Chapter 55 Counterattack
Liu Li's eyes widened, and she saw that Fang Hu broke free from the jailer's hand, and was about to hit her. Fu Sisi quickly stopped her, Fang Hu stared at Liu Li, and said, "Who did you listen to? What did you do?" What is it!"

Liu Li bit her lower lip, then smiled, and said, "You start to doubt your sister after hearing what they said, and you don't deserve to be my elder brother!"

"What about the mother!" Fang Hu wiped away his tears and said, "You were poisoned to kill His Majesty, have you ever thought about what would happen to your mother if she found out? Liuli, why are you so confused? How can your mother be cured? ah!"

Liuli tugged at the rope, trying to move towards Fang Hu with difficulty, her brows and eyes were stained with anger, and she said: "It's not you! You are indecisive, you don't know how to do things, and you still look like this after several years. My mother sees a doctor. How much money do you take out? What can I do! Can I just watch her die?"

"Then you can't go to places like Huanyan Pavilion!" Fang Hu roared.

"If you have a way, why should I use such a despicable method?" Liuli cried, with blood on her wrist, she wanted to pinch Fang Hu's neck, and asked him what he had done, and in what capacity he came Examine yourself.

Fang Hu knelt on the ground, he gradually calmed down, and said, "I am incompetent, but if you do this, you can only seek your own death..."

Li Xunchuan frowned, and said, "When I came here, Prison Fu had already sent someone to treat your mother. Now tell me who is behind you, and I can let you go."

Liuli raised her lips and smiled. She looked at Li Yuchuan and said, "The governor is really easy to talk to. If I say it, I will kill myself."

Fu Sisi crumpled her clothes, she sighed, and said: "Liuli, you are on the road of no return for the sake of your mother. Prison is not a place without humanity. We will let you go, but you must cooperate obediently. Tell me, who ordered you."

Her laughter became more and more frantic, until Luo Ling hurried over, Fu Sisi frowned and said, "What's the matter?"

"Prisoner, governor, Liuli's mother... is dead." Luo Ling said with his head bowed.

Fang Hu's eyes widened and he said, "You...what did you say?"

Fu Sisi said, "What's going on?"

Luo Ling said in a low voice, "Yes, it was poisoned, the same kind as the one on Liuli's nails."

Fu Sisi stared at Liuli and said, "...is that you?"

Li Xunchuan watched the corner of Liuli's mouth twitch, and felt something was wrong. When he was about to step forward to look, Liuli had already vomited blood. Fang Hu grabbed Liuli's collar like crazy, the blood stained his robe, but he could only hear him screaming. He wrote: "You will die badly! You will die badly!"

Li Xunchuan pulled Fang Hu and said, "Say! Who is the person behind you!"

After a while, Liuli lowered her head and lost her breath.

Fang Hu smiled coldly, then raised his head to the sky and shouted loudly. He pinched Liuli like crazy, and didn't let go until he realized that Liuli's body was cold.

Luo Ling asked someone to carry Fang Hu down, and when Wu Zuo came, Liu Li's face turned purple, which was also a sign of poisoning.

Fu Sisi sighed, and said: "This person instigated Liuli and even killed his mother, he is really vicious."

Li Xunchuan looked at Fu Sisi and said, "How do you know that person killed her mother? Why couldn't it be Liuli herself?"

Fu Sisi didn't understand what Li Yanchuan meant, she frowned and said, "How could someone kill my mother?"

Li Xunchuan shook his head and said, "Anything is possible. Prisoner, arrange the confession, and have to go to the palace tomorrow morning."

Fu Sisi didn't ask any further questions, she looked at Liuli and said, "Bury her, she is a poor person who is being used anyway."

Li Xunchuan took a big step forward without looking back.

***
At three quarters of the hour, Xu Zheng faintly woke up once, and the imperial physicians almost wanted to burn incense and worship Buddha, as long as Xu Zheng woke up, there would be nothing to do for the time being.

