"So they found out that Duke Yang of Qi was guilty of treason?"
Before Wang Hong could finish, Yang Huaijin interrupted him with a laugh, his tone full of sarcasm: "What a coincidence! The entire capital is so big, and these people from Qi are so powerful that Lord Wang happened to meet them and even happened to hear them talking about how Yang Gong of Qi was doing in Qi!"
"And all these men and women from Qi State were gathered together, carrying letters of evidence with them."
As Yang Huaijin spoke every word, Wang Hong's face suddenly turned pale.
Because it really isn't such a 'coincidence'.
When he heard the news, he was immediately ecstatic, because the last incident made him hate Yang Tiejiang to death. How could he let go of this opportunity to bring down the Yang family, so he specially asked someone to investigate.
He was the one who had these people from Qi identified.
However, his investigation went smoothly, and the evidence was indeed found on several people.
At that time, he was only interested in dealing with the Yang family and didn't think there was anything wrong with it. But now that Yang Huaijin said this, he realized how stupid he had been.
This was obviously done intentionally.
It should be said that he may have been used as a scapegoat.
Wang Hong immediately knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, I am solely concerned about the safety of our dynasty. After learning about this matter, I was inconsiderate..."
"Is it a lack of consideration? Or is it a deliberate false accusation?"
Yang Tiejiang also came out at this time. His tall and rough appearance seemed so "outstanding" in front of the officials.
He stared at Wang Hong with a pair of eyes as big as copper bells, his face full of murderous intent. "You old boy, to be honest, I really don't want to say anything to you anymore. I thought that after what happened last time, your pig brain would have improved, but I didn't expect you to become even more outrageous and even dare to treat His Majesty as a fool."
"I think you deserve to be punished."
"You..." Wang Honggang wanted to say something.
Next second.
The board hit his face and Wang Hong screamed in pain.
"What do you mean by 'you'? If you dare to fool the emperor again, I will smash your mouth." The only person in the court who can threaten others with such confidence is probably Yang Tiejiang, a fool.
Emperor Wenyuan just frowned.
Yang Tiejiang stepped directly into the center of the hall, cupped his hands, and spoke respectfully and loudly: "Your Majesty, my daughter is going to Yujiang by imperial decree, and His Royal Highness the Prince of Yi is also traveling with her. If you need to know my daughter's whereabouts, you only need to check the post stations in various places."
"But I can guarantee with my life that my daughter is absolutely loyal to the emperor and the country. There are no cowards in our Yang family. If she were to die, she would die protecting the country and the people. She would never commit treason."
"Not to mention going to a vassal state of Qi and committing treason? Isn't there anything else to do after having enough to eat?"
"As for what Lord Wang and the Qi people are saying about Princess Jade, the female prime minister, and the female emperor, that's even more nonsense. The Qi emperor is not without sons. I heard that the eldest prince of Qi is brave and good at fighting, and governs the country in an orderly manner. He is a very capable first prince, not to mention that Qi has other princes and princesses."
"This is the wheel, and it's my daughter's turn too!"
"Get a portrait and say the Emperor of Qi wants my daughter to be the Emperor. Only a fool with a hole in his brain would believe such a thing."
Yang Tiejiang glanced at Wang Hong. "Sir Wang, I heard that none of your sons have any future, but your daughter is a famous talent. When do you plan to let your daughter inherit the family business?"
