The system forced me to be emperor

"Very good, I'm not mistaken about you! Then write it truthfully." Xiao Rui said with a smile.

In order to survive, He Ying unceremoniously betrayed Zhenyuanhou and wrote down all the crimes he knew.

In the final analysis, Marquis Zhenyuan has five major crimes.

First, form cliques for private interests and form cliques.

Second, embezzling and perverting the law, withholding military pay.

Third, cronyism and embezzlement of ores in the trade between the two countries.

Fourth, stealing and refining weapons and armor, and hiding equipment issued by the Ministry of War.

As the number one adoptive son of Marquis Zhenyuan, He Ying is naturally well aware of Marquis Zhenyuan's crimes.

When Xiao Rui read the criminal evidence written by He Ying, his brows raised.

Xiao Rui knew about the first three crimes, but he didn't know about stealing weapons and armors and hiding equipment issued by the Ministry of War!

"The Marquis of Zhenyuan asked you to smelt the ore you secretly stole into steel, and then directly forge it into weapons without permission? And even hid the standard weapons issued by the Ministry of War?" Xiao Rui couldn't help asking.

He Ying hurriedly said: "Yes, at this point, the villain only wants to take the blame and make meritorious deeds, how dare he hide it!"

Xiao Rui nodded. If the above three crimes were found to be true, at most the Marquis of Zhenyuanhou would be cut off and demoted to a commoner. After all, based on his merits, His Majesty would still punish him lightly.

However, forging weapons privately and hiding the weapons and armor issued by the Ministry of War privately, this crime involves intentional rebellion. Once it involves rebellion, it is like intentional, and it is also a serious crime to punish the Jiuzu!Even if he is the Marquis of Zhenyuan, his merits cannot offset this crime!

Chapter 322: Guo Jia Tests the Marquis of Zhongyong

Looking at the evidence of Zhenyuanhou's crimes provided by He Ying, Xiao Rui felt more and more that Zhenyuanhou was a fake, a person wearing a human skin mask.

So he asked: "He Ying, I want to ask you, the former Marquis of Zhenyuan served his country bravely, was honest and upright, but in the past two years he has corrupted the law and even got involved in rebellion. Do you know the reason?"

He Ying wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, shook his head and said: "I don't know, but I'm also strange. In the past two years, the commander-in-chief and deputy commander-in-chief under Lord Hou's command have all been imprisoned for different crimes, and they are still in prison. Due to chance, he was promoted to the post of commander-in-chief by Hou Ye, and he worshiped Hou Ye as his righteous father."

Xiao Rui asked: "Haven't you ever doubted that the current Marquis of Zhenyuan is not the real Marquis of Zhenyuan? Why did he want to imprison all his former confidants? Maybe it was because he was afraid of being exposed."

He Ying moved his mouth, but shook his head, and said: "Your Highness's suspicion is justified, but the villain once soaked in the hot spring with Master Hou, and Master Hou is still Master Hou, so it can't be fake. So the villain no longer doubts Master Hou." It's a lie, I just think that if Master Hou has changed, everyone will change."

"Oh?" Xiao Rui was taken aback, he didn't expect such a thing to happen, if what He Ying said was true, if Zhenyuanhou was false, he would be exposed if he took a bath in the hot springs naked.The current camouflage technique can imitate a person to the best of its ability, but it is a camouflage after all. No matter how good a human skin mask is soaked in a hot spring, it will reveal its true identity.

In order to survive, He Ying had become a traitor to expose Marquis Zhenyuan's crimes. He was eager to produce more evidence to mitigate his crimes, so he would not lie about this matter.

Since Zhenyuanhou is not a person pretending to be, could it be that he has really changed into a different person?

Xiao Rui asked: "You are Han Ming's number one adoptive son, you should be able to see him usually!"

He Ying nodded, and said: "Yes! Lord Hou seldom cares about military affairs now, unless the former military governor's mansion and the Ministry of War in the imperial court send someone, he will personally meet him, and stay in the military mansion at other times. The villain now Tim is the commander-in-chief, managing military affairs, and when encountering major issues, the villain will often go to see Lord Hou for instructions."

"Then the king of Japan needs you to meet Lord Hou tomorrow, and by the way, bring two people to pretend to be followers, so that he can have a chance to say a few words to Hou Zhenyuan to test it out. Maybe you can do it?" Xiao Rui asked.

He Ying nodded again and again, and said: "No problem, leave this matter to the villain!"

Xiao Rui's tone immediately turned cold, and he said: "Master He, let's not say whether Zhenyuan Hou will be okay for now, there is no suspense at all for this king to sentence you to Ling Chi and execute him to punish the nine clans. The gold medal in person, killing you is like crushing an ant. Therefore, I will give you a chance to live, and it depends on your performance. This king came to find you, and since I have inquired about your character, I know that Mr. He is not like you. A hero who is willing to kill the nine clans for the righteous father!"

He Ying nodded again and again, respectful like a dog, and said: "The villain understands, the villain has always understood his own ability, the Hou Ye accepted the villain as his adopted son, and was even promoted to the chief soldier, because the villain was obedient and treated the villain as a A dog that points and bites, the villain is a dog, and the villain is even more willing to be a dog beside His Highness, as long as he can live, he can do whatever His Highness asks the villain to do!"

