Chapter 536 I feel honored
No matter what the purpose was, Nan Yu really wanted to do something for Mo Jiuye.
Although it was a bit troublesome to arrange for him to kill his enemy, he had to do it.
"In that case, thank you very much, Third Prince."
Mo Jiuye had been in a high position before, so he certainly knew that his request was not easy to fulfill. However, Nan Yu agreed without any hesitation, and he also expressed his sincere gratitude.
Nan Yu now had only one goal in mind, so he naturally didn't need Mo Jiuye to be so polite. Not only that, he also promised:
"Don't worry, Master Jiu. I will definitely do what I promised, and I will do it as soon as possible so as not to delay your return to the northwest.
Also, if I ever come to power, the first thing I will do is to vindicate your Mohist school."
Whether his injustice was redressed was no longer important to Mo Jiuye. Now his Mo family was reunited. If it weren't for those villains, he would be living a more comfortable life than anyone else.
But he would not refuse the other party's kindness in person.
"Then I would like to thank the Third Prince first."
"We've been through so much together, and I've long considered you a good friend and confidant. I feel honored to be able to do something for you."
Mo Jiuye achieved his purpose of waiting for Nan Yu to come back. After exchanging a few words with him, he took He Zhiran back to the Shangshu Mansion.
He Shangshu did not rest at this time. In less than a month, he experienced and saw so much.
After returning home, he sat alone in the study and pondered.
He was sorting out what had happened during this period in his mind, and at the same time he was asking himself in his heart whether he was tired of such a life.
Finally, his heart told him that he was indeed a little tired.
What to do when you feel tired?
He opened the letter that his wife had asked his daughter to bring to him and read it again. Inexplicably, he missed his family members more and more.
His daughter was exiled to the northwest with the Mo family, and he never thought he would have the chance to meet her again.
Not only that, my son and wife also fell in love with the place after they went there.
His wife even said in the letter that no matter whether he chose to go to the northwest to reunite with them and his mother, she had no intention of coming back.
After much thought, Minister He felt that family was the most important.
In particular, my wife said in the letter that our daughter gave birth to a pair of twin brothers and sisters, who were extremely cute.
Thinking of the pair of grandchildren whom he had never met, he wanted to hug them in his arms and kiss them immediately.
Therefore, when Mo Jiuye and He Zhiran appeared in front of him, the first thing Minister He said was:
"Ranran, Jiuye, Dad has made up his mind. I promise you will live in the northwest."
Without waiting for He Zhiran and Mo Jiuye to speak, he continued, "However, you can only do so after you resign from your official position."
He Zhiran was overjoyed at this moment. In her opinion, her father's loyalty to the country could not be described in words.
The fact that he could make such a decision showed that he had made a great determination.
"Dad, I believe you won't regret it when you get to the Northwest."
This is all He Zhiran can say now. One can only fully appreciate the pleasant life in the Northwest after experiencing it personally.
Minister He was willing to resign not because of the comfortable life in the northwest, but to be able to live with his family. Moreover, after this incident, he was completely tired of the intrigues in the court.
He was also feeling fortunate in his heart. If his daughter and son-in-law had not been there when Eunuch Liu brought his men, he would have probably drunk the poison without hesitation and lost his life.
"Dad has made up his mind and will not regret it."
Although Minister He said this, he was still habitually enthusiastic about court affairs.
Especially since he had experienced a lot these days, and thinking about these things in his heart, he did not feel sleepy at all even in the middle of the night, so he pulled Mo Jiuye and He Zhiran aside and talked about what he had seen today.
This is a good thing. Mo Jiuye and his wife did not ask Nan Yu about these things, but instead learned everything from Minister He.
…
Emperor Shunwu was deeply shocked by this incident and fell ill as soon as he returned to his bedroom.
In desperation, he could only let Nan Yu temporarily take charge of the government.
In order to help Nan Yu establish his prestige, he summoned several important officials in the court and publicly announced his identity as a prince.
After hearing what Emperor Shunwu said, the ministers suddenly realized that it was no wonder that Prince Qi was thrown into jail, and the people who handled the matter were indeed his staff.
It turns out that Nanyu is the real third prince.
It’s no wonder that the emperor was angry. If they encountered such a thing, let alone putting Nan Qi in jail, it would not be an exaggeration to even kill him in public.
The first thing Nan Yu did after taking power was to hold a funeral for the Queen Mother, and then he conducted groundbreaking trials on the Xue family with thundering means.
After three days of continuous interrogation, Fei Nanyu compiled the criminal files of the Queen and her party overnight and presented them to Emperor Shunwu in the palace the next morning.
After being treated by the imperial physician, Emperor Shunwu was no longer in serious condition. Although he could not attend the morning court, he had no problem looking at the files.
In the past, he trusted Prime Minister Xue very much and always felt that the latter had made many contributions to the Dashun Dynasty and the country. His biggest mistake was that he conspired with the queen to usurp the throne.
Unexpectedly, the file Nan Yu handed over to him turned out to contain so much evidence of the Xue family's crimes.
Emperor Shunwu had few children, and it turned out to be the Empress's doing.
Whenever a concubine in the harem became pregnant, she would try her best to make her have an abortion.
Prime Minister Xue and his clansmen accepted bribes, secretly withheld food and fodder from the border, cheated in the imperial examinations, and embezzled military pay...
In short, the entire Xue family, including the queen, can be said to have done all kinds of evil.
Most importantly, this time Nan Yu also found out all the facts about how they framed the Mo family.
Prime Minister Xue confessed under torture that the Mohists had not committed any act of treason and betrayal, and that it was all a frame-up devised by the Xue family in order to seize military power.
The letters between Mo Jiuye and Nanjiang were also forged by Nan Heng and the Queen of Nanjiang.
The people who are truly in collusion with Southern Xinjiang are the Xue family and Nan Heng.
With this testimony, Mo Jia can completely clear himself of the injustice.
After reading it, Emperor Shunwu threw the file heavily on the table, his veins bulging with anger.
"Pass on my decree. The entire Xue family will be executed in three days. All nine clans will be implicated."
At the same time, Emperor Shunwu also fell into deep self-blame.
No one knew better than him, the emperor, how the men of the Mohist School died on the battlefield. Now that he saw Prime Minister Xue personally telling the story of how he framed the Mohist School, he was extremely upset.
In the year since Mojia was exiled to the northwest, the border wars have never stopped, and he has faced a situation where no one is available many times.
He had thought many times about the time when the Mohist School was around. Whether it was the southern border or the barbarians, considering the bravery of the Mohist men, even if they wanted to provoke them, they had to think twice.
