The system forced me to be emperor

Wu Zhanfa glared, showing the threat: "Master Zhifu, if you do your best, the lord behind me will remember your kindness! When you achieve great things, it is also the day when you make a fortune. Follow Li Tang, you will always be a Dog, do you understand?"

The magistrate of Yangzhou suddenly realized that if he framed the eldest prince, King Jin, he must also be the prince, so who did the man in black represent?

In the current court situation, who is the most fiercely competitive with the eldest prince Xiao Lie?

The identity is about to come out!

"Hero, you are the second..." the prefect of Yangzhou was about to speak.

"Shut up!" Wu Zhanfa glared and scolded, "Don't ask if you shouldn't ask, just remember this!"

The magistrate of Yangzhou hurriedly nodded earnestly, and said: "Remember, remember, knights don't worry."

Wu Zhanfa said: "Master Zhifu, seize this opportunity well, whether you can get the chance to become a great success depends on you."

After speaking, Wu Zhanfa took advantage of the night to leave.

The magistrate of Yangzhou held the evidence that he was corrupt and broke the law, and his expression changed from cloudy to cloudy.

Wu Zhanfa returned to the inn and reported the situation to Xiao Rui.

"Your Highness, I don't understand something. Why did you let me pretend to be the king of Chu and frame the eldest prince instead?" Wu Zhanfa asked the doubts in his heart.

Xiao Rui smiled and said: "The magistrate of Yangzhou is insidious, and his relationship with Li Tang is complicated. Based on his criminal evidence alone, can he be blackmailed? Let him slander the eldest prince? Otherwise."

"Besides, he is Li Tang's confidant. We have the criminal evidence of his corruption and breaking the law. Even if he is stabbed in Dali Temple, we will be dismissed and investigated. However, Li Tang must have more criminal evidence of him, and the weight is huge, which will make him There is no place to die, otherwise how would Li Tang regard him as his confidant?"

"So I guess, the magistrate of Yangzhou didn't dare to betray Li Tang, so he didn't dare to slander the First Prince. He was afraid of losing Li Tang's trust, so he would choose to tell the truth, and he would definitely tell you exactly what he talked to you tonight. Li Tang, let me shirk my responsibility by the way!"

"Unless he is really stupid, he will betray Li Tang and King Jing just because of your words, and make him befriend the illusory second prince!"

Wu Zhanfa suddenly realized, and said, "So that's how it is!"

Xiao Rui said with a smile: "When the magistrate of Yangzhou told Li Tang the truth, Li Tang would doubt the second prince, the King of Chu, but also doubt whether it was a conspiracy. At this time, Zhuge Yuanba's chess game will be ready."

Just as Xiao Rui had guessed, the prefect of Yangzhou went to find Li Tang early the next morning.

After a day of easing, Li Tang's sad mood improved a lot. Next, he wants to take revenge, for his son who died tragically.

The first among them is that he wants to hold the prefect of Yangzhou accountable. After all, the murderer is holding the token of the magistrate of Yangzhou. The prefect!

Facing Li Tang's accountability, the prefect of Yangzhou has already found an excuse, claiming that his token was stolen and stolen, and that he was threatened by a mysterious man in black last night to make him wrong the eldest prince Xiao Lie and send The token was returned to him, and Li Tang was told exactly.

The magistrate of Yangzhou was very smart. He didn't say that he took out the token to save his life, but blamed it on the man in black, so that his responsibility would not be implicated. Correspondingly, Li Yuanfang was also regarded as air.

Li Tang's expression was gloomy after listening to the magistrate of Yangzhou, and he said, "You have to understand that the crime you committed is enough to punish the nine clans!"

The magistrate of Yangzhou heard Li Tang's warning, and said more respectfully: "This subordinate understands that this subordinate is a grown-up man, so he dare not lie, but every sentence is true! Last night, the man in black thought that he had brought out the officials who were corrupt and broke the law. The evidence, can let the lower officials deceive the adults? What a joke! The lower officials must tell the truth, dare not deceive the adults."

Li Tang nodded, the crime of dismissal and investigation is much less serious than that of Zhu Jiu Clan. The person in front of him has been with him for many years, so he is naturally trustworthy, so is it really the killer sent by the second prince Xiao Yiheng?

As soon as this idea came out, Li Tang couldn't help thinking about the past. Xiao Yiheng had long coveted the position of governor of Yangzhou. The rich people here, if they can put their own people here, they can provide him with generous financial support every year!

However, is it possible that someone deliberately acted for himself?A trap?

Just when Li Tang couldn't believe it, when the afternoon was approaching evening, Shi Xianxin, a thousand households of Jiangdu Wei, paid a surprise visit.

"Shi Qianhu, why are you here? But did you catch the murderer?" Li Tang asked hastily.