Xiao Rui laughed, and gave him another sweet date: "Very well, I never judge people by their appearance. A dog like you is more convenient to use. If you do things beautifully, I can promise you that you will not only It will be fine, and I can still work with this king in the future."

He Ying was overjoyed, and immediately shouted: "Don't worry, Your Highness, the villain is determined to fight against evil to the end! There is no equal to the evil!"

Xiao Rui got up, ready to leave the He residence, and said: "Yuan Fang, you stay, and protect the safety of Mr. He!"

"Yes!" Li Yuanfang naturally understood Xiao Rui's meaning. The protection was fake, but the surveillance was real. Although this guy could not report the news, there is nothing absolute in this world. What if He Ying is not afraid in order to repay the kindness of Marquis Zhenyuan? What about death?

He Ying looked respectful and didn't care about sending someone to monitor him.

Xiao Rui took Dian Wei back to the inn, handed over the incriminating evidence written by He Ying to Guo Jia, and at the same time told Guo Jia about the conversation with He Ying in detail.

After hearing this, Guo Jia was also surprised and said, "Could it be that Marquis Zhenyuan has really turned black?"

A person has to go through certain things before he can change from being loyal to being evil, from being kind to being evil, that is, blackening. Xiao Rui read a history in his previous life. Liu Yu, the No. 11 son of Emperor Wen of the Song Dynasty Liu Yilong in the Southern and Northern Dynasties, had a generous and peaceful temperament since he was a child. , is commendable, and can maintain the true character of neither arrogance nor impetuosity, and treats people with sincerity and enthusiasm.But later, his nephew Liu Ziye succeeded to the throne, and Liu Ziye had a cruel temperament. He not only killed ministers in vain, but also became suspicious of several of his uncles. He simply imprisoned them all in the palace, beat them at will, and abused them extremely.Liu Yu was named "Pig King" and was humiliated miserably. This dark history made Liu Yu black. When Liu Ziye was killed in a coup and Liu Yu proclaimed himself emperor, he became erratic and even more cruel than Liu Ziye Not only did he kill his elder brother who had saved him from the same adversity, but he was also cruel and bloody to those who disobeyed him.

Therefore, if a person experiences a tragic upheaval, it is possible to become black.

But what tragic upheaval will Zhenyuan Hou experience?Never heard of it.

Xiao Rui couldn't figure out why, so he said: "Tomorrow you and He Ying go to see Zhenyuanhou, test it out, and see what happened to Zhenyuanhou! Is he real or not, is his personality changed completely, or is he with Jin Yuner? Same, with other personalities!"

Guo Jia said: "Don't worry, Your Highness, leave this matter to me to handle!"

......

Minzhong Mansion, the governor's mansion.

Since Xiao Yuan came back from Mindong Mansion, he canceled the concubine plan. At the same time, his face was full of smiles, and his life seemed to be radiant.

Seeing the changes in her husband, the princess was very happy from the bottom of her heart, and couldn't help asking: "My lord, who did you meet when you went to Mindong Mansion? So happy!"

Xiao Yuan enjoyed the concubine's shoulder rubbing, and said with a smile: "It's okay to tell you, anyway, the father left too."

"What? Your Majesty is coming?" The concubine was shocked, and the movements of her hands stopped immediately.

Xiao Yuan nodded, and said: "Don't tell the public about this matter. Father, he secretly came down to Fuzhou to visit me without telling the civil and military officials of the court. I am naturally happy that Father loves me so much! Looking at other princes, only Xiao Rui's treatment is better than mine."

After the princess was surprised, a strange color flashed in her pupils, and after she flapped her eyelids, she asked casually: "Isn't King Xian the inspector and censor to inspect the state capital? How can the treatment be good? Could it be that His Highness King Xian came to Fuzhou with His Majesty? "

Xiao Yuan laughed, held Wang Hao's jade hand, and said: "You, you are always smart, you guessed it right away."

The concubine smiled softly, and said: "It's not because the prince taught well. So, His Royal Highness Xian also left Fuzhou?"

Xiao Yuan shook his head and said, "He's gone to Licheng Mansion!"

"Licheng Mansion..." The princess read aloud, and asked, "Could it be that there is something important to do? As the elder brother, the prince will not invite him to live in Minzhong Mansion!"

"I've lived here for two days, I just kept it from everyone, you just haven't seen him, okay, let's not talk about him." Xiao Yuan laughed.

The concubine thought it was interesting and didn't ask any more questions. She thought about it, a few days ago, an outsider did come to the palace and was treated well by her husband. At that time, she didn't think much about it. Only now did she realize that it was King Xian!

Licheng Mansion...

She secretly kept it in her heart, and after waiting for Xiao Yuan to fall asleep, she hurriedly called a confidant and whispered a few words into his ear.

......

In the early morning of the second day, Dian Wei escorted Guo Jia to He Ying's mansion, and then He Ying took Guo Jia and Li Yuanfang to Junhou's mansion.

Because He Ying is the adopted son of Marquis Zhenyuan and a frequent visitor, he entered the Junhou's mansion smoothly, and then the guards went in to report, and the three of them waited in the living room.After waiting for a while, Zhenyuan Hou came.
