Transmigrated into a short-lived widow? Cold-faced uncle fights for my life
Chapter 133 Cancellation of Engagement
Before doing all this, Wei Jing had already met with the emperor and informed him of everything that was happening in Nanjing.
He knew that the emperor valued him, and no matter what, this matter had to be made known to his superiors.
Otherwise, if you act rashly, you will not only earn fear, but will most likely fail.
Fortunately, the emperor trusted him and gave him enough support.
So today, we are catching a turtle in a jar!
I talked so much with Wei Zhi, also for the generals waiting outside to hear. What kind of horrifying things could he say?
Not surprisingly, Wei Zhi was caught.
No matter how powerful he is, he cannot be a match for a group of people, not to mention that he can't even beat Wei Jing now.
After confirming that everything Wei Jing said was true, the emperor was furious and ordered him to be thrown into death row and not released!
After finding out which officials used the tula incense, he would be executed by slow slicing.
After being severely tortured, the spice merchant who had been captured earlier could no longer endure it and finally told the truth, writing down the names of the officials in the capital who had purchased tulsi incense from him.
There were some that he hadn't written down, and he couldn't remember them.
However, through investigation of clues, the list was quickly completed.
For a moment, everyone was in a state of panic and almost scared to death. However, because they had no more incense, they couldn't even speak clearly and wanted to die.
The officials who smoked the tora incense were found, but how to deal with them became a very troublesome problem.
Some people like Li Zhong, who betrayed the country for their own selfish desires, naturally cannot be kept.
There are also some who have become addicted to the use of tora incense by mistake. Now that they can't buy it, they would rather die than surrender. When faced with the spies from the Northern Border, they would never betray them no matter what.
Are they also going to be beaten to death with a stick?
The imperial doctors were at a loss after making various diagnoses, and had no idea how to deal with such a difficult disease.
Seeing that the emperor was frowning, a beautiful figure emerged in Wei Jing's mind, and he looked up at the emperor.
After hesitating for a long time, he said slowly: "I may have a way!"
……
Because of his involvement with Wei Zhi, Zhou was also thrown into death row, awaiting his fate.
As for Lu Yun and Wei Heng, after learning that Wei Zhi was arrested and their identities were exposed, they took away all of Zhou's money overnight and fled for their lives.
Unexpectedly, after hiding and fleeing Kyoto, they would encounter refugees and have all their money and property robbed.
For both mother and son, their dream was all in vain.
I originally wanted to live a life of wealth and glory, but in the end I got nothing.
……
When Wei Jing saw Jiang Mingwei again, she was still preparing various medicinal herbs in the ear room.
The small room was filled with the aroma of medicine.
Wei Jing stood at the door, looking at her busy figure, his heart softened.
When she looked up and saw Wei Jing, she was slightly startled and didn't have time to speak.
Then he saw Wei Jing take a step forward and apologize to him in a low voice.
"I'm sorry, sister-in-law. It was all my fault. I misunderstood. That man... was indeed Wei Zhi. He has been caught. He is just waiting to uproot all the people related to Tuoluoxiang. He will be sent to the execution ground and be tortured to death."
Jiang Mingwei was stunned and nodded lightly. This was something she expected.
Wei Zhi has done so many heinous things that if he is not killed, it will not be enough to quell the public anger.
"That's good. At least we have to give an explanation to those girls who died tragically and the people who were harmed by them."
"Sister-in-law, do you still blame me?"
Jiang Mingwei paused for a moment, unable to tell what she was feeling at the moment.
Just as I was lost in thought, someone suddenly grabbed my wrist tightly.
She looked up in surprise and met a pair of eyes as dark as ink. Her heart instantly started beating wildly. When she tried desperately to pull her hand back, she saw a flash of loneliness in his eyes...
"Sorry, I was abrupt."
"It doesn't matter."
Jiang Mingwei shook her head and suddenly felt something in her hand.
I looked down and saw a bright yellow letter.
Naturally, this color can only be used by those in power.
Jiang Mingwei looked surprised and looked up at Wei Jing in confusion, then opened the letter and read the contents from top to bottom.
Her eyes were filled with joy, "Is everything in this letter true?"
"Of course, His Majesty's words will not change."
"Okay, leave it to me!"
Jiang Mingwei patted her chest with a smile, and immediately worked harder to prepare the medicine.
Now, except for Wei Jing, everyone in the Wei family has been arrested or escaped, but she is still here.
If for no other reason, even though Wei Zhi was now labeled a traitor, she was still Wei Zhi's legally married wife. She did not dare to go back to the Jiang family, for fear of bringing danger to her pregnant sister-in-law.
At least as long as she stays with Wei Jing, no one will dare to do anything to her.
This letter from His Majesty is extremely concise and to the point.
The letter said that as long as she could concoct an antidote to the poison, or alleviate the symptoms of these officials so that they could quit smoking on their own through willpower, her engagement with Wei Zhi would be completely annulled.
Isn't this equivalent to annulling the marriage? !
Jiang Mingwei couldn't ask for more!
Coincidentally, she happened to be researching the antidote for the Tora incense these days.
In addition to the dignitaries in the capital, there are actually quite a few ordinary people who have accidentally inhaled this spice and are suffering.
If she could find the match, it would be a great merit.
So this letter comes at the right time!
Seeing her working hard, Wei Jing raised the corners of his mouth, smiled lightly, and asked in a low voice.
"After my sister-in-law has prepared the antidote and His Majesty has fulfilled his promise, I wonder what my sister-in-law wants to do?"
Jiang Mingwei paused slightly, not understanding why Wei Jing asked this, but still answered subconsciously.
"I don't know either. Maybe he will travel around and look for true freedom. It's really boring to be trapped here all day long!"
There was something moving in Wei Jing's eyes, as if he was thinking about something.
Finally, before an official was about to die in agony, Jiang Mingwei made the antidote.
It can relieve their symptoms. After drinking it for three days, the effect of the Tora incense on their bodies will disappear, but it will be followed by a month-long period of fatigue.
But after that, they will slowly recover.
The influence of the incense on them will no longer exist...
His Majesty watched over them and fed them for three days.
Sure enough, on the fourth day, the previous crazy behaviors disappeared, and were replaced by fatigue, but he seemed to have regained his sanity.
He was very pleased and fulfilled his promise on the spot.
Looking at the record about herself in the document, Jiang Mingwei felt grateful and immediately expressed her gratitude.
From now on, she is finally free!
When she returned to the general's mansion, she met Jiang Mingjin at the gate as expected.
