Started as a thatched house and ended up as a female figure
Chapter 395 Grievance
The emperor frowned slightly and said, "If you have anything to say, just say it."
"Your Majesty, when the late emperor was alive, Lord Hao obeyed his orders, and the late emperor was also very good to Lord Hao. At the beginning, the late emperor ordered the ministers and people in the capital to defend the capital, but he was reluctant to let Lord Hao go up to the city wall."
Facing the emperor's increasingly cold gaze, Cheng Wan pursed his lips and continued:
"I stole the imperial seal and the late emperor's son, ruining his plan. I think it's because Lord Hao holds a grudge against me and wants to kill me!"
The officials lowered their heads, rolled their eyes, and dared not speak.
It's too cruel.
The emperor's aura sank, his eyes fixed on the trembling Hao Chi, his voice as cold as ice: "Hao Qing really misses the late emperor so much?"
"Your Majesty!" Hao Chi fell to his knees and shouted at the top of his voice:
"I am innocent! I am innocent! Marquis Zhaoping is talking nonsense! I am only loyal to His Majesty!
I think that when Censor Peng reported Marquis Zhaoping for dereliction of duty, I was deceived for a moment and said a few more words in line with Censor Peng's words.
That’s why I offended Marquis Zhaoping, which is why he hates me so much! Please Your Majesty, please look into this! Please Your Majesty, please look into this!”
After saying this, Hao Chi seemed to suddenly think of something, his eyes lit up, and he said excitedly:
"Your Majesty, Censor Peng was murdered by thieves for no apparent reason. How do we know that it wasn't Marquis Zhaoping who was behind all this?!
Marquis Zhaoping must have been resentful of Censor Peng for reporting her for dereliction of duty, so she killed Censor Peng!
And... there is also the Minister of the Chancellery, the Secretary General, the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, and the second legitimate son of the You family, Lord You!
The murder of these four people might be closely related to Marquis Zhaoping!"
"Hao Chi! Are you crazy?!"
Ying Changlin looked at Hao Chi incomprehensibly, his voice filled with anger:
"Marquis Zhaoping just returned to the capital today, and the Minister of Chancellery and the other five died two days ago!
Open your eyes and look at the injuries on Marquis Zhaoping’s body!
Could it be that she had some magical power that allowed her to teleport to the capital city and then use half of her life to bypass heavy guards and kill five officials in a row, one of whom was the Shangshu Ling, the head of all officials!
Even if Zhao Ping Hou told the truth, you are panicking, but you can't put the blame on Zhao Ping Hou without thinking!"
Ying Changlin's words were actually recognized by many officials.
The deaths of Shangshu Ling and others were related to Marquis Zhaoping.
Isn't this too much respect for Marquis Zhaoping?
Does Marquis Zhaoping have such courage and ability?
Hao Chi glanced at Ying Changlin angrily, then looked at the emperor cautiously. Just as he was about to say something, he heard Cheng Wan's questioning voice.
"Is Censor Peng, Minister of the Chancellery, Secretary General, Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, and the legitimate second son of Lord You really... dead?"
The emperor looked at the genuine shock and confusion on Cheng Wan's face and narrowed his eyes.
To this day, he couldn't tell whether the expression on Cheng Wan's face was real or fake...
Cheng Wan: For this moment, she practiced more than 180 times. In terms of acting out shock and confusion, she can compete for Best Actress.
"The Minister of the Chancellery and others were murdered by thieves. Marquis Zhaoping, this matter has nothing to do with you, right?"
Cheng Wan looked at the emperor in disbelief, with grievance in his eyes: "I have survived many deaths and returned to the capital. I really have no reason and no ability to kill Shang Shu Ling and others."
Cheng Wan's eyes were watery. She bit her lip and blood beads appeared on her lips again:
"Your Excellency Shangshu Ling is the head of all officials. Not to mention that I have no hatred against Your Excellency Shangshu Ling, even if there are some misunderstandings and unhappiness, how dare I kill you?"
The last note incident was instigated by Shang Shu Ling. Considering that Shang Shu Ling was quite diligent in his duties to the people and had said a few words for the Gu family before, she has let it go for once.
As a result, Shang Shu Ling again took charge of the robbery incident and insisted on killing her.
In this case, who lives and who dies will depend on their own abilities.
"There are some misunderstandings and unhappiness between Censor Peng and me, but when the Emperor wanted to punish Censor Peng, I asked for mercy on his behalf, and he was spared from punishment. If I hold a grudge against him for reporting me, why would I ask for mercy on his behalf?"
She really didn't intend to bother with Censor Peng, but who knew that Censor Peng got involved with the Minister of the Chancellery again, and Censor Peng was involved in this robbery incident.
Censor Peng’s death was well deserved.
"I have an old acquaintance with the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, Tan Jianshan. He has eaten at my home with Lord Yan, Lord Ying and others. I even invited him to dinner before I left the capital. How could I harm him?"
Not only did he eat her food, he also colluded with Shang Shu Ling and others to kill her. She would be doing herself a disservice if she didn't kill him.
"My family was entrusted by Lord Gu to look after Lord Gu's nephew, but Lord You wanted to take the child to his own house to look after him. There was indeed some unpleasantness between me and Lord You's family.
But later, Lord Gu came back and personally emphasized that his nephew was still being taken care of by my family. Since then, the relationship between me and Lord You's family has tended to ease.
Before leaving the capital, I took the child to the You Mansion to let the child say goodbye to Lord You and his family.
On that day, I had a very pleasant conversation with Lord You and his family, and Lord You even personally escorted me to the gate of the mansion.
As for me and Lord You's family, it is possible that Lord You's family hates me, but I really don't have any reason to hate the You family. I can't think of any reason to harm the child's uncle. "
You Shichang was instigated to get involved in the robbery. She couldn't bear to let Xiaowa lose his grandfather and uncle, so she could only kill Xiaowa's uncle born to his step-grandmother to vent her anger.
"As for the Secretary General, I did have some unpleasantness with him before, but he came to apologize to me personally, and I had reconciled with him before leaving the capital."
An apology is an apology, but it will not affect the secretary's decision to kill her.
It was not a loss for the Secretary General to die at her hands.
"Your Majesty, it was the Minister of Revenue, Lord Hao, who wanted my life. Even if I wanted revenge, it would be against Lord Hao. How could I kill the Minister of the Chancellery and others?"
Cheng Wan bowed deeply, his voice choking:
“After I knew that it was Lord Hao who wanted my life, I just wanted to go back to the capital to find the emperor and ask him to make the decision for me.
I have never thought of seeking revenge on Lord Hao in private, otherwise wouldn't I be alerting the enemy today?
"Every word I said above comes from my sincere heart. I hope Your Majesty will understand."
Cheng Wan knelt on the ground, his thin body trembling slightly, and people who were close could hear his suppressed sobs.
Some people think that Cheng Wan looks pitiful, but some people hate Cheng Wan's pitiful appearance.
"Marquis Zhaoping was wronged to this extent just because the emperor asked him a question casually!
Marquis Zhaoping insisted on pouring a basin of dirty water on my head!
It is true that you don’t feel the pain unless you are hit by a stick!”
