"No, no, no, no, Your Majesty, please don't!"
"I know I was wrong, and I will never do it again. Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"
Zhang burst into tears. She completely lost her arrogant confidence and fell to her knees tremblingly.
The look he gave Su Lili was also filled with humble pleading. If he had a tail, it would surely be wagging it happily now.
"Little princess, I really didn't mean it. Please don't hold it against me. Please, please!"
"I have a lot of candy, gold, silver and jewelry here. Take them all. They are all yours!"
[You almost strangled me to death just now, and now you have the nerve to ask me to save you, hahaha, how funny! ]
[Not only will I not save you, I will also produce evidence to push you into a deeper and more terrifying hell. Just wait and see! ]
Su Lili snuggled in Emperor Jian'an's arms, took out the list and handed it to him, babbling and pointing at Zhang's room.
Seeing the list, Emperor Jian'an raised his eyebrows. At the top were a few big words - Evidence of dealings with officials.
...
...
Then, there are various details and prices for various official ranks, clearly marked.
Looking at Meng Kai with a serious gaze, Emperor Jian'an curled up the corner of his mouth with a hint of sneer.
Meng Kai's heart tightened when he was looked at, but he forced a smile and tried to speak in a friendly manner.
"Your Majesty? The little princess is frightened. Why don't you come to the front yard and have a cup of goat's milk? My wife likes to drink goat's milk. The kitchen always has some warmed up with hot water."
[No, I don’t drink! ]
Su Lili shook her head like a rattle and clutched Emperor Jian'an's clothes tightly, refusing to let go.
Meng Kai was embarrassed after being humiliated. Before he could open his mouth to ease the atmosphere, Emperor Jian'an suddenly spoke in a cold voice.
"Minister Meng, you are really a very secretive person. You just kept saying that the official trafficking case had nothing to do with you, so what is this?"
When the list was shown to him, Meng Kai immediately leaned over to take a look, and his face instantly turned deathly pale.
His legs went limp and he knelt down, tears streaming down his face. "Your Majesty, I have no idea about this list! Please understand!"
"You didn't know?" Emperor Jian'an sneered, but there was no warmth in his eyes. "The little princess found it in your house, and you still say you didn't know? The evidence of buying and selling official positions is irrefutable, and you can't do anything about it, my dear."
In his arms, Su Lili panicked and waved her hands desperately, [Uncle is innocent, she, hers! ]
She? Who? Zhang?
Emperor Jian'an turned to look at Zhang, who was relieved, and listened carefully to Su Lili's thoughts.
[It's her. This is Zhang's room. I searched it out of Zhang's room. Meng Kai is innocent! ]
[Not only did Zhang almost kill me, he was also suspected of being involved in buying and selling official positions. He should be thrown into prison and suffer! ]
So, the real person who sold official positions was actually Zhang?
But how could she, a mere woman, interfere in the affairs of the court? So there must be an accomplice!
As for who the accomplice is, it is a bit unbelievable...
After realizing what was happening, Meng Kai became furious and started cursing at Zhang.
"Zhang, you are so bold. The Meng family has always been an upright and honest family. I never thought that we would fall into your hands in the end!"
"Selling official positions, selling official positions, this is pushing the whole clan into the fire pit!"
Meng Kai was furious and felt increasingly frightened.
Zhang was doing evil right under his nose, but he was kept in the dark and was fooled by her.
"Your Majesty, I was completely unaware of my wife's suspected involvement in official trafficking, but now that we have evidence, for the sake of justice, I implore Your Majesty to take her away for a thorough interrogation."
"Since this involves your Majesty's bottom line, I am willing to sacrifice my own family for the sake of justice. I only ask your Majesty to calm down and let the entire Meng family go!"
Meng Kai knelt upright, and every word he spoke was powerful.
Behind him, Zhang, who was terrified, was so angry that she almost vomited blood.
"Master, Master, tell them I'm innocent. I don't want to be tortured in the prison!"
"For the sake of our years of love, please save me, save me!"
Meng Yiyi, who had been silent for a long time, looked at her crying face and suddenly sneered and said, "Zhang, how do you want your father to save you? Admit that you are a government official and then get you out?"
"This... is not impossible, after all..."
Zhang murmured a few words, but then there was a "slap" sound and a blood mark appeared on her face.
"Zhang, Daddy really treated you well, but how did you treat Daddy and me? My biological mother died young, and you indulged me in eating, drinking, and having fun instead of studying, wanting to spoil me. Then you whispered in my ear and sow discord between Daddy and me!"
"Dad has been wrongly confined for the past few days. As the person who was actually involved in the case, you not only did not plead for dad, but you also did not turn yourself in to save dad. Instead, you even had the heart to go out and happily buy jewelry with the money you got from selling officials!"
"Even so, you still want Daddy to sacrifice himself to plead for you? You are such a shameless wicked woman!"
Meng Yiyi gritted her teeth and criticized Zhang harshly. At the side, Su Lili clapped her hands happily.
[Good job, sister, this is how you expose the true face of the bad guys! ]
[Zhang has committed many evil deeds and deserves retribution. His death is not a pity. I begged my father to come here, and it is the right thing to do! ]
Hearing Su Lili's voice, Meng Yiyi felt a little relieved and the corners of her mouth rose slightly.
Hey, did you hear that? The fairy princess actually recognized her! This is a huge honor!
Looking at the red and swollen scar on the baby's neck, how painful it must be. With a stab in the chest, the smile on Meng Yiyi's lips turned dull again.
At this moment, Su Lili seemed to remember something, and her eyes became bright.
[By the way, if you don’t want the Meng family to be implicated and sent to jail, there is actually a good way, that is to divorce your wife! ]
[As long as she divorces her wife, she will have nothing to do with the Meng family anymore. She can do whatever she wants! ]
Yes, why didn't I think of it? Meng Yiyi nodded and immediately whispered something in Meng Kai's ear.
Meng Kai also nodded, and immediately asked his servants to bring writing brush, ink, paper and inkstone, and he immediately wrote the letter of divorce.
"From now on, you are no longer the daughter-in-law of the Meng family, and everything in the Meng family has nothing to do with you anymore. This is the divorce letter, so keep it in your pocket."
Zhang was still thinking about how to save herself when she was suddenly slapped in the face with a divorce letter.
After looking at it in the moonlight, I felt dizzy and tears flowed more and more. "Master, we have been together for so many years. I have made contributions but I have worked hard. How can you be so heartless!"
"Then, do you have feelings? Do you dare to refute the accusations just now?"
"You are so heartless and ungrateful, and you still want to stay in our house and drag us down, Zhang, you have such a vicious heart!"
Emperor Jian'an clapped his hands, and immediately a group of guards rushed in, tied Zhang up like a dumpling and dragged her away.
Along the way, Zhang kept crying, but her mouth was blocked by rags.
