Great Ye Empress

Chapter 264 Reconciliation
Originally, the emperor ordered Xiao Zhiyan to investigate the corruption case. Xiao Zhiyan had the identity of the prince, and by the way, he did the disaster relief coordination together!
In the end, King Yan had led troops, he was decisive enough, his tactics should be tough and tough, he should be sharp and severe, and he should be gentle and gentle to the people.

Not to mention the people in the disaster-stricken area and Li Shaoqing, this time, whether it is the officials who went to investigate the case or go to disaster relief, which one is not convinced by Xiao Zhiyan?

Xie Yunchu could see that Li Shaoqing admired Xiao Zhiyan very much now.

She said: "My grandfather came to Beijing three days ago. Yesterday, Guozijian was invited to go to the Taoist temple where Mr. Min Buzhou stayed with his grandfather. The lower officials asked the three for help. I have already identified... the account book and the one left by Xue Zhi. The letters, as well as the confession that was left at the time of suicide, were written by the same person."

After finishing speaking, Xie Yunchu looked at Censor Niu and took out from his sleeve the testimony of Wang Zongsheng's wife and brother: "My lord, Wang Zongsheng, the steward of the First Prince's House, has been watched by our Censor Desk, Wang Zongsheng's wife. My brother was also invited to the Censor's Desk by the lower official this morning, and everything that needs to be explained has already been explained, and your lord can take the evidence to see your majesty! Check the first prince first!"

Censor Niu didn't expect Xie Yunchu's actions to be so neat, he nodded, and rubbed the ledger in his hand: "Let's enter the palace together!"

They were numerous and powerful, and even if the emperor wanted to suppress the case, he could not suppress it.

Furthermore, if the movement is louder, the censors in Taichung will rush to deliver letters to the eldest prince or the third prince.

"From the moment we left the Censor Terrace and entered the palace, anyone who came out of the Censor Terrace... sent someone to follow them secretly to see where they went!" Niu Yushi told Song Shaozhong, "I'll leave it to you!"

"Don't worry, my lord!" Song Shaozhong gritted his teeth, be sure to pull out the worms in Censor Taichung.

There is absolutely no place for villains in a place like the Censor's Desk.

·
There has been no news that Xue Zhi's account book or confession has been handed over to the Censor's desk, the first prince and the third prince were slightly relieved.

Now that the officials involved in the incident have been brought back one after another, the hearts of the two princes and their staff have also been raised.

"Yushi Niu announced to the public that the entire Xue family has died, and no one has sent any account books to the Yushitai. I want to come... This is just before Xue Zhi died, His Royal Highness Yu Ben saved the life of the Xue family!" The eldest prince said quietly. , I hated Xue Zhi so much that my teeth itch.

His father had announced him to the palace earlier, and told him that Niu Yushi wanted to use the deaths of Xue Zhi's wife, daughter, and son to catch Xue Zhi's backhand.

The father said, let him clean his butt, if he is caught, no one can keep him.

"Don't worry, Your Highness, I have already bribed the people from the Imperial City Division to send news to the officials under His Royal Highness in the Censor Tai Prison. Don't bite out of Shen Yanxing. What about Mr. Qian... He's also a smart person, as long as you know Xue Zhi If you die, you should know what to do...and your Highness will never be involved!"

Mr. Lu, the aide, said calmly to the eldest prince: "Now, the one who is more worried than His Highness should be the third prince. Come."

Mr. Lu, the staff member next to the eldest prince, has been appreciated by the eldest prince since he offered advice to the eldest prince last time and asked people to prepare a few more ledgers and drag all the princes into the water. Follow Lu's advice.

As soon as Mr. Lu finished speaking, he saw the eldest prince's personal guard rushing in: "Your Highness... The Censor Desk sent a message that Niu Yushi brought Xue Zhi's letters and accounts, and was in charge of investigating the corruption case this time. The official entered the palace to face the Holy Spirit!"

"Ledger?!" The eldest prince clenched the armrest of the chair suddenly, "Where did the account book come from?"

"His Royal Highness, it's not about where the ledger came from!" Mr. Lu turned to look at the eldest prince, "Your Highness should tell the third highness now, both of you have entered the palace with the ledger that involved the prince... just say yes. Others put it in front of the mansion! The two highnesses felt that the matter was very important, so they took the account book and entered the palace to face the saint!"

The eldest prince nodded, so many fake ledgers were enough to catch the censors off guard.

"His Royal Highness entered the palace with the fake account books of the third and fifth children, and let the third prince enter the palace with the account books of the second and fourth!" The first prince thought for a while and said.

Mr. Lu got up and walked in front of the eldest prince, and said, "There are so many ledgers appearing in front of your majesty in a while, your majesty chooses someone to identify the handwriting, and it is estimated that you should go to the imperial supervisor who identified Xue Zhi's handwriting last time. After entering the palace, you must strongly request to see Your Majesty alone, confess to His Majesty, ask His Majesty for protection, put pressure on the Imperial College to sacrifice wine, and maintain the royal face, His Majesty will then be willing to order punishment!"

The eldest prince got up and straightened his robes and nodded.

"Let's set off to see the Imperial College Sacrificial Wine at this moment, and tell the Imperial College Sacrificial Wine that His Majesty cares about the royal's face the most, and let the Imperial College Sacrificial Wine consider and do things. When things are done, the first prince will definitely not lose his benefits!" Mr. Lu said.

"You must choose your words carefully. The Imperial Academy's Sacrificial Wine is a scholar, and a scholar will inevitably have the sourness of his body!" The eldest prince frowned when he remembered the Imperial Academy Sacrificial Wine.

"Don't worry, Your Highness, you know what you have in mind." Mr. Lu saluted the eldest prince.

After sending the eldest prince away, Mr. Lu handed over the two ledger books to the third prince, and made a special explanation... Let the third prince be told that the eldest prince intends to bring the ledger books to see His Majesty alone.

What Mr. Lu meant was to make the third prince feel that... the eldest prince did this to show the emperor a gesture of maintaining the dignity of the royal family.

The third prince naturally understands, and he has to make a gesture, to persuade the emperor to give priority to the authority and dignity of the royal family, so as to show the emperor... No matter how their brothers fight, it is related to the first prince of the royal family and the third prince must work together.

The emperor will be somewhat relieved, and he will be more partial to his son.

·
Niu Yushi, Xie Yunchu, Wang Shilang, and Li Shaoqing told the emperor about the ins and outs of the case.

The emperor looked at the completely different confessions of the officials who were escorted back to Bianjing, and some people even said that their first confession was absolutely the same as the second one, and then signed it.

When I saw Xue Zhi's account book and another letter, even the name of the steward in the First Prince's Mansion was clearly written, and it was stated that the place where the accounts were reconciled was the mansion of the First Prince's Mansion's wife and brother!

Even the confession of Wang Zongsheng's wife and brother was obtained.

Wang Zongsheng's brother-in-law said in the confession that Wang Zongsheng would reconcile accounts for the eldest prince every year in his little house, and he would provide a place... The eldest prince's mansion would give him 100 taels of silver a year, as long as he kept his mouth shut.
