Chapter 338: Retrial of Unjust Cases
Mu Xuefu saw that he was in a trance, and the hand that was holding Jingxi's neck also loosened. With a flash of light in his eyes, he took advantage of Mu Junxuan's distraction to distract him, swept by like a light cloud, and snatched Jing Xi back from his hand.
Mu Zhaolin had no hostages, Jing Yu looked at it at a glance, and shouted: "Take down the left minister!" He pointed to Qu Changfu and the others, "And them, take them together!" ”
"The emperor spares his life, the emperor spares his life!"
"Weichen was confused for a while, please forgive the emperor."
Jing Yu's sharp eyes burst out of the scorching sun, "Now let me spare my life and let me forgive my sins?" It's late! You usually flaunt how loyal and patriotic you are, but in the end you point your sword at me, you are really my good loyal ministers! ”
shouted to Mu Zhaolin again: "Mu Zhaolin, what else do you have to say now!" ”
Mu Zhaolin still didn't give up, pointed at Jing Yu and said, "Don't think that I will lose if I do this!" He shouted, "The Praetorian Guards obey the order and kill all the people in the Golden Luan Palace!" ”
"Father doesn't need to shout anymore, all the Praetorian Guards you ambushed nearby have been taken by me." Mu Zemao stepped forward and said.
Mu Zhaolin staggered a few steps, pointed at Mu Zemao with trembling fingers, and then pointed at Mu Junmao, "You guys······ You're all in cahoots! You sons of wretchedness, sons of iniquity! ”
"Take him down to me!" Jingyu Road.
Mu Zhaolin was suppressed by the guards, he struggled a few times and then stopped struggling, slowly closed his eyes, had already accepted his fate, and said with a wry smile: "I didn't expect that I ended up betraying my relatives in the end." He Huo Ran opened his eyes and looked directly at Jing Yu, "If you become a king or lose a villain, how will the emperor deal with it." ”
Mu Yurong's water-stained eyes looked at Jing Yu, she finally couldn't bear it, knelt down and pleaded for Mu Zhaolin: "Your Majesty, please spare his life for the sake of the concubine's father who has supported you for many years and is old." ”
Jing Yu helped her up, paused again and again, and said, "Rong'er, your father committed a capital crime. ”
"The concubine knows." Mu Xuefu couldn't bear it, glanced at Mu Zhaolin, and said abruptly: "Your Majesty, the concubine has never begged you, this time the concubine begged you." He was guilty of a capital crime, but he was the father of a concubine. ”
Fan Zheng saw that Jing Yu was moved, and immediately said: "Your Majesty, Mu Zhaolin killed the monarch and rebelled, the crime is unforgivable, and the emperor must not be soft-hearted." And his henchmen, too, cannot be indulged lightly. ”
Qu Changfu was already so frightened that the three souls were gone, and his forehead slammed to the ground, "The emperor spares his life, the emperor spares his life, Weichen is guilty, Weichen is blinded by lard to listen to Zuo Xiang's words, they are all instructed by Zuo Xiang, and they have nothing to do with Weichen." ”
Mu Zhaolin looked at him with disdain, and said sarcastically in a cold voice, "See the dog thing that makes the wind rudder!" ”
Jing Rong said: "Master Qu, you told this king that you want to thank Zuo Xiang for his promotion for many years, and you will definitely repay the favor!" Why has it become irrelevant to you now? ”
"This ······ This ······" Qu Changfu was speechless for a long time.
The moment she saw Qu Changfu, Mu Xuefu wanted to kill him, and when Jing Rong said this, she couldn't help but look at Mu Zhaolin suspiciously.
She always thought that Qu Changfu was Jing Lingcang's person, so she naturally thought that Qu Changfu framed her father at the behest of Jing Lingcang, but now she said that Qu Changfu was promoted by Mu Zhaolin all the way, which gave her an incredible idea in her heart. The moment this thought formed in her mind, she was like being struck by lightning, and her face was suddenly bloodless.
