Chapter 178: Destroying Relatives in the Righteous Manner

From the moment Lin Xiang stood in the court with Shen Mengjiao's brother, Jiang Kuo knew that everything he had planned before would come to naught.

Today he had no chance of turning the tables around.

The fifth prince looked at his grandfather, who was never willing to give up, and lowered his head for the first time.

At that moment, Su Chen'an panicked directly.

He subconsciously wanted to kneel down and plead for Jiang Kuo.

However, at the moment when he was about to kneel, he saw Jiang Kuo's eyes handed over to him.

The meaning of that look is obvious.

Don't save him.

His maternal grandfather, Jiang Kuo, was telling him with his eyes not to save him.

Because Jiang Kuo knew that no matter what the five princes did, it would be in vain.

The end of his life is already doomed.

Since this is the case, he will definitely not be able to drag His Highness Shuchen An into the water together!

It doesn't matter if he dies, the important thing is that Su Chen'an must live.

Because only when Su Chen'an is still alive can their plan leave a glimmer of life.

"Jiang Kuo, now that this person's evidence and material evidence are all there, at the beginning, you swore evidence in this court, saying that Lin Xiang's family defected to the enemy and treason, and today the truth of the matter is revealed to the world, what else do you need to quibble?"

His Majesty looked at the kneeling courtiers on the ground, and his eyebrows were disappointed.

"Back to Your Majesty, the old minister's skills are not as good as others, so he naturally admits it."

At this moment, Jiang Kuo finally stopped quibbling, he raised his head and glanced at Lin Xiang on the side.

Lin Xiang's character is too upright, and Jiang Kuo has always been unable to grasp any handle from Lin Xiang in government affairs.

But Jiang Kuo clearly knew that if he couldn't bring Lin Xiang down, then he would never be able to stand in the position of a favored minister in this court.

Therefore, he chose to use Shen Mengjiao's chess piece.

Regarding the use of Shen Mengjiao to slander Lin Xiang, Jiang Kuo never regretted it.

Because in his opinion, above the court, you are fighting for me, and there is no love at all.

The only thing Jiang Kuo regrets now is that he couldn't really kill Lin Xiang that day.

Chop the grass and eradicate the roots.

If he hadn't left Lin Xiang as a scourge, he wouldn't have ended up like this today.

This is his fault for not being ruthless enough, not his fault for planning to frame Lin Xiang.

"Since you are willing to confess your sins and surrender to the law, then I will give you a good time!"

His Majesty saw that Jiang Kuo simply admitted all the guilt, and the anger between his eyebrows was even worse.

"Jiang Kuo, framing the court officials, causing Lin Xiang's family to suffer a catastrophe, this matter is extremely evil, today, he is trying to repeat the old tricks in this court, and wants to use the same method to frame the prince Su Lixiao."

"Today, Lone is here to be punished for both crimes!"

"Someone, put Jiang Kuo in the prison, and three days later, he will be executed in public with Kyoto Caishikou, so that the people are angry!"

Your Majesty has the final word.

After Su Chen'an heard this, the whole person almost collapsed directly on the court.

Three days later, the only elder in the world who cared about him was about to be executed! As the fifth prince, he can only stand here and watch all this happen, not only can he not stop it, but he can't even plead for his grandfather!

"Your Highness is here, Lord Jiang has confessed, if he falls in one fell swoop, tell you not to protect him, you must work hard to protect yourself!"

Suddenly, a courtier beside Su Chen'an whispered a reminder to him.

These words made Su Chen'an's heart feel like a knife in an instant.

"Your Highness, now is the best time, if you miss this opportunity, Your Majesty is likely to be implicated in His Highness's guilt because of Lord Jiang!"

Jiang Kuo's henchman on the side whispered to Su Chen'an.

However, letting Su Chen'an watch all this happen was tantamount to torture for him!

How could he still fall into the well at this time in front of his grandfather, who had always supported him?

He couldn't do it!

"Your Highness, you have to think about your own future, think about Concubine Jiang in the harem, for the future of your mother and son, what must you do today!"

This sentence made Su Chen'an have no other worries in his heart.

Yes.

He still wants to live, and his mother Concubine Jiang will continue to live in this world!

If he can't get rid of all the relationships with his grandfather Jiang Kuo now, then he will definitely be affected by his grandfather's affairs in the future!

He experienced the battle between heaven and man in peace of mind, and in the end, he walked from the ministers to His Majesty.

"Father, the son wants to denounce Lord Jiang Kuo."

Su Chen'an knelt on top of the main hall, word by word, and spoke to the monarch in the hall.

As soon as the five princes said this, they immediately made the court explode.

"Are these Five Princes really crazy? Jiang Kuo is Concubine Jiang's father, his maternal grandfather, and now, Jiang Kuo has been brought down by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Lin Xiang, isn't he standing up and saying such words now that he is falling into the well?"

"His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince is really ruthless! Sure enough, there is no one in this royal family who is easy to mess with, and in my opinion, this dog that can't bark hurts the most!"

"If I were Jiang Kuo, I would be completely chilled by His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince!"

The courtiers in the court talked about it, and His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince straightened his back, and took in all the sarcastic words of those behind him.

These are all things he has changed! Look at the book

Since he betrayed his grandfather in front of everyone, he is bound to end up where he is today.

The courtiers on the side all pity Jiang Kuo and now that he has been killed by his own grandson, but in fact, Jiang Kuo does not feel that the fifth prince has done anything wrong.

