Aunt Gao's voice was sharp when she was excited, a young eunuch frowned slightly, and was about to speak out, but the emperor glanced at him lightly, and he quickly took back his words, not daring to say anything more.
Sheng Zhi was overjoyed, and his voice trembled slightly: "Maybe you really recognized it? Is it him?"
Aunt Gao said: "That's him! 20 years have passed, his face has changed, but I can remember his voice, that's the voice, that's the tone - he is the Mr. Yin and Yang from Xiabanzi Village, his name is Lu Shi !"
Her voice was so harsh and vicious that even Mr. Han couldn't speak for a while, but when he heard her real name suddenly, his whole body was shocked.
Sheng Zhi closed his eyes, let out a long breath, Sheng Duo bowed to the emperor and said: "I was too emotional and lost my composure for a while, please forgive me, Your Majesty."
He glanced at his younger brother and Aunt Gao, and explained to the emperor as well as to people who didn't know why: "20 years ago, when my mother was about to give birth, she was separated from her family due to a military disaster, and she went to a village among the people. It is the Xiabanzi village that Aunt Gao mentioned just now, and a baby boy was born there."
His voice was a little hoarse, he paused, calmed down for a moment, and then continued: "But because the son of the village chief fell off a cliff and died for no reason, a Mr. Yin Yang asserted that the younger brother was a murderer and demanded that he be expelled." My mother couldn't argue, and no one would believe her identity, so she could only watch helplessly as the child was taken away."
Although many people know about this incident, they still can't help but sigh when they hear this.Thinking of a mother who just endured pain and brought her child into the world, before she had time to take a good look at her baby, she would be snatched away by life, and heaven and man will be separated forever. forget.
Sheng Duo went on to say: "After my mother managed to chase it out, there was only a blurred mass of flesh and blood left on the ground—that Mr. Yin Yang actually threw my brother to death!"
Sheng Duo's voice became higher and higher, until it was almost completely hoarse at the back. Sheng Zhi's fists were clenched tightly and his teeth were clenched. Everyone around saw the reaction of the two brothers, and when they thought about this story, they all felt sympathetic.
Standing next to Grand Master Nie was Lord Zhen Guogong. He felt that the other party was silent, and knew that this old friend was also uncomfortable because of this matter. With his head buried deeply, his shoulders shrugged, a stream of tears fell to the ground.
A man does not flick his tears lightly, not to mention that he is the Duke of Zhen who defeated thousands of troops on the battlefield!
Grand Master Nie thought of his little grandson who died young, and his heart felt sore, he didn't speak, and silently turned his head away.
Sheng Duo lightly patted Sheng Zhi's shoulder, motioned his younger brother to calm down, and continued: "Later, my mother was discovered by the guards in the palace and brought back to the mansion. We found the village according to her description, and wanted to find out the whole situation. Only then did I learn that just the day before, the village was confronted with rebellious troops, and the villagers fled to their deaths. The entire village was almost deserted. It is not that no survivors have been found over the years, but they all It is already unclear who that Mr. Yin Yang was."
"We... didn't even bury my younger brother's bones. It wasn't until the investigation of Fengshui Xiedu that Commander Bai and his second brother realized that Lu Shi's identity was suspicious, and my father thought of re-investigating the past. , and found this Aunt Gao."
Sheng Duo said solemnly: "Aunt Gao, tell all about you, don't be afraid. The emperor is above, the world is clear, justice will definitely come back."
Sheng Zhi glanced at his elder brother, clenched his hands, and told himself in his heart: "Yes, justice will definitely come back."
Kneeling in front of the emperor, Aunt Gao said emphatically: "Don't be afraid of women, women have already lived enough, as long as you can see that evil will be rewarded with evil before you close your eyes, everything is worth it!"
She looked at Mr. Han and said loudly: "You just said that I am an elderly village woman, yes, I admit that I am not good-looking, but I am not yet forty this year! All of this is your fault You bastard who is not as good as a pig or a dog, after you raped me, my husband found out, and you pushed him off the cliff. You were afraid that people would find out, and you planted a newborn child, saying that my husband was restrained by him dead!"
Mr. Han, that is, Lu Shi was speechless at the moment, he finally recognized who Aunt Gao was, and he really didn't expect that this woman was still alive.
But at this moment, even if he had all kinds of calculations in his mind, he couldn't carry it out. He could only knelt on the spot stiffly with trembling and panic, listening to these severe accusations.
Seeing that the Sheng family's emotions were too agitated, Bai Yiling took over the topic and asked, "Aunt Gao, is your husband the son of the village chief?"
Just now everyone's tone was angry and high-pitched, but when Bai Yiling spoke now, his voice was clear and steady, which immediately calmed down the boiling atmosphere a little.
