Xue Huaian knelt on the ground.
"Your Majesty, I only know that there was a fire, and nothing else.
I don't care about those rumors. I have a duty to fulfill and dare not leave without permission."
Emperor Dongling seemed convinced: "Commander Xue has fulfilled his duties conscientiously."
Rumors?
Don’t want to care?
hehe……
You have been concentrating on winning over the hearts of the people and attracting generals of all ranks in the Imperial Guards.
After the morning court session ended, Nangong Honglie and his son went to the imperial study to ask to see Emperor Dongling.
Emperor Dongling glanced at the father and son.
"Laifu said that you guys had a good vent yesterday, so why do you still look so worried?"
Nangong Honglie clasped his fists.
"Your Majesty, after the banquet yesterday, an assassin was captured in my residence."
"Assassin? Want to kill you?"
"No, you want to kill my granddaughter Nangong Jiu!"
"Kill a baby?"
Emperor Dongling was shocked for a moment.
"What happened to the child? No wonder the thunder from heaven wanted to strike them. They are unworthy of being human!"
"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. Fortunately, we found him in time and he wasn't hurt!"
Emperor Dong Ling raised his hand: "So what are you doing?"
Nangong Yunsheng also bowed.
"Your Majesty, I think we might as well engage them in a fight to distract their attention..."
The three of them discussed this for a while before the father and son said goodbye and left the palace.
After returning home.
Nangong Yunsheng brought the guards from the palace and escorted Yu Ma, beating drums and gongs and shouting all the way to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
“It’s so unfair!
Fellow villagers, please come and help us to judge the situation. The Prime Minister’s Mansion has gone too far and even sent people to kill a baby!
My sister and her daughter are all listed in the Nangong family tree. I can't stand in their way, but they still refuse to give up and insist on killing a baby.
Poor baby, who was only one month old, was almost killed..."
Nangong Yunsheng was also a wonderful person. He burst into tears while speaking, which attracted many people to watch.
Someone in the crowd shouted, "The people in the Prime Minister's Mansion are such bastards, they are so cruel and ruthless!
Not only do they bully us on a daily basis, they even don't spare a baby. General Nangong and his family guard the border all year round, so we can live in peace.
Their families have been bullied like this, and we won't tolerate it. Let's go and help them seek justice."
One call and a hundred responses.
"No! No..." The people raised their arms and shouted, following Nangong Yunsheng's team all the way to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
People along the way continued to join in, and the team seeking justice grew like a snowball.
Less than half an hour later, the expeditionary force arrived at the Prime Minister's Residence.
The gatekeeper had never seen such a scene before and was so frightened that he crawled off to report the news.
Prime Minister Xue was in so much pain that he was confused. After hearing what the housekeeper said, he couldn't breathe and fainted.
The housekeeper had no choice but to go find Li Yulin.
Li Yulin was in so much pain that his teeth were gnashing. He was about to curse, but then he thought, isn't this an opportunity that has come right to him?
"Get dressed and help me to the door."
At the gate of the mansion.
The people who had been waiting for a long time became impatient and prepared to rush into the palace.
At this time, several servants came out, supporting the tightly covered Li Yulin.
Li Yulin endured the excruciating pain all over his body and knelt in front of Nangong Yunsheng.
"We were wrong, we were blinded by greed and did the wrong thing.
We are willing to compensate, please, Brother Nangong, be merciful and forgive us this time."
"Compensation? How do you want to compensate?"
"I'd like to marry Xue'er as my co-wife. This would also be good for Jiu'er!"
Equal wife?
What a dare you have to think!
"Then, the lives of my sister and her daughter are in your hands, and you can kill or chop them up based on your mood?
Li Yulin, your pig brain hasn't been struck by lightning yet, right?
Who the hell do you think you are? Don't you have any idea?
Are you still the new number one scholar? Have you read all the sage books?
In order to curry favor with the Prime Minister's Mansion, you've thrown away even your sense of propriety, righteousness, and integrity. I'll tear your stinking mouth to pieces and raze this filthy Prime Minister's Mansion to the ground."
For the sake of his sister and Jiuer, the elegant young man Nangong Yunsheng disregarded his image, pretended to be a reckless man who stood up for his sister, and started swearing.
"Yes, destroy the Prime Minister's Mansion!"
The people rushed forward, knocked Li Yulin and his servant to the ground, and beat them up.
Nangong Yunsheng's men mixed in the crowd, grasping the timing. When they saw that the man had been beaten almost enough, they kicked him to the side and rushed into the Prime Minister's Mansion with their men.
The people, who had been oppressed by the Prime Minister's Mansion for a long time, found an outlet to vent their anger at this moment. After smashing and looting things, they dispersed before the soldiers arrived.
Nangong Yunsheng's act had not yet ended, and he took Yu Ma to the Ministry of Justice to file a complaint, and handed over the person and the confession to Minister Chen of the Ministry of Justice.
Minister Chen curled the corners of his mouth and secretly gave Nangong Yunsheng a thumbs up.
But he said in a businesslike manner: "Master Nangong, I have received your complaint and confession, and have detained the suspect. I will handle the case impartially. You can go back and wait for news."
Nangong Yunsheng bowed to Minister Chen and went home in a happy mood.
Ruixueyuan.
The whole family gathered together, chatting and laughing while waiting for news from Nangong Yunsheng.
Seeing the person step into the yard, the children cheered and surrounded him.
Some hugged their legs, hugged their legs; some pulled their hems, pulled their hems.
Nangong Yunsheng was surrounded by children, doting and habitually moving his legs slightly. When he moved in front of everyone, he smiled and said, "Okay, go play by yourselves."
The children dispersed obediently.
Nangong Honglie looked at his son with a smile: "Tell me about your achievements."
“Not bad, a lot of harvest!”
Nangong Yunsheng recounted in detail how the common people joined in, beat up Li Yulin, smashed the Prime Minister's Mansion, and sued the Prime Minister's Mansion.
