There are also rumors that Wang Zihang accidentally killed Princess Pingyang and committed suicide to accompany her.
In short, there were various theories, but no one had connected Li Guixiang and her son, until...
In the afternoon, someone appeared on the city wall. The person was wearing a veil and dropped pieces of rice paper with words written on them from the city wall.
According to that person, he was commissioned by Wang Zihang to make the truth public.
When the guards went to catch this person, he disappeared without a trace.
The capital was full of scholars, and soon someone read out the contents of the paper aloud. The contents were horrifying. It clearly stated how he was controlled by Prince Yu and why he wanted to marry Princess Pingyang.
Every single incident and every single thing is made clear to the public.
Citizens all over the city were discussing this matter, and none of them could believe it. They had once thought that the person who was trying to curry favor with the powerful and influential was actually such a person.
Bei Yutang and his group naturally also saw Wang Zihang's handwritten suicide note. Everyone looked at the suicide note and did not speak for a long time.
"I didn't expect it to be like this. We wrongly blamed him."
Wang Zihang died. Before his death, he cleared Li Guixiang's name and told the world that she was his wife. However, she could not see all this.
Bei Yutang stood up and looked towards the palace.
Rights are such a good thing.
It is so difficult for the powerless to overthrow the powerful, but it is so easy for the powerful to kill the powerless.
A vague curve appeared at the corner of Bei Yutang's lips.
Hua Ziyun noticed that Bei Yutang was in a bad mood and wanted to comfort her, but was stopped by Xiao Moer.
Xiao Moer shook his head at him and signaled everyone to leave.
Prince Yu was in a high position and had great power. Even though the Imperial Censor had submitted an impeachment memorial, except for a few hostile officials in the court, the rest of the people remained silent. Finally, due to the rumors spread by the people, the Emperor punished Prince Yu by fining him a year's salary and forcing him to reflect on his mistakes facing the wall for a month.
Bei Yutang wasn't surprised to learn of this outcome. The emperor still had use for him, so naturally, he wouldn't punish him. And since Wang Zihang had no backers, naturally, no one would stand up for him.
It's normal for this matter to have such an outcome.
If it weren't for the purpose of quelling the rumors outside and giving an explanation to the people, I'm afraid there wouldn't even be this little punishment.
Outside the city gate, Hua Ziyun looked at the carriage that was moving further and further away with reluctance.
Chu Yu looked at the carriage disappearing at the end, "Ziyun, let's go."
"Cousin, is Aunt Mu very disappointed in us?" Hua Ziyun murmured.
The "we" he mentioned represented the royal family.
"No. Because she understands this."
"Understanding does not mean agreement." Hua Ziyun thought of this sentence, which was once said by Aunt Mu.
Chu Yu sighed secretly, "Before you have strength, you can't change anything. Only when you become strong, you can change it and make the world do what you want."
Hua Ziyun's eyes lit up, and a seed of desire was planted in his heart.
How strong can one be to change...
Hua Ziyun looked towards the direction of the imperial palace. Perhaps the only way to achieve this was to sit in that position.
In the eyes of many people, this incident was just a casual talk after dinner, but it changed the future pattern of the Great Zhou Dynasty, or rather, it changed a person and brought about a butterfly effect.
A horse-drawn carriage sped along the official road, raising a cloud of yellow dust.
