After Song Heng came down from court, he rode to the camp. He was suspended from his post, and he still had to explain some things.
When they arrived at the camp, General Song Heng called all the generals above the rank of captain to his barracks, and naturally Wen Xu, the deputy general, was also there.
When Wen Xu entered the barracks and saw Song Heng's serious expression, he knew that he had been impeached today.
"General."
A group of people bowed their hands and saluted Song Heng.
Song Heng glanced at the people standing in front of him and said to them: "I was demoted by the emperor today. I am no longer the general of Zhenguo, but the general of Zhenbei."
"Why?"
Captain Zhang Yuan asked in surprise.
General, the general who governs the country, has done a good job. Why did the emperor demote the position of general?
Song Heng replied truthfully: "You should all have heard the reason. There is no other reason than that."
He heard someone in the army talking about it yesterday, and his generals must have heard about it too.
Zhang Yuan looked at the others and saw that they all seemed to know everything. He suddenly felt that he was no longer the same person as them.
"The Emperor also suspended me from duty for three months to reflect on my mistakes. I cannot come to the army during these three months. You can just practice according to the regulations as usual.
Also, you must restrain the generals and officers of the army. If anything happens, you can discuss it and deal with it.
If you encounter something big that you can't make a decision, you can go to the General's Mansion to find me."
Song Heng explained.
"yes."
Wenxu and the others surrendered their orders.
Wen Xu lowered his head and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth. As expected, Song Heng was not only demoted, but also suspended by the emperor.
He said silently in his heart: Miss, have you read the truth?
Song Heng was demoted, and his subordinates avenged you.
Although Song Heng was demoted, this was just the beginning.
He wants to ruin the reputation of the Song family and let the world know how hypocritical they are.
After Song Heng finished explaining, he took Zhang San and rode back to the general's mansion.
By the afternoon, the news that Song Heng was demoted and suspended by the emperor for harboring the murderer's daughter spread throughout the imperial city.
The Yamen also released news that in two days, a public trial of Song Ziyu's murder case would be held.
For a time, people in the entire imperial city were talking about whether Song Ziyu would kill someone to pay for his death, or whether he would be acquitted because of his family background.
There are casinos and even gambling games are started, and the bet is whether Song Ziyu will be acquitted.
There were many people participating in this bet, but most of them were betting that Song Ziyu would not be acquitted.
After all, this matter has become such a big deal, and even General Song was demoted for protecting his daughter. Naturally, the government will try this case impartially and will not dare to show favoritism.
The people who opened the gambling bureau became anxious when they saw that everyone was betting that Song Ziyu would not be acquitted. They all bet on her not being acquitted. They were still making a lot of money! So, the people who opened the gambling bureau secretly asked people to
The news was released, saying that based on reliable information, the government, under pressure from the Zhenbei General's Office, would eventually acquit Song Ziyu.
He also said that Shen Wan, the wife of General Zhenbei, still had a chance to make a condition to the emperor. Even if the evidence of Song Ziyu's murder was conclusive, Shen Wan would ask the emperor to absolve Song Ziyu of his crime.
As soon as this false news spread, the imperial city exploded, and the ordinary people and the scholars who hated evil were very angry.
If Song Ziyu is acquitted, wouldn't it prove that this law is ineffective against the powerful, but was established for ordinary people like them?
Who can bear this! Some scholars even wrote an article directly criticizing Song Heng and posted the article on the bulletin board in the city.
Many people who believed Zhou Wang's words began to sympathize with Zhou Yulai and felt unfair for him.
It is said that Zhou Yu was wrongly accused, but Song Ziyu was not set up at all. She was the one who first seduced the honest Zhou Juren.
It is said that Shen Wan and Song Heng wronged the upright and loyal Zhou Juren in order to preserve their daughter's reputation.
Song Ziyu was afraid that the scandalous things he had done would be exposed by Zhou Juren, so he ruthlessly killed Zhou Juren.
For a time, the shameless scoundrel Zhou Yu became the most innocent person in the eyes of the people, a pitiful person who was persecuted by the powerful.
However, General Song, who was upright, loyal, brave, wise and martial, and Mrs. Song, who was wise and kind-hearted, became hypocritical people who bullied others.
