Conspiracy

Chapter 113

"Don't worry, Taiwei. The truth is not yet clear. If your young master really has nothing to do with this case, I will definitely not let others slander him."

"Your majesty is wise!" Tang Taiwei bent down and bowed.

Shang Yu frame then asked, "Yu Qianhu, where is Tang Yinchen now?"

"Reporting to the emperor, Mr. Tang and the son of the great scholar Yang are outside the palace. They are inseparable and never want to be separated. I had no choice but to bring them into the palace together."

"pass."

"Tang Yinchen, Yang Huanzhi will see you."

Manager Fang's sharp and drawn out voice echoed in the Golden Luan Hall.

Outside the hall, Tang Yinchen and Tang Yinchen, who had become the target of public criticism, were chatting leisurely.

"Someone framed you like this, it seems that you are quite unpopular."

Tang Yinchen scratched his head and said dissatisfiedly, "Brother! That's none of my business! Some people may be jealous of me being close to you, thinking that I can marry you if I die, and succeed in becoming a leader."

A sense of powerlessness emerged in Yang Huanzhi's heart, and he rubbed the center of his brows, "When you enter the palace later, don't talk nonsense, lest someone take advantage of your loopholes."

Tang Yinchen said calmly, "Don't worry, I didn't kill the person, could it be possible that the emperor can forcefully pin this shit on my head?"

Yang Huanzhi quickly covered his mouth, "Speak carefully!"

"Ouch!" Tang Yinchen pulled his hand off, "If you take the blame, you will take the blame. Anyway, it's not the first time. If you recite too much, it's a big deal to ask the cook to cook for you."

"I really don't know whether to praise you for being generous or brainless!"

Tang Yinchen was about to refute, but when he heard the summons from the hall, he straightened up his clothes and entered the room with a straight face.

Although he has a reckless personality, he is also familiar with the rules of the palace, and the two of them walked steadily, with their heads lowered and not squinting.

When they got to the front of the hall, they lifted up their robes and kowtowed.

"The courtier Tang Yinchen kowtowed to the emperor."

"The subject Yang Huanzhi kowtowed to the emperor."

Grand Master Yang stood among the courtiers, worried in his heart,
Shang Yu frame did not allow the two of them to flatten their bodies, and asked in a low voice with his forearm on the armrest of the dragon chair, "Tang Yinchen, are you guilty?"

"My subject is not guilty." Tang Yinchen replied confidently.

"Now that all the evidence points to you killing Xu Lin, what else do you have to say?"

"Reporting to the emperor, poor people have their own hateful things, and wicked people have their own tortures. Xu Lin's tragic death is very gratifying, but this matter is definitely not the work of my servants."

Shang Yu frame suddenly became interested, "You hate him?"

"Yes! Xu Lin often robs civilian girls and commits all kinds of crimes. He doesn't deserve any sympathy."

"Even if he does a lot of evil, he will be punished by Luo Qi's law."

"Your Majesty is in the deep palace, so how can you hear evil things from the people?" Tang Yinchen said bluntly.

"presumptuous!"

Seeing the sullen expression on the emperor's face, Yang Huanzhi had a headache, "The emperor calms down, Yin Chen has always been outspoken and did not mean to contradict."

Shang Yu frame narrowed his eyes slightly, "Yang Huanzhi, I have heard the academician say that you are strict with yourself, why are you willing to become a dandy?"

"Reporting to the emperor, the courtier has never done anything excessive, and strictly abides by the etiquette. Others spread rumors, which will not only damage the reputation of the courtier, but also confuse the audience."

"I heard that you were with Tang Yinchen last night?"

"Yes!"

"Is there anyone else here?"

"."

Yang Huanzhi moved his lips, hesitant.

If he said yes, he would definitely involve the prince and the young master of the Su family, but if he said no, wouldn't it be a crime of deceiving the emperor?

"Why didn't you reply? But are you thinking of making up nonsense to deceive me?"

Master Yang broke out in a cold sweat when he heard the words, and hurriedly gave him winks, but the latter turned a deaf ear to him.

"Your Majesty, no matter who the subject was with last night, Yin Chen is definitely not the murderer. It's ridiculous to convict him of a felony murder with just a jade buckle."

