"Xiu'er, what are you talking about...??"
Ying Zhengxin said to Xiu'er, couldn't you see that Hu Hai wanted to kill you, why didn't you refute him and actually said he was right?
But Qin Xiu smiled and said:
"Father, I have the courage to reconsider. All persons involved in the case, no matter how noble their status, must be dealt with strictly in accordance with the law in order to be convincing!"
Even Hu Hai did not expect that Qin Xiu would say these words. Now the situation is extremely unfavorable to Qin Xiu. He is almost digging his own grave.
This can't be blamed on Hu Hai's ruthlessness.
"Do you know what you're doing?"
Ying Zheng looked at Qin Xiu in shock and asked.
Li Si found evidence of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country. Now the situation is very unfavorable to Qin Xiu, but Qin Xiu stood up on his own and threatened to severely punish him. Even if Ying Zheng wanted to protect him, it would be very difficult.
"Father, I hate traitors the most. If I collaborate with the enemy and treason, I will be thrown into a prison, demoted to a slave, and sent to the frontier to do hard labor for the rest of my life!"
Qin Xiu said with a smile.
Hu Hai smiled and continued:
"Brother Ninth, you said this yourself. If the Prime Minister comes up with irrefutable evidence later, don't ask Father."
"What I say always counts, but what if you are the one who collaborates with the enemy and treason?"
Qin Xiu asked Hu Hai coldly.
Hu Hai laughed loudly when he heard this.
"How could I collaborate with the enemy and treason? Is Ninth Brother out of his mind? I have never even left Xianyang City, and I have no chance to leak secrets."
"It is not necessary to leave the city to collaborate with the enemy."
Qin Xiu said neither salty nor cold.
Hu Hai was stimulated by Qin Xiu's words and vowed:
"I'm not your son, Xiu, so how can I collaborate with the enemy and treason? If I collaborate with the enemy and treason, there is no need for my father to issue an order. I will take off my golden crown, be thrown into a prison, be demoted to a pariah, and work as a coolie on the frontier for the rest of my life!"
"Remember what you said."
Qin Xiu smiled coldly, sat down and said nothing.
The hall fell silent.
"Prime Minister, you just said that you have irrefutable evidence, but is this evidence that the Ninth Young Master is collaborating with the enemy?"
Ying Zheng asked reluctantly.
Li Si pondered slightly and continued to play:
"Your Majesty, I have searched for letters of collaboration with the enemy. It is true that a prince collaborated with the enemy and treason, but it was not the Ninth Young Master. There was actually someone else who collaborated with the enemy."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked.
"Not Xiu'er?"
Ying Zheng was overjoyed and smiled happily.
From the beginning to the end, he trusted Qin Xiu and did not believe that he would collaborate with the enemy and treason. Now it seems to be true.
"Not Mr. Xiu?"
"Then who is collaborating with the enemy and treason?"
All the princes were stunned at this moment.
Because in everyone's eyes, the evidence of all Li Si's actions tonight was directed at Qin Xiu, but now it is said that there is someone else.
"What the hell is Li Si doing?"
Hu Hai's mood was like riding a roller coaster, rising and falling, up and down.
Seeing that Qin Xiu was bound to die, Li Si said that he had not collaborated with the enemy, and that it was someone else, which made Hu Hai very anxious.
"There are variables."
Zhao Gao frowned slightly.
He didn't know why, but he had an ominous feeling.
"Prime Minister, you said that there is someone else who is collaborating with the enemy. Now I ask you, who is collaborating with the enemy?"
Ying Zheng's words were solemn and severe.
And everyone is now curious about who is collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country.
"Your Majesty, this matter involves a current prince. I dare not make random assertions. All the relevant evidence is here. Please take a look at it!"
Li Si kicked the ball to Ying Zheng.
Ying Zheng thought that Li Si, an old fox, was really cunning, but when he thought about it, it was really inconvenient for him to make a conclusion on such a big matter, so he might as well come up with the outline himself.
The pudgy eunuch presented the evidence to Ying Zheng.
After Ying Zheng saw the relevant evidence, he suddenly became furious. He stood up angrily with the evidence, glared at Hu Hai on the seat with his long eyes, and angrily scolded:
"It turns out it's you, you're so brave!"
boom! !
The evidence hit Hu Hai hard in the face.
Pages of secret letters of collaborating with the enemy were scattered everywhere on the ground. The contents on them were vaguely visible, and they were Hu Hai's letters of collaborating with the enemy.
"what's the situation?!"
"It turned out to be Hu Hai who collaborated with the enemy?"
