However!
Since his son was involved, Wang Jian naturally would not stand by and watch.
"I understand this point better than you, Minister Feng.”
Wang Jian said," I'm not going to lie to Your Majesty. I came here because I received a letter from my son, Wang Ben. I heard that Wang Ben and Li Si have been imprisoned.”
"That's right."
" Rest assured, Old General," Ying Zheng said." Although Wang Ben is locked up in prison, he has never been tortured or starved.”
"My son is foolish, I have troubled Your Majesty.”
Wang Jian said," I heard that it was my son and Li Si who discovered Zhao Gao's rebellion, so they set up a trap together. However, this matter alarmed His Majesty. This is truly a bastard!”
"Eh?"
Hearing Wang Jian's words, Feng Quji's expression changed." Marquis Wucheng, you must be mistaken.”
"What's wrong?"
"It's not a deliberate trap. It's clearly Li Si and Zhao Gao who have ill intentions and are planning to rebel! Your son, Wang Ben, and Li Si are accomplices, and I'm afraid they're involved in this too! Marquis Wucheng, you are loyal to Great Qin, so you can't be careless about this!”
"Prime Minister Feng needs evidence when he speaks."
Wang Jian said calmly," Wang Ben said in the letter that they had discovered Zhao Gao's disloyalty, so they set up this trap to prevent alerting the enemy. After that, they didn't wait for them to explain clearly before they were imprisoned. How could they be determined to be plotting a rebellion together?”
"Hehe, I heard that when Li Si was captured, he said that he colluded with Zhao Gao and only wanted to die quickly. How can such a person be wronged?”
Feng Quji said," Marquis Wucheng's words are too far-fetched!”
"Minister Feng, did you personally see the three of them conspire, or did you personally see Li Si being taken down?”
"This…"
Feng Quji was stunned when he heard that. He then said," Although I didn't see it, but..."
"You didn't see it, but why do you keep saying that what I said was far-fetched?”
Wang Jian said," Since you and I have never seen it with our own eyes, we can only say that it is just a guess! Why don't we let His Majesty bring the two of them up and ask them?”
"If we interrogate them, these two will definitely deny it and crazily quibble!”
Feng Quji said," Don't even think about it!”
"You don't know the truth, so why do you only say that it's a quibble?”
Wang Jian said," Ask clearly. If it's the truth, then there's no point in quibbling! If he was wronged, could it be that Minister Feng thought that he was the head of all officials and that he was wronged? As a role model for all officials, I feel ashamed for you!”
"You…"
Feng Quji was furious and speechless. As the Right Prime Minister, even the Imperial Censor who supervised the officials did not dare to humiliate him like this.
However, who asked the other party to be Wang Jian?
Wang Jian was completely qualified to not even put Feng Quji in his eyes!
"Alright."
Ying Zheng smiled and said," Then bring Wang Ben and Li Si here and interrogate them carefully. If they are really wronged, we can't kill the ministers and make the officials feel disappointed. If they really wanted to rebel, even if they were eloquent, they would give themselves away.”
"Yes!"
When Wang Jian heard this, he cupped his fists and said," Your Majesty's divine grace is so perceptive. This old subject is extremely impressed!”
“……”
Feng Quji nodded helplessly.
"Men, summon Wang Ben and Li Si.”
"Yes!"
Soon, Wang Ben and Li Si were summoned into the palace. Both of them were handcuffed, and they were walking in a loud noise.
Wang Ben was walking straight as usual, as if the shackles did not affect him much.
However, Li Si was different. Not only did he look more haggard, but he was also unable to straighten his back from the pressure of the handcuffs.
"Your Majesty, I, Wang Ben, pay my respects!"
"I, Li Si, pay my respects to Your Majesty."
"Li Si, Wang Ben, do you know your crimes?”
When he saw the two of them, Feng Quji immediately shouted," You have wild ambitions and your crimes cannot be punished. If you still have a trace of your duty as a subject, you must not deny and deceive His Majesty today!”
"Minister Feng is right."
" Of course, we are loyal to His Majesty!" Wang Ben said.”
"The center?"
Feng Quji sneered," Wang Ben, I thought you were a loyal and filial man, but I didn't expect you to be so cunning! Tell me, how did you get tricked by Li Si and help him?”
What the f * ck?
Hearing Feng Quji's words, even Ying Zheng himself was stunned.
Feng Quji's brain was really fast.
In order to kill Li Si, Wang Ben immediately told Li Si that Wang Ben was tricked by Li Si.
In this way, Wang Ben's crimes would be easily cleared, and nothing would happen to him.
Unfortunately, Feng Quji was wrong about one thing.
This was because Wang Ben had been ordered by Ying Zheng himself, and unless he could achieve his goal and release Li Si, he would not be able to do so.
Otherwise, he definitely wouldn't have changed his mind halfway.
"Minister Feng is mistaken…"
" Minister Li and I heard about Zhao Gao's rebellion, so we decided to set up a trap for His Majesty's safety."”
"Nonsense!"
Feng Qu shouted," If that's the case, then why did Li Si claim that he was deceived by Zhao Gao when he was captured and beg for death?”
"Sinners…"
When Li Si heard this, he swallowed and said," I suspected that Zhao Gao had other accomplices, so I pretended. I didn't expect Minister Feng to hold onto this."”
What the f * ck?
Hearing this, Feng Quji was stunned.
How could he come up with such an excuse?
Naturally, this excuse wasn't Li Si's idea, but Ying Zheng's own, and then asked Wang Ben to pass it on to Li Si.
Why did he throw Wang Ben's marquis into prison?
His purpose was to get Wang Ben to tell Li Si that His Majesty would find a way to save his life, and that he had to make up for his sins and serve His Majesty.
When Li Si heard that, he was moved to tears.
He didn't expect that His Majesty would still think so highly of him after he made such a huge mistake.
