After marrying the heirless prince, I gave birth to three children

Chapter 408 I wish you meet a better person

Wang Ciyuan quickly understood what Zhao Hao meant, and felt happy but also a little nervous.

This was going to be a reckoning, and he went to the palace to meet the emperor, naturally to atone for his sins and sacrifice his relatives for the sake of justice.

In this way, even if the Wang family falls, he will not be implicated. He may even rise to the top by stepping on the Wang family because of his meritorious service this time.

"it is good!"

Wang Ciyuan clenched the letter in his hand and thought to himself, I should have stolen more earlier.

But he had already brought the most important letter, so this was enough.

When the news that Zhao Hao was going to the palace to meet the emperor reached Fengyi Palace, Xiao Ji and Xie Yao were just about to rest.

After the child fell asleep, the two of them exchanged some thoughts about their relationship as husband and wife, having just finished taking a bath.

Both of them knew that Zhao Hao's entry into the palace in the middle of the night must be something very important.

So Xiao Ji personally wiped Xie Yao's hair, and the two of them met Zhao Hao in Fengyi Palace.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty." Zhao Hao bowed and said directly, "I have the evidence of the Wang family!"

Xie Yao perked up and exchanged glances with Xiao Ji, "Really?"

"Come in."

At Zhao Hao's command, Wang Ciyuan immediately walked in from outside. As a candidate, he didn't need to kneel. Instead, he clasped his fists and said, "Student Wang Ciyuan pays respects to Your Majesty, Your Majesty."

After Wang Ciyuan finished speaking, he pulled out the evidence he had just obtained today from his sleeve and presented it with both hands. "I want to sue the Wang family for corruption, bribery, selling official positions, and using tricks to buy the people's land at low prices, causing the people to be displaced..."

Xie Yao was angry just by listening to every single thing. The Wang family... they deserved to have ten heads chopped off.

Wang Ciyuan was almost done listing the charges, "...collaborating with the enemy and treason, this is an unforgivable crime. Your Majesty, please, Your Majesty, make the decision for the people."

While Wang Ciyuan was speaking, Xiao Ji and Xie Yao were looking through the evidence and letters.

unambiguous evidence.

Xie Yao and Xiao Ji looked at each other and had already made up their minds. Since the evidence was conclusive, there was no need to tolerate the Wang family anymore.

"Come here," Xiao Ji ordered, "The Wang family has committed treason and collaborating with the enemy. Their crimes are unforgivable. Sinan, you will personally lead the Jinwu Guards to the Wang family and have them imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison."

"Master Zhao, Wang Ciyuan, you two will go together to search the Wang family's house and take inventory of their assets."

Xie Yao added, "Also, a notice has been issued to Jingzhao Prefecture to set up a government office for seven days. If anyone sues the Wang family, as long as there is evidence, Jingzhao Prefecture must accept the case."

In the early years, the Wang family was at its peak and no one dared to sue them. This time, everyone has a chance.

Xie Yao continued, "The Heavenly Prison must pay more attention. The Wang family is guilty, and the trial should be conducted as it should be. Before the verdict is made, the safety of the Wang family's women must be protected."

She was worried that someone would want to take revenge but would not dare to do anything to the men, so they would humiliate the women of the Wang family, especially in terms of their innocence... This was absolutely unacceptable.

Zhao Hao listened to everything and responded respectfully, "I will obey your majesty's orders."

It is not too late.

After Xie Yao and Xiao Ji finished their instructions, Zhao Hao and others did not stay in the palace for long. They quickly took the Jinwu Guards to do their work.

It is easy to search a house late at night.

The Wang family is very large, and they had been making trouble for half the night. As this incident spread in the capital, the news that the Wang family was collaborating with the enemy also spread.

So when the dust settled the next day, no civil or military official in the court dared to plead for the Wang family. Those court officials who had previously relied on the Wang family had been trying every possible way to sever ties with them since last night.

Of course, last night’s commotion was so big that it wasn’t just the Wang family whose property was confiscated. There were also several small families that were dragged into the matter by Lord Wang.

Now that the Wang family is being liquidated, everyone in Beijing is reminded of what happened to Xiao Ning back then, and everyone is naturally feeling insecure.

But the evidence was conclusive, and everyone was speechless. They could only curse in their hearts, saying that the Wang family was really ungrateful. Didn’t they know the temperament of the emperor and empress?

That's absolutely

She can't tolerate any sand in her heart, yet she still challenges the bottom line of the Emperor and Empress, even daring to do something like collaborating with the enemy...

Wang Ciming naturally didn't believe it at all.

He was fine yesterday, so why was he arrested today? Especially... the ones leading the charge were Zhao Haohe and Wang Ciyuan?!

How dare these two bitches plot against him!

Wang Ciming wanted to kill Zhao Hao and Wang Ciyuan in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it on his face.

He had just heard that the evidence was in his father's study.

and so……

He must never let his father know that he was the one who let the wolf into the house.