Then she shook her head, swept away the ridiculous thoughts in her head, and muttered, "Impossible, impossible." ”
Xu is Mu Xuefu's gaze at Mu Zhaolin was too hot, Mu Zhaolin was caught off guard, he understood the meaning in Mu Xuefu's eyes, and hung his head in a panic.
That was the last secret he wanted to mention, and he didn't want Mu Xuefu to know, who knew that Qu Changfu couldn't care about anything in order to save his life.
"Your Majesty, Wechen knows a big secret from Zuo Xiang, if Wechen says it, I don't know if the emperor can deal with it lightly and spare Wechen's life?" Qu Changfu knelt on the ground, like a dog wagging his tail and begging for mercy, but he was not as good as a dog, at least dogs were more loyal than him.
Mu Zhaolin was annoyed, and shouted angrily: "Qu Changfu, don't slander your true appearance!" ”
Jing Yu was sitting on the dragon chair with a royal temperament, not angry and arrogant, "Qu Changfu said. ”
Qu Changfu no longer had any scruples, and spit out all the things he knew and participated in like a peanut.
"Does the emperor still remember the incident of Mu Qiying, the general of Zhenguo, who defected to the enemy and treasoned sixteen years ago and wiped out the whole family?"
Mu Xuefu's face instantly seemed to be drained of blood, her feet were weak, and she almost fell, but fortunately Jing Rong was by her side.
Jing Yu's eyebrows swelled slightly, and he said, "I remember." He looked at Mu Zhaolin, "What does this have to do with Zuo Xiang?" ”
Qu Changfu said: "There is a relationship, and there is a great relationship. Because General Zhenguo actually did not collaborate with the enemy and treason, everything was plotted and framed by the left minister. ”
He said slowly: "Xia Guan was a deputy general under General Zhenguo, and because he was tempted by the interests of the left minister, he forged evidence that General Zhenguo collaborated with the enemy and committed treason. He said that after the matter was completed, he would transfer me back to Beijing, and I would no longer have to suffer the bitter cold of war. Weichen was confused for a while, so he agreed to the matter. ”
The thunder broke out, Mu Xuefu's tears flowed out uncontrollably, and she suddenly remembered the woman in Xiao Zhuyuan, she said that someone instigated Jing Lingcang to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, and that person's official position was a waiter.
In the past, she had also investigated the waiters at all levels in the court at that time, but she only forgot that Mu Zhaolin climbed from the waiter of the Criminal Department to the position of the left minister.
Mu Xuefu brushed the scene and walked into Mu Zhaolin step by step, her lips trembled, and her tears were as round and big as pearls, "Is what he said true?" ”
Mu Zhaolin's cheeks twitched, and he denied: "No, I've never done it." I am a sworn brother to your father, so how could I harm him? ”
Saying this, everyone was confused, isn't this Princess Chen the daughter of Zuo Xiang? How can you say that it doesn't seem to be somewhere?
Fan Zheng's eyes lit up, and he looked at Mu Xuefu up and down, "You······ Are you the daughter of General Zhenguo? ”
Speaking of General Zhenguo's defection to the enemy and treason, he also didn't believe it. But at that time, the first emperor was angry with thunder, and those who pleaded for the general of Zhenguo lost their lives, and those who lost their officials and retired, who dared to say anything.
There is no need to hide anything at this time, Mu Xuefu said: "Yes, I am Mu Qiying's daughter." ”
Mu Shulin looked at Mu Zhaolin hatefully, gritted his teeth and said: "Not only her, but also me, I am Mu Shulin, the son of General Zhenguo!" ”
As soon as he said this, there was an uproar in the court.
Mu Zhaolin looked at Mu Shulin in disbelief, and couldn't speak for a long time with his mouth open, "You······ Are you Qiying's son? Are you Shulin? This ······ How is this possible? ”
"What's impossible? Do you think that only you know the secret way? Mu Xuefu was full of anger as if she was about to burn to ashes, her forehead jumped suddenly, she grabbed Mu Zhaolin's collar, and shouted: "You say! What is there to be sorry for you in our general's mansion, where is my father sorry for you, and wants you to frame him for a crime, causing dozens of people in my town and country to die!"
