Chapter 1159 Plead guilty

Hongli said in a gentle voice: "What's wrong, don't you want to talk about it?" Before the man could speak, he suddenly clapped his hands and said with a cold smile: "I really can't see that you ruffians are so loyal.

Okay, I will grant you my wish! There are seven more of you on your left and right, and you will be more

Not one more, not less than you." Before Hongli could call the man, the man hurriedly said: "No! Your Majesty, don't kill the common people, the common people are willing to speak, willing to speak!" He spoke eagerly, fearing that he would be a step too late.

He would be dead. What just happened really frightened him out of his wits!

But as soon as these words came out, it was Xu Ming and Yehenala's turn to be frightened. They never imagined that Hongli would use such cruel and ruthless methods to force them to speak.

Hongli didn't say much to him, and only said one word, "Speak!"

If the man was granted amnesty, he quickly swallowed his saliva and said: "The common people went to the Temple of Heaven at the request of Mr. Xu Ming. He said that if it doesn't rain, let the common people incite the common people and say that the Queen

The empress is a disaster star because she was

This severe drought will only happen after he is enthroned! Mr. Xu Ming said that as long as the common people do what he said, everyone can get one hundred taels of silver, and the common people will be sent out of the capital afterwards." He was afraid of Hongli.

Condemned, everything was said in one fell swoop.

Xu Ming was horrified and said to Hongli: "Your Majesty, there is absolutely no such thing. Don't listen to this untouchable's nonsense. I am wronged!" With that said, he pointed at the man again and gritted his teeth and said: "You are so big.

You are so brave, you actually dare to talk nonsense in front of the emperor, aren't you afraid of being executed by Ling Chi?"

"The common people are not talking nonsense, everything is true." This time it was not the person who spoke, but the person kneeling at the back. He also tore open the middle layer of his clothes and took out a banknote, "Your Majesty, this is

It is to describe the banknotes that your Excellency gave to the common people, one hundred taels each."

After him, the other six people also tore their clothes apart and took out the banknotes from the mezzanine. No more, no less, exactly seven hundred taels. As for Niu Da, who had been cut into pieces by five horses, I guess he also had the same banknote in his clothes.

ticket.

Li Wenzhong suddenly said: "It turns out to be hidden here, no wonder I had to find it."

After these people were taken into Shuntian Mansion, Li Wenzhong sent people to search their bodies, but except for some scattered silver, no other silver coins were found, and no evidence that they had been bribed was found. Because of this, he

The execution has not been carried out for a long time.

Sixi took the banknotes and handed them to Hongli. After the latter looked at them one by one, he said coldly: "The banknotes of Baotong Bank have records of all the banknotes. Just send someone to check."

You will know who these banknotes are from; Sixi, ask Liu Hu to check immediately!"

"Baotong bank account?" Xu Ming said with a look of astonishment: "Impossible, I obviously gave it to someone whose identity cannot be found..." Halfway through, he stopped talking in a hurry, but it was too late, and he looked at it in panic.

Hongli had a sneer on his face, but the fear and regret in his heart almost tore him into pieces.

"Is Xu Jiaqing finally willing to tell the truth? Yes, these banknotes are indeed not from Baotong Bank, but from Shunfu Bank. Unless the banknotes are thousands of taels, they will not keep any records.

, it is most convenient to do some shady things." With these words, seven silver notes fell from Hongli's hands, and the big two words "Shunfu" on the top of the banknotes looked so dazzling.

Xu Ming's legs were weak and he knelt on the ground. His pale lips kept trembling, but he couldn't spit out a word. He kept telling himself to be cautious and think carefully before saying anything. Unexpectedly, he was still Hongli had tricked him into saying something, and now... even if he broke his lips, he would never be able to escape.

Hongli walked up to the blue-faced Yehenala and said coldly: "Didn't Concubine Shu keep saying that this matter has nothing to do with you and that you were framed? Why don't you speak now?"

Concubine Shu lowered her head and did not dare to look at her. However, Hongli was not prepared to let her go like this. He raised his hand to clamp her chin and forced her to face him. His dark eyes contained murderous intent as sharp as a sword. , "Concubine Shu, you incited civil unrest and murdered the queen. Can you tell me how to settle this account?"

"My concubine did not..." As soon as she said a few words, Yehenala felt that the hand clamping her chin was a little tighter than before. The pain was so painful that she could not speak, and her bones seemed to be crushed.

The corners of Hongli's lips curled up in an arc as cold as ice, "You have all the witnesses and material evidence, but you still want to deny it? Do you want to wait until I give you death before you are willing to tell the truth?"

"Your Majesty, calm down!" Xu Ming gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "Everything was done by the guilty minister alone and has nothing to do with Concubine Shu. Please don't accuse Concubine Shu unjustly!" Now that the matter has come to this, someone must plead guilty. , rather than both of them being accused and cutting off the path of the Yehenala clan, it would be better for him to bear all the charges so that Concubine Shu could try to protect the clan. She stated that she did not know about the letter, otherwise she would have known about it. No matter what he said or did, it was useless. Neither he nor Yehenala could escape!

Mrs. Hu, who had never spoken before, stepped forward and said: "I understand Master Xu's desire to save his daughter, but Concubine Shu conspired with you and committed a heinous crime. No one can save her!"

Xu Ming glanced at her, kowtowed to Hongli and said, "The guilty minister did not deceive the emperor. Concubine Shu did not know about it. Someone deliberately wanted to frame her. If the emperor wants to kill, he will kill one of the ministers. Please do not vent your anger on Concubine Shu!" "

Hongli snorted coldly and said: "She doesn't know? She even wants to send a message out of the palace, asking you to try to kill the eight people imprisoned in Shuntian Mansion. If this is called ignorance, I really don't know what it means to know."

Xu Ming looked at Yehenala in astonishment. The latter stood there with a pale face. After a long time, he nodded slowly and said, "Yes, I conspired with Amma to take advantage of this rain prayer to make the queen suffer from the world." revile!"

As Hongli said, there were all the witnesses and physical evidence, so she had no choice but to deny it.

"Bitch!" Hongli slapped her hard on the face. Before he could get rid of his hatred, he slapped her on the other side of the face with his backhand and said in a hateful voice: "You are so brave, you dare to murder the queen!"

Hu said in a cold voice: "What you did was not only to make the queen reviled by the world, but also to cause the queen to become pregnant and kill two people. Fortunately, God bless you and your conspiracy did not succeed!"

"Shut up!" Yehenala pointed at Hu with all her strength, with resentment in her eyes, "I want to harm the queen, and you are my accomplice!"

Under Hongli's surprised face, she knelt down and said word by word: "Your Majesty, during this prayer for rain, it was not just my concubine who wanted to harm the Queen, but also Concubine Ying; it was she who encouraged the Queen to take the initiative She asked Ying to go pray for rain. It was she who coaxed the concubine into writing this letter. She is the one who deserves to die!" After a moment of pause, she added: "If not for this, how could she have known that Chuntao had this letter hidden on her body and sent the letter to her? Li Si and the others came to intercept her; seeing that she couldn't harm the queen, she wanted to harm her concubines again. Hu Yunyi is the most hypocritical and treacherous person, and the one who deserves to die!"
