In the next few days, the Chang brothers and Xue Qingsong became busy because of this incident.
Until yesterday, all the evidence was placed in front of the Holy One, and the net was ready, waiting for the Holy One's decree.
When the Chang family held a grand banquet, it was also the time when the emperor issued an edict.
The Chang family will take advantage of the situation.
If you want to make people crazy, let them expand first.
The Song family and its members are inflated.
So far, they have all been caught in one fell swoop.
Following this man's order, everyone was imprisoned in the sky prison.
The Song family, its members, and even some of them are hostile to the Song family on the surface, but in fact they are on the same page privately.
The Holy One was furious.
The emperor was angry and laid down millions of corpses.
The Song family and its members were quickly investigated. Suddenly, a century-old family was uprooted, and countless cases were implicated.
Knowing that the Song family had entered, many people went to the county government office to beat drums and complain.
In the end, all the adult men of the Song family were sentenced to death, and the other female relatives and children in the inner house were either exiled or sent to the monastery.
The members of the Song family killed and let go.
The case of the Song family forming a party for personal gain was a matter of great turmoil, and it was not settled until half a month later.
For a time, many official positions were vacant in the court and local governments, and Chang Maozhi took the opportunity to recommend many honest and capable officials. Most of these officials came from poor families and had no aristocratic family connections behind them. They relied on their background in the imperial examinations and worked their way up step by step.
After seeing everyone's resumes, the Holy Spirit approved them all with a stroke of his pen.
At this time, Cao Wei had been hiding at home for several days.
He was also going to the Song family that day.
As soon as the three hundred taels of silver notes obtained from Cao were received, the couple thought of exchanging them as gifts and sending them to the Song Mansion to apologize. Unexpectedly, he couldn't even enter the Song family's door.
Later, I heard that the Chang family held a banquet and said that they recognized a son and a daughter.
Cao Wei and Xiao Zhang secretly grinded their teeth.
Yingying, a dead girl, was blamed for causing trouble, but now she is happy and has entered the Chang family's family tree!
Cao Wei and Xiao Zhang were sulky at home for a long time, full of resentment directed at their sister Cao and their daughter Yingying. As for the Song family, who looked down upon the couple and refused to let them in, they were not angry at all, and they went to greet them with a smile on their faces.
After hearing the edict issued by the Holy One, the Chang family banquet broke up in a hurry. The couple felt happy and even asked the old lady to prepare two more side dishes.
The next day, the Song family held a banquet. Cao Wei and Xiao Zhang used the three hundred taels of silver to buy an old wild ginseng and sent it to the Song family.
For the sake of Lao Shan Ginseng, Cao Wei just entered the door, waiting to see his sister and brother-in-law to beg him and support him in the future.
As a result, before I had even eaten a few bites of the meal, the imperial edict came down.
Cao Wei's heart skipped a beat as he remembered the Chang family's imperial edict yesterday. Fortunately, the people at the same table started chatting and said that it might be the imperial edict of Mr. Song being promoted to Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, so he relaxed again.
As a result, officers and soldiers rushed in at the front door, and all the guests were dumbfounded.
Then things took a turn for the worse, leaving them unable to react.
It was only at this time that they finally realized that there seemed to be a lot fewer guests visiting the Song family today.
None of the people with hands and eyes who could reach the sky came, and none of the emperor's ministers came either.
Those who don’t fight those who work hard and those who don’t fight those who are lazy are those who are short-sighted like them!
Even if Cao Wei realized it now, it was too late. He knelt in the corner with his head lowered, listening to the fact that the Song family had been arrested. Including his aunt, brother-in-law, and the charming lady-like Song Qian'er, they were all thrown to the ground, crying or scolding.
Cao Wei was buzzing with commotion, but he was sure of one thing. The Song family was finished, completely finished.
A small official from Cao Wei, he was released after his identity was verified. With his kind of official position, he would not be allowed to play even if he formed a party for personal gain.
But the deputy of the leader let out a sneer when he found out that he was Cao Wei, Lord Song's aunt-in-law, or Chang Maoming's brother-in-law.
The sound was very small and short. It was as short as if it had never been uttered before, but it was enough to make Cao Wei feel ashamed.
After returning home, Xiao Zhang noticed that his face was pale and bloodless, and that he was seriously ill, so he directly filed a leave of absence with the Yamen.
Cao Wei was really frightened, even sick from fear.
Xiao Zhang asked him what was going on, but he remained silent. It was not until a few days ago that Xiao Zhang finally heard the clues and ran back in a panic with a pale face to ask Cao Wei if what happened to the Song family was true. Cao Wei nodded.
"Then, if the Song family collapses, where is the old wild ginseng we bought with three hundred taels of silver!" Xiao Zhang shouted.
Cao Wei looked at Xiao Zhang with disbelief, "What did you say?"
"I said that since the road to the Song family is impassable, let's take back the old wild ginseng and send it to the Chang family." Little Zhang said self-righteously.
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Cao Wei's voice trembled.
"Don't be so stubborn. Although my brother-in-law has no future, after all, he is from the Chang family, and that is the uncle's house. There is always no problem in finding an official position for you."
Cao Wei took a long time to speak, his voice was very ethereal, "Do you know who led the team to raid the Song family that day?"
"Who is it? How could a woman like me know such a thing!" Little Zhang said impatiently.
"It's brother-in-law."
"What?"
"It's my brother-in-law, Chang Maoming, who copied the Song family." Cao Wei held his head in pain, "I thought he had nothing to do."
Although Chang Maoming was wearing a black mask and his voice was different from usual, Cao Wei still recognized him.
But he was careful not to call anyone.
This is also the reason why the deputy who released him sneered when he knew that he was Mr. Song's aunt-in-law and Chang Er's brother-in-law.
And Chang Maoming could go up and ransack the homes on behalf of the Holy Spirit as soon as he came back, or the homes of high officials in the court. How could he be someone who had nothing to do!
This must be His Majesty's confidant, perhaps he has been gathering evidence outside for so many years.
He was so blind that he even completely fell out with his sister over the dowry in front of his brother-in-law.
now……
Little Zhang didn't realize that Cao Wei's face was ugly. When he heard that the person who copied the Song family was Chang Maoming, he was stunned for a moment, and then his face showed joy.
"It turns out he is my brother-in-law. This is really a good thing." Little Zhang laughed, "My sister has been arrogant for more than ten years, and now she has received her retribution."
Seeing Cao Wei's puzzled face, Xiao Zhang took the initiative to explain to Cao Wei, "Husband, you don't know that it was my sister who made an engagement with you back then. But later, relying on her parents' love, she forced them to marry us. My engagement was changed. She married into a high-ranking family like the Song family, so I could only..."
After saying this, Mrs. Zhang quickly changed her mind, "I am lucky enough to become the wife of the Cao family!"
