Chapter 504 Unexpected
"Really?"

Wei Zhi showed a look of astonishment, he held the letter between his bandaged fingers, the more he looked back, the more he couldn't believe it, "Oh my god, this is written by that Feng Ruhai?"

"Yes, he wrote it before he died." Luo Ziyan said.

Wei Zhi let out a long sigh, and murmured, "Wu Lanchao, it turned out to be Wu Lanchao!"

"That's right, that's what it said in the letter." Luo Ziyan said lightly, "I just don't know if this Wu Lanchao is really the mastermind behind the scenes? Or is there someone else behind him."

Wei Zhi frowned deeply, "Father, pass on Wu Lanchao, this matter must be investigated thoroughly. If the eldest brother was wronged, then Wu Lanchao or the people behind him are really too sinister."

Wei Mingru sighed, "It has already been passed on, you just wait here."

Wei Mingru's tone was impatient.

This incident greatly exceeded his expectations, and at the same time, he was also very angry. Did the cases in the court all day long become a joke?This really embarrasses Wei Mingru.

Everyone present knew it well, so they didn't say anything, just waited silently.

Not long after, a guard outside brought Wu Lanchao in.

"The humble minister sees the emperor, sees the two princes, the prince's concubine."

"Hmph, Wu Lanchao, tell me, what did you do?!" Wei Mingru looked at Wu Lanchao angrily.

During the day, the oolong that the fourth prince embezzled money was enough to make him unhappy.

This day has not yet passed, and such a thing happened again.

Wu Lanchao was terrified, "Your Majesty, I don't understand what you are talking about, Your Majesty."

"Don't understand?!" Wei Mingru stared at him fiercely, "I ask you, have you ever framed the eldest prince Wei Xian?"

"Eldest prince—there is no such thing as a humble minister, Your Majesty, who did your Majesty hear from? The humble minister and the eldest prince, how could the humble minister frame the eldest prince?" Wu Lanchao said incoherently.

"Hmph, I'm still arguing, then show me what this is!" Wei Mingru took the letter and threw it on Wu Lanchao's face.

Wu Lanchao took it down and quickly glanced over.

Immediately afterwards, he saw his face turn pale.

"This--"

"Wu Lanchao, tell me, what's going on?!" Wei Xian also glared at Wu Lanchao viciously, "Did you really frame my elder brother?"

"Wei Chen—"

"Say!"

"I don't have this official, are these people trying to frame this official?"

"Framed you?" Wei Zhi said angrily, "Then why didn't he frame someone else? He just framed you."

"Weichen, how did I know?"

"Okay, if you still don't admit it, father, send someone to search Feng Ruhai's house to see if you can find those jade articles. If it is framed, then the jade articles should have been buried recently. Soil, but if it's old soil, it means that what Feng Ruhai said is very likely to be true."

Wei Zhi's aura is aggressive.

Meng Qianyan couldn't help but said: "Second brother, don't get excited. Before, weren't you very calm?"

"Hmph, brother and sister, I can't calm down about this matter. Before I saw this letter, I didn't believe that someone framed elder brother. But I saw it, how could I not believe it? Eldest brother is a compatriot of ours. If he is If someone framed him, I will never let him go to the person who framed him."

A good sentence will not let him go.

It's really high-sounding.

Luo Ziyan twitched the corners of his lips helplessly, secretly pulled Meng Qianyan, and shook his head at her.

Meng Qianyan understood, so he closed his mouth.

After Wei Zhi finished speaking, looking at Wu Lanchao again, Wu Lanchao seemed to have been shaken.

"Are you still refusing to admit it?" Wei Zhi said, "I tell you, there is not only this one piece of evidence. Before, you all said that elder brother was addicted to women, and raised several women in the county town. Those women's fourth brothers have already been found, how about they identify with their own eyes, which one is the real big brother?!"

Wei Zhi's questioning made Wu Lanchao, who was originally quite tough, gradually lose his toughness.

He bowed his head and remained silent.

"Don't tell me? Then bring those women up." Wei Mingru said, "Wu Lanchao, I'll give you another chance. Tell me clearly what's going on? What did you do, and who ordered you?" Yes? If you make it clear, I will let your family members go, but if you refuse to make it clear, I will even punish your family members."

Wu Lanchao breathed heavily, "Yes, the guilty minister admits."

"You admit it?" Meng Qianyan couldn't believe it.

"Yes, the guilty minister admits that he is the eldest prince framed by the criminal minister."

"What have you done?" Luo Ziyan asked.

"The criminal officials framed the eldest prince, said that the eldest prince embezzled military pay, said that the eldest prince was obsessed with women, including Feng Ruhai, who has been coerced by humble officials all the time. These are all true."

"You, why did you do this?" Luo Ziyan continued to ask: "Brother is the prince, but you are just a courtier."

"Yes." Wei Mingru thought deeply, looking deeply at Wu Lanchao, "Tell me, is there someone else behind you?"

"No more." Wu Lanchao quickly replied, "No one instigated the criminal minister, everything was done by the criminal minister. Because, because the criminal minister resents the eldest prince."

"Brother should have no grievances or enmities with you, right?" Wei Zhi said.

"Hehe, this is something that the second prince doesn't know. Does the second prince still remember what the queen Huashi did?"

Wei Zhi paused, lowered his voice, "Murder the emperor's heir."

"That's right, back then Fahrenheit killed the guilty minister's sister and the child in her womb, one corpse and two lives. Hehe, one corpse and two lives." Wu Lan looked coldly into his eyes, "Could it be that the debt just passed away? Is it?"

"That's what Empress Fahrenheit did, and it has nothing to do with elder brother."

"What about the child in the womb of the guilty minister's sister? Isn't he innocent?" Wu Lanchao was furious, "The criminal minister is just such a younger sister who died at the hands of Queen Hua at the age of 17!"

Wu Lanchao said this, and his eyes fell on Luo Ziyan, "Fourth Highness, you were born in the cold palace, but you survived, at least you have survived until now. But what about the child of the guilty minister's sister?" He has never even seen the sun and snow, so he has no chance to come to this world. Do you understand? Do you know how painful the parents of the guilty minister are?"

Luo Ziyan and Meng Qianyan were both stunned by what Wu Lanchao said.

This is indeed beyond their expectations.

None of them thought that Wu Lanchao would say these words.

"So, the criminal minister resents the eldest prince, and the criminal minister is resentful. The criminal minister has not killed anyone yet. Compared with Queen Hua, the criminal minister is much more noble!"
