That old minister was the former confidant of the Eternal Emperor. He was upright and loyal, and he was most trusted by the Emperor.
"Everything the prince said is true. Because of the loss of disaster relief and the emergency situation in the frontier, the prince asked the old minister near the border for help and asked the old minister to prepare money for him first. Afterwards, the prince returned his treasures to the old minister."
As soon as the old minister said this, the people present were instantly stunned.
This old minister has an extremely strong temper, and he will never follow others. Even the Eternal Emperor made mistakes back then, and he dared to point it out, so he was quite trusted by the emperor. The first prince and the second princess had also tried to win over the old minister before, but to no avail. With exception, all were blasted out.
It can be said that none of the important officials in the court would question the words of the old officials.
As he said that, the old minister directly asked people to bring all the mortgage clauses signed by Lingyan and himself to the face of Eternal Emperor. On those letters, they were all tattooed with magic spells. This spell can tell the time and cannot be changed in the slightest. .
The Eternal Emperor looked at them one by one, but found that the time of those spells happened to be during the disaster relief period a few years ago.
Now, the evidence is overwhelming.
No one could have imagined that Lingyan would be so well prepared.
At that time, there was nothing unusual about Lingyan's disaster relief. The people the First Prince and the others found, and the evidence of embezzling money, were just fabricated out of thin air. Even if they were killed, they did not expect that the matter of embezzlement turned out to be true. of!
It's just that the person who is greedy for ink is not Lingyan, but Meng Yi and others. On the contrary, Lingyan mortgaged his own things to fill the vacancy...
At this moment, in the court, the ministers who were originally displeased with Lingyan's embezzlement of money for disaster relief, after hearing all this, all looked at Lingyan with admiration.
"I didn't expect that the crown prince would serve the country and the people like this. I really want to worship him."
The Eternal Emperor's eyes on Lingyan also softened a lot, and his eyes were full of concern.
"Yan'er, since that was the case back then, why didn't you say so?"
Ling Yan said: "Back then, when the Central Dynasty was about to move, General Mo led troops to guard the border. If at that time, my son exposed this matter, I'm afraid there will be changes in the border defense."
The Eternal Emperor had a look of relief.
The eldest prince and the second princess were completely dumbfounded.
They originally came to frame Lingyan, but... they never dreamed that not only did they not get what they wanted, but Lingyan took advantage of their impeachment to gain a strong sense of existence.
In order to make up for the disaster, he did not hesitate to use his own wealth to make up for it. For many years, he kept silent and only took credit for it.
This matter would never have been known, but today... they gave Lingyan a good chance.
At that moment, the first prince and the second princess looked at each other with a look of anxiety in their eyes.
"Take them down and torture them!" The Eternal Emperor changed his benevolent expression when facing Lingyan, and turned cold when he looked at Meng Yi and the others.
Those people were quickly taken down.
Mo Yunxian on the side was dumbfounded. Meng Yi and others who were sent down just now were all her father's confidantes. Mo Yunxian had no knowledge of the disaster relief money at all.
Seeing Lingyan's rebellion, the eldest prince felt anxious at the moment, but seeing Mo Yunxian and others still kneeling in the hall, another thought arose in his heart, and he stepped forward and said: "The prince is dedicated to the people, but he is too soft-hearted. , It may not be a good thing. This matter should have been told to the emperor as soon as possible, but you really shouldn't, because of your marriage contract with Mo Yunxian, you can't bear to mention it. Now it's the people around you, Meng Yi and others It is the confidant of General Mo, and the matter of greedy ink must have been instructed by the General..."
