The two words “slow down” made Cheng Wang’s heart sink.

Although internally he was not afraid of Emperor Hong Xiao, in the presence of civil and military officials, he must not denounce Emperor Hong Xiao’s opinion. Obviously, Emperor Hong Xiao at this moment was partial towards Jiang Li. Though he was aware that Emperor Hong Xiao wanted to use the Xue’s case to implicate Princess Yongning, at present, Jiang Li’s way of speaking truly could make people convinced.

Sense and reason, to wash Xue Huaiyuan’s guilt, “reason” was not enough, “feelings” need to also be there. However, Jiang Li used such a method that others were unable to reject. Step by step washing the injustice on Xue Huaiyuan.

The cabinet ministers who understood this clearly looked at Jiang Li with strangeness. This palace discussion really took the breath of the people watching away.

Jiang Yuan Bai also stared at his own daughter as if he did not recognize her. He knew Jiang Li was clever, within the younger generation of the Jiang family, Jiang Li was possibly the most intelligent one. However, such a court ability was rather excessive. Jiang Yuan Bai even felt doubt in his heart, had someone directed Jiang Li’s way of handling things today? Otherwise, a noble lady with such a political method was an impossibility.

Others would not think that this was the method Jiang Li thought of and only assumed that this was something Jiang Yuan Bai had come up with. Believing that Jiang Yuan Bai let Jiang Li speak like this in the palace hall, their recognition of Jiang Yuan Bai’s strategy went up a notch and they thought, Jiang Yuan Bai is really cunning.

“Continue speaking.” Emperor Hong Xiao said to Jiang Li.

Jiang Li bowed, her voice crisp as she said, “The words this female subject wanted to say have been said. Tongxiang county deputy Xue Huaiyuan is guilty, guilty that in the 10 years he was in office, aside from corrupting the disaster relief silver, he has lived a simple life with few desires, washed his hands and devoted to his duties, his heart as a courtier was like water, pure and honest, with moral integrity. It’s rare for such a corrupt official to exist in this world, he was definitely coming up with an even darker plan. There was little wealth in the family, their whereabouts unknown. This female subject thinks Xue Huaiyuan’s guilt is unpardonable and sincerely requests His Majesty to punish Xue Huaiyuan by hacking him to pieces!”

Right Prime Minister Li Zhong Nan shut his eyes, knowing the words Jiang Li said have thoroughly washed Xue Huaiyuan’s crimes.

Reversing the truth, reversing the truth, Jiang Li’s reversal of the truth could be said outstanding, making people unable to dispute.

There was a long silence in the hall.

After a long time, Emperor Hong Xiao’s voice rang out. He said, “As such, Xue Huaiyuan is not guilty, but instead meritorious. The guilt of a minister who has made five meritorious contributions deepened, perhaps there may be grievances. In Feng Yu Tang’s case, he is undoubtedly found guilty. Xue Huaiyuan’s corruption is a strong doubtful point. Zhou De Zhao, “I” want you to once again investigate this case thoroughly!”

When the last word fell to the ground, Jiang Li’s heart seemed to be poured with hot water, gradually boiling.

However, she just bowed down and said, “This female subject once again earnestly requests for Tongxiang county deputy to be brought into the palace hall. Xie Huaiyuan is also a witness, Your Majesty might as well first see Xue county deputy’s current appearance.”

“Bring Xue Huaiyuan in.” Emperor Hong Xiao spoke.

Zhou De Zhao hurriedly asked a person to bring Xue Huaiyuan over and couldn’t help glancing at Jiang Li. In the matter today, it was evident that Cheng Wang and the Right Minister were winning at the beginning. But up to now, Jiang Li had been leading by the nose. Regardless of whether the methods were thought of by Jiang Li or Jiang Yuan Bai, the Jiang family must not be underestimated. At first he thought that in the imperial court, the Jiang family’s influence had weakened, especially with the Right Minister continuing to expand his strength. By the look of it now, a scrawny camel is still bigger than a horse. Leaving aside influence, based on this scheme alone, Jiang Yuan Bai did not lose to the Right Prime Minister in the slightest.

If this continued, it’s unknown who would lose in the end. It’s over, they, who enjoyed watching the lively scenes, probably had to one again change their steps for the future.

Xue Huaiyuan was quickly brought over.

He was changed into clean clothes and his face was washed clean. His hands tightly gripped a rattle drum. The imperial bodyguards protected Emperor Hong Xiao to prevent Xue Huaiyuan from injuring him. However, when Xue Huaiyuan saw so many people, he panicked and shrank into a ball, then helplessly ran towards Jiang Li.

Jiang Li patted Xue Huaiyuan’s shoulders to placate him. Although his age was similar to Jiang Yuan Bai, Xue Huaiyuan’s hair had turned all white, and he looked like an old man. Thus Jiang Li’s action did not seem improper. However, her patience looked harsh in Jiang Yuan Bai’s eyes.

He always felt that Jiang Li had never seen him, this biological father, with such a soft gaze.

Xue Huaiyuan clearly depended on Jiang Li very much. After he was beside Jiang Li, he no longer made a fuss and quietly played with the rattle drum in his hand.

Jiang Li said to Emperor Hong Xiao, “Your Majesty, this is Tongxiang county deputy, Xue Huaiyuan. Because he was imprisoned by Feng Yu Tang and was tortured inside, his mind has become unclear, just like a child. Pity the generation of honest and faithful officials, now ended up like this. If this goes out, how many honest and faithful officials in this world will be bitterly disappointed, and how many people will be faithful and true, vow loyalty and devotion to Your Majesty?”

“Audacious!” Li Zhong Nan shouted angrily, “Jiang Li, you dare to question His Majesty!”

“Master Li, “ Jiang Yuan Bai said with displeasure, “His Majesty has not spoken, what words are you spouting.”

Jiang Li’s words could be regarded as disrespectful. Cheng Wang sneered, “It seems that Master Jiang teaches his daughter with his own set of rules. The words Miss Jiang second said, as a female, have overstepped the bounds of what is proper, right?!”

Jiang Yuan Bai dared to shout at Li Zhong Nan openly and without fear, but it was not good to do so at Cheng Wang. As he was hesitating how to speak, Duke Su, who had been quiet all along, opened his mouth.

Ji Heng shook his fan and lightly said with a smile, “Coincidentally, I have the same view as Miss Jiang second’s statement.”

Just this one sentence stunned the court officials. Since Ji Heng spoke up, did it mean he was helping Jiang Li speak?

Even though this Duke Su always paid attention to his appearance, he was not someone who had tender feelings for females. To save a girl from water and fire was an even more impossible thing. As it happened, at this time, Duke Su unexpectedly faced Cheng Wang, and he still said such words with deep meaning.
