Chapter 254 The Third Trial (2)

The lobby is quiet, and you can hear everyone's heartbeat!

Wei Zheng and the six presiding judges did not expect Li You to ask so directly. No one in the lobby expected Li You to attack Li Ke. Li Tai couldn't believe Li You's actions just now.

"Explanation?" Li Ke suddenly smiled. He stood up and walked slowly to Li You, and said in a gentle tone, "Fifth brother, what explanation do you want me to give you?"

Li Ke's words immediately surprised everyone even more. He did not expect that Li Ke not only did not refute Li You's question, but also asked Li You how to explain it. Isn't this obvious admitting that this matter was his mastermind and planned?

Li You looked at Li Ke's face close to his smiling face, and his heart suddenly became cold. Suddenly, an ominous premonition came to his heart. He couldn't help but try to calm down his thoughts and said, "Third Brother, as long as you admit it..."

"Fifth brother, I should have said this to you, right?" Li Ke interrupted Li You and continued to say in a gentle manner, "It's still time to admit it now, otherwise our brothers will plead for you to your father - it's terrible that it will be too late."

"Li Ke——" Li You suddenly shouted, "What do you mean?"

At this time, Li You obviously did not have the arrogance of the royal family, but he was like a nouveau riche who was angry.

"Fifth brother, you know what I said very well. Now you can't say it, and I won't force it. However, someone will ask you for your request. You must tell the truth at that time!" Li Ke still maintained his smile, not angry at all because of Li You's rudeness, and his manifestation reflects the nobleness and gentlemanship of the prince.

When Li Ke and Li You were talking, Wei Zheng and others, including Li Tai, were staring at the two people in detail, and they didn't say anything. After all, everyone who was selfish wanted to find clues from the conversation between the two.

Now seeing Li You staring at Li Ke angrily, while Li Ke still maintains a graceful demeanor. Li Tai knew that the two clashes had ended with Li Ke's victory, so he stood up as a peacemaker and said to the two with a smile, "Fifth brother, how can you speak to the third brother like this? Third brother, he is not meant to be honest, and I hope you don't blame him."

"Hmph!" Li You sneered at Li Tai's words and ignored them.

"Looking at what the fourth brother said, is the third brother a petty person?" Li Ke smiled cheerfully and returned to his own seat.

"Two Your Highnesses, I hope you can respect yourself in the court." Wei Zheng said at this time, and then he looked at Wang Gui and other jury and said, "It has been more than ten days since the beginning of the poisoning case of the queen and the imperial concubine. Since this official took over, many unimaginable things have indeed happened. First, the real cause of Xianglan's death was found, and then the important evidence Zhang Zhong was poisoned, and then the death of the imperial physician Sun Yan, who falsely reported the cause of Xianglan's death. Everything is constantly destroying all the evidence in this case."

Wei Zheng sighed and continued, "But no matter how cunning the enemy is, we have gained a lot after several days of hard work and obtained an important evidence - Zhang Zhong's account book."

"Bang--" Wei Zheng suddenly slapped the agglomeration and said loudly, "Take witness Zhang Hong--"

"No" the yamen runner replied.

Wei Zheng said this, there was a look of expectation on Li Tai's face, Li You's face began to turn pale, while Li Ke's expression was still so kind and friendly.

Soon, a woman in light red clothes was taken to the Tang Dynasty. The woman obviously had never seen such a big scene of going to the hall, and she seemed very scared in fear.

"Miss Zhang Hong, don't be afraid. I summoned you today just to ask you to confirm whether the thing in front of you was something that Zhang Zhong gave you before he made perjury." After Wei Zheng said that, Dai Zhou took out a book of accounts and handed it to the yamen runners, who held the book of accounts in front of Zhang Hong.

When Zhang Hong saw the account book, her eyes turned red and she said in a choked tone, "This thing is indeed handed over to me by Zhang Zhong!" After saying this, Zhang Hong began to cry in a low voice.

"Miss Zhang Hong, you can go down!" Wei Zheng said.

Zhang Hong agreed and stepped down from the lobby.

Wei Zheng and Zhang Hong left the lobby, and then said to Li You, "Your Highness, the account book of King Qi, Zhang Zhong records the number and people who have taken precious medicinal materials from the medicinal kitchen to the first year of Zhenguan to the present. The account book shows that the content shows that four days before the Queen and Yinfei were poisoned, you took several medicinal materials from the medicinal kitchen. These medicinal materials were the medicinal materials that were missing from the kidney poison in the empress and the imperial concubine later. Should Your Highness give an explanation to the officials about this matter?"

"Secretary Secretary Wei, Zhang Zhong himself is dead, it is difficult to tell the authenticity of his account book, let alone what is recorded in it, how can you explain to you?" Li You had restored his previous cold expression and said in a cold tone.

"Your Highness King Qi, as you said, the authenticity of the account book is difficult to tell, so we summoned Zhang Hong to confirm, because this account book was what Zhang Zhong handed to Zhang Hong one night before he made perjury. You just heard that Zhang Hong had confirmed that the account book was indeed handed over to her by Zhang Zhong. It is not necessary to doubt whether the account book is Zhang Zhong's object." Wei Zheng suddenly said, his tone was very stern, "And, in order to verify the content of the account book, we based on the content of Zhang Zhong's records

Rong investigated the files and asked many people, including the imperial doctor in the Imperial Hospital, the eunuchs in the medicinal kitchen, the left and right prison guards, etc., and confirmed the authenticity of the account records through them. Moreover, the left and right prison guards also proved that on the day you took the medicinal materials, they also saw you coming out of the palace with a large bag of things." Wei Zheng said here, his voice increased by octave and shouted sternly, "Your Highness, can you explain this matter to me?"

"Yes! I did take away a lot of medicinal materials that day, but I didn't want it. The imperial doctor prescribed a prescription for me to take medicine to recuperate. I took away a lot of medicinal materials from the medicinal kitchen, and those medicinal materials were all medicinal materials on the prescription prescribed by the imperial doctor." Li You explained.

"Your Highness King Qi, please tell me the truth. Don't fool me, several jury and two jury!" Wei Zheng said in a stern tone, "We have asked the imperial physician in detail before this. The imperial physician proves that no matter how well the medicinal materials you took cannot form a good prescription that can cure diseases. Therefore, your explanation is obviously to be perfunctory and the jury, and I hope your highness will respect you in the court."