Seeing Aunt Gao nodded, Lu Yu raised her eyebrows and said, "Then since you knew who the murderer was, why didn't you tell me?"
Aunt Gao glanced at him sadly, Lu Yu was slightly taken aback, and only heard her say: "Because at that time, I struggled and resisted, trying to avenge my husband, but he pushed me into the river naked and almost drowned I died, but fortunately my dead husband blessed me, the river turned out to be a piece of running water, and I was rescued by someone who rushed me to a downstream village, and I was in a coma for seven days before I woke up. I don’t know where I went. My parents thought that I had committed adultery and eloped.”
As articulate as Lu Yu, he couldn't help being dumb for a moment.
Aunt Gao said: "I was naked when I was thrown into the river. Although the people in that village saved my life, they didn't think highly of me. I can only find some odd jobs to make a living. It has been 20 years since I have been stared at like this."
Life has been difficult for many years, so she is less than 40 years old, and her face is as old as a seventy-year-old woman.
Under her accusation of blood and tears, Mr. Han remembered everything. When he met the eyes of the Sheng family, his fear was like cold water, running up his back little by little. The woman who used to recognize him, but because of the child...
That child is really the son of the Sheng family? !
The emperor cherished Princess Duanrou's sister-in-law very much before he ascended the throne. Over the years, the blows and torture she suffered because of the loss of her son were obvious to all around her. Hearing Aunt Gao's words, his face had already fainted. Showing an angry look, he asked: "You said that the one who raped you was this person, do you have evidence?"
Aunt Gao gritted her teeth, and said resolutely: "He...he has a round birthmark on his thigh, the size of an egg, and a mole on his chest!"
Bai Yiling glanced at the emperor and waved his hands.
The two guards stepped up and pushed Mr. Han to the ground involuntarily. Bai Yiling said, "Don't pollute Longmu."
Ze'anwei allowed him to go up to the hall to wear a saber. After hearing Bai Yiling's words, Yan Yang stepped forward and drew the saber. He only heard "swipe" twice. Mr. Han's thighs and the clothes on his chest were all cut into two holes. , showing the mark on her body, it was exactly the same as Aunt Gao said.
Mr. Han's face was ashen.
Sheng Duo said angrily: "It turns out that you were the one who took my brother away!"
The matter has come to this point, Sheng Zhi couldn't bear it anymore, and he didn't care that he was in front of the imperial court, and he was about to beat Mr. Han when he went up, but he was pushed away before he could rush up.
Sheng Zhi was furious and wanted to speak, but raised his eyes but was stunned, and murmured: "Father?"
Sheng Mian, Duke of Zhen, didn't even bother to look at him. He picked up Mr. Han by his collar, and asked with red eyes, "Tell me—"
His voice choked, and he clenched his teeth again, and said a few words from between his teeth: "Is my son really dead?"
Mr. Han was trembling all over. He had dealt with yin and yang in his life and harmed countless people. He had never felt guilty or afraid, but at this moment, this handsome and gentle man in front of him made him feel fear from the heart.
He didn't dare to answer, and he didn't dare not to answer, so he could only reply in a trembling and weak voice: "Yes..."
At the same time he said this word, Sheng Mian punched Mr. Han in the face. His eyes were covered with blood mist, and his cheeks were so painful that he spit out a few teeth.
He gritted his teeth and said, "Bastard!"
A minister who had a good relationship with him rushed out, hugged Sheng Mian by the waist, dragged him back a few steps, and reminded in a low voice: "Master Guo, you have lost your dignity in front of the imperial court, don't be impulsive."
Sheng Mian let go of Mr. Han. After being let go, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the emperor to plead guilty: "Your Majesty, I, I miss the youngest son too much. I was angry for a while and lost my manners. Please punish me."
Sheng Mian, Sheng Duo, and Sheng Zhi were the only three persons in the Sheng family who had positions and were summoned into the palace. Seeing their father doing this, Sheng Duo and Sheng Zhi immediately followed and knelt down.
The emperor said softly: "The three of you are my brother-in-law and nephew. You are close relatives of flesh and blood, and because of love, I feel the same. How can you convict me? Zhen Guogong doesn't have to be like this."
Sheng Mian and his two sons kowtowed three times, and said in a deep voice: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your understanding. I am very grateful. But the Sheng family really has a blood feud with this person, and I hope your majesty will make the decision!"
The emperor said: "You all get up."
Sheng Mian knew that what the emperor meant by saying this was to tell him that "I have already made a claim", so he accepted it immediately, without further words, and stood aside with his two sons.
Duke Zhen succeeded to the throne as a teenager. When he was young, he was a famous handsome man in Kyoto.