Shi Xianxin looked at Li Tang, remembering the arrangement of the Commander, he sighed in his heart, he could only feel sorry for Li Tang, so he shook his head and said: "The elites I sent chased for dozens of miles, and they can surround you immediately. Blocked him, but unexpectedly, he was rescued by two masters who appeared suddenly. The two masters who appeared were extremely skilled in martial arts. The people I sent were not opponents at all, and were accidentally injured by the opponent's hidden weapons. Brother Li, I'm sorry."

Li Tang clenched his fists and sighed.

"Do you know the origin of the other party?" Li Tang asked.

Shi Xianxin took out a hidden weapon from his bosom, which was a willow-leaf flying knife, with the character "Willow" in official script engraved on the back of the knife.

"This is a hidden weapon shot by the other party. I took it from the wounded person's body. For the rest, I can't do anything. Let me go!" Shi Xianxin did not dare to say more, and left with fists in his arms.

Li Tang took the hidden weapon and immediately called for the fifth-rank expert in the mansion.

After looking at it, the person replied: "My lord, this is the throwing knife of Liu Feixue, a fifth-rank master! As far as I know, Liu Feixue is a disciple of the Zhou family in the capital. This person has always been proud of himself, and the hidden weapons he set up are all his own." It was built, and I even carved my surname, I was lucky enough to see it once, and it is exactly the same as this one!"

"Okay, I see." Li Tang's face was gloomy, and he waved him down.

Li Tang was the only one left in the room, he finally couldn't restrain the anger in his heart, smashed the teacup beside him, and let out a stern roar.

Chapter 185: This is the first time this son-in-law has lied!

Xiao Rui stayed in Yangzhou City for six days before leaving here.

Li Jianwen was dead, Li Tang couldn't catch the murderer, and the hatred was transferred to Chu Wang Xiao Yiheng. Naturally, he couldn't continue to block the city gates.

The time has passed Laba, and I believe that the champion Hou has also returned to Beijing, so Xiao Rui's heart was very turbulent on the way back to Beijing, and he didn't know what ups and downs he would face ahead.

It's easy to marry long legs.

Without a word all the way, he returned to the capital.

First of all, Xiao Rui entered the palace to pay his respects. After going out for seven days, he promised Emperor Xia that he would come back within five days. He didn't have time to delay for two more days, and he didn't know how his father would reprimand him.

When I came to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to seek an audience, after the eunuch informed me, I came out and said respectfully: "Your Highness, Your Majesty asked you to move to the hall and wait for a while."

"Okay!" Xiao Rui nodded. It seemed that Emperor Xia had important matters to deal with and he couldn't disturb him, so he moved to the side hall, but he didn't expect that Yan Xiaoxiao was also in the side hall.

Yan Xiaoxiao didn't expect Xiao Rui to return to Beijing, and immediately asked pleasantly: "Your Highness, are you back?"

Xiao Rui applied to Emperor Xia to leave the capital. Apart from the people around him, Xia Huang, Hai Dafu and Yan Xiaoxiao knew about it.Ever since Yan Xiaoxiao served as a writer and selection servant in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, she has grown rapidly during this period of time, her mental quality has improved, her demeanor has even become calm, and she has a maturity that does not belong to her age.

"Just after I came back, I rushed into the palace. By the way, who did my father summon?" Xiao Rui asked.

Yan Xiaoxiao looked around, but there was no one else in the hall, so she didn't hide anything, and said: "I summoned a few cabinet scholars to discuss the matter of the imperial examination in the spring of next year. Your majesty wants to finalize the chief examiner of the imperial examination! And your majesty proposed that among the eight Choose one of the princes to serve as the accompanying prison to show the importance we attach to this civil and military examination."

Xiao Rui nodded, this errand of accompanying the prison is very sweet, I believe that the princes will try their best to fight for it, so should I fight for it?

Yan Xiaoxiao saw him lost in thought, and asked, "Your Highness also wants to serve as an accompanying prison?"

Xiao Rui came back to his senses and said with a smile: "Who will be the prisoner depends on His Majesty's wishes. Although I also want to get this job, after thinking about it, I feel that this job is easy to be attacked. I am weak, so I should not go against the wind and waves. "

Feeling Xiao Rui's gaze, Yan Xiaoxiao felt a little shy in her heart, then lowered her eyebrows and said softly, "I believe His Highness is the best!"

Xiao Rui smiled heartily: "Haha...I would like to borrow your good words."

At this moment, Emperor Xia walked in.

"It seems that some people have a lot of fun when they go out, and their laughter is so pleasant." Emperor Xia joked.

Xiao Rui hurriedly turned around and respectfully said: "My son Xiao Rui pays homage to Father Emperor."
