Chapter 458 The truth
Concubine Shu looked at the second prince indescribable words.
"Why?"
The second prince spread his hands, "It's obvious that he is the prince, and he must compete with me for the throne."
Concubine Shu looked at the second prince with her rarely shown kind-eyed expression, "Mother asked you, if Chen Li fights with you, can you fight?"
The second prince shook his head honestly, "I can't fight."
Concubine Shu patted him on his shoulder, "A good boy, it is important to be self-aware. You have done this."
Mother will tell you another thing, it’s important to get out of trouble.”
After saying that, Shufei raised her foot and walked towards the bedroom.
The second prince was stunned for a moment, turned around and chased after him, "Mother, what does it mean! Haven't we been fighting with the prince all these years?"
Concubine Shu walked and said, "I fight with the prince because I don't want the prince to ascend the throne, but it doesn't mean I want you to ascend the throne too!
I didn't have to choose before, but now..."
The second prince stopped unexpectedly.
Lick your mouth.
His eyes trembled and he stared at Concubine Shu blankly.
Concubine Shu felt a stinging pain in her heart when she saw her stupid son's reaction.
Although his son is stupid, he has been struggling to seize the throne for so many years, and he wants to ascend the throne from the bottom of his heart.
Now that he suddenly told him this, he would definitely not be able to bear it.
so......
"So, tomorrow, I can sleep until midnight and get up again. I don't have to study or discuss matters. I can go to Chenxin's shop to listen to the book for a whole morning?
Then you have lunch at Deyuelou at noon, and you don’t have to listen to the staff’s analysis in the afternoon. You can go to Xishan to run a horse and roast a rabbit to eat at night?
Mother, do you know that since I started fighting with the prince, I have nightmares almost every night.
I'm afraid of ascending the throne!
I don't want to live like my father!
Every day, he gets up before the chicken gets up, and the dog gets asleep, but he hasn't fallen asleep. He spends more than 300 days a year, almost every day, and he can't eat more than one bite if he wants to eat.
Life is short, and my son doesn't want to live a limited life so lifeless and devote himself to it.
The only thing my son wants to do in his life is to try to enjoy wealth and glory."
Concubine Shu...
I deserve to worry about you!
On this side, the emperor and the imperial guards interrogated Qinghong.
That room, the shadow.
Zhou Qing inferred that the empress dowager was afraid of Xu Feng because Xu Feng came out of the palace after seeing a scene that he shouldn't have seen. Chen Li immediately took Xu Feng to the Shadow and participated in the interrogation together.
Xu Feng's appearance was undoubtedly a heavy hammer for Huang Chen's mother. In addition, the failure to force the palace in the palace, the last trace of resistance on Huang Chen's mother was completely stripped of.
Under torture, he quickly admitted it, which was almost the same as what Shufei found.
Chen Li sat there with a gloomy face, half tilted his head to look at Huang Chen's mother who was hanging in the air by a rope.
"Why kill Marquis Rongyang?"
Huang Chen's mother was covered in blood and flesh, with her head hanging down, and she was as angry as if she was a wandering spring.
"Because he has a token that can command the three armies, and that token is for him, and the Queen Mother doesn't want to keep trouble."
Chen Li frowned.
There had been news from the palace that the emperor personally asked Zhou Huaishan that there was no such token at all.
Just as Shen Li frowned, the shadow responsible for the execution whip it blew on Huang Chen's mother. She was tortured and could not even scream loudly, and she only whimpered.
Chen Li said coldly: "I want to listen to the truth, you must know that the name that the shadows are terrifying is not a false name.
As long as your confession is inconsistent with Qinghong’s confession, I have ways to make you live worse than death.”
Huang Chen's mother trembled fiercely, "It's true, it's really because of that token."
"How did you know there is such a token?"
"The news that Qinghong got from Nanzhao Kingdom was that Nanzhao Kingdom had a detailed work here, Qinghong... Qinghong knew but didn't arrest them, it was because, for some reason, he knew Qinghong's secret.
There... I want to cooperate with Qinghong.
There is nothing to do with Qinghong.
It was news from Nanzhao, and it was impossible to be fake."
Nanzhao Kingdom knows that Qinghong is the secret of the fake empress dowager?
