Chapter 327

For a moment, he even wanted to run away, but was pushed by the officials behind him, and staggered into the place where he should be standing in the hall. When he saw the emperor walking into the hall with a cold expression, followed by Gao When the father-in-law held an imperial decree in his hand, cold sweat suddenly oozed from his forehead, and his complexion turned pale.

When all civil and military officials chanted 'Long Live the Emperor' and knelt down to salute, Li Dehai couldn't help but his legs went limp, and he almost couldn't stand up. When he finally stood up tremblingly, he heard the person on the dragon chair pat him hard. When he finished the case, his body shook violently, and he couldn't control the 'plop' and knelt down on the ground again.

The officials in the hall were startled by the emperor, and then they turned their heads to look at Li Dehai's movement.

"Why did Li Aiqing kneel down again?" Feng Yunhui snorted coldly in an unclear tone, "Could it be that she knows what I'm going to say and is going to confess her guilt first?"

Li Dehai's face became paler, even a little blue, and he tried to stand up several times, but for some reason, he felt an invisible pressure on his shoulders that kept him unable to move, so he could only try his best to keep calm and say: "Mr. It rained twice in a few days, I suffered from a leg ailment, lost my composure for a while, and asked the emperor to make amends, I don’t know where the emperor’s so-called confession came from, and the minister panicked.”

"Afraid? I didn't see where you were terrified, but I just thought, Li Aiqing, you are so courageous!" Feng Yunhui suddenly shouted angrily.

Except for a few ministers such as Feng Yunxiu, and a few old county kings and old generals, the rest of the ministers knelt down and shouted habitually: "Your Majesty, calm down!"

Feng Yunhui waved his hand to signal them to stand up, "I ordered the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple to conduct a thorough investigation into the case of Xiao Renli, the former servant of the household department. I have obtained enough evidence yesterday, and I have also uncovered the real mastermind behind the scenes. Feng Aiqing, Sun Aiqing, Tell me, let Li Aiqing...convince this traitor!"

The sudden change of address has already proved that Li Dehai today cannot be kind.

The ministers who knew the inside story were not surprised, but... a traitor?How to talk about it?
The Secretary of the Ministry of Justice and the Minister of Dali Temple came forward respectively, and while presenting the evidence they had prepared long ago, they also carefully explained the facts of the case they had found.

As they talked more and more, Li Dehai's expression changed from shock and disbelief to finally turning into a mournful and disheartened face.

That's all for other witnesses. Among the information held by the Ministry of Criminal Justice and Dali Temple, there is actually some important information provided by his staff, including the evidence obtained, which is clearly a secret account book that he has been hiding in a secret room in the mansion. , except for a few insiders, it is impossible for others to find it!

Those who eat inside and out!
The only thing he should be thankful for is that those ledgers were not placed in the same place as some secret letters, and the staff members did not know the existence of the secret letters, otherwise...

Xiao Yunchu heard it for a long time before he realized that Li Dehai had not only charged father Xiao with a bunch of unwarranted crimes, more than [-]% of the crimes enough to make the Xiao family confiscated and exiled were all immoral things committed by himself. It was Xiao's father who took the blame for him, but he himself licked his face and stepped on his former boss!
This operation can be said to be quite cheap.

Even if the ministers in the palace knew that Li Dehai was responsible for what happened back then, most of them didn't know how dark he was. Many old ministers shook their heads, knowing that Li Dehai was really going to die.

But they still underestimated Li Dehai's audacity. After the Minister of Criminal Affairs reported the Xiao family's case, Dali Temple Secretary took out a stack of papers from his arms, which looked like letters?
Li Dehai, who was sitting on the ground, suddenly showed a more panicked expression, and exclaimed: "No, how could it be—"

Sun Miao didn't even look at Li Dehai, and respectfully presented the letters with both hands, and said at the same time: "These are the evidence provided by Li Dehai's former staff who turned to the dark, and they are secret letters of Li Dehai's collusion with Beiyue, which mentions his greed for ink. Most of the large sum of stolen money was quietly sent to Beiyue."

"what!?"

"Beiyue!?"

"Li Dehai, how dare you collude with Beiyue!? Are you collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country!?"

All the ministers who were purely listening to the scene suddenly exploded, especially the old generals who fought with Beiyue when they were young, who reacted the most, their faces were livid with anger, and their eyes looked fierce like they wanted to eat people.

"Impossible, the staff in my mansion don't even know where these secret letters are hidden—!" Li Dehai blurted out.

After Xiao Yunchu heard this, he silently glanced at the calm-looking man beside him, seeming to realize something.

Others don't care where the secret letter came from. After the emperor has read the content of the secret letter, and then let Gao Gonggong forward it to other ministers to verify the authenticity, it can be regarded as completely boiling.

Li Dehai, a die-hard royalist, has long been collaborating with the enemy and Beiyue! ?The good Hubu Shangshu was wrong, and he was conferred the title of title by Beiyue in private!How many things have to be done to hurt Da Zhou and benefit Bei Yue to get such a good thing?
No wonder the emperor angrily denounced him as a traitor, it really didn't wrong him!
Those officials who were close to Li Dehai in the past, and even some of his disciples panicked, fearing that they would be implicated, and scolded Li Dehai, who was usually respected, in their hearts.

Feng Yunhui stared at him several times with cold eyes and opened his mouth to refute, but Li Dehai, who was speechless because of the overwhelming evidence that there was no room for debate, felt more and more that his decision to agree with Feng Yunxiu to deal with him was not wrong.

If Feng Yunxiu hadn't intercepted the secret letter that Li Dehai wanted to send to Beiyue for help in time, and found the rest of the secret letters of collaborating with the enemy, he would have been kept in the dark, and felt sorry for having to deal with a capable minister.

- What a pity!

It's not a pity to die a hundred times for this kind of shit that eats inside and out!

If the ministers hadn't remembered that this was the court hall, the furious old generals would rush over and beat Li Dehai directly to vent their anger.

The ironclad evidence is so strong that Li Dehai has no chance of standing up. After Feng Yunhui and other officials calmed down, they said: "Li Dehai corrupted the tax bank of Mohu, framed his colleagues, seized land, disregarded human life, and even dared to cooperate with the enemy and treason! Many crimes are evidence. It is true that the crime is unforgivable, and I have decided to go to Wusha and punish his three clans, so as to make an example to everyone else!"

"All lovers must take this as a warning. If I find anyone who is daring to act recklessly, disregarding the efforts of the ancestors, stepping on the bones of many soldiers who exchanged blood for peace in my great Zhou Dynasty, collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country, I will definitely punish you!" For the nine clans, execute him Ling Chi!"

All the ministers looked solemn, and they hurriedly knelt down and saluted, at the same time expressing their determination to the emperor.

"The ministers must live up to the high expectations of the Holy One, and die for the Great Zhou!"
