Mind Reading: The villain wins after hearing the princess's inner voice

Censor Lin Shirong was also disgusted by Tao Zhihong's behavior.

He pointed at the man's nose angrily and yelled, "Tao Zhihong, you are despicable and shameless. You actually pushed this immoral thing onto your own brother. Are you still a human being?"

Tao Zhihong shook his head and denied it. "I don't admit to anything I didn't do. I hope that Censor Lin can provide more direct evidence to convince people."

Li Hugua hasn't even spoken clearly yet, but everyone is rushing to slander him. They are too impatient.

In the court, when the atmosphere was tense, a young eunuch guarding the palace gate quietly entered the hall and whispered a few words in Zhao Chong's ear.

Afterwards, Zhao Chong quietly told Emperor Jianchang.

The argument between the two sides was interrupted.

"Xuan Xiao Yuwei leads the Yong prince to meet him!"

After hearing the summons, Prince Xiao Lichen of Prince Yong came into the hall in a wheelchair with the help of a young eunuch.

He sat in a wheelchair, bowed, and said in a steady voice: "Your Majesty, I have something important to report."

When Emperor Jianchang saw Xiao Lichen, his originally depressed mood improved a little. He raised his hand slightly and said, "Sure!"

Xiao Lichen looked solemn and said, "The Xiaoyu Guards were on duty today and accidentally captured a man. After interrogation, it was found that this man was involved in framing General Tao for something that violated his personal ethics. I think the matter is serious, so I came to report it to Your Majesty to prevent the important ministers of the country from being forced to be tainted with a shameful stigma."

Upon hearing this, there was an uproar in the court.

They were talking about it, and from what Prince Yong said, Tao Zhihong's reputation was maliciously slandered.

Now, things are becoming more and more complicated.

The people present were not fools. What was there for them not to understand? How could the investigation by His Majesty's Xiaoyu Guards be false?

It seems that Tao Zhihong was inexplicably targeted by the censor this time, not because of an unexpected disaster, but because someone was deliberately targeting him behind the scenes.

Censor Lin Shirong looked very unhappy, and his stubborn mind could hardly react.

This time, in the impeachment of Tao Zhihong, he became a knife in the hands of people with ill intentions, stabbing the heart of a minister whom Your Majesty valued highly.

It's over, he acted impulsively this time.

Beads of sweat the size of beans flowed down his face, Lin Shirong knelt on the ground with a pale face, his heart trembling unsteadily.

The Minister of Rites Gao Huaizhen said to himself, "It's bad."

The plan he had set up was originally very sure to succeed, but he had the misfortune of running into Xiao Yuwei, and all his plans came to naught.

Also, he has cut off his tail and left no evidence.

"There is such a thing. Bring that person to the palace. I want to see who is framing Lord Tao."

Emperor Jianchang was completely furious.

After this incident, he no longer understood the other party's intentions and became a tyrant.

To plot against Tao Zhihong is to plot against him.

First, he cut off his left and right arms, and then he sowed discord between the king and his subjects.

Let them become suspicious of each other and create rifts between the ruler and his subjects.

If he removes Tao Zhihong's power over the 300,000 troops in the suburbs of Beijing, it will give the people behind the scenes an opportunity to take advantage of the situation and place their own people in the camp in the suburbs of Beijing.

What a great plan of killing three birds with one stone, the plan sounded very good, but in the end it was exposed.

He was caught by his Xiaoyu Guards.

He was anxious to interrogate the man captured by Xiao Yuwei.

Li Rui was dragged into the court covered in injuries.

Meet all the civil and military officials in the court.

He endured the pain all over his body and was so scared that he almost peed himself.

"Your Majesty, I, Li Rui, pay my respects to you."

Emperor Jianchang said coldly, "You were the one who colluded with others to frame Tao Zhihong for keeping a male lover?"

Li Rui changed his confession on the spot, and he quickly denied it, "I have never done this."

Xiao Lichen, who was sitting in a wheelchair, was not surprised that he would do this.

The interrogation was conducted in the prison wardens department, and all kinds of tricks were used on the people. Li Rui could not bear it, and he admitted his mistake before he was beaten a few times.

When they arrived at the Golden Palace, in front of everyone, they felt that they could no longer beat him at will, and no one could force him to speak.

Li Hugua, who was kneeling on the ground, mustered up his courage and quickly said what he had not had time to say.

"Your Majesty, I didn't explain it clearly just now. The Master Tao I met at Master Qingfeng's house that day was a huge man, not the General Tao in front of us!"

Oh my god, he was scared to death. He finally made himself clear.

Now no one will wrongly accuse General Tao anymore.

Li Hugua raised his sleeves and wiped the cold sweat off his face.

Emperor Jianchang did not blame Li Hugua for telling the truth lately.

"The Master Tao that Brother Hugua mentioned is exactly my second brother."

Everyone else believed what Tao Zhihong said this time.

"Invite Mr. Tao and Young Master Qingfeng over here, and ask them face to face, and everything will be clear."

Xiao Lichen didn't understand what was so obvious about the quarrel.

"You don't know, Prince Yong. Prince Qingfeng's men are missing. As for Mr. Tao, this is the first time we have heard of him."

The Minister of Rites Gao Huaizhen sighed innocently, as if he had just realized that something was wrong.

