Chapter 303 Evidence of Crime
Ling Fengyan didn't care about the little emperor playing dumb in front of him.
He just needed to know who the traitor hiding beside him was.
As for the crime of collusion with the enemy and selling out the country?
Who can convict him? Himself?
"I feel relieved that the emperor trusts me so much. In this case, please watch the show with peace of mind."
Ling Fengyan's voice was unhurried, as if everything was under his control.
There was no special expression on that extremely handsome face, and his eyes were cold.
Just when the soldiers below were a little unpredictable and uneasy, they heard Ling Fengyan say, "Bring the people up."
"Yes!"
The guards guarding the door received the order and quickly walked out.
After an incense stick of time, a group of people walked out of the path outside, with two figures standing in the middle.
One of them was a young woman with her hair tied up high, wearing a blue long skirt, and holding a little boy of eight or nine years old by her side.
The fabrics of the two people's clothes were ordinary, not rich, but there were no patches on their clothes. The woman and the child had fair and rosy skin, and their eyes were bright, and it can be seen that they had a good life on weekdays.
The woman and the child looked a little flustered when they saw so many guards with swords.
As soon as they entered the door, they knelt on the ground with their heads down, looking terrified.
"Greetings, sir!"
When Zhao Jun saw the woman and the child who suddenly appeared here, his expression obviously changed a little, and the pupils in his eyes suddenly contracted.
Ling Fengyan raised his eyes slightly and said in a cold voice: "Zhao Jun, I will give you one last chance."
Zhao Jun's eyes had changed, and he was extremely flustered. He looked at the woman beside him with a slightly hoarse voice.
"Why are you and Long'er here?"
The woman heard the familiar voice, as if she had found her backbone. Tears welled up in her eyes, and she kneeled and crawled a few steps subconsciously, approaching Zhao Jun.
"Brother Jun, a group of people wearing armor captured me and Long'er. Did you offend some important person? Tell them quickly that I and Long'er are innocent!"
Zhao Jun never thought that the two people he hid in the border town would be brought here.
The other generals saw the woman and felt that she looked familiar, as if they had seen her somewhere before.
Suddenly, He Zhongguo remembered and said with wide eyes: "Isn't she the daughter of the Kong family in Nanyun City?"
After his reminder, the others also remembered.
The woman froze, and her face showed panic. She raised her head and pulled Zhao Jun's sleeve in a charming way.
"Brother Jun, Jiaojiao is scared."
Zhao Jun was confused when he saw her crying.
Someone beside him continued to say, "The Kong family was once a wealthy business in Nanyun City. They bullied the people and did many evil things. They spent countless money to bully men and women. They also kept many women and tortured them to death. Later, the prince brought people to confiscate the Kong family and beheaded the head of the Kong family as an example to the public."
An Yunxi, who was holding the baby, heard what the generals said below, and her eyes gradually widened. She didn't expect to hear such gossip.
Almost in an instant, she understood why Zhao Jun suddenly betrayed her prince.
The other party used the beauty trap to seduce
This young lady of the Kong family went from being the daughter of the richest businessman, enjoying a glorious and wealthy status, to falling into the mire in an instant. Her food, clothing and expenses were not even half of what they used to be. How could she not hate Ling Fengxun, the man who ruined her family!
However, with her status, she could not get close to Ling Fengxun at all, so she seduced Ling Fengxun's trusted subordinates. The two of them developed feelings for each other. Zhao Jun was influenced by her, and of course he wanted to vent his anger for his beloved
She understood everything!
Ling Fengxun opened his lips again: "Don't you want to say it?"
Zhao Jun's cheeks flushed red, and he was silent for a long time under the questioning of the prince.
"Take her away for interrogation."
Ling Fengxun meant to interrogate Kong Jiaojiao.
The young woman panicked instantly, and she immediately hugged Zhao Jun: "Brother Jun, save me, Jiaojiao doesn't want to die."
Zhao Jun hugged Kong Jiaojiao.
Then he knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Ling Fengxun.
His mind was blank, and the worry in his heart was about to overflow.
"Prince, calm down. I really don't know what to explain. Although Jiaojiao is the daughter of the Kong family and has some feelings for me secretly, she is innocent and has done nothing!"
Ling Fengxun said: "I don't want to hear this. You should know that I am the murderer of her father."
The sweat on Zhao Jun's forehead was about to come out.
After the Kong family was confiscated, all the family members dispersed, and Ling Fengxun did not continue to kill the Kong family.
But those who enjoy the benefits brought by the Kong family are probably about to hate Ling Fengxun in their hearts.
Kong Jiaojiao also knelt on the ground and cried to Ling Fengxun: "My lord, although I am a daughter of the Kong family, I have been raising my child with Jun Ge at home all these years, and have never interfered with Jun Ge's military affairs. I am just a woman, I don't know any great principles, and it is thanks to Jun Ge that I can live to this day. If you don't want Jun Ge and me to be together, I will take the child and leave Jun Ge, go far away and never come back!"
Zhao Jun's face suddenly changed.
"Your Majesty, I was wrong to hide this matter. I was afraid that you would disagree with Jiaojiao's identity, so I didn't tell you. I really have never done anything to let you down!"
The voices of the two echoed in the hall.
For a moment, the minds of the other generals were also a little hesitant.
Seeing Zhao Jun protecting the daughter of the Kong family like this and secretly having a child with her, everyone was shocked.
The child looked seven or eight years old, which means that this matter has been hidden for seven or eight years.
He Zhongguo suddenly asked: "General Zhao, although the identity of the daughter of the Kong family is indeed a bit sensitive, you shouldn't have hidden it from your brothers for so long. We thought you still didn't have a woman by your side, and wanted to find one for you, but we didn't expect the child to be so big now."
Zhang Hu also said: "What do you think of the prince? At the beginning, the prince did not kill the rest of the Kong family, so naturally he would not pursue it further. The head of the Kong family deserved it. You know how many evil things he has done and how many innocent people died in his hands. The prince killed him to get rid of harm to the people!"
Zhao Jun lowered his head, his face full of regret.
"Could it be that the prince suspected me because of this matter? If so, I am willing to accept the punishment. After all, I was wrong first and should not have concealed anything from the prince!"
He respectfully knocked his head on the ground with a pious look, as if he was waiting for judgment.
