From eunuch to emperor

"For such a serious crime as collaborating with the enemy, you actually executed it privately and did not report it to the Holy One. It is too strange and not enough to convince the public."

Hu Chengfu, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, shook his head again and again, and Bai Qiulian also agreed.

Bai Anning, the censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, also said: "Princess, Lord Long, this matter has too much to do with it. It really needs all the witnesses and material evidence."

Jing Heng also said: "Yes, you show witnesses, and you let Shuihan speak for himself."

Jing Tianlie turned his head and glared at Jing Heng, who was so frightened that he lowered his head and dared not speak.

Upstairs in Banyue, Ji Ba listened to the quarrel between the two sides, Hong Qi said: "President, Long Chengen killed Shuihan, this is the biggest failure."

Ji Ba shook his head and said: "One moment, another moment, at that time, in order to stabilize Linjiang City, it had to be like this."

"The empress probably didn't intend to cut Jing Tianlie's military power before, so there are no witnesses left."

"Also, even if Shui Han is kept, will she identify Jing Tianlie?"

He is willing to do such things as connecting with the enemy and treason, and Shui Han is definitely Jing Tianlie's confidant.

Even if such a person is caught, he will definitely not confess to Jing Tianlie.

"So, Long Chengen has no chance of winning this time?"

Hong Qi was a little disappointed.

Ji Ba laughed and said: "Long Chengen has already won, and the prestige of the General's Mansion has been shaken."

Hong Qi asked: "Did Long Chengen plan to bring down Jing Tianlie at once?"

Ji Ba shook his head slightly, and said, "Should there be a replacement for this Sifang Building? If you are asked to do business with Long Chengen, one day you will be sold, and you will count the money for him."

This is already the second time, and Hong Qi doesn't want to talk anymore.

Di Luoxi said angrily: "There is no witness, Shui Han is dead, the person who sent the letter is dead, Shangguan Wei is also dead, they are all dead, there is no witness!"

Bai Qiulian sneered and said, "It's because everyone is dead that some people wantonly spread rumors, slander and frame them."

The Empress looked at Long Chen and asked, "Is there only one secret letter?"

Long Chen really only has this thing, his goal has actually been achieved, and everyone's doubts about Jing Tianlie have been planted.

As for whether he can stab again severely, it is up to Feng He.

If this guy really wants to cooperate, now is the time to act.

The officials present and the onlookers discussed a lot, basically divided into two factions, one side believed that Long Chen had no real evidence, and the other side believed that this evidence was sufficient.

But no matter how you think about it, you feel that there is a problem with the General's Mansion.

"There are witnesses!"

Just when everyone was arguing, Qingyue walked in with a woman.

Long Chen was shocked when he saw this woman.

Medium build, high hairline, rosacea, this woman is Shui Han's confidant Shen Hong?

Isn't she dead?

Does Zhang Ke also have a problem?

Back in Linjiang City, Long Chen asked Zhang Ke to find someone, but Zhang Ke said that Shen Hong was dead.

Now Shen Hong appeared here again, what's going on?

"She is Shui Han's follower, Shen Hong, and she sent Shangguan Wei the defense plan at that time."

Qingyue pulled Shen Hong to the center.

Shen Hong glanced timidly at Jing Tianlie, and then bowed to the Empress, "Sinner Shen Hong, pay homage to the Holy Majesty."

The moment he saw Shen Hong, Jing Heng was completely panicked, and Jing Tianlie was also panicked.

Zhang Qian and Xuan Yi immediately came up to protect Shen Hong with Qingyue, they were worried that Jing Tianlie would kill someone to silence her.

The empress asked: "Shen Hong, what's going on, please tell the truth."

Shen Hong bowed and said: "Return to the Holy Lord, the guilty minister was in Linjiang City that day, defending with General Shuihan."

"The day before the princess arrived, General Shui Han received a letter from the General, asking General Shui Han to disclose the defense plan to Shangguan Wei, and to find an opportunity to kill Lord Long."

"General Shuihan followed the general's orders and sent the guilty officials to send out the defense plan."

Jing Tianlie was furious, and shouted: "It's nonsense, the general has never given Shuihan a secret letter!"

