[Those who have been infected have only just been infected. 】

The system said quietly.

[The reason why they didn't get involved before was because the concubine had never slept with Huang Yuan, because she wanted to keep her virginity for He Yong. But recently He Yong was discovered by He Hai, so he let the concubine sleep with Huang Yuan. He Yong thought that since they were going to break up, he would tear it apart completely and drag Huang Yuan directly into the abyss, where he would never be able to recover.]

[Every time he asked for hush money, he was insulted by Huang Yuan in various ways, so he was ruthless this time.]

Lin You raised his eyebrows upon hearing this, [No wonder.]

The confused ministers also understood.

To put it bluntly, these two people deserved it.

"Huang Yuan was caught stealing He Xiu's nephew's smelly socks, so he took advantage of the fact that no one was around and threw He Xiu down from the upstairs, causing his accidental death."

"At that time, I was just about to ask He Xiu for money, and I ran into this scene. At that time, I thought that my nephew was dead, and I had no one to borrow money from, so I proposed the hush money. In addition, people had already arrived at that time, so Huang Yuan agreed to my request."

"But Huang Yuan had already killed He Xiu before he was pushed off the building. He even threw him down from the building after his death. This is a heinous crime. You can't let him go."

After He Yong finished speaking, he added a sentence, fearing that everyone would let Huang Yuan go.

"Haha, He Hai and He Yong, you two brothers have lost all your family fortune, so you conspired together to blackmail me?"

Huang Yuan tried hard to calm down.

So what if He Yong said the truth, does he have any evidence?

Ha ha.

Moreover, everyone in Shengjing knew that the He family had a prodigal son named He Yong who loved gambling, sex and drinking, so what he said was not without basis.

"Huang Yuan, don't try to quibble. I have evidence."

Huang Yuan had just finished his arrogant thoughts when he heard He Yong's words and was immediately stunned.

As He Yong spoke, he took out a broken jade ring from his arms. At that moment, Huang Yuan's eyes widened.

Everyone narrowed their eyes and looked, and Minister Jiang moved closer to take a look.

He also went to the scene on the day He Xiu died, but he was not yet a minister, nor the person in charge of the case, so he could only watch and learn from the outside.

The Dali Temple was the one investigating the case at the time. When they saw a crescent-shaped mark on He Xiu's palm, they raised questions. The people from the Dali Temple said that the coroner had accidentally pressed on it.

Although he was confused at the time, he gradually forgot about it due to his busy schedule.

Now that I think about it, isn't the broken ring crescent-shaped? In this case, He Xiu pulled off Huang Yuan's ring, and it broke when it fell from the building. It was discovered by He Yong who was present and he picked it up. As for the lost small pieces, they must have been hidden by the people from the Dali Temple and the evidence was destroyed.

"It's so funny that you slander me with a fictitious ring." Huang Yuan argued, his mouth corners already a little stiff.

"Everyone knows that you, Mr. Huang, have liked wearing rings since you were a child, and your favorite is a jade ring. Among them, there is a white jade ring with a red flaw. You like it very much and have worn it for several years. When everyone laughed at you for wearing a flawed jade, you said that it is unique because of the flaws."

"But later, you stopped wearing the ring. And you stopped wearing it after my son got into trouble. The people in the Ministry of Rites can testify to this, as can all your colleagues."

After He Hai finished speaking, many ministers began to discuss in low voices.

The Minister of the Central Secretariat was the first to speak up. "I remember this very clearly because I was the one who laughed at Huang Yuan for wearing a flawed jade."

"Later, when he didn't wear it, I asked him about it. I remember Mr. Huang said with an unhappy face that he accidentally broke it. Listen carefully, he said it with an unhappy face, not with a sad face."

"I was very confused at the time. He didn't look sad when something so precious to him broke, but he looked unhappy. I didn't expect that he looked like that because he had done something wrong."

After the Minister of the Central Secretariat said this, many ministers also stood up.

"I was there at the time, and it was exactly as the Minister of the Central Secretariat said."

"I'm there too."

"I'm there too."

In fact, those ministers who stood up were all gossipy ministers, but it was precisely because they loved gossip that they made this discovery.

Huang Yuan still wanted to argue, but He Hai directly asked the witness from the Ministry of Rites to come out to testify that Huang Yuan was seen wearing a jade ring that morning, but he did not wear it after He Xiu got into trouble.

And they discovered it when they were at the scene.

Because Huang Yuan treasured this jade ring very much, he took it off to wipe it one day, and a subordinate accidentally touched it. He was then beaten with a stick and lost half his life. He was paralyzed in bed for the rest of his life. People paid special attention to his jade ring and were deeply impressed by it.

After the witness from the Ministry of Rites finished his testimony, Minister Jiang also stood up and talked about what he had seen and his inferences.

After he said this, this matter also involved the Dali Temple.

What happened back then was done by Shangguan Yingjie, who had just taken office as the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple.

Shangguan Yingjie heard that he was mentioned, and hurried forward and said: "It seems that there is indeed something fishy in the case back then. I had just taken office, and I was afraid that someone had not yet surrendered, so they secretly hid the evidence to cover it up. This was my negligence. After leaving the court, I will go back and investigate it thoroughly and give an explanation to Lord He."

[With just a few words, he completely cleared himself of all wrongdoings. He is indeed a member of the Dali Temple! ]

He Hai was about to get angry when he heard Lin You's inner voice and took back the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

[However, System, since the Emperor knew that Shangguan Yingjie was Shen Yu's man, why did he still keep him? And let him continue to be rampant?]

[Logically speaking, when the emperor caught him and the three old ladies having sex, he should have taken this opportunity to get rid of him.]

System, [Maybe because, there are other uses?]

He Hai's expression froze.

If that's the case, then he won't bother with Shangguan Yingjie for the time being.

The ministers also fell silent and did as Shangguan Yingjie said.

If he really found out the person who hid the evidence and shielded the suspect, and proved that he was ordered by Huang Yuan, then Huang Yuan would be convicted.

So now, Huang Yuan has to go to jail.

As soon as Shangguan Yingjie came back from court, he rushed back to the Dali Temple to find a scapegoat.

As soon as I returned to my office, I saw someone waiting inside.

Except for Prince Yu, there is no one else who can walk silently in the Dali Temple.

He stepped forward and bowed respectfully, "Your Majesty."

Shen Yushen stared at him coldly without saying a word.

No matter how calm Shangguan Yingjie was, he was sweating profusely. "Your Majesty, do you want to save Huang Yuan?"

Apart from this matter, he couldn't think of the purpose of Prince Yu's sudden visit here.

In fact, this matter is a multiple-choice question. If you want to protect Huang Yuan, you have to insist that no one hid the ring, but obviously the persuasiveness of this is very weak unless you put him out.

Therefore, if Huang Yuan is protected, he will be dismissed as Shaoqing; if not, he can stay as Shaoqing.

It all depends on Shen Yu’s choice.

But Shen Yu is a smart man, he must know who is more useful.
