Emperor Changming actually doesn't want to pursue Guo Tong now, he just wants a reasonable explanation at this time, so that he can have a step down between the people, and the feeling of being threatened by these untouchables is really terrible, but he has to take into account the voices of the people.

Now that Guo Tong has a reasonable explanation, Emperor Changming doesn't want to hold on to it anymore, but he doesn't want to let him go so easily, so he still said with a gloomy face: "Even if you don't know, it's a crime that deserves death, you say, how do you want me to punish you?" ”

Although Guo Tong said that the crime deserved death, but when the matter came to an end, of course he would not stupidly say that he was bent on death, and he didn't know what Emperor Changming meant, just Emperor Changming, a greedy person, wanted everything, and it was obvious that he was hinting at himself at this time.

So Guo Tong knelt on the ground, and said with a sincere expression of remorse: "Your Majesty, Wechen is guilty, and Wechen is willing to hand over all the ten thousand taels of silver money from the sale of rice and grain this time and confiscate it to the treasury to prove Wechen's remorse." ”

Hearing that Guo Tong was willing to let blood so much, Emperor Changming still decided to suppress this matter, after all, there are still benefits to be gained by pressing down, this Guo Tong, to be honest, is quite easy to use.

After they burst out the evidence. was also waiting for Emperor Changming's punishment of Guo Tong, but seeing that Emperor Changming was still bent on keeping Guo Tong, he was completely disappointed in him.

"Forget it, let's list all the evidence in one go, so that all the people in the capital know who caused this incident." Feng was helpless, he didn't expect Emperor Changming to be so stubborn.

So overnight, notices with evidence of Guo Tong's crimes were plastered all over the city, and the strips on them pointed to Guo Tong as the mastermind behind the outbreak of the spotted plague, with the purpose of being promoted and making a fortune.

The people gathered around the notice that suddenly appeared, and the people who knew the words helped read it out loud, of course, there were still many Wei Rong factions in the crowd who used to fan the flames, "Folks, this Guo Tong is too hateful, he hoarded rice and grain, we just lost some money, it doesn't matter, but after this spotted plague came out, how many people died outside the capital!" ”

"Yes! His conscience was eaten by dogs! Come up with this poisonous scheme! "We must let the Holy One kill him!" "Kill Guo Tong!" No one among the people can endure it this time, how can they turn a blind eye to so many people who have died.

So all the people stood up to protest to Emperor Changming, and as early as the court, there were countless officials who played to Emperor Changming, saying that they must deal with Guo Tong, especially Xiang Taifu, who pointed at Guo Tong in the court and scolded a dog's blood spray, if he wasn't afraid of losing his honor in front of the palace, he would probably take off his shoes and beat him directly.

"Your Majesty, this Guo Tong's crime is extremely heinous, and his crime should be punished! If you don't punish him, it will be difficult to block the mouth of the world! Xiang Taifu led a group of people to kneel in front of the main hall and pleaded.

Guo Tong also knelt on the ground and trembled, he didn't expect things to develop to this point, he didn't know if he could keep his head, he didn't dare to speak anymore, he just trembled below.

The matter was so big, Emperor Changming also knew that he could no longer keep Guo Tong, and this Guo Tong caused such a big mess for himself, which also made Emperor Changming feel bored, so he directly abandoned him. Hanlian literature

"Okay, Dali Temple Cheng Guo Tong, I will remove your official position today and demote you to a lowly status, Guo Tong himself will be assigned to the army, his wife and daughter will be merged into the Sijiao Workshop, and Guo's house will be raided!" Emperor Changming ordered directly.

Although Guo Tong was not killed directly, thinking that he was dismissed from office and had to be exiled to the army, it was better to live than to die, and the officials did not object anymore, and the people felt a little relieved.

In fact, the biggest benefit of this matter is Emperor Changming, he didn't do anything, but his subordinates did such things, and finally Emperor Changming also had money and reputation, and finally he was able to exile Guo Tong to suppress the people's complaints.

Guo Tong didn't expect that he had exhausted his organs, but in the end he ended up like this, and he was helpless, he thought that Emperor Changming would not do such a desperate thing, and he would leave him some furniture, but he didn't expect Emperor Changming to be directly copied from his house, but he couldn't help it, Emperor Changming was willing to leave him a small life, which was already considered an extrajudicial favor.

But before Guo Tong was happy that he had saved his life, not long after the officers and soldiers who escorted him took him out of the capital, he encountered several killers in black.

"Our target is just the thief Guo Tong, you dodge, we don't want to embarrass you!" The man in black held his sword and said coldly, those two officers and soldiers didn't want to die for Guo Tong, so they left Guo Tong and ran away.

"Come back! Come back! Guo Tong was also anxious when he saw the officers and soldiers running away, he turned around and knelt down and begged: "Brothers, please let me go, I still have a house in the capital, which is also worth more than 100,000 taels, if you let me go, I will offer it with both hands." ”

But the two killers didn't hear it, and directly stabbed them with a sword, "Phew! Take your stuff, I hate dirty hands! ”

After Guo Tong died, he was hung on the city gate, and the people were very happy when they saw it, and they all spit on his corpse and threw rotten eggs at him.

Guo Tong is dead, and Emperor Changming doesn't care at all, in his heart, Guo Tong has long been a waste person, and if he dies, he will die, so he didn't pursue the person who made the shot, and at this time, the attention of the people was pulled away by Guo Tong, and no one would mention the burning of the village anymore.

On the afternoon of Feng Shencai's wake-up, Wei Ruhua knew that Feng Shencai had returned to Wei's mansion, so he also went to his room to see him.

But when Wei Ruhua saw Feng Sheng lying on the bed, he was stunned, because two months ago, his cheeks were full of energy, but now he has become skinny, his cheeks are sunken, and his clothes are empty on his body, and he doesn't know how many sins he has suffered.

"Feng Shenhui, how did you become like this, there is nothing wrong with your body, right?" Wei Ruhua asked very worriedly, "Why didn't the imperial doctor who followed you help you treat it?" Didn't you faint before, how is it, do you have sequelae? What can I do? ”

Feng Shencai saw Wei Ruhua's anxious face, and quickly shook his head to comfort her: "Don't worry, Ruhua, I'm really fine, I'm just tired, I've taken medicine for several days and I've come back with some vitality, continue to recuperate for a few days, and raise the meat." ”
