Chapter 280 Exiled Man's Sister-in-law 53
In the capital, the emperor received a letter from Liu Jing: he requested a thorough re-investigation of the Liu family's case, saying that his father and brother were framed by villains and were wrongly accused.

The evidence found is attached to the letter.

Everyone in the court was silent. No one expected Liu Jing to be so arrogant. Just after winning a few battles, he asked the emperor to reinvestigate the case. Otherwise, he would not be able to fight with peace of mind until the Liu family was cleared of all charges.

It was obvious that he was threatening His Majesty.

However, Liu Jing's identity was different at this time. He was the only one who could fight at the border, so this matter could not be easily brushed off.

For a moment, everyone actually agreed. One minister said, "General Liu has been guarding the border for many years and never complained. He guards the entire Great Zhou Dynasty and Yanguan all day long. He will never kill so many people for a momentary benefit."

How ironic! When Liu's father died in battle, no one spoke for him. In order to get the truth, Liu Jing knelt outside the palace gate, but no one pleaded for him. He was beaten and someone even secretly attacked his legs to cripple him.

Now that they themselves are involved, they are willing to speak up.

"After Liu Jing was entrusted with an important task by Your Majesty, he devoted himself to driving the Huns away. It is obvious that he is loyal to Your Majesty. Your Majesty, please think twice!" Don't really make him angry and give up. What should they do then? They don't want to become the souls under the sword of the Huns.

The emperor looked unhappy and turned to the prime minister: "Is the evidence in the letter true?"

The Prime Minister's hand holding the letter was shaking. He raised his head with anger on his face. He could hardly control his anger and handed the letter over directly: "Your Majesty, please read it yourself!"

The emperor frowned and took it. After just a glance, he couldn't control his anger: "Asshole."

The ministers were all surprised at what was written in the letter. The prime minister and His Majesty were so excited. The minister standing in the front could not help but run over to pick up the letter that His Majesty had thrown down and read it. He immediately gasped. Others could not wait to come over to take a look and were all very angry.

They all knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, this boy is truly extremely evil and must be severely punished!"

The ministers standing in the back row couldn't see what was happening and were scratching their heads in anxiety. A few princes were too embarrassed to go up to see and didn't understand what was going on.

The emperor slammed the jade table and said, "Ling Rui colluded with the Xiongnu, causing countless casualties among the soldiers of the Great Zhou. Take him back to the capital! Execute him!"

Several princes were stunned, and the ministers were even more shocked. Direct execution?
The Imperial Concubine and the Third Prince...

The emperor's face was gloomy. He could forgive Ling Rui for being greedy and incompetent, but he must die because he dared to collude with the Huns. He could not forgive him!

The third prince stepped forward and picked up the evidence written by Liu Jing. The more he read it, the angrier he became. In addition to the time when Liu's father was leaked information to the second prince of the Huns by Ling Rui, which led to the death of Liu's father and son in battle, even the death of those soldiers was blamed on Liu's father and son by Ling Rui.

This was a big mistake, but what surprised him even more was that this idiot actually passed the plan of Great Zhou to the second prince of the Xiongnu again, causing Great Zhou to suffer a complete defeat!
He gritted his teeth, stupid and vicious thing!
If you think about it carefully, you will know what Ling Rui is thinking. The first time he framed the Liu father and son and colluded with the Huns, it must be because of his selfish motives. He has no ability, so he came up with this trick to deal with the Liu family.

This time, he became a general himself, so he naturally would not seek death. After all, there was no one standing in his way.

But can the second prince be willing to accept this? It is said that the second prince has been leading the army in the Xiongnu Dynasty recently. His men have defeated the Great Zhou every time. He also conquered the three cities. He is very popular in the Xiongnu. The Xiongnu king particularly appreciates him and is very likely to become the next heir.

This made the other princes jealous, but they did not have the ability to fight him.

"Your Majesty, let me go to the border and bring Ling Rui back personally to be executed by slow slicing!" He knelt down, regretting not killing this bastard earlier. Now, His Majesty probably even hates him and his mother. He was angry. It was obvious that the Second Prince had a handle on Ling Rui. If he was unwilling to cooperate, he would expose his collusion with the Huns, and death would surely await him.

That's why they had to leak the battle plan and deliberately sacrifice human lives.

The Third Prince's party also understood the seriousness of the matter at this time. Ling Rui is His Highness's cousin, and he committed such a heinous crime. Even if His Highness knew nothing about it, he would definitely be implicated.

The emperor looked deeply at the second prince and said, "Second prince, you go!"

The second prince, who looked honest and at ease, was stunned for a moment, looked around, and only stepped forward when the emperor's patience was almost gone, and said, "Yes, Your Majesty, I will accept your order."

The emperor no longer had the patience to stay any longer, so he stood up and left.

The second prince put down his hand, walked to the third prince, and prepared to help him: "Third brother..." The third prince had already stood up and strode away. His followers hurriedly shouted "Your Highness" and chased after him.

The Second Prince blinked innocently and looked at the Fourth Prince: "Fourth brother, is Third Brother angry with me?"

The Fourth Prince didn't want to pay any attention to his second brother, who was plain-looking, had no mother, and could only work in the Ministry of Rites. He said with a smile, "Third brother, your cousin is in trouble, it's normal for you to be unhappy. Second brother, you should pack up your things quickly and go to the border to complete what our father asked you to do." Then he left.

The third brother finally made a mistake, he had to go back and discuss with his people how to get the person down.

The second prince sighed, slowly left the palace, and went to prepare for the trip to the border.

Border.

Liu Jing captured another city, and now only the city near the Black Mountain was occupied by the Huns, but the Huns were also defending it desperately, obviously not wanting to give up the land of the Great Zhou that they had conquered with great difficulty.

But this time, without the internal information of the Great Zhou, they had no way to deal with Liu Jing. Even no matter what step they took, the other party could predict it.

The second prince even suspected that the Xiongnu also had spies from the Great Zhou. That was why every step he took was detected by the other side.

But he shook the thought off as soon as it came to his mind. If there really was a spy in the Great Zhou, he wouldn't have been defeated before. He pounded the table in anger: "Can we really not beat the people of the Great Zhou? No, it must be because that kid is from the Liu family, so he is so difficult to deal with, damn it!"

"Glasi, do you have any solution?" He looked at the ordinary-looking man below him.

This guy blocked an arrow for him when he was injured last time, and was later promoted to his side. Perhaps because he looks like someone from the Central Plains, he is good at scheming and plotting.

In the past, he was ignored by his father because of his bad temper, but after this kid came up with a few ideas, he became famous and gradually won the favor of his father.

Ge Lexi, also known as Liu Zong, was embarrassed: "Second Prince, I am incompetent. I only know some strategies but not military tactics. However, Your Highness was reprimanded by the King today and was mocked for being incompetent by several princes. It would be better to temporarily hand over the power of defending the city to other princes and guide them to be defeated by Liu Jing."

 This world is ending soon
