"Father!" Yu Wenshao turned to his father for help.

Marquis Yongning looked at the officials present. He either looked solemn, or drank tea with his head down, not making eye contact with Marquis Yongning. His body can't stop it.

"Clap! Clap! Clap!"

Aunt Xia wailed endlessly. Mrs. Hou had not treated her badly these years, so she lived a pampered life in the Yongning Hou Mansion. Her skin was still fair and tender at this age, and her skin was torn apart after being beaten with a few boards. Aunt Xia wished she could faint , but that clear sense of pain kept her very awake, soberly enduring all of this.

No one came to save her, neither a man nor a son could save her.

After realizing this problem, Aunt Xia struggled violently: "I will confess honestly, please forgive me, I will confess..."

The executioner looked up at the lord sitting on the seat, and the minister of Dali Temple sternly said, "What are you looking at? First finish typing the [-] boards, and then let her tell the truth and sign the papers."

"Clap! Clap! Clap!"

Yu Wenshao was powerless to save people, so he lay on the ground crying, but Yan Xiangmian was so distressed, he rushed over and hugged him, his confidant couldn't stop him, so he could only secretly hate Yu Wenshao, if it wasn't for Yu Wenshao, they would How did the master fall into such a situation?

The crowd of onlookers felt that the board was played extremely happily. Who would have thought that this seemingly weak woman would have five or six lives in her hands.

Aunt Xia's wailing became weaker and weaker, and when she was dragged out after thirty boards, she was already a bloody person, but Madam Hou, Li Changshuo and Zhou Shun all looked on coldly, even if she was beaten to death, they would save her. Without the lives of the three members of Zhou's family, Zhou Shun will be separated from his uncle, aunt and sister forever.

"Xia Yinglian, tell me the truth quickly!"

How could Aunt Xia dare to quibble any more, she lay down there and confessed in a low voice, and the recorder next to her was also squatting beside her to record how she would try to change the child, how she would bribe people around Mrs. Hou, and how she would succeed in exchanging things. As for Zhou Shun's aunt, the midwife told her because her son's logo was too obvious, which made Xia Yinglian realize on the spot that the midwife could not stay.

At that time, she actually brought a midwife with her, but because she drank oxytocin and gave birth prematurely, it was difficult for her to give birth. The midwife beside her was not enough. In addition, Zhou Shun's aunt was well-known in the local area and was very good at delivering babies. invited her here.

The reason why one person was missed was because the person who started the attack was too hasty, and only knew that Zhou's couple had only one daughter, which allowed Zhou Shun to survive.

Not only the three members of Zhou Shun's family were exterminated, but also the people who dealt with Aunt Xia at that time also asked her to be killed one after another over the years. She wanted to live, but she was afraid that Madam Hou's suspicion would be aroused if she moved her hand.

Xia Yinglian confessed intermittently, and fainted once in the middle, but she was woken up by pouring cold water mercilessly, and then continued to confess, and Yan Xiangmian, who loved Yu Wenshao, glared at her several times, which made Yan Xiangxi pay attention to other things. His people were very disappointed. Could it be that in Yan Xiangmian's mind, the servants and ordinary people are all pariahs, and life and death are so important at all?

Gu Zhao kept his eyes down and listened, and raised his brows slightly at the end. Except that he didn't confess that he had hooked up with the remnants of the previous dynasty, it was basically in line with his investigation and speculation. Was it because she still wanted to keep her son Yu Wenshao at a critical moment?

If the remnants of the previous dynasty are really revealed in public, even if Yu Wenshao does not die, he will not escape the crime of living.

Or maybe she still hopes that her son and Marquis Yongning can still fish her out. As long as she saves her life for the time being, she can still plan for the future, maybe she can even turn around.

Gu Zhao sneered in his heart.

After the confession was reviewed by everyone, Xia Yinglian drew it and signed it. Feng Yuanting and Dali Temple Minister discussed with each other and sentenced Xia Yinglian to death. She was executed after autumn, and then she was put in prison again.

In fact, both of them were instructed by His Majesty to let this woman die later, she can still use it, Feng Yuanting is fine, but Dali Siqing, as a professional, found many suspicious points in the process of investigating the case, and he was keenly aware of these suspicious points There is a lot involved behind it, and His Majesty probably knew about it first, so he wanted to keep this alive.

As soon as the result came out, the people outside applauded and applauded, only Marquis Yongning lost his mind. The beautiful woman in his mind turned out to be a terrible snake that would kill several people without blinking. How could it be like this?

"Let's go!" Yan Xiangmian supported Yu Wenshao, and stared at the direction of Gu's family and Mrs. Hou with hatred. He had to keep in mind that it was these people who persecuted Wen Shao, and it was these people who caused Wen Shao to be separated from his mother. .

Li Changshuo found out, and said inexplicably, "Who is this person? But to be able to work with that little beast, it can be seen that he is also an unknown bastard."

