Forcing me to raise a concubine? The mistress of the Marquisate has gone mad
Chapter 131 Falling out!
The case of cheating in the Spring Examination had a huge impact.
Wen Zhi's identity was even more sensitive. As the chief examiner, he broke the law knowingly. For all the students taking the exam, this was absolutely intolerable!
At one time, there were countless people denouncing him.
There were even some who were so emotional that they waited outside the prison gate, waiting to be the first to throw rotten eggs at the prisoner when they heard he was being pushed out for execution, to vent their hatred!
"Master Wen, put your handprint here and everything will be over."
The chief eunuch beside the emperor came to the prison in person, brought a confession letter that he had prepared long ago, and placed it in front of Wen Zhi.
"Don't worry, your wife and children will be taken care of. Sir Wen, you can leave without any worries."
Upon hearing this and looking at the confession in front of him, the emperor was generous and pushed all the sins onto him, one by one, each one was enough to make the people of the world despise him!
"I am innocent."
"What did you say?" The eunuch was stunned. "Master Wen, do you know what you are saying?"
His eyes immediately became sharp, revealing murderous intent. At the end of the day, Master Wen would not want to regret it, right?
He turned a blind eye to the eunuch's behavior. Even when the eunuch's eyes were pierced, he still said, "I didn't commit the crime listed above. How can I admit it?"
He was simply going along with the crowd and did not stand up to stop the emperor when he ordered people to change the list of successful candidates in the Spring Examination - if the king wants his subject to die, the subject must die!
Therefore, under the emperor's threat, he could not resist at all.
If this incident is to be used to convict him of dereliction of duty, then the first thing to be investigated is the emperor's leading role in fraud!
He dares to admit it!
Your Majesty, do you dare?!
"I am only following orders. If I am guilty, then the person who issued the order to me should be punished severely!"
"How dare you!" The chief eunuch was anxious, and his already sharp voice became even more piercing: "Master Wen, do you want to die?"
He quickly dismissed the irrelevant people and lowered his voice to Wen Zhidao: "What should be said and what should not be said, Master Wen, don't you know it in your heart?"
How dare he say that the emperor is guilty in front of others?
The eunuch's eyes flashed with gloom, and he reminded: "Think about your wife who just got pregnant..."
His heart tightened when he heard this. Although he knew his wife had been hidden in a safe place, he still couldn't help but worry about her.
In the end, she was still implicated.
But the next second, Wen Zhi's heart became firm again. Because of this, he was even more determined to get out!
He was worried about leaving his wife to anyone. And how could he bear to leave his unborn child, for whom he had already thought of a name and had never even seen him? !
"Sir, you don't have to threaten me with my wife. Justice is in the hearts of the people. If anything happens to my wife, I will not live in humiliation!"
The eunuch was frightened when he heard the cruelty on his face!
He had seen countless people and could see the determination to die in Wen Zhi's heart - he really could do what he said!
Wen Zhi bowed and said, "Please tell that noble man that I will never admit to anything I haven't done, even if it costs my life!"
"presumptuous!"
"How dare you, a mere Hanlin, threaten me?"
"Exterminate all his nine clans, exterminate all his nine clans for me!"
The emperor threw all the memorials on the table to the ground and was so angry that he even broke several cups!
The eunuch lowered his head and dared not speak. He could only silently let someone pick up the fragments on the ground to prevent him from being accidentally hurt when the emperor got excited.
But the emperor was obviously not satisfied with his silence, "Tell him, if he disagrees, I will exterminate all his nine clans!"
"Your Majesty..." The chief eunuch spoke with his back wet with sweat.
"Master Wen's nine clans are no longer here."
Wen Zhi's father was accused of corruption and his entire family was exterminated.
He was the old steward of the mansion. He saved the child by replacing him with his own son and risking the lives of his entire family.
These painful experiences have always supported Wen Zhi's determination to redress his father's injustice.
How could he still have nine clans to rob?
The emperor stopped what he was doing. He didn't expect that he had no other relatives who could be implicated.
"Then his wife..." The emperor's voice was chilling.
The eunuch couldn't help but get goose bumps all over his body and lowered his head even more.
"Your Majesty, Lord Wen's wife is missing!"
The emperor turned around suddenly, "What did you say? Gone? What do you mean gone?"
The main reason why he was able to control Wen Zhi was because of his wife who was just pregnant.
Even if the couple does not have a deep relationship, Wen Zhi will admit defeat for the sake of the child and the future of the Wen family.
Now, Mrs. Wen is missing?
The emperor sneered, "So that's how it is. No wonder he had the guts to challenge me. I'm afraid he has already sent someone to rescue his wife!"
If he was still a little puzzled just now, now the emperor was certain in his heart that it was definitely Wen Zhi who did this to Madam Wen!
These people are all afraid of death and will grab the opportunity as soon as it comes!
Now that his wife has been rescued, he naturally has no weaknesses anymore and is bold enough to challenge me.
"Cao An, since Lord Wen is so uncooperative, then let him not cooperate."
The emperor's eyes were filled with murderous intent. Hearing that since he didn't want to plead guilty, he would not give him a chance to plead guilty.
The dead are the most obedient.
"Your Majesty, something bad has happened! There's a commotion outside!"
"What's the commotion? You're so flustered that you can't even speak clearly!"
The person who came to report the news was Cao An's godson. The emperor was angry at the time and did not dare to go up and bring bad luck upon himself.
Cao An first scolded his stupid son so that when he got to the emperor, he would be able to show less disdain.
Fortunately, this godson was also perceptive. He swallowed hard and said quickly, "Your Majesty, there is news from outside that the students in the Spring Examination are very angry and are determined to confront Lord Wen and seek justice!"
It is said that before he became a Hanlin, he had extraordinary knowledge and was a role model for scholars.
After becoming a Hanlin, he was even more respected for his fairness in official duties.
How much they loved him in the beginning, how much they hate him now, so even if they hear that he confessed, they will not give up. They must hear him admit his crimes in person and give an explanation to the vast number of students!
"You mean, they're clamoring to see Wenzhi?"
The young eunuch did not dare to look up, and said tremblingly, "Your Majesty, those people are very excited. They said that if Master Wen dares to die to apologize, they will also examine the body and confirm that he committed suicide before they will stop!"
"Ridiculous! Do these unruly people really think the imperial court is just a decoration?!"
The emperor was so angry that his heart ached. Why was it that every time he wanted to do something, something else would appear to block him?
He just wanted to hear the news and confess his guilt, is that so difficult? !
