"No one wants to bear the infamy of being a traitor, and no one can deprive those who have been? waiting for the truth? to get the truth? Power!"

Xie Xian looked at Emperor Liang shaking his head? He said firmly, "Your Majesty? Even you can't do it?"

Emperor Liang coughed frantically, but shouted with all his strength: "The truth? It is that King Anyuan killed his father with a knife! He is a traitor who killed his father and tried to usurp the throne! This is the truth?!"

"And you!" A small amount of blood continued to flow out of Emperor Liang's mouth, and his eyes were fixed on the wooden box in Xie Xian's hand, "Using something of unknown origin to slander the late emperor! It's like conspiracy!"

"Really." Xie Xian took out a piece of yellowed paper from the wooden box.

The paper is crumpled, and the handwriting on it is scrawled and smeared a lot, as if the person who wrote it was in a state of anxiety at the time.

Xie Xian held up this piece of paper, looked at the ministers, and said loudly, "This handwriting? It was written by the former Crown Prince Chu Qing, and the things recorded on it are shocking."

"In the winter of February [-]th in the third year of Qiyuan, the third year of my father's ascension to the throne. I can't forget the rainy night three years ago. The emperor's grandfather was seriously ill. I wanted to visit him, but I never wanted to run into my father." There was a dispute with the emperor's grandfather, and the father impulsively stabbed the emperor's grandfather with a dagger!"

"Father fled in a hurry, but did not take the knife and scabbard with him. When the imperial grandfather was dying, he entrusted an edict to us, and asked us to deliver it to him when Prime Minister Zhang came. I peeked at it That imperial edict?, so I? chose to conceal it. I? took the scabbard and edict? out of the palace, but I never expected that my uncle would go to visit the emperor's grandfather, and was bumped into by Prime Minister Zhang!"

Xie Xian paused for a while, observing the expressions of the people around him.Their faces were not good, they did not expect that there were so many secrets in the succession of the throne 25 years ago.

His eyes fell on Ji Min, and the sadness that slipped through Ji Min's eyes was easily captured by him.

And Mr. Zhang? Prime Minister? Looking at the handwriting in his hand in shock? His emotions were on the verge of collapse: "This is impossible... this is impossible..."

Xie Xian sighed slightly in his heart, and continued to read: "It's my fault that my uncle was slandered as a traitor. If I could stand up...tell the truth...a big mistake has been made, and my uncle's family will be saddened by it." I am so regretful that I have been slandered by my superiors and suffered a catastrophe of extinction!"

"The son never speaks of his father's faults. Forgive me? I can't personally redress my uncle's grievances. I can only write down what I saw back then, and keep the unpublished edict and scabbard, so that future generations can redress my uncle. Chu Qing remembers It was on the fifteenth day of the second lunar month in the winter of the third year of Qiyuan."

After Xie Xian finished reading the manuscript, he put the manuscript on Mr. Zhang's Prime Minister's desk: "Did Xie Xian forge it out of thin air? The old Prime Minister and all the adults had done business with the late prince and were familiar with his handwriting. Can be circulated to each other."

Except Mr. Zhang and the prime minister, no one touched the handwritten letter, because they believed in the contents of the handwritten letter in their hearts.

"It's the old man's fault!" Mr. Zhang? The case of King Anyuan's treason."

More and more ministers followed suit and knelt down to demand a retrial.

Emperor Liang had given up his arrogance, and he sat sluggishly on his seat, lifeless. He looked at the minister kneeling in the hall, tears streaming down his face: "You are all here? Push me! Are you all here? Push me!"

Xie Xian said: "Your Majesty? It's been 25 years. It's time for a loyal man to be wronged for 25 years."

Xie Xian knelt down and bowed to Emperor Liang: "I second the proposal!"

Everyone was shocked. Since the conflict between Zhen Guohou Kaixuan and Liang Emperor three years ago, Zhen Guohou has never bowed to Liang Emperor again. They did not expect that at this time he would oppose Liang Emperor to help Anyuan Wang Ping. ?Kneel down!

Ji Min looked at Xie Xian who was kneeling on the ground in shock, all kinds of complicated emotions tore through the coldness on his face.

He never thought that Xie Xian would know these things, maybe his identity had already been known to him, but he never mentioned these things to him, only? today? suddenly mentioned the retrial.

He never thought that he would kneel down to Emperor Liang for this matter?

Xie Wanyi looked at Xie Xian and then at Ji Min, what did she understand? My brother could have pretended to be ignorant of this matter, but he still said it.

She looked at Emperor Liang and said, "I? Second."

Emperor Liang looked at her: "You... even you..."

After Chu Jingxing saw his mother and uncle express their opinions, he also went to the hall and knelt down: "My son and minister agree."

King Yu and King An walked out slowly: "My son and minister seconded the proposal."

Emperor Liang pointed at them and said tremblingly, "Do you know the meaning of retrial?"

Chu Jingxing raised his eyes and looked at Emperor Liang: "I know this, but father and emperor are kings and emperors, isn't it the dawn that protects the water and soil of this side? If you can't make the people of Liming live happily and happily, then is it still a wise and benevolent king? "

"The case of King Anyuan is very involved. How many people died unjustly because of this, and how many people are still alive because of the crime of treason? Life is hard in the world, and how many people live for it every day? Washing their faces with tears, they are also under the protection of the king. Dear Limin, why can't we give them a clean slate?!"

