Seeing this, the people in King Zhan's party felt that the general trend was inevitable.
There were one or two who wanted to stand up and fight to the death, but they were scolded by the Fourth Prince!
"Our dynasty has always governed the world with filial piety. People say that a father is kind and a son is filial. However, as the prince of the Wei Dynasty, King Zhan not only failed to set an example, but was so inhumane that he kicked his own son to death. This is truly unprecedented.
What a strange news!"
"Not only that, King Zhan also whipped my wife's mother in front of many people. If my wife hadn't stopped the whipping, I'm afraid my mother would not have survived to see the emperor today. I also asked the emperor to make the decision for my mother.
, make the decision for my wife!"
It was Yu Wenjie who spoke.
She was also covered in blood, but no one had focused on her just now.
But now, he saw the shocking whip wounds.
It was indeed very cruel.
It should be said that this King Zhan is really used to being domineering and has no idea how to avoid it.
Otherwise, people would not be able to hold on to the handles one after another and shake them all out.
Now, the evidence is conclusive.
Even if he wanted to, he couldn't.
"King Zhan, do you know your guilt?"
King Zhan shook his head crazily. The more he shook, the more painful he became.
But now it's time to save his life, so he can't care about the pain.
The emperor glanced at Lin Xingzhi, and then he solved the Ding point.
King Zhan was freed and finally spoke.
He said repeatedly to the emperor.
"Old minister, you are wronged! Ever since we got married to the Earl of Shunyi, there have been constant disputes in the family. First, the eldest sister was insulted, and then the father was so angry that he vomited blood. Aren't all these things caused by the Shunyi and Rongchang families?
Really? For the daughter of such an enemy, I can allow her to live to this day and still retain her position as a princess. Doesn’t that count as being extremely benevolent?"
"And at the beginning, the mother and daughter agreed to send their daughter to the palace to replace the princess in marriage. Otherwise, why didn't they make a fuss at that time, and only now they say it? Isn't this just a deliberate step on the old minister?"
"I went to the inn to take the princess home. Unexpectedly, the unworthy descendant used these so-called evidences to threaten the old minister and forced me to divorce. That's why the old minister accidentally kicked him.
, Tiger poison does not eat its seeds, and I am not a cruel person, how could I really kick my own son to death?"
"And those criminal evidences are all nonsense and inexplicable accusations! The Shunyi and Rongchang families have been dissatisfied with Prince Zhan's Mansion for a day or two, or they are instigating it behind their backs! Your Majesty, please take a closer look!"
I have to say that his sophistry skills are really great.
He is quick to criticize and blame everything on past grievances.
They also took advantage of the reason that the three of them, mother and son, did not dare to make trouble in the past, and now they just add salt to their wounds.
After hearing his "explanation", people in King Zhan's party also started to say good things.
At one time, he said that King Zhan had worked hard for the country for so many years, and at the same time, he talked about the former favor of Prince Zhan and the royal treatment.
All in all, he kept touting his past achievements in an attempt to get the emperor to be merciful.
Little did they know that what they said was what accelerated King Zhan to his death.
In the emperor's heart, he was very unhappy with this past period.
But they don't know.
Looking at the three or three people below who stood up to speak for King Zhan, the emperor also had something in his mind.
King Zhan's party has never been wiped out before, it was done deliberately.
I just don’t want to alert the enemy.
Today, we caught out a few more party members that we hadn't noticed before, which can be considered a big gain.
The emperor didn't respond for a long time, so Princess Zhan became a little anxious.
There is no way she would have to sacrifice her own child's life and future prospects just to get this result.
So he continued to cry unconvinced.
"Your Majesty, I still have something to report. There is a private treasury in Prince Zhan's palace, which is under the control of the concubine Wei. I don't know how many gold and silver treasures are placed in it. I just accidentally opened it a few years ago.
I found an account book and found that on July 26th, thirteen years ago, one million four hundred and sixty thousand taels were recorded. It is a huge amount, as can be imagined. Please investigate thoroughly! Please return our mother and son.
Be fair to everyone in the world!"
This matter has been hidden in Princess Zhan's heart for many years.
It was precisely because of this inadvertent discovery that she knew that there must be some unfair business going on in Prince Zhan's Mansion.
However, because she has no ability and no connections, just knowing the amount and date is of little use.
But today, they escaped together in the court hall in order to crucify King Zhan.
Therefore, the more crimes, the better!
With his inflated ambition, I'm afraid this is not the only mess in his family!
As long as she had an excuse to investigate Prince Zhan's Mansion, she believed there would be various flaws.
When King Zhan heard this, his face actually sank a little.
When he came, he never expected that he would be taken directly into the palace, so many things at home were not arranged.
If they were really broken in and searched carefully, I'm afraid it would be troublesome.
The emperor watched the changes in King Zhan's expression carefully and understood in his heart.
It doesn't matter whether the investigation yields results or not. What matters is that Princess Zhan gave herself the opportunity to search the palace openly.
When the time comes, the evidence that should and should not be there will naturally be "explained".
Just like when he shifted the blame and put all the blame on the Lan family, it was the same truth.
Repay him with his own way.
The emperor would do this better than him!
So after being silent for a long time, he spoke.
"Uncle Four Kings, General Yu Lin, and Prime Minister Lin."
"Old minister is here!"
"The old minister is here."
"Wei Chen is here!"
"The pillar of national defense has been framed. I ordered the three of you to go to the palace to investigate. Remember not to let go of any evidence, nor to wrong anyone in the palace of Zhan. Do you understand?"
"Yes, I obey your order."
Among the three people who checked, the Fourth Prince and Prince Zhan had always been at odds with each other.
But Prime Minister Lin is also the brother-in-law of King Zhan, and Lin Xingzhi is his grandson.
All the courtiers present could not see the connection between them.
Did the emperor intend to investigate Prince Zhan's Mansion, or did he want to let him go?
Suddenly, those who rashly stood in line became a little panicked.
It's a shame that I didn't calm down. If I was really implicated, wouldn't it be me who jumped out?
stupid!
It's really stupid!
Therefore, those people who had just returned their righteous remarks silently took a few steps back.
But he found that the courtiers standing around him deliberately took a step away from him.
It still makes them stand out from the crowd.
There is simply no place to cry.
When Princess Zhan heard that the palace was to be searched, she immediately suggested it.
"Your Majesty, let's start the search from the courtyard where I am."
