Chapter 28 Lost the wife and lost the army

No matter how much the queen mother tried to persuade her, Xu always acted as if I knew the queen mother would not help me.

Still making her cry, make trouble and hang herself three times, Xu's family background is humble, but she can't stand her having a father who is the richest man.

The queen mother had taken a fancy to the wealth of the Xu family, so she chose the Xu family for Marquis Wu Cheng.

She never calculated that Mrs. Xu would be such a virtuous person. She was fine when she first met, with a good-looking, well-behaved and sensible appearance.

But who knew that it was the old lady Xu who asked Xu to pretend. When Xu gave birth to Chen'er, she completely let go of herself, and all her temper burst out. She regretted it too late, so she could only beat it frequently. Shi is a shameless master.

He promised in every possible way, turned his back and did what he should do.

"Shut up, you go back to Hou Mansion and wait, Ai's family will give Fan'er an explanation."

Mrs. Xu stopped her tears immediately, Xie En said:
"Thank you, aunt, for caring about Fan'er."

He patted his butt and stood up, before leaving, he did not forget to say:

"The case silver from the Xu Mansion was brought into the Marquis of Wucheng's Mansion yesterday and kept in the courtier's wife's courtyard. The minister's wife wanted to send someone to send it to the county king, but now something happened to Fan'er. The minister's wife didn't care about other things. Waiting for when my aunt will make the decision for Fan'er, and when will the minister's wife send someone to send the money to the county king."

The queen mother looked at Xu's leaving back, and the white jade teacup in her hand fell to the ground. The stupid woman learned to threaten her.

"The king of Xuangui County enters the palace."

Mrs. Wu Chenghou's exaggerated and complacent expression changed instantly when she left Xiangning Hall, her eyes were shrewd and her expression was cold.

In the imperial study room, Wu Chenghou looked at the shameless Su Xiang angrily.

What does it mean that he owes a fight, what does it mean that Liang Fan would not end up like this if he was present.

"My lord, you have to be the master for the old minister, the old minister...who...Su Bojun."

Wu Chenghou was chattering endlessly when a thick memorial was thrown at his head, making him dizzy. When he saw Su Bojun's name clearly written on it, his eyes widened with anger .

He really thought that Wuchenghou's mansion was made of mud, the young beat the young, and the old beat the old, whether there is any law of heaven or king's law.

Su Xiang arched his hands and ignored Wu Chenghou who wanted to tear him apart with his eyes.

"I want to impeach Wu Chenghou Zongzi for committing murder, oppressing the people, robbing the people's daughters, taking away the people's fat and anointing, and taking away the people's property."

Wu Chenghou pointed at Su Bojun tremblingly.

"Don't you want to frame my son, it's obviously the young master of your family who beat my son like this."

Su Xiang gave Wu Chenghou a self-seeking look.

The emperor who didn't say a word finally spoke slowly:

"Su Aiqing, do you have evidence?"

Marquis Wu Cheng stared at Su Bojun with his neck straightened, "Do you have evidence for Mr. Su Xiang?"

A creepy smile appeared on Su Bojun's face, this smile made Wu Chenghou's heart shudder.

Su Bojun stared straight at the memorial in Wu Chenghou's hand.

Wu Chenghou, who was holding the memorial, trembled unconsciously. This memorial could not be...

"I have evidence, and the evidence is solid, and I have to trouble Marquis Wu Cheng to submit it."

As soon as Su Bojun finished speaking, Wu Chenghou's body trembled slightly, he was both afraid and angry.

Su Bojun!You are asking the old man to present the evidence of his own child's crime, which is vicious enough.

"How come Lord Hou dare not?"

Su Xiangrao looked at Wu Chenghou with evil taste, "You are still a little tender to fight with me."

These evidences are just a small part of what he has verified and used to overthrow the Queen Mother.

"Bring it up!"

The emperor had spoken, and Marquis Wu Cheng had no choice but to submit the memorial, feeling uneasy, how could his own evil son He Dexing, a father, not know.

When the emperor's face became darker and darker, Marquis Wu Cheng wished he could carry Liang Fan on his back and go back to the mansion.

