Chapter 805

Leading soldiers into the city, hiding dragon robes, and having a huge amount of property of unknown origin... Any one of these three things can kill Xiao TIANYAO, not to mention the three things together.

Even if the Dragon Robe was hidden and damaged, even if the huge amount of property was planted, it is an iron fact to lead the soldiers into the city in defiance of the imperial edict. Xiao TIANYAO's sophistry is not tolerated, or even useless.

Now the emperor mentioned these three things at the same time and questioned the courtiers, that is, he did not allow them to defend Xiao TIANYAO.

As a matter of fact, the emperor did not give his courtiers an opportunity to defend Xiao TIANYAO. Not long after his words fell, the emperor said, "the huge amount of property in King Xiao's mansion is of unknown origin, which has attracted the people's anger and caused thousands of people to be injured. The impact of this incident is extremely bad. If I don't deal with King Xiao, how can I explain it to the people in the world? How can we stand up to tens of thousands of people in Dongwen? "

"My Lord, this matter... Has yet to be found out. I'd like to ask the Lord to find out." The officials who spoke for Xiao TIANYAO couldn't find any evidence to defend him, so they had to say these painless words. They were secretly worried about King Xiao.

Lin Xiang has always been a practical person. Although he turned his mind to King Xiao when he was powerful, he would not miss the chance to show himself in front of the emperor.

As a dog raised by the emperor, Lin Xiang knows when and what to say to please the emperor. No need for the emperor to show more, he stood up and said with righteous words: "how can we find out if the evidence is conclusive? Don't you mean to say that King Xiao was calculated to bring his troops back to Beijing without permission? Was the Dragon Robe planted? Is the huge amount of property framed because of its unknown origin? "

Lin Xiang asked three questions in a row, but he didn't wait for an answer. He threw out three more questions: "the world knows that Jin Wuwei only listens to King Xiao. Who do you think can calculate that King Xiao will take Jin Wuwei back to the capital? The jinwuwei camp is heavily guarded, and even a fly can't fly in. King Wen and the seventh prince went to the jinwuwei camp empty handed that day. Who can hide the Dragon Robe under the eyes of jinwuwei? The property seized from King Xiao's mansion is more than the tax revenue of ten years in Dongwen. Who do you think has the ability to frame King Xiao

It seems like the same question, but it answers the first three questions.

People all know Jin Wuwei's courage. Before, there was news that the black armor guards of the central Empire had suffered losses in Jin Wuwei's hands.

Except King Xiao, no one in the world can mobilize Jin Wuwei, and no one has the ability to frame and calculate King Xiao under Jin Wuwei's eyes.

As soon as Lin Xiang said this, the whole room was quiet. A group of generals wanted to explain, but they didn't know where to start.

Although the emperor was dissatisfied with Lin Xiang's vacillation before, his words were deep in his heart. Lin Xiang's eyes were kind, and his words were even sharper. "The emperor, the son of heaven, committed the same crime with the common people. King Xiao stationed troops for private use, intended to rebel, and the evidence was clear. He was willing to ask the emperor to pay attention to it and make an example."

There is only one dead end to rebellion. Lin Xiang's so-called important point is decapitation.

"Please make an example of King Xiao." Lin Xiang is the emperor's running dog. His words are often the result that the emperor wants. As soon as he says them, many civil servants begin to echo them. The generals were very angry, but Lin Xiang was right. No matter how angry they were, they could only say, "holy, this matter..."

However, as soon as they opened their mouth, they were interrupted by Lin Xiang, "the evidence of King Xiao's rebellion is solid. You don't want to share your worries for the emperor, but you don't care to intercede for King Xiao and defend him. Are you with King Xiao? Together with King Xiao, they intend to rebel? "

Lin Xiang's words were undoubtedly driving people to death. The ministers who wanted to fight for time for King Xiao turned pale with fright

"I dare not!"

"The emperor's lesson!"

"I have no two hearts!"

At this time, even if you have a heart, you can't say it.

However, if they don't say it, it doesn't mean that the emperor and Lin Xiang will let them go. As the most useful pawn of the emperor's staff, Lin Xiang never needs the emperor to say more and will take the initiative to share the emperor's worries.

"The emperor, general Zhenguo, general Hushi, General Chen, General Xiao..." Lin Xiang pointed to the generals on the right and pointed them out one by one. The people he ordered to the Ming Dynasty were all his own friends with King Xiao. "These generals had close personal relations with King Xiao. They had blocked the emperor from dispatching troops to King Qin many times before. The officials suspected that they were conspiring with King Xiao and were willing to ask the emperor to take them down, Examine carefully. "

"The end will be wronged, the end will be wronged!" It seems that the generals who were named had expected that they were not afraid of being called to the Ming Dynasty. They just looked righteous and didn't have the slightest sense of timidity and retreat.

They are indeed members of King Xiao's camp, but king Xiao has never made courtiers. They are grateful for King Xiao's kindness and help him speak everywhere, but they are not involved in the rebellion.

It is precisely because they did not participate that they could stand in the hall and speak for King Xiao and delay for him.

"Is it unfair? It's not your mouth that has the final say. It needs the penalty department to examine it. You just said that King Xiao was innocent, but what's the truth? King Xiao had long been willing to give up his duty to collect money and garrison troops. " Lin Xiang wrote beautiful articles in the imperial examination. His words were not so tall, but his words were like a knife.

"My Lord, the last general is unjust and defends for King Xiao. He also believes in King Xiao's character. He has no intention of rebellion. He is willing to ask the emperor to see clearly." When the emperor announced that he would take King Xiao, they knew there would be today.

Although they didn't have much personal relations with King Xiao, they were all beaten down by the emperor in the previous storm. If King Xiao hadn't suppressed the emperor's arrogance, they and the family behind them would have collapsed.

It can be said that without king Xiao, there would be no them, and when King Xiao fell, there would be no good for them. Now King Xiao is taken down by the emperor and charged with treason. Even if they don't plead for King Xiao and stop King Qin's troops from entering the city, the emperor will not let them go.

"Lin Xiang is right. It's a verdict whether he wronged the people in his own criminal department. Someone... Will take them down." Lin Xiang really understands the emperor. These are the people the emperor wants to win.

The conspiracy involves a lot. In order to settle Xiao TIANYAO's accusation and destroy his reputation, he has spent so much time planning. If he only deals with Xiao TIANYAO, it would be a loss.

This time, he not only wanted to get rid of Xiao TIANYAO, but also uprooted his influence in the court and the army