Anyone can see that the Sheng family didn't deliberately pretend, every member of them really missed the child who died young.
This kind of grief and resentment is incomprehensible to outsiders, because the child did not die prematurely, but was killed by others. He left with regret and hatred, and left a hurdle in the hearts of the living. .
Their family, including Sheng Duo Shengzhi, who was still young at that time, still remember when the mother was pregnant, and the father was born and spoke softly to the younger brother or younger sister who was about to be born. They looked forward to new family members every day Born, the atmosphere at home is very happy every day, but since that incident, there has been an indelible pain in this family that had never had a gloomy haze before.
People are born helpless, they are always high-ranking officials and generous salaries, and they are rich and prosperous, and they can't keep the relatives they want to keep.All because of this charlatan in front of him!
The emperor asked Mr. Han coldly: "Lu Shi, why did you frame Prince Quanshun, the young son of the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion, and the young grandson of Grand Master Nie?"
Among them, Grand Master Nie's concubine's grandson died indirectly because of Mr. Han, but firstly, as the child's grandfather, he was always separated by a layer, and secondly, it was also because the child's death was not like that of Young Master Sheng. It was tragic, so Grand Master Nie was not as excited as the Sheng family, but when he heard the emperor's words, he couldn't help but feel sad and glared at Mr. Han.
Several of Mr. Han's teeth were knocked out by Sheng Mian, and half of his face was swollen. He said vaguely, "I...no, no, it's Caomin. Caomin was sent to Taoist temples since childhood and learned some spells. , The grassroots people deserve death, and for a while, they were obsessed with ghosts, thinking, wanting to say a few nonsense casually, and get some benefits..."
This is simply nonsense, if it is said that he is doing things for Concubine Hui, and he still wants to cheat some benefits, then he will not get half of the money for framing the princess's son.
Even if Mr. Han wanted to cover up his crime of killing the village chief's son at that time, there were many ways to slander a newborn baby, why bother?
Sheng Duo said: "Your Majesty, if he refuses to tell, please hand over Lu Shi to the minister. I will definitely let him tell the truth."
Seeing the vicious look of the Sheng family, how dare Mr. Han let himself fall into their hands, and immediately said: "No, don't...I said, I said, I, I did it to steal the child and sell it... "
Sheng Mian said: "Sell it?"
His tone rose unconsciously, and there was hope in his voice.If the child was really sold, he might still be alive. No matter where he is now or what he looks like, as long as he can be found, the whole family will unconditionally accept him and make up for him.
But Mr. Han's next words interrupted his thoughts immediately.
It turns out that this is not the first time he has done such a thing. For a few years, a new way of playing was very popular in Kyoto.Some gymnasiums or temples often use the banner of Qingxiu to decorate the appearance solemnly and elegantly, but in fact they keep a large number of beautiful boys and girls for the rich to play.
That kind of place makes a lot of money. If a child is born with good qualifications, it can be sold for hundreds of taels of gold, and Mr. Han is a master at training boys.
The two things he loves the most in life are money and sex. Before he became famous, he kept looking for suitable children to train in the name of slaying demons before he became famous, and then sold them at a high price.The so-called ghost and baby yin evil is just a consistent rhetoric.
At that time in the village, when he saw Princess Duan Jing's demeanor, he was shocked at first, but unfortunately, the other party was a woman who had just given birth to a child, and she was full of blood, which made him not interested, and beat the child instead. idea.
He did not really throw the child to death, but deceived the villagers with a lump of flesh and blood, making everyone think that he had executed the ghost fetus that brought disaster to the village, but in fact Mr. Han had taken the opportunity to temporarily hide the child in a bush middle.
After sending away everyone around him, he happily wanted to take the child back, thinking that he would be able to sell it for a good price in the future, but when he looked through the grass, he saw a big bad wolf.
Mr. Han said: "The wolf held an arm in its mouth and held the child in its mouth. It was staring at me with a pair of green eyes. I was startled, but the wolf turned around and ran away. At that time...at that time the child He didn't cry or cry, he didn't move, he was obviously killed, so I, I chased after a few steps and stopped following..."
He emphasized: "I didn't want to kill that child! If he hadn't been bitten to death by wolves at that time, I would have gone over and snatched the child back!"
Listening to him talking about these things, Sheng Mian trembled with anger, the blood in his whole body seemed to be boiling, but his heart was icy cold, beating crazily in his chest.
——His child, his wife was exiled among the rebellious army so that he could protect himself as much as possible. The child born after a lot of hard work was supposed to be a rich and noble son loved by the whole family, but he was actually bitten to death by wolves.
How ridiculous!
Sheng Duo supported him and whispered: "Father!"