Chu Shiyu was called up, and before he had time to wash up, he hurried to Xu Zheng's room. Xu Zheng's complexion was still very bad, but when he saw Chu Shiyu, he was full of worry.

"His Majesty……"

Chu Shiyu breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Your Prime Minister, I'm here. Don't talk, you need to rest."

Xu Zheng nodded, Chu Shiyu watched Xu Zheng fall asleep before getting up, and he was about to go to court, Yuan Lu supported him, Chu Shiyu said: "Let the people from the Imperial Hospital take turns guarding here, this morning, I will definitely give the Prime Minister an explanation."

Yuan Lu nodded and said, "Your servant has written it down."

Li Xunchuan and Fu Sisi entered the palace early in the morning, all the officials from the fourth grade who attended the banquet yesterday had to come to the temple, and Liu Yulin led the Guozijian team to the end.

Li Xunchuan glanced at Zhuo Ran, then looked away, Xiyu handed something to Li Xunchuan, and said in a low voice, "Master, it has been arranged."

As soon as Li Xunchuan raised his hand, Xiyu stepped back first.

Fu Sisi didn't dare to look for Zhuo Ran, she had to be solemn and dignified when entering the hall, whispering was not allowed, even coughing was not allowed.With Yan Yingzhen as the leader, he quickly entered the palace.

Zhuo Ran stood behind Liu Yulin, and in front of him were six ministers and servants. Li Xunchuan was next to Yan Yingzhen, and Yan Chengxuan was close to Zhuo Ran. After secretly saying hello, he kept staring at Li Xunchuan.

Chu Shiyu put his hands on the dragon chair, and said in a deep voice, "The matter of yesterday can be investigated."

Wang Jitong, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, came out, saluted, and said, "Your Majesty, Liuli's confession has been submitted to the Ministry of Punishment, and now it will be reviewed and recorded by Dali Temple to prove that the poisoning was indeed done by Liuli."

"I want to hear the reason."

Wang Jitong said: "Liuli is the maid of the Yiluan Department, and her elder brother Fang Hu is an order of the Department of Food and Beverages. She lives in Lianhua Lane. Her mother suffers from a chronic illness but has no money to treat her, and Fang Hu's salary can't support it, so Liuli moved to celebrate. Ge's idea of ​​being a flower girl, but it still doesn't work, and he was instigated by others to cause a catastrophe."

Chu Shiyu turned his gaze to Li Yuchuan, then quickly moved back, and said, "Who is behind Liuli?"

Wang Jitong looked at Li Yuchuan and said, "The governor and the jailer..."

Fu Sisi lowered her head.

Li Xunchuan bowed his head and said: "Return to Your Majesty, Liuli has committed suicide by taking poison, and the ministers are incompetent, and have not asked who is behind her."

Chu Shiyu frowned and said, "So... you have to tell me that this is an inexplicable matter?"

Li Xunchuan fell silent.

"If it weren't for the right minister, I would be the one walking towards the gate of hell today!" Chu Shiyu squeezed the dragon chair tightly, and said, "Now you tell me that the person is dead, what exactly are you doing?!"

All the officials knelt down and bowed their heads, Chu Shiyu stood up, the jade jade was jingled by the shaking, he sighed, and said: "Then check it from his brother, I don't believe that there will be no clues left!"

He Xiyao, the magistrate of the trial court, raised his head, and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty... I have something to play."

Chu Shiyu sat down and said, "Everyone get up. What do you want to say, Mr. He?"

He Xiyao bowed his head and said, "Your Majesty, before the banquet, I saw Jin Wei Xiyu and Liu Li talking together, but I didn't hear what they said."

Li Xunchuan opened his eyes wide.

Chu Shiyu looked at Li Yuchuan, frowned, and said, "... Chi Yue?"

Li Xunchuan immediately knelt down and said, "Your Majesty understands that my guards have been following me all along and have never had any contact with Liuli."

Chu Shiyu turned his head to look at He Xiyao, and said, "Master He, do you have evidence?"

He Xiyao lowered his head and said, "I saw it with my own eyes."

