The First National Preceptor of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 879

The Minister of Justice reversed all the details and then informed the Emperor.

above the hall.

Xu Tian explained.

"This woman was originally given to me by the Tenth Prince, but I did nothing to her! In fact, Li Er believed Xu Tian's explanation, but was still poisoned to death!"

Li Er naturally believed in Xu Tian, ​​regardless of the truth of the matter.

He believed that this matter had absolutely nothing to do with Xu Tian.

However, those who disagreed with Xu Tian began to impeach him in various ways.

“Since this woman was poisoned to death in your residence, Your Highness, you cannot escape responsibility.”

"That's right, Your Highness, do you intend to use your authority to deny everything?"

"Does the Prince's statement mean that this didn't happen? Does that mean that from now on, anyone who kills someone can claim they didn't do it?"

"I beg Your Majesty to investigate thoroughly; we cannot allow the people to laugh at us."

Many ministers who were at odds with Xu Tian stepped forward.

They had various reasons, but they all wanted Li Er to punish Xu Tian.

It seemed that they would all be happy as long as Xu Tian was convicted.

Xu Tian was still trying to explain himself.

But how can one person silence all the voices of the people?

So many people stood up to impeach him.

Li Er had no choice but to order the Ministry of Justice to investigate the matter thoroughly.

On Xu Tian's side, Song Ren tried to pull strings everywhere, but Xu Tian was still imprisoned.

"Your Highness, this is nothing but a conspiracy. The princes won't let you off easily. Please take a look at this matter, or you could plead with His Majesty!"

Songren was worried that Li Shen would not let Xu Tian off easily.

Xu Tian also knew that Li Shen would not let him off the hook for this.

But what if you don't let yourself off the hook?

Now that they've started this, they absolutely won't give up on it easily.

Therefore, Xu Tian cannot go out easily.

If this matter cannot be thoroughly investigated, then he will be found guilty of murdering the woman.

Moreover, the woman's family members have now begun to file complaints with the emperor.

If this matter cannot be suppressed, Li Er will have no way to deal with it.

He might even lose his life because of this.

Although Xu Tian was not afraid of death, he could not allow himself to be framed so unclearly.

"Songren, go to that woman's house and investigate this matter thoroughly."

He thought for a moment, then said to Songren, "There must be someone in Li Shen's household who knows about this."

Song Ren nodded in understanding.

But he was worried that Xu Tian was alone here.

"But what about you, Your Highness?"

Hearing Song Ren's words, Xu Tian shook his head.

"Don't worry, I'm fine."

Although Songren was still worried, he was determined to investigate the matter thoroughly.

Only then can Xu Tian be truly rescued.

Songren left.

The Minister of Justice received a bribe from Li Shen's wife, and Li Shen threatened to kill Xu Tian.

"This time, I hope you can do it perfectly and leave no trace."

Before leaving, Li Shen's wife said to the Minister of Justice.

This was their last gamble.

This time, they must put Xu Tian to death.

In addition, the Minister of Justice has always been at odds with Xu Tian.

He also wanted to kill him.

Not only do they share a common goal, but he can also acquire a large sum of money.

Why not?

"Xu Tian, ​​just wait for the knife to be held to your throat, and then snap. Your life has been quite eventful. It's just that you ruined your prime years because of your meddling."

The Minister of Justice revealed a sly smile.
