Mrs. Cao calmed down her mood, then looked at Ye Mo: "What do you want me to do?"
Ye Mo: "I want to vindicate the Changle Marquis Mansion."
Mrs. Cao was silent for a while: "I helped you, how can you repay me?"
Ye Mo looked at her: "Not if you help me, without you, I can still bring down Duke Ping's Mansion, but the process will be more complicated." After a pause, "Let Luo Yuanlu destroy Duke Ping's Mansion with his own hands, Ye
The souls of those who died unjustly may be able to find better relief."
Mrs. Cao's heart tightened. She looked at Ye Mo who was as cold as ice and closed her eyes. When she opened them again, she said firmly: "I can testify in public about Duke Ping's slander of the Changle Marquis Mansion. I just ask you to let my son go."
.and Yun Ting.”
The entire family of Duke Qing was executed. Even though Luo Yuanlu was not the son of Duke Qing, he was still an adopted son and should not be alive according to the law.
As for Yun Ting, once his identity as Chu Qinghuan's son is revealed, he won't be able to survive.
Thinking of Cao Yunting, Mrs. Cao felt a twinge of pain in her heart. All her maternal love was given to this son, but he was the stain on her husband's betrayal.
Although she hates him very much, she doesn't want him to die either.
Ye Mo looked at Mrs. Cao and was silent for a long time: "Okay, I promise you. On the Laba Festival, you can give the emperor a confession."
After saying that, Ye Mo left.
Not long after Ye Mo left, Cao Yunting came back.
As soon as Cao Yunting returned home, he was shocked when he heard from the housekeeper that Mrs. Cao had killed Grandma Kong and had all of Grandma Kong's family killed.
Although my mother was strict in managing the Duke's mansion, she never killed any servants without reason. Even if the servants made mistakes, the most they could do was sell them out of the house.
What happened to my mother? She ordered the execution of so many people at once, including my father’s nanny’s family!
Cao Yunting quickly went to the main courtyard. Looking at the tired and haggard Mrs. Cao, all the questions in her heart were swallowed up, replaced by worries and concerns: "Mother, are you sick? My son will ask the imperial doctor to come over and treat you right away.
.”
Seeing the worry that was not fake at all on Cao Yunting's face, Mrs. Cao's eyes were filled with mist, and she reached out to hold Cao Yunting: "Yunting, mother" her voice was so choked that she could not speak.
When Cao Yunting saw her, he quickly hugged Mrs. Cao and patted her back: "Mother, my son is here. No matter what happens, my son will be with you."
Tears burst from Mrs. Cao's eyes: "I hate it so much"
Cao Yunting looked stunned. His mother said that she hates her so much. What does her mother hate so much?
Seeing Mrs. Cao's tears streaming down her face, Cao Yunting quickly knelt on the ground and stretched out his hand to test Mrs. Cao's tears.
There were more tears in Mrs. Cao's eyes. She held Cao Yunting's hand, her lips trembled, and she wanted to say something, but in the end she choked.
Cao Yunting was anxious: "Mother, don't scare your son. What happened? Tell me. Let's find a solution together. No matter what happens, we can solve it."
Mrs. Cao shook her head: "It can't be solved."
Cao Yunting: "No, even if my son can't solve it, he can still find other people for help. Mother, you have told your son since he was a child that nothing can't be solved. You said that."
Mrs. Cao closed her eyes and let go of Cao Yunting's hand: "Go down, I want to be quiet."
"Mother."
Cao Yunting was unwilling to leave, which showed that Mrs. Cao didn't want to talk to him, so she could only leave with full of doubts.
When she walked to the door, Mrs. Cao suddenly said: "Yunting, no matter what my mother does in the future, my mother hopes that you can live a good life."
Hearing these words that seemed like farewell, Cao Yunting became even more worried. He wanted to say something, but Madam Cao waved her hand to him: "You go down and prepare. In a few days, I will go to the palace with the money I raised to beg the emperor for his release."
Your father."
Cao Yunting looked happy. Although he felt that Mrs. Cao's words and deeds today were quite strange, he thought that Mrs. Cao's mood had been unstable these days, so he didn't think much about it and quickly went down to prepare to take Duke Ping back to his home.
Seeing Cao Yunting leave, Mrs. Cao shed tears again.
On the day of Laba Festival, Mrs. Cao followed Ye Mo's instructions and gave her a confession.
When the emperor was watching Mrs. Cao's confession, Wei Guogong and several other ministers of the court happened to be there.
"My beloved sirs, Mrs. Ping Guo has been asked to plead guilty. Do you think I should let Duke Ping go?"
After hearing this, Duke Wei Guo's expression immediately changed.
The Changle Marquis Mansion was copied by Wei Laogong, the father of Wei Guogong. After Ye Mo came to power, Wei Guogong had been uneasy, worried that Ye Mo would take the opportunity to take revenge.
Although the Wei family is now at its peak, with a queen mother in the harem, a queen sitting in charge, and a prince in the previous dynasty, Wei Guogong has never been arrogant.