Wang Ciming was filled with hatred, but he still lay on the ground pretending to be unconscious, as if as long as he didn't wake up, all this would have nothing to do with him.

"Ci Yuan, Ci Yuan!"

At this moment, Wang Ciming heard the excited voice of the second wife of the Wang family, "Ciyuan, I am your mother. Is there any misunderstanding about this matter? Tell them to let me out quickly."

Wang Ciyuan didn't move, looking down at the second wife of the Wang family as if he was looking at a clown.

The second wife of the Wang family was looked at in such a way, and her cry for help gradually became lower. No matter how slow she was, she could see that something was wrong at this moment.

"You should be thankful." Wang Ciyuan looked at the Second Madam of the Wang family and said, "Be thankful that you have a good queen."

If the Queen Mother had not issued a clear order not to abuse lynching before the verdict was handed down, especially against women...how could he have let the murderer of his mother have such an easy time?

Madam Wang Er was frightened by the hatred in Wang Ciyuan's eyes. She stammered for a moment, and after a while she said, "You, you hate me, but your sister is innocent."

"She's still young, she doesn't know anything. She has always admired you as her brother. Ci Yuan, please let her go. Please."

Standing next to Madam Wang Er was a pitiful girl with red eyes. She was the fourth daughter of the Wang family, Wang Yuxiao, the daughter of Madam Wang Er.

She had already been engaged, but because Wang Yushu's wedding was postponed, the wedding date was set a little later.

After all, the older sister is not married, and if the younger sister gets married, it will seem like she can't get married. Besides, Wang Yuxiao is not very old and can stay for a few more years.

She looked at Wang Ciyuan at this moment, her eyes red, and finally turned away.

She used to have a very good relationship with her brother, so she found it even more difficult to accept now.

Wang Ciyuan is cruel to everyone else, but he can't bear to be cruel to Wang Yuxiao. However, Wang Yuxiao's mother is his enemy.

Wang Ciyuan stopped looking at Wang Yuxiao and instead questioned Madam Wang Er, "Wasn't I innocent back then?"

Mrs. Wang Er's lips moved but she couldn't speak.

At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded behind Wang Ciyuan, "Ciyuan, Ciyuan, look at me, I am your father."

The person who spoke was not someone else, but Mr. Wang Er, Wang Ciyuan's father.

Mr. Wang Er said, "I really don't know what happened in the past. That vicious woman, it's all that vicious woman!" He pointed at Mrs. Wang Er and said, "Please save me and plead for me. I'll divorce her when I get out!"

"Then make your mother your principal wife, and let her enjoy the offerings of fireworks all year round, okay?"

The Wang family, who had been relatively calm, became agitated after hearing what Master Wang said.

The Wang family is no longer what it used to be.

In the past, the Wang family even had the power to decide who would be the emperor, so they naturally valued gentlemanly integrity and had strict rules.

But the Wang family has been in decline for many years, and the spirit of the Wang family's descendants is no longer the same as before. The pleas for mercy from Mrs. Wang Er and Master Wang Er opened the first crack.

It’s just that Mrs. Wang Er did it for her daughter.

But Mr. Wang did it purely for himself.

Snapped!

As soon as Mr. Wang Erye finished speaking, he was slapped in the face. "Idiot!"

The one who took action was not someone else, but Lord Wang.

Lord Wang looked at Master Wang Er coldly, but in his heart he wanted to warn the Wang family members who were ready to act because of Master Wang Er's words.

"Do you think that by saying something like that, this evil creature will let you go? Forget it!"

Mr. Wang Erye has always been afraid of his elder brother. When he was beaten, he didn't dare to do anything. He could only cover his face with his hands, looking aggrieved.

"Ah."

A light laugh sounded, and Wang Ciyuan said, "With such courage, you still want me to save you? Useless thing."

After Wang Ciyuan finished speaking, he turned around and was about to leave.

Seeing that his figure was about to disappear from his sight, Master Wang Er suddenly felt courageous and raised his fist to hit Master Wang.

"Waste? Who is the waste anyway?! You even hit me. If it weren't for you, would we have been arrested?"

"You're collaborating with the enemy! You're actually collaborating with the enemy!" It was clear that Second Master Wang already harbored resentment towards Lord Wang. "You're trying to kill all of our clan!"

Mr. Wang Erye's words touched everyone's heart. Many people thought so in their hearts, but they did not dare to show it because of Mr. Wang's majesty.

At this moment, everyone felt refreshed.

There were even some people cheering in their hearts: That’s it, beat him!

As a son of an aristocratic family, he is naturally proficient in the six arts of a gentleman, and is skilled in riding and shooting. Lord Wang was also an expert in this field in the past, but he had been in the court for many years and had long neglected these skills.

It was Master Wang Er, who did not enter officialdom. He spent his days having fun and eating until he was fat. At this moment, he was stiff and pinned under Master Wang, who could not break free.

Lord Wang was almost angry to death. In all his years of life, he had never felt so humiliated as today.

