Dayan Palace.

Chu Xiu went and returned, and followed Gonggong Wei to the imperial study.

Emperor Dayan walked in front of the desk in the imperial study, correcting the recitals with a heroic face.

After seeing Gonggong Wei bring Chu Xiu in, Emperor Dayan put down the wolf pen and the chapter in his hand, and asked straight to the point: "Chu Xiu, do you have anything to do with me?" ”

"Chu Xiu has seen Your Majesty." Chu Xiu did not speak immediately, but first gave Emperor Dayan a courtesy.

Seeing this, Emperor Dayan waved his hand and continued: "If you have anything, just say it, you don't have to be polite. ”

With the approval of Emperor Dayan, Chu Xiu stood up straight, and then got down to business.

"Your Majesty, I'm here to intercede for Wan Jia."

"Wan Jia has paid a lot for Dayan, and the juniors of the family have died at the border, and I ask Your Majesty to forgive Wan Jia."

Hearing Chu Xiu's words, Emperor Dayan's face suddenly showed displeasure.

The silver taels smuggled by Wanjia are as high as 10 million taels, if Wanjia is let go like this, how will the imperial court convince the people in the future?

What's more, this matter is related to Dayan's national politics, if he relaxes, who else will take the new policy in the future?

Emperor Dayan looked at Chu Xiu with a serious gaze, and said in a deep voice: "Merit is merit, transgression is transgression, merit cannot be offset, and ten thousand families cannot forgive." Let's go! ”

As Wan Minmin said, His Majesty's attitude towards Wan Jia is very resolute, and His Majesty will never let Wan Jia go unless he says the real messenger behind the scenes.

The crown prince is high and powerful, he is the prince of a country, even if he confesses, His Majesty may not believe it, and even if he believes, he will not punish the prince too severely for the sake of the royal family's face, and even make a mistake and forcibly let the Wan family carry this matter down.

After all, the face of the royal family must not be lost, as for the smuggling case, as long as someone comes out to take the blame......

Chu Xiu also only figured out these things now, he thought that he would no longer have to have scruples if he was named a general, but now it seems that being an official is not an easy thing......

"Your Majesty, please see that the Wan family has merit to Dayan, you can spare the lives of the Wan family." Chu Xiu did not leave, and directly gave Emperor Dayan a big gift, hoping that Emperor Dayan would spare Wanjia.

Emperor Dayan saw Chu Xiu pleading with Wan Jia so desperately, he took a deep look at Chu Xiu and asked, "What is your relationship with Wan Jia?" Why do you want to help Wanjia so much? ”

The matter between Chu Xiu and the Wanjia is not a secret, and the royal family can know it by checking it casually, so Chu Xiu did not hide it, and directly told the matter of joining the Wanjia family before.

Hearing that Chu Xiu had joined the Wan family, Emperor Dayan's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise, obviously he had just learned the news.

However, he still didn't intend to let Wan Jia go, and said softly: "You have joined Wan Jia for a very short time, even if Wan Jia is in trouble, the Criminal Department will not trouble you, so why should you worry?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, the Wanjia family has the grace of knowing me, and now that the Wanjia family is in trouble, even if I didn't join the Wanjia family, I will never sit idly by." Chu Xiu responded resolutely.

Looking at Chu Xiu's appearance of knowing his kindness, a trace of relief flashed on Emperor Dayan's face.

Although he was a little dissatisfied with Chu Xiu and Wan Jia getting too close, if Chu Xiu was really a person who knew how to repay his kindness, he would definitely be loyal to the court in the future, which was a good thing!

After some hesitation, Emperor Dayan finally relented and said to Chu Xiu: "Seeing that you are a genius to win glory for Dayan, I can spare the lives of Wan's family, but Wan's family property must be confiscated, and I must give an explanation to the people of Dayan!" ”

Things are developing in the direction expected by Chu Xiu and Wan Minmin, although they still haven't kept Wanjia's property, but as long as people are still there, these things outside the body can still be earned back after all.

"Chen Chuxiu, thank you for your great kindness for the Wan family!"

Chu Xiu respectfully gave Emperor Dayan a courtesy.

