The little sister is a troublemaker

Chapter 370 The Bereaved Dog

When Chu Chenfeng rushed back to the palace, it was almost dawn.

He went directly to the imperial study and was relieved when he saw the intact little man. Although he had made all the preparations, he was still very worried when he heard his subordinates say that King Cheng almost cut off the emperor's finger.

So when he heard that Huo Yuanruo had broken three of King Cheng's fingers, his expression did not change at all, as if he still felt it was not enough.

Chu Jie had not rested and was reading the memorials. Huo Yuanruo and Li Xiaoqi, who were standing beside him, had already fallen into a deep sleep after eating and drinking their fill.

One of them was lying on the eaves, and the other one took a few chairs and laid them out, then lay down next to Chu Jie.

When Chu Chenfeng came in, the two people who were sleeping soundly opened their eyes, muttered a few words when they saw the visitor, turned over and continued to sleep.

Chu Jie put down his pen and ran to Chu Chenfeng, looking a little aggrieved.

Chu Chenfeng threw the long sword in his hand to Xing Yi behind him and asked softly, "Why don't you go and rest?"

Chu Jie pursed his lips and said, "I want to wait for the emperor's uncle."

Chu Chenfeng rubbed his head and asked, "Are you scared?"

Chu Jie shook his head, "I know the emperor's uncle will definitely not let anything happen to me."

Chu Chenfeng pulled the people aside and sat down. "King Cheng has my people under his command. When King Cheng wanted to attack you, he was about to do it, but he didn't expect Yuan Ruo and the others to arrive, so he was a step slower."

“Uncle, you don’t need to explain to me. I know everything.” Chu Jie looked at the two people who were sleeping awkwardly and said with a smile, “And I wasn’t scared. Brother Yuanruo and Brother Xiaoqi were protecting me. It was Sister Lan... Auntie Royal who asked them to come.”

Chu Chenfeng's lips curled up into a smile, "Your aunt is worried about you."

"Yes!" Chu Jie raised his little head proudly, "Auntie Huang is the best to me."

Chu Chenfeng couldn't help but rubbed his head again, "There's still some time, take a rest. The emperor's uncle still has things to arrange. There will be a morning court tomorrow, and many things must be resolved. Otherwise, I won't feel at ease going to the border."

Chu Jie nodded obediently, "Uncle, go and do your work. I'm fine."

"it is good."

After Chu Chenfeng left, he took some time to go back to the Regent's Mansion to see Li Mulan. But at this hour, he just stood outside the house and then left.

What he didn't know was that Li Mulan had actually just laid down.

Zhang Yi had just recently told Li Mulan the latest situation, and only now could she sleep peacefully.

As soon as Chu Chenfeng left, Qingyu came out of the room next door. She looked at Chu Chenfeng's back thoughtfully, as if she had made up her mind.

The next day, the court was in a state of panic, and many seats were even empty.

What is going on here? The prime minister has just been arrested, and then King Cheng...what is going on with King Cheng?

Some people who knew the inside story didn't dare to move, and didn't dare to interrupt when they heard people whispering around them.

Last night, an army of one hundred thousand men approached Kyoto, and the Regent personally took part in the battle, thus avoiding a major war.

Chu Chenfeng didn't say a word extra. Ying Yi placed the evidence in front of the court officials one by one, and everyone was shocked.

Oh my God, is this something they can know? Even the death of the previous emperor and the previous crown prince are closely related to King Cheng? This, this, this... Is King Cheng planning to rebel?

Last night, not only the Taifu Mansion was attacked by assassins, but more than a dozen ministers in the court were also assassinated. Fortunately, Chu Chenfeng had made arrangements in advance, and no one was in trouble.

All the evidence was laid out in front of everyone, and no one dared to speak after seeing it.

"Lead him to be the king."

Chu Chenfeng's low voice was about to sound, but the ministers stood there watching, not making a sound.

King Cheng's left hand had been picked up, but the wound was very obvious, with three fingers broken.

Ying Yi stepped forward and said, "King Cheng, you murdered the late emperor, the late crown prince, the late crown princess, and assassinated the emperor with the intention of rebellion; you raised private soldiers and wanted to usurp the throne..."

Ying Yi counted out the ten major crimes of Cheng Wang, and laid out the evidence one by one.

"King Cheng, do you have anything to say?"

King Cheng sneered, looking a little crazy, "If you want to accuse someone of a crime, you can always find a pretext."

Ying Yi walked slowly to the boxes of evidence, neither humble nor arrogant, and said, "Here are all physical evidence, King Cheng can come and take a look. As for the witnesses, the former Prime Minister Xu Tian and those officials who colluded with you have all confessed. If you want to confront them in court, that's fine too."

"Ha, ha ha ha, the winner is the king and the loser is the bandit, I have nothing to say. But do you think you can catch me like this? I tell you, you are dreaming!"

King Cheng looked at Chu Chenfeng with a look of resentment, "Chu Chenfeng, oh Chu Chenfeng, do you think you won?" He looked at the little emperor sitting at the top, "You let a child sit on this seat, and you became the regent. Why? You hold the emperor hostage to control the princes? Then why did you give up the throne so hypocritically? Hahahaha, Chu Chenfeng, you are hypocritical. On the surface, it seems that you don't care about this throne at all, but that's all a false appearance you deliberately acted out."

Chu Chenfeng's expression didn't change at all, he looked at him barking like a stray dog.

"The late emperor... was such a mediocre person, not even as good as me, so why was he able to be emperor? Why can't I? In this world, it is obvious that the capable will be in power. Humph, what is the order of seniority, what is the difference between legitimate and illegitimate children? Did he get the throne so gloriously?"

······

King Cheng cursed in the court for half an hour, and no one spoke. He cursed out all the resentment in his heart over the years, and even revealed a lot of royal secrets. The ministers in the court were all panicked. They didn't want to listen, but they couldn't leave now.

What on earth does this regent want to do? Why let them listen to this?

"Are you done?" Chu Chenfeng slowly stood up, as if he was tired of sitting. "Then do you admit these crimes?"

King Cheng sat down in the hall at this moment, not caring about his image anymore.

"Haha, admit it. I won't admit it now. Is that ok?"

"There is all the evidence, whether you admit it or not won't change anything."

King Cheng sneered, "That may not be the case." His sinister eyes swept across the ministers in the court, and then he smiled sinisterly, "Yesterday, the Regent got married. There were many people who went to his house to drink in the wedding, right? Is there any lord who didn't go?"

The ministers were bewildered by his incoherent questions. What did he mean?

King Cheng showed a determined smile, "Chu Chenfeng, you want to kill me, ha ha ha, I tell you, if you kill me, all your loyal ministers will go to hell, do you believe it?" Then he looked at Chu Chenfeng with interest, "You didn't sleep all night either, right?"

King Cheng glanced at the faces of the ministers one by one, then revealed a playful smile, "You all have been poisoned, hahahaha. Including you, Chu Chenfeng."
