witch chaotic country

Chapter 655
After Tan Chengbo's leg was broken, and then his arm was broken again, the matter finally came to the government.

Because Tan Daoji had just repelled the invasion of the Northern Wei Dynasty, many people in Jiankang City speculated that his youngest son was secretly murdered by someone secretly, and it was only for revenge on Tan Daoji.

As soon as these remarks came out, many people complained for Tan Chengbo, asking the government to investigate the case as soon as possible, arrest the criminals, and stand up for the Tan family.

Soon even the emperor, who was still ill, issued a verbal order, asking the court lieutenant to cooperate with the officials to try the case together, so that the loyal ministers must not suffer innocent grievances in the future.

As soon as the emperor opened his mouth, the government's work was naturally quick.The prisoner was caught soon, but the case became more and more complicated as the trial progressed.

The prisoner became the sufferer, crying loudly in front of the adults of each department in the government office.

It was fine for him to cry alone, and soon seven or eight families came up, all suing Tan Chengbo for using power for personal gain and seeking the people's favor.The evidence in the hands of these people is solid, and the Tan family is not given the slightest chance to argue.

Ting Wei had no choice, although the emperor's original intention was to support the Tan family, but the incident was so big that everyone in Jiankang City knew it, and they couldn't cover it up even if they wanted to, so they had to bite the bullet and report the results of the investigation Presented to the emperor.

After Liu Yilong saw the result, he was furious. He not only took away Tan Chengbo's official position, but also decreed that Tan Chengbo would not be an official within ten years. What's more, his servant came to Tan's house to reprimand Tan Daoji for being incompetent in teaching his son and unworthy of matching the eldest princess. give up.

As an important minister in the court, it is such a humiliating thing to be reprimanded by the emperor.If you put it on someone else, you will be too ashamed to go out.However, after Tan Daoji entered the palace to plead guilty, he should still go up to the court and do things without any delay.

When Tan Can saw it, he showed off to Tan Yaoyu every now and then, "Our father is the one who can bend and stretch a man."

Tan invites Yu to bury his head in the towering tome, and replies indifferently: "That's my father too. Second brother came to me to show off, he should go outside and talk to those aristocratic families."

Tan Can touched his nose embarrassingly, "I'm not embarrassed. The hozens mocked me as soon as they saw me for having a younger brother who was so greedy for ink that his hands and feet were broken! But I can't refute it! I'm so angry! "

Seeing that Tan invited Yu to ignore him, Tan Can leaned forward again, "Hey, I said, little girl, did you act a little ruthlessly this time? It's not that I hate to beat Tan Chengbo, but making such a big fuss , Dad really can't live with his face."

Tan Yaoyu raised his head, frowned slightly and looked at Tan Can, "Why are you so stupid in our family?"

Tan Can became angry when he heard it, "What do you mean!?"

"That's what she meant literally." Tan Zhi walked in from the outside at this time, "The emperor raised it first and then suppressed it. He deliberately said that it was to rectify our family's name, so that the suppression of our family later can be more in line with the people's hearts. Let's talk about things. With such a big commotion, how can the gift of marriage be given up so easily?"

Tan Can pursed her lips, apparently her eldest brother and father had already seen through the tricks, so they were able to deal with it calmly after the emperor sent someone to reprimand him.

Tan Can thought of something again, and teased Tan Zhi with a smirk: "Brother, I heard that your former fiancée fell ill after learning that the marriage gift was withdrawn. Brother, don't you plan to visit?"

Tan Yaoyu took another bamboo slip, and said: "Second brother's words are not accurate, the eldest princess is 'temporarily' ill, but it is estimated that she will be relieved within a few days."

Tan Can stared at Yao Yu with wide-eyed eyes, "Liberation? Why do you use this word so horribly, little girl? Don't you mean...to cut grass and roots...?"

Tan Zhi couldn't bear it, "The matter of giving the marriage was the emperor's idea, Princess Kangchang Yuzhang was also innocently involved, there is no need to hurt her life."

Tan Zhaoyu sighed and looked at his elder brother, seeing him really couldn't bear it.Zhao Yu was afraid that his eldest brother would feel guilty in the future, so he said truthfully: "Not to mention how many children this Princess Kangchang of Yuzhang has abducted from Pai Huazi for her pleasure, even the one who wants to kill her right now is not me."

Both Tan Zhi and Tan Can were taken aback. They thought that the incident of child molestation was fabricated by the younger sister, but they didn't expect it to be true!

Tan Zhi frowned and thought for a moment, then said: "If Princess Kangchang of Yuzhang really committed such crimes, she should be handed over to the Ting Wei for trial instead of being executed privately by others."

"Brother, let's talk to Song Huang."

"Your Majesty?!" The two brothers of the Tan family were astonished, obviously not believing it.

Tan Yaoyu snorted coldly, "In the eyes of Emperor Song, it is a blessing for the sons of the common people to be 'favoured' by the eldest princess, but his own son does not allow others to be contaminated in the slightest."

Tan Can's mouth was wide open, while Tan Zhi's brows were so tight that a fly could be pinched to death.The young girl suddenly told them so many truths, it was really hard for the two of them to digest.

Tan Can also half-believingly said: "You mean... Yuzhang Princess Kang and the crown prince..."

"Shameless!" Tan Zhi was about to go out in a sudden rage, he just felt disgusted thinking about being married to such a person.

"Brother." Tan Zhaoyu called Tan Zhi, "Where are you going? Don't tell me that you are going to reprimand Yuzhang Kangchang Princess face to face."

Tan Can also reacted, and grabbed Tan Zhi and dared not let go, "Brother, I know you are angry. But you just heard from my younger sister that Princess Yuzhang Kangchang died soon. The emperor obviously wanted to cover up If you get involved in this scandal again at this time, all our plans will be ruined, and my father will be scolded for nothing!"

Tan Zhi was obviously very angry, he waved his hand and punched the door frame, and his body trembled.

Tan invited Yu to pour a glass of water, got up and walked to Tan Zhi and handed it over, "Brother, drink a glass of water to calm down first. This matter is not over yet."

Tan Can was a little scared and said: "It's not over yet?! Isn't this marriage already cancelled?"

Tan Zhaoyu looked at Tan Zhi with a look of apology, "I'm sorry big brother. Although I wanted to find a perfect solution, I still implicated you. If Princess Kangchang of Yuzhang died because of this, big brother, who was once A courtier who bestows a marriage should mourn for him for one year, and within a year he cannot speak of marriage."

Tan Zhi didn't expect that Yao Yu would apologize to him for this matter, he relaxed his shoulders, took the water glass that Yao Yu handed over, and patted her on the head again: "Brother should thank you."

Tan Can suddenly remembered something, and stomped his feet, "It's broken! Dad went to Wang Shizhong's mansion for a banquet today!"

The three brothers and sisters looked at each other and immediately understood why Tan Daoji, who usually doesn't like to socialize, went to the banquet uncharacteristically today.

Tan Zhi drank all the water in the cup, "I'll pick up my father!"

"Brother, wait for me! I'll be with you!" Tan Can said as she rushed out of the room following Tan Zhi.