Not only were the princes shocked, but even Hu Hai himself was wide-eyed. He never expected that after the eighteen turns of the mountain road, the final evidence would point to him.
"Father, my son and I have never collaborated with the enemy or treason. The Prime Minister must have made a mistake."
Hu Hai was so frightened that he was sweating. He knelt on the ground in a panic, his face full of grievance and innocence.
He was really wronged.
Because he really did not collaborate with the enemy and treason.
But it didn't work.
The letters of collaboration with the enemy are in front of him. Even if he has a hundred mouths, he cannot explain them.
Zhao Gao hurriedly knelt down and explained:
"Your Majesty, Mr. Hu Hai is a student of the Za family. The Za family can vouch for his character. He has never left Xianyang Palace. He doesn't even know what rebellion looks like, and it is impossible for him to exchange letters and leak the core secrets of the empire."
now,
The hearts of their masters and disciples are extremely complicated.
This shit pot of collaborating with the enemy and treason was prepared for Qin Xiu. What happened now, the shit pot was actually put on his own head.
But there's no time to think about anything else now
They must clear their names quickly, otherwise they will be infamy for eternity.
Ying Zheng frowned and said:
"Li Si, although Hu Hai has a naughty temper, I don't think he dares to commit treason. Are you mistaken? Is this evidence reliable?"
"Absolutely reliable!"
Li Si said categorically.
Are you kidding me? Both Hu Hai and Qin Xiu are the princes of the current dynasty. He, Li Si, is so full that he wants to have trouble with a prince? What good does this do him?
Everything he did tonight was just his duty.
He never thought about punishing anyone. It was all business and relied on evidence to speak for itself.
"Your Majesty, the correspondence between Young Master Hu Hai and his collaborators with the enemy is hidden in the garden of the Young Master's residence. The old minister personally led people to dig out the documents. The Royal Forest Army can testify to this."
Li Si was right and honest.
Qin Xiu leisurely held the wine bottle and tasted it briefly, with a happy expression on his face, enjoying the show with a smile.
At this time, a charming voice came to my ears.
"Sir, my servant is back."
A beautiful woman wearing a long red dress with a hairpin in her hair, Yingying walked out and stood next to Qin Xiu.
This woman is none other than Yan Lingji.
She made tea and water gently, treated Qin Xiu respectfully, and behaved very affectionately.
"Well, just come back."
Qin Xiu smiled slightly at Yan Lingji.
it is more than words.
Yan Lingji looked back inadvertently, looking at Zhao Gao and Hu Hai from the corner of her eye, her lips immediately raised into a smile, and she said in her heart that if you harm others or yourself, you will suffer the consequences.
"It's that bitch!"
Zhao Gao, who was kneeling on the ground, gritted his teeth when he saw Yan Lingji standing tall and graceful beside Qin Xiu and acting so intimately.
He is a cunning old man.
At this moment, it can almost be concluded that Hu Hai was wronged for no reason and must have something to do with Yan Lingji.
"Zhao Gao, you are Hu Hai's teacher. Now the evidence is conclusive, what can you say?"
Ying Zheng spoke to Zhao Gao majestically.
Zhao Gao knelt on the ground and said:
"Your Majesty, Young Master Hu Hai is your own flesh and blood. Although he has a naughty temperament, he also knows what he can and cannot do. The Za family suspects that someone has framed him and wants to kill Young Master Hu Hai."
"Father, I really have not collaborated with the enemy and treason. I really have not."
Hu Hai explained tearfully.
The grievance and innocence on his face were not acted by him, they were all true feelings, because he was really wronged, even more wronged than Dou E.
Ying Zheng frowned upon seeing this.
They were also involved in treason, but Xiu'er dealt with it calmly and calmly.
But Hu Hai, this incompetent guy, is crying and so worthless. Not to mention that he has never had a Zen position to give him ideas, even if he does, he has to reconsider.
Zhao Gao explained again:
"Your Majesty, I feel that there must be an insidious villain who buried the stolen goods in Hu Hai's garden in advance. When the prime minister takes people to dig out, he will naturally dig them out accurately. The purpose is to frame Mr. Hu Hai. Your Majesty is an eternal man. The emperor will not be deceived."
This was a conspiracy he used to frame Qin Xiu. Originally he couldn't tell anyone even if he was beaten to death, but now in order to clear the suspicion, he told everything to prove his innocence.
After all, being able to keep Hu Hai is to keep a bright future.
"Prime Minister, what do you think?"
Ying Zheng looked at Li Si with his long eyes.
