Tibet

Chapter 97 The silver lining

Li Ye reacted quickly, fell backwards, bent his waist ninety degrees, pierced the air with his long sword, then Li Ye flipped and rolled a foot away, drew his sword in his hand, and shouted: "Who is it? "

At this time, Li Dai suddenly heard shouting: "Wait a minute, girl, it seems to be my son!"

Li Ye was overjoyed and asked anxiously, "Father, are you all right?"

Li Dai sighed, "Girl, it's my son, let him come here!"

The cold light disappeared in a flash, and someone shouted: "Come here!"

It was indeed a woman's voice. Li Ye realized in his heart that this should be the female swordsman protecting his father. There seemed to be three shadows. Could it be that his grandfather had sensed his father's danger in advance and sent him to protect him?
Li Ye also put away his sword, stepped forward and asked, "Father, where are you?"

"I'm here!" Li Dai's excited voice came from the black hole.

He grabbed his son's hand and said, "Did grandfather ask you to visit me?"

"Yes!"

Li Dai sighed, "I fell under their illusion. I said a lot of things I shouldn't have said, and even marked them with my fingerprints. I don't know what I said? I'm afraid it will be bad for your grandfather."

Li Ye sighed secretly, his father was really under the illusion.

"I went to see Gao Weng just now, and he told me that my father recruited everything. It was my grandfather who arranged for you to cooperate with Yang Shenjin to destroy the evidence that the treasury was short of money."

"Nonsense! I didn't, there was no such thing!" Li Dai shouted in fear.

He suddenly grabbed his son's hand and cried, "Go back and tell your grandfather that you won't frame your father even if you kill me!"

Li Ye's nose was a little sore, and he quickly comforted him: "Father, don't worry, I know you have fallen into an illusion, and I was worried that they would kill you, so I came here in a hurry."

"They wanted to kill me. Thanks to these three girls who arrived in time, they killed those bastards and saved my life!"

Li Ye bowed to the three people in the darkness, "Thank you three girls for saving my father's life, may I ask who you are?"

The leading woman said: "We were sent by Master to protect your father!"

"Your master is..."

"You should have seen it."

With a thought in his mind, Li Ye blurted out, "Liefeng!"

The leading woman nodded, "My master said that there is a sorcery in Daming Palace, and she is duty-bound!"

Li Ye finally saw hope, and Lie Feng made a move, which brought a turning point to this almost impossible case.

He hurriedly said to his father: "Father, don't be in a hurry. Grandfather has already returned. He will express his feelings to the emperor and will definitely clear his father's innocence."

"But... they want to kill me. I'm not afraid of death, but I don't want to die without knowing why. I'm even more afraid that my father and family will be hurt if I die, especially your mother and son. I'm very afraid of hurting you!"

Li Ye gradually got to know this father. Although he was a wimpy and weak man, he was indeed kind-hearted and kind-hearted. At this time, he was still worried about hurting himself and his mother.

"Father, don't worry! Grandpa Yu Wei is still here, he can handle this case well. Besides, if something goes wrong, I will run away with my mother, and I will never be implicated!"

The woman next to him said: "Mr. Li, don't worry about being assassinated. One of our sisters has already reported to the master. The master will advise the emperor to change the place. With us, even black magic is useless."

Li Ye was also anxious to find Gao Lishi and told him that someone had assassinated his father and that there was something wrong with the interrogation report.

"Father, do you know the truth?"

Li Dai sighed, "I don't know anything!"

"Okay! I'll go and tell my grandfather that my father is safe and sound now!"

"Watch out for yourself!"

Li Ye saluted the three girls in the dark, turned around and left quickly.
Li Ye was not embarrassed by the jailer, and quickly returned to the ground, where Gao Fu was still waiting for him.

"Is your father okay?"

Li Ye said in a deep voice: "I'm going to see Gao Weng, I have important information to report to him!"

Gao Fu shook his head, "Just now Gao Weng sent someone to inform that he has entered the palace, so you don't have to look for him anymore, he knows everything you want to say."

Li Ye stopped his grandfather Li Linfu who was returning to Chang'an City in front of Chunming Gate, and reported the latest situation to him.

What Li Linfu learned about the situation was also broken. From his grandson, he had to know the details of the incident.

When Li Linfu heard that his son had made a confession, he was so angry that he slammed his fist on the car window, and he was in big trouble.

The emperor just wanted to mess with himself, and his son confessed and charged, isn't there a good reason?