"The disappearance of a person is not a big deal for us Xiao Yuwei. Send someone to find Master Qingfeng and bring him here to explain the matter clearly. Also send someone to bring the Second Master of the Tao Family to the palace."

Xiao Lichen's light words had an incredibly shocking effect on Gao Huaizhen.

Emperor Jianchang, sitting on the dragon throne, immediately ordered Xiao Yuwei to find someone.

Tao Zhihong was impeached today, and it was not just because of his wrongdoing of keeping a male favorite.

So far, it seems that someone is suspected of maliciously slandering important officials of the court, and the truth must be uncovered.

He wanted to see which of his sons had done this.

Emperor Jianchang scanned the hall with sharp eyes, observing the changes in expression of each minister.

The court officials standing below were nervous and trying hard to calm their pounding hearts. This matter might seem insignificant, but if it was really investigated, it might have far-reaching implications.

If someone has done something out of line in secret, once His Majesty finds out and takes the opportunity to investigate, it will be a big trouble.

The deputy commander of Xiaoyuwei received the imperial edict from Emperor Jianchang and took immediate action.

The Royal Guards were not idle either.

Li Rui, who was lying on the floor, turned pale with fear.

Young Master Qingfeng has been taken care of by his master's men, and there is no evidence against him.

As for Tao Jingyu, that person is the kind of person who is afraid of death and loves life. Once he is brought here, he will be in trouble.

No, once Tao Jingyu comes, he will put all the blame on Tao Zhihong. Compared with himself, Tao Jingyu is more suspicious.

Li Rui made up his mind that as long as he insisted that Tao Jingyu was the mastermind behind the plot against his own elder brother, he would have a chance of survival.

Inside the Ministry of Rites, one of the six ministries of the Shangshu Province.

Tao Jingyu sat in his office room, chatting idly with a colleague.

He was not being honest while chatting, and tore into pieces what his neighbor had just written.

After meeting his superior, the man came back to get something and saw Tao Jingyu's table full of scraps of paper, so he went up to ask.

Tao Jingyu was in the middle of a bragging match with his colleagues when he was interrupted. He was very unhappy and said impatiently, "Look, it has become a pile of garbage. If you want it, take it."

The other party's position was the same as his, just a sixth-rank official with no family background.

He is not as good as him, because he has a brother who is a great general in the court to support him.

Perhaps after today, his status will be different.

That Li Rui had already started to take action against my eldest brother last night. We will hear good news after the morning court session.

When he gets promoted and leaves this small government office where there is no chance of promotion, he will definitely dismiss this annoying guy and send him back home.

The other party pointed at his nose and said angrily, "This is an official task assigned by the senior boss. I spent two days and two nights to write it, and you destroyed it so easily. I will report it to the senior boss."

Tao Jingyu stood up his fat body with disdain and punched the man in the eye. The man howled and fell to the ground.

The colleague who was sitting next to him and bragging to him was so scared that he was speechless.

"Who do you think you are? How dare you go and complain?" Tao Jingyu stepped on the man's chest, his eyes fierce and he wished he could kill him.

"I'm about to get promoted, and you come to pick on me. You deserve to be punished."

Tao Jingyu stepped on him hard, and the other person howled in pain.

This further stimulated Tao Jingyu's excitement.

He kicked the man in the stomach mercilessly.

There was a sound of footsteps, and a dozen imperial guards appeared and pulled Tao Jingyu away.

"Who among you three is Tao Jingyu?"

Tao Jingyu was still excited when he saw the Imperial Guards. He thought that Li Rui and the nobleman behind him had already accomplished the task.

These people came to invite him, they must be trying to promote him.

Tao Jingyu said to the Imperial Guards happily, "I am Tao Jingyu. Do you want to take me away and work in another place?"

The Royal Guards immediately made way for them, "Please come with us!"

When they came, His Majesty did not clearly point out that the man was guilty, so they did not want to take him away in a rough manner.

However, they will report to His Majesty the fact that this man beat his colleagues.

Seeing that His Majesty's guards were quite polite to Tao Jingyu, the colleague who was frightened came to his senses and happily complimented, "Brother, you are great. When you get promoted, remember to help me."

Tao Jingyu laughed and said, "Okay, just wait for good news from my brother!"

Led by the Imperial Guards, he swaggered out of the Ministry of Rites.

Looking at Tao Jingyu who was surrounded by glory and left, the colleague stood by the man who was beaten and said, "You are so tactless that you ran out to offend him. Now, when he gets promoted, you will be in even greater trouble..."

The man lying on the ground stared at his colleague unwillingly, his eyes full of indignation.

He will definitely take revenge for the humiliation he suffered today.

Tao Jingyu was brought to the main hall. His fat body trembled as he stepped over the threshold of the hall. His back foot was accidentally knocked down, and he fell to the ground in the hall with a loud bang.

The noise was very loud and the movements were ugly. Emperor Jianchang sat in a high place with a slightly dark complexion.

"Ah! It hurts so much."

It took Tao Jingyu a long time to recover. His stomach hit the ground and the pain was so severe that he almost thought he was going to die.

When he arrived at the palace gate, he realized that the people who came to see him were His Majesty's Royal Guards.

And he is about to meet His Majesty, haha, that will definitely be accomplished.

Your Majesty must have met him to get a promotion for yourself.

Unexpectedly, he was so excited that he didn't look at his feet. As a result, he fell to the ground and was crushed to death as soon as he entered the Golden Palace.