Sheng Zhi pointed at Mr. Han and scolded angrily: "You didn't want to kill him, did you have some good intentions? If it weren't for you, how could my family have suffered such a disaster?! Over the years, because of you, how many children have been separated, and how many children have been separated. Tong Suffering? Death is imminent, and you have no heart to repent, you are simply a sinner!"
"It is true that the crime cannot be punished, so I will not let him die."
The emperor said coldly: "Come here, drag Lu Shi down, goug out his eyes, deafen his ears, cut off his tendons and hamstrings, and put him in a dungeon. Just leave his mouth and let him chant loudly every day. Curse, for those who were killed by him."
People don't know anything after death, but this kind of torture makes people unable to survive, unable to seek death, even unable to commit suicide, it is ten thousand times more terrifying than death!Mr. Han's voice changed, and he howled desperately, but was dragged down by the guards.
Finally, his heart-piercing screams gradually ceased to be heard.
The main hall was silent. At this moment, everyone had different thoughts, but they were unwilling to speak for a while.All I could hear was the early spring wind gently beating against the window lattice, and the faint chirping of birds came from the tops of poplar trees outside.It is full of vitality, but it seems to be in two different worlds from the atmosphere in the hall.
After a while, Lu Yu said: "Father, such a sinful person has finally received the punishment he deserves. It's really satisfying, but the rest of the people have not been dealt with yet."
Xie Fan was startled suddenly, cold sweat broke out all of a sudden.
From the time he pleaded guilty to the emperor until Lu Shi was dealt with, he knelt on the cold floor, his body was a little stiff, but it was nothing. What really scared him was the ending he was waiting for.
Every struggle and howl that Lu Shi was dragged out just now seemed to hit Xie Fan's nerves, making him feel a kind of real despair.
Although his crime is not enough to be compared with Lu Shi, any punishment is beyond his reach.From childhood to adulthood, any misfortune that Xie Fan caused was borne and ended by his parents, but now, his parents finally couldn't protect him anymore.
The one sitting on it is the emperor!
He had been silently praying in his heart for the emperor to forget about himself, but Duke Huai's light words immediately made everyone's eyes turn to Xie Fan.
Xie Fan's face was pale, his whole body was trembling, and he murmured: "The grass people are guilty, the grass people know their mistakes..."
With so many things happening in one day, the emperor also felt very tired, he didn't want to hear anything from the other two father and son of the Xie family who had knelt down to intercede, and he didn't want to spend time on Xie Fan.
At that moment, the emperor rubbed his eyebrows, waved his hand lightly, and decided: "Xie Fan, exile to Lingnan. As for Xie Taifei, Marquis of Yongding, he is not strict in teaching his children, and his virtue is not worthy, so he will be reduced to..."
Lu Yu: "Cough cough cough!"
The emperor was speaking, let alone wanting to cough, even if he was about to die, he had to hold back first. Lu Yu suddenly interrupted his father's words with loud noises, which shocked everyone.
The emperor waited for him to finish coughing in good temper, and asked, "Yu'er, did you catch a cold?"
Lu Yu said: "Ah, it doesn't count. It's just that I have been diligent in studying and practicing martial arts these few days, and running errands for my father. It has been too hard, and my body is in need."
The emperor nodded, and ordered the eunuch beside him: "Wei Rong, bring a bowl of ginseng flower soup to King Huai, it should be thicker, let him drink it while it's hot."
Lu Yu: "..."
Shenning flower soup is a good thing, yes, it is very effective in dispelling the cold in the body, but firstly, the cough just now was pretended by him, and secondly, this soup is not traditional Chinese medicine, it tastes bitter and astringent, very, difficult, and difficult to drink .
Lu Yu's reluctance was beyond words, but surprisingly, he didn't resist. He drank the soup that Wei Rong brought over in one gulp, frowned and said, "Thank you, Father, for your compassion."
Xie Taifei's heart was on fire, now is the critical moment for the emperor to deal with their family, and he only cared about Duke Huai's body in the middle of his words.What is he going to do with himself?And Xie Fan... No matter how much you hate iron, this child is still your own son. Do you really want to watch him being dispatched to Lingnan?
The distance is long and the environment is bad. People who go there are basically close to death!
His heart was anxious and tormented, but he knew in his heart that he was not as favored as King Huai and Lord Zhen Guo, and when things got to this point, there was no room for him to ask for mercy, otherwise he would have no regrets .Therefore, Xie Taifei didn't even dare to raise his head, but held onto Xie Xi who wanted to ask for mercy, so as not to let his second son be involved in this matter again.
After finally finishing Lu Yu's bitter medicine soup, he returned the bowl to Wei Rong. The emperor's attention returned to Xie's family, but the content of his speech seemed to be different from before:
"Marquis of Yongding, Xie Taifei, you are not strict in teaching your son, so I will let go of your errands and think about your mistakes behind closed doors at home. Mrs. Marquis of Yongding withdrew the imperial order document, and then...degraded to a seventh-rank child."
