Upon hearing that the marriage proposal had not been completed, Sun Shaozu frowned.
Isn't the historian's weight enough? It shouldn't be! Unless...
The Jia family already has a candidate for a son-in-law, but they haven't set their eyes on the second daughter yet.
Yes, that must be it.
Otherwise he would have such good conditions.
Sun Shaozu was both angry and furious, and decided to find out who the Jia family had chosen as their son-in-law.
If he couldn't do it openly, how could he do it secretly? Sun Shaozu made up his mind and told the housekeeper to check.
However, before he could find anything, a familiar person in the Ministry of War sent a message to ask him if he had offended someone and was kicked off the waiting list. Sun Shaozu immediately became anxious.
Dazhao fought for several years and became stronger and stronger.
If there were any good vacancies in the Ministry of War, they would have been taken by those who had made contributions.
He finally got in...
Sun Shaozu went to the Ministry of War in a hurry, but he didn't expect that Minister Yuan, whom he had been asking for an audience for a long time but never got the chance, actually met him. However, what greeted him was not warm words and laughter, but a violent storm.
Several memorials impeaching him were thrown at him.
"Look what you've done."
Lord Yuan looked at him coldly, "You have brought shame to the Ministry of War and your ancestors."
What do you mean by returning home to observe mourning? Bullshit.
This bastard took advantage of the position of commander he had seized and committed several serious crimes upon returning to his hometown.
Invading people's fertile land, kidnapping people's wives and daughters, stealing people's lives, and bullying the people...
Relying on the fact that the county magistrate had a past relationship with the Sun family, he killed two people who wanted to sue him.
As a result, all five members of a family were killed.
"Just wait for your house to be raided!"
What? Sun Shaozu picked up one of the impeachment memorials with shaking hands, which listed all his crimes in the village.
This this?
Sun Shaozu's legs went limp and he fell to the ground.
How is that possible?
They were all covered tightly.
How could it be exposed? "Sir, you are innocent!"
He knelt down and cried out for justice, but unexpectedly, Minister Yuan had already waved his hand, "The evidence is irrefutable. It's too late for you to say anything now. Come, strip him of his official uniform and take him to Shuntian Prefecture."
"No, sir, sir, it's unfair, sir!"
But it's too late.
Two strong soldiers rushed in quickly and dragged him away.
Sun Shaozu never thought that he would end up like this.
Finally, he saw the familiar chief clerk, "Brother Chen, Brother Chen, save me, save me!"
But Chen Zhubo seemed not to see or hear anything, and he walked away in a hurry.
"No, no no~"
Even when he was thrown into Shuntian Prefecture Prison, Sun Shaozu was still unable to react.
Who did he offend? Who wanted to harm him like this?
He can write a letter of self-defense!
What do you mean by invading other people's fertile land? He was clearly buying it.
What do you mean by kidnapping someone's wife and daughter? It was obvious that the man owed his family money and took his wife and daughter to pay off the debt.
What about private life and bullying the people...
He can argue!
After much begging and pleading, his old housekeeper finally showed up and Sun Shaozu learned that some important figure had investigated him and had sent the evidence directly to the Censorate.
Today, as soon as he left home to go to the Ministry of War, his house was raided.
The old butler escaped the disaster because his married daughter used her connections to redeem him.
"No, how could this happen? Who is it?"
Sun Shaozu has always been kind to others in Beijing and would never easily make enemies with others. "Uncle, please go to Rongguo Mansion and Baolinghou Mansion to ask for help. I..."
"Master, I've been there."
The old housekeeper also felt as if the sky had fallen. "The people at Rongguo Mansion didn't let me in, but the Shi family of Baolinghou did let me in. However, when they heard that you were imprisoned in Shuntian Mansion, they immediately kicked me out!"
Sun Shaozu: “…”
He was trembling all over, not knowing which god he had offended.
"Go, go find Chen Zhubo. He must know who is messing with me in the Ministry of War."
The key is to know who he offended.
Only then can you find a way to escape punishment.
"Hurry, hurry up, as long as he can get away with it and go home, I will give him 60% of my property."
He still has the official uniform on him.
How many officials are clean? Even if all the charges are proven, as long as there is one person who can help speak a word to the emperor, he will definitely be given a lighter sentence.
With this beautiful wish in mind, Sun Shaozu gave the old butler a location. It was an ordinary house, but he buried some gold and silver in the yard.
A few days later, the old housekeeper came.
He carried two food boxes, gave one to the prison boss and one to Sun Shaozu.
"uncle!"
The old housekeeper saw Sun Shaozu was like being released from prison, chewing the chicken leg, and wiped away tears as if he was very sad. "I have already found out clearly, it was Xing Guanshi from Ningguo Mansion who did it."
What? Sun Shaozu was stunned.
After returning to Beijing, he wanted to get close to the Ningguo Mansion, but Jia Zhen was very busy and he never found an opportunity.
He had never offended him! "I...I...I have never offended Ningguo Mansion."
"Ning and Rong are one."
The old housekeeper's eyes flashed a little, "Master, do you think you may have offended someone accidentally somewhere else?"
He knew that their master wanted to marry the second daughter of the Rongguo Mansion.
But he didn't dare say this out loud.
But...it's not impossible.
The master is still obsessed with the second young lady in the mansion, so it is normal for him to investigate.
If the old housekeeper could think of it, how could Sun Shaozu not think of it? He slowly put down the chicken leg in his hand, wishing he could beat himself to death for talking to Jia She that day.
"Go and ask... ask Jia She of Rongguo Mansion for mercy."
He was afraid and he didn't dare to do it again.
Now I just hope the Jia family can let him go.
But now that she had caught evidence of Sun Shaozu's evil deeds, how could Shen Ning let him go?
Within half a month, the verdict came down. His hereditary title was gone, his property was confiscated, he was beaten with twenty sticks, and exiled to Nangharwei to serve. Unless he made great contributions, he would not be allowed to return for the rest of his life.
Before leaving, Sun Shaozu thought that the old butler would come to see him off, after all, he still had a lot of gold and silver hidden away.
However, there was no one in the first row, and there was still no one in the second row.
Sun Shaozu was furious.
But at this time, his buttocks were still oozing with blood, and no one came to see him off.
By the time Jia She learned about Sun Shaozu from Jia Zhen, this guy had already been on the road of exile for a month.
He returned home in a daze, and told Xing about Sun Shaozu with lingering fear.
Xing was stunned and told Wang Xifeng about it.
Within a few days, Siqi told Yingchun everything she had found out.
"If we had known that bastard was so bad, we should have talked to the escort and made him suffer more on the road."
Siqi felt resentful and indignant.
How dare such a shitty thing covet the second girl?
“…What nonsense?”
Yingchun took the "Zizhi Tongjian" on the table. She had read this book every day since Chen Ning gave it to her. "Isn't the twenty strokes of the cane before leaving a punishment? Besides, is Nangharwei so easy to treat?"
She had never seen Sun Shaozu, but after hearing his name that day, she dreamed that there was a man who had been bullying her.
But she herself was weak and powerless.
She woke up in anger from her dream.
"There is a saying that life is worse than death!"
From being a servant of an official to being reduced to his current state, the sins he has endured along the way and for the rest of his life are his retribution. (End of this chapter)