"Grandfather, the matter has not reached the point of despair, there is still room for redemption, Gao Lishi."

Before Li Ye could finish speaking, Li Linfu waved his hand and interrupted him, "Don't expect Gao Lishi to help us, he is standing on the position of the emperor, he can tell you the details, it is already giving you face, If the Son of Heaven doesn't let go, it's useless for anyone to intercede."

"What about Liefeng? She actually came forward to protect father's safety. If it wasn't for her, father would have been silenced."

Li Linfu pondered for a while and said: "Liefeng is a bit strange. After the death of the Supreme Emperor, she and Feilong didn't ask about the government. I can't figure out how she actually made a move this time. But at most she can only protect your father's safety, and can't change it." Big picture."

"But she can prove that the other party used black magic!"

Li Linfu smiled wryly and said: "Illusion, alchemy, black magic, and fairy art are all the same thing, and they have different names for different people. It just so happens that I like illusion the most today. To say that he is angry is just pretending."

Seeing that his grandfather was almost losing confidence, Li Ye decided to use his trump card.

"Grandfather, the biggest problem now is that the Yang family is not ready yet. My grandson believes that my father was framed this time because someone shot a cold arrow at my grandfather's back, but it has nothing to do with the emperor, so Gao Lishi will help me to meet my father. If it is the emperor Gao Lishi will never give me the slightest chance."

One of Li Linfu's most worried knots was slowly untied by his grandson, not because he couldn't see it, because he was old and cunning, how could he not understand?

It's just that Li Linfu is a fan of the authorities and has been worried that the emperor will attack him, so he will consider the worst, but he is not as clear as a bystander like Li Ye.

Li Linfu nodded, "You're right. The Son of Heaven wants to replace me with Yang Guozhong, but he's not ready yet. This time, the Son of Heaven's goal should be Yang Shenjin, not me."

Li Linfu sighed, "I'm very confused now, what do you think should I do?"

"It's what my grandson said before. Father's grievances must be cleared, and the trial must be re-tried. That confession can no longer be used. With Lie Feng's help this time, grandfather insisted in front of the emperor that his father had suffered an illusion. Someone tried to kill his father. Silence, and beg the emperor to give another chance to retrial, then we have hope of turning things around.

Now the emperor is hesitant, as long as the grandfather stands firm, Gao Lishi will persuade the emperor, the key is that the grandfather must stand firm, how could he send his own son to do such a thing of digging his own grave? "

Li Linfu nodded, "I'll listen to you this time, go and persuade the emperor to retrial!"

In the imperial study room, Emperor Li Longji finished the preliminary examination report with a straight face.

Li Longji is 65 years old this year, but he is well maintained. There is no trace of wrinkle on his face, and he looks like he is in his early 50s.

Shrewdness and suspicion shone in his slender eyes, which was beyond his expectation. Li Dai confessed so quickly and even signed his name.

What does this mean? It means that Li Linfu's family will be imprisoned and executed.

Li Longji put down the report, walked to the window with his hands behind his back, and stared out of the window for a long time. This was not what he wanted. He just wanted to hit a rabbit, and he didn't want to kill the wolf behind the rabbit.

He just wanted to warn Li Linfu.

After a long time, he turned around and said slowly: "Liefeng said that someone used black magic last night, did the Ministry of Criminal Justice find out?"

Gao Lishi bowed and said: "Reporting to Your Majesty, the officials of the Ministry of Punishment found a dragon made of paper under Li Dai's table, with many charms on it."

"So, it's Li Dai who knows alchemy? What's his background?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, he was born in the Mingjing Department in the 22nd year of Kaiyuan. He has been serving as a military officer in Qianniuwei. Three days ago, he was transferred to the Ministry of Accounting as a member of the Treasury Department. The document warehouse of the Ministry of Accounting is his scope of authority."

"Only three days?"

Li Longji turned back and said: "Even if a thief steals something, it will take a month to set foot on the site! Can you set fire to the household department after only taking office for three days?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, there are some strange things here, such as the sorcery mentioned by Lie Feng. It is true that many soldiers saw a fire dragon rushing into the warehouse and caused a fire, but Li Dai is just a scholar, and he has never heard of any alchemy. Then Where is the person who performed the spell? That's why the veteran thinks that the trial of this case is only half done."

Li Longji nodded, "Is there any news about Li Linfu?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the eunuch reported outside the door, "Your Majesty, Li Linfu, the right minister, is asking to see you!"

　The last day to ask for a monthly ticket, ask for a reward!
