"Shen Congxing, what else do you have to say?"

The Queen Mother spoke in a deep voice, wanting to nail this matter down.

After receiving Zhao Ceying's look, Uncle Shen Guo replied loudly: "The official family, the censor Zhongcheng slandered the minister, and found a few people from nowhere to frame the minister! Please clear the minister's name!"

He paused and said in a loud voice: "This unconscious person is not a talented person who made a deal with me at all!"

"nonsense!"

Censor Zhongcheng did not expect that Uncle Shen Guo would be so shameless and still want to quibble in front of everyone!

The villagers were asked to answer again and again, and the villagers all said that this man was indeed a man of wealth.

Uncle Shen Guo didn't want to talk nonsense with him at all, so he directly recruited real talents.

"In the official family, this is the most talented person, and I bought the fertile land from him. As for this thing that Mr. Zhongcheng brought, I have never seen it. I don't know where Mr. Zhongcheng found it. Is it true? It’s an eye-opener for me.”

Everyone was stunned.

Especially the courtiers of the Queen Mother's lineage all thought in their hearts: Censor Zhongcheng, it's over.

They had just noticed something was wrong.

Unexpectedly, Yushi Zhongcheng couldn't stop him and just jumped into the trap.

Yes, a trap.

Now everyone has reacted.

I just don’t know who the purpose of this trap is, but since it’s such a big circle, it’s definitely not Yu Shi Zhongcheng.

But they still forced the officials to punish...

It's too late to stop it now.

You can't just force the officials to review the case if it's not good for Uncle Shen Guo, and just treat it like nothing's wrong if it's bad for Yu Shi Zhongcheng, right?

No matter how thick-skinned they are, they can't do such a shameless thing, and besides, they don't always speak out in court.

What everyone wanted to understand, Yu Shi Zhongcheng also figured it out in an instant.

His face instantly turned pale, and his hands and feet were cold.

"You said you are talented, where is the evidence?"

Niu Youcai came well prepared and hurriedly handed over his household registration.

It was clearly written on it, Niu Youcai, and it was exactly the same as the information recorded in the booklet handed over by the junior official just now.

It can be seen that the person dealing with Shen Guojiu is indeed the talented person in front of him.

In order to clear Uncle Shen Guo's name, the officials also sent the evidence to the courtiers for review.

The censor Zhongcheng was like a defeated rooster, unable to say anything.

Or Uncle Shen couldn't help but ask the villagers: "You said this person is also called Niu Youcai? Which words are they?"

Most of these villagers are illiterate. Fortunately, the village chief also came with him and said tremblingly: "There are those who have nothing, and there is money."

It turns out that cows have wealth, not talent!

The censor Zhongcheng was so angry that he had a headache.

If I had asked a few more questions, I wouldn't be in this situation now!

"Since it's a misunderstanding, let's clear it up. General Weibei is also aggrieved. You should reward the official. As for Yushi Zhongcheng, he doesn't know people well. He will fine him half a year's salary and reduce..."

The Queen Mother took the opportunity to protect the censor Zhongcheng, but before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by the officials.

This was also the first time that the official interrupted the Queen Mother.

"The eldest lady just told me to distinguish right from wrong and be fair in dealing with things. Why have I forgotten now?"

Such obviously targeted words are no different from slapping the Queen Mother directly in the face.

The Queen Mother was choked and didn't want to give up.

"The Censor Zhongcheng is the Censor, and he has the responsibility to impeach officials. It's just that he failed to distinguish the truth from the false."

"Did you fail to distinguish right from wrong, or did you intentionally deceive the superiors and deceive me, frame the courtiers, and suppress your colleagues?"

The style of officials today is much stronger than in the past.

"I would never dare to do this!"

Censor Zhongcheng was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and did not dare to raise his head.

"The officials and Yushi Zhongcheng also have good intentions. If you rebuke him like this, wouldn't it chill his loyalty to the emperor?"

