Reborn to marry the emperor, I just want to confuse the emperor and seize the throne

"You also know how to ask for fairness. I have given fairness to your students. Who should I ask for fairness from the millions of students in the world? What use is there for me to give to a pillar of the country who relies on stealing?"

Jiang Huai just felt like crying but had no tears. This was the reason why he was unwilling to climb up. It would be great to be a small tutor in the Imperial College. Without desires, he would not be hated by others.

He said, "I am innocent!"

At this time, the Imperial Guards also found the silver that Wang Qing mentioned from Jiang Mansion.

"Your Majesty, I have found out."

"Bring it up." The emperor thought to himself, there really is dirty silver, now he can't deny it.

Commander Shang took out several unopened packages and placed them one by one in the middle of the hall.

The Emperor asked, "What are these?"

"This is the stolen money that I seized from the Jiang family's warehouse. Your Majesty, please take a look." Commander Shang opened a box himself, and saw that it was really filled with gold and silver, neatly laid out.

The emperor is also confused now.

Xie Shang was also very upset. Could this be what Ruan Ruan meant by waiting for someone to produce false evidence as proof? This was real gold and silver that was searched out from the Jiang Mansion!

The evidence is now conclusive! How is Master Jiang going to prove his innocence?

Jiang Fenghua was also hiding in the curtain behind the dragon throne and watching this scene quietly.

She had thought of this step a long time ago. Su Xuan would definitely put the stolen silver into the Jiang Mansion. Until she saw the gift that was supposed to be given to Jiang Jinyan was taken away by Commander Shang and placed in the center of the hall, she seemed to understand how Su Xuan got the silver into the Jiang Mansion.

Yesterday, Hongxiu came back and told her that the gifts had been delivered, and Butler Cheng also sent a gift to the eldest master. Only then did she realize that this batch of silver was actually brought to the Jiang Mansion by Hongxiu and Butler Cheng's son personally yesterday.

She believed that Butler Cheng would not collude with Su Xuan. After all, the Cheng family and the Su family were enemies. The only possibility was that the gift Butler Cheng prepared for Jiang Jinyan was swapped.

The Jiang family's housekeeper knew that it was Hongxiu who delivered it personally, so he did not check it and put it directly in the warehouse without opening it.

So is there a thief in Butler Cheng's corner? Who is it?

At the same time, this batch of parcels also caused the ministers in the court to stand on tiptoe to find out what was going on. Everyone was discussing, "The evidence is all there, and now he still refuses to admit it? With so much silver, it shouldn't be possible for Master Pan to save so much with his salary!"

"It must be the silver that Wang Qing bribed Jiang Huai with. So much gold, how greedy!"

"Open that red gift box and see what's in it."

Commander Shang also opened the box. He took it out and looked through it before saying, "Your Majesty, this is a chess manual with the secrets of chess written on it. This looks like the Secrets of Chess in the third incomplete copy of Meng Ru Shen Ji."

Commander Shang suddenly became very excited, because he was also a chess enthusiast, and he liked to play a game with someone when he had nothing to do. "Someone gave Master Jiang an ancient score like this, which is a priceless treasure to decipher the game."

After hearing this, the emperor said, "Show it to me." Jiang Huai actually kept this good thing for himself and didn't give it to me first.

The emperor usually loved to play chess to pass the time. After he looked through the book, he found that it was an authentic one.

The emperor said angrily, "Jiang Huai, what crime should you be charged with?"

Jiang Huai saw this and said, "I have never seen these boxes before. I don't know why these silvers are in Jiang's house."

He looked at Jiang Jinyan. Did he take it back?

Jiang Jinyan also shook his head, "Father doesn't know, and I don't know where the money came from, and how it ended up in the Jiang Mansion's warehouse."

Although Jiang Jinyan was doing business outside, he never brought money home. He and Ruan Ruan had a secret base, which was hidden very far away and it was impossible for anyone to know about it.

Then Jiang Huai said honestly, "But I know who this chess book belongs to."

Commander Shang asked, "Didn't the students bribe Master Jiang?"

"This is the chess manual of my third daughter Jiang Fenghua. How could it be given by a student? Where did Commander Shang get it? My daughter Ruan Ruan treasures this chess manual very much. She put it in her dowry when she got married. How could it be in the storeroom of the Jiang Mansion and put it in a gift box like this?"

The emperor was so absorbed in reading the chess manual that he said to himself, "No wonder she is so good at chess. I am no match for her. So that's why."

Everyone was also full of doubts, because looking at Jiang Huai's expression, he didn't seem to be lying.

"Master Jiang, stop changing the subject. It's not wrong to search your house for silver!" Su Dehai, who was standing among the ministers, finally spoke up. "I didn't expect a civil servant to dare to accept so much bribes. If every student gave some to their teacher, Master Jiang would be rich without receiving a salary!"

At this moment, Jiang Huai suddenly came back to his senses, "Commander Shang, when you went to the Jiang Mansion to search for these things, did you find anything else? My wife was there."

Commander Shang said, "Madam is in the mansion. What happened? It was Madam who asked me to go in and check. I checked the tutor's study and finally found these things in the Jiang family's storehouse."

The Jiang family's storeroom was also filled with books. It was obvious that Master Jiang was an honest and good official. The two gifts were also placed randomly and were not hidden on purpose. At that time, he checked the largest box and saw that it contained silver, so he took away all the gift boxes.

"I hid a gift in the warehouse. It's a birthday present for my wife. Did you bring it here too?" Jiang Huai couldn't kneel any longer. He crawled into the pile of gifts and began to search through them. Finally, he found it.

Jiang Huai held the gift box in his arms and knelt before the emperor again, "Your Majesty, I don't need the money, but you can't take the gift I gave to my wife."

The emperor was still immersed in the chess game and didn't hear Jiang Huai's words at all.

Xie Shang found it strange that Commander Shang had collected something from the Jiang Mansion, and what gift did Grand Tutor Jiang give to his mother-in-law that made him treasure it so much? Gifts should be expensive, and every gift he gave to Jiang Fenghua was priceless.

Before he could say anything, Su Dehai spoke again, "These are all stolen goods. Master Jiang, please don't confuse people. Open the box and see what's in it."

Jiang Huai was also stubborn and directly said to Su Dehai, "The emperor hasn't spoken yet, General Su, don't rush to convict me. If there are students cheating, please ask the officials of the Ministry of Rites and Master Pan to investigate strictly. There is no need for General Su, a military general, to make decisions. I will not admit anything I didn't do."

"You keep talking about stolen goods. General Su, have you seen someone accepting bribes from me? Every penny spent by my Jiang family is clean and honest. You have to rely on evidence when speaking, and don't just talk for the sake of talking. Without evidence it will become a false accusation." He said this to Su Dehai.

Su Dehai never expected that he, a great general who had made great contributions to the Zhou Dynasty, would be angrily rebuked by a weak civil servant like him.
