Chapter 2167 Forced into a corner
The emperor frowned, could it be that this is really the case, the more unexpected, the more truth?
The emperor didn't want this to be the result, he didn't want the image of the third child in his heart to collapse all of a sudden.

The prince raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Lord Qiu, do you think Prince Mu meant that he arranged these things?" Lord Qiu didn't respond, and the prince continued to persuade: "You don't have to be afraid, in front of the emperor, you Say what you have."

Qiu Renwei shook his head again and again: "No, no, this matter has nothing to do with Prince Mu at all. The guilty minister didn't look at him, no!"

It's fine if Qiu Renwei didn't say that, but when he said that, Mu Li became even more suspicious, as if he was manipulating all of this behind the scenes, and even if Qiu Renwei was caught, he wouldn't dare to confess him.

With 30 troops in Mu Li's hands, it is possible for Qiu Renwei to be so frightened.

"Your Majesty, this incident was all done by the guilty minister alone. The reason why the guilty minister chose Mr. Chen was because Mr. Chen had no backing and was very frugal on weekdays, which just happened to wrong him for hiding all his money. He deliberately pretended to look like he had suffered a lot, so this minister came up with such a trick, the guilty minister knew his mistake, and asked the emperor to give him a lighter punishment and give this minister a way to survive."

"Sentence lightly?" The emperor snorted, "You did such a presumptuous thing and made the entire Mu Dynasty a mess because of you. Where did you have the face to say that you want me to give you a way out? Qiu Renwei, Qiu Renwei, before you decide to do it When this happens, you are already a dead person, understand!"

"Your Majesty, the offender is guilty. Even if the emperor wants to execute the offender, the offender will admit it, but the offender's family members are innocent. Please don't condemn them, Your Majesty."

The emperor sighed deeply. At this time, he could still think about his family members, so it was not bad after all. He was about to say something, but before he could speak, Mu Li said it.

"Lord Qiu, your thoughts are too good. This king will never believe it. Your family members don't know about you doing this. Therefore, they who help you conceal your crimes should be damned. Father and son suggested, Execute Qiu Renwei and his family together!"

Mu Li's move made the prince and Mr. Chen's eyes widen, it was completely unexpected.

The reason Mr. Qiu was willing to take the blame was because they threatened his family members, and he had to take the blame for the lives of his family members. But now, if it is said that because of his prostitution, his whole family would have to be buried with him. So why is he still pleading guilty?
"Third brother, even if Mr. Qiu's family members know about the situation, they should be executed together. That would be too much."

"Why is it too much? Brother Huang, don't you think it's right to kill? Such a person, his family members are all good people? It's useless to keep it. It's better to kill others so that others will not dare to do this kind of thing again."

The emperor raised his eyebrows. He seemed to understand why Mu Li said that. He just said that Mu Li couldn't be the manipulator behind the scenes. If he was, he wouldn't have said those words.

He is very clear that this is forcing a person to a desperate situation, and when a person is in a desperate situation, he will often tell the truth.

"What the third brother said is very true. It is indeed possible to kill chickens to make an example of monkeys. Qiu Renwei's crime this time is enough to implicate the nine clans. Now it is the end of my benevolence to kill only his Qiu family."
