Chapter 528
Mrs. Chen glanced at it and immediately felt half of the anger in her heart dissipate: "That's how it should be! How dare they bully our daughter like that? Do they really think our daughter has no one to back her up!"
Chen Zongwen nodded: "How's your daughter?"
"She cried herself to sleep," Madam Chen sighed, a fierce glint flashing in her eyes. "This isn't enough. You have so many students and friends in the court. Mobilize everyone you can. I'm going to make that couple surnamed Yun apologize to our daughter!"
"good!"
Chen Zongwen readily agreed.
The next morning, Chen Zongwen went to the post station and asked them to send the memorial to Luoyang.
As for the letters to friends and students, they were escorted by a security escort agency. He paid a large sum of money for express delivery, so it shouldn't be much slower than the post stations.
After doing all this, Chen Zongwen finally felt at ease.
Next, we'll see what happens in Luoyang. Hopefully, his old friends won't let him down.
——
The next day.
Chen Zongwen's memorial entered Luoyang and went all the way to the Secretariat.
When Bai Shizhong saw the signature at the end of the memorial, his eyes widened. He carefully read the contents of the memorial and hurriedly went to the palace.
As soon as the memorial was handed to the emperor, the emperor's expression became quite interesting.
"That old geezer is still alive," the emperor chuckled.
Attendant Bai wiped away a bead of sweat: "Your Majesty, that gentleman is only in his forties, isn't he?"
The emperor chuckled: "Chen Zongwen... he actually changed his name. I was wondering why I couldn't find him all these years. That old bastard is really cunning."
The emperor read the memorial again.
"Xuan Yunqing".
Yun Changliang was in the Ministry of Revenue. Upon receiving the imperial edict, he quickly rushed over and paid his respects to the emperor.
"Get up."
Yun Changliang got up as instructed and waited for the emperor to speak.
"Yun Qing, do you still remember Xun Ze?"
"Lord Xun is a man of profound learning and both virtue and talent. He was even honored as the Crown Prince's Grand Tutor a few years ago, as I recall."
The Emperor nodded: "More than a decade ago, Xun Qing suddenly decided to retire from public life. Although I was reluctant to let him go, I had no choice but to let him go. So many years have passed since then, and there has been no news of Xun Qing. But now, I have found traces of him again."
As he spoke, the emperor tapped the memorial twice with his fingers.
Yun Changliang didn't understand what the emperor meant by suddenly mentioning Xun Ze in front of him, so he could only go along with the emperor's words and say, "Lord Xun is an important minister of the country, and now that he has reappeared, it is truly a blessing for our dynasty."
Hearing his words, the emperor suddenly smiled: "Speaking of which, this matter is all thanks to you."
"minister?"
Yun Changliang was even more confused.
Xun Ze had already left Luoyang. As a minister, he would never normally leave Luoyang. How could Xun Ze possibly reveal his whereabouts because of him?
But when Yun Changliang took the memorial from the eunuch and glanced at it, he understood everything.
No wonder they say it's because of him!
This entire article is criticizing him!
And they were pointing their fingers at him and cursing him!
Yun Changliang's face turned pale, and he immediately knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, please understand! I do not understand where I have offended Lord Xun, and why Lord Xun would treat me like this—"
He recalled the phrase "a father who is not kind," and his voice suddenly caught in his throat.
He didn't have many children, and as a father, he felt he had a clear conscience, except for... Yunxi.
Could it be that Xun Ze wrote a memorial specifically to scold him because Yun Xi came here?
Yun Changliang suddenly remembered something, reopened the memorial, and looked at the last signature.
