Dressed as the villain's stepmother

His Majesty sat in a high position, received the evidence presented by Zhike, and read every word of it clearly.

The evidence is conclusive and it is indeed not a false accusation.

His Majesty put the evidence in his hand aside and looked at Zhike who was kneeling on the ground.

"Everyone knows that the secret letter in the Main Hall was forged by the Queen Mother. Although the Queen Mother's people imitated the abbot's handwriting, it is ultimately different from the abbot's own handwriting."

"His Majesty!"

Zhike suddenly raised his head.

"Since Your Majesty already knew that the young monk was colluding with the Queen Mother and deceiving you, why didn't Your Majesty reveal all the truth in public?"

He didn't understand.

If His Majesty really knew all the truth, why would he let a bad guy like him become the abbot of the royal temple?

His Majesty did not answer Zhike's question, but took out a letter from the box on the side and handed it to Zhike.

"This letter is a secret letter that the abbot sent to everyone when he was awake when his time was approaching. Please open it and read it."

Zhike took it with both hands. The envelope was indeed written by the abbot.

Not only that, in this secret letter, the abbot master has recommended him as the next abbot of the temple.

"Master abbot..."

Zhike held the secret letter and sighed with emotion, his eyes red.

"The reason why I still let you be the abbot is not based on the secret letter in the main hall, but the secret letter in your hand."

"Abbott, I have taken great care of you, and I hope you will not be ashamed of your master's recommendation in the future."

His Majesty's people already know a lot about the internal affairs of the royal temple.

Zhike came here late at night and took the initiative to confess to His Majesty that people who have never surrendered to the Queen Mother are still useful.

"The young monk thanks Your Majesty for your forgiveness. He will definitely live up to the abbot and master's trust!"

Zhike leans in and makes a serious commitment.

"Okay, go down and do what you have to do."

His Majesty waved his hand and had the new abbot sent out.

house.

He looked at the smoke lingering on the incense burner, and then looked at the evidence that Zhike had given him in his hand, clenching it bit by bit.

Your Majesty knew that the Queen Mother had done a lot of things in the royal temple, but he did not expect that the other party would be so arrogant and even dared to poison the abbot.

"Eunuch Li, Mrs. Xuanliao and the Marquis of Zhenbei are here to see me."

His Majesty lowered his eyes, twirled the beads in his hand, paused for a moment, and then spoke.

"Remember, no one else can know about this."

"Yes!"

Eunuch Li knew that His Majesty was angry and did not dare to express his anger. He bowed and immediately went to summon Jiang Lianzhu and Zhenbei Hou.

Not long after, people were brought.

His Majesty directly exempted the two of them from saluting and asked Eunuch Li to grant him a seat.

"To make a long story short, Marquis Zhenbei, Madam Liao, I called you here late at night to let you take a look at these things."

His Majesty placed the evidence presented by Zhike in front of the two of them.

"Those gangsters, full of sins, dared to stain the eyes of the Buddha and harm the monks in the royal temple. I will never let them off lightly."

Jiang Lianzhu already knew what was in the evidence presented by Zhike, but this was the first time Zhenbei Hou saw these countless evil deeds, and he was filled with indignation.

"These bastards are simply lawless! How could they ruin the royal temple like this!"

The Marquis of Zhenbei was the most upright person, and he always said what he had to say.

Once this anger gets the best of me, I can't suppress it.

"Your Majesty, let me go, I have to deal with these bastards!"

"Zhenbei Hou, don't be anxious. I have already sent people to do this. The group of people can't escape. The people under me came to report. The group of people were arrested, but the leader of the gangsters was released. Walk."

His Majesty calmed down the grumpy Marquis Zhenbei, and then glanced at Jiang Lianzhu, who had been calm and silent.

"Mrs. Liao, I heard that it was your idea to let the gang leader go. Can you tell me why you made this arrangement?"

Marquis Zhenbei didn't expect that Jiang Lianzhu had an idea in this!

He was stunned!

She turned to look at Jiang Lianzhu aside, but after thinking carefully about Jiang Lianzhu's past behavior, she felt that Jiang Lianzhu must have her own reasons for doing what she did.

"Your Majesty, don't worry. If this is Mrs. Liao's idea, I believe she must have a reason!"

The Marquis of Zhenbei was worried about His Majesty's handling of Jiang Lianzhu, so he gave some advice.

"Your Majesty, I have seen those people who are hiding in the Royal Temple. They are just a group of reckless men who kill people. Everyone is brave and inadvertent, except for their leader. I see that person is more thoughtful than the others. .”

"If we catch everyone today, we will only get some small fish and shrimps, and there will be no way to get the evidence His Majesty wants."

The reason why Prime Minister Xiao has always been able to have smooth sailing in the court is that in addition to the backer of Queen Mother Xiao, Prime Minister Xiao himself is also first-class in his ability to win people's hearts.

"My wife heard that on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, the third prince and the Marquis of Zhenbei impeached the Prime Minister in the court hall. In the end, the Prime Minister Jin Chan escaped and escaped. In order to prevent such things from happening again and again, the best way is to force The confidants around the Prime Minister turned against you."

"The leader of that group of villains is the leader who slandered Crown Prince Xiang, and he is also the Prime Minister's confidant. If we repeat our old tricks, like the last time Zhenbei Marquis and the Third Prince impeached the Prime Minister, the Prime Minister will definitely do it in order to protect himself. Abandon your own confidants.”

Abandon the car to save handsome.

Since Prime Minister Xiao can abandon his father-in-law and brother-in-law without blinking an eye, he loses a confidant.

The most important thing is not to save your own life.

"Mrs. Liao, you really have a good plan!"

After hearing Jiang Lianzhu explain all the twists and turns, Zhenbei Hou couldn't help but praise him.

"It's necessary. You have found the wrong person today. I don't have Madam Liao's good plans. I'm afraid I won't be able to advise His Majesty!"

Zhenbeihou was shy and said with a smile.

"Marquis Zhenbei, don't be impatient. I will naturally find you. There must be a place that needs you."

His Majesty said with a smile, and then motioned to Jiang Lianzhu to continue.

"Master Hou, after the leader of the gang was let go, someone has been following him. The latest news is that the leader has disguised himself and returned to the capital."

"So, Marquis of Zhenbei, I leave the interrogation of thieves to you, and they won't worry if others check."

His Majesty took over the conversation.

"Yes, I will live up to your majesty's trust!"

Marquis Zhenbei left, leaving Jiang Lianzhu alone in the room. The emperor looked at Jiang Lianzhu, who had bright features and boldness, and sighed with emotion.

"Miss Jiang, if you are not married to Liao Aiqing, I would prefer you to join my royal family."

People in the royal family need to have strategy and courage, and Jiang Lianzhu is not lacking in these.

"Your Majesty, I would like to thank you for your kindness."

Thinking of the relationship between the eldest prince and Xiao Xiyan, Jiang Lianzhu expressed her gratitude towards this matter. .