There is no other way. The more powerful the Wei family becomes, the more they fall into the eyes of the emperor. The Wei family can only be careful and cautious.
Furthermore, the position of the prince is not stable. The eldest prince who is the eldest prince is suppressing him in front of him, and the fourth prince and other princes are looking at him. It is not an exaggeration to say that the prince is surrounded by wolves.
At this time, the Wei family must not cause trouble for the prince.
Therefore, Duke Wei was very afraid of Ye Mo, an unstable factor. Whenever he had a chance, he wanted to pull Ye Mo down. If he couldn't pull him down, he would work hard to make enemies for Ye Mo.
The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Duke Ping was arrested because of Ye Mo, and Ye Mo repeatedly blocked others from helping Duke Ping. As long as Duke Ping comes out safely, he will definitely cause trouble for Ye Mo.
Thinking of this, Wei Guogong came out: "Your Majesty, I think that since Mrs. Ping Guogong has made up for the money that was corrupted by Mo, the court should still give Ping Guogong a chance to atone for his sins."
The ministers who met today had one thing in common, that is, they were all dissatisfied with Ye Mo.
Seeing that Duke Wei Guo had expressed his stance, everyone followed suit and expressed that Duke Ping should be given a chance to change his ways.
Wei Guogong looked at the emperor's face, thought for a while and said: "Your Majesty, after all, Duke Ping has embezzled a large sum of money. If he was released so easily, he might make other officials follow suit. It is better to issue an order to the emperor in public at the morning of tomorrow morning."
Just let the Duke of Ichiban be taught a lesson."
The emperor looked at Wei Guogong and other officials with downcast eyes without comment, thought for a while and said: "Let Duke Ping and his wife go to court tomorrow to defend Duke Ping."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Having achieved his goal, Duke Wei's eyes flashed with joy, and then he bowed down respectfully and followed several other important ministers out of the Qianqing Palace.
On the ninth day of the twelfth lunar month, Cao Yunting sent Mrs. Cao to the gate of the palace, watched her enter the palace, and then waited at the gate of the palace, fully expecting that the morning ceremony would be over soon, and then he could take his parents home.
Unfortunately, he did not wait for a family reunion, but instead waited for his mother to sue his father for framing the Changle Marquis Mansion.
The fact that Marquis Changle colluded with the regent and was the leader of the Yan Party was extremely sensational in the Yan Party case, and everyone sighed every time it was mentioned.
Without him, Marquis Changle was a rare general with great talent. When he was guarding Liaodong, he repelled the Donghu army several times and made great contributions.
Now Ping Guo Gong's wife has openly testified that Changle Marquis was wronged by Ping Guo Gong, and the real leader of the Yan Party is Ping Guo Gong himself.
As soon as this accusation came out, it directly shocked all civil and military officials.
Even the emperor was extremely surprised. After all, Duke Ping could be said to be his.
"Ping Guo Gong and Yan Dang have never stopped contacting each other. Many of the silver coins he and the salt merchants colluded with to embezzle money were given to Yan Dang."
The dealings between Duke Ping and the salt merchants were made clear to the emperor.
In the emperor's heart, these silver taels were all his. Now that he was told that his silver taels were used by Duke Ping to support the Yan Party, one can imagine his anger.
All the officials were astonished, and so was Duke Ping, who was escorted to court.
But when he saw the burning hatred bursting out of his wife's eyes, Duke Ping closed his eyes in despair.
She got it!
Yes, Ye Mo knew about Luo Yuanlu and Yun Ting's exchange, how could he not tell Cao.
How could Ms. Cao not hate herself after knowing the truth?
Duke Ping opened his eyes and looked at Ye Mo.
Ye Mo
Why didn't he die in the northwest? Why did he come back alive?
Without him, Duke Ping's Mansion will always be safe and smooth!
Duke Ping knew that the emperor only wanted to use Ye Mo, and he knew that he might not be able to make it this time, so he opened his mouth to force Ye Mo to dismount in exchange for the lives of the rest of the Cao family.
But as soon as he opened his mouth, Mrs. Cao stood in front of him.
Looking at Mrs. Cao's red eyes, Duke Ping was speechless for a rare moment.
"It's your blood, how could you abuse my child like that?"
"My lord, have you ever felt the slightest bit guilty about me?"
Thinking of the two sons who had been exchanged, Duke Ping's eyes looked at Mrs. Cao, filled with guilt.
Seeing this, Mrs. Cao curled up her lips and leaned against the Duke, as if she wanted to hug him.
The officials in the previous court were a little embarrassed when they saw him.
One moment, Mrs. Cao was righteous enough to testify against Duke Ping for framing Changle Marquis, and the next moment she wanted to get close to Duke Ping. She was really blind.
"Hmm~"
There was a muffled groan, and the officials saw Duke Ping looking at Mrs. Cao in disbelief, with a painful and twisted look on his face.
"Escort!"
Shi Dinghao, who was standing next to the emperor and acting as a loudspeaker, was the first to notice something strange and quickly stopped in front of the emperor.
