Yang Yongsheng and the second son of the Yang family were the first to follow.
Seeing this, Manager Fang quickly got up from the ground and followed first.
He always felt that today's plan went strangely smoothly.
But he didn't find anything special.
No matter what, the Yang family will die today.
Seeing this, the other officials had no choice but to grit their teeth and follow.
When everyone arrived outside the study, the female members of the family also received the news and were brought here as well.
"Someone, come and lift up the things under the tree." Qin Yuanhao stood at the front with his lips pursed. No one knew what he looked like at the moment.
"Master Zhou, go open the things yourself!"
When Director Zhou heard this, his face lit up with joy. He lowered his head and responded in a low voice.
Slowly open the wooden box lifted out from under the tree.
"Your Majesty, these must be evidence of Yang Yongsheng's collusion with foreign countries." Director Zhou confidently shook out the letter in his hand.
All the officials gathered around, and Zhou Zhushi passed the letter forward again.
But why did everyone's reaction differ from what he expected?
“There are scriptures all over it!”
"Look at this mark, it seems to be written in blood. It's really thoughtful."
"Everyone, look!"
"The end of the scripture reads: The Yang family will be loyal to the Great Qin for generations and will never betray the people of the Great Qin. It also has the signatures of everyone in the Yang family. What is this?"
"This was written by Old Madam Yang."
"The Yang family is loyal to the Qin Dynasty. Madam Yang passed away three years ago. Does this mean that this was written by Madam Yang herself before General Yang left for the war three years ago?"
The voices that rang out one after another made Master Zhou feel as if he were in another world.
These words are not right!
Shouldn't we curse the Yang family and accuse them of treason?
"Impossible, these are the evidence of General Yang's treason!" Director Zhou turned over the thing in his hand and found that it was indeed scriptures.
He hurriedly checked the other letters and found that they were all scriptures without exception.
Which link went wrong?
He looked up suddenly and happened to meet Yang Yongsheng's half-smile.
He, could it be that the Yang family already knew that they were going to take action today?
Impossible, absolutely impossible.
There are so many people here today, and how could the other party so accurately judge that the thing must be under this tree?
His thoughts raced, and he shouted, "Your Majesty, please investigate. General Yang must have replaced the letter and buried the scripture here."
"This scripture should be placed in the ancestral hall. Why would such an important thing be buried in the ground?"
As soon as he said this, the officials around him began to discuss it.
"What a joke! Wait until you see what's in the box before you say these things!" General Yang's words immediately drew everyone's attention back.
Everyone then looked into the dug pit and found that there seemed to be something there.
Under the confused eyes of Zhou Zhushi, Yang Jia Erlang stepped forward and dug out the thing.
After seeing the seal above, what else could people not understand?
"Before my mother passed away, she asked me to be buried with her under this tree. Her greatest concern was the Yang family. The battlefield was unpredictable, and no one knew if I would survive and return. These are all amulets my mother hand-sewn to protect the safety of the men of the Yang family."
"As for why I was buried under this tree, my father taught me martial arts under this tree since I was a child. It can be said that this tree has accompanied me growing up, so why not bury me here?"
"But, Mr. Zhou, how did you know there was something buried under this tree in my house?"
Every time Yang Yongsheng spoke, Director Zhou's face turned paler.
"That's nonsense! You must have known about what's going to happen today and made preparations in advance."
"Besides, this tree was found by the Imperial Guards. It has nothing to do with me."
"Your Majesty, Yang Yongsheng is talking nonsense. You must not believe him. He must have had dealings with the Sang Kingdom for a long time, otherwise how could he be so thorough." Chief Zhou became more and more anxious as he spoke.
"Really? In that case, Mr. Zhou, can you tell me where the letter you handed over today came from?" Qin Yuanhao looked at Mr. Zhou with interest.
"Well, I also received an anonymous letter." Director Zhou knelt on the ground in a hurry, sweat dripping down his head like rain.
He still couldn't figure out which link went wrong.
Does the Qin Emperor really trust the Yang family so much?
"The Yang family is full of loyal and brave people. How could they possibly betray their country? Moreover, the Sang Kingdom is so small. Isn't it a foolish dream to dream of swallowing up our Great Qin?"
"General Yang's daughter is in the palace, what reason does he have to commit treason?"
Qin Yuanhao nodded in his heart when he heard these words.
In the prophecy told by the little princess, it was Concubine Jin and Prime Minister Jin who sentenced the Yang family to death.
But if you think about it deeply, there are many loopholes in this matter.
Why do these people still do this after the plot has changed? This is what Qin Yuanhao can't figure out.
"The Yang family didn't find any letters, but the half of the letter you handed over seems a little strange. In that case, I will invite Chief Zhou to the Dali Temple until the truth is revealed."
"Your Majesty, everything I do is for our Great Qin!" Seeing the surrounding imperial guards approaching him, Zhou Zhushi crawled madly towards Qin Yuanhao.
Unbeknownst to the crowd, he made a gesture.
Unfortunately, this gesture was seen clearly by Yang Jia Erlang who had been staring at him.
"Kill the Emperor of Qin."
"Your Majesty, be careful."
Two voices sounded at the same time.
Among the previous officials, some servants had mixed in on their way to the study.
Everyone thought they were just servants of the Yang family, but only now did they realize that these people were actually assassins. They had surrounded them and some of them had even directly captured several officials.
