Daqing: Reborn Prince, intercepting Si Lili at the beginning

Sure enough, after a while, Hong Sixiang walked out from inside.

"Princess, His Majesty is calling you in!"

Li Yunrui looked very happy.

She understands Emperor Qing.

If Emperor Qing hadn't forgiven her, he wouldn't have met her at all.

Now that he is willing to see her, it must be that Lin Ruofu’s plea has worked.

Li Yunrui entered the imperial study hall with great joy.

However, as soon as Li Yunrui entered the hall, he suddenly felt that the atmosphere was a little wrong.

The prince knelt on the ground, his body trembling slightly.

Lin Ruofu stood nearby, showing no emotion.

Emperor Qing no longer played with his little arrow, but looked at the memorial in his hand with an expressionless face, and there was even anger hidden deep in his eyes.

Li Yunrui knows Emperor Qing too well.

She immediately realized that Emperor Qing was extremely angry.

Li Yunrui's heart skipped a beat, and he knelt down without saying a word!

No matter how stupid she was at this moment, she knew that things had once again exceeded her expectations.

"His Majesty!"

"Pah!" Emperor Qing fiercely threw a memorial at Li Yunrui and said in an extremely cold voice, "Take a look for yourself!"

Li Yunrui took a long breath and hurriedly picked up the memorial on the ground and began to read it.

However, after just a few glances, she felt a chill in her heart.

What she held in her hand was Zhuang Mohan's confession!

But...how is this possible?

How could Zhuang Mohan confess his guilt?

Is he crazy...huh?

Li Yunrui suddenly thought of the flyers scattered all over the city yesterday.

So, this is Li Chengyuan’s back-up plan?

It is possible that in Qing Kingdom, only Li Chengyuan can make Zhuang Mohan plead guilty willingly!

Thinking of this, Li Yunrui couldn't help but feel so angry that his teeth were itching!

She didn't expect that Li Chengyuan could do this!

No wonder he vowed to drive himself out of Kyoto.

"What do you have to say?"

Emperor Qing looked at Li Yunrui and asked in a cold voice.

Li Yunrui raised his head and said stubbornly, "Your Majesty, this is just Zhuang Mohan's one-sided statement. It cannot be counted!"

"Ha!" Emperor Qing laughed in anger. "The evidence is irrefutable, yet you still refuse to plead guilty? Fine!"

Emperor Qing said as he picked up another memorial and this time threw it directly at Li Yunrui's face, angrily saying, "Then take a look at this!"

Li Yunrui frowned and picked up the memorial on the ground.

She really couldn't think of any other mistakes she had made.

However, when she opened the memorial and took a look at it, she was instantly shocked as if she had fallen into an ice cellar and her soul had left her body!

How...how is this possible?

This lieutenant general is not dead???

No wonder Si Gu Jian’s female disciple didn’t come back to report to her.

She thought the two of them would leave immediately after completing their mission, but she didn’t expect that they would actually fail in their mission!!!

This happened too long ago!

Li Yunrui had grown up to the point where he had completely forgotten about this matter.

At that time, she was only concerned with monitoring Fan Xian.

Seeing that Fan Xian did not pursue this clue, Li Yunrui thought that everything was fine and never paid any attention to it again.

She never expected that this matter would come to light at this time.

What frightened her the most was that this lieutenant general not only surrendered himself, but also betrayed his superior, the deputy commander!

As a result, Li Chengyuan's foundation in Kyoto has suffered a fatal blow.

The most important thing is that she bribed the director of the Inspection Institute, colluded with the deputy commander of the City Patrol, and then colluded with foreign countries, betrayed Yan Bingyun, assassinated and framed Fan Xian... She is not afraid of any one of these things being exposed.

But if they all broke out at once...even if Emperor Qing "favored" her again, she would not be able to bear it.

Li Yunrui suddenly felt hopeless, she knew she was finished.

But she was unwilling to do so.

She suddenly looked up, stared at Lin Xiang intently, and asked in a serious tone, "I want to know, how do you know these things?"

Lin Ruofu replied calmly, "Early this morning, the lieutenant commander of the City Patrol and Zhuang Mohan's personal attendants went to the Ministry of Justice to surrender themselves.

