Li Deyun saw that the situation was not going well, "Hurry up and retreat, Uncle Li."
"Yeah." The driver raised the carriage and was about to swing it down.
"No, they're leaving."
Suddenly, the crowd rushed towards Li's carriage and soon surrounded it.
A man walked out of the car.
"I wonder why you are stopping the Li family's carriage?" Li Deyun looked at the crowd coldly.
"I heard that it was Master Li who interceded for Chen Xiaonian."
"Right and wrong will be determined. Whether I beg for mercy or not actually has no effect on the outcome."
"Of course, you officials are here to protect each other."
Soon the crowd became angry.
"It's you officials who protect each other."
Someone suddenly threw an egg at the carriage.
Soon others also started throwing debris at the carriage.
"Don't blame me for being rude to you if you continue like this."
Li Deyun was about to draw the sword at his waist.
"Murder, murder." The crowd became more and more angry.

After a while, Li Deyun also had bruises on his face.
"Don't be too arrogant."
Li Deyun drew out the sword in his hand and chopped it on the beam, scaring away everyone.
At this time, the voice of Eunuch Fu came over.
"The Emperor has arrived."
When everyone heard that the emperor was coming, they immediately quieted down and prostrated themselves on the ground.
Master Li and his entourage also got off the carriage and knelt on the ground.
"Kowtow to the emperor, long live my emperor."
"Li Aiqing has suffered."
The emperor's voice sounded above the three heads.
"Wei Chen dare not."
Seeing Tutor Li kneeling on the ground and staggering, the Emperor signaled Eunuch Fu to help him up.
"Master Li, please stand up quickly."
After seeing Li Taifu standing respectfully beside him, the emperor spoke again.
"I just heard that someone dared to commit murder with a sword in broad daylight."
When Master Li heard the emperor speak, he could no longer stand.
"Your Majesty, it should be..."
The emperor ignored him and interrupted him.
"Fukang will help Li Taifu in first."
So Eunuch Fu and his attendant invited Imperial Tutor Li to the Dali Temple.
Listening to the emperor's tone, Li Deyun knew that the emperor was going to use him as a scapegoat.
"Your Majesty, I saw that the situation was out of control and had no choice but to intervene."
"Oh, it's Deyun."
The emperor narrowed his eyes as he looked at the young man kneeling below him.
"Is that the Canglong Ridge that you and Chen Xiaonian went to?"
"Yes."
"Well, since you helped me retrieve the God-killing Bow, stand up and answer me."
Li Deyun stood up only after getting the emperor's approval.
"You said that you resorted to this desperate measure because of the critical situation just now?"
Li Deyun nodded.
"Are you sure? Isn't it because you feel that Chen Xiaonian was wronged by me and you can't suppress your anger..."
“Your Majesty, Grandfather just said that right and wrong are determined by the heart.
I admit that I was a little angry after hearing what everyone said just now.
Seeing my good friend suffer makes me feel uncomfortable."
"A country has its own laws, and a family has its own rules. If a person breaks the law, he should pay the price.
But if he is wrongly accused, I also hope that the emperor will give him justice."
"You are so sure he is innocent."
Li Deyun looked into the emperor's eyes and nodded sincerely.
"If I want him to die, what will you do?"
"If the emperor wants his subjects to die, then they have to die. If it is the emperor who wants Brother Chen to die, then I have nothing to say.
All I can do for Brother Chen is to see him off before he dies and collect his body after he dies."
"Hahaha..." The emperor couldn't help but laugh out loud after hearing Li Deyun's words.
"Your Majesty has more." Li Deyun interrupted the emperor's laughter.
"Anything else?" The emperor looked at him in surprise, wanting to hear what else he would say.
"I will swear that I will never enter the government, because I don't know how to assist an emperor like you. 933"
"You are great, Li Deyun." The emperor looked at the young man in front of him with approval.
"Okay, everyone get up."
"Let's take a look at who gave Chen Xiaonian the courage to assassinate me."
The emperor ordered the imperial guards to surround the Dali Temple and led everyone towards it.
"Your Majesty has arranged everything."
Eunuch Fu stood beside the emperor and whispered a few words, and the emperor nodded to indicate that they could begin.
"Please find a seat for Master Li and the other two." Eunuch Fu shouted and asked someone to bring three stools.
Master Li and the other three sat down nervously.
"Take the suspect."
........
Chapter 437 Zhu Houzhao's Hesitation
After a while, people from the Ministry of Justice brought Chen Xiaonian in front of everyone.
Although he has been locked up in the prison for several days, this has not affected Chen Xiaonian's condition at all.
"Your Majesty, the suspect has been brought in."
"Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Zhang."
Zhang Xian quickly shook his head at the emperor.
"It is my humble servant's honor to be able to share His Majesty's worries."
The emperor nodded, indicating that Zhang Xian could begin the review.
Zhang Xian looked at the person kneeling on the ground, then looked at the crowd around him.
"The trial of Chen Xiaonian's assassination attempt will now begin."
Mr. Zhang first read out the case, and then asked:
"Master Chen has something to say."
"Master Zhang, based on what you said, I can only say that I did not do it.
From beginning to end, I have never attempted to assassinate the emperor."
"Oh, you mean the emperor is lying."
"That was not what I meant."
Soon Zhang Xian ordered someone to bring up something and threw it at Chen Xiaonian's feet.
"Master Chen, take a good look at this. Is it yours?"
Chen Xiaonian picked up the jade token on the ground, looked at it, and nodded.
"This fell from the man who assassinated the emperor."
"Sir, it would be a bit arbitrary to accuse me of assassinating the emperor based on this jade token alone."
Chen Xiaonian looked ahead calmly.
"Of course there is more to it than that. Chen Xiaonian uses the same Kung Fu as you."
The emperor stared at Chen Xiaonian closely.
"Do you have anything else to say?" Zhang Xian continued.
Faced with these evidences, Chen Xiaonian shook his head.
"Hey, Li Deyun, what should we do now?"
Mu Xiaoyan pulled Li Deyun's sleeve.
Li Deyun looked at his grandfather and said, "Wait a little longer."
"Since you have nothing to say, I hereby declare that Chen Xiaonian's attempt to assassinate the emperor has become a fact, and he will be executed on a certain day."
"This old minister has something to say." Master Li stood up.
The emperor nodded and motioned for him to continue.
"I think since the evidence is irrefutable, we should move up the execution date to avoid any more trouble."
The emperor was a little surprised after hearing what Tutor Li said.
"Didn't the Master plead for Chen Daren yesterday? Why did you change your tune today?"
"Your Majesty, it is mainly because of these evidences that I did not expect that Lord Chen had been harboring evil intentions towards you for a long time."
“This must be severely punished.”
As Chen Xiaonian expected, the emperor was obviously hesitant after listening to what Tutor Li said.
Seeing that Chen Xiaonian didn't resist at all from the beginning to the moment he confessed his guilt, the emperor couldn't help but feel a little confused.
Suddenly, the emperor thought of what Li Deyun said when he entered the room just now, and felt that there was something fishy about this matter.
The emperor turned and whispered something to Eunuch Fu.
Eunuch Fu immediately walked up to Zhang Xian and said a few words with his head down.
"¨` According to the emperor, Chen Xiaonian should be imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison and executed in the autumn."
Soon, the Royal Guards took Chen Xiaonian away.
The emperor also used the excuse of feeling unwell to return to the palace first.
"Grandpa, what should we do now?"
Li Deyun hurried forward and asked.