He was even more pleased that the fifth prince was finally no longer willful.

In the past, he had always hoped that the Five Princes could become more ruthless and stronger, and today, he finally saw a different side in the Five Princes.

This is the most gratifying thing for Jiang Kuo.

"Fifth Prince, what do you mean by this? Do you know who is kneeling in this hall now?"

His Majesty looked at Su Chen'an, who took the initiative to stand up and identify Jiang Kuo, and there was a lot more obscurity between his eyebrows.

He didn't expect that Su Chen'an would stand up and identify Jiang Kuo at this time.

Last time, His Majesty reprimanded the five princes in this court, and it was Jiang Kuo who stood up and took all the blame for Su Chen'an.

At that time, His Majesty felt that he was going to lose the prince of Suchen'an forever.

Because, Jiang Kuo's closeness will make Su Chen'an get closer and closer to the Jiang family, rather than close to him, who is the emperor.

"Father, the son knows who is kneeling in the palace today, but the son is also the prince of this country, and he can't just watch the courtiers in the court do something that harms the society of the country and ignore it."

Su Chen'an hardened his heart and raised his eyes to look at His Majesty.

"Okay, in that case, Fifth Prince, you have to listen carefully, what do you want to accuse Jiang Kuo?"

His Majesty looked at the five princes in front of him, and suddenly felt that perhaps the relationship between him and the five princes was not irretrievable.

Because his son still knows what is right and wrong.

"Father, many years ago, you once sent Jiang Kuo to Guangxi, he has been an official in that place for many years, Guangxi is a tea city, and most of the tea sold in Kyoto comes from Guangxi."

"Erchen received a report from the Guangxi General Army not long ago, and now, he handed over this letter to his father about Jiang Kuo."

Su Chen'an took the letter handed to him by Jiang Kuo's henchman, and then presented it to His Majesty.

His Majesty took a look at the unopened letter before opening it, and then went through the contents of the letter one by one.

Written in the letters

Naturally, when Jiang Kuo was in Guangxi, he taught and received it privately with local officials.

"Fifth Prince, why did you just give this letter to Gu today?"

His Majesty held the letter in his hand and asked His Highness.

"This letter mentions that Jiang Kuo is doing evil in Guangxi, if you had known about these things, you would have naturally informed Gu earlier, and Gu could get rid of Jiang Kuo as an official for the people of Guangxi as soon as possible!"

His Majesty was furious at all the things mentioned in the letter.

He didn't expect that Jiang Kuo, who used to look very honest, would do so many excessive things in the years when he was released.

"Father, the minister heard about Guangxi a few days ago, but the son suffered from no evidence, and today it happened that the letter from the Guangxi General Army to report Jiang Kuo came, so the son took it with him, thinking that he would present it to his father in the court today."

Su Chen'an knew that this was Jiang Kuo protecting him.

Therefore, he must not be able to show the slightest sympathy for his grandfather.

Not only can he not sympathize, but he also has to be cruel to his grandfather Jiang Kuo, and only the heaviest blow comes from his hand, which can alleviate his father's suspicion of him and his grandfather.

"This is that Erchen didn't expect the crown prince and the royal brother to report Jiang Kuo in this hall today, so he didn't have time to take these things out for a while."

Su Chen'an's words can also be justified.

"The five princes made a mistake today, and it can be regarded as a righteous death of relatives, and Lone is very appreciative of your family-oriented approach."

His Majesty opened his mouth and praised the five princes.

"Jiang Kuo's matter was done by him alone, Lone is Mingjun, and it is impossible to implicate this matter on someone who has nothing to do with it."

"So, Chen'an, you go back and tell your mother that no matter what happens, she is the Jiang Concubine in the harem."

His Majesty's words can be regarded as a reassuring pill for Su Chen'an and Jiang Kuo.

As long as the sin is not as good as the children, Jiang Kuo will never have any regrets!

"Your Highness the Crown Prince, are we going to continue our previous plan today?"

Lin Xiang looked at Su Lixiao on the side and spoke softly.

Their plan today is not only to pull Jiang Kuo off the horse, but also to avenge Ming Xiu and those who were suppressed by Su Chen'an.

Previously, they thought that after pulling Jiang Kuo off the horse, His Majesty would be held accountable for what Su Chen'an had done because he was angry.

But I never expected that Su Chen'an would be so ruthless, and break his wrist directly in front of them.

Now, if they mention the evil things that Su Chen'an has done in front of His Majesty, His Majesty will definitely see that Su Chen'an has just killed his relatives righteously, and will not punish Su Chen'an heavily.

"Today's matter is over, and it is not useless to be able to bring down Jiang Kuo."

Su Lixiao looked at Jiang Kuo, who was dragged down by the palace guards, and said in a deep voice.

Lin Xiang also knew that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's practice of accepting it when he saw it was good was not wrong.

"Lin Xiang, I wish that your Lin family will be full from today, and from today onwards, Lin Aiqing will be reinstated, and all the exiled people of the Lin family will be recalled."

His Majesty disposed of Jiang Kuo, and naturally appeased Lin Xiang, who was wronged.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for clearing up the grievances of the Lin family, and the minister can look forward to today's truth, and there will be no regrets for the rest of his life!"

Lin bowed to the monarch of the palace and thanked him.

"The siblings of Shen Mengjiao, the remnants of the Western Frontier, I think you have not done evil, and today you reported Jiang Kuo's evil deeds in this court, and you will be a citizen of my dynasty in the future, and you will no longer have to bear the sins of Western Xinjiang."
