Chapter 892 Can’t argue
Everyone was shocked again. They didn't expect that Liu Muyun would come in person!
"Is General Dingyuan really missing? What happened?"
"Look, Master Liu is here, so this must be the case."
"Could it be that the enemy country has made unusual moves? Even General Dingyuan has been captured. What should we do?"
Everyone was in a panic. The general was missing, and they were afraid that he was in danger. Moreover, it seemed that this had been concealed for a long time, but they knew nothing about it.
"Madam, why are you so anxious? I have my reasons for doing this." Liu Muyun sneered.
Then he suddenly turned his head and looked in the direction of Prince Yuanming, then pointed forcefully, "General Dingyuan is in trouble, he was murdered by a traitor, and that traitor is Prince Yuanming!"
Prince Yuan Ming was suddenly pointed out. He was stunned at first, and then became furious.
"Liu Muyun, what do you mean? General Dingyuan is missing, and it was this general who petitioned the emperor to send an imperial envoy to the border to investigate. If it was really this general who did it, why would you report it to the court?"
Prince Yuan Ming didn't expect that the fire would burn himself. What bad luck!
"Humph! You are the one who is crying thief! Because you colluded with foreign vassals and betrayed your own people, General Dingyuan caught you with evidence. You were afraid that General Dingyuan would report the matter to the court, so you took the initiative.
You arrested the general and tortured him to extract a confession, hoping that he would reveal the evidence of his previous search for you and his military deployment. You also ambitiously wanted the tiger talisman, but the general would rather die than surrender, so you tortured him severely and now he has died for his country!"
When Prince Yuanming heard that Liu Muyun had put the blame on him, he became so angry that he drew his sword.
"Liu Muyun, stop slandering me! General Dingyuan's disappearance has nothing to do with me. I am a relative of the royal family of Dayun Dynasty. What good will it do me if the border is in chaos? Can I just abandon the border and ignore it? What is your intention in spreading lies and misleading the people?"
When everyone saw Prince Yuanming draw his sword, they were so scared that they stepped back one after another, fearing that he would kill them all in a rage.
Originally, they believed Liu Muyun's words to some extent, but after hearing what Prince Yuan Ming said, they felt that it made a lot of sense.
Prince Yuanming is the eldest princess' son. In the future, he will inherit the title of first-class duke, which is already the highest honor. Why should he collude with foreign vassals?
When Mrs. Liu and other members of the Wang family heard that General Dingyuan was dead, they were deeply saddened, but they could not believe it.
"Humph! That's because you're desperate! At that time, General Dingyuan found evidence of your collusion with foreign vassals and your secret dealings. You were afraid that the truth would be exposed, so you naturally couldn't present the evidence to the court, so you killed him.
You have always been proud of your martial arts and strategy as being as good as General Dingyuan, and have long wanted to replace him. After all, as long as General Dingyuan is here, you don’t have the final say on this frontier, and now is the perfect opportunity.”
"You are framing me! It's impossible!" Prince Yuan Ming finally experienced what it meant to be unable to defend himself.
Although he also hoped that General Dingyuan would not come back, he really did not kill the man.
"Think about it, General Dingyuan has always been kind to others and considerate of his subordinates. How could he have any personal grudges? Apart from the enemy country and the villains who colluded with the foreign vassal states, who would have killed him?"
Everyone was at a loss for what to do for a moment and could only stand there in a daze.
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Liu Muyun continued, "If General Dingyuan was captured by the enemy country, why would those people be so quiet? I'm afraid they would have invaded long ago! Only Prince Yuanming didn't dare to spread the news because he was afraid of foreign invasion."
"Yes! Lord Liu's words make sense! If they were really captured by the enemy country, then they would have rushed in. How could they be so quiet?"
"Doesn't that mean that the general's disappearance is indeed related to Prince Yuanming?"
Everyone started talking again. In fact, for them, if General Dingyuan really died, it was better to die at the hands of Prince Yuanming than at the hands of the enemy.
Because the tiger talisman was in the hands of General Dingyuan, if he was captured and taken to the enemy country, the tiger talisman would fall into the hands of the enemy.
"Prince Yuanming, did you capture General Dingyuan?" someone asked.
"I didn't!" Prince Yuan Ming shook his head.
"If it's not you, then who is it?"
Everyone was talking at once, they just wanted a definite answer. Since General Dingyuan was in danger, they felt that it was more acceptable if it was done by Prince Yuanming.
Madam Liu and Wang Xiao's faces were pale. They were at a loss for a moment. They were worried about the general's safety and they also began to doubt Yuan Mingshi Liu Muyun.
They looked at Jiang Youzhen, wondering who of them was telling the truth.
"Prince Yuanming, hand over the tiger talisman quickly! The general's death can no longer be concealed, and the enemy's cavalry is coming! If you don't hand over the tiger talisman, you will not be able to command thousands of troops, and Yuming Pass will be finished!" Liu Muyun said.
"I said I didn't do it. I didn't kill General Dingyuan. Without the tiger talisman, it is impossible for me to have it in my hand." Prince Yuanming was really anxious at this moment!
He suddenly thought of something and turned to look at Jiang Youzhen.
"Jiang Youzhen, please say something!"
Jiang Youzhen looked at Prince Yuanming suspiciously, "Prince, did you really not kill the general?"
When Prince Yuanming saw that Jiang Youzhen didn't believe him, he excitedly waved the sword in his hand and said, "I've already said no. I swear to God, it couldn't have been me."
But in everyone's eyes, he looked a little crazy at this moment, which meant that he was desperate and wanted to kill all the people who knew about it.
"Who is this?" Liu Muyun looked at Jiang Youzhen, a faint light flashing in his eyes.
"He is Jiang Youzhen, the imperial envoy sent by the court. He knows that I am innocent." Prince Yuan Ming said hurriedly as if he had grasped a life-saving straw.
"Imperial envoy? The court sent an imperial envoy here, why didn't I know about it?" Liu Muyun looked at Jiang Youzhen suspiciously.
"I have a gold medal bestowed by the Emperor!"
Jiang Youzhen immediately took out the gold medal and said to everyone: "Seeing the gold medal is like seeing me! Why don't you kneel down?"
Liu Muyun was not prepared for Jiang Youzhen to actually take out a gold medal. He took a look and found that it was real, so he knelt down reluctantly.
When everyone saw Liu Muyun kneeling down, they all knelt down and shouted, "Long live the emperor! Long live the emperor! Long, long live the emperor!"
"Everyone, please stand up!" Jiang Youzhen put away the gold medal.
"Master Liu, you said that Prince Yuanming killed General Dingyuan. Do you have any evidence?"
Liu Muyun nodded and said, "Of course there is evidence. I have looked for General Dingyuan several times before, but was told that he was not in the mansion, so I became suspicious.
During this period of time, we have been sending people to investigate, and we have found that the Prince of Yuanming is colluding with the foreign vassal, and we have arrested General Dingyuan and imprisoned him in an iron mine in Anxi County that has been reported to be abandoned. "
"Unfortunately, by the time I sent people to rescue him, the general was already dying. Before he died, he told my subordinates that it was Prince Yuanming who did it."
