Chapter 190
Zhu Gaoxu was far away, and the anger of the officials rushed to Zhu Zhanhe at the court meeting.

Facing the glaring stares of the ministers, Zhu Zhanhe not only did not feel ashamed, but straightened his back and sneered at the ministers, as if he was very disdainful.

Zhu Zhanhe's provocative behavior immediately angered many ministers, among whom Liu Jin, the most radical, stood up and said: "Your Highness, the King of Han committed such a serious crime. As a son of man, he should have pleaded guilty on behalf of his father. Why? Laughing at me?"

Seeing Zhu Zhanhe unhurriedly glanced at Liu Jin, he said slowly: "Liu Yushi, although you all have the right to gossip about things in the procuratorate, you can't say some things indiscriminately, who told you? My father committed a felony?"

"These Cochin officials have traveled thousands of miles to Beijing to complain, does the prince still want to deny it?"

Liu Jin was even more annoyed when he heard the words, and immediately stepped forward to question.

"is it?"

I saw Zhu Zhanhe chuckled, and actually stepped in front of Li Li and others.

Li Li and the others were also very nervous. After all, they had seen Zhu Gaoxu's brutality. As the saying goes, like a father, like a son, the son of the King of Han in front of him must not be easy to mess with.

Zhu Zhanhe sized up the cochin officials for a while, and finally stopped his eyes on Li Li, then sneered and said, "You guys are so courageous, how dare you sue my father?"

"I would like to report to my son, the King of Han is rampant in Jiaozhi, and we are also forced to do so for the sake of the people of Jiaozhi. Please forgive us for our difficulties!"

Li Li spoke very calmly, binding himself and the people of Cochin together with his words, as if they had all become victims of Zhu Gaoxu's tyranny.

"So, you all think that my father did something wrong in cochin?"

Zhu Zhanhe suddenly asked a question that seemed a bit inexplicable.

"Naturally, if the King of Han did not force me, we would not have come all the way to the capital to ask His Majesty to uphold justice for us!"

Li Li insisted again.

"very good!"

Zhu Zhanhe sneered, then pointed at Li Li and the others and said, "Whoever thinks my father is guilty, take three steps forward!"

Hearing Zhu Zhanhe's words, Li Li immediately took three steps forward without hesitation, and then straightened his chest and looked at Zhu Zhanhe. The dozen or so of them had agreed long ago, and today they must sue the King of Han no matter what. fall!
However, what Li Li didn't expect was that after he took three steps forward, the surrounding ministers suddenly looked at him with strange eyes.

Li Li was taken aback by this, and then turned his head to look behind him, only to be shocked to find that, except for Pan Liao and other five or six people behind him, the others were standing still, and these people standing still were suddenly Zheng Gao is the leader.

"Zheng Gao, what are you doing?"

When Li Li saw Zheng Gao and the others, he also felt bad in his heart, and immediately asked him eagerly in a low voice.

Unexpectedly, Zheng Gao didn't even look at Li Li, but instead bowed to Zhu Di who was sitting on the dragon chair and said: "My Majesty, I don't think the King of Han is guilty, but Li Li and the others have ulterior motives and intentionally falsely accused the King of Han in order to get rid of him." Divorce the relationship between His Majesty and the King of Han and his son!"

"Boom~"

As soon as Zheng Gao's words came out of his mouth, there was an uproar immediately, and all the civil and military officials ignored the etiquette, and they whispered to each other.

After all, just now Li Li and the others worked together to sue the King of Han, but as soon as Zhu Zhanhe came forward, these Cochin officials themselves fell into internal strife, split into two factions, and each insisted on an opposite rhetoric, what is going on?

"What's your name, what is your official position, why do you say that?"

Seeing the turn of the situation, Zhu Di was also very interested, so he asked Zheng Gao kindly.

Yesterday Zhu Zhanhe said that he was invited to watch a good show. He was a little skeptical at first, but now it seems that this good show is finally going to be staged.

"Your Majesty, my minister's name is Zheng Gao, and he is currently the county magistrate of Tongning County. When the King of Han was in Jiaozhi, he did not bully the people. On the contrary, it was Li Li, the tyrants of Tsinghua Prefecture, who bullied his subordinates and deceived his superiors on weekdays. Listen to the order of the court..."

Zheng Gao had obviously been prepared for a long time, and explained in detail how the Qinghua Mansion's tyrants refused to listen to the court's order. Finally, he talked about Zhu Gaoxu's sending troops to wipe out the tyrants. Imperial certificate, hoping to use the power of the court to attack Zhu Gaoxu.

When Li Li saw Zheng Gao's betrayal and confessed everything about their conspiracy, his face turned pale with fright, and so did the people around him, even the savage Cochin native Pan Liao, his face turned pale from fright at this moment. .

In contrast, the few people around Zheng Gao were all calm. They had been recruited by Zheng Gao long ago, and they were willing to abandon the dark side and join the Ming Dynasty. Now that they are doing meritorious service, they don't have to worry about the imperial court blaming them.

"Your Majesty, the ministers were persecuted by Li Li and others, so they had to pretend to agree to sue with him, but today they came to the court, and the ministers really didn't want to violate their conscience, so they told the truth, and please forgive me. The King of Han is innocent!"

Finally, Zheng Gao pointed at Li Li righteously and reprimanded angrily.

At this time, not only Li Li and the others changed their complexions, but the officials who accused Zhu Gaoxu just now also had ugly faces, especially Liu Jin, the censor, looked like he had eaten a fly, and his face was almost green.

After all, no matter how stupid a person is at this moment, they can see that Li Li was stabbed in the back by Zheng Gao, and this crucial stab hits the nail on the head, Li Li can't refute at all, which also means that Zheng Gao is not lying.

"Grandfather, what Zheng Gao said is the truth about Cochin. Li Li and these Cochin tyrants don't listen to orders and try to establish their own country, so father and king will send troops to eliminate the hidden dangers of Cochin. Now they have come to the capital to fight against them. How sinister?"

At this time, Zhu Zhanhe also solemnly said to Zhu Di that he stabbed Li Li and the others again!

"Your Majesty, this is not the case. Zheng Gao and the others framed us, he must have been bribed by the King of Han!"

Li Li still refused to admit defeat at this time, and argued loudly again.

"Li Li! It's this time, and you still haven't pleaded guilty? Don't you think Grandpa Huang is so easy to deceive?"

At this moment, Zhu Zhanhe let out a loud roar, then took out a thick playbook from his sleeve, and saluted Zhu Di.

"Grandfather, this is the evidence found by Dongchang and Jinyiwei. Li Li and Pan Liao and others around him, on the surface, took refuge in Daming, and even became officials of my Daming, but secretly they still wanted to restore the country and secretly supported some people. The Cochin rebels raised their troops, and all these crimes have been recorded in the record, please also ask Grandpa Huang to investigate clearly!"

As soon as Zhu Zhanhe's words came out of his mouth, Li Li and the others immediately turned pale. They didn't expect that the other party even knew about their plan to restore the country.

As for the ministers in the court, seeing that Zhu Zhanhe had even prepared the evidence against Li Li and others in advance, they finally realized that they had been tricked, and today's incident was probably planned by Zhu Zhanhe long ago of!