The emperor paused, his eyes fell on Bai Yiling, and he said after a while: "The eldest son of the Marquis of Yongding, Bai Yiling, the commander of the Northern Inspection Department, is quick-witted and decisive, Zhongyong is commendable, and he is worthy of a great job. He is now enshrined as the prince and in charge of the affairs of the Marquis's residence." .”
After these words were spoken, most of the people present were taken aback, the emperor's handling was beyond everyone's expectations!Xie Fan's exile can be said to be what he deserved.
But the treatment of the rest is tantamount to saying that Xie Taifei will no longer have any real power in his hands, and the actual power holder of the entire Yongding Hou Mansion will be Bai Yiling who has changed his surname!
Even if Xie Taifei was deprived of his title, it wouldn't be so surprising, and at the same time, he couldn't help but feel emotional.Thinking about the whole of Kyoto, who doesn't know that Yongding Hou and his wife are the most eccentric. After sending the eldest son away, they don't care about it, but they love the other two sons more than treasures, and they can't wait to give them everything.
The result now?After all the tricks were exhausted, the Hou Mansion actually fell into Bai Yiling's hands!
At this moment, the system after sobering up finally popped out, congratulating Bai Yiling——
[Congratulations to the host for successfully upgrading!Obtained a reward - "Yongdinghou Mansion".This Marquis Mansion can be used for bartering consumption activities in this world, or it can be enjoyed by oneself. 】
[Host property value +50, prestige value +50.
Xie Taifei's loss value +100; Xie Fan's remorse value +100; Fu Min's anger value +250, heartache value +250. 】
[Your "Domineering General Fox" will help you succeed, and a "Caring and Loyal Fox" badge will be added!Hidden Branch - Brotherly Love That Moves Heaven and Earth, Socialist Family Meets the Trigger Conditions! 】
Sheng Zhi was overjoyed, and his voice trembled slightly: "Maybe you really recognized it? Is it him?"
Aunt Gao said: "That's him! 20 years have passed, his face has changed, but I can remember his voice, that's the voice, that's the tone - he is the Mr. Yin and Yang from Xiabanzi Village, his name is Lu Shi !"
Her voice was so harsh and vicious that even Mr. Han couldn't speak for a while, but when he heard her real name suddenly, his whole body was shocked.
Sheng Zhi closed his eyes, let out a long breath, Sheng Duo bowed to the emperor and said: "I was too emotional and lost my composure for a while, please forgive me, Your Majesty."
He glanced at his younger brother and Aunt Gao, and explained to the emperor as well as to people who didn't know why: "20 years ago, when my mother was about to give birth, she was separated from her family due to a military disaster, and she went to a village among the people. It is the Xiabanzi village that Aunt Gao mentioned just now, and a baby boy was born there."
His voice was a little hoarse, he paused, calmed down for a moment, and then continued: "But because the son of the village chief fell off a cliff and died for no reason, a Mr. Yin Yang asserted that the younger brother was a murderer and demanded that he be expelled." My mother couldn't argue, and no one would believe her identity, so she could only watch helplessly as the child was taken away."
Although many people know about this incident, they still can't help but sigh when they hear this.Thinking of a mother who just endured pain and brought her child into the world, before she had time to take a good look at her baby, she would be snatched away by life, and heaven and man will be separated forever. forget.
Sheng Duo went on to say: "After my mother managed to chase it out, there was only a blurred mass of flesh and blood left on the ground—that Mr. Yin Yang actually threw my brother to death!"
Sheng Duo's voice became higher and higher, until it was almost completely hoarse at the back. Sheng Zhi's fists were clenched tightly and his teeth were clenched. Everyone around saw the reaction of the two brothers, and when they thought about this story, they all felt sympathetic.
Standing next to Grand Master Nie was Lord Zhen Guogong. He felt that the other party was silent, and knew that this old friend was also uncomfortable because of this matter. With his head buried deeply, his shoulders shrugged, a stream of tears fell to the ground.
A man does not flick his tears lightly, not to mention that he is the Duke of Zhen who defeated thousands of troops on the battlefield!
Grand Master Nie thought of his little grandson who died young, and his heart felt sore, he didn't speak, and silently turned his head away.
Sheng Duo lightly patted Sheng Zhi's shoulder, motioned his younger brother to calm down, and continued: "Later, my mother was discovered by the guards in the palace and brought back to the mansion. We found the village according to her description, and wanted to find out the whole situation. Only then did I learn that just the day before, the village was confronted with rebellious troops, and the villagers fled to their deaths. The entire village was almost deserted. It is not that no survivors have been found over the years, but they all It is already unclear who that Mr. Yin Yang was."
