"Host, I know that it was the Third Prince who joined forces with Shu Yan to create this plague. Shu Yan had people bring the unburned clothes worn by plague patients to Lingfeng County. His purpose was to create a plague so that the Third Prince could gain merit, but they went too far." The Pearl of All Worlds floated in front of him and said.
"Yeah." Yu Tongchen replied coldly, but everything requires evidence.
Taking out the token from the secret compartment at the back, Yu Tongchen looked at the candlelight in front of him for a while and then stood up.
After entering the palace smoothly, Yu Tongchen stood at the door of the imperial study for a while.
"Who?" Emperor Cheng's voice came from inside.
Yu Tongchen pushed open the door.
Emperor Cheng put down the pen he was using to review memorials, "Are you finally willing to come and see me? Are you still blaming me for not finding your mother sooner?"
Yu Tongchen sat down on the chair next to him and said, "I don't have any complaints. I just don't like the capital."
No matter how much he complained, his mother would never come back. Moreover, Emperor Cheng had done nothing wrong to him.
"Then why are you back now?"
"Because of one person."
Emperor Cheng looked at him in silence for a while, "Will you also give in for love?"
"This is not a concession. She gets to decide all my likes and dislikes."
"Do you want me to grant you a marriage?"
"No, you will sit in the hall then."
"Okay." Emperor Cheng's voice was slightly excited. After calming down, he asked, "Why did you change your mind and want to intervene in the court?"
"Why? Jingyu and Shuyan just touched my reverse scale. I heard that you want to marry her to the crown prince?"
Emperor Cheng felt a little guilty, "No way, I was just teasing old man Ling."
"You better not."
"How do you talk to your uncle like that?"
Yu Tongchen didn't say anything.
"Are you really not going to take my seat? With your ability, you will lead this dynasty to an unprecedented prosperity."
"No, it's troublesome. Jing Zhan is more suitable to sit. He has something I don't have."
"What?"
"Benevolence."
"Benevolence? Don't you have it? If you didn't, you wouldn't have gone to Lingfeng County."
"I mean, benevolence for the sake of the king. I have never been a noisy person, and I don't have that much patience to listen to them quarreling. If I find out who is committing a crime, I will kill them on the spot."
Emperor Cheng was helpless.
Yu Tongchen stood up and said, "Please review the memorial."
"Are you leaving now?" Emperor Cheng looked at his back.
"Uncle, who are you looking at through me?" Yu Tongchen turned around and asked.
Emperor Cheng's pupils suddenly shrank.
The sound of the door closing woke Emperor Cheng up. He leaned back in his chair with lifeless eyes, as if he was reminiscing about something.
It turns out he had discovered it a long time ago.
…
Shu Shiyu went to the Dali Temple and brought with him the witnesses found by Baichuan and others.
Soon, Shu Yan, Li Man, Shu Shiyi and others were taken to the Dali Temple.
"What's the matter with your true identity?" Shu Yan looked a little unhappy.
"Shu Shiyu from the Border Guard General's Mansion has sued you and your step-wife Li for murdering her mother, your original wife Ling Ruyao." The Dali Temple Minister said as he sat at the top.
"Moreover, she also sued everyone in your Prime Minister's Mansion for embezzling her mother's dowry."
"You are slandering me!" Shu Yan scolded coldly, "She said so, so what? I am an honest official, and I am not biased as a person!"
The Dali Temple Minister curled his lips secretly. How come you, a fair person, caused the eldest daughter to leave the Prime Minister's Mansion and come to sue you?
Shu Shiyu glanced at him and said calmly, "Whether it is slander or not will be revealed later."
Shu Shiyu didn't want to argue with him any more, so he looked at the Dali Temple official and said, "Master Zhang, the witness is outside the hall."
"Bring the witness up." The Dali Temple Minister waved his hand and asked someone to bring the witness up.
