Chapter 116 Perjury and False Accusation
After several admonishers gave full evidence of Jiang's father and brother's corruption, the people in the court began to talk again, pointing and pointing at Jiang's father and brother.

"Your Majesty is clearly aware that the minister and the dog have been working diligently for the country, so they cannot do these things... Even if they have the guts of a bear, they dare not do such a thing..."

Jiang's father was afraid of things, so he trembled when he spoke, and pulled Jiang Han to kneel down while talking. The Jiang family has served the court for generations and is a famous family of loyal officials.But Father Jiang quietly raised his eyes and saw the emperor's reaction. He believed these nonsense, and he felt a little chilled.

"Did I treat your Jiang family poorly? I have always valued Jiang Taifu before, so I can rest assured that both of you father and son will also become officials in politics and serve the court. But I never thought that even you would be corrupt! Now the Minister of the Ministry of Officials Both Qin Yushi and Qin Yushi have listed all the evidence, how do you want to argue!"

The emperor also knew that the Jiang family was obedient, but he hated corruption the most, and it was the Jiang family who did it, and his anger completely overwhelmed the rationality in his heart.

The father and son kneeled and kowtowed with their heads down, their foreheads sweating, worried that the Jiang family would be wiped out by the emperor.

"His Majesty--"

Jiang Han was about to speak, but was interrupted by a cold voice.He thought it was another admonisher who wanted to read a copy, which made it difficult for his family to argue.

"I believe that the words of the Minister of the Ministry of Officials and Qin Yushi are not credible. No matter how you say it, the Jiang family is a family of officials appointed by the court. I hope that Your Majesty will listen to the opinions of the ministers, and don't chill the hearts of the Jiang family and his son."

Everyone thought that the Jiang family's corruption was a certainty, but Gu Mo reappeared, and the discussion became more serious.

It's Gu Mo again!The prince saw that the emperor was about to destroy the Jiang family, so Gu Mo came out to make trouble again and help the Jiang family.Sure enough, this Gu Mo was having an affair with that Jiang Yue!
Before the emperor could speak, the crown prince said anxiously: "Your Majesty, the Jiang family's corruption is well-documented. If Your Majesty doesn't make a quick decision, I'm afraid it will chill the hearts of the people of the country."

The Jiang family's criminal evidence was forged yesterday by his order, but it cannot withstand scrutiny, the longer it takes, the more unfavorable it will be for him, and the emperor must be convicted as soon as possible.

"His Royal Highness, the minister has not yet revealed the full of loopholes in the evidence. Why is Your Highness so anxious to convict the Jiang family? Could it be that he has a personal enmity with the Jiang family?"

Jiang Yue used Shengjing rumors to harm the prince. Gu Mo already knew that the prince would do something against the Jiang family in the court today, and the prince was suppressed just now, so he must not have done it with his own hands, so he did it long ago. Prepare for everything.

Publicly avenging private revenge, moving to the imperial court is inevitable. Gu Mo knew that the emperor hated the ministers doing such small tricks in private, deliberately provoking the emperor.

"You two talk to each other, what kind of place do you think this is?" The emperor also felt that the matter had nothing to do with the prince, who was indeed a little abnormal, "Gu Mo, tell me."

"Reporting to Your Majesty, please take a look at this receipt, Your Majesty, the date on it is a year ago, but the ink used on it is obviously the most recent."

"Also, the Danqing printed on the margin of this paper. The paper came out of the palace, but the Danqing on the rice paper used in the palace has been revised for more than a year. If it came out from the Ministry of Internal Affairs a year ago, it should be a new one. Danqing is right, why is it the Danqing pattern used before the modification?"

Hearing what Gu Mo said, the emperor kept looking at the receipt carefully.

"Then it can only be that someone wants to find a piece of old rice paper in order to forge evidence."

Slowly speaking, Gu Mo was very calm.

After listening to Gu Mo's words, the emperor suddenly realized.

"It is indeed a forgery. Someone wants to frame the Jiang family, you two stop kneeling and get up." The emperor finally came to a conclusion.

"Your Majesty, Xie Dingguo's son has returned the Jiang family's innocence." Father Jiang and Jiang Han kowtowed to the emperor before slowly standing up.

"Minister of the Ministry of Officials, Qin Yushi, what is your intention to frame the Jiang family? This is the crime of deceiving the emperor."

Gu Mo said, but looked at the prince.Today, the prince instigated these admonishers to frame the Jiang family, Gu Mo was very angry, since the prince himself wanted to pick things up, he couldn't let the prince go.

The two people whose names were called quickly knelt down, crying and begging the emperor for forgiveness.

They were secretly summoned by the prince to go to the East Palace last night. The prince gave them the forged evidence, saying that the Jiang family must be destroyed, so that they can secure this high position in the court in the future.

Who is this crown prince? He has a high position and authority. Although he was punished, it can still be seen that the emperor thinks highly of him.In addition, the prince repeatedly assured that there was no problem with the evidence, and the two agreed.

"Absurd! Really absurd! Do you think this court is a child's play? Use fake things to lie to me! I think you all don't want your heads!" The more the emperor thought about it, the more angry he became, and his face turned red.

"Say! Why did you frame the Jiang family!" The emperor was anxious, and stood up from the dragon chair to question the Minister of the Ministry of Officials and Qin Yushi.

The two of them were terrified, but they didn't dare to reveal the truth behind the prince's manipulation. Neither side could afford to offend them, so they could only cringe and talk about their obsession, asking the emperor to forgive them.

The prince didn't dare to glance over there, the official hat was almost soaked with sweat from his forehead, he secretly begged Gu Mo to stop talking, but it was not as he wished.

"The crime of deceiving the emperor is to punish the nine clans. Aren't you telling the truth?" Gu Mo looked at the Minister of the Ministry of Officials and Qin Yushi.

When the two kneeling heard Gu Mo's words, they couldn't bear it any longer. If they were going to die anyway, it would be better to ask the emperor for a lighter sentence.

"Your Majesty, it's the crown prince, it's His Royal Highness the crown prince!" The two spoke in unison.

"His Royal Highness, he found us yesterday and threatened us to present these 'criminal evidence' in court today, saying that as long as we frame the Jiang family, we will benefit. He is His Royal Highness, and we dare not disobey him..." Qin The censor finished speaking trembling and searching.

"Father! My son didn't! My son only lifted the ban two days ago. How dare you provoke me to anger my father again? I'm afraid that recently, some people are jealous of my son's position as the crown prince and want to collude with others to frame my son!"

"The prince was speaking for you just now, why did you frame the prince? Father, don't listen to their slander!"

The emperor saw that the prince was flustered, and what he said was not unreasonable. He couldn't help but feel that the prince was fascinated by ghosts. He was blinded by the villain for a while, and he still loved the prince a little bit in his heart, and couldn't bear to punish him too much.

"You will be confined in the East Palace for another ten days, and you have always caused trouble recently. If you don't reflect clearly, you will treat this as a joke..."

"Why, Father! Father even convicts my son without a thorough investigation! My son refuses to accept!" The prince gritted his teeth.

"The prince beat the female family members in the mansion, and gave false testimony to frame the official. How many days can this be overcome?"