"We... didn't even bury my younger brother's bones. It wasn't until the investigation of Fengshui Xiedu that Commander Bai and his second brother realized that Lu Shi's identity was suspicious, and my father thought of re-investigating the past. , and found this Aunt Gao."
Sheng Duo said solemnly: "Aunt Gao, tell all about you, don't be afraid. The emperor is above, the world is clear, justice will definitely come back."
Sheng Zhi glanced at his elder brother, clenched his hands, and told himself in his heart: "Yes, justice will definitely come back."
Kneeling in front of the emperor, Aunt Gao said emphatically: "Don't be afraid of women, women have already lived enough, as long as you can see that evil will be rewarded with evil before you close your eyes, everything is worth it!"
She looked at Mr. Han and said loudly: "You just said that I am an elderly village woman, yes, I admit that I am not good-looking, but I am not yet forty this year! All of this is your fault You bastard who is not as good as a pig or a dog, after you raped me, my husband found out, and you pushed him off the cliff. You were afraid that people would find out, and you planted a newborn child, saying that my husband was restrained by him dead!"
Mr. Han, that is, Lu Shi was speechless at the moment, he finally recognized who Aunt Gao was, and he really didn't expect that this woman was still alive.
But at this moment, even if he had all kinds of calculations in his mind, he couldn't carry it out. He could only knelt on the spot stiffly with trembling and panic, listening to these severe accusations.

Mr. Han's face was ashen.
Sheng Duo said angrily: "It turns out that you were the one who took my brother away!"
The matter has come to this point, Sheng Zhi couldn't bear it anymore, and he didn't care that he was in front of the imperial court, and he was about to beat Mr. Han when he went up, but he was pushed away before he could rush up.
Sheng Zhi was furious and wanted to speak, but raised his eyes but was stunned, and murmured: "Father?"
Sheng Mian, Duke of Zhen, didn't even bother to look at him. He picked up Mr. Han by his collar, and asked with red eyes, "Tell me—"
His voice choked, and he clenched his teeth again, and said a few words from between his teeth: "Is my son really dead?"
Mr. Han was trembling all over. He had dealt with yin and yang in his life and harmed countless people. He had never felt guilty or afraid, but at this moment, this handsome and gentle man in front of him made him feel fear from the heart.

Sheng Mian, Sheng Duo, and Sheng Zhi were the only three persons in the Sheng family who had positions and were summoned into the palace. Seeing their father doing this, Sheng Duo and Sheng Zhi immediately followed and knelt down.
The emperor said softly: "The three of you are my brother-in-law and nephew. You are close relatives of flesh and blood, and because of love, I feel the same. How can you convict me? Zhen Guogong doesn't have to be like this."
Sheng Mian and his two sons kowtowed three times, and said in a deep voice: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your understanding. I am very grateful. But the Sheng family really has a blood feud with this person, and I hope your majesty will make the decision!"
The emperor said: "You all get up."
Sheng Mian knew that what the emperor meant by saying this was to tell him that "I have already made a claim", so he accepted it immediately, without further words, and stood aside with his two sons.
Duke Zhen succeeded to the throne as a teenager. When he was young, he was a famous handsome man in Kyoto.
Anyone can see that the Sheng family didn't deliberately pretend, every member of them really missed the child who died young.
This kind of grief and resentment is incomprehensible to outsiders, because the child did not die prematurely, but was killed by others. He left with regret and hatred, and left a hurdle in the hearts of the living. .
Their family, including Sheng Duo Shengzhi, who was still young at that time, still remember when the mother was pregnant, and the father was born and spoke softly to the younger brother or younger sister who was about to be born. They looked forward to new family members every day Born, the atmosphere at home is very happy every day, but since that incident, there has been an indelible pain in this family that had never had a gloomy haze before.
People are born helpless, they are always high-ranking officials and generous salaries, and they are rich and prosperous, and they can't keep the relatives they want to keep.All because of this charlatan in front of him!
The emperor asked Mr. Han coldly: "Lu Shi, why did you frame Prince Quanshun, the young son of the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion, and the young grandson of Grand Master Nie?"
Among them, Grand Master Nie's concubine's grandson died indirectly because of Mr. Han, but firstly, as the child's grandfather, he was always separated by a layer, and secondly, it was also because the child's death was not like that of Young Master Sheng. It was tragic, so Grand Master Nie was not as excited as the Sheng family, but when he heard the emperor's words, he couldn't help but feel sad and glared at Mr. Han.
