The princess is rebellious and brings space to make trouble for the villain

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please listen to my explanation."

"I have never harmed the people."

The Minister of Works was being pulled by the Imperial Guards and was struggling.

No matter how the Minister of Works defended himself, the Emperor remained unmoved.

The Imperial Guards grabbed the Minister of Works, who resisted instinctively and hit the Imperial Guards on the head with the tablet in his hand.

"Your Majesty, please give me a chance to explain..."

In the hall, the sudden reversal caught all the officials off guard.

Just when everyone was wondering whether the man in the distance was really Lu Yunting.

Only Minister Fang's hands were shaking the most violently.

"Your Majesty, you said that as long as I can produce evidence, the case can be overturned. I wonder if it still counts?"

The emperor pinched his brows and said, "Forget it!"

"Dali Temple Chief Justice, go back and fetch the case file of the Lu family's embezzlement case from sixteen years ago."

The Chief Justice of the Dali Temple chuckled twice and said, "Your Majesty, I have already taken it."

emperor:……

"I'll give you one chance."

"If you can't solve the case this time, do you know what problems you will face?"

"The common people know."

"Tell me, what injustice have you suffered?"

Lu Yunting took a deep breath and suppressed all the hatred in his heart, then he spoke: "Sixteen years ago, my family did not embezzle. The evidence of embezzlement that the late emperor arranged to find in my home was not from my family."

"The late emperor allocated a million taels of silver, but only a dozen taels were left to redeem the stupidity of the common people. If you want to embezzle, why are you so open and aboveboard? This is not called greed, this is called theft."

"Back then, my father was already the Minister of Revenue. How could he be so blatant under such powerful circumstances? Unless my father wanted to die."

"But the fact is the opposite. There are more than a hundred people in my clan, and half of them died during the exile. These are far more important than money."

"Your Majesty, I want to see with my own eyes the embezzlement letter that was taken out of the Lu family's study!"

Lu Yunting's voice echoed in the Golden Palace.

After hearing this, all the officials felt upset.

Prince Pei taunted: "Your Majesty, it has been more than ten years, and many people are involved in this matter. Moreover, this is an order from the late emperor, I am afraid it will offend the late emperor."

Duke Anguo said, "Yes, Your Majesty, I believe that this matter will never go wrong. This lowly person causing trouble in the Golden Palace is already a capital crime."

"Back then, the Grand Commandant personally led the troops to find the evidence. How could he have made a mistake?"

Prince Pei: "Yes, Your Majesty, I think this lowly person wanted to clear his name and deliberately fabricated the facts."

Lu Yunting raised his eyes and looked sideways.

Familiar yet unfamiliar faces overlap with the young man in my memory.

These people once praised him for his academic talent.

I didn't expect that there was such a plot behind this.

"Father, the Grand Marshal is my grandfather's family. I don't think they will do this." The prince took a step forward and spoke.

The emperor was deep in thought, looking at the people below, feeling extremely disappointed.

Lu Yunting closed his eyes and took a deep breath, but this brief moment of calm did not last long.

He opened his eyes again.

"My Lords, sixteen years ago, our Lu family was convicted of corruption, but my father refused to sign. It was only when the prisoner threatened the lives of the entire family that he was forced to sign the confession."

"After being exiled, my father felt deeply guilty, and my mother was depressed for many years and became ill. They fought for sixteen years in order to clear their name one day."

"There were more than 100 people in the whole clan, but now there are only about 60 left. When I wake up in the middle of the night, the bloody scene is still vivid in my mind. The adults also have their own families and people they want to protect."

"I watched my people die in front of me, but was powerless to do anything. The heart-wrenching pain seems to have happened just yesterday. But my family was wronged. I even used my own money to help the people during the flood."

"God has its way. No one can escape punishment. My father taught me to be devoted and loyal to the royal family since I was young. It has been sixteen years. My entire family has been wronged for sixteen years. If I had known that this would be the outcome, I would never have read that sage book!"

"I won the first place in the exam at the age of twelve, and the first place in the provincial exam at the age of fifteen. I studied here just to be close to the emperor and be loyal to the court."

"Hahaha, I should have known that failing the imperial examination is a sign." Lu Yunting's eyes were slightly red, but he forced himself not to let the tears fall.

The emperor was shocked, "Are you the genius boy Lu Yunting?"

"I am a humble commoner, but Your Majesty cares about the country. If Your Majesty wants the people to die, then the people must die! Is that important?"

The emperor's heart was filled with grief. Father, you have truly missed a genius that only appears once in a century.

"Master Bai, I order you to immediately find the letter in the Lu family's study sixteen years ago."

"Yes, yes, Your Majesty." Lord Bai stood up excitedly.

"Eunuch Li, you must come with me, don't delay for a moment!"

Mo Qitian admired Lu Yunting as a man. If it were someone else, he would have died long ago.

Fang Shiwan was outside the palace, drinking cup of tea again and again. He saw Eunuch Li coming and going several times, but his father didn't come out.

She felt vaguely uneasy.

"Miss, it's time for lunch." Ziyun was beside her, reminding her softly.

"Let's eat later."

"Yes." Ziyun didn't understand what was wrong with the young lady, but he didn't dare to ask.

Some coachmen who were escorting their masters to court at the palace gate saw that it was time to leave the court, but the palace gate was not opened.

Everyone was frantic on the spot.

"Sir, why hasn't the palace gate been opened yet?" A brave coachman got off the car and asked.

The gatekeeper guard stood there motionless.

This made Mrs. Che even more anxious.

Nothing will happen, right?

Just then, the palace gate was opened.

"Let me go. I am the Minister of Industry. How can I allow you to be so presumptuous?"

The coachmen heard the sound, looked up and exclaimed.

One of the drivers shouted, "Isn't that my master? How did he get caught?"

He saw his master being carried forward by the armored royal guards.

Frightened, he hurried forward.

"Master, what's wrong with you?"

The Royal Guard waved his hand and slapped the driver's hand away.

In the court, Duke Anguo was regretting so much that his intestines turned green.

Why didn’t the guards come to report that the Lu family had run away?

How did he come to the imperial city?

The Grand Marshal tried to send someone to pass on the message, but there were imperial guards everywhere and he could not move at all.

The moment Minister Fang heard that the other person was Lu Yunting, he was so frightened that his eyes almost went black.

If it weren't for the other adults around him supporting him, he would have fallen down long ago.

He raised his head and tried to look at Lu Yunting who was kneeling in the hall.

Lu Yunting turned his head and their eyes met in the air.

Minister Fang stood up suddenly, "You are not Lu Yunting!"
