The First National Preceptor of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 448

"Xu Tian, ​​you did all of this. You're trying to pin everything on me. I can't say much, but do you have any evidence?"

He anticipated that Xu Tian would not be able to produce any evidence, so he kept saying that he was willing to submit to the law, but Xu Tian had to produce substantial evidence.

Otherwise, he would never admit it.

He didn't care; admitting it himself would have different consequences than them finding out.

He was certain that they simply couldn't find out anything.

Xu Tian directly submitted a document.

This document is the letter that was exchanged privately between the Minister of Works and the Minister of Works, which alone is enough to prove the Minister of Works' guilt.

Li Er nodded and asked the Minister of Works, "Do you have anything else to say?"

The Minister of Works immediately bowed with his hands clasped.

"I'm innocent, Your Honor! Xu Tian has obtained a fake document to frame me. Please, Your Honor, do me justice!"

Oh my god, Xu Tian was internally devastated.

I've seen shamelessness before, but I've never seen anyone this shameless.

The Minister of Works is utterly shameless.

Even though he has presented evidence, he still refuses to admit it. How thick-skinned does he have to be to do this?

He even dared to cry foul in front of Li Er, shouting that Xu Tian was framing him.

Xu Tian also bowed and said directly to Li Er, "I would like to ask you, sir, to make a handwriting analysis of the Minister of Works and compare it with the handwriting on this document to see if I have truly wronged him."

The Minister of Works had already planned it out. When it came time to compare handwriting, he would simply write a few words, as long as the notes were different.

But to his surprise, Li Er actually took out the documents he had written before and started to compare them.

The Minister of Works was completely bewildered. He thought that he would be asked to compare his own handwriting, but to his surprise, Li Er skipped that step entirely.

The Minister of Works was speechless for a moment.

"Minister of Works, what else do you have to say? The notes here are exactly the same as your previous handwriting. Are you still going to say that this is an imitation of your handwriting?"

The Minister of Works immediately knelt on the ground, saying, "Your Excellency, please understand. I am truly innocent. I don't know why the notes on this are exactly the same as mine. This must have been copied."

Xu Tian simply couldn't believe it. He stared wide-eyed at the Minister of Works in front of him in disbelief.

This guy is so shameless, he can even say that the handwriting is genuine, and that someone else copied it.

Does he really think he's some big shot? He didn't ask anyone to copy his handwriting.

Xu Tian shook his head helplessly in his heart. He had truly experienced the meaning of the saying "a shameless person is invincible" this time.

When he looked at the Minister of Works again, he seemed very disdainful, but the man completely ignored him.

"The Minister of Works says this is someone else's copy of your handwriting. Tell me, is it really possible for someone to write notes so exactly the same?"

Xu Tian questioned the Minister of Works in his tone.

The Minister of Works snorted coldly, "That's for sure. Some people will stop at nothing to frame someone. Xu Tian, ​​have you forgotten how I treated you when you first arrived there?"

"What you're doing now is simply settling a personal score. You repay kindness with enmity, and you know you'll be punished for it."

Not only did he refuse to plead guilty, but he also shifted all the blame onto Xu Tian.

What's most hateful is that he now accuses Xu Tian of repaying kindness with ingratitude.

Xu Tianzhen really didn't know what kind of "repaying kindness with ingratitude" he was doing.

Where does the so-called resentment lie, and when does virtue reside?