Several of Mr. Han's teeth were knocked out by Sheng Mian, and half of his face was swollen. He said vaguely, "I...no, no, it's Caomin. Caomin was sent to Taoist temples since childhood and learned some spells. , The grassroots people deserve death, and for a while, they were obsessed with ghosts, thinking, wanting to say a few nonsense casually, and get some benefits..."
This is simply nonsense, if it is said that he is doing things for Concubine Hui, and he still wants to cheat some benefits, then he will not get half of the money for framing the princess's son.
Even if Mr. Han wanted to cover up his crime of killing the village chief's son at that time, there were many ways to slander a newborn baby, why bother?
Sheng Duo said: "Your Majesty, if he refuses to tell, please hand over Lu Shi to the minister. I will definitely let him tell the truth."
Seeing the vicious look of the Sheng family, how dare Mr. Han let himself fall into their hands, and immediately said: "No, don't...I said, I said, I, I did it to steal the child and sell it... "
Sheng Mian said: "Sell it?"
His tone rose unconsciously, and there was hope in his voice.If the child was really sold, he might still be alive. No matter where he is now or what he looks like, as long as he can be found, the whole family will unconditionally accept him and make up for him.
But Mr. Han's next words interrupted his thoughts immediately.
It turns out that this is not the first time he has done such a thing. For a few years, a new way of playing was very popular in Kyoto.Some gymnasiums or temples often use the banner of Qingxiu to decorate the appearance solemnly and elegantly, but in fact they keep a large number of beautiful boys and girls for the rich to play.
That kind of place makes a lot of money. If a child is born with good qualifications, it can be sold for hundreds of taels of gold, and Mr. Han is a master at training boys.
The two things he loves the most in life are money and sex. Before he became famous, he kept looking for suitable children to train in the name of slaying demons before he became famous, and then sold them at a high price.The so-called ghost and baby yin evil is just a consistent rhetoric.
At that time in the village, when he saw Princess Duan Jing's demeanor, he was shocked at first, but unfortunately, the other party was a woman who had just given birth to a child, and she was full of blood, which made him not interested, and beat the child instead. idea.
He did not really throw the child to death, but deceived the villagers with a lump of flesh and blood, making everyone think that he had executed the ghost fetus that brought disaster to the village, but in fact Mr. Han had taken the opportunity to temporarily hide the child in a bush middle.
After sending away everyone around him, he happily wanted to take the child back, thinking that he would be able to sell it for a good price in the future, but when he looked through the grass, he saw a big bad wolf.
Mr. Han said: "The wolf held an arm in its mouth and held the child in its mouth. It was staring at me with a pair of green eyes. I was startled, but the wolf turned around and ran away. At that time...at that time the child He didn't cry or cry, he didn't move, he was obviously killed, so I, I chased after a few steps and stopped following..."
He emphasized: "I didn't want to kill that child! If he hadn't been bitten to death by wolves at that time, I would have gone over and snatched the child back!"
Listening to him talking about these things, Sheng Mian trembled with anger, the blood in his whole body seemed to be boiling, but his heart was icy cold, beating crazily in his chest.
——His child, his wife was exiled among the rebellious army so that he could protect himself as much as possible. The child born after a lot of hard work was supposed to be a rich and noble son loved by the whole family, but he was actually bitten to death by wolves.
How ridiculous!
Sheng Duo supported him and whispered: "Father!"
Sheng Zhi pointed at Mr. Han and scolded angrily: "You didn't want to kill him, did you have some good intentions? If it weren't for you, how could my family have suffered such a disaster?! Over the years, because of you, how many children have been separated, and how many children have been separated. Tong Suffering? Death is imminent, and you have no heart to repent, you are simply a sinner!"
"It is true that the crime cannot be punished, so I will not let him die."
The emperor said coldly: "Come here, drag Lu Shi down, goug out his eyes, deafen his ears, cut off his tendons and hamstrings, and put him in a dungeon. Just leave his mouth and let him chant loudly every day. Curse, for those who were killed by him."
People don't know anything after death, but this kind of torture makes people unable to survive, unable to seek death, even unable to commit suicide, it is ten thousand times more terrifying than death!Mr. Han's voice changed, and he howled desperately, but was dragged down by the guards.
Finally, his heart-piercing screams gradually ceased to be heard.
The main hall was silent. At this moment, everyone had different thoughts, but they were unwilling to speak for a while.All I could hear was the early spring wind gently beating against the window lattice, and the faint chirping of birds came from the tops of poplar trees outside.It is full of vitality, but it seems to be in two different worlds from the atmosphere in the hall.
After a while, Lu Yu said: "Father, such a sinful person has finally received the punishment he deserves. It's really satisfying, but the rest of the people have not been dealt with yet."
Xie Fan was startled suddenly, cold sweat broke out all of a sudden.
