Chapter 413: Confronting Wei Guogong
"You!" Seeing that Zhou Yuanqi's persuasion was useless, the emperor directly pointed at Zhou Yuanqi and said angrily: "General Zhou, I think you are toasting and not eating and drinking!" ”
Just when the emperor was about to directly issue an order for Zhou Yuanqi to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors, a eunuch suddenly came to preach with him: "Report! Your Majesty! General Chu asks to see! ”
The emperor's face softened a little, and he waved his sleeves and said, "Call General Chu in." ”
Chu Nanyue came in, saluted the emperor, and then reported to the emperor: "Your Majesty, the last general has come this time to impeach the Duke of Weiguo." ”
"Oh?" The emperor smiled sarcastically, and he felt in his heart that this was a trick made by Chu Nanyue who didn't want Zhou Yuanqi to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors, so he asked, "What do you want to impeach Wei Guogong?" ”
Chu Nanyue glanced at Wei Guogong, Wei Guogong's face did not change in the slightest, so she replied: "The last general impeached Wei Guogong for accepting bribes when he was serving as a county magistrate in the county thirty years ago, and also found out that Wei Guogong was the murderer of the tragedy of twenty-five families in six families in the county thirty years ago. ”
Chu Nanyue said these words with a calm face, but one stone stirred up a thousand waves, which made the emperors on the throne feel very shocked: "General Chu, is this matter serious?" ”
Chu Nanyue kowtowed to the emperor: "Your Majesty, the last general is willing to use the last general's head to guarantee, this matter is absolutely true." ”
This Duke Wei Guo was stupid when he heard what Chu Nanyue said, that was the most ruthless thing he did when he was young, after this matter was known to the Duchess of Weiguo, she threatened him for many years, everyone thought that he was a strict wife, but no one knew that it was the Duchess of Wei Guo who kept threatening him.
He was really panicked when he saw Chu Nanyue's conclusive evidence.
"Your Majesty, the files and evidence of the case have been brought by the general, and the witnesses are already waiting outside the palace." Seeing Wei Guogong's pale face, Chu Nanyue continued.
I saw that after Wei Guogong listened to the witnesses and witnesses, he immediately broke out in a cold sweat, and it happened that the emperor happened to look at him at this time and asked, "Wei Guogong, is this matter true?" ”
How dare this Wei Guogong say that it is true? Hurriedly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, Weichen has been wronged!" Wechen hasn't done those things! ”
Chu Nanyue saw that Wei Guogong was still lying at this time, and looked at Wei Guogong's face full of disdain: "Whether it's true or not, we'll know when the evidence and witnesses come out." ”
Wei Guogong forcibly calmed himself down and said to Chu Nanyue: "But who knows if General Chu's evidence is real? Maybe General Chu framed you? ”
"The King of Bei'an and the Yin of Jingzhao Mansion are all involved in this matter, does Lord Wei Guogong think that the last general will frame you together with the King of Bei'an and Lord Yin of Jingzhao Mansion?" As soon as Chu Nanyue moved out of King Bei'an and Zhang Song, this Duke of Wei immediately stopped talking.
"Okay, okay, don't argue, let's go directly to the witnesses." The Emperor rubbed his temples and said impatiently.
Chu Nanyue didn't say much, and directly presented the letter written by Zhou An to Zhao Tang and the account book found in Jia Yue's house, and said: "This letter is the letter written when Lord Wei Guogong bought the murder, and there was also a piece of Wei Guogong's jade pendant at that time, and this account book is evidence of corruption when Lord Wei Guogong was a county magistrate many years ago. ”
"Wronged!" Wei Guogong saw that the matter was about to be revealed, and hurriedly shouted that he was wronged.
The emperor didn't believe him anymore at this time, and directly snorted coldly: "Wronged? What have you wronged? Witnesses come up! ”
The first person to come up was Jia Yue, although Jia Yue had been sleeping in the open for so many years, his face was only old, and he hadn't changed much, so Wei Guogong still recognized him at first sight, and said, "You are?" Jia Yue? ”
Jia Yue saw Wei Guogong at this time, he really hated a million people, he first saluted the emperor, and then cried and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, the grass people are the victims of the original extermination case, the grass people have been wandering outside for thirty years, just to find out the truth and avenge their families!" ”
This Jia Yue looked like a poor man, and his tearful appearance made the emperor a little unbearable to look at it, and hurriedly said to Jia Yue: "Just say it slowly." ”
Jia Yue hurriedly said: "Your Majesty Xie is sympathetic, at the beginning, this Wei Guogong was a county magistrate in the county, and he was honest on the surface, but in fact, he was corrupt and bribed, and the people in the county were miserable, so the grass people and other people in the county jointly got the evidence of Wei Guogong's bribery, and wanted to report it together, who knew that at this time, the original Wei Guogong died......
Jia Yue told all the things that happened before with a handful of snot and tears, and looked at this man in his sixties crying in public, and everyone present was a little unbearable.
After listening to what Jia Yue said, the emperor even softened his voice: "Since you have experienced such a thing, then I will definitely seek justice for you, you can rest assured, if what you say is true, I will severely punish Wei Guogong!" ”
Jia Yue hurriedly kowtowed to the emperor: "Thank you, Your Majesty!" ”
And then, it was Zhao Tang who came up, Zhao Tang was picked up because of the disability of his legs, Wei Guogong didn't know the person in front of him at all, and muttered: "Back to Your Majesty, this person, Weichen doesn't know it." ”
At this time, Zhao Tang couldn't help but speak: "Lord Zhou really doesn't know who the grass people are?" ”
Zhou An was really familiar when he heard this voice, so he took a closer look at this Zhao Tang, it doesn't matter if he doesn't look at it, he carefully identified it before he asked uncertainly: "Are you ...... Zhao Tang? ”
Zhao Tang snorted coldly: "The grass people's disability is all due to the adults, it's hard for the adults to remember the grass people." ”
"Your Majesty, this Zhao Tang and Jia Yue were both people who had a quarrel with the minister, and it was really unfair for them to be witnesses, and it is not excluded that the two of them have been planning together for many years, just to frame Weichen." Wei Guogong thought for a moment, and thought that he had come up with a perfect excuse.
Who knows, but was coldly poked by Chu Nanyue: "I crippled my legs and killed twenty-five people, just to frame Lord Zhou?" Lord Zhou, you look down on yourself. ”
Wei Guogong thought that his words were really wrong, but he still said cheekily: "People in this world are unpredictable, maybe this is really the case? ”
Chu Nanyue snorted coldly: "Your words are really ridiculous, my lord, let's listen to what Zhao Tang said first, right?" ”
After Zhao Tang finished talking about the events of the past 20 years, even the emperor felt strange this time, and asked, "How did you kill those six households and twenty-five people in the first place?" ”
Zhao Tang said truthfully: "At that time, the grass people knew some martial arts, and it was already late at night, and everyone was asleep, so the grass people had to do it." ”
After finishing speaking, Zhao Tang pleaded again: "The grass people know that they are guilty, but they still have a wrong, and the grass people hope that they can be executed in the county in order to settle the grievances of those who have lost their relatives in the county." ”
