Chapter 240 Execution

Wu Yang Bokong had a title but no real power. He was accused of stolen the country by communist enemies. As the prefect of Songyang, he had his own responsibilities to verify it. In addition, the intervention of the Duke of Anguo Mansion, there were enough people to prove it, so it was reasonable to temporarily seize it.

The prefect of Songyang and Duke Anguo both wrote memorials to enter the capital. Now it is time for war, and there is no need to send relevant people to the capital to question. As long as the imperial edict is issued and the rank of Wuyang is removed, the prefect of Qi can be executed.

The ending is inevitable, without any suspense.

But some people are not easy to deal with.

"Awan." Miao looked at her niece, a little difficult to say, but she had to say, "Your third uncle has done many unrighteous things, and he was responsible for this ending. But A Song and A Yun were not aware of this. They were still young, and if they were implicated and questioned, they would be innocent..."

"I understand what the aunt means."

Ji Wan's expression was faint, "Although the third uncle committed a death sentence, he was not the mastermind, at most he was an accomplice. Your Majesty was generous and kind, and he would not commit any crime of implicating them. The most likely he was to dismiss them as official slaves."

Miao was stunned, "Official slave?"

"right."

Ji Wan said: "Official slaves are lowly and have no status and do not have to pay cap taxes. Some do some hard labor in the palace or are assigned to the homes of favored ministers as slaves."

If it was just an ordinary servant, the master would not despise his life at will no matter what. However, the official slaves themselves are guilty, so even if they were sold to nobles as slaves, they would be bullied. Even if they died, they would just be wrapped in a straw mat and thrown into a mass grave. No one would regret it.

Miao didn't say anything for a moment.

"This is the best ending." Ji Wan's tone was indifferent, "Like masterminds like Wu Yangbo and Cen Hongguang, who committed such a serious crime of corruption, their families either exiled to the bitter and cold place, and all exiled criminals had to walk there. They slept in the open, without covering their clothes, and ate very sloppy. They could easily breed some diseases and no one to treat them. Usually, many people would die of illness on the way before they arrived. Secondly, they rushed into the sect and became prostitutes, drifting all their lives and could not redeem themselves."

Miao sighed after hearing this.

"My third brother and one person commits a crime, but he has never considered two children."

Ji Wan was silent for a while and said, "In fact, with the status of Duke Anguo Mansion, the emperor is likely to divide them into Duke Anguo Mansion. I can make the decision to release the slave books for them, get rid of the slave family, and give them their freedom."

Miao's eyes lit up.

"To be honest, I don't like Ji Yun. She almost killed me. I can't be so generous to help her when she is in trouble. But after all, her surname is Ji, and she is of the same family as me, and she is indeed innocent this time. And Ah Song... They are all descendants of the Ji family, and even if my mother knows, she will not sit idly by. I will do my best to save them this time." Ji Wan's expression was still indifferent without any ripples, "But at that time they had no parents, so they could only be raised by their relatives. My mother has remarried, and the Xiao family can't accommodate them. So..."

Miao understood, "Your uncle said that the child is innocent and is a family. If they can really escape from sin, we should fulfill our responsibilities and raise them until they become adults."

**

The memorials of Wu Yangbo and Cen Hongguang were sent to the imperial case of Emperor Mingde. He was a good-tempered person, but now he was in trouble with internal and external troubles. The two of them were like adding fuel to the fire. Unexpectedly, Emperor Mingde was furious and cut off Wu Yangbo's title and was executed on the spot. His wife was also guilty of being the same, and other families rushed to the court as prostitutes. As for Cen Hongguang, even though Yongchang Hou was unaware of this matter, he was still angry and demoted to the throne, abolishing the right to be hereditary, and gradually heading to the end.

The two major families of marquis and uncles were eliminated.

Reporting the meritorious Yue and Wang, the family redeem their sins and redeem their freedom. Yue exposed her parents-in-law. Although this move was a great thing, it seemed too ruthless and her parents' family could not tolerate her. Fortunately, she had her own dowry, so she set up a new mansion and raised her young son alone.

Wang had no son and did not drag him down. After his reform, his brother was deeply guilty of her and took her back to his parents' home for retirement.

Ji Yun and Ji Song were indeed divided into the Duke of Anguo as slaves.

The matter came suddenly, Ji Yun and Ji Song didn't even react, and their families were already banned. They were still half-aged children, and they were scared to tears at that time. The yamen runners had given orders in advance, and did not tie the two of them up, but ordered people to remove their Chinese clothing accessories and escort them to the Duke of Anguo's Mansion.

"Mrs. Young Madam, I have brought you."

The yamen runners saluted respectfully and were quite polite.

Ji Yun held his younger brother's hand and looked at Ji Wan, who was sitting there with red crying eyes.

The cousin under the same roof is now a noble lady, and she is a prisoner under her feet, waiting for her kindness to survive.

In recent years, it is not the first time that Ji Yun has realized what evil is to be punished. When she was separated, when she was sued and imprisoned, and when she was disliked and made things difficult by her grandmother... But never once did she realize so clearly the mistakes she made when she was young.

Four years ago she pushed Ji Wan into the river, and four years later she became a slave at Ji Wan's feet.

She thought that there is indeed a cycle of laws and laws in this world, and the retribution of causes and consequences.

Ji Yun bit his lip and regretted it.

After sending off the yamen runners' officer, Ji Wan lowered her eyes slightly to Ji Yun and Ji Song kneeling on the ground.

"Get up."

Ji Song was still sobbing. When he looked up and saw Ji Wan, he wanted to call Sister Wan, but his elder sister pulled her sleeves hard. He didn't understand, but he still closed his mouth obediently and looked at his cousin sitting timidly.

"Do you know, why are you here?"

Ji Yun shook and said in a trembling voice: "Before I came, I heard from the officers and soldiers."

She looked cowardly and timid, and she was not as arrogant as she was in Yi Village that day.

Ji Wan sighed softly.

After all, they are not the original body, and it is not entirely true to say that they hate each other. Now, looking at the miserable appearance of the two, no matter how many grudges and grudges they have, they have all disappeared.

Ji Yun asked in a low voice again: "I heard from them that my father committed a serious crime of treason and was killed three days later."

The little girl who had never seen a big scene before, and at the end of the day, tears came out again.

Ji Song was crying too.

The two and a half-old children are already dressed thinly, and they look even more miserable and pitiful when they cry.

Although Ji Yuan didn't care much about them, he at least provided their residence so that they could have no worries about food and clothing. Now his only relative is charged with treason and is about to be beheaded. Even if they survived by chance, they could not escape rumors like a knife in the world.

How can such a young child bear it?

Even Ji Wan felt that the two of them were indeed miserable.

"Do you know what treason means?"

Ji Yun nodded crying, and his hand holding his younger brother was still trembling.

"You are now identities and cannot see you off."
