Great Ye Empress

Chapter 266
But he didn't believe that the fourth prince would be greedy, but he didn't hand over the account book... and felt ashamed of his identity as a prince, and felt ashamed of his brother as an elder brother when he handed it over.

Therefore, let the fourth prince enter the palace with him and make a petition with the father.

"Your Majesty! Your son has been wronged!" The fourth prince hurriedly shouted, "Most of the valuable things in the son's house are rewarded by the father! The third brother took the ledger to find the son, and the son really couldn't believe it! Fortunately The third brother also believed that the son and the minister... did not directly hand over the ledger to the censor desk, but let the son enter the palace to make a plea to the father and the emperor! The father and the son dared to swear that he would never embezzle in the disaster relief to prove his innocence Please ask the royal father to search the son's mansion!"

Having said that, the Fourth Prince kowtowed heavily.

"Father, my son, I don't believe that the fourth brother will be greedy!" The third prince pretended to be an elder brother and defended his younger brother, and solemnly said to the emperor, "But, as a son... as a minister, when you get such an account book, I can't help but come to tell the royal father, and ask the royal father to let someone identify the handwriting on this account book, whether it is from Xue Zhi's hand, and the innocence of the fourth brother!"

The emperor glanced at the eldest prince and knew in his heart that this was the masterpiece of his eldest son...

"Bring it here!" the emperor said.

The fourth prince got up and put the ledger in front of the emperor's desk, and then he stepped back and knelt in his place.

The emperor flipped through a few pages, then raised his eyes again to look at his eldest son, his face becoming more and more gloomy.

The eldest prince looked at the emperor's gaze, and he didn't have the heart to care about the third prince. He looked at the emperor with an aggrieved look, his eyes full of pleading.

"The third..." The emperor looked at his direct son, with a bit of joking in his voice, "The officials involved in the Censor's Tai Prison all turned over their confessions, picked up Shen Yanxing, and even went to the disaster area without saying anything. The local disaster relief officials also changed their confession, do you know this?"

The third prince groaned in his heart, and understood that the emperor was implying that his hand was stretched too long.

Let the officials involved in the Censor Terrace prison change their confessions and intervene in the Emperor's most trusted Censor Terrace!

In addition to the fact that the officials in the disaster-stricken areas changed their confessions, this hand was extended to the place, which was the most taboo thing for his father...

The reason why the father emperor ordered the censor station to strictly investigate the disaster relief and corruption case is not only because Xie Yunchu made such a case when he released the list, and the disaster victims entered Beijing, the situation became serious, and he had to give the people an explanation.

It's more because the emperor was deceived from top to bottom...the emperor was like a blind man who didn't know anything.

Since his father had already named Shen Yanxing, then Shen Yanxing would definitely not be able to keep it. The third prince knew this.

Since you want to break a Shen Yanxing, you must protect yourself.

As the direct son of the third prince, he couldn't do the eldest prince's attitude of behaving badly in front of the emperor anytime, anywhere, and he hurriedly kowtowed: "Father Huang Mingjian, my son is very talented, and he can't make all the officials involved. All the confessions are changed!"

The emperor stared at himself, a son who had always regarded himself as his own son, and considered himself very high, and pondered... the possibility of the third prince and the first prince joining forces.

"Yushitai also has an account book in the hands of Xue Zhi, you all take your own account books and go with me to the front hall to meet the people from the Yushitai!" The emperor said, got up and walked towards the front hall .

The third prince got up first, went to the emperor's desk, picked up the ledger, and followed behind the emperor to the front hall.

The fourth prince also followed the third prince.

The eldest prince then got up and took the two ledger books on the table, and followed anxiously to the front hall.

Front hall.

Xie Yunchu frowned slightly when he saw the three princes appearing in the hall behind the emperor.

Censor Niu was also a little uneasy, worried that something was going to happen.

After the emperor sat down on the chair, he put his elbows on the pillow of the ginger embroidered Erlongxizhu, and waved his hand to the prince to hand over the ledger to the imperial censor: "Look at all, the eldest prince and the others also got a few copies of 'Xue Zhi'. The ledger left behind!"

The eldest prince took the account book from the hands of the third prince and exchanged glances with the third prince before sending all the three account books to Yushi Niu.

Niu Yushi got the ledger, took one, and handed the other two to Xie Yunchu and Wang Shilang behind him.

Niu Yushi simply flipped through a few pages, and when he saw the handwriting on the ledger, he groaned in his heart.

Li Shaoqing, who had an injury on his hand, and Xie Yunchu gathered together to read the ledger, and were also surprised.

Xie Yunchu was holding the account book that the fifth prince had embezzled, and she knew when she saw the account book... This account book is probably the very means that the first prince prepared to deal with Xue Zhi's backhand.

Even if Xue Zhi's ledgers appeared on the Censor Desk, with these fake ledgers, the Censor Desk could be caught off guard. The Censor Desk just took a while to identify the authenticity of these ledgers, so they had time to do it. Prepare.

Second, the eldest prince can also go to the emperor to make all the real accounts including Xue Zhi become fake ones, and still be able to stop the case with Xue Zhi.

"Father, it seems that now... I have to ask the calligraphers to distinguish the handwriting of these books and see if Xue Zhi left it!" The third prince said.

The eldest prince also said, "I used to identify the handwriting of the confession letter left by Xue Zhi. Why don't I ask the Imperial College to come and identify it."

After reading the ledger, Yushi Niu heard this, and his heart thumped...

He remembered that when Xie Yunchu asked Mr. Min Buzhou and Mr. Xie to identify the handwriting in the ledger, he also asked the Guozijian sacrificial wine to identify it together. The three of them thought that the ledger that Li Baotian handed to Xie Yunchu was indeed from the confession. same person.

At first, Censor Niu felt that Xie Yunchu was too cautious.

Now it seems that Xie Yunchu is right to be cautious!
It's just too dangerous...

If Guozijian was threatened, or simply hinted by the emperor, it might not be able to maintain the character of a scholar.

But since it was confirmed with the two Hongru scholars Xie Lao and Min Lao before, unless the Guozijian sacrifice wine should not gain a foothold among scholars, otherwise... we can only tell the truth.

The eldest prince would not passively wait for the censor to hold him down and clean him up. Xie Yun had expected this at first, but he did not expect the eldest prince to drag the other princes into the water with forged ledgers...

She just felt that the Imperial Academy had identified Xue Zhi's confession, so... the account book was taken out and handed to the emperor. The emperor wanted to determine whether the handwriting on the account book was Xue Zhi's, so naturally he would not bother the two masters. , let Guozijian sacrifice wine to distinguish.

So she didn't know what Guozijian Sacrificial Wine was, so she was cautious first... Ask Guozijian Sacrificial Wine to identify this ledger with her grandfather and Old Man Min.

Even if his grandfather and Mr. Min were not there, Xie Yunchu would try to ask several people with high attainments in calligraphy in Bianjing City to identify the handwriting together with Guozijian's sacrificial wine.

Luckily this time, grandfather and Lao Min were absolutely enough, and Guozijian's sacrificial wine didn't have the guts to retort.