"bang"

"Um……"

This time it was the memorial that hit the pit of his heart, Wu Chenghou didn't dare to cry out in pain, he could only let out a muffled groan.

"Read it to me."

The cold look in the emperor's eyes made Wu Chenghou shiver, this is Chuqiu.

Wu Chenghou opened the memorial tremblingly. When he saw the evidence on the memorial that clearly recorded the time, place, and year, Wu Chenghou wished to wake up Liang Fan who was in a coma.

Nizi, Nizi, you are cheating!
"Daqi 23, the seventh day of July, the second son of Marquis Wucheng, Liang Fan, forcibly robbed Yuan Xiucai's daughter...Liang Fan occupied Zhu Yuan's outer city and west three into the house... and occupied [-] acres of paddy fields in Taiping Village... Your Majesty, please forgive me, Your Majesty."

The more he read, the darker the emperor's face became, the more comfortable Su Xiang became, the more trembling Wu Chenghou's voice became, and before half of the reading, the whole person shouted for mercy.

Cold sweat wets his back, this rebellious son has done so many stupid things behind his back, he has the guts to do it, how can he not have the ability to wipe his butt clean, and leave a handle for others to handle, idiot, he followed his mother even half of him No brains!
The emperor's angry voice came.

"Forgive me! Who will spare the lives of the people! Pull it down and behead it."

Marquis Wu Cheng slumped on the ground, and Su Xiang stood up in due time.

"The emperor calm down, although the second son of the Marquis of Wucheng deserves to die, but I think that instead of beheading the second son, it is better for the Marquis of Wucheng to make up for the crimes committed by the second son.

The occupied real estate will be returned, the concubine who was forced to marry can be restored, and the occupied land will be returned to the common people. Of course, the Wuchenghou Mansion will be compensated for the losses in the past few years. "

Wu Chenghou glanced at Su Xiang gratefully. Although it is true that he has two sons under his knees, the eldest son was taken away by the queen mother and raised under his knees since he was born. Only the youngest son grew up by his side. It's disappointing, but he can't watch his youngest son be beheaded.

"The minister immediately ordered to go down, according to what the Xiangye said. I also hope that the emperor will spare the life of the son."

Su Xiang continued to say:
"However, if Liang Fan does not handle this matter properly, it may cause public resentment and damage the emperor's reputation."

Marquis Wu Cheng was startled slightly, it was in vain that he just thanked the thief from the bottom of his heart, but he still wanted to kill his son.

Su Bojun changed the subject and continued:
"The emperor takes such a big risk for Wu Chenghou's mansion, shouldn't Wu Chenghou express it?"

Marquis Wu Cheng understood it immediately, and said again and again:
"What Prime Minister Su said is very true. The crime committed by my rebellious son is unforgivable. I am willing to donate 5 taels of silver to the court for civilian use."

When the emperor heard the words, his brows were slightly frowned, and the treasury was empty, he, the emperor, was really poor.

"Then it's better to cut it off. Forgive me for talking too much just now. The emperor's reputation can be made up for by a mere 5 taels."

Marquis Wu Cheng's mood was up and down at the moment, Su thief was looking for him to be happy, he gritted his teeth and said:

"10 taels of silver, no amount of ministers can afford it."

The emperor nodded slightly.

As soon as Su Xiang thought about the emperor's lack of treasury a few days ago, the soldiers at the border had to prepare winter clothes, and many other reasons to beat his daughter Fengyang Lord, he felt that Wu Chenghou's contribution was still a little less.

It's fine for him as an official to be squeezed, and his family must not be implicated.

If Su Rujin knew about it, she would beat her chest and stamp her feet. Daddy, please don't stop me. My daughter has no idea to send money to the emperor. She will be the emperor's solid treasury, so that the emperor can't touch her casually and dare not touch her.

Su Xiang's magic voice rang in Wu Chenghou's ear again.

"The emperor's reputation is not only redeemable by 10 taels of silver."

The emperor raised his eyebrows slightly, Su Aiqing's 10 taels was enough, and she didn't even have a penny if she was scared away.
