Power ministers always make things difficult for me

Chapter 91 Chapter 91: The truth will return your reputation

"Your Excellency, I am guilty!" Li Shi trembled all over and fell to the ground full of guilt: "As the late emperor's personal physician, I have disobeyed the emperor's orders and was forced by thieves to blame the prince, causing the prince to be wronged. Prison, the crime is really unpardonable!”

"Before the prince ascended the throne, someone broke into the imperial hospital and ordered Wei Chen to blame all the causes of the late emperor's death on the prince. If he refused, he would kill Wei Chen. Wei Chen cherished his life and was afraid of death. He had no choice but to conceal the truth. Wei Chen should die. !”

"These days, I have been hiding this secret in my heart. I can't sleep all day and night. I have betrayed the late emperor's grace and insulted the emperor's grace. I still ask the Lord Supervisor to punish me and restore the prince's reputation!"

After saying this, Li Shi kowtowed heavily on the ground again, as if he was really guilty and wanted to clarify the truth.

Rong Qin frowned. Although he had expected this outcome, he still had doubts about Li Shi's sudden change: "Mr. Li said that he was threatened with his life and was forced to tell the story about the prince's poisoning, but what you said today Come to clarify this matter, isn't there any possibility of being coerced?"

"Or is it that Dr. Li has something in Pei Qi's hands, so he's speaking for her today?"

Seeing that things were still improving, Jiang Fengchuan's expression softened slightly, and he hurriedly echoed: "The right minister is right, Li Shi, if you have anything to say, just say it, don't be afraid of others, I will make the decision for you , have you been threatened by Pei Qi?"

Hearing this, Pei Qi suddenly sneered, which was heard in everyone's ears with a strong sense of ridicule: "Threat? Does the Right Prime Minister think that Pei is a god who still has the energy to return to the palace despite being pursued by the court? , found Dr. Li?"

After she returned to the imperial capital, she has been hiding beside Rong Qin. Rong Qin also paid close attention to her, the wife named "Ye Rou". Rong Qin knew whether she had coerced Dr. Li.

If Rong Qin wants to doubt, he can only doubt Cui Shaogong and Jiang Lingfeng.

As expected, Rong Qin spoke in the next second: "Of course you don't have this ability, but that doesn't mean that Jiang is collaborating with you..."

"If the right minister is suspicious, just go and investigate." Before Rong Qin could finish speaking, Pei Qi interrupted him mercilessly, not giving him a chance to try to influence Li Shi: "Pei thinks that this No matter where he goes in the palace, there are eyeliners of the Right Prime Minister. If the Right Prime Minister can find out that anyone related to Pei has been to the Imperial Hospital or has an affair with Imperial Physician Li, Pei will be willing to kill him. .”

"So, the right prime minister will still be suspicious?"

She knew that even if Rong Qin searched the entire palace, he would not find any results, because it was Li Shi who came to find her for what happened today.

No matter how eloquent Rong Qin is, she will save the prince from prison today.

Pei Qi's words rendered Rong Qindu, who had always been eloquent, speechless.

Because as Pei Qi said, he couldn't find the so-called evidence, and sending people to look for it was nothing more than a waste of time and could not change any outcome.

Seeing that Rong Qin stopped talking, Pei Qi said again: "Since the right minister has nothing to say, let Pei continue to speak."

"Actually, the method is very simple to prove which sentence Li Shi was threatened with."

"I think that on the day of the late emperor's accident, the Ministry of Punishment had searched the entire late emperor's palace. Even the palaces of the courtiers and princes' palaces who had met with the late emperor beforehand were not missed. As the prince and the prince who accompanied the emperor all day long, The dormitory should be inspected more carefully as a key area."

"But even the Ministry of Punishment, which did not let go of any clues, was unable to find any medicine from the prince that killed the late emperor. Some of them are just powders commonly used to relieve bruises and injuries."

"So, what Li Shi said is true, I think you, Prime Minister, should have a correct decision in your mind."

Pei Qi's words were like an iron wall with no opening to break through. Not to mention the ministers, even Rong Qin was unable to refute him for the moment.

And Pei Qi was not prepared to give Rong Qin room to think. She turned to Rong Qin, holding the court board, and suddenly bowed: "Please also raise your noble hand, right minister, recognize the facts, and restore the reputation of the prince... and Pei. ."

"Let Pei be reinstated to his original position."

When he mentioned the word "Qingyu", Pei Qi's voice was inexplicably softer.

Even though she had just said everything with confidence and had Li Shi as a witness, her true thoughts were still scary.Even she couldn't figure out how many unscrupulous tricks Rong Qin had. If Rong Qin had a backup plan, it would be another change.

She had waited too long and suffered too much for the day when she wanted her reputation back from Rong Qin.

She really doesn't want to lose, and she can't afford to lose...

Looking at the body that slowly bent down in front of him, Rong Qin felt something strange in his heart.

It seemed like it was the first time in so many years that he saw Pei Qi bowing to him under the attention of the court officials.

What I saw before was only provocation, unyieldingness, and tit-for-tat confrontation.

She could obviously have a brighter future after escaping from the imperial capital, but she was willing to do this for Dasheng. Her spine was obviously bent, but why...

Does he always feel straight?
Are you dazzled?

Forget it, after all, he had already said it, and he could no longer stop the prince from being released from prison.

But if she wants to be reinstated and return to the court, how can it be so simple?
After a long time, Rong Qin's footsteps moved.

He took a few steps forward and walked to Pei Qi. He raised his hands and grabbed Pei Qi's arms, lifting her bent body up: "Pei Qi, I admit that what you did this time made me unable to do anything." To refute, maybe it was the truth that the prime minister misjudged important cases before, and there were many misunderstandings among them. The prime minister will re-examine the truth, release the prince from prison, and even tell the world to restore your reputation."

Just assume that this time, the original phase failed again.

From today on, those remarks among Dasheng people about the premeditated regicide of the Imperial Guards will be clarified, and the reputation of traitors and rebellious ministers will also be self-defeated.

"Congratulations to the prince for clearing his grievances and dispelling his stigma!"

"We sincerely welcome the Imperial Master to redress his injustice and return him to the court!"

The congratulations of the courtiers also echoed in the hall at this moment, one after another, lasting for a long time.

No one could have imagined that the Dasheng court, which was supposed to change its owner, would suddenly undergo such earth-shaking changes.

Pei Qi was shocked by Xu Rongqin's sudden release. After being stunned for a while, she came to her senses and took an unsteady step back, almost crying with joy.

Finally, she is no longer the criminal despised by thousands of people...

The emotion in Rong Qin's eyes was indescribable. He put down his hand, turned around, and turned his back to Pei Qi.

When the courtier's voice gradually fell, everyone who thought the matter had come to an end heard Rong Qin speak again.

"Return to the court...Master Pei's thoughts are simple."

"Have you forgotten that even if the death of the late emperor had nothing to do with you, it is still a crime for you to disguise yourself as a woman and sneak into the court and deceive the king."

How could he let her have her wish so easily?
They are still enemies...
