Chapter 143: Repentance (Part II)

Wei Ming looked at the letter in his hand with a pale face, the huge grief and horror mixed with the invasion of his reason, his hands shook, and the letter fell quietly from between him. Liang Yinhuan was strong, and immediately stepped forward to pick up the letter paper, and began to read it to himself. It does clearly state how Huo Pei'an threatened Song He's father and son back then, and asked Song He to ignore some doubts when trying Yun Xu's case, and even tamper with the evidence, and finally point all the fingers at Yun Xu. It can be seen from the crooked handwriting that Song He was running out of oil when he wrote this letter, but he still insisted on writing the truth he knew.

Song Xiaoyi knelt at Wei Ming's feet with tears streaming down his face, crying so much that even his voice was a little hoarse. He kept apologizing and begging for Wei Ming's forgiveness: "Uncle Wei, my father is indeed ashamed of your robe, but my father is by no means a heinous corrupt official, and he never thought of getting any benefits from Huo Pei'an!" ”

"Xiaoyi, I watched you grow up! What a simple child you were originally, you didn't expect to do such a thing?! "Wei Ming" and your father....I ruined my reputation. You said that you and your father were forced to do so, but after so many years, have you ever thought about exposing Huo Pei'an's crimes? Have you ever thought of making this letter public? Is the Yun family innocent? ”

"Fortunately, your father still left such a little evidence, you come with me now, and I will take you to the emperor to expose Huo Pei'an's crimes together!" Don't worry, I will intercede with the emperor for you at that time, and I will give you a light hair! ”

Song Xiaoyi shook his head in panic and muttered, "I can't... I can't say that! ”

"Can't say?! For your father's reputation? To survive on your own?" Wei Ming scolded angrily, he didn't expect that at this time, since Song Xiaoyi was still so greedy for life and afraid of death, he couldn't help but be even more angry. "So you can't bear to let Yun Xiang bear the infamy of the ages?"

"Nope! It's not that I'm greedy for life and afraid of death, nor is it afraid of damaging my father's reputation, we make mistakes, and we deserve it. But... This case is different, we will never be able to overturn the case for Yun Xiang! Song Xiao slurred, and finally his voice became quieter and quieter, almost turning into self-talk.

"Why can't it be?" Wei Ming was stunned, but still patiently persuaded him, "You are a human witness, and you still have the physical evidence left by your father, the emperor will believe it!" Huo Pei'an's recent power is not as good as before, and it is the best time to take out the old case at this time! ”

"Nope! It's not the same....you don't understand! Song Xiaoyi still insisted on refusing to enter the palace, and even his feelings became more and more excited.

"You!" Wei Ming couldn't bear it at this time, he just wanted to step forward and forcibly drag Song Xiaoyi who was kneeling on the ground, but he was blocked by Qiu Feng, who suddenly stepped forward.

Qiu Feng said coldly: "Lord Wei, don't force him, he is indeed not wrong." Even if you put it in front of the emperor with chiseled and ironclad evidence now, he will not overturn the case for Yun Xiang! ”

Wei Ming stared at the strange man in front of him tightly, and asked puzzledly, "Why?!"

"Does Lord Wei really think that Huo Pei'an alone can give birth to such a monstrous wave? Besides, why did he kill Yun Xu? He was just a fourth-grade official back then, what good could he do to bring down the clouds? ”

"What do you mean... Huo Pei'an has someone behind him to plot to support him? Wei Ming understood the meaning of Qiu Feng's words, but this information made him even more confused. Even if Huo Pei'an has an accomplice, it doesn't mean that this case can't be retried! The only possibility is Huo Pei'an's accomplice, who is now more powerful than Huo Pei'an.

This thought crossed Wei Ming's mind, making him tremble instantly, his lips trembled, and he asked uneasily, "Could it be....that the person behind Huo Pei'an has a noble identity?" ”

"Yes, before the rebellion case, although this person's identity was noble, it was not extremely expensive, but as soon as Yunxiang died, King Rui was snubbed by the first emperor, and this person's identity changed, which is unspeakably expensive!" Qiu Feng said with blazing eyes, although he did not name this person in his words, but this little clue still made Wei Ming's already fragile heart hit again.

Wei Ming carefully recalled the entire process during and after the incident. At that time, it was Huo Pei'an who first accused Prime Minister Yunxu of colluding with General Cheng Ao of the Haotian Army, intending to rebel during the spring hunt when the first emperor was out of the palace. And Huo Pei'an also took out the correspondence between Yun Xu and Cheng Ao at that time, in which Yun Xu did mention asking General Cheng Ao to attack the palace and kidnap the first emperor. After the first emperor learned of this, he immediately sent Liang Yinhao, the second prince at that time and the current emperor, to lead 3,000 forbidden troops to intercept and kill the 10,000 Haotian army brought by Cheng Ao. Liang Yinhao fought hard for a whole day and night, and finally waited for reinforcements, and annihilated all the Haotian army, leaving no one behind. It is precisely because of Huo Pei'an's first notice and Liang Yinhao's courageous protection of the lord that the first emperor was impressed by the two, and also laid the most solid stepping stone for the second prince to become the prince in the future. After Liang Yinhao ascended the throne and became the emperor, Huo Pei'an began to rise to prominence, and in just a few months, he became the prime minister above 10,000 people under one person.

In this way, in addition to Huo Pei'an, there is another thing that benefits the most in the end....

Wei Ming was already in a cold sweat at this moment, and guessed softly: "Is it....is it the emperor?!" ”

After speaking, Wei Ming looked at everyone in disbelief, but everyone in the room bowed their heads and was silent, even Song Xiaoyi, who was kneeling on the ground, hung his head silently.

Wei Ming took a few steps back in horror, as if he could not digest the sudden and terrifying news, he closed his eyes in extreme pain, unable to say a word again.

At this time, Rui Wang Liang Yinhuan, who had not spoken for a long time, said in a deep voice: "Lord Wei, don't be too sad, you really can't be reckless in reversing the case, and you have to think about it in the long run." But one thing is certain, sooner or later, I will have to overturn the case of Yunxiang, and no matter how many difficulties and obstacles will be encountered here, my determination will not change! ”

When Wei Ming opened his eyes again, a clear stream slipped from the corner of his eyes, and he said sadly: "The old man admitted that he had read countless people, but he didn't expect that he still had no eyes, and he had wronged Yun Xu for so many years, and he had wronged King Rui in vain....The new emperor who assisted wholeheartedly was actually ......."

Wei Ming didn't continue, although he now knew that Liang Yinhao had obtained the throne by such unbearable means, but as a loyal minister, Wei Ming still couldn't say too much bad things about the emperor behind his back. In the end, he only laughed at himself: "It's so ridiculous to think about it now." (To be continued.) )
