Chapter 1022 The Price of Crime

Gu Yun took a shower, cleaned himself up, ran to the palace to chat with Gong Zhangji, and told him the latest news from the yamen.

Yang Mi really dragged his mother-in-law and Gu Chan into the water, and Gong Changji was also silent for a while. This was a heavy blow to the Duke Ye's mansion, which is currently in full swing.

After a while, Gong Zhangji sighed and patted Gu Yun's shoulder vigorously.

"Our good brother, if you want help, just say it."

In the evening, Mr. Gu came home from the Yamen, and when he saw the letter from the government, his expression was terribly gloomy.

Gu Chen's first reaction was that Yang Mi was framed, but thinking about what his second aunt had done these years, he soon stopped talking.

The family of four discussed for a while, and they all thought that this scandal could not be kept secret. Instead of waiting for the old lady to learn the news from the street, it is better to take the initiative to tell her first.

After the agreement was made, after dinner, Gu Yun went out to borrow his doctor from the palace chief Ji just in case, and then the whole family took the doctor to Rong En Hall.

The servants were all standing in the yard, and the government doctor was waiting in the tea room while drinking tea. He thought it was because of Yang Mi's killing in the street and Gu Chan's miscarriage. He was invited to sit here without such a big stimulus, and the government doctor sighed in his heart.

The upper room was very quiet at first, but after a while, the servants in the courtyard heard a crisp sound of breaking a teacup from inside the room. Eyes wide open, waiting anxiously.

In the room, the old matriarch was so angry that she was about to fall ill. The eldest lady sat beside her and helped her mother-in-law rub her back and rub her chest to help her recover. As evidenced by the letter from the government, this really made the old man very angry. That teacup was also smashed by her just now, and it was made of thin porcelain, so it was completely broken.

"Marrying a wife and a virtuous man, I think she belongs to the Tong family, which is also a scholarly family that has been passed down for a long time. How could she do such stupid things at such an age!" The old lady was so angry that she beat her chest desperately, "You three brothers I gave birth on October [-]st of my pregnancy, and this incident happened at home, the future of the second child and brother Xu is all over! It’s all over! The second room is ruined by this idiot!"

"Mother, calm down, don't be in a hurry!" Elder Gu persuaded, sweating profusely.

"How can you stay calm? Tell me how to stay calm?!" The old lady's eyes lit up, "Immediately write to your brother and ask him to divorce his wife!"

"Yes! I wrote it all night, and I will send it to my family tomorrow!" Elder Gu agreed without hesitation, and immediately showed a worried look on his face, "But..."

"I know that when such a big incident happens, the people of the tribe will not let it go, especially the people on the side of the second room. Although the two sides have developed independently over the years, they are brothers in the same line. They are all surnamed Gu. No one will tolerate Ye The title of Duke is tarnished by villains, even if your second brother is my own son! This family can't tolerate him anymore!" The old matriarch was crying, and his heart throbbed sharply.

The family panicked immediately. The government doctor outside the house heard the movement inside and rushed in to rescue him. A few silver needles pierced through the clothes accurately and neatly, and the old lady's breathing quickly stabilized.

After some treatment, the condition of the old matriarch became more and more stable. The doctor diagnosed her as being in a hurry. This is also due to her strong body and her daily diet. The principle is to eat greasy food, otherwise this excitement may cause a stroke, after all, the old lady is also an old man who is about to live seventy years.

The old matriarch was fine, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, the government doctor left some pills and a doctor's order, Gu Yun stuffed a purse into his hand, and politely sent him out of the gate personally, wishing each other good night.

Mrs. Gu stayed in Rong En Hall and waited until her mother-in-law took the medicine and went to bed. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law whispered a lot until the old matriarch fell asleep. People are good at serving.

Mr. Gu is in his study, not only writing a letter to his second brother asking him to divorce his wife, but also writing an apology. This kind of scandal will cause an uproar in the court and the public. He wants to express his position to the court before the news spreads.

But in fact, the sage already knew about this, and the governor got Yang Mi's confession, not only informed the Lord Ye's government, but also sent a copy of the confession to the palace.

Not only did Yang Mi kill people in the street, it turned out that he was the mastermind behind the assassination of Gu Yun brothers, and he actually agreed to the extremely bold request of his mother-in-law and wife. The money for the murder was not something Yang Mi could afford. It can be concluded that in this case, the three are the principal criminals, but the division of labor is different, one makes demands, one pays money, and one deploys plans.

When Fu Yin was arraigned again that day, Yang Mi also admitted that the motive for killing people in the street was because he saw that Gu Yun brothers were safe and sound in Yuanhe Palace and captured the killer alive. There was a conflict, and he admitted that the dagger was his own, and he bought it at a street stall.

Yang Mi has committed two crimes alone, and the death penalty is undoubtedly. Gu Tongshi and Gu Chan will also be imprisoned.

The next morning, after the morning ceremony, the saint returned to the royal study, and saw Gu Yun'an standing at the door with an expression of pleading guilty, holding a booklet in his hand.

The saint snorted coldly and called him in.

The monarch and his ministers talked for a few words, and then the sage read the booklet, and Mr. Gu read the complete copy of the confession. The more he read it, the more angry he became. At the same time, he felt extremely sad for his second brother. The stupid and greedy sister-in-law ruined this family with her own hands.

Not long after Mr. Gu left the imperial study, the Yingtian government office took action. A team of government servants rushed to the Gan family's house, and locked away Mrs. Gu and Gu Chan on charges of buying murder.

Naturally, Gan's side was in a state of confusion for a while, and only then did she know that the assassination of Gu Yun's brothers, which she had heard from her brother, was actually conspired by her mother-in-law and sister-in-law!And the purpose of all this is to allow Gu Xu to inherit the status of the eldest son!At the same time, he obtained the coveted huge amount of property in Gu Yun's hands!
People of the Gan clan in Pingzhou in the capital trembled with anger when they heard the news. Many aunts in the clan went to see Gan Yuwen and strongly urged him to come forward to make peace for his younger sister and break up with Gu Xuen. Such a greedy and cruel man Uncle, they are not worthy of the Gan family!
The clansmen of the Gu clan in Ye State Duke’s Mansion also raised their voices. The scandal at the eldest son’s house was really the first in a century. A group of clan elders who had long been ignorant of ordinary affairs came forward and demanded that Gu Yunkuan’s family should be expelled from the clan. , as the head of the family, he is like a dead man. He has not fulfilled the responsibility and obligation of managing the family at all, and he is not worthy to be the descendant of Duke Ye.
