Chapter 505: Your Highness, please
"Don't dare to do it? We are not afraid of even the charge of treason. What else do we dare not do?" Huang Zicheng, who was deeply hit, raised his head angrily again when he heard Li Jie's words.
"Haha, is that you also called treason? In my opinion, you are just a group of opportunists. Although you are not very ambitious, you are not brave enough. Your Highness did not escape from the capital. The reason lies with you!" Li Jie said sarcastically without hesitation.
"You..." Huang Zicheng was speechless by Li Jie's words, and finally he simply shook his sleeves and stopped talking.
"Why did the prince consort say that?" Zhu Yunwen asked with a frown. Although he was reluctant to believe it, the current situation made him vaguely feel that maybe Huang Zicheng and others were really bad.
"Your Highness is a smart person, so I will just say that on the day the late emperor passed away, Mr. Huang and others could take the opportunity to attack and disrupt the situation in the capital, but they did not do so because they dare not. After all, although doing so can create a chance for Your Highness to get out of the city, it will allow them to break up with Your Majesty completely and be liquidated by Your Majesty in the future."
"You...you are slandering, in order to provoke your highness's relationship with us!" Huang Zicheng was so angry that his face turned red when he heard Li Jie's words, and he pointed at him and shouted.
"Your Highness is slandering yourself. I believe your Highness has a clear mind, but I still want to say that if it weren't for your selfish intentions, your Highness might have fled to Nanjing. At that time, Your Majesty and I might have been helpless with Your Highness." Li Jie replied with a cold smile.
Huang Zicheng was so angry that his whole body was trembling. He clearly felt that Li Jie was trying to sow discord, but he couldn't find any refutation. Compared to this, Zhu Yunwen next to him showed a thoughtful look.
In fact, what Li Jie said makes sense. If Huang Zicheng and others immediately attacked the court when he first left the imperial city that day, Zhu Yunxi and Li Jie would definitely be in a state of anxiety and would not care about him at all. Even if there was a large army blockade, there would still be a great chance to escape from the city.
Of course, if Huang Zicheng and the others do this, they will definitely take a big risk. After all, Zhu Yunwen can escape from the city, but they are not able to do it. Then Zhu Yunyu is angry and directly confiscating their homes and extermination, so Li Jie said that Huang Zicheng and the others dare not.
Thinking of this, Zhu Yunwen couldn't help but sigh. It's too late to say anything now. There is only one chance. If you miss it, you will miss it. But if you think so, in Zhu Yunwen's heart, he couldn't help but complain about Huang Zicheng and others. If they hadn't had their selfishness too much, how could he have fallen to this point?
"Okay, I shouldn't have said these words at first, but I just heard the noble words of Mr. Huang just now, so I couldn't help but say a few more words. Now please ask Your Highness to return to the palace!" Li Jie stood up and said in a hand gesture of inviting him.
"Return to the palace? Aren't you going to send me to the heavenly prison of Dali Temple?" Zhu Yunwen looked at him and asked in surprise when he heard Li Jie's words. In his opinion, he committed a death sentence. Even if Zhu Yunyu didn't kill him for the time being, he would probably not make him feel better.
"Although Your Highness made a big mistake, he is the son of the late emperor after all, so how to convict depends on His Majesty's intention!" Li Jie said very cautiously.
"Yun Yu is your wife's brother. In the past, he could even be regarded as half of your student, but now you are talking about His Majesty at once? Don't you feel embarrassed?" Zhu Yunwen suddenly spoke again. He learned very quickly, and this time he actually started to provoke the relationship between Li Jie and Zhu Yunyu.
"The rituals of the monarch and the ministers cannot be abolished. Now that Your Majesty has ascended the throne, Your Highness will also perform the rituals of the monarch and the ministers in the future!" Li Jie warned with a serious expression. Just now, Zhu Yunwen called Zhu Yunyu's name directly, and it was obvious that he still did not recognize Zhu Yunyu's throne in his heart.
"Haha, you have always been so cautious, but I am very curious. With the changes in your identities, will you still be as close as before in the future?" Zhu Yunwen asked with a smile again. Anyway, he was already a prisoner of Li Jie, so he completely let go of it at this time, and his thinking became much clearer than before.
"Your Highness will not care about how I get along with Your Majesty in the future. If Your Highness has time, it is better to think about your future situation!" Li Jie's face turned cold when he heard this. He waved his hand and then a team of people broke into the outside and captured Huang Zicheng. As for Zhu Yunwen, after all, he was a royal family, so no one dared to take action, but he surrounded him.
"Let's go, Your Majesty is still waiting for Your Highness in the palace!" Li Jie stood up and made a gesture of inviting Zhu Yunwen. As for Huang Zicheng, he must be arrested in the Heavenly Prison.
In addition to Huang Zicheng, Qi Tai and others involved in the case have also sent people to arrest him. Of course, there must be some people who Li Jie doesn't know, but it doesn't matter. After interrogating Huang Zicheng and others, they will naturally know other accomplices.
Of course, while arresting people, the city defense in the capital also tightened again, especially those officials, almost all the Jinyiwei guards were staring at them, in order to prevent those involved in the case from getting news and thus escaping from the city.
Huang Zicheng also knew that he was finished, so when he was arrested by the officers and soldiers, his whole body suddenly felt like his bones were removed and he completely collapsed into a ball. He could still hold on in front of Li Jie just now, but now that things are coming, he can no longer hold on.
Zhu Yunwen sighed as he looked at Huang Zicheng who was lying down. Although he had complaints about Huang Zicheng and others, he couldn't help but sigh when he saw the other party's pitiful appearance. He was unable to protect himself now, so he couldn't help Huang Zicheng and others.
At that moment, Li Jie took Zhu Yunwen out of the Yingchun Teahouse. He had already laid heavy troops outside and prepared a carriage. Li Jie invited the other party to get on the carriage, and then he personally got on the carriage. He now mainly wanted to prevent Zhu Yunwen from thinking about it and doing anything to hurt him.
However, Zhu Yunwen's mood was quite stable. After getting on the car, he was silent for a long time. When the carriage was about to enter the imperial city, Zhu Yunwen suddenly looked up at Li Jie and asked, "What do you think Yunhe will deal with me?"
"I can't tell you this." Li Jie replied casually.
"You are the person he trusts the most, and he watched him grow up. Can't you guess his thoughts?" Zhu Yunwen didn't believe Li Jie at all. If anyone in this world could guess Zhu Yunsheng's thoughts, it would probably be Li Jie.