The Ministry of Justice has just concluded the case after a day of investigation and has reported it to me. I dare not delay and will immediately go to the palace to report to Your Majesty!"

"Ha!" Li Yunrui laughed bitterly. "What a brilliant plan! Using the city's public opinion as a lure, using Chen Pingping to lure out Zhu Ge from the Censorate, and then using the Ministry of Justice and Minister Lin to deliver a fatal blow. With this kind of scheme, I'm convinced of my defeat."

Your Majesty, I plead guilty!"

Li Yunrui prostrated himself on the ground and shouted, "All the blame lies with me. I beg Your Majesty to punish me!"

At the top, Emperor Qing listened to Li Yunrui's words and his eyes suddenly fixed.

Li Yunrui's words seemed to be an admission of guilt, but in fact they were a reminder to Emperor Qing.

Her current situation is due to someone plotting behind the scenes.

Moreover, this person was not only able to secretly find evidence of his guilt, but he was even able to use the Censorate and Prime Minister Lin Ruofu. Such ability was by no means ordinary.

The most important thing is that, so far, no one knows who did this!

Li Yunrui will definitely suspect Li Chengyuan, and Emperor Qing will also suspect Li Chengyuan.

But I'm afraid no one knows what the real truth is, and no one can find out.

Because Li Chengyuan was so clean, he always took advantage of the situation and hid himself behind others, leaving almost no loopholes.

If there is a single flaw, it is probably the leaflets all over the city, the lieutenant general of the city patrol, and Zhuang Mohan's personal attendant.

But since Li Chengyuan dared to let them come, he must have made all the necessary preparations to ensure that they would not leak any information.

Even until now, the lieutenant general doesn't know who saved him!

So, Li Yunrui’s reminder can be said to be useful, but it can also be said to be useless.

And in any case, she herself must be useless.

Emperor Qing was silent for a long time before he slowly spoke, "Li Yunrui, you are incredibly audacious and your crimes are unforgivable. From today on, you will be demoted to the rank of Princess of Xinyang County and dismissed from all your positions. You will be ordered to leave the capital within three days and you are not allowed to leave your fiefdom without imperial permission!"

Li Yunrui laughed bitterly.

This time I really lost!

And the loss was quite tragic.

Not only was she driven out of Kyoto and her inner treasury taken away, but she even lost her honorable position as the eldest princess!

The title of county princess was almost the lowest level of nobility for the royal female members.

But actually this is already pretty good.

At least leave her a title.

Otherwise, if she were directly demoted to a commoner, there would be no way to save her.

Although the county lord's position is low, she at least has the opportunity to rise.

Li Yunrui didn't even dare to beg for mercy, for fear of angering Emperor Qing, so he immediately thanked him.

"Thank you, my concubine!"

The prince prostrated himself on the ground, also not daring to utter a word.

Lin Xiang stood aside like an outsider and did not express any opinion.

Emperor Qing had a blank expression on his face. After looking around at the people, he waved his hand wearily and said, "Everyone, go down!"

"Yes!"

The three of them bowed and said goodbye.

......

Chen Garden.

A carrier pigeon flew over.

Chen Pingping caught the carrier pigeon, took out the letter, read it through, and said with a smile, "There's a result!"

Fan Xian and the others were instantly shocked and perked up.

Li Chengyuan also looked over.

Although he was very confident in his plan, he did not dare to predict what the final outcome would be.

Because no one knows how tolerant Emperor Qing is of Li Yunrui.

Seeing the expectant gazes of the others, Chen Pingping smiled and said, "Your Majesty has issued an edict to demote Li Yunrui to the rank of County Lady and send her back to her fiefdom. She will be stripped of all rights, including those in the Imperial Treasury, and will not be allowed to return to the capital without your permission!"

"Huh?" Fan Xian's eyes flickered with disappointment after hearing this. "Even after all this, Li Yunrui's still alive? He hasn't even become a commoner?"

"That's enough!" Chen Pingping said with a smile: "No matter what, Li Yunrui is a member of the royal family, and he has helped His Majesty manage the inner treasury for many years. He is too deeply involved.

Unless she openly rebelled or committed an unforgivable crime against Fan Xian, she would not be demoted to a commoner, let alone killed!
