Hou Ye's palm heart is a black lotus

When Xiao Chengxuan received the order, his heart beat.

Along the way, he made some insinuations and finally asked Eunuch Li that his father's summons to him this time seemed to be related to Han Tong's case.

But he had just sent someone to warn Han Tong not long ago. Now that Han Tong's life was in his hands, how dare he make trouble?

I asked again, but couldn't get anything out.

After all, Eunuch Li is someone close to the Holy Emperor. He knows what things can be revealed, but what things cannot be mentioned even half a word.

Hurrying outside the royal study, Xiao Chengxuan could see sweat on his forehead.

He took a deep breath.

"My son, I pay my respects to my father."

Emperor Mu Wu looked coldly, and his old but still sharp eyes stared at him coldly.

There was deathly silence, and Xiao Chengxuan could even hear his own heartbeat.

Emperor Mu Wu didn't speak for a moment, so he didn't dare to get up. He knelt down and remained motionless.

Finally, a cold and stern voice came.

"Second brother, don't you have anything to say about the Huo Yucheng case?"

Huo Yucheng! ?

Xiao Chengxuan's eyelids twitched violently, and he panicked for a moment.

Could it be that Han Tong confessed something! ?

But this shouldn’t be the case!

It had obviously been taken care of before, especially those about Huo Yucheng, which involved the life and death of many people including Han Tong. How could he say this! ?

Han Tong had been with him for many years, and he knew his temperament quite well. In order to save his precious son, Han Tong even gave up his own life without saying a word. Why now - "What do you mean, father?" Forgive me for being stupid!"

Xiao Chengxuan knelt on the ground, full of confusion and shock, as if he really didn't know anything.

Wow——!

Emperor Mu Wu suddenly picked up the file at hand and threw it out with great force. Xiao Chengxuan did not dare to hide and was immediately hit hard on the forehead.

The file fell and was spread out in front of him. He couldn't help but glance at it. When he saw a certain person's name on it, his heart stopped immediately!

——Xu Jie!

"Han Tong said that when Xu Jie, then the Minister of War, reported Huo Yucheng for embezzling military pay, it was a false accusation! You were responsible for this case at the beginning, what did you say?"

Emperor Muwu pointed at him and said sternly,

"You said - the evidence is conclusive! The guilt is beyond defense!"

Huo Yucheng was punished for several crimes, and any one of them was a serious crime. That's why Emperor Mu Wu was so angry at that time and refused to allow anyone to plead for mercy. Even Ye Zheng, the only person who spoke for Huo Yucheng, was angered. .

But now three years have passed, and Huo Yucheng has been falsely accused!

If this one is false, then what about the other charges! ?

Xiao Chengxuan ignored the pain and raised his head to argue for himself: "Father! How is this possible? My son did find evidence from the Huo Mansion at that time. He -"

Han Tong is really crazy! He actually exposed this matter!

Xiao Chengxuan already hated Han Tong in his heart. He only regretted that he had acted too cautiously and allowed Han Tong to live for a while longer before causing such a disaster!

"Han Tong is a guilty minister, how can we trust what he says? Please give me a clear warning from my father!"

Emperor Mu Wu looked at him with cold eyes.

"Second brother, you have been outstanding since you were a child, and you have always paid attention to rules and regulations in doing things, so I handed this case to you. Can you really not find out whether Huo Yucheng embezzled military pay, and whether the so-called evidence is true or false?! "

Xiao Chengxuan's heart skipped a beat.

Father is so sure that he made a mistake in investigating the case. Could it be that... some evidence has been found?

But of course he couldn't admit it.

Xiao Chengxuan clenched his fists and said word by word:

"My son--I really don't know!" (End of Chapter)