Li Xunchuan said: "Master He is playing tricks, which eye saw it, do you want me to show you if you are blind?"

"Chi Yue!" Chu Shiyu yelled in a low voice, Li Xunchuan turned to Chu Shiyu, and said, "Your Majesty, Xiyu has never come into contact with Liuli with me, and I guarantee it with my life."

Chu Shiyu frowned, and was about to speak when Wang Jitong also knelt down and said, "Your Majesty... I also want to join the Governor of the Imperial Army."

Chu Shiyu looked at Li Yuchuan, then at Wang Jitong, and said, "Tell me."

"Returning to Your Majesty, Governor Jinwei Xiyu's father and Fang Hu's father are old acquaintances, but Liuli is the daughter of Fang Hu's mother and another man. No matter how they are related, Xiyu recognizes Liuli It's not surprising, and it's not surprising to help her." Wang Jitong said: "Besides, I also found out that Fang Hu and Liuli often go in and out of the Governor's Mansion, and I'm afraid they have a good relationship with the Governor."

Li Xunchuan smiled and said, "It's well edited."

Zhuo Ran secretly looked at Li Yuchuan, Yan Chengxuan kept his head down, as if he was about to fall asleep at any moment.

Wang Jitong took out a letter from his sleeve pocket and said, "Your Majesty, take a look, this is the letter that the governor asked Xiyu to hand over to Liuli."

Chu Shiyu opened the letter with suspicion, and the more he looked at it, the more angry he became. He frowned, raised his eyes to look at Li Yuchuan, and said, "Chi Yue...are you having an affair with Liuli?"

"The one who has an affair with Liuli is the safety of Guanglu Temple! What does it have to do with me, Li Chiyue?" Li Yanchuan said, "Your Majesty, I found out..."

He wanted to say something, but saw something falling out of his sleeve, which was the confession given to him by Xiyu. Li Xunchuan's heart trembled. Seeing that Yuan Lu had already bent over to pick it up, he frowned. Yuan Lu had already handed in the confession.

When Chu Shiyu saw it, he was even more furious. He threw the confession on the table and said in a trembling voice, "Chi Yue...is what written on it true?"

Li Xunchuan blinked and said, "Yes."

Chu Shiyu slapped the table and said loudly: "I have always trusted you, how dare you push all these things to Li Chengru? Jiyuan Temple, Guozijian, and the assassination of the school, you have left yourself clean!"

Li Xunchuan didn't seem to know what Chu Shiyu was talking about. He smiled and said, "That's the truth. It's up to His Majesty whether you believe it or not."

Yan Yingzhen said in a deep voice: "Your Excellency, please don't be presumptuous in front of Your Majesty."

"Hahahaha..." Li Yanchuan laughed, and said, "Today, the co-author is holding a killing conference for Li Chiyue."

"If the governor has never done it before, why should you be afraid of today's situation." Wang Jitong lowered his body and said, "Your Majesty, please thoroughly investigate the governor's mansion and strictly examine the guard Siyu!"

"If you want to investigate, just investigate me, and don't use the guards as an excuse." Li Yuchuan looked very angry, and he said: "The matter of Liuli poisoning can only be investigated so far. As for other matters, it has nothing to do with me!"

"The evidence here is that you are still arguing!" Chu Shiyu rarely did this to Li Yuchuan, he said: "I thought you were really loyal, but in the end... Li Chiyue, you let me down so much!"

There was no sound in the court hall, Yan Chengxuan slightly raised his head to glance at Li Yanchuan, then lowered his eyes and smiled.

Li Xunchuan didn't care at all, he looked at Chu Shiyu from a distance, and said, "Your Majesty can think whatever you want."

Chu Shiyu raised his voice: "Do you think I dare not touch you?"

Li Xunchuan turned a deaf ear to it.

Chu Shiyu sighed, and said: "Come here, the governor framed the officials, implicated the life and death of the right minister, and sent Li Yuchuan to the imperial prison. We will make a decision after the matter is clarified!"
