"Your majesty, this, this wasn't written by me, I … I never had such a thought! Your majesty …" Xiao Shan did not dare to continue reciting it. He took the essay and knelt on the ground and hastily denied it.

"Your majesty, my Xiao family has always been loyal to the emperor and has never disobeyed him. This article is most likely someone who wants to frame my Xiao family. Your majesty is enlightened …" Xiao Zhenhai was sweating profusely as he kept wiping his forehead.

"framing? You mean this article is a forgery? Or did Xiao Shan's seal change as well? Xiao Shan, take out your private letter and have a look. " The Emperor coldly reprimanded him.

"Yes …" Xiao Shan trembled as he handed over his private seal. When he printed it on the paper, it was exactly the same as the one on the paper.

"Your majesty, it's not, I didn't write it, it's not …" Xiao Shan was frightened as he looked at Xiao Zhenhai with a pleading gaze.

"Your majesty, although this lowly general's older brother likes to write essays and also likes to go to the library to discuss matters of state with the scholarly officials, his eldest brother will definitely call him the wise emperor. He definitely won't be able to write such an outrageous article." Xiao He did his best to defend his elder brother.

"This king heard from State Duke Xiao and General Tianbao that it was this king who framed Xiao Shan. "Father, according to the owner of the Jadeite Pavilion, Xiao Shan started to boast when he drank too much in the bookstore the other day. Not only did the owner dissuade him, he even wrote an article scolding the emperor, and after he was done writing, he fell into a deep sleep. The bookseller was afraid that the matter would spread and he would be found guilty of conspiring against me, so he handed the article over to me and expressed his sincerity. Feng Yunzheng snorted coldly and said, "Royal father, why don't you summon the owner of the library here to testify?"

"Jiang Keji, immediately go and capture the Jade Distance Pavilion's boss!" Bring him to me! " The Emperor ordered.

"Yes sir!" Jiang Keji led a group of people out of the palace in a hurry and headed straight for the Jade Pavilion's bookstore.

It looked like tonight would be a sleepless night.

"Shan'er, what's going on? That day, who were you with in the library, and who framed you?! " Xiao Zhenhai asked Xiao Shan after hearing what Feng Yunzheng had said.

"Father, I, I …" "I can't remember …" Xiao Shan was confused. His mind quickly recalled the scene where he went to Jade Pavilion the day before yesterday …

He remembered that he had initially arranged to have the children of aristocratic families to read books and papers at the bookstore. Later on, someone suggested drinking alcohol to liven things up, so he was happy to drink a lot of wine. Later on, he was helped home by a servant.

Feng Qianyue cursed Xiao Shan in his heart! However, he was certain that Xiao Shan was framed, and it was —

He suddenly felt a chill. He suddenly raised his head and saw Ru Yue standing behind Feng Yunzheng like an orchid in a valley, neither fighting nor stealing. However, he saw a trace of coldness in her eyes!

It's her! This matter definitely had something to do with her. She had joined hands with Feng Yunzheng to flirt with Xiao Shan! It must be.

Lian Ru Yue looked at Feng Qianyue and shook her head regretfully. 'Feng Qianyue, ah, Feng Qianyue, you're not the only one who knows how to lay out a formation. You're not the only one who knows how to pull out a cocoon.

That's right, ever since she was framed by Xiao Zhenhai and imprisoned in the Heaven Prison by the Emperor, she had patiently and silently been looking for an opportunity. She swore to give the Xiao family a heavy blow.

However, ever since Xiao Zhenhai had been suspected by the Emperor, he had been even more careful. For a moment, he couldn't find any flaws.

Until that day, when she learned from 49 that Lian Lian Fang didn't go to the academy, but to the Jade Pavilion, so she ordered the palanquin to go to the library to find Lian Fang. In the end, she met Xiao Shan, who came to the library, at the entrance of the Jade Dragon Pavilion.

Xiao Shan looked at her coldly, mocking her for coming here as a girl to seduce some noble king.

He looked coldly at Xiao Shan and the other noble sons and princes in high spirits. The scholarly men chatted and laughed as they walked into the Jade Pavilion. As they walked, they talked about the affairs of the country.

At that time, she smiled and came up with a plan.

Thus, a few days ago, when Xiao Shan once again went to the bookstore, under praise from the crowd, he drank a total of three jugs of wine. Thus, a few days ago, Xiao Shan once again went to the bookstore, under praise from the crowd, he drank a total of three jugs of wine.

As a result, he copied down the document and even stamped his own seal on it. After he had finished sealing it, he fell asleep and could not remember what he had done, nor would he know that the piece of paper that he had copied in a daze was the one that the Emperor had just seen.

The wine from that day and the documents from that day were all secretly arranged by Feng Yunzheng. His plan was planned by Lian Xiyue, and he was the one who executed it. Of course, he also secretly praised her plan.

More than two hours later, the Jade Dragon Pavilion's boss, Li Zhi Ran, was brought before the emperor. He was trembling as he knelt in the middle of the hall.

The Emperor ordered the papers to be placed in front of him and asked, "Have you seen this article?"

"Give a good answer. If there is even a single false answer, you are guilty of bullying the sovereign!" Xiao Zhen Hai stared at Li Zhi Ran and asked.

"Your majesty, please spare my life. This, this article has nothing to do with this subject, it was written by the Eldest Young Master Xiao, and this subject did not dare to deceive the emperor. Since this subject happened to meet the Ninth Prince, this subject handed it over to the Ninth Prince. This subject is loyal to the emperor, and has no complaints.

Li Zhiran's words were almost the same as Ninth Prince's.

"What? You …" Xiao Shan felt his vision turn black.

"Nonsense! How could my son write such an article? Xiao Zhen Hai grabbed Li Zhi Ran's collar. His eyes bulged out as if he wanted to eat Li Zhi Ran.

Li Zhi Ran was afraid that he would bear the responsibility of disrespecting the Emperor. Although he was frightened by Xiao Zhen Hai, he still tremblingly said:

"Imperial … Crown Prince is wise. I … I …" "I have no enmity with eldest young master, I would definitely not dare …"

"Duke Xiao's words are too unreasonable." Feng Yunzheng saw Xiao Zhenhai's somewhat exasperated appearance, and the corner of his lips curved up in an unfathomable smile. He said, "The owner of the bookstore first opened with elegance, allowing the elegant scholars of the capital a place to go, and secondly, to earn the money of these refined scholars. No matter what, he had no reason to take the risk of cheating the First Young Master of the Xiao family for the crime of bullying the sovereign."
