Chapter 412: I won't recognize my ancestors and return to my ancestors
Jia Yue looked at the study at home, and suddenly sighed with emotion, he walked around the study for a long time, and then arrived at the place where the account book was hidden before.
It was the corner of the bookshelf, which had been burned by this time, and his hand had reached inside, and suddenly it seemed as if he had found something.
He hurriedly removed the bookshelf, which had been burned to the ground, and it fell apart when he touched it, and he didn't care about getting dirty, so he continued to pick it up, and finally saw what was underneath.
He finally saw that it was only half of the ledger left, and it was full of holes and traces of fire, but some of the words in it could still be seen clearly.
"Ben Jiang looked at the file in Jingzhao Mansion, and the file said that your wife was found in the study, but your two sons were in the inner room, and Ben Jiang felt that your wife seemed to want to protect something, until you said that there was an account book, Ben Jiang didn't remember." Chu Nanyue looked at Jia Yue, tears were already flowing from Jia Yue's eyes, and he obviously already knew something.
His wife had already thought that maybe it was because of the ledger, so she protected the ledger before she died.
Although this ledger is broken, it can be regarded as a piece of evidence that can accuse Wei Guogong.
Just when Jia Yue was already in tears, suddenly a servant outside the door came in in a panic: "Oh no, my lord!" Zhao Tang has an accident! ”
Chu Nanyue hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" ”
The official was already out of breath, and reported to Chu Nanyue: "Your Excellency will know when you go back!" ”
Chu Nanyue hurriedly returned to the county office, only to find that a man in his fifties was subdued to the ground, and Zhao Tang had blood stains on his body.
This Zhao Tang is a key witness in Wei Guogong's case, if something happens like this, what should Wei Guogong's case do?
"Call the doctor! In any case, what medicine to use, you must treat Zhao Tang! Chu Nanyue gave an order, and the county commander hurriedly went to call the doctor in person.
But the subdued villager said: "This kind of scum, he should be called dead!" How did he kill Ning'er's family in the first place! In the past 30 years, I have not been able to eat or sleep well, and now the murderer is right in front of me! I just hate that I can't just kill him with one sword! ”
That Zhao Tang was seriously injured, but his face was full of tears, and he said to the villager: "I know that the mistakes I made have been irreparable, but I have always felt guilty all these years, so when Zhou An is arrested and brought to justice, I will personally come over and let you slaughter!" ”
And Na Jia Yue also said bitterly: "When I found him, I really wanted to kill him with a knife, but after so many years, I know that everything was done by Zhou An, so I hate Zhou An even more, he is a key witness in this case, think about it carefully!" ”
The villager knelt on the ground with his head in pain, he hadn't married a wife all these years, he just couldn't let go of Xiao Ning, and wanted to avenge her, but he didn't expect it......
At this time, his heart was already full of grief, and he couldn't accept the current situation at all.
Chu Nanyue looked at the scene in front of her, she felt very uncomfortable in her heart, she sighed, and said to the county: "Let his family take him back first." ”
The county commander nodded hurriedly, and when this person's family came, the doctor also came.
The doctor looked at the injuries on Zhao Tang's body and rejoiced: "Fortunately, this knife wound is not too deep, just recuperate."
"Can he still travel long distances?" Chu Nanyue hurriedly asked again, this trip to the county, the thing she regretted the most was to bring Zhao Tang.
"I can do it, General Chu!" Zhao Tang said repeatedly, he only wants to see evil retribution this week, and he doesn't want to care about his injuries at all.
Chu Nanyue also looked at the doctor in front of him very worriedly, and the doctor pondered for a moment: "It's not impossible, but it's best to have a doctor with you......"
Hearing this, Chu Nanyue directly ordered: "Then you follow us directly." ”
The doctor was stunned for a long time before he reacted: "General Chu, this ......"
Chu Nanyue directly stretched out five fingers: "Fifty taels of silver!" ”
The doctor suddenly had no worries, and said with a smile: "The grass people are naturally very happy. ”
She stayed with the three of them in the county government office for another night, and the next morning she set off with human and material evidence.
This time I went back, because I took into account Zhao Tang's injury, so I didn't travel too fast, and it took three days and three nights to return to the capital.
At this time, Wei Guogong also reported directly to the emperor with the so-called "evidence" he made.
It was several housekeepers and servants in the previous mansion, all of whom were bought by Wei Guogong with money, and they all pointed out: "It was indeed the palace where the lady left with her child, and it has nothing to do with Wei Guogong and Wei Guogong."
They all swore by each other, and they also took out the evidence of the year, and even the golden lock of Zhou Yuanqi back then.
Zhou Yuanqi was on top of the main hall, because he was not in good health, so the emperor gave him a seat, and he sat in the main hall without saying a word, making people unable to guess their inner thoughts.
Seeing that Wei Guogong had already found evidence, the emperor also felt that there was no need to discuss this matter, he looked at Zhou Yuanqi in front of him, and asked Zhou Yuanqi: "Then it is true that you should recognize your ancestors and return to your ancestors this time, and your father and son should indeed untie the knot between you." ”
Zhou Yuanqi's face was not particularly good, his tone was stubborn, and he reported to the emperor: "Your Majesty, the last general does not want to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors, and besides, there are already three sons and one daughter in the family of the Duke of Weiguo, and the last general feels that it is not necessary." ”
It is true that he already has three sons and one daughter, but none of these four children have been in the court and have passed the fifth grade, so Wei Guogong desperately wants Zhou Yuanqi to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors.
But on the surface, Wei Guogong said with a fake look: "No matter how many sons I have, Yuan Qi, you are my son, you were taken away by your mother when you were young, and now that your father has found you, he wants to make up for you." ”
He looked like a loving father, which made Zhou Yuanqi want to laugh when he heard it, and raised his eyebrows and asked: "Then when I was desperate to beg you for the Guogong Mansion, why didn't you say that you have a deep relationship with my father and son?" When I was forced to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy and die nine times for the rest of my life, why didn't the adults talk to me about the relationship between father and son? Do you have to wait until I am successful and famous for adults to recognize me as a son, right? ”
After being counted so many bad things, this Wei Guogong didn't feel ashamed or embarrassed at all, but sighed: "At the beginning, I just didn't know that you were really my son, there are so many people who come and go every day, and people often come to my Wei Guogong Mansion to pretend, but later I saw Yuan Qi's heroic appearance, which can be regarded as confirmation, you are really my son." ”
Seeing that Wei Guogong was not ashamed but proud, Zhou Yuanqi didn't want to say a word, his face was red, and he coughed twice.
Wei Guogong saw that Zhou Yuanqi's face was not good, and he pretended to be considerate and went up to help Zhou Yuanqi pat his back.
didn't want to hit Zhou Yuanqi and directly dodged Wei Guogong's hand, which made Wei Guogong very embarrassed.
At this time, the emperor couldn't stand it, he thought that he was also a father, so he still paid attention to filial piety, so he persuaded Zhou Yuanqi and said: "General Zhou, I look at this matter, forget it, the past is over, Wei Guogong has a hard time, since Wei Guogong is now planning to compensate you, you should accept Wei Guogong's compensation, recognize your ancestors and return to your ancestors, have parents and brothers, it is always better than being alone." ”
Who knew that Zhou Yuanqi knelt down directly and said to the emperor very firmly: "Your Majesty, the last general will resolutely not recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors." ”
