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

Tao Yuwei was about to speak when she was stopped by a warning look from Xiao Lichen.

Forget it, let the big villain come!

Tao Yuwei simply left the matter to the other party.

"Your Majesty, Tian Linwen instructed a group of servants to deliberately fabricate lies and spread the rumor that Princess Anle and he were already married, in order to achieve his ulterior motives. At the beginning, those who followed their master's orders to run to the gate of the General's Mansion to cause trouble and maliciously ruin Princess Anle's reputation have confessed in prison. These are their testimonies. Please review them, Your Majesty!"

At this time, the deputy commander of the Xiaoyu Guard who was standing behind Xiao Lichen stepped forward, took out a confession from his clothes, and presented it forward!

The chief eunuch hurried down the stairs, took the testimony and presented it to Emperor Jianchang.

Tian Linwen, who was lying on the ground and being stepped on by Tao Yuwei, was extremely panicked at this moment.

How could this happen? Weren't those people dealt with by the Eighth Prince's men?

It must be someone from Xiao Yuwei who hired someone to give false testimony. They were determined to kill him.

"Your Majesty, that confession must be false. I am innocent. It must be Princess Anle and Prince Xiao who are framing me. Your Majesty, you must not believe it!"

Tian Linwen cried bitterly. He wanted to crawl to the throne to appeal, but Tao Yuwei stepped on him tightly and he couldn't get free at all.

After reading the confession presented to him, Emperor Jianchang was so angry that he threw it to the ground.

"Tian Linwen, you deserve to die!"

Xiao Yuwei is the sword in his hand and his confidant. If he cannot trust them in doing things, there will be no one he can trust in the whole court.

Emperor Jianchang was well aware of their skills and abilities. At this moment, he did not doubt Xiao Yuwei's ability to do things at all.

The little girl Anle is a bit flamboyant on weekdays, but she doesn't have any bad intentions. In his eyes, she is just a little girl who is a bit domineering. As the eldest daughter of the general's mansion, she has just entered the golden hairpin age, but she can be slandered for having an affair.

Tao Aiqing just hit someone in anger because of his daughter, but when asked, he said that the hit was still too light.

If this happened in an ordinary family, wouldn't it be forcing people to die?

After such an absurd thing was reported, most people in the capital actually believed it. How could the moral standards among the people become so bad?

The Great Zhou is his Great Zhou, and even more so the Great Zhou of the people. He will never tolerate anyone using rumors to harm others.

Seeing that His Majesty was furious, the court officials all knelt down in the hall.

The evidence personally presented by Deputy Commander Xiao Yuwei must be true. There is no way to escape it. Fortunately, they did not rashly stand up and express their attitude just now.

Wei Jinghou, who was injured by Tao Zhihong, was so panicked that he lay on the ground with his hands, his forehead pressed against the ground, not daring to raise his head.

It’s over. He just spoke up for Tian Linwen. Your Majesty, please don’t vent your anger on him.

At this time, Tian Linwen still tried his best to argue loudly, "Your Majesty, that confession cannot be taken seriously! Please, Your Majesty, help me and clear my name!"

At this time, he no longer threw dirty water on others at will like he did when he first entered the temple.

He no longer directly accused Xiao Yuwei of giving false testimony, but just kept kowtowed, and did not stop even when his head was broken and bleeding.

Seeing him fighting so desperately, some ministers kneeling on the ground began to waver in their hearts.

"Your Majesty, may I have a look at the confession?"

They each have their own reasons and they don’t know who to believe.

Prime Minister Wang made his request cautiously, and after Emperor Jianchang's signal, the confession was handed to Prime Minister Wang.

After reading the testimony, Prime Minister Wang passed it to other ministers to read.

By the time everyone had finished watching, Tian Linwen's head was covered in blood and he could no longer knock his head.

If he knocks on it again, he will die!

"Your Majesty, it would be better if Xiao Yuwei could send these witnesses up here!"

After reading the testimony, Prime Minister Wang once again made a request on behalf of the civil servants of the Great Zhou.

In the past, when Xiao Yuwei handled cases, he never interrogated the prisoners in front of everyone. Instead, he tortured the prisoners privately in the imperial prison!

In the end, all I had to do was present a confession to His Majesty.

No one knows whether there is any injustice or false case in this matter!

Emperor Jianchang was not angry about this.

He knew that this was not the time for him to have the final say.

Sometimes, it is necessary to clarify some of the questioning voices in the court.

Doing so will help maintain balance in the court.

"Please bring up an important witness!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" The commander of the Xiaoyu Guards immediately walked out of the hall.
