yong dares to slander King Li, I will naturally clear King Li's name."
At this time, Yun Ruoyue suddenly said: "Your Majesty, since Chen Yong was the instigator of this matter, why did Mr. Su collect a lot of witnesses and physical evidence before, and what happened to those evidences?"
Yun Ruoyue knew full well that Su Ming was the mastermind behind this incident, but she had no evidence.
But she also wanted to ask clearly about the false evidence and completely clear Chu Xuanchen's grievances.
Chen Yong immediately panicked and said: "The guilty minister is recruiting! Your Majesty, in fact, those witnesses and physical evidence are all fake. They were all fabricated by the guilty minister.
The guilty minister did this, firstly to protect himself, and secondly to frame King Li. All of this is the guilty minister’s fault and has nothing to do with anyone else!”
Yun Ruoyue sneered, she had expected that Chen Yong would come out to take the blame for Su Ming.
After all, Chen Yong is just a small character. Such a small character is usually a scapegoat used to take the blame!
Just as she was about to continue asking, Emperor Hongyuan had already glared at Chen Yong, "How brave! Chen Yong, as an official, you know how to break the law and how dare you instigate people to frame King Li. You deserve death! Someone, drag him down."
, beheaded!"
This Chen Yong must be killed quickly to avoid being asked anything by Yun Ruoyue!
