However, what Cheng Yaojin did not know was that while he was rushing to the palace, many officials had already gathered at the Second Prince's residence.
Among them, Zhangsun Wuji was among them!
"Chengqian!" "This is a great opportunity!" Zhangsun Wuji said faintly.”
"We received news that Li Qiu and Cheng Yaojin killed a cow today! Moreover, it was very likely that he had eaten beef before!”
"Right now, we have already sent people to look for concrete evidence. Once we find evidence that they killed and cooked the cow, we can launch an attack in one fell swoop and make it impossible for Li Qiu to sit firmly on the position of Crown Prince!”
"After that, in terms of identity, status, knowledge, and supporters, you are the first to take up the responsibility. Moreover, as the eldest son, the position of Crown Prince is none other than you!”
What?
After Li Chengqian heard Zhangsun Wuji's words, he instantly felt a headache coming on!
F * ck your grandpa!
You want me to die!
I can do anything, but you want me to be the Crown Prince? Half a day ago, I was still laughing at Li Tai, and now it's my turn?
Moreover, the person behind him was only 70% to 80% confident. Yet, you directly said that it was mine?
I'll f * cking thank your entire family, alright?
Li Chengqian was about to cry…
"This…"
He smiled bitterly and said," Blood is thicker than water. Big Brother Li Qiu is very extraordinary. He also has unrivaled martial arts. The position of Crown Prince was originally his. Is it…"
"Nonsense!"
Zhangsun Wuji glared at him.”
"The royal family, where did this kinship come from?"
"Besides, we're not framing him! It's that Li Qiu kid seeking his own death. He even dared to eat cattle. If you don't report him, then you're not reporting!”
"But isn't there no evidence?" It was just a guess. Who could be sure that they had really eaten beef?”
"Report!"
As soon as he finished speaking, someone rushed in and knelt on one knee. He said anxiously,"According to our investigation, we can confirm that His Highness the Crown Prince once bought a cow from an old farmer for a hundred taels of silver!”
"Then, we found traces of rebellion near the place where he bought the cattle. We also found cowhide, ox horns, and other things.”
"It is almost certain that after the Crown Prince bought the cattle, he killed them and even cruelly cooked them to eat!”
Li Chengqian: !!!”
Zhangsun Wuji laughed out loud. Your chance is here! This is great news!"
"Quick, bring this news and go see His Majesty immediately! Remember, you must tell the truth and not add any embellishment. At this time, telling the truth would make you seem extraordinary!”
"As long as His Majesty learns of this news, he will naturally send people to investigate. At that time, even if Li Qiu doesn't die, he will lose a layer of skin!”
"Let's see how he can sit steadily on the position of Crown Prince!”
……
"Sigh!"
At the entrance of the royal study, Li Chengqian was in a dilemma.
Report Li Qiu? If he had such an opportunity a few days ago, he would definitely not let it go.
But now?
He really didn't want to go!
Who would want to be the crown prince? Anyway, I'm not willing to be one!
However…the elders of his family had repeatedly recommended him and given him a death order. Many supporters had also expressed their stance…
Hence, Li Chengqian still came!
However, he stood at the door of the royal study and did not enter.
He really didn't know what to say…
It wasn't impossible to report Li Qiu, but what if the Crown Prince's item landed on his head after he reported it?
Just as Li Chengqian was hesitating, he saw Cheng Yaojin rushing over…
" Second Prince?!"
Seeing Li Chengqian, Cheng Yaojin's heart instantly widened, and he secretly thought that something bad was going to happen…
When Li Chengqian saw Cheng Yaojin, he felt a great headache.
According to his investigation, he already knew that Cheng Yaojin was one of the people who ate beef with Li Qiu. However, this guy couldn't hide his secrets.
In other words…
Even if I don't report Li Qiu, Cheng Yaojin will tell me everything. At that time, I might still be able to inherit the position of Crown Prince.
艹!
I don't want it!
Li Chengqian was about to cry!
Then, he made up his mind to go in with Cheng Yaojin. That way, if things didn't work out, he might be able to say a few words...
……
"Your Majesty, General Cheng and the Second Prince request an audience.”
In the royal study, Li Er, who had received the news, was a little surprised."How did the two of them get together? Let them in!"
"Your Majesty…"
Cheng Yaojin knelt down on one knee and smiled bitterly."This minister is guilty. This minister has specially come to surrender.”
When Li Chengqian saw this, he instantly glared in his heart and secretly thought that something bad was going to happen.
F * ck! He knew it was true. Was this old man really here to confess?
No, you're trying to kill me!
Li Chengqian wailed in his heart. Unfortunately, Cheng Yaojin naturally could not hear him.
"Oh?"
Li Er was stunned when he heard this. He put down the book in his hand and helped Cheng Yaojin up."You and I are as close as brothers, so why do you have to do this?”
"Just tell me what mistake you made. Why are you panicking?”
"This…"
Cheng Yaojin smiled helplessly.”
"What?"
Li Er's expression gradually changed. If it was an ordinary mistake, Li Er would naturally not care. However…the crime of beheading was not a light crime!
"Which crime did you commit?"
Li Er was also anxious.
If it wasn't a big deal, he could pretend that nothing had happened, but if Cheng Yaojin caused too much trouble, he was afraid…
"I…ate a carp without knowing it!”
Cheng Yaojin laughed bitterly…
"What?"!”
"You…how dare you!"
In an instant, Li Er roared angrily, and Cheng Yaojin lowered his head,""Are you going to eat me too?”
" I dare not…" Cheng Yaojin lowered his head even more.
At this moment, Li Chengqian, who was thinking about how to absolve Cheng Yaojin and Li Qiu of their crimes, nearly spat out a mouthful of blood!
" F * ck!?"
Damn you!
I thought that you guys were already very scary after eating beef, but you f * cking told me that you guys even ate carp?!
Why aren't you guys heaven-defying?
Even if you want to die, this isn't how you do it, alright?
At this moment, Li Chengqian was on the verge of tears!
Originally, the world was unpredictable. A few days ago, he had wanted to kill Li Qiu. Now, he was trying to clear Li Qiu's name by all means. It was already very painful.
In the end, you guys are really not afraid of death!!!
Li Er's face was ashen as he said coldly,"If not for our past relationship, I would definitely kill you!”
(Votes!!!)