Chen Li and Gao Li looked at each other for a moment, and Gao Li said angrily: "If this is the case, then killing Rongyang Hou alone will make the token lose its value. Why do you still destroy his entire mansion!"
Huang Chen's mother said tragically: "It was not Qinghong who ordered the family to be destroyed."
Gao Li clenched his fist, "No? She asked Chen Qiang's mother to put medicine on the well water at home, but she didn't forget that you would come to the door and take the jade mine land deed in person!"
Huang Chen's mother hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, that's right, but we didn't do it that night."
"Who is it?"
"I don't know, I really don't know this."
Chen Li took up Gao Li's words, "How did you convince Duke Cheng to attack Rongyang Hou?"
“…We have his handle in our hands.
The one who was sentenced by the late emperor to commit corruption, the one who was sentenced to the late emperor was the Duke of Chengguo.
Before this, although Chen Li's face was gloomy and murderous aura was surging, he was always calm.
Hearing this sentence, his breath shook and rushed to Huang Chen's mother with almost a quick step, and clamped her jaw with his hands like an eagle claw.
"What did you say?"
Grit your teeth and beat them word by word.
Behind Chen Li, Xu Feng froze.
Xu Duke’s Mansion.
The whole family was killed.
Conspiracy to rebel.
Gao Lize was stunned for a moment, wrapped in anger, turned around and gust of wind to go out, and headed straight for the cell where Duke Cheng was imprisoned.
Huang Chen had a whip on his mother's face, and was pinched by Chen Li. He twitched all over his body in pain. Chen Li was like an evil ghost crawling out of hell, with murderous aura all over his body, which made people dare not look at him.
Huang Chen's mother trembled and said, "It was the late emperor who was secretly reported by Duke Cheng of the State, saying that Duke Xu's mansion was planning a rebellion."
"Where did he get the evidence?"
"No...I don't know, I don't know, I just know that he doesn't want people to know that the evidence was sent by him."
Of course he doesn't want people to know!
Once exposed, Zhou Huaishan’s short-term character can directly tear him up with his hands!
As Huang Chen's mother finished speaking, Xu Feng, who had been standing silent behind Shen Li, spoke with his mouth trembling.
"At that time, something happened to the Duke Xu's mansion, and the Zhou family army and the Nanzhao Kingdom were in a stalemate on the battlefield. After the accident, the late emperor immediately ordered the old Marquis of Rongyang who had led his troops to the expedition to return to the capital.
In that battle, the Zhou family army could have destroyed the Nanzhao Kingdom, but in the end they were defeated and then they were withdrawn.
As a result, after returning to the capital, the late emperor told the old Marquis of Rongyang that he had made a detailed work and the military situation was sold."
Chen Li was stunned and looked back at Xu Feng.
No wonder Xu Feng has been taking Su Heng to investigate the case of Rongyang Hou Mansion in recent years and has been working on the Duke Chengguo’s Mansion!
Therefore, the evidence handed over by Duke Chengguo is very likely sent by Nanzhao Kingdom?
It’s Nanzhao again?!
Huang Chen's mother played the role in the whole incident, just to replace Qinghong with the slander.
She was unaware of many things.
Even if I know, I only know one rough idea.
Gao Li quickly ended the interrogation about Duke Cheng.
He stuffed the confession into Chen Li's hand, and Gao Li scolded, "This old bastard wants to be careless with me! He doesn't even look at what this place is! He still expects to come in and go out again?
He was indeed the one who secretly reported to the late emperor back then. All the so-called evidences were given to him by Huang Qihuan!"
Chen Li looked down at the confession in his hand, heard Huang Qihuan's name, and looked up.
"The one who participated in the Queen Mother's slandering the pillar was Huang Qihuan, and the one who instigated Duke Cheng to report to Duke Xu's mansion was Huang Qihuan. Now the one who instigated the prince to rebel was Huang Qihuan. This Lord Huang is really amazing!"
Gao Li's voice was filled with gritting anger and sarcasm.
Everyone can hear that Huang Qihuan must have a direct connection with Nanzhao Kingdom.
"Have he woke up?" Chen Li asked, holding his confession.
At that time, Shunzi shot Huang Qihuan directly into a hedgehog, and Huang Qihuan was seriously injured and fell into a coma.
"You can wake him up even if you don't wake up!" Gao Li said angrily with a dark face.
After saying that, he turned to Huang Qihuan's cell.
