Yunhu nodded and said, "What's the motive? What's the motive?"
Yinzhen's eyes flashed and he said to Wang Shan and others: "You guys go out first. I have something to talk to him alone."
"Hey!" Wang Shan and others quickly agreed and retreated. Just when Yunxiang was about to go out, Yinzhen said: "Old Thirteen, you don't have to get up while you are sitting."
When there were only three of them left in the hall, Yinzhen said coldly: "I know that Hongshi went to see you as soon as he returned to Beijing. Tell me the truth. Did you conspire with Hongshi about the matter between Fuzhou and Hongli?"
A puzzled look flashed across Yunxiang's eyes. Whether Hongshi had gone to see Yunhu had always been a matter of speculation without any substantial evidence. Fourth brother also understood why he suddenly said this now. After thinking for a while, he finally understood. Fourth brother
This was intentional, and the purpose was to trick Yunhu into telling the truth.
Yunxiang was puzzled, but Yunhu was shocked. It was true that Hong Shilai had seen him, but even if he met the attacker later, his identity was not revealed. How could Yinzhen know about it? If Yinzhen knew about Hong Shilai
After meeting him, the promise he made to Hongshi before became empty talk.
Uh, wait, if Yinzhen really found out about this matter, why didn't he touch Hongshi, and why didn't he ask Hongshi, but came to ask himself? Could it be that... he was lying to himself?
Yes, that should be the case. Yinzhen suspected Hongshi, but had no evidence to prove that he was colluding with him, so he came up with such a dirty trick. Oh, I really didn't expect that a dignified emperor could also lie and bluff people.
Thinking like this, he suddenly said: "Then the emperor hopes that I will conspire with the second elder brother?"
Yinzhen said in a cold tone: "I'm asking you now, you'd better answer honestly."
A strange smile appeared on Yunhu's face, "Yes, I conspired with the second elder brother to kill the fourth elder brother to prevent him from competing for the throne with the second elder brother."
If Hongshi were here, he would have fainted on the spot after hearing Yunhu's words.
The doubts that had been lingering in Yinzhen's heart were finally solved. At the same time, a rage of anger emerged from the depths of his heart, and he said ferociously: "Good! That's great! I didn't expect that my son would be so cruel.
hot!"
"The tiger father has no dog son, and the emperor is a dragon. How can the son be simple? To be honest with the emperor, all the strategies were thought up by the second elder brother. I just acted according to the plan. Even the fourth elder brother was also the second elder brother.
My brother killed him with his own hands
"He's a charred corpse." His voice was as weird as his smile, "Now that the emperor knows it, why don't you hurry up and arrest the second elder brother and hold him accountable? He is the person who deserves the most damn, and the emperor should kill him immediately.
To avenge Fourth Elder Brother."
The more Yunxiang listened, the more he felt that something was wrong. If Yunhu really conspired with Hongshi, he shouldn't have said it so easily. You could tell just by looking at his previous denials. It was really strange.
Moreover, he not only confessed to Hongshi, but also kept lobbying his fourth brother to kill Hongshi to avenge Hongli. This is really not like Yunhu's character. Could it be that he...
Thinking of this, he quickly said: "Your Majesty, don't listen to his words. The matter between Fuzhou and the Crown Prince is a huge and sophisticated setup. Based on my understanding of the second elder brother, it is impossible for him to set up such a setup."
"You are wrong. He thought of everything by himself. He is far more powerful than you think." After Yunhu retorted, he continued to say to Yinzhen: "Why haven't you issued an order to kill the brother?
, the person who caused the famine in Fuzhou is captured, is it possible that you still want to keep such a son as your treasure?"
Originally, Yinzhen had already concluded that Hongshi was colluding with Yunhu, but after hearing Yunhu's words, his thoughts were shaken. It was wrong, something was very wrong.
Seeing Yinzhen standing there silently, Yunsi said again: "What's wrong? Are you reluctant to part with this son? Oh, yes, Your Majesty, you have three palaces and six courtyards, but you only have four poor sons. Now the one you like the most
The fourth child is still dead, and there are only three left. If Hongshi is killed again, then only
There are two left. One is from an ordinary background and has low qualifications. The other is still breastfeeding and cannot afford the power of the Qing Dynasty. Hongshi is more suitable. Unfortunately, he has evil intentions and fights with me, my eighth uncle, for the throne.
He conspired to kill his own brother. Your Majesty, do you know why?"
"Why?" Yinzhen asked in a deep voice, with a cold light flashing in his black eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.
Yunhu curled her lips and said with a faint cruel smile: "Because you had a bad intention and took something that shouldn't belong to you. Now this is the retribution sent by God."
As soon as Yunxiang heard this, he knew that he was talking about the throne, and immediately scolded: "Nonsense, the emperor has never taken anything away from you. It's because you have evil intentions. Emperor Ama made it clear before his death that he would not pass on the throne."
Give it to you, but you have been unwilling to give up and committed many villainous acts. If it weren’t for the emperor’s magnanimity, how could you still be standing here based on what you have done.”
Yunxiang's words made Yunhu's eyes twitch slightly, and he sneered: "Magnificent? That sounds nice to say, but unfortunately it's not the case. The fact is that he was afraid of being accused of murdering his brother, so he reluctantly let me stay.
Survive until now." Now that it's become impossible for him to survive, there's nothing to avoid anymore, so he might as well say it openly.
When Yunxiang was about to say more, Yinzhen raised his hand to stop him from speaking, and said at the same time: "Yunxiang, do you really think that's why I let you go?"
"Isn't it?" Yunzhen asked back, but it could be seen from the coldness between his eyebrows that he would not believe it no matter what Yinzhen said.
Staring at Yunzhen, Yinzhen said slowly: "I have never been afraid of being infamy, otherwise I would not have implemented so many new policies. Yes, I really want to kill you, but I am not as cold-blooded as you. I always remember the emperor.
The teachings, do not want to do anything
I did too much. But I didn’t expect that in exchange for my tolerant treatment, you would become even worse. Even if I raise a dog and feed it three times a day, he will shake his head and tail when he sees me. In comparison,
, you are worse than a dog."
There was a trace of anger in Yunhu's eyes, but it disappeared immediately, and he chuckled: "It turns out that the emperor has been looking at the ministers like a dog, but the emperor must not forget that although we are both kings, we are each other.
I am a minister, but the blood flowing in my body is the same, and no one can change this. If I am a dog, then isn’t the emperor the dog’s fourth brother?”
"Bold, how dare you denigrate the Emperor like this." Yunxiang's words only made the smile on Yunhu's face grow thicker, "At this point, what else can I not dare to do? You, on the other hand, have been the Emperor's yes-man all your life.
,Don’t you feel uncomfortable?”
Yinzhen suddenly said: "Old man, I know you have always been unconvinced and lost to me, but whether it was me who took the throne or whether Emperor Ama passed the throne on his deathbed, you should know very well in your heart that I never owe you anything."