At this time, everyone saw a golden hairpin stuck in Duke Ping's chest.
Good guy, all the three-inch-long gold hairpins were not inserted into Duke Ping's chest.
Duke Pingguo looked at Mrs. Cao blankly: "You hate me so much?"
With a smile on her lips, Mrs. Cao leaned into Duke Ping's ear and whispered: "I have to protect my child. When he was just born, it was my fault as a mother. He was exchanged, and I was afraid."
have no idea."
"As long as you die and Duke Ping's palace falls, my children will be safe."
"you"
Blood continued to seep out, and Duke Ping could clearly feel his life slipping away bit by bit.
Mrs. Cao looked at him with tears in her eyes: "You make me live like a joke. I have raised a son for my love rival for more than 20 years, and in the end I have to find a way to keep him alive."
"My lord, I feel so hateful!"
"Don't you value your family the most? If you destroy me and my children, then I will let the entire Duke of Ping go to hell with me."
Duke Ping Guo looked at Mrs. Cao with a destructive look in her eyes, her eyes gradually dimmed, and her body fell to the ground with a 'bang'.
"Ms. Cao, you are so brave, how dare you commit murder in front of the palace!"
As soon as the imperial guards rushed over, they saw Mrs. Cao pounce on Duke Ping, pull out the hairpin from his chest, stab her own chest quickly and hard, and then fall into a pool of blood with a smile.
This scene stunned everyone present.
Mr. Zhao quickly stepped forward, squatted down and touched the breath of Duke Ping and Mrs. Cao: "Reporting to the emperor, both Duke Ping and his wife died."
Jin Jiushang was smeared with poison by Mrs. Cao. Looking at the dark lips of Ping Guogong and his wife, the officials all felt numb and stepped back a little.
The emperor's face was gloomy.
At this time, Ye Mo, who had been watching his nose and heart, suddenly stood up, knelt down and kowtowed: "Please, Your Majesty, redress the injustice of the Changle Marquis Mansion."
The emperor looked at Ye Mo with a faint look in his eyes.
Very good, Ye Mo, this dog actually dared to bite his owner!
He didn't believe that Ye Mo couldn't see that he didn't want to kill Duke Ping, but Ye Mo still disobeyed him, and in a way that he had to agree to!
At this moment, all the officials felt the emperor's anger and bowed their heads in silence.
Looking at Duke Ping and his wife who fell to the ground dead, the emperor was silent for a moment: "Put everyone in Duke Ping's house into prison and listen to their verdict."
"As for the matter of Duke Ping Guo framed the Changle Hou Mansion, it will be handed over to Dali Temple and the Ministry of Punishment for trial together." After saying this, he threw up his sleeves and left the court.
After going to court, Shi Dinghao had nothing to do. Normally, he would definitely stay in the palace for a while, but today, he went home quickly.
After Shi Dinghao's family members listened to Shi Dinghao vividly describe the scene that happened in the court, they were all shocked.
After hearing this, Shi Fuxin couldn't help but frown.
"Sister, Master Ye really annoyed the emperor this time. You didn't see how ugly the emperor's face was."
While the Shi family members were discussing in the house, Shi Dinghao and Shi Fuxin slipped out and walked side by side in the yard.
Shi Fuxin: "I still remember the strong desire to survive that Master Ye showed in the Northwest Guards. He lived a difficult life and did not hesitate to become the emperor's executioner. He had only one purpose, and that was to clear the grievances of the Changle Marquis Mansion."
Shi Dinghao's face was full of worry: "Although the Special Inspection Division is powerful, all this was given by the emperor. If the emperor wants to take it back, Master Ye cannot resist."
"Master Ye has killed so many people before. Once he loses the emperor's heart, I don't know how many people will have to deal with him."
Shi Fuxin looked at her younger brother: "The Changle Marquis Mansion has cleared away its grievances, and Master Ye can be regarded as a man of mercy. Everyone has his own way to go, and we have no right to interfere. You must not show any differences when you are on duty in the palace."
color."
Shi Dinghao nodded: "I know."
Having been in charge of the Special Investigation Department for many years, Ye Mo held in his hands the tainted evidence of all the important officials in the court. The Dali Temple and the Ministry of Punishment jointly tried the case of the Changle Marquis' unjust case. The person in charge did not dare to interfere with it, so a conclusion was quickly reached.
The folder was delivered to the emperor. The emperor snorted coldly. Thinking of the dirty things Ye Mo had helped deal with, he hesitated for a moment and went to court the next day to re-examine the Changlehou Mansion case and return the case to Changlehou.
The government is fair.
After Shi Dinghao returned home from a mission, he quickly told Shi Fuxin about the emperor's arrangement: "Sister, this morning, the emperor made Ye Mo the Marquis of Changle, gave him a mansion, and also personally wrote the title of Marquis of Changle.
plaque."
"but."
"The Emperor said that since the Marquis of Changle is a lord, it will not be easy for him to be in charge of the Teca Division. The Teca Division is now under the control of Concubine Liu's eldest brother, Mr. Liu Houye."