Emperor Liang looked at Chu Jingxing's bright eyes. From those eyes, he saw an indestructible belief. It was a belief of serving the people wholeheartedly. It was almost indestructible and pure.

He used to have such a pair of eyes, but he lost them in the swamp of desire for power at some point.

Emperor Liang didn't say a word. Did his eyes fall on the other two sons? He didn't see this belief in them...

His eyes swept across the people present one by one, and finally landed on Ji Min: "Does the national teacher have any different opinions on the request of these ministers?"

Emperor Liang's last hope rests on Ji Min. The National Teacher's Mansion has always served only the emperor, and he believes that the National Teacher will definitely stand by his side.

And under his gaze, Ji Min raised the hem of his clothes and slowly knelt down: "The minister seconded the proposal."

The last hope in Emperor Liang's heart collapsed, and his whole body became old at once. He looked at all the people kneeling in the hall speechlessly, feeling powerless, his power and position were useless.

"Then..." He paused, his voice trembling with some choking, "Let's retry."

In the end, the Wanshou Banquet was disbanded before it even ended, and the people present had no intention of celebrating the Wanshou Festival at all.

They went back home in a hurry, today was too much of a blow to them.

But some people did not leave.

Emperor Liang sat alone on the steps in the Chenji Hall, looking at the door of the hall, motionless?

Supervisor Fuyan squatted next to him: "Your Majesty, be careful of the dragon body."

Emperor Liang seemed to be unknown.

There was the sound of footsteps, and the last figure stood in front of them. Fu Yan looked up and saw Xie Xian standing there waving at him.

Fuyan nodded and backed away.

Xie Xian also sat on the steps next to Emperor Liang.

He said: "To this day, brother-in-law, I still want to ask why? You clearly know that the Marquis of Zhen Guo will never threaten you, and will never threaten your Chu family, why do you want to do that? ?”

Emperor Liang's eyes were blank: "The prestige of the Marquis of Zhenguo in the army is high, you know better than me, the orders of the Marquis of Zhenguo are even more effective in the army than the orders of the emperor, how can this make me Can’t prevent it? How can I not get rid of it? The merits are so high, even if the ancestor emperor is still alive, his actions will only be more extreme than mine.”

"Have you forgotten your identity?"

Xie Xian's inquiry brought Emperor Liang back to his senses at last.Emperor Liang looked at him in a blink of an eye, his eyes full of doubts.

How could he forget his own identity, he is the emperor of Daliang!Most noble sovereign!

Xie Xian suffocated in his heart: "Your Majesty, you are the Majesty of Daliang! When I waited for the soldiers to go through fire and water for the country and society of Daliang, and the blood was stained on the battlefield; but you turned to the enemy country for the sake of false speculation and framing by people with intentions. When you betrayed us, did you ever think that we are also the people of Daliang, protecting Daliang!"

"What do you want me to do!" Daliang roared in a hoarse voice, "Marshal, Marquis of the State, Uncle Guo! I know that you and the emperor's favorite prince have never been me! Even my queen is not sincerely married to you! mine!"

"Aside from constantly making achievements to prove that I am more suitable to be the king of Liang than my brother, what else can I do! And you are my presence? The biggest stumbling block on this road! Apart from you, I have no other way ...Even in this battle, I lost..."

Emperor Liang suddenly laughed ferociously: "But so what, the winner? The loser? The bandit, now I am sitting on this dragon chair!"

Xie Xian stood up and looked at him with cold eyes: "Even so, you can't change the fact that you are not as good as Qingqing! Just like, you can't change the fact that you killed your brother! Your throne is your poison. Killed Chu Qing and snatched it! There is no difference between your position and the previous emperor."

Emperor Liang suddenly raised his head? Looking at him, his pupils shrank: "How do you know this!"

Xie Xian curled his lips into a smile, and his eyes were full of sarcasm: "By the way, you have always said that sister has no sincerity towards you. But the marriage with you is what sister begged hard from the late emperor and father. Kneeling in front of the ancestors of the temple for three? Days and three? Nights, I lost half my life before I got my father to agree to marry you. Unexpectedly, I finally fulfilled my father's prophecy that you will repay your cold heart and indifference if you are cruel. She is not a lover, forcibly marrying her will definitely harm her to the extreme."

"What?" Emperor Liang was like thunder, unable to believe his ears.

"Xiao Xian, go home."

A female voice came from outside the hall.

Xie Xian and Emperor Liang looked together, only to see two figures standing outside the hall, surrounded by the blazing sun, as if they had passed away.

Xie Xian smiled at them, that smile was no longer cold and sarcastic, but warm and gentle.

"it is good."

Emperor Liang watched as Xie Xian approached the two of them step by step.

He stood up with difficulty on both hands and feet, and staggered towards the figure in his eyes.

"wait wait wait!"

"Wan'er, wait for me?!"

"Wan'er!"

Emperor Liang's feet were unsteady, and he fell to the ground. He struggled to get up, but fell to the ground after running a few steps. In the end, he didn't have the strength to get up again, so he could only watch her leave. It's hard to get back.

Emperor Liang was lying on the ground, covering his eyes with his arms, tears slid down his eyes and into his temples, and fell into his hair.

The suppressed sobs echoed everywhere in the empty Chenji Hall.