But just as Chu Xiu got up and was about to leave, Emperor Dayan suddenly stopped him.

Emperor Dayan said earnestly: "Chu Xiu, Wanjia only gave you resources for less than a month, but the imperial court has been cultivating you for more than ten years, which is more important, do you know?" ”

These words were obviously reminding himself that Chu Xiu did not hesitate, and directly gave Emperor Dayan a great gift.

"Please rest assured, Chu Xiusheng is His Majesty's person, and death is His Majesty's soul."

"Swear allegiance to Your Majesty and the Imperial Court!"

Looking at Chu Xiu's serious face, Emperor Dayan was relieved, and a faint smile appeared on his face.

He believed that Chu Xiu's words were true, after all, Chu Xiu even dared to jump into the fire pit of Wanjia in order to repay his kindness, the court was so good to him, what reason did he have to be disloyal to the court?

After knowing Chu Xiu's loyalty to the imperial family and the imperial court, Emperor Dayan did not embarrass Chu Xiu anymore, and directly asked Gonggong Wei to take Chu Xiu out.

Chu Xiu came out of the palace, and Wan Minmin, who had been waiting here for a long time, came over.

Wan Minmin looked at Chu Xiu with a nervous expression, and couldn't wait to ask, "Has Your Majesty spared Wan Wan?" ”

Seeing that Wan Minmin was so anxious, Chu Xiu didn't sell Guan Zi anymore and told Wan Minmin of His Majesty's decision.

After knowing that His Majesty had spared the lives of thousands of families, Wan Minmin's hanging heart finally relaxed.

Although the family property had to be dispersed in the end, this catastrophe was finally over!

……

Kyoto Penal Department Office.

Chu Xiu and Wan Minmin came here and told His Majesty's will to the Shangshu of the Criminal Department.

Hearing this, Shangshu of the Criminal Department handed a confession to Chu Xiu and Wan Minmin, and said: "Wan Jiahe has already pleaded guilty and committed suicide in prison, this is his confession. ”

Suicide in fear of sin?

Wan Minmin's eyes widened, and her body fell backwards weakly, if it weren't for Chu Xiu's quick hugging of her, she would probably have been injured.

After holding his body with the help of Chu Xiu, Wan Minmin said with red eyes: "My father will never commit suicide, he has already confessed his guilt, why don't you let him go?" Why? ”

"Miss Wan, if you have any doubts about Ling Zun's death, you can go to Dali Temple to sue me, and I will have someone send you your father's body, if there is nothing else, you can go back." The criminal department snorted coldly.

Although there are many doubts about the death of the head of the Wan family, the Wan family has lost power, and who will stand out for the Wan family?

So he wasn't afraid of Wan Minmin denouncing himself at all!

Chu Xiu on the side saw that the Shangshu of the Criminal Department was so arrogant, and he also felt very angry.

shouted at the Shangshu of the Criminal Department: "Your Majesty has pardoned the head of the Wan family, but you killed him, do you still have the royal law in your eyes?" I will definitely report this matter to Your Majesty, and I want to see if Your Majesty will believe you!" ”

Hearing that Chu Xiu was going to report the matter to His Majesty, Shangshu of the Criminal Department, who originally wanted to leave, suddenly stopped, and looked at Chu Xiu coldly with a pair of eyes.

"General Chu, I know that you are a popular person in front of Your Majesty, but this does not mean that you can talk nonsense."

"Wan Jiahe has been dead for several hours, and His Majesty hasn't pardoned him at that time, right? And Wan Jiahe committed suicide, what does it have to do with my criminal department? ”

"If you want to sue me, you can go now, but I need to remind you, I'm a notoriously cautious person, is it really worth it for you to offend me for the sake of a down-and-out family?"

After Shangshu of the Criminal Department finished speaking, he didn't talk nonsense with Chu Xiu anymore, and turned around and went back to the mansion directly.

Looking at the back of Shangshu of the Criminal Department, Chu Xiu squeezed his fists fiercely, and the expression on his face was very angry.

He never imagined that Dayan's officials would dare to be so bold!
