Chapter 496: Break Yourself

Wu Hao originally wanted to go directly with his light skills, after all, the suburbs are not too far, and they will arrive in a while, but when he thought of this, there was a Song Yuyu and some people brought by Song Yuyu with him, although Wu Hao didn't know much about the affairs in the court, but this person's official looked quite big, mainly he was also a person trusted by Qin Zhao, so Wu Hao still found a few horses and took them to the suburbs together.

Zhou Cheng has actually thought about his own results for a long time, it is undeniable that he participated in the rebellion no matter what, since he participated in the rebellion, he may not survive, but Zhou Chengcheng only has one request, that is, he hopes not to involve his family, after all, his family is innocent, but this also depends on Qin Zhao's meaning, and whether Qin Zhao is willing to let him go, right?

"Phewβ€”"

Several people rode horses to the front of this big mansion on the outskirts of the capital, the soldiers were indeed hard along the way, almost all of them were resting near the house, and they all got up when they saw Wu Hao coming, Wu Hao turned over and dismounted, Wu Hao waved his hand to signal them to continue to rest, and then directly pushed open the door and walked in.

"Captain, you're back, what's the situation on the emperor's side? Is it okay to handle? Ye Lin saw that Wu Hao was back, and hurriedly stepped forward to ask.

"The people who should be arrested have been arrested, it's probably not bad," Wu Hao replied, then turned around and introduced Song Yuyu to Ye Lin who came with him, "This is Lord Song, who was sent by the emperor to light the food in this house, you send a few people to count the grain with Lord Song." ”

"Yes," Ye Lin received the order, and casually called a few soldiers to come forward, Song Yuyu was not familiar with Wu Hao, so he didn't say much, thanked him and waited for someone to go to the house to count the food.

"How's it going? What does the emperor plan to do with Zhou Cheng? Ye Lin saw that Song Yuyu was gone, so he lowered his voice and asked, after all, he is also an old partner with Wu Hao, Wu Hao's opinion of Zhou Cheng is very clear in his heart, and naturally the most concerned issue is this problem.

"The emperor is magnanimous, he didn't intend to kill him, that is, he said that he would abolish his position, demote him to a commoner, and never be an official" Wu Hao sighed, replied, and then turned his head to look at Zhou Cheng, who was still resting with his eyes closed, "But I didn't plan to let him go so easily, since he participated in the rebellion, he would have to pay the corresponding price, which is absolutely not wrong." ”

"Understood, then do you want to leave this matter to your subordinates?" Ye Lin nodded, after all, this kind of person will have endless troubles if he stays, so it is better to make a decision immediately and do things cleanly.

"Don't panic, I'll go talk to him a few words," Wu Hao shook his head, walked to Zhou Cheng's side, and said, "General Zhou, wake up." ”

As a soldier, sleep has always been shallow, and when Wu Hao called him like this, Zhou Cheng immediately woke up, and immediately got up and stood up, although he was not used to Wu Hao, but anyway, he now has a handle in the hands of others, so his attitude is still as gentle as possible.

"I just came back from the palace, do you want to know what's going on over there?" Wu Hao looked at Zhou Chengde's expression, and then spoke.

"Don't go around the bend with me anymore, just say it directly if you have anything to say, it's all big men, don't play these twists and turns," Zhou Cheng was too lazy to deal with Wu Hao anymore, so he simply spoke.

"Okay, since General Zhou wants me to say it directly, then I will be blunt," Wu Hao didn't think there was anything, so he opened his mouth to answer, "Mu Shang has been arrested, and he will be beheaded on a certain day, their Mu family has fallen, and there will be no Mu family in the future." ”

"What about me, what is the emperor's sentence on me, do you follow Mu Shang to ask for beheading?" Zhou Cheng had already been mentally prepared, even if he told him now that he would die immediately, he would not be surprised, after all, when he embarked on this road, Zhou Chengcheng had already imagined the worst outcome, and the only thing he was worried about was whether his family would be involved.

"That's still not it, the emperor is still very good to you," Wu Hao was a little yin and yang. opened his mouth and said, "The emperor has temporarily defected to you, so he doesn't plan to sentence you to death, nor does he intend to take your life, but he just wants to remove your official position, demote you to a commoner, and you will never be an official." After Wu Hao finished speaking, he quietly looked at Zhou Chengde's expression, wanting to see what Zhou Cheng's expression was.

"Really? What about my family? Zhou Cheng's face was really a little surprised, after all, he really thought that Qin Zhao would kill him and Mu Shang together.

"The emperor doesn't even want your life, why do you want your family," Seeing Zhou Cheng so happy, Wu Hao couldn't help rolling his eyes in his heart, the emperor has a good heart, but his Wu Hao's heart is not as good as the emperor.

"That's good! That's good! As long as it doesn't involve my family, everything is easy to say! Zhou Cheng's happy face bloomed, the problem he was most worried about was finally solved, then he had nothing to regret, "But you shouldn't let me go, right?" ”

Wu Hao didn't expect Zhou Cheng to say such a sentence, he was stunned for a while, he didn't know how to answer, and he slowed down for a while before he spoke, "Yes, I really didn't plan to let you go, but don't think too much, I don't want to let you go, but it's not because of my personal grudge with you, but for the sake of the emperor, keep it, who knows if you will be resentful?" And then to take revenge in the future? ”

"Of course I also know that you didn't do this because of personal grudges," Zhou Cheng knew that his family would not be harmed, and then he was in a good mood, "But it doesn't matter now, I am a guilty body, and the emperor can be gracious to let my family go, I am already very grateful, so you want my life, I am naturally understandable, but you don't need to do it yourself, I will decide it myself." ”

Seeing that Zhou Cheng was so refreshing, Wu Hao was a little surprised, is this still the original Zhou Cheng? It's really unimaginable, but since he said so himself, then Wu Hao won't bother to make any more moves, and Zhou Chengken will naturally make his own decision, which is naturally the best result, lest they have to work hard.

As good as he spoke, Song Yuyu and the others had already counted the approximate amount, but I have to say that the amount of grain here is really huge, and so much grain that Mu Shang painstakingly got finally returned to Qin Zhao's hands, which is really providential.

"Has Lord Song's food been counted?" Wu Hao solved the matter on Zhou Cheng's side, and he was in a very good mood, and when he saw Song Yuyu coming out, he opened his mouth to say hello.

"Yes," Song Yuyu replied as he looked at the list of statistics in his hand.
