Chapter 118: Punishment
"I don't know, Lord Zhang, please tell me something." Liu Zhandong wanted to see whether the prince wanted to investigate the incident of Aunt Zhao.

Zhang Qin looked at Liu Zhandong without saying anything. He followed the officers and soldiers to the study, waiting for the results of their search.

The prince wanted to investigate what happened back then, so the emperor actually sent Lord Zhang here directly and also wanted to search for things.

Looking at Zhang Qin's serious expression, Liu Zhandong was suddenly shocked.

Study, they are searching the study!
What if that... is found out?
Thinking of this, Liu Zhandong couldn't help but sweat beads on his forehead.

"Sir Zhang, this doesn't require a search of the mansion," Liu Zhandong asked tentatively.

"Oh? You are doubting His Majesty..." Zhang Qin listened to Liu Zhandong's words and felt that there was something wrong with Liu Zhandong. He actually dared to question the emperor's decision. He was really bold!

"I dare not!" Liu Zhandong was so scared that he knelt down immediately.

The officers and soldiers nearby did find something.

"Sir, please look." The officer presented the bill.

Looking at this familiar account book, Liu Zhandong wanted to say something, but found that he couldn't utter a word.

Zhang Qin looked at the first half of the account book and saw that it was consistent with the content on the paper given to him by the emperor, so he knew that this was the account book he was looking for.

"Now that we have found the physical evidence, follow my orders and search the Liu residence!"

At the command, the officers and soldiers began to disperse and take action.

Liu Zhandong's kneeling body softened and he collapsed.

At this time, Mrs. Liu and Liu Lianxing came over to inquire about the situation and were dumbfounded by the scene.

"Why are you taking things without permission!" Mrs. Liu had sharp eyes and saw these soldiers taking things away at will.

Madam Liu stepped forward and wanted to take it back, but was pushed away by the soldiers.

"Master, what's going on?"

Liu Zhandong did not answer Mrs. Liu's words, but kept repeating them.

"It's over, the house has been confiscated, everything is gone, it's over, the house has been confiscated, everything is gone..." "What, confiscated!" Although Madam Liu lived deep in the house, she could understand the meaning of the words "confiscated the house".

Several people could only watch helplessly as their things were taken away, and they thought the worst case scenario was that all their things were taken away.

Unexpectedly, several officers and soldiers walked up to them and escorted them out.

"What are you doing? Just take the things. Why are you letting us go?"

Liu Zhandong did not make any resistance, he knew that everything was meaningless.

Now that the bills have been found, I’m really finished.

Zhang Qin thought Liu Zhandong would make some excuses, but he didn't.

Liu Zhandong took the initiative to take the blame because he hoped that by doing so he could protect his family.

Otherwise, even if you don't admit it, it will be useless and you won't be able to protect your family.

After reading Liu Zhandong's confession, the emperor was furious and ordered his execution.

It can be said that the emperor has no tolerance for the buying and selling of official positions.

Of course, in addition to this, there is also the matter of Xiao Huai going missing. It is even more impossible for the emperor to let them go.

General's Mansion.

"Today, the emperor issued an order that in three days, Lord Liu will be beheaded and his family will be exiled to an extremely cold place."

After Gu Xun returned home, he told his family about it.

[It was so quick. Fortunately, Liu Liantang recognized his relatives quickly, otherwise this bad guy would have to live for several more months.]

[And exile, it seems the punishment is quite strict. After all, for the ancients, exile was a serious punishment. ]

[By the way, I think Liu Zhandong’s bill has been received, so what about the assassination…]
