Chapter 134 Evidence
As soon as these words were spoken, the hall fell silent, with only the breathing sounds of the civil and military officials. It was as if a sword was hanging over everyone's head, as if it would fall down and cut off their heads in the next second.
Ning Yuan Hou and General Chen's faces turned pale and they both looked at the emperor. They could remember that the false accusation back then was a collaboration between Prime Minister Lu and the civil service group, who wanted to follow the emperor's will and eliminate the Huainan lineage. The emperor was young and deceived, and his position was unstable when he ascended the throne. Everything was a tragedy led by the civil service group. The emperor was at most a puppet, and therefore the military generals' hatred was always towards the civil service group.
Now, the daughter of King Huainan swore that all of this was masterminded by the emperor. Twelve years ago, the emperor had just ascended the throne and was not yet twenty years old. He was just a young man. How could he be so cunning and scheming? How dare the king of a country communicate with the royal family of Xilin and frame loyal ministers and generals? If it were exposed, how could the subjects of the world obey him?
"Nonsense!" The princess shouted, "After the emperor ascended the throne, he worked hard and loved the people. He fully supported the border army to resist Xilin. How could he communicate with Xilin? If the emperor really communicated with Xilin, why did Xilin fight with Dayuan for more than ten years? As long as the news was released, the army's morale would be weakened. Without any effort, they could provoke a confrontation between Dayuan's military power and the emperor's power. How could the soldiers at the front guard the border for the emperor? It's simply nonsense!"
The eldest princess' voice broke the silence in the hall.
The woman took out the letter.
"I have the letter as proof. You can tell at a glance whether this is the Emperor's handwriting!"
No one dared to take the letter in her hand. No one dared to move until the emperor nodded. However, Marquis Ningyuan, General Chen, and even the King of Southwest were already eager to take a look at the letter in the woman's hand.
Su Qingwan also clenched her fists. The evidence was irrefutable. It was also a letter that slandered her father for treason. This scene was happening again.
The emperor leaned back, and the eunuch stepped forward, took the letter from the woman and handed it to her. There were three letters in the woman's hand. He opened one and read it carefully. Lu Jing was standing beside him and could see from the corner of his eye that the letter was indeed the emperor's handwriting. The most intriguing thing was that a person's handwriting would change as they aged, and this letter was actually the emperor's handwriting twelve years ago.
The second letter was also written twelve years ago. Lu Jing only glanced at it and did not see all the contents clearly. He could only take a quick look and saw that it was indeed a correspondence between the Emperor and the Prince of Xilin.
The third letter was from several years ago, hoping that King Xilin would destroy the evidence from that year to avoid disputes.
The three pieces of letter paper were all written in the emperor's handwriting, and it looked like the letters were from many years ago, showing signs of time.
There was anger in the eyes of several generals.
General Chen had a much hotter temper than the Marquis of Ningyuan and the King of Southwest. He asked in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, this is a serious matter. We would also like to take a look at the so-called evidence." The emperor was relatively calm. After reading the letter, he raised the corners of his lips and looked at General Chen, "General, do you not believe me?"
"I believe the evidence?"
"What? If it's really my handwriting, can you convict me? Who dares to convict me? I am the only one in the world who is supreme. How can you convict me based on just a few pieces of paper? Who dares to do that?"
Several generals were so angry that their faces turned red, but Su Qingwan was calmer.
Ning Yuanhou said, "Your Majesty, by saying this, do you admit that twelve years ago, it was you who conspired with the King of Xilin to frame the King of Huainan and ruthlessly killed the nine clans of the King of Huainan?"
The emperor seemed to have heard something funny. He pushed the letter aside and said calmly, "Since they want to read it, just circulate it to them."
"Yes!"
The eunuch sorted out the letters and handed them to the King of Southwest first.
Su Qingwan took a step forward. She didn't care whose handwriting it was. She just wanted to read the content of the letter. The emperor had just ascended the throne and was not sure about negotiating with Xilin. But the King of Huainan was also a big worry for Xilin. Over the years, Xilin had repeatedly invaded the border of Dayuan, and the King of Huainan led the army to resist. It was the strongest line of defense on the border. As long as the King of Huainan was there, this line of defense was indestructible.
The Emperor of Dayuan wanted to cut off his own arm, and the King of Xilin wanted nothing more than that, so he agreed to conspire with the Emperor and demanded a huge amount of silver and trade terms that were favorable to Xilin.
This clause made Su Qingwan furious, but she didn't dare to believe it easily.
Could the emperor be so stupid?
