Chapter 106: Prince Qing, do you dare to swear?
His Majesty has ordered a search of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery’s mansion.
To ensure fairness, and of course to ensure the success of the plan.
Those who came to search the mansion of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery were led by Prince Jing Chu Wuxun, Prince Qing, and Lord Kou from the Dali Temple.
When the door of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's Mansion was opened, what one saw was the entire family of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery standing neatly in the hall. They were not at all surprised to see Prince Jing and the others.
The Grand Princess even waved at King Jing with a smile.
"Little Wuxun, I knew His Majesty would definitely send you here. Over the years, he has used you more easily than his own son."
Chu Wuxun lowered his eyes and sighed slightly.
I have to say that what the Grand Princess said is really true.
He is obviously a prince, but his utilization rate is higher than that of your Majesty's son and even the eunuch Fu who is beside him.
But it’s not a good topic to continue the conversation.
Chu Wuxun cupped his hands.
"My apologies, Grand Princess."
"It's okay. We, the Loyal and Brave Marquisate, are devoted to the country and have shed our blood for the Great Chu. We are not afraid at all. How could we be afraid of such a small frame-up?"
"Go ahead and investigate. If you find out that my son has done something wrong to the Great Chu, I will kill him first."
"But if someone wants to frame my son and make him bear an unjust accusation, then I, an old woman, will not just do nothing to stop him."
Having said that, the Grand Princess glanced at Prince Qing with a kind look in her eyes.
Prince Qing: ...
Suddenly I felt cold on my back and wanted to run away.
But things have come to this point, and there is no way back down.
At that moment, Chu Wuxun, Prince Qing, and Lord Kou were standing in the hall with the family of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery, waiting for the result. Naturally, the people below would go and search the entire Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery Mansion.
Not long after, a loud noise was heard in the distance.
Then, Prince Qing's men ran over quickly holding a wooden box.
Done.
Prince Qing's eyes lit up.
It seems that all my father’s efforts have paid off, and it’s finally going to be accomplished.
However, Prince Qing did not take the wooden box directly, but gave his subordinates a look.
"What is this? Why not show it to King Jing and Lord Kou first?"
Chu Wuxun curled the corners of his lips and opened the wooden box together with Lord Kou beside him.
Not surprisingly, it currently contains some correspondence.
Moreover, these letters turned out to be the communication between the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery and Beiliang.
It can be said that this is very clear evidence that Marquis Zhongyong colluded with Beiliang.
After seeing these letters, Chu Wuxun and Lord Kou looked at each other, and both saw a hint of understanding in each other's eyes.
then……
"What do you mean? I've never seen this before."
"Where did you get this thing?"
"Are you trying to frame my Loyal and Brave Marquis Mansion?"
"I tell you, His Majesty is wise and intelligent, and will definitely not be fooled by your little tricks."
"Even if you have deceived everyone for a short time, His Majesty will definitely clear the name of our Loyal and Brave Marquis Mansion."
The Loyalty and Bravery Marquis shouted in a loud voice. Not only those standing in the hall, but even the onlookers standing outside the gate of the Loyalty and Bravery Marquis’s mansion watching the excitement could hear his impassioned speech.
"Oh, the loyal and brave Marquis has been framed."
"I felt something was wrong before, Jin'er. The loyal and brave Marquis was so brave when he fought against Beiliang. How could he collude with the Beiliang people?"
"I think the battle must have ended before someone attacked these generals."
"Hiss... Are you talking about His Majesty..."
"Stop talking nonsense, don't you want a head?"
It was as if I could hear the voices of the people outside.
The loud roar of Marquis Zhongyong was heard again.
"Your Majesty will definitely not let us old ministers down. It will definitely be you..."
"The little brat of the Qingwang family."
"When we were fighting the Beiliang people, you didn't dare to charge forward. After the battle, you started to deal with us, the old ministers who supported His Majesty."
"Do you really think that no one can see your little tricks?"
People outside: ...
Ouch, I got a big melon.
Suddenly I felt like I was worrying about the country.
It turns out that Prince Qing was behind all this.
It turns out that it was not Your Majesty who wanted to kill off the running dogs, but Prince Qing who wanted to strike against these meritorious ministers.
This is the standard of a treacherous minister.
Chu Wuxun glanced at Marquis Zhongyong with some amusement.
Not to mention that only a rough guy like Marquis Zhongyong could say such words so naturally.
On the one hand, I have shown my trust and loyalty to Your Majesty.
On the other hand, he pointed out Prince Qing directly and confronted him.
Sure enough, the arrogant ones are afraid of the stupid ones, and the stupid ones are afraid of the desperate ones.
What a conspirator like Prince Qing fears most is a rough guy like Marquis Zhongyong.
There will be something interesting to watch soon.
"The evidence is solid, but since the Loyal and Brave Marquis believes this is a frame-up... Lord Kou."
Chu Wuxun turned his head and looked at Lord Kou from the Dali Temple standing beside him.
"How about we present the evidence to His Majesty and bring the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery into the palace so that he can argue with His Majesty face to face?"
Lord Kou nodded.
"After all, the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery is a meritorious official of the Great Chu, and the Grand Princess is a royal relative. This is how it should be."
…
…
So soon.
Chu Yingrui started working again.
This time, not only were there civil and military officials in the court, but there was also a loyal and brave marquis who cried for his parents.
"Your Majesty, I am innocent!"
"Prince Qing wrongly accused me of colluding with Beiliang. Why didn't he wrongly accuse me of colluding with Beiliang? No one can believe this."
"But he can still say such ridiculous things."
"He is disrespecting your Majesty... and my wisdom."
Chu Yingrui: ...
The first half of the sentence is fine, and the second half can be omitted.
Comparing my intelligence with yours is the greatest disrespect to my wisdom.
Chu Yingrui was still struggling with how to correct Marquis Zhongyong's unhealthy thoughts.
Prince Qing on the side couldn't help it anymore.
"Loyal and Brave Marquis, what are you talking about?"
"It's obvious that you colluded with Beiliang. The evidence is solid. Even the correspondence and the hidden weapons and armor have been found. Yet you still want to resist."
"And you even want to involve me in this matter."
"What does this have to do with me?!"
Marquis Zhongyong chuckled.
"If it's okay, why are you jumping so high? You have the loudest voice among all the civil and military officials in the court. Normally, you would hide behind when you have something to do, but today you are rushing forward. Do you really think that others can't see it? Are you the one who is doing this?"
King Qing: ...
Who has a louder voice than you?
But I do seem to be a little anxious.
Prince Qing took a step back.
"I am only angry about the sacrifice of General Zhang, Marquis Zhongyong, please do not make random accusations in order to escape guilt."
"Anyway, this matter of yours has nothing to do with me."
Loyal and Brave Marquis: ... "I don't believe it unless you swear."
"Swear that you didn't frame my Loyal and Brave Marquis Mansion, otherwise you will have abscesses on your head, pus on your feet, and your son will be born without any... No, if you already have a son, then curse that your son is not your own!!"
King Qing: ...
It's so annoying that he doesn't even dare to make this oath.
