Chapter 183: Deposed Crown Prince

Li Jincheng didn't seem to believe it. He looked at her carefully and was about to speak when the palace door opened.

Xu Yishan came out and said, "His Royal Highness, Your Majesty will allow you to enter the palace."

"Okay, here you go." Li Jincheng tidied his clothes, made sure he was fine, and entered the palace nervously.

As soon as he entered the door, a glass lamp flew over, but due to lack of strength, it flew into the air and fell to the ground.

"Ni, son!" Tongxu's eyes were as angry as fire.

"Father, please calm down." Li Jincheng's legs softened and he knelt on the ground, "Father, please take care of your dragon body."

Emperor Tongxu gasped violently, humming like a broken bellows, "You, you wish that I would die soon, so that the Great Zhou Dynasty could fall into your hands and let you do whatever you want!"

Li Jincheng was stunned, "Father, I don't know why my father is so angry. If I do something bad, my father can scold me, but don't hurt the dragon's body."

Emperor Tongxu's old eyes were full of anger, "Do you think I am really hopelessly stupid?"

Li Jincheng said: "My son does not understand what my father means, so I would like to ask my father to make it clear."

"How did you get your palace and the concubines in your palace?" Emperor Tongxu asked.

Li Jincheng's face suddenly turned pale, "My son, my son..."

Emperor Tongxu asked: "Li Jincheng, do you know what it means when I give you the word Jincheng?"

Li Jincheng kowtowed deeply, "I know that my father has high hopes for me.

"You are greedy for pleasure, addicted to beauty, and form cliques for selfish interests. One after another, your virtue is not worthy of you. If I hand over the kingdom of Zhou Dynasty to you, then I will be ashamed of my ancestors."

Emperor Tongxu picked up an object and threw it at him. Li Jincheng did not dare to hide.

The inkstone hit him hard on the head, and he gritted his teeth to bear it, and soon a stream of blood flowed from his forehead.

"Father," Li Jincheng cried, "I know I was wrong."

Emperor Tongxu was furious, "Ge Liangji pointed out that you had misappropriated funds for building river embankments before his death. I held it back because I thought you were not rotten to the core. I didn't expect you..."

Emperor Tongxu was so angry that he couldn't speak. After a moment of relief, he said, "I didn't expect you to collude with Marquis Xuanping and empty out the southwest granary."

Li Jincheng suddenly raised his head and said, "Father, I have been wronged. I have never touched the Southwest Granary."

Emperor Tongxu sneered, "During the Yanliangguan war, you were worried that your traces would be exposed, so you decided to focus on military rations. Should I be happy? My good sons, Liang Jianfang and Ge Liangji are all your scapegoats. !”

"Father." Li Jincheng walked over and hugged Emperor Tongxu's leg, "There must be something hidden in this case. I have never done anything like this."

With a crash, Emperor Tongxu threw away the things on the table.

"Don't tell me that all this was done by him, Marquis Xuan Ping."

"My son, I did take money from the Ministry of Household Affairs." Li Jincheng said sadly: "My son, I have never heard of stealing grain and transporting food. Please believe me, Father."

Emperor Tongxu kicked Li Jincheng in the chest. He was so weak that he couldn't lift up, but he still kicked the prince to the ground.

With a "swish", Emperor Tongxu grabbed the confession on the table and threw it in Li Jincheng's face.

"Please give me a closer look!"

Li Jincheng panicked and grabbed the thin pieces of paper and scanned them quickly. The further he looked back, the paler his face became.

The blood flowing from his forehead had solidified on his face, making him look even more terrifying.

"No, this isn't right." Li Jinchen quickly flipped through the confession, "This is a frame-up! It's a frame-up!"

He looked at Emperor Tongxu and said, "Father, someone wants my son to die."

"It's not that someone wants you to die." Emperor Tongxu said sternly: "It's you who wants the Great Zhou Dynasty to perish! Marquis Xuanping is your uncle. In order for you to secure your position as crown prince, you have no idea how much force he has used behind your back to secure your position as crown prince." Don’t I know?”

"He, Marquis Xuanping, suffered in prison for a month without speaking, just to protect you. If it weren't for Pei Chunli's persuasion, I would have been kept in the dark by you."

Li Jincheng couldn't accept this fact at all. He said with tears in his eyes: "I recognize what I have done. I will not recognize what I have not done even if I die."

"Then you will die to prove your ambition!" Emperor Tongxu was so angry that he couldn't hold back his words.

His voice seemed to have aged a few years, "I am ashamed of my ancestors and of Great Zhou. Great Zhou cannot be left in the hands of people like you."

"Father!" Li Jincheng was shocked. "My father, please give me a chance. I really have never done this before."

"Opportunity." Emperor Tongxu said: "If I give you a chance, where will the opportunity come from in the Great Zhou Dynasty, and where will the opportunity come from for millions of refugees?"

"It's written in black and white, and there's no room for your quibbles." Emperor Tongxu said, "Here comes someone!"

Shen Yu walked into the palace and said, "I'm here."

"Immediately take Li Jincheng to the clan's residence. He is not allowed to enter or leave without authorization. He will be judged after the case is concluded."

"yes."

"Come here and prepare an edict."

Emperor Tongxu coughed violently, and there was a trace of blood on his handkerchief.

He threw it aside and said with a deep breath: "We are going to abolish the prince's edict."

"I inherit the great legacy of my ancestors and strive to maintain order and order in the world. The prince inherits the lawless virtues of his ancestors and does not follow my instructions. He specializes in authority and gathers party members to do whatever he wants...but does whatever he wants..."

"puff--"

A mouthful of blood spurted out from Emperor Tongxu's mouth and splashed on the edict.

It was daybreak, but there were still dark clouds, like a lingering haze, shrouding this prosperous capital city.

The Jiaofangsi opened the door and saw the person knocking on the door in a python robe. He hurriedly said respectfully: "Oh, it's you, sir. Why did you come so early today? It's still early. Let's go inside-"

"I'm looking for someone." Shen Yu interrupted him.

"Are you still looking for Fu Yao? She..."

Shen Yu pushed the person aside with her scabbard and walked straight into the Jiaofangsi.

In the month since Xuanping Hou was arrested, she had come to the Jiaofangsi to look for Fu Yao several times.

Xie Tingzhou was right. Fu Yao seemed unreliable, but Ge Liangji did not choose the wrong person. She threatened and lured him several times, but she couldn't get the account book out.

Now the overall situation has been decided, the prince can no longer turn over, those people will get the punishment they deserve, and the 100,000 soldiers should be able to rest in peace.

The account book is just icing on the cake. She wants to clear the fog and let all the secrets see the light of day again.

Fuyao served tea and knelt beside him, "Your Excellency has come six or seven times."

Shen Yu picked up the teacup, "I hope this is the last time."

"Your Excellency saved me that night, Fuyao is very grateful." Fuyao smiled, "But the lives of several people in the Ge family are tied to the account book, I can't take the risk."

Shen Yu stared at her closely, "The emperor has ordered the prince to be imprisoned. Now the threat to you has been resolved, and the account book has no effect on you."

Fuyao seemed to be stunned for a moment.