The Queen Mother was extremely angry.

"If I hadn't found out the truth and Shen Congxing was tattooed, dismissed from office and exiled, could this also be the loyalty of Yu Shi Zhongcheng? If the frame-up failed and he said it was an unintentional mistake and used loyalty to cover it up, then I am afraid that only those who suppressed and framed him would be left in the court! This is what chills the hearts of true loyalists!”

The official asked Han Qi unceremoniously what crime the censor Zhongcheng should be convicted of.

Han Qi could only answer truthfully.

Just when the officials were about to convict him, Gu Tingye suddenly pleaded: "Officials, in my opinion, Mr. Zhongcheng did not frame General Weibei, but someone else framed him. It's just that Mr. Zhongcheng was misled by someone with intentional intentions and failed to understand clearly. This is a big mistake. Mr. Zhongcheng just committed a dereliction of duty."

When the censor Zhongcheng heard that there was still a chance of improvement, he hurriedly cried and said: "Guan family, Wei Chen is really unjust! Wei Chen heard that the villager said that it was his uncle who was coercing him, so he mistakenly identified him as General Weibei..."

The official paused and asked the villagers in a deep voice.

The villagers said honestly: "It is true that a man who calls himself Guojiu broke Niu Youcai's leg."

Isn’t that right, Uncle Guo?

Everyone was shocked to discover that all these villagers were talking about Uncle Guo, not Uncle Shen!

Besides Cao Guojiu, who else can be called Guojiu?

Even the Queen Mother couldn't sit still: "What evidence is there?!"

Uncle Shen couldn't help but rolled his eyes: "The witnesses are here, what more evidence do you need?"

People in the Queen Mother's line spoke out one after another: "The two uncles Cao Guo have a harmonious temperament and will definitely not do this."

The courtiers who supported the official family said that Uncle Cao Guo was also an uncle, so why could Uncle Shen be tried but Uncle Cao could not be tried?

The two parties had a heated argument, but Zhao Ceying interrupted.

"Why go to all this trouble? Niu Youcai, who was forced to pawn off his fertile land, must have gone to the government to report it. Wouldn't it be enough to check who was in the book with Niu Youcai?"

A word to awaken the dreamer.

Everyone was busy checking the booklet, but after looking for a long time, they didn't see Niu Youcai.

The junior official was also at a loss: "It's not just the official who is in charge of the transaction, there are also several colleagues. I think they recorded it."

When the matter reached this point, it was related to Cao Guojiu's innocence, and the Queen Mother wanted to find out the truth more than anyone else.

So they immediately called in those officials.

After rummaging through several books, I finally found Niu Youcai's name.

And the person who did business with Niu Youcai was named Zhao Tairan.

Zhao Tairan?

Seeing this name, everyone in the Queen Mother's line widened their eyes.

This, this is Prince Yong!

Due to the mutual restraint between the official family and the Queen Mother, the official family has not been able to appoint Prince Yong to inherit the title.

So Zhao Tairan is still the crown prince.

He is the eldest son of King Yong and is deeply loved by King Yong.

He was also highly valued by the Queen Mother.

Wait, if you put it this way, could it be that Prince Yong and the Queen Mother jointly set up this trap?

Is the purpose to get Uncle Shen Guo down?

But the truth was discovered by Uncle Shen Guoshu and his party, and they took advantage of it?

It seems...that makes sense!

So, the truth is out.

It was the Prince of Yong who loaned money, forced Niu Youcai to sell his land, and deceived the other party into turning the loan sale into a permanent sale, at the expense of human life.

He also tried to blame Uncle Shen Guo.

This pile of crimes is numerous.

After seeing Zhao Tairan's name, the officials remained silent and asked Han Qi what he thought.

Han Qi said: How can we see it? See with your eyes!

Who would have thought that Prince Yong would dare to do such a destructive thing even after he has lost power!
