"The eyes of ordinary people have suffered from a strange disease since the thirteenth year of Changxi. They have been unable to see for a long time, so they dropped out of Qingming and dropped out of school." Tian Liu's voice was full of regret.

"You..." Emperor Tiansheng hesitated for a moment, wondering how this Tian Liu was related to the case.

"Your Majesty." Tian Liu said calmly, "The common man is Li Changyong, who was captured by the Imperial Palace before for bribing the test questions. The common citizen gave a false name to the Imperial Palace."

"Li Changyong are you?" Emperor Tiansheng's eyes flashed - Li Changyong is actually a blind man!

When the Imperial Palace got hold of Li Changyong who was reselling the test questions, he grabbed the test questions sealed with fire paint and looked sneaky in a small alley. Emperor Tiansheng opened the seal and checked it. Judging from the time when the case occurred, Li Changyong could only have just obtained the test questions. That means that from the beginning to the end, no one had ever taken the test questions alone except Gu Nan, who was accused by the Ministry of Punishment of stealing the test questions. Yi, the only one left is Li Changyong. Gu Nanyi has proven that he has never been out. If Li Changyong is blind, it means that the test questions have not been leaked.

Emperor Tian Sheng's expression immediately relaxed. In any case, the test questions had not been leaked, and the Chunwei scandal that shocked the world would no longer exist, and the face and reputation of the imperial court had been somewhat maintained.

There are just some things I still can’t figure out, such as why Tian Liu gave a false name and how he ended up in Wei Zhi’s hands. Shouldn’t this be a witness for Peng Pei and others? And the real Li Changyong...

His eyes turned to Li Changyong, who was a tough man. Although he was dressed as a scholar, his face was full of sinisterness, his eyes were darting around, and he was full of charlatanism. He was restless even when he was kneeling on the ground, always turning his head this way and that. , Zong Chen has been standing behind him, guarding him tightly.

Feng Zhiwei did not look at Li Changyong, but just stared at several people in the hall. Since Li Changyong appeared, the expressions of Peng Pei and the second prince and the seventh prince had not changed. However, Grand Scholar Wu, who had just attacked her, suddenly lowered his head and started drinking tea.

At this glance, I knew clearly. Sure enough, this matter was not done by one person. It should be done by several people, each responsible for a link, playing the role of confidentiality and mutual supervision. However, because of this, the overall situation is unclear, but instead Gave her a loophole.

"Li Changyong." Zong Chen kicked lightly and said, "Let your Majesty tell you who you are and why you are here."

Li Changyong trembled all over, and glanced at Grand Scholar Wu again. However, he was concentrating on drinking tea without raising his head. The corners of his mouth trembled, thinking of the strange and strange ways of hurting people behind him, he swallowed and said helplessly: "The younger one...the younger one's name is Li Changyong...from Dijing. He lives on Baiya Street, Xinghua Bridge, South Gate of the Imperial Capital...The younger one's family originally had a small income and was considered a wealthy family, but he was addicted to gambling and owed money. He had a gambling debt, and the creditor came to demand the debt, which made the baby in the house cry and scream, and the old woman also hanged herself... The young man felt anxious, took a knife and ran to the creditor's house, preparing a red knife to go in and a white knife to come out, and he was going to die. What a pleasure... I was stopped by someone in the alley outside Xinghua Bridge... I told Xiao Xiao... You are going to die anyway, and your death must be worth it... As long as I am on the west side of Donglou Street at the time of the second night. Waiting in the Erhutong to pick up something, and then walk to the vicinity of Beisi Alley within the designated time. If you are caught by the Imperial Palace... just say that I bought it from the Ministry of Rites through a connection... After the matter is completed, give it to my family A thousand taels of silver, buy a big house for my mother-in-law and children on Jianghuai Road..."

At this time, the Qingming students who were originally listening outside had received Feng Zhiwei’s hint and were relieved to disperse. The heads of various departments could no longer mix in and listen to the trial, so they also left quietly. These people knew that they would not be allowed to go on. After listening to everything, the reason why Emperor Tiansheng let them in before was because more and more people were gathering on the streets outside, fearing that things would get out of hand. Now if they continue to listen and hear something that cannot be ended, it will be bad.

As a result, the whole hall gradually became quiet, and a depressing and stiff atmosphere arose. Emperor Tiansheng half-squinted his eyes, listening to Li Changyong's explanation. There was no emotion or anger in his eyes. He didn't say a word for a long time, and everyone was worried. Looking at him uneasily, not knowing what the old emperor was feeling at the moment, Ning Yi was the only one who didn't look at his face and only lowered his eyes slightly on his fingers.

The fingers of Emperor Tiansheng, covered by the wide sleeves of his robe, were shaking spasmodically.

Ning Yi's eyes flashed, knowing that the emperor was not silent, but that he was so angry that he was temporarily speechless.

"Li Changyong!" He said immediately, "Since you accepted this deal, how come you are now under the control of Mr. Wei?"

"I... I don't know..." Li Changyong said with a sad face, "I went on time that night. When I arrived at Xier Hutong, Donglou Street, someone came over and asked: 'What is your surname?' The little one answered, and was knocked unconscious immediately... After that, he was locked in a dark room... The little one didn't know what happened..."

"Your Majesty." Feng Zhi sneered slightly, stepped forward and said, "These two can be regarded as Weichen's witnesses, but they don't know the ins and outs of it. Let Weichen give it to you at once. Please explain."

Only at this moment did Emperor Tiansheng come to his senses. He glanced at Peng Pei, who had already turned pale, and said in a deep voice, "Say it!"

“Things started when Wei Chen took over the Ministry of Rites.” Feng Zhiwei said, “The first thing Wei Chen did when he took over the Ministry of Rites was to have people clean up the documents and files left by the previous Minister. In a secret room at the end, I found a strange list."

Emperor Tian Sheng’s expression changed and he immediately asked: “What list?”

"Wei Chen doesn't know either." Feng Zhiwei said, "Only some numbers were simply written on it, including the person's surname and place of origin. For example, the first line, Wei Chen remembered, was Ten Thousand, Wang, Qu Yang, A few words."

Emperor Tiansheng’s face became a little more ugly, and he glanced at Feng Zhiwei, “Where’s the list?”

Feng Zhiwei stared into his eyes and said slowly: "I don't know what this list of ministers is, but I felt it was suspicious and didn't feel safe leaving it in the study, so I took it back to the mansion. That night, there was a fire in the mansion of the minister. I was snatched out by my servants and the list was placed in the bedroom. I don’t know if it was burned."

Emperor Tiansheng pondered for a moment and said: "Your mansion was burned so badly that I'm afraid I won't be able to stay here."