"I didn't hurt him! I didn't! Mu Zhaolin's face turned faintly blue, and he held Mu Xuefu's hand, "Fu'er, you believe your father, your father has never done it." ”
Mu Xuefu shook off his hand, not angry but laughing, but laughing extremely sarcastically, "Father? Haha, father? I have been a thief as my father for more than ten years, more than ten years! ”
Mu Zhaolin just shook his head, "I haven't done it, I haven't harmed Qiying, I haven't!" ”
Jing Yu saw that the gaffe had developed until now, and it was no longer possible to clean it up, so he simply investigated the events of that year. He said to Qu Changfu: "You said that Zuo Xiang framed General Zhenguo, so do you have any evidence?" ”
"The minister has, the minister has, where is the letter that the left minister sent to Weichen back then, it is in the minister's house. There is the handwriting and seal of the left phase on it, and it cannot be faked. "Qu Changfu can sell anything in order to survive, and he didn't burn those letters just in case there will be such a day.
Mu Zhaolin stared at him viciously and said, "You old fox! ”
Qu Changfu also tore his face, smiled coldly, and said: "Compared with Zuo Xiang, Xia Guan is ashamed of himself. Even worshipping the eldest brother can be harmful, if the lower officials don't leave some back, it is unknown which day he will be killed by the left minister. ”
Jing Yu raised his face at Jing Han, "King Rong, you take Qu Changfu to his house to search." ”
At this time, Guan Wenyan was the first to stand up from the crowd, "Your Majesty, the Zhenguo General's Mansion has been loyal and martyred for generations, and Mu Qiying is even more heroic and fearless, and has made great contributions to my Great Qin." Who would have thought that a generation of famous generals was framed by villains, which not only discredited the Zhenguo General's Mansion, but also caused nearly 100 people from the General's Mansion to die in vain. Weichen begged the emperor to set things right in order to set things right. ”
Mu Xuefu bowed down, her long skirt was swaying, and she knelt under the jade steps. Her eyes showed a look of determination, her tongue was against her chin, and she tried her best to control her voice, "Back then, the emperor convicted my Zhenguo General's Mansion before the trial of the three divisions, and immediately ordered the Praetorian Guards to be killed. My father was indistinguishable from the wrongs, and died tragically under the arrows, and there were seventy people in the general's mansion in my town, but my brother and I were left with either death under the sword and arrow, or died in the fire, and the bones were gone, and they were wiped out. For generations, the general's mansion of our town has taken the defense of Daqin as its own responsibility, shrouded in horse leather, donated his body to the field, and finally ended up miserable, and he was even more wronged, the heroic soul of the general of my town and country will never be reconciled, and the descendants of the general of my town will never be reconciled. Her head slammed on the jade steps, "Please ask the emperor to retry the case of General Zhenguo's treason with the enemy." ”
Mu Shulin knelt beside her and touched the ground with his forehead, like a heavy hammer, hitting the chests of everyone in the hall, "Please ask the emperor to order a retrial of the case of the Zhenguo General's Mansion, and return my father's innocence and the innocence of the heroic soul of my Zhenguo General's Mansion." ”
Jing Rong took his robe and knelt down, and knocked again, "Please ask the emperor to retry the case of the Zhenguo General's Mansion to comfort the souls of the sixty-eight people in the Zhenguo General's Mansion." ”
Yongan stretched his sleeves and bowed, "Please ask the emperor to clarify the grievances and retry the case of the Zhenguo General's Mansion." ”
For a time, Fan Zheng, Chu Zhizhong, Gu Mingxu and others came out one after another to ask the emperor to retry the case of the Zhenguo General's Mansion. As soon as these important ministers came out to express their positions, the rest of them also stood up and seconded the proposal.
After some clamour, the hall slowly quieted down, it was a power that contained silence, like all the words were accumulating in the chest, and all the excitement was accumulated in the heart and lungs, just waiting for the next moment to erupt.
It is no longer a momentary impulse, no longer a grass on the wall with the flow, but the voice of the ministers from the heart. Although it is not said, it is even heavier.
"I-quasi-play!"
