Chapter 352: Failed to trick Mo Li, failed to steal the chicken and ended up losing the rice
Zhu Junhao was just about to acknowledge her as his godmother, but when he remembered Mo Li's words, he swallowed them back.
I wondered why I should recognize this liar as my godmother.
He said goodbye and turned to leave.
Aunt Tao looked at his departing figure and said, "Remember to close the door."
Zhu Junhao did not respond.
But he actually closed the door before leaving.
……
Heshen said to Lord Wu, "Not being able to find the kite is only a minor fault. However, if I make a fake kite to deceive the emperor, it would be a serious crime of deceiving the emperor." He tapped the table with his fingers.
Lord Wu said, "This is enough to put Mo Li to death."
He Shen said, "That's right. Lord Wu, tomorrow we will see the Emperor. If Mo Li pulls out a fake kite, you must expose him to his face."
He patted Master Wu's chest with the back of his hand and continued, "This is a great achievement."
Lord Wu was very happy and said, "Thank you, Lord He."
He Shen heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Ah, Mo Li, Mo Li, if you weren't always so hard on me, I really wouldn't have the heart to hurt you. It's quite a lot of brainwork to figure this out, isn't it?"
Lord Wu laughed heartily, feeling very proud.
……
The next day.
Jinluan Palace.
Emperor Gai Zhang said happily, "Mo Li really found the kite. Present it to me."
Mo Li smiled and said yes, then handed the kite to the eunuch.
The eunuch handed the kite to Emperor Gai Zhang, who took it, looked at it, and said, "Yes, that's the kite. This Eighteenth Princess has been annoying me these past few days."
Heshen watched all this calmly.
Lord Wu behind him took two steps forward and said, "Your Majesty, I beg you, Mo Li forged the kite and deceived Your Majesty. He deserves death."
Emperor Gai Zhang was stunned when he heard this and said, "A fake kite?"
Mo Li then said, "Hey, Master Wu, how do you know my kite is fake?"
Lord Wu couldn't produce the real kite, his face turned red, and he looked at Heshen.
He Shen thought it would be best to make the matter clear, so he said, "Your Majesty, as far as I know, Mo Li couldn't find a kite, so he bought a kite pattern and made a fake kite according to the pattern to deceive Your Majesty."
He didn't say that he gave it to himself so as not to bring trouble upon himself.
Emperor Gai Zhang looked at Mo Li seriously and asked, "Mo Li, is this true?"
Mo Li thought, "Heshen, you are trying to kill me. I must fight back." He said, "Your Majesty, that's not true. Heshen gave me the pattern for the kite, but I found the kite before that."
"Found it back? How is that possible?" Heshen was surprised.
Mo Li said, "Xiao Yue can testify to this."
He Shen said, "Everyone knows that you and Du Xiaoyue are in love. Her testimony doesn't count."
Mo Li said, "Hey, Lord He, this kite pattern was given to me by you. I didn't spend a penny on it. Xiaoyue can testify to this." As he said that, he took out the pattern and said, "Your Majesty, please take a look."
The eunuch walked over, took the pattern from him and handed it to the emperor to seal it.
The Stamp Emperor compared the kite with the pattern and said, "They are not the same thing. There are two characters for 'eighteen' in this position, but not on the pattern."
He Shen was so frightened that he immediately knelt down and kept saying, "This slave deserves to die, this slave deserves to die."
Lord Wu also knelt down and kowtowed repeatedly.
Emperor Gai Zhang said, "Alright, you two wanted to frame Mo Li, but you ended up losing more than you gained. Hehe. Speaking of which, Mo Li, how did you get the kite back?"
Mo Li said, "Your Majesty, for the past three days, I have been waiting on the street before dawn. I did this for two days. On the third day, I saw an old woman selling an 18-square kite to a vendor, and I immediately bought it."
