Chapter 41
After a few deep breaths, Chu Qingyun felt the pain in her chest being suppressed by her, and the resentment of her father being poisoned replaced the pain, supporting her to move forward.

She walked into the hall step by step, looking at Emperor Shengde with no extra expression on his face.

Emperor Sheng Wu was sitting in the high hall, although he was in his forties, he seemed to be stimulated, not very energetic, he slumped on the dragon chair, squinting at Chu Qingyun.

The embarrassed prince beside him knelt in the center of the hall, his face ashen!
Chu Qingyun's eyes touched King Xuan's, but he saw that the other party was inquiring, his eyes narrowed, as if he wanted to swallow Chu Qingyun into his stomach.

Chu Qingyun settled down and knelt on the ground: "Chu Qingyun, the guilty minister, pays homage to Your Majesty."

"Qingyun, get up quickly. It's okay to be in Jing'an Temple for the past two days. This kid Lu Jinzhou is not serious. I have already scolded you for you."

Chu Qingyun was not sure what kind of doctrine this Emperor Sheng Wu was playing for.

The corner of Emperor Wu's mouth suddenly raised: "Qingyun, I regret that General Chu did such a thing, but you are the one who once made a plaque for me, and I will not treat you badly, so you have to tell me the truth. "

Chu Qingyun clenched her fists. Emperor Sheng Wu was indeed an old fox. At this time, he still wanted to pour dirty water on his father.

She raised her eyes suddenly, and the eyes were filled with mist.

"Your Majesty...Your Majesty, what Qingyun said before is true. My royal father really has no intention of collaborating with the enemy. If he really has the intention of conspiring against the enemy, why does no one in my Chu family leave Zhongzhou?"

Chu Qingyun knelt down and smacked her head fiercely, and exclaimed in pain: "Father's blood book is more proof."

Emperor Shengde looked at her: "The blood book left by General Chu?"

Chu Qingyun sneered in her heart, Lu Jinzhou had already reported the blood book, but Emperor Shengde did not list it as evidence on the grounds that the blood book had not come, but now he pretended to know that the old fox was indeed more cunning than the little fox.

"Your Majesty, this blood book was brought back by the surviving soldiers. Qingyun sent someone to compare it, and it is indeed father's handwriting."

As he spoke, he took out the bloody book from his bosom. After ten days, the writing on the bloody book had turned maroon, which was even more shocking than before.

Eunuch Li took the blood book and held it up.

Emperor Sheng Wu took a hasty glance at the words "thin as paper" on it, the blood book in his hand floated down from the air, was thrown to the ground, and slapped on the dragon chair with his palm.

The crisp sound resounded in the hall, scaring the little eunuchs to lower their heads a bit.

Chu Qingyun remained silent, but her fingers had already penetrated into the flesh.

It was his father's last hope, but Emperor Sheng Wu lightly threw it on the ground.

Chu Qingyun held back her anger and controlled herself not to look or pick it up.

Lu Jinzhou suddenly walked forward, picked up the bloody book, looked at the words on it carefully, and shook his head: "Your Majesty, the bloody book of Master Chu is exactly the same as the corrupt military salary."

"Prince, thanks to the fact that King Xuan knelt down for an hour in the morning to plead with you and let me hear your argument, what else do you have to say now?" Emperor Sheng Wu said angrily, "Then why is the gold that Zuo Shangshu was greedy for ink in your mansion?" turn up?"

"I... Father King... I am wronged... They must have framed me."

Lu Jinzhou: "His Royal Highness, those boxes of gold ingots are sealed within the walls of your Prince's mansion. Could it be possible that the Crown Prince doesn't know about such a big movement?"

King Xuan was watching the excitement from the sidelines, and he didn't think it was a big deal: "Brother Prince, Father loves you so much, he will never punish you severely, just admit your mistake."

His Majesty raised his eyebrows: "Haven't you told me the truth?"

The prince cried and crawled under the dragon chair: "Father, I was wrong, you spared me, spared me. I was just enjoying myself for a while, and I was wrong."

Emperor Sheng Wu kicked him away: "Xiao Lizi, pull it down. You will be beaten thirty with a stick. You will be confined to the Prince's Mansion. You can't come out without my order."

"Slave Zunzhi." Eunuch Li stepped back, walked up to the prince, and raised his eyebrows at the two eunuchs below.

The little eunuch grabbed the prince's arm and dragged the limp prince out.

Chu Qingyun sneered, only [-] boards?
It seems that this board is to be picked up high and put down gently.

If it wasn't for the letter delivered to King Xuan yesterday, His Majesty would be so stupid that he would not even be willing to beat the crown prince today.

Chu Qingyun suddenly raised her head, and there were two emotional tears in the corners of her eyes.

"Your Majesty, you want to make decisions for the tens of millions of displaced people, and for the dead soldiers. Could it be that just because he is the crown prince, tens of thousands of troops can be buried on the border for no reason, and my father can die of hatred?"

Chu Qingyun stood up, approached His Highness the Crown Prince, stared at his slowly murderous eyes, stood in the center of the hall, and said neither humble nor overbearing: "His Royal Highness is greedy for military pay, which weakens the defense capabilities of the soldiers, and even makes them useless. This is one of them;

Second, the prince disrupted the marching plan, resulting in the loss of two cities in a row, and the people were homeless;
Third, the crown prince was worried that the matter would be exposed, so he pushed my father to take the blame, making him the crown prince in vain!

"Your Majesty, as a subject, my heart is chilling, and as a woman, my heart hurts."

With a trembling voice, Chu Qingyun revealed the prince's crimes one by one.

Emperor Shengde frowned. When Lu Jinzhou proposed to let Chu Qingyun testify, he wanted to refuse, but there was no reason to refuse, so he had to agree. Unexpectedly, Chu Qingyun, like her father, didn't know what was good or bad.

For a moment, Emperor Shengde couldn't think of a way to save the crown prince and send Chu Qingyun away.

The silent King Xuan stepped forward, and suddenly said, "Qingyun, don't blame the prince brother, the prince brother must have been fascinated by ghosts for a while."

King Xuan bent down: "Father, I also believe in the elder brother of the crown prince. It is just a moment of confusion for him to store so many gold ingots. It will be different from the past in the previous dynasty, and he will not do anything rebellious."

For a moment, the hall was so quiet that one could even hear breathing.

The prince's body paused, and he trembled like chaff in an instant.

Chu Qingyun glanced at King Xuan, the corner of her mouth raised, she was right, only King Xuan dared to start a war at this time, and he was the only one who had the ambition to seize the opportunity more than anyone else.

Suddenly, Emperor Shengwu exuded a murderous aura, and the majesty of the emperor for many years exuded. The prince did not raise his head, and he was already frightened and softened in the hall.

"Pull it down, you will be punished fifty times with a stick, and you will be imprisoned in Dali Temple. Give me a good interrogation. If you don't pass the interrogation, you will be imprisoned for the rest of your life."

It took only a cup of tea, but a suppressed voice came from outside the hall,
Thirty rods are disabled, and fifty rods are dead.

These words are not alarmist, even if the fathers-in-law in the palace are merciful, the prince may only hang half his life.

Don't worry about the remaining half, she will take it slowly, and the prince will definitely return it all!
Chu Qingyun was agitated, and her chest was filled with qi and blood. Before she could thank Lu Jinzhou, she suddenly felt a pain in her stomach, and a mouthful of black blood sprayed on the hall.
