Zhang Guozhang has been scared to shiver and wants to shake his head and say that he has nothing to say, but this is the last opportunity for the Empress Dowager to give him an excuse. However, what else can he say?
Such an obvious crime of deceiving the monarch occurred in the court in full view of all the officials. Can he still explain it?
Princess Li didn't know why, but she knew it in her heart. She was afraid that something happened that she didn't know. So she gave her father Zhang Guozhang a look of inquiry. Zhang Guozhang had no choice but to bow his head.
Huo Mingzhu said at the moment: "it's really troublesome. Zhang Guozhang's words are full of lies. Just now, AI Jia asked if he had given the emperor medicine. He also mentioned the word loyalty. If AI Jia hadn't found this in Li Guifei's palace, AI Jia wouldn't have dared to test your loyalty to your father and daughter with such techniques."
Huo Mingzhu suddenly angrily threw a package of things to the hall.
Princess Li saw that it was her handkerchief. She naturally knew what was under the handkerchief, which was the medicine given to the emperor!
As a result, Li Guifei pointed to Zhang Guozhang and said, "empress dowager, this is all planned by her father. It has nothing to do with my concubine. My concubine was forced to take the medicine, but I didn't do anything to the emperor. As for how the emperor took the medicine, I don't know!"
As soon as Zhang Guozhang heard that Princess Li had pushed him out to be a ghost for death, he told everything directly. As soon as he finished, he fell down on the ground with pale face and sat down, letting the officials point at him.
Huo Mingzhu did not continue to focus on their father and daughter, but called to Zou Danzi: "where is Zou Danzi?"
"Weichen is here." Zou Danzi rushed out.
"Do you know sin?" Huo Mingzhu is always straightforward.
Zou Danzi naturally refused to admit it. Moreover, Zou Danzi was more cunning than Zhang's father and daughter. He wiped out all the clues, and Huo Mingzhu could not get hold of him.
However, Huo Mingzhu did not put the matter on his head, but took out a letter from his sleeve and gave it to Cao An.
Cao An slowly unfolded and read the contents in a sharp voice.
This letter was found on Su Wenqing, and it was stained with Su Wenqing's blood. The more Cao An read it, the paler Zou Danzi's face became. After reading it, the court was silent.
Huo Mingzhu looked around and said with a smile to the officials, "Zou Aiqing has given a big gift to AI Jia. The AI Jia must give Zou Aiqing a big gift."
Having said that, a eunuch sent a bunch of letters to Zou Danzi. Zou Danzi opened one of them and looked at it. His face changed.
It turns out that most of his wives and concubines in his backyard have been related to Su Wenqing. Since Zou Danzi's eldest son is also su Wenqing's own flesh and blood, this is an unprecedented big green hat. He has lost face.
Huo Mingzhu saw Zou Danzi's face and knew that she didn't know about it. She said with a smile, "Zou Aiqing, are you satisfied with the return gift from AI's family?"
When they saw Huo Mingzhu's face, they were almost paralyzed. They could not help but kneel down on the ground. Huo Mingzhu wanted this effect. Later, when they heard Huo Mingzhu's name, they had to be more restrained, otherwise they would suffer.
After a long silence, Baili Jingqi suddenly said, "Zou Danzi, you know the sin!"
Zou Danzi's feet softened.
