Li Shimin felt his hands trembling slightly.

This bastard, under such circumstances, dares to say such words!

"Okay, your majesty, you have heard that the Duke of Zhao County himself admitted that the 82 people of the Cui clan in Boling were the ones he ordered to kill."

"I have pity that my Cui family has more than 80 lives, but I was killed by this man. Please ask your Majesty to make the decision for my Boling Cui family."

Censor Cui didn't expect that Zhao Chen, who could save his life immediately, suddenly admitted to killing Cui Yan.

The reversal of things was that even he was stunned for a while.

This will bring relief, and it will be impossible to directly correct Zhao Chen on the spot.

On the contrary, the official who had called him fiercely before was not talking at this moment.

Any normal person, under the protection of the emperor, will not take the initiative to send his life out if he can save his life.

But Zhao Chen really did that.

After the emperor announced that he would let him go, he voluntarily admitted that he had sent someone to kill Cui Yan.

No one understood this kind of life-deserving operation.

But what everyone understands is that as soon as Zhao Chen said just now, it already determines his final destiny.

Even if he is an emperor, he cannot save his life.

"Zhao Chen, what do you want to do?" Wei Zheng looked at Zhao Chen, his eyes full of disappointment.

"Doctor Wei, I was indeed instructed to kill people, but Zhao Chen was forced to do nothing." Zhao Chen bowed to Wei Zheng.

Wei Zheng frowned, wondering what Zhao Chen meant.

It was just because he knew that Cui Yan was going to send someone to assassinate him, so he started to take action first, which was simply unreasonable.

"Cui Yan's so-called death letter is just a means to hide his crimes. At the same time on the night when Cui Yan died, Cui Yan sent fifty assassins."

"Fifty assassins?"

"Zhao Chen, now, can you still forcefully make a judgment?" Cui Yushi scolded coldly.

Today he has no way out. If Zhao Chen doesn't die, he will have no way out.

If the fuss is like this, the emperor will not let him go!

"Each of these fifty assassins held a crossbow arrow in their hands. At one moment, they set out from the ambush site and arrived outside Wannian County at three o'clock."

"If I hadn't prepared in advance, I would have died that day, Zhao Chen, my wife Li Ruoshuang, or more than 100 villagers in Wannian County."

"I just don't know, if I, Zhao Chen, died, would there be so many adults today to seek justice for me, Zhao Chen!" Zhao Chen smiled and turned around and asked the ministers.

No one looked at him.

They knew very well that if Zhao Chen died, it would be impossible for this to happen today.

"Zhao Chen, this is just your family's words. We need to see the evidence. Otherwise, even if you say it out loud today, you will never be able to escape death." An official said.

"Yes, Censor Cui has produced evidence, and you, Zhao Chen, will only be speechless?"

"All nonsense? Evidence?" Zhao Chen smiled and turned around and bowed to Empress Changsun: "Don't worry, Empress, Zhao Chen never talks nonsense. This evidence will be available immediately."

At the court meeting today, Zhao Chen originally thought that he would leave the court as soon as possible.

At that time, it would be great to take Li Ruoshuang, Uncle Fu and others away, leave Chang'an, and go somewhere else to be a rich man.

So he let everyone scold him and didn't say anything.

Because there is no definite evidence for this matter, Zhao Chen was at most deprived of his title and his life could still be saved.

The only thing Zhao Chen did not expect was that Old Li was so decisive to save himself.

The old Li head at that moment was very real.

Even he accepted the infamy!

He just wanted to save Zhao Chen's life.

Old Li still cared about him very much, and Empress Changsun's performance even scared Xiao Lizhi to tears.

These two are the two elders who care about them the most in this Tang Dynasty.

If he just left like this, how should Zhao Chen deal with himself in the future?

"Zhao Chen, I warn you that if you can't provide evidence, I will break your limbs and let you stay in the palace for the rest of your life to pour me foot wash water!" Li Shimin sat back on his seat expressionlessly.

The seemingly ruthless words actually wanted to save Zhao Chen's life.

"There is a guard beside Cui Yan, the leader of these fifty assassins. He was the captain of the army. After the assassination failed, this man thought of committing suicide and was taken by my people."

"Now, this person is outside, please let His Majesty let him in." Zhao Chen said slowly, bowing to Li Shimin.

Li Shimin looked at Zhao Chen deeply and didn't say anything.

With a wave of his hand, a eunuch went out to pass the order.

After a few breaths, a man came to the hall with disheveled face and his hands and feet locked by iron chains.

"Zhang Geng?" Cheng Yaojin looked at the middle-aged man kneeling in the hall and asked tentatively.

The middle-aged man raised his head and looked at Cheng Yaojin. A hint of excitement flashed across his face, and then he felt a lot of shame and hurriedly lowered his head.

"Why did you leave when you said you wanted to go back to your hometown? Why did you follow Cui Yan?" Cheng Yaojin's voice was a little excited.

It seems that he is very familiar with this middle-aged man.

"General Cheng, subordinate..."

"Is it you who took someone to assassinate Zhao Chen?" Li Shimin asked.

Cheng Yaojin is familiar with this person, and Li Shimin doesn't care at all.

He wanted to know now whether what Zhao Chen said just now was true!

If it is true, then nothing is happening.

If it's fake, then...

"Yes!" The middle-aged man did not look up, but just responded.

"Why?" Li Shimin asked again.

"I dare not refuse the entrusted by the head of the family."

"Then why did you say it again today?" Li Shimin asked again.

"The Duke of Zhao County said that if he didn't tell the truth today, he would destroy the entire family of the Boling Cui clan."

"call--"

Li Shimin looked at Zhao Chen in front of him and breathed a long sigh.

I don't know what kind of look it looks like in my eyes.

Even if he destroyed the entire family of the Boling Cui clan, even Li Shimin would not dare to say such things.

But Zhao Chen, he dares!

And I'm not afraid of being known at all.

Li Chengqian stood in front and suddenly saw Zhao Chen smiling at him.

In just a moment, Li Chengqian felt cold sweat behind him.

He was sure that Zhao Chen knew about his previous conspiracy with Cui Yan.

Behind the smile just now, the fangs were exposed.

Citic Cui stopped talking, pointed his finger at Zhao Chen, trembling constantly.

The destruction of the Boling Cui family was only a simple six words.

But it makes people feel great fear.

Zhao Chen killed more than 80 people from the Cui family and even said that he would destroy the entire family of the Boling Cui family.

This murderous intention is enough to shut them up.

"Everyone has heard it clearly. Cui Yan assassinated Zhao Chen in front, but was killed by Zhao Chen. What questions are there in this case?" Li Shimin breathed a sigh of relief and said slowly.

No one makes any more noise at this moment.

Since Cui Yan first wanted to assassinate Zhao Chen, strictly speaking, it deserves to be killed by Zhao Chen.

In any case, Zhao Chen's life cannot be lost today.

They said something about offending Zhao Chen, who knows whether this lunatic will destroy their family?
