Chapter 394 Confrontation between the two sides in front of the imperial court
Su Liluo looked in the direction of Li Ergou, looked at his cowardly look, and smiled helplessly.
Why is this guy so cowardly!
She wiped off the blood stains on the sword, came to him with strength, stretched out her hand to help Li Ergou up.
"Thank you, girl. I'm really useless. I can't help you with your worries, and I'm causing you trouble..."
Li Ergou looked embarrassed and thanked Su Liluo sheepishly.
"It doesn't matter, it's already great that you can stand up for everyone and file a lawsuit."
Su Liluo was worried that those people would attack him again, so she took him directly to the shop and asked Yunfan to arrange a room for him to rest.
She herself asked the shop assistant to return to the Prime Minister's Mansion to deliver a message to Lu Zhu, and also stayed in the shop to protect him.
Yunfan asked people to go to Yipinlou to buy some delicious food and deliver it to the second floor, where the three of them ate together.
"You said Hu Yong hasn't appeared yet?"
"Yes."
When Su Liluo first heard Li Ergou mention Hu Yong, she didn't think much about it.
However, later, I thought carefully about the experiences of Li Ergou and Li Yueya, and I always felt that it was all too coincidental.
But I couldn't tell what was wrong.
Until that night, Su Liluo felt that there should be a large number of secret guards around the shop to monitor them.
Early the next morning, Emperor Dongling sent his imperial troops to directly surround the shop where they were staying. Following the emperor's instructions, he ordered Li Ergou and Su Liluo to enter the palace together to have an audience.
The lines that had always been vague in Su Liluo's heart suddenly became clear.
She was once again taken advantage of by the emperor!
From the beginning to the end, Long Yunxuan and his emperor father knew that the person behind Li Ergou was her.
Perhaps, in the beginning, the reason why she met Li Ergou was because of that person's plan.
All their whereabouts have long been monitored by Emperor Dongling.

Daqing Hall
"As dear friends, do you know why I summoned you here today?"
Emperor Dongling sat on the dragon chair in a friendly manner, with a gentle voice and a smile on his face.
On the other hand, all the officials standing in the palace had serious and nervous expressions on their faces, and everyone was in danger.
"I am terrified...I have been wronged...I hope the emperor will tell you the truth!"
After hearing Emperor Dongling's words, Yu Dehai, the Minister of Household Affairs, Rong Guang, the Deputy Envoy of the Supervision Department, Dunan, the Commander of the Appeasement Department, Mi Zeyang, the Deputy Commander of the Cangbe Department, and Zuo Daquan, Yin of Duqicheng Prefecture, knelt down with joy. One place.
He said he was afraid, but he didn't say why he was afraid.
He talks about injustice, but he doesn’t know whether it is injustice or not.
"Ha...fear...unjust?"
The smile suddenly disappeared from Emperor Dongling's face.
The majestic cold sound resounded throughout the Daqing Hall.
"I have here conclusive evidence and account books that you guys embezzled money for disaster relief, secretly exchanged money for disaster relief food and sold it, and you still dare to complain in front of me?"
Emperor Dongling narrowed his eyes and glanced sideways at Hu Ke.
The latter immediately brought the tray he was holding to the kneeling official.
"My lords, please take a closer look."
"This……"
"minister……"
Seeing the solid evidence before their eyes, the faces of Yu Dehai and others turned pale.
The palms hidden in the sleeves were also trembling in panic.
However, they were still pretending to be calm and kowtowed to the ground together.
"Your Majesty, I have been wronged! This must be a forgery deliberately made by someone with a heart! It is used to frame me!"
"Yes! Your Majesty, I have a loyal heart towards you and the people of Dongling. I have absolutely no two hearts!
How could he do such a bad thing! ?
Your Majesty, please avenge me! "
"..."
They repeatedly begged Emperor Dongling to make the decision, and they insisted that these things were forgeries.
Anyway, the money they spent and the money they earned from selling relief grains could not be found in their homes.
As long as the money cannot be traced, they can insist that they have not done it.
"Hahahaha... ok!"
Emperor Dongling looked at them like this and smiled instead of getting angry.
"My dear friends, at this time, they are really united and have a very tacit understanding!
It’s true, if you don’t see the coffin, you won’t shed tears!
Come, bring someone's ID! "
As soon as Emperor Dongling finished speaking, the closed door of Daqing Palace opened wide, and two figures walked in against the light, following behind the imperial guards.
One is slender, the other is straight.
It was Su Liluo and Li Ergou.
Yu Dehai and others looked at the two of them in unison.
He barely concealed his desire to kill them both.
Fortunately, a few people still had some sense, and at the same time looked away and continued to act like they had been wronged.
"My daughter/caomin——Su Liluo/Li Ergou——kowt to the emperor."
"Yeah, flat body."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Su Liluo stood up gracefully. Although Li Ergou was a little timid, with Su Liluo standing beside him, he felt inexplicably more confident, and he didn't act like he was stretching his hips.
"Su Liluo, how are you doing these days?"
No one expected that Emperor Dongling would ask Su Liluo such a question at this juncture.
"Uh..." Su Liluo didn't expect it herself.
She was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern. Your Majesty, I am living a good life."
snort!
Sir, you send so many secret guards to follow her every day, don't you know that she is as tired as a dog these days?
You still ask this, you must be doing it on purpose!
Su Liluo thought so, but others had other thoughts.
They all thought that Emperor Dongling was hinting to her, how would she live without her prince?
it's not good?
Unexpectedly, Su Liluo replied without blinking, "Very good!"
Even everyone, including Hu Ke, couldn't help but look at her sideways.
Really, so courageous.
He didn't even give the emperor a chance to find some balance in his heart.
Emperor Dongling didn't care, as if he had already expected her to leave his prince and live a good life.
"Haha... Okay, that's good. Are you the Li Ergou who beat the drum in public and complained to the emperor?"
After chatting with Su Liluo about family matters, Emperor Dongling turned his attention to Li Ergou.
"If you go back to the emperor, you are just a common man."
Li Ergou was about to kneel down again, but Emperor Dongling raised his hand to stop him.
"No need to kneel."
"Uh... yes."
Li Ergou swallowed tremblingly and waited for Emperor Dongling to continue asking questions.
"Did you personally find those evidences and account books and verify their authenticity?"
"This……"
Li Ergou looked up at Su Liluo, not knowing how to answer.
If you say yes, that is the crime of deceiving the emperor. If you say no, you have to answer who found it.
Su Liluo gave him a don't worry look, then looked up at Emperor Dongling and said loudly:
"Your Majesty, my daughter found those account books and evidence."
"Oh?"
Pretending to be confused while pretending to understand, Emperor Dongling played this role with ease.
"It's you?"
"She is my daughter."