The Empress shouted coldly: "General, let her finish!"

Jing Tianlie was so angry that his eyes were like copper bells, wishing he could eat Shen Hong raw.

"Keep talking, who did you give and how!"

the Empress asked.

All the officials and people raised their ears to listen.

Shen Hong said: "The guilty minister gave it to the spies of the Tianwei Legion, and the meeting point is the wine shop at the east gate."

The Empress asked again: "How did you know the spies of the Tianwei Legion?"

Shen Hong replied: "We know that the hidden stakes arranged by Shangguanwei in the city are usually just for surveillance. At this time, in order to send out the defense plan, the criminal officials went to him."

The Empress asked again: "This matter is no small matter, what evidence do you have to prove it?"

Shen Hong looked at Jing Tianlie in fear, then took out half of the jade tiger from her sleeve, and said: "This is the token agreed between the general and General Shui Han, and it is sent together with the secret letter."

The moment he saw Yuhu, Jing Tianlie shouted, "This is not mine!"

Emperor Luoxi stepped forward to snatch the jade tiger and sent it to the empress.

The empress held the jade tiger, played with it carefully, and said coldly: "I mobilized the troops and horses, and used the tiger talisman. This jade tiger is similar to my tiger talisman. Does the general also want to be the emperor?"

hiss...

Everyone present was shocked.

This is too serious to say, and I almost asked Jing Tianlie if he wanted to rebel?

The tiger talisman is a token for the court to mobilize troops and horses, and Jing Tianlie's private production of jade tigers is evidence of treason.

Jing Tianlie knelt down in front of the empress, prostrated himself on the ground, and worshiped: "The sage has learned from you, Shen Hong is talking nonsense, this is not something of a humble minister!"

The empress said coldly: "The secret letter has your chapter, you say it's fake; Shen Hong took out the jade tiger, you also say it's fake."

"I ask you, what is true? Whose secret letter and jade tiger belong to?"

The general bowed his head and ears to the empress, which made the ministers who were attached to Jing Tianlie feel like they had fallen into an ice hole.

They thought that Jing Tianlie was so powerful that he could check and balance the empress, but now they found that this was not the case at all.

Jing Tianlie thought for a long time, and said: "This must be the work of Nizi Jingheng!"

The empress nodded slightly: "Well, I think so too, the general is loyal to the country, how could he collude with the enemy and plot rebellion."

"It must be that Jing Heng hated Long Cheng'en for taking away his Minister of the Household Department, so he was so ignorant of the general situation that he colluded with the enemy and treasoned the country, resulting in the death of four thousand soldiers in my university!"

"Jing Tianlie, you are a general, tell me how to deal with it!"

The empress spoke very lightly, but every word pierced into Jing Tianlie's heart like a dagger.

The officials present were silent, but the people watching had already shouted "kill without pardon", "pay for life", and "judgment".

Forty thousand soldiers were killed, including their brothers, sisters and sons.

The empress was questioning, all the officials were watching, and the common people were cursing.

Jing Tianlie was cornered, he had to give an explanation.

"Jing Heng's collusion with the enemy and treason deserves death!"

Although Jing Tianlie felt that this son was useless, his heart was bleeding when he said that he deserved to die.

After all, it is his own flesh and blood, so it is ruined like this!

The empress nodded slightly, and said: "Jing Heng ordered Shui Han to collude with the enemy and treason, it has nothing to do with the general, Jing Heng will be decisive!"

Jing Heng sat on the chair, feeling stupid.

Didn't you come to interrogate Long Chen today?Didn't they come to force Long Chen to death?Why was he the one who died in the end?

"Dad, dad, it's not me, I...I just...I'm not...help me!"

Jing Heng stood up and wanted to run, but was captured on the spot by the imperial army.

The empress looked at Hu Chengfu, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment: "Hu Shangshu?"

Hu Chengfu stood blankly, which meant that he was to execute the sentence, but the execution of Jing Heng meant that he would completely break up with Jing Tianlie?

"My lord, this..."

Hu Chengfu wanted to refuse, but the Empress' eyes were extremely cold.

Whether to offend the Empress or Jing Tianlie, he can only choose one of the two!
