Chapter 342: Exposure
Immediately, Lin Rusi stepped forward and handed the letter to the emperor: "Your Majesty will understand once you read this why some people would lay a hand on me and Your Highness!"
The emperor, with a cold face, opened the letter and suddenly his eyes changed, and he was immediately enraged.
"Whose is this?!" The emperor gripped the envelope tightly.
Lin Rusi suddenly raised her head and said in a firm voice, "It's the Left Censor!"
"Left Censor?"
The emperor's eyes darted around, as if he had thought of something, and he fell silent for a moment.
Lin Rusi didn't give him a chance to catch his breath and added, "Not only that, the Left Censor-in-Chief also has an affair with the Empress!"
This was a complete shock!
"A secret affair?! Do you even know what you're saying?!"
The emperor shook his head vigorously, naturally disbelieving.
The matter of causing chaos in the imperial harem is too serious to be discussed lightly.
Lin Rusi looked directly into the emperor's eyes and said, "Your Majesty, this is such a serious matter that I would never dare to speak recklessly. If I had not obtained the evidence and if the Left Censor had not gone so far as to act so outrageously, I would never have dared to come before you to speak!"
She spoke with such conviction that she was practically swearing an oath.
Seeing this, the emperor also frowned and hesitated to speak.
"Eunuch Su! Send someone to invite the Left Censor!"
He remained silent for a moment, then suddenly turned and gave an order with a cold expression.
Hearing this, Lin Rusi was not in a hurry. She wanted the emperor to see the evidence and waited for the Left Censor to arrive before making any further decisions.
Not long after he left, my father-in-law rushed back in a hurry.
"emperor……"
Grandpa Su looked terrified, his body trembling slightly.
The emperor's eye twitched, a bad feeling creeping over him: "What's wrong?"
"Your Majesty, the Left Censor-in-Chief's house is now deserted." Eunuch Su said with a panicked tone, his eyes lowered.
"what!"
The emperor could no longer sit still; now, he would no longer doubt the authenticity of the letter.
He unconsciously took a deep breath, finally losing his composure: "Eunuch Su, summon the Imperial Guards! Arrest that entire family right now! If they resist arrest, execute them on the spot!"
At this point, his face turned completely ugly.
Upon hearing the order, Eunuch Su did not hesitate and set off immediately.
Watching Eunuch Su leave, Lin Rusi pressed her advantage: "Your Majesty! Not a single word I said is a lie. If you don't believe me, I'll send someone back to get the evidence right away!"
The emperor waved his hand: "Go, but wait until I tell you to take it before you take it."
"Someone, go and invite the Empress."
As soon as he finished speaking, he let out a cold snort, his face extremely ugly.
Now Lin Rusi knew that he was about to settle scores.
She didn't speak, just remained silent with her head down.
Sure enough, a short while later, a young eunuch brought the Empress over.
The Empress arrived with a smile, but her face turned pale the moment she saw Li Jingyang and Lin Rusi.
"Your Majesty, this..."
The Empress glanced at the Emperor with some hesitation, then couldn't help but look at Lin Rusi.
Lin Rusi didn't say much, only gave a cold snort.
"Come and sit down. I have something I want to say to you."
The emperor was all smiles and showed no sign of displeasure.
"Yes," the Empress replied, slowly stepping forward and sitting down beside the Emperor.
Meanwhile, the emperor also arranged positions for Li Jingyang and the other man.
Lin Rusi didn't speak, but she was certain that the emperor wasn't stupid and wouldn't allow a woman who had betrayed him and a traitor who had colluded with the enemy to be active in front of him!
She raised her head slightly, becoming increasingly curious as to why the emperor wouldn't act immediately.
"I remember that when we got married, we didn't know each other. The first time we met was on our wedding night."
After a moment of silence, the emperor suddenly began to reminisce about the past.
The Empress felt even more flustered upon hearing this: "Yes, but why did Your Majesty suddenly bring this up?"
Her heart was pounding, and the thought of Lin Rusi made her increasingly uneasy.
During this time, Lin Rusi didn't say much, and the emperor followed suit, chatting casually with the empress, as if nothing had happened.
……
Before long, Eunuch Su returned, accompanied by the Left Censor.
Seeing this, the Empress immediately stood up. She wasn't stupid; she wasn't so oblivious as to not see it by now.
Lin Rusi clearly revealed what happened between them!
She stared intently in the direction of the Left Censor and Lin Rusi.
When the emperor saw the people arrive, he sighed softly.
"You're here too?"
The emperor spoke in a gentle tone, showing no sign of anger.
Seeing this, Lin Rusi smiled.
The Left Censor was trembling, his legs shaking.
How could he dare to go see the emperor and empress?
At this moment, the emperor remained calm and composed: "I just realized that you and the Left Censor had always had a good relationship. However, the marriage was ordered by Father Emperor, and I didn't know about it at the time. I never expected that you would betray me. Even after so many years, you still haven't let go of the Left Censor."
The Empress shook her head repeatedly, subconsciously denying it: "Your Majesty, after so many years of relationship with me, don't you understand me?"
"I certainly understand you, but it seems I don't understand you that well."
"It must be Lin Rusi!"
The Empress suddenly screamed, pointing directly in Lin Rusi's direction: "I knew it was Lin Rusi, didn't I?! She must have said something to you! Right?"
"I only had a minor disagreement with her, why would she resort to such methods against me! Isn't Princess Jinglie going a bit too far!"
The Empress then spoke again, which drew everyone's attention to Lin Rusi.
Lin Rusi shrugged, her face completely indifferent. The evidence was in her hands, so there was no need for further rebuttal.
The emperor remained silent, glancing at the empress and then at the Left Censor.
"Left Censor, you speak," the emperor said coldly.
The Left Censor was still being held by the guards, so of course he wouldn't admit what he had done.
"Your Majesty, how could I dare? Your Majesty has been so kind to me these past few years, I naturally wouldn't dare."
The Left Censor-in-Chief, looking completely unperturbed, asked again, "Why has Your Majesty arrested me? I have no idea what I have done wrong."
The Left Censor's expression was so frank that even the Emperor was momentarily stunned.
Just believe that it won't lie.
"If you haven't done anything wrong, why did you take your family and flee the capital?"
"That's because I promised my daughter that I would take them to Jiangnan, so I packed my things and left for Jiangnan."
The Left Censor spoke earnestly, showing no sign that he had made a mistake.
The emperor didn't waste any more words on him and casually took out the letter Lin Rusi had given him from his bosom: "I don't remember your handwriting, but your memorials are all on the table!"
As he spoke, he slammed the object onto the Left Censor's face, demanding fiercely, "Tell me, what is this? You didn't do anything, so why are you running away?!"
The Left Censor was taken aback, then looked closely at the contents of the envelope at his feet.
Finally regaining his senses, he said, "Your Majesty! I can explain!"