But if he really fought with Wang Erye, it would only make things worse. He shouted angrily, "Are you dead? Hurry up and help!"

In the prison, men and women are held separately.

The people from the main branch of the Wang family were imprisoned in one cell, and the people from the side branch were imprisoned in another cell. Upon hearing what Lord Wang said, Lord Wang and several of Lord Wang's brothers immediately stepped forward.

Lord Wang's plan was to have them pull Mr. Wang away.

But for some reason, it didn't work.

Instead, a group of people were fighting in a group. Lord Wang only felt that he was hit by many punches in the chaos. What else did he not understand?

It wasn't just Wang Erye who had a grudge against him; his other brothers were also taking the opportunity to take revenge.

They were fighting in a group and naturally didn't notice that Wang Ciyuan had already left.

As soon as Wang Ciyuan left the prison, he saw the young eunuch waiting outside, "Young Master Wang, please come in."

Under his leadership, all the evidence of the Wang family's crimes was collected smoothly. Because the incident happened suddenly, everyone in the Wang family except him and Wang Yushu was imprisoned.

At this moment, he had finished his work and was going to the palace to report to the emperor and empress.

As for Zhao Hao, he had already gone outside the Imperial Examination Hall.

Today is the day when the second exam ends and he is going to pick someone up.

The Wang family's affairs have caused a lot of uproar, and it is impossible to completely isolate them. All Zhao Hao can do is to minimize the impact of this matter on Wang Yushu.

Of course, he had already made arrangements in advance, hoping that people at the inn would not discuss the matter.

At the same time and the same place, Zhao Hao waited for Wang Yushu.

Wang Yushu looked even weaker than last time, his face pale and he staggered as he walked. Seeing Wang Yushu about to fall in front of him, Zhao Hao didn't care about anything else and quickly reached out to support him.

"Yushu!"

Zhao Hao's voice was full of worry.

Wang Yushu stood firm, raised his eyes and smiled at Zhao Hao, "I'm fine, just a little tired."

Zhao Hao held Wang Yushu's arm and led her to the carriage.

The carriage was still equipped with the same provisions as last time, hot water, hot tea, hot food, and thick layers of warm and soft fur.

Wang Yushu took a sip of hot tea and felt like he was alive again.

She asked Zhao Hao with concern, "Didn't you sleep well last night, Hao?"

He looks very tired.

Zhao Hao paused, then said, "Yushu, I have something to tell you."

Zhao Hao also thought it over carefully. Although he knew it, it was obviously for Wang Yushu's own good not to tell her about it.

But he couldn't lock her up in an environment where it was impossible for her to hear the news. Since there was a possibility of knowing, he might as well tell her in person.

To prevent Wang Yushu from hearing some false news, which would affect her mood.

Zhao Hao was so serious that Wang Yushu's heart skipped a beat. He also became serious, "Ah Hao, go ahead."

Zhao Hao explained the current situation of the Wang family to Wang Yushu one by one. While he was speaking, he carefully paid attention to Wang Yushu's expression the whole time.

I’m worried that Wang Yushu won’t be able to accept it.

Although he knew that the Wang family was not good to Wang Yushu, and when Wang Yushi was still in the Wang family, Wang Yushu was treated even worse.

It was only after he got engaged that the Wang family began to pay some attention to Wang Yushu.

But Wang Yushu’s surname is Wang after all.

Wang Yushu had no expression on his face after listening to this.

Zhao Hao was a little worried, "Yushu, you..."

"Ah Hao." Wang Yushu looked at him, "Do you want to hear me tell the truth or a lie?"

what?

Zhao Hao didn't react for a moment. Wang Yushu's question was... weird.

But he quickly said, "Of course it's true."

There is nothing that cannot be discussed between him and Yushu.

Wang Yushu said, "The truth is, the Wang family should have been treated like this a long time ago. I'm not sad at all. I even feel happy."

"My mother, like my second brother's biological mother, was eaten alive by the Wang family." Wang Yushu said, "Ahao, I have always been extremely envious of you and your family."

"Uncle and aunt are so loving, and your family is so united...it's wonderful." Wang Yushu said this with a self-deprecating smile, took a few steps back, and said, "Just take me here, Ahao."

Zhao Hao sensed something was wrong with Wang Yushu's words, and said with caution in his anxious voice, "Yushu, are you angry?"

Wang Yushu shook his head, "No."

But now that she is the descendant of a criminal, her engagement with him must be annulled.

Wang Yushu lowered his eyes, hiding the darkness and loss in them.

She had no feelings for the Wang family. She just felt that... she had been so close to happiness, but in the end it was still out of reach.

The carriage stopped.

Neither of them showed any intention of getting out of the car. Zhao Hao looked at Wang Yushu, his lips tightly pursed. "Yushu, you should tell me what you're thinking."

Only by saying it out loud can he understand.

Wang Yushu moved his lips and said, "Ahao, I hope you meet someone better."