From the time he pleaded guilty to the emperor until Lu Shi was dealt with, he knelt on the cold floor, his body was a little stiff, but it was nothing. What really scared him was the ending he was waiting for.
Every struggle and howl that Lu Shi was dragged out just now seemed to hit Xie Fan's nerves, making him feel a kind of real despair.
Although his crime is not enough to be compared with Lu Shi, any punishment is beyond his reach.From childhood to adulthood, any misfortune that Xie Fan caused was borne and ended by his parents, but now, his parents finally couldn't protect him anymore.
The one sitting on it is the emperor!
He had been silently praying in his heart for the emperor to forget about himself, but Duke Huai's light words immediately made everyone's eyes turn to Xie Fan.
Xie Fan's face was pale, his whole body was trembling, and he murmured: "The grass people are guilty, the grass people know their mistakes..."
With so many things happening in one day, the emperor also felt very tired, he didn't want to hear anything from the other two father and son of the Xie family who had knelt down to intercede, and he didn't want to spend time on Xie Fan.
At that moment, the emperor rubbed his eyebrows, waved his hand lightly, and decided: "Xie Fan, exile to Lingnan. As for Xie Taifei, Marquis of Yongding, he is not strict in teaching his children, and his virtue is not worthy, so he will be reduced to..."
Lu Yu: "Cough cough cough!"
The emperor was speaking, let alone wanting to cough, even if he was about to die, he had to hold back first. Lu Yu suddenly interrupted his father's words with loud noises, which shocked everyone.
The emperor waited for him to finish coughing in good temper, and asked, "Yu'er, did you catch a cold?"
Lu Yu said: "Ah, it doesn't count. It's just that I have been diligent in studying and practicing martial arts these few days, and running errands for my father. It has been too hard, and my body is in need."
The emperor nodded, and ordered the eunuch beside him: "Wei Rong, bring a bowl of ginseng flower soup to King Huai, it should be thicker, let him drink it while it's hot."
Lu Yu: "..."
Shenning flower soup is a good thing, yes, it is very effective in dispelling the cold in the body, but firstly, the cough just now was pretended by him, and secondly, this soup is not traditional Chinese medicine, it tastes bitter and astringent, very, difficult, and difficult to drink .
Lu Yu's reluctance was beyond words, but surprisingly, he didn't resist. He drank the soup that Wei Rong brought over in one gulp, frowned and said, "Thank you, Father, for your compassion."
Xie Taifei's heart was on fire, now is the critical moment for the emperor to deal with their family, and he only cared about Duke Huai's body in the middle of his words.What is he going to do with himself?And Xie Fan... No matter how much you hate iron, this child is still your own son. Do you really want to watch him being dispatched to Lingnan?
The distance is long and the environment is bad. People who go there are basically close to death!
His heart was anxious and tormented, but he knew in his heart that he was not as favored as King Huai and Lord Zhen Guo, and when things got to this point, there was no room for him to ask for mercy, otherwise he would have no regrets .Therefore, Xie Taifei didn't even dare to raise his head, but held onto Xie Xi who wanted to ask for mercy, so as not to let his second son be involved in this matter again.
After finally finishing Lu Yu's bitter medicine soup, he returned the bowl to Wei Rong. The emperor's attention returned to Xie's family, but the content of his speech seemed to be different from before:
"Marquis of Yongding, Xie Taifei, you are not strict in teaching your son, so I will let go of your errands and think about your mistakes behind closed doors at home. Mrs. Marquis of Yongding withdrew the imperial order document, and then...degraded to a seventh-rank child."
The emperor paused, his eyes fell on Bai Yiling, and he said after a while: "The eldest son of the Marquis of Yongding, Bai Yiling, the commander of the Northern Inspection Department, is quick-witted and decisive, Zhongyong is commendable, and he is worthy of a great job. He is now enshrined as the prince and in charge of the affairs of the Marquis's residence." .”
After these words were spoken, most of the people present were taken aback, the emperor's handling was beyond everyone's expectations!Xie Fan's exile can be said to be what he deserved.
But the treatment of the rest is tantamount to saying that Xie Taifei will no longer have any real power in his hands, and the actual power holder of the entire Yongding Hou Mansion will be Bai Yiling who has changed his surname!
Even if Xie Taifei was deprived of his title, it wouldn't be so surprising, and at the same time, he couldn't help but feel emotional.Thinking about the whole of Kyoto, who doesn't know that Yongding Hou and his wife are the most eccentric. After sending the eldest son away, they don't care about it, but they love the other two sons more than treasures, and they can't wait to give them everything.
The result now?After all the tricks were exhausted, the Hou Mansion actually fell into Bai Yiling's hands!
At this moment, the system after sobering up finally popped out, congratulating Bai Yiling——