Yu Changqing stood among the courtiers, squinting at Yang Huan, without any disturbance in his heart.

"Oh?" Shang Yu frame raised his eyebrows, "According to what you mean, do you want to say that someone planted a frame?"

"I don't dare to speak nonsense, but the two of us went to Jiyuefang last night. It was just a temporary act, and Xu Lin went to make troubles. It was a coincidence. If Yinchen is really the murderer, he must have prepared everything in advance. Change clothes after killing to avoid blood stains. Since he can think so thoughtfully, how can he be so stupid as to kill people with accessories? Or even carelessly lose them?"

Xu Jing was furious and reprimanded loudly, "Yang Huanzhi! These are all your one-sided words. The two of you are working together, and you have already conspired to kill your younger brother!"

"Xu Duwei carefully said that there is no other evidence of crime except for a jade buckle. You said that Yinchen vented his anger for the murder of a woman in the Red Chamber. Then I may feel that someone who is not used to Yinchen's behavior is deliberately framed. Xu Lin's death made a big fuss, and it's not impossible to take the opportunity to rise to power!"

Tang Yinchen laughed secretly in his heart, whoever said Yang Huanzhi was pedantic was obviously as careful as dust.

"Presumptuous! How dare you openly provoke in front of the emperor!"

"Captain Xu, justice is at your fingertips! Maybe Lingdi has done too many bad things, and maybe he will be punished by God."

Shang Yu's eyes were full of smiles, "Yang Huanzhi, do you firmly believe that Tang Yinchen didn't kill anyone?"

"Yes! I am willing to use my head as a guarantee! I beg the emperor to give me more time to find out the real culprit. If the murderer cannot be found out, I am willing to die with Yin Chen!"

After Tang Yinchen was astonished, he raised his head and looked straight at him, and said with a smile, "Even if the whole world doesn't believe me and curse me, so why not? To get this brother, this life is not in vain. Lao Yang, on weekdays I I said you were rigid, heavy on red tape, and abided by the rules, but it turned out that I underestimated your integrity and stubbornness."

"Because it's you, I believe in you." The corners of Yang Huanzhi's lips curled up, his gaze never evading.

Needless to say, because it happened to be him, if it were someone else, he might not put away his principles and help desperately.

"In the future, if you fight against others, as long as your eyes meet, I, Tang Yinchen, will face you with my sword!"

Looking at the two people who smiled knowingly, with a dignified look on their faces, Yu Changqing lightly pursed his lips, "Your Majesty, what Mr. Yang said earlier was justified, and he brought the two of them into the palace today because he was moved by his rigidity. I want to give him a chance to defend himself at the Golden Throne Hall."

Tang Yinchen didn't expect Yu Changqing to speak up for them, and when he turned around, his eyes were a little more moved.

Seeing that the barrier of trust between them was unbreakable, Captain Xu said angrily, "Mr. Yang, in your eyes, Tang Yinchen is righteous, but he is full of bad deeds among the people!"

"What is the truth? The emperor has his own decision. Why should Captain Xu make alarmist remarks?"

"Murder, drop the jade buckle, meet an assassin, be arrested, enter the Golden Palace." Tang Yinchen roughly summed up what happened in this short night, "Captain Xu thinks this is my itinerary last night, but you don't think all this Too logical? You have the heart to argue with us, why don't you think about how many enemies Xu Lin has provoked. No matter how vicious I am, no one wants to make my death so miserable."

The two sang and chorused so deeply that some of the courtiers couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Tang Yinchen!"

Tang Yinchen poked his ears out and said sarcastically, "Actually, it's ridiculous. Before entering the palace today, the people on the way said that our brother, Mr. Yu and Mr. Su's family bullied men and women, and they did all kinds of evil. People's words are terrible. , Captain, if you can find someone to testify, I will bear the charge! But if not, then I have to suspect that it is you who wantonly spread rumors among the people and want to put us to death!"

"You are talking nonsense! Talking nonsense and slandering the courtiers, what should you do?!"

"You seem to be teasing me? You can frame me, but I can't make wild guesses. What's the point?"

Yang Huanzhi is upright, Tang Yinchen is sharp, Xu Jing is speechless between the two of them.
