Chapter Fifty-Six: This Vow Breaks Through the Night

Kyoto is full of people.

Because today is the day of the judgment of the hereditary lord Qi Guogong and the great general.

Since a few days ago, there was a scene of dozens of officials attending the court meeting, but in recent days, Kyoto has not stopped at all.

After the founding feats of the country, it was revealed that he collaborated with the enemy and committed treason, and anyone would find it incredible.

However, before the ironclad evidence, even the biggest officials had to admit their guilt and be punished.

It has only been three years since the death of the old marquis, and the scene of wearing white in half of Kyoto seems to be still in front of him, and today the foundation laid by the old marquis is about to be raided.

That's right, after the verdict of the three divisions of Dali Temple, the Criminal Department, and the Yushitai, Chen Bai, the Duke of Qiguo, was beheaded for treason by the enemy, and the whole family was confiscated, and the only sister-in-law was exiled to Jiaozhou thousands of miles away for ten years, which can be regarded as a complete abolition of the future.

The family clans who were originally a little hesitant in the capital nodded in person today, and they all went down one after another, exposing the domineering behavior and deviant behavior of the Duke of Qi Guo in the past one by one, and for a while, the lord who was originally called the pillar of the country above the court became a thief that everyone shouted and beaten.

The people originally remembered that they had some pity for the old man's achievements for the country, but under the ironclad evidence, in the face of the despicable behavior of the Duke of Qi Guogong who betrayed the country and sought glory, they did not hesitate at all, and swarmed him, and smashed the eggs and cabbage of the Duke of Qiguo, who was wearing prison clothes and marching across the street, and scolded him thoroughly.

Chen's proud "loyalty" has also become a great irony, for a time, many courtiers, officials into the palace like snowflakes, different words, but the central idea is not surprising only one, abolish the Qi Guogong lineage of the word loyalty.

When the emperor refuted them one by one, and issued an edict saying that Zhongwu was the name of the first emperor to praise the great general Chen of Zhenyuan, and the posthumous affairs should not be affected by the predecessors, and Chen said that the merits of one person should be remembered forever.

As a result, everyone in Moda Kyoto called the Son of Heaven merciful and remembered the old man's achievements for the country, but no one seemed to remember the miserable situation of the Great Duke's Mansion.

The deepest part of the prison of the Criminal Department.

A man in prison clothes and hair sat peacefully on the ground, his eyes closed, not paying any attention to the mocking gazes of the people outside the prison.

"The time has come, Grandpa Chen, please. The warden had been sitting at a table and watching him silently, but at last he slowly stood up, opened the tightly packed door, and chuckled at him, as if to see a look of fear on his face.

Unfortunately, the warden was doomed to disappointment, and the man stood up, his face as indifferent as ever, without the determination to die, and without the cowardice of fear and fear.

"Lead the way. The man spoke, still in a powerful voice.

The warden's body trembled slightly, and then he remembered that even if he was reduced to a prisoner, this man was still the top master of the Nine Grades of Martial Arts, and there was no problem in killing him within a few steps.

Thinking of this, the warden couldn't help but take a few steps back, and at the same time motioned to his subordinates around him to go up and detain the man, God knows if these torture tools are of any use to the masters of the Nine Grades of Martial Arts.

The man let them do what they did, and did not do anything.

The warden carefully checked it a few times to confirm that there was no problem, and then looked at the man opposite with a smile: "Grandpa Chen, do you have anything else to instruct?"

"Don't touch my son, or no one will be able to protect you. The man who had been looking indifferent slowly raised his eyes and stared at the warden.

The warden's slightly obese body shook fiercely, and his face was a little ugly and he smiled dryly: "Grandpa Chen, I am also obedient to orders, so don't embarrass a little person like me." ”

"Just let your people stay out of the way. The man said lightly.

"Our criminal department acts impartially, and Grandpa Chen can definitely rest assured of this. The warden continued with a dry laugh.

"Let's go, take me out of front of his prison, and I'll see him again. ”

"This ......," the warden grimaced.

"Yongxing pawnshop, go to the shopkeeper, report my name, and give a hundred taels of gold. The man glanced at him.

"This ...... In this way, the little one tried his best to help his grandfather. The warden suddenly showed a little joy again.

"Lead the way. The man glanced at him.

The group walked silently, and the man walked widely, walking very calmly.

From the depths of the ladder, the road was heavily guarded, and the warden led the way in front of him, leading the man to a cell.

Inside the cell was a teenager.

"Tomorrow night. The man spoke, his voice steady, but there was a faint hint of unconcealed trembling.

The young man who had kept his head down suddenly raised his head when he heard the voice, and his eyes were firmly locked on the man's body.

"Daddy!" said the young man in surprise, "are they going to release us, Your Majesty knows that we have been wronged, right?"

"Tomorrow night, listen to what Daddy said," the man looked at the boy, his face was as calm as ever, "Do you remember the letter Daddy gave you before?"

"Remember!" the boy nodded hurriedly.

"You must do what Daddy says, remember?" the man instructed.

The young man was stunned for a moment, as if he vaguely felt that something was wrong, and his eyes suddenly became a little flustered: "Dad, what are you talking about?"

"Tomorrow night, I've been harsh on you for not working hard enough, I've never praised you, that time you went out with me in Beizhou, and I was hit in the shoulder, I didn't even go to see you, don't you blame me?" The man looked at the young man who was a little flustered in front of him, and his voice suddenly became a little hoarse.

The young man shook his head desperately: "I don't blame you, Dad, I don't blame you at all, I am still going to teach you a lesson to the Northern Desert barbarians in the future, and go to recover the Thirteen Cities of Yanyun together!"

"Tomorrow night, you've done a great job over the years!" the man said softly, in a gentle tone that he had never said to his son, "Daddy is very proud to have a son like you!"

The boy stood dumbfounded, looking at the tall figure in his mind, and tears flowed from his eyes.

"Son, I'm Chen Bai, the proudest thing in this life is not how much I won a battle, not how much reward I received," the man's always steady voice trembled faintly, "The proudest thing for me is to be able to marry your mother and have a son like you!

The young man cried hoarsely, but when he opened his mouth, it was so bitter, and there was only a trace of weakness and dryness: "Dad!"

"Okay, alive!" the man looked at the boy deeply, closed his eyes, and turned around fiercely, "Go." ”

The warden watched this scene and did not speak, but continued to walk forward with the man.

The whole cell was eerily quiet.

The boy looked at the back and let out a hoarse cry.

"Daddy!"

The man's footsteps paused slightly, but he didn't look back and walked away.

The figure disappeared into the depths of the aisle, and even a ray of sunlight with the iron window was obscured.

The young man clenched his lips and teeth, refusing to leave a single tear.

Just staring at the ground, his eyes bloodshot.

Tomorrow night, the Chen family swears here, born in the world, will break the Zhao family!

As pointed by the sword, the mountains block and split the mountains, and the sea is wide and reclaimed, and it is not broken!
