After rebirth, the daughter of the marquisate went crazy
Chapter 178 Suing Qingyuan Hou
Lu Chengliang struggled to get up and knelt upright.
Ye Qingyu was still kneeling not far away. Although she did not look back at Lu Chengliang's condition, she smelled a strong smell of blood.
Even though this was something the two of them had already discussed, and Lu Chengliang was determined to file a complaint with the emperor, which was a situation she should have anticipated, she still couldn't help but clenched the handkerchief in her hand, and her face turned pale.
It took Lu Chengliang a long time to get up. He clenched his teeth to prevent his pain from leaking out. He used up all his strength and kowtowed three times. The sound was so loud that it echoed in the Golden Palace.
"I, Lu Chengliang of Dengzhou, would like to sue Ye Wencheng, the Marquis of Qingyuan, for colluding with the Chen family to bribe bandits and murder my family of eighteen. I beg Your Majesty to help me!"
As Lu Chengliang finished speaking, Emperor Jingyou's gaze, as well as the gazes of everyone in the Golden Throne Hall, fell on the figure kneeling upright.
"Marquis Qingyuan? Do you have any evidence?"
"I have evidence!"
With trembling hands, Lu Chengliang pulled out a sheepskin-wrapped object from his chest. The sheepskin was already stained with blood. He tremblingly opened it, revealing a stack of bamboo paper with handwriting on it. "This, this is the murderer's confession. Chen and those bandits were all captured by us and brought to Kyoto."
"Your Majesty, can you please send someone to where I am staying and bring me back for questioning?"
"Every word I say is true. Not a single word is false. If even one word is false, I will be struck by lightning and die a miserable death!"
After Lu Chengliang said these few words, he was exhausted and his face was covered in cold sweat, showing pain and sorrow.
Eunuch Dequan repeatedly examined the evidence in Lu Chengliang's hands and presented it to Emperor Jingyou.
Emperor Jingyou flipped through the bloody bamboo paper, his brows furrowed tighter and tighter.
"Asshole! How dare the Marquis of Qingyuan!"
"Come here, bring the Marquis of Qingyuan to me!"
"Is the Minister of Justice here?"
"The minister is here."
Emperor Jingyou handed the stack of evidence to Dequan, "My dear minister, please take a look."
He looked at Lu Chengliang again, his eyes full of pity. "Why do you have to suffer this? Your evidence is complete. If you hand it over to the Jingzhao government office, they will definitely give you justice. Why risk half your life to file a complaint with the emperor?"
With Ye Qingyu's guidance, Lu Chengliang knew that the current emperor was a kind person and he had nothing to be afraid of.
His face was as white as paper, and his eyes were filled with complete trust and respect for His Majesty. "I, the common people, only trust Your Majesty! You are the heaven of us people, and you will definitely make the decision for me!"
"I've walked all the way from Qinzhou to here, and have gone to every place I could to file a complaint. But when they heard I was going to sue the noble Marquis, they refused to even accept my complaint! I, you know, have no other choice but to come to the capital to file a complaint!"
"I beg Your Majesty to punish Marquis Qingyuan and let my family rest in peace!"
He seemed to feel no pain and kept banging his head. Even though his forehead was already broken, he still didn't stop.
Emperor Jingyou couldn't stand this and asked someone to hold Lu Chengliang back. "Don't worry, I will definitely make the decision for you!"
At this time, the Jinyiwei who went to the Qingyuan Marquis's mansion brought Qingyuan Marquis here.
"Your Majesty, the Marquis of Qingyuan has been brought here."
Lord Ye had no idea what was happening and was caught by the Embroidered Uniform Guards and thrown onto a horse. He was dizzy from being shaken around and was thrown onto the throne room without any mercy by the Embroidered Uniform Guards.
"Marquis Qingyuan, someone has accused you of hiring someone to murder 18 members of his family. Do you admit it?"
Lord Ye had never been to the throne room in his life. It was his dream to attend court there. Unexpectedly, the first time he entered the throne room, he was actually being sued by the emperor!
He saw the high and mighty Emperor Jingyou, and not far away beside him stood Lu Chengliang, covered in blood.
It's over, he's done!
When he first saw Lu Chengliang, he was afraid that what he and Chen Yinyin had done would be known by Lu Chengliang.
After Chen Yinyin was taken away by Lu Chengliang, he sent people to find his whereabouts and hired a killer to kill Chen Yinyin who knew the truth.
As long as Chen Yinyin died, he could rest easy and put the blame of the Lu family's deaths on Chen Yinyin.
The assassin he sent out succeeded in his mission, but Lu Chengliang actually came to file a complaint?
Could it be that Chen Yinyin told him the truth before she died?
How could this happen! He was still too late!
Lord Ye was trembling with fear. "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please do not listen to the slander of this villain. I don't even know him!"
His brain was no longer able to think because of fear. He really didn't know what to do except to refute and deny it.
Lu Chengliang sneered, and the blood-stained face stared at him with eyes full of hatred, as if it was an evil ghost from hell demanding his life.
Lord Ye was so frightened that he quickly lowered his head to the ground, his body shaking uncontrollably, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, it's not me, I can't bear it, it's him, he framed me, it's not me, it's not me!"
The Minister of Justice was a man who hated evil. He angrily threw the evidence in his hand at Lord Ye and said, "The evidence is irrefutable, and you still dare to deny it!"
"Marquis Qingyuan, you are so careless about human life that even the lid of your ancestors' coffins cannot hold it down. Having an unfilial descendant like you really tarnishes the good name of Marquis Qingyuan."
"The Qingyuan Marquisate also originated from military merit. The Qingyuan Marquis was a hero who fought to protect the people. You have the protection of your ancestors, yet you treat the defenseless people like this! You treat the people your ancestors protected like this!"
Marquis Qingyuan didn't even dare to look at the evidence. He knew that he was really doomed this time.
"It wasn't me! It was Chen Yinyin. Chen Yinyin did everything. I only found out about it later. It has nothing to do with me!"
He looked at Lu Chengliang pleadingly, "Brother Lu, it wasn't me. You have to believe me. It was Chen Yinyin who heard that my wife had passed away. In order to marry me, she cruelly designed for your entire family to be killed by bandits. I, I gave her money without knowing it. I, I was wronged!"
Before Lu Chengliang could say anything, a sharp and shrill scream echoed throughout the Golden Palace.
"Ye Wencheng! You beast! It was obviously you who asked me to bribe the bandits to kill the entire Lu family. Now, you are putting all the blame on me!"
Lord Ye recognized Chen Yinyin's voice without turning around.
He looked at Chen Yinyin as if he had seen a ghost.
She, isn’t she dead? Why does she still appear!