His son Li Jie already knew the identity of this person from Gu Zhao and Gu Mu, and said with a smile: "Father, that is Yan Xiangmian, the eldest son of Chengjun Prince's Mansion, who intends to compete for the heir of the emperor."

"Just him? Which fool would dare to recommend such a person to the top?" Li Changshuo was startled.

"Father! Let's talk about it when we get back." Li Jie had a headache, and his father didn't even look at the entrance of the venue, so he kept his mouth open in public.

"Okay, let's go back."

However, the officials and dignitaries who have not yet left were deeply touched when they heard this. Yes, if this kind of person is really allowed to take the position, the court will probably be messed up. From this incident, we can see that Chuyan Xiangmian is cronyist, acts according to his own will, and regards the laws of Dazhou as nothing.

Li Changshuo followed his sister back to her sister's dowry house, and now the words "Li's House" were hung on the door, Li Changshuo felt very good after seeing it.

After entering the house, the Gu family wanted to leave, and asked their brothers, sisters, uncles and nephews to talk to each other, but Mrs. Hou made a noise to keep them.

"Second brother, this is the sister-in-law of the Gu family who I met when I was giving birth outside. This is the eldest brother of the Gu family. This is the second child in the Hou's mansion. Unfortunately, I didn't know that he was the child of Mrs. Gu. I haven't been able to do it all these years." Take good care of him, fortunately Zhao'er took him away from the Hou Mansion in advance."

Li Changshuo and Li Jie have actually met Gu Yang, but he was called Yu Lu at that time, but he had only met him from a distance. After all, he was not Madam Hou's biological child, and had no blood relationship with them, and he was almost the same as Madam Hou. Born, his existence itself is a bit of an eyesore, but because Xia Yinglian, an evil woman, remembers the so-called "help" to Madam Hou, any gift from the Li family in these years will always bring this second son. But now after Li Changshuo read the girl's letter, he knew that those things must not have been in the child's hands.

Li Changshuo first bowed respectfully to the elders of the Gu family. He only saw his nephew for the first time today, and he knew that the Gu family had raised him very well. Standing there, he was no less inferior than the impostor before, especially at such a young age. He became a viscount by his own efforts.

Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu hurriedly backed away. They still treated Gu Zhao as their own son, so they didn't think they should receive this gift. Zhao'er had no intention of changing his surname until now.

Li Changshuo felt more and more that the old couple of the Gu family were simple and kind, and patted Gu Yang on the shoulder again: "My good boy, it was my uncle who misjudged me at the beginning, but you are still my second uncle's good nephew."

Gu Yang blushed and called out: "Second Uncle."

Li Changshuo happily agreed, looking at this honest nephew, he looks very similar to the old couple of the Gu family. My sister is right. I have really treated this child badly these years. Fortunately, the child has a kind heart and doesn't care about everything in the past. .

The two families sat down and talked together. Li Changshuo talked about the situation of rushing all the way here. He originally received the first letter from his sister. After Li Changshuo was furious, he asked his son to hurry back to the capital. As an official, Li Changshuo could not leave at will.

In the end, Li Jie had only driven halfway, and Madam Hou's second letter came again. Li Changshuo finally asked him to go to the peak to leave, and hurriedly chased him. After the father and son met, according to the situation provided by Madam Hou's letter, Arrest people first.

Li Changshuo has been an official for many years, and in two or three times, he made those servants honestly confess everything they did at the beginning, and then brought these witnesses to the Fengtian government office. Write a letter and let him not worry too much.

The elder's child is also on the way, and the eldest has no way to come, so he asked his wife to bring the child to the capital, and he will arrive in two days.

The efforts of the two elder brothers made Mrs. Hou burst into tears. Without a man, she still has a son, and a brother and sister-in-law who can support her.

Li Changshuo patted his younger sister's hand and sighed: "I have suffered for you all these years. After the parents are gone, I will leave you alone in the capital to guard. That's not the case. Those people would not dare to be so bold."

The two elders have always felt that they owed their younger sister. At the beginning, the younger sister was running around because of her father's affairs, which caused the child to give birth prematurely, and their father retired because of his health, but he and his elder brother were implicated because of their father's affairs. He couldn't return to the capital, and he couldn't get promoted to an official position, but he could only work hard, and it was fine if the emperor didn't knock down their Li family.

"I'm not suffering. My two elder brothers, my sister-in-law and my nephews are the ones who have worked hard. If Zhao'er hadn't found out about these things, I'd always thought that my life these years was very happy. Compared to your elder brothers and you, these things are nothing."

Li Changshuo was even more emotional when he heard it, and turned to look at his nephew Gu Zhao: "Nephew, was there another reason behind our father and your grandfather? Did the woman have something to tell?"

Gu Zhao nodded: "Uncle has good eyesight. The rest of the matter is not suitable to be explained in public, but someone from His Majesty will take over. I believe His Majesty will appreciate the hard work of the two uncles over the years."

Li Changshuo was deeply moved when he heard this, who would have thought that such a woman would turn the Li family upside down, his father died early, and the three brothers and sisters of the Li family were separated.
