The host is forced to marry every day

Chapter 324 Guarding Thousands of Miles for Her (43)

She didn't understand why Nie Chi delayed telling her such a big thing until now.

Even let Xiao Shuanzi tell her.

Obviously he has so many opportunities to talk to her.

Isn't he afraid that she will be bewitched without paying attention, and will be attached to another man for the rest of her life?

The more Yuan Yao thought about it, the angrier she became.

She angrily walked towards the bedroom.

Unexpectedly, just halfway there, a guard came to report, "Your Majesty, the Minister of Dali Temple asks to see you!"

Yuan Yao stopped abruptly, "...Dali Siqing is back?"

The guard replied, "Yes, the Minister of Dali Temple escorted the prisoner back to Beijing overnight, saying that this case is of great importance, and I hope His Majesty can interrogate him immediately."

Yuan Yao nodded and said, "Take them to Qinzheng Hall."

The guards took orders.

Yuan Yao thought about it, and decided to wait for the matter here to be settled before going to Nie Chi to settle the score, so she took Xiao Shuanzi directly to the Palace of Qinzheng.

……

In the Palace of Qinzheng.

Yuan Yao sat on the dragon chair, looked at the people standing below, and the so-called criminal who was kneeling on the ground with unkempt hair, and frowned tightly, "Who do you think is the mastermind behind it?"

Dali Temple Minister cupped his hands, "Your Majesty, according to Cao Jun's current confession, the mastermind behind the scenes is Prince Huai."

Yuan Yao didn't believe it, "Uncle Huang has always lived in the capital, how could he extend his hand to Huainan?"

The national teacher, who had been silent all this time, took a step forward and reminded, "Your Majesty, I have mentioned before that Duke Huai was born in Huainan, so it is not surprising that he left a close friend there."

Yuan Yao pursed her lips, but still asked persistently, "Where's the evidence? It's too absurd to conclude that the emperor's uncle is behind the scenes just based on the criminal's false statement."

"This..." The Minister of Dali Temple looked puzzled, "Cao Jun did identify several places where the evidence was hidden for the minister, but the minister did not find it, I'm afraid... it was dealt with in advance."

Yuan Yao was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously looked at the national teacher, but saw that the national teacher was also a little shocked when he heard this, as if he hadn't expected this situation.

Yuan Yao was silent for a while, and then told Xiao Shuanzi, "Go and call the emperor."

Xiao Shuanzi responded and hurried away.

After he left, the national teacher still did not give up and confirmed with Dali Temple Secretary, "Is there really no evidence found?"

Dali Temple Minister nodded, "I have searched all corners of Cao Jun's mansion several times, and even searched the secret room. There is really no evidence."

The national teacher's face darkened slightly.

Not long after, Nie Chi walked slowly into the Hall of Qinzheng under the leadership of Xiao Shuanzi.

He saluted Yuan Yao first, and then asked with a smile, "Your Majesty hastily summoned your ministers, what's the matter?"

Yuan Yao carefully looked at the expression on his face.

Although he spoke with doubts, he clearly guessed why she came to him.

Yuan Yao looked at the man kneeling on the ground with his head down, "Cao Jun, look up, is this the mastermind behind the scenes you said?"

Cao Jun's body trembled slightly, then he raised his head and looked at the smiling man beside him.

He swallowed, and hastily lowered his gaze, "The person who made the deal with the guilty minister is only said to be a close friend of Duke Huai... The guilty minister has not personally seen Duke Huai himself, so he cannot identify him. Please forgive me. "

Yuan Yao said suspiciously, "But you don't have any evidence, how can I believe that you are not pouring dirty water on Duke Huai?"
