Kang Xueyi and the other two felt that since they had not found any evidence of treason in the prime minister's residence, they could not easily charge him with treason.
If Ni Gaofei was convicted of being an accomplice in the kidnapping of the princess, Ni Yueshan and Jing Yuchen might let the case go. However, since it was treason, they would investigate it thoroughly. It would be too difficult to close the case!
If Shao Lecheng insists, he must be greedy and trying to swallow an elephant!
"Prince, there is a word called 'enough is enough.'" Ni Gaofei looked at Shao Lecheng with cold eyes, and no longer had the initial concession, which made Shao Lecheng stunned and surprised.
The atmosphere was awkward for a moment. Someone was walking slowly towards the door. Everyone present looked outside and they didn't expect that the person coming was Zou Yangyao?
He saluted everyone present with a serious expression, then took the initiative to present the letter in his hand: "My Lords, I have a piece of evidence to present!"
"General Zou, are you going to seek justice for the Prime Minister?" Minister Tai looked at Zou Yangyao hesitantly.
"Three lords, you will know after reading it!" Zou Yangyao did not think of explaining too much and insisted on presenting the letter in his hand.
Shao Lecheng looked curious: "General Zou, you have nothing to do with the Prime Minister's case, right? What evidence can you provide?"
Zou Yangyao looked straight ahead, not even bothering to look at Shao Lecheng, and only responded coldly: "Whether this evidence can be regarded as evidence depends on the opinions of the adults. Your Highness, don't worry about it!"
These words seemed to be very disdainful of Shao Lecheng?
Shao Lecheng frowned. He knew that Zou Yangyao must be on the side of the Prime Minister's Mansion, but he really couldn't guess what he had presented.
Moreover, Ni Yueshan and Jing Yuchen have not appeared until now. It is definitely not because they think that the Prime Minister is hopeless. Perhaps they want to obtain other evidence, but have not got it yet, so they have not come.
After reading the testimony, Kang Xueyi said, "If what Minister Tai's granddaughter said is true, the Prime Minister can be declared not guilty!"
Minister Tai frowned, then asked, "General Zou, why do you have Banxue's handwritten letter?"
"It was me who rescued Miss Tai from the Prince's Mansion that day. This time, I heard from the Regent and his wife that Miss Tai was seriously ill. As someone who still has some friendship with her, I went to visit her."
"After discussing the Prime Minister's case, she pulled herself together and wrote this testimony! Minister Tai should be able to recognize the handwriting!"
Minister Tai looked at the testimony before him. The handwriting was undoubtedly Tai Banxue's, but Tai Banxue was too weak, so the handwriting was very faint and trembling...
He nodded. "It's Banxue's handwriting, no doubt. Even though she was so ill, she still had the energy to write this testimony!"
As he spoke, he sighed and felt quite distressed.
Zou Yangyao turned to look at Shao Lecheng. Shao Lecheng obviously found it hard to accept.
Hongchou deliberately infected Tai Banxue with the plague, but unexpectedly, Tai Banxue still wrote a testimony.
Moreover, unexpectedly, the person who kidnapped Tai Banxue that day was actually Zou Yangyao!
He stretched out his hand: "Let this king see!"
The testimony was handed to him. Shao Lecheng glanced at it. Although the handwriting was a little crooked, it did not affect his recognition of the words at all. There was also Tai Banxue's own handwriting signature at the bottom.
Seeing Shao Lecheng gritting his teeth, Kang Xueyi said somewhat awkwardly, "If everything Miss Tai wrote is true, Prince, please explain whether you had a secret conversation with the Princess about framing the Prime Minister that day!"
"If it's really you, then what's your relationship with Yi Wenxuan? And were you also the one who bribed the Imperial Observatory?"
Faced with each question, Shao Lecheng immediately angrily retorted, "Nonsense! How could I possibly have any connection with Tufan's people? If I had asked the Imperial Observatory to do something bad, why would those two women from the brothel choose to endure torture rather than confess me? I don't have the ability to make them deny it to death!"
What Shao Lecheng said is indeed correct...
Kang Xueyi and the other two started discussing again. At this time, footsteps were heard outside the cell. They looked in that direction and saw that it was Ni Yueshan and Jing Yuchen who were late.
But behind the two of them, there was a guard dragging a man. The man's head was covered and his face could not be seen, but he was tied up tightly and was definitely a criminal.
Before the three of them stood up to salute, Jing Yuchen had already spoken first: "Send Yi Wenxuan over!"
Afterwards, Yi Wenxuan was brought over. Jing Yuchen also winked at the guards. After the thing covering his head was taken off, the person who came into the sight of several people had a look of surprise on their faces.
