The General is Pregnant: His Majesty Abstinence and Sexual Devotion Every Night

Chapter 92 Chen San

Gu Junqing briefly recounted everything she knew today.

Qi Yunjin sat opposite her and listened attentively. After she finished speaking, he raised his deep, dark peach blossom eyes. There was no emotion in his eyes. He just glanced at her calmly:

"Oh? So General Gu wants to know what Chen Yu left behind before he died, right?"

She nodded, looking at him with her beautiful, sparkling eyes, waiting for his next words.

"After the Dali Temple officially opens the trial, I will send someone to hand it over to you."

Qi Yunjin avoided her burning gaze and spoke calmly.

The two of them played chess for the rest of the time, and stayed here for another hour before Gu Junqing returned home. The case of whether the Zhen family was the mastermind behind the secret hiding of the military pay sent to the border by the Qi Dynasty, and the Chen family was an accomplice, was overturned and tried today——

The emperor personally presided over the trial in the Hall of Supreme Harmony where court officials held court.

For a moment, the Hall of Supreme Harmony was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.

Until a eunuch brought a group of people to the center of the Hall of Supreme Harmony. The ministers were arranged on the left and right, and the position in the middle was just right.

Gu Junqing was standing at the front right. When he heard the noise, he looked behind him like everyone else.

Zhen Qingyi stood in front, and behind him were the people he led. It was said that these people were the ones who participated and witnessed the event back then. Behind them were several eunuchs, holding things similar to account books and other items in their hands.

She had already finished reading it all yesterday, so she just glanced at it and then looked away.

Then, as if with a casual glance, he looked to his left front. Prince An, like everyone else, also turned his head. At this time, he looked at the group of people led by Zhen Qingyi without changing his expression. His tears were as calm as a pool of stagnant water. He looked calm and indifferent, as if all this really had nothing to do with him.

Gu Junqing turned his head away and couldn't help sneering in his heart, wondering if Prince Hui'an could still maintain his calm attitude.

The people in the center first knelt down and kowtowed to the emperor. Qi Yunjin wanted to ask them to stand up, but as soon as he finished speaking, there was no movement from the people below.

Qi Yunjin looked at Zhen Qingyi who was kneeling in front of him, and suddenly realized what he meant. His eyes flickered, but he didn't say much. Just kneel down if you want to.

"Your Majesty, the son of a guilty minister, Zhen Qingyi, will judge the injustice for our Zhen family today. I hope Your Majesty will allow the common people to speak out about their grievances next!"

Qi Yunjin nodded, his voice still calm, but the ministers below dared not say a word.

"Said" The emperor has always been frugal with words.

Zhen Qingyi took a book from a eunuch. He did not open it, but placed the book flat on his palms and faced the emperor, obviously wanting to give it to the emperor to read personally.

Seeing this, Li Yuan glanced at the emperor. Seeing Qi Yunjin looking at what was in Zhen Qingyi's hand, he hurried over, took the book, and then handed it to the emperor with both hands flat.

Qi Yunjin flipped through the pages nonchalantly, while Zhen Qingyi below him was also narrating in an orderly manner:

"I found this account book by chance. It records the dirty business dealings between the Chen and Zhen families and their gradual confrontation. Your Majesty, please take a look at it."

Qi Yunjin lowered his eyes and looked carefully at the account book in his hand. It was clearly marked. There was a character "Zhen" under the character "Chen". It was obvious that this was the account book for comparison with the Zhen family's monthly accounts.

Moreover, there is a word "Chen" written in a very fast and graceful handwriting on the cover of this book. This account book looks quite old, and the footers are all torn, and some pages are even missing half a page.

It is clearly written above that the Zhen family is superior to the Chen family in terms of monthly financial comparison, and the source of the money is also legitimate.

He remembered that the business acumen of the head of the Zhen family was far superior to that of the head of the Chen family, and his vision was also longer-term, so it was no wonder that the Zhen family deliberately embarrassed the Chen family.

What's more, if the Chen family had not relied on the cooperation with the Zhen family back then, they might not have been able to maintain the title of the second richest family in Suzhou at that time.

When he turned to the end, he saw that the Chen family was showing signs of overpowering the Zhen family. Qi Yunjin glanced at the date and saw that it was just a few days after Prince An arrived in Suzhou.

The source of the Chen family's funds was not clearly marked as in the previous pages, but was left blank, with only an amount added in, which made people suspect that the source of the money was not legitimate.

Turning to the last page, Qi Yunjin closed the account book and handed it to Li Yuan who was standing beside him. Then he glanced at the calm Prince An with his deep black eyes, then turned his eyes and looked straight at Zhen Qingyi and asked, "What can these represent?"

Zhen Qingyi lowered his head: "The ending is enough to show that the Chen family was wrong back then"

The emperor and Zhen Qingyi were talking about their own things, as if they were playing a riddle. Many ministers looked at each other, none of them understood what the two were talking about, so someone couldn't help but stand up and ask:

"Your Majesty, may I ask what this commoner meant by this?"

It was the Minister of Personnel, Cai Wenjing.

The emperor did not answer, but threw the right to speak to Zhen Qingyi.

Zhen Qingyi raised his head and saw the emperor staring at him. In his peripheral vision, Gu Junqing and Zhao Zhi were also looking at him.

He pursed his lips, then raised his voice and loudly recounted the matter about the account book.

This time all the ministers heard it, thought about it, and understood it.

For a moment, all the ministers focused their eyes on the face of Prince An, who had been silent since the beginning of the court. There was still no expression on his face, even though so many people were looking at his face and observing him.

After Zhen Qingyi finished his explanation, he mentioned the name of a middle-aged man kneeling behind him, and then he also told who he was originally and what he was doing back then.

"Chen San was the son of the old housekeeper of the Chen Mansion. He worked as the personal servant of the Chen family master for a few years. Later, the housekeeper found a reason for the Chen family master to let his son leave the mansion and marry and have children."

"Chen San was quite trusted by the Chen family master, so he was in charge of the account book, and he also waited on the side while the Chen family master was writing."

"And one day, when he was helping Master Chen grind ink, he clearly remembered that Master Chen often exchanged letters with someone unknown during those days, and the correspondence took place at midnight every day. He was on guard at that time, so Chen San handed the letter to Master Chen, who had already gone to bed."

"Usually he can only see the beginning of the letter, and he doesn't know what's next."

Zhen Qingyi said this and glanced at Chen San who was kneeling behind him.

Chen San was already nervous, but Zhen Qingyi told him before he came that as long as he watched him act, nothing bad would happen and his life would be saved, so when Zhen Qingyi glanced at him sideways.

Chen San immediately shuddered all over and knelt straight down, but his voice was still shaking.
