Marrying a Wife and Concubine Together: After Rebirth, I Remarried the Scumbag's Father on the
Chapter 331: Crying Out for Justice
Looking at his daughter, the Marquis of Huaiyang was heartbroken. "Your mother is confused, are you confused too? What is the situation of the Marquis of Huaiyang now? If I don't tell you, can't you see it?"
Du Bingyan naturally saw it. She knew that her uncle Ye Tianqing had come to Beijing and was planning something big with her father.
Seeing how my father looks now, I guess that big thing must have failed.
In order to save their lives, he cruelly wrote the divorce letter.
After figuring this out, she turned to look at Madam Du Hou: "Mother, let's go!"
Madam Du reached out and grabbed her sleeve: "Yan'er, where are we going? The Huaiyang Marquis Mansion is our home!"
Du Bingyan said, "No, it's not like that anymore. Father has already written you a letter of divorce. Naturally, we have to go back to grandma's house!"
Mrs. Du Hou suddenly became paranoid: "If you want to leave, go ahead. I haven't done anything wrong. Why do you want to divorce me? I don't agree!"
"Pa!" Du Bingyan raised her hand and slapped her in the face.
She gritted her teeth and reminded: "Mother, if you don't leave now, I'm afraid you really won't be able to leave!"
Mrs. Du looked at her blankly, her eyes full of tears.
Du Bingyan held her with one hand and grabbed Du Youzhi who was running over with the other hand, and walked quickly outside.
Du Youzhi was still young, still an innocent young man. He couldn't help but look up and ask, "Sister, has something happened in our family? Why do we have to go back to my grandfather's house?"
Du Bingyan replied: "Yes, from now on, my sister and I are no longer members of the Du family, but are members of the Huo family like our mother!"
Mrs. Du Hou shuddered all over, and finally she reacted belatedly.
She turned around suddenly, her face full of worry and fear.
She asked in a trembling voice: "Bingyan, your father, is your father going to die?"
Du Bingyan shook her head: "I don't know, but at least we can live to avenge him!"
As the words fell, the hatred in her eyes flashed away.
As soon as the three of them left the Huaiyang Marquis's Mansion, Li Youde led his troops to seal the mansion and invited the Huaiyang Marquis into the imperial study in the palace.
He knelt on the ground nervously and said, "Your humble servant greets the emperor!"
Emperor Sheng An nodded and said, "Marquis Huaiyang, you should know why I invited you to the Imperial Study in the Palace, right?"
The tone sounded very casual, but it made Huaiyang Hou's scalp tingle and his whole body tense.
He trembled and stammered, "I am stupid and don't understand!"
Emperor Sheng An laughed suddenly, "Marquis of Huaiyang, I remember that the Du family was able to obtain the title of Marquis because of the military merits of the old Marquis on the battlefield. He was also a hero who protected the border back then!"
The Marquis of Huaiyang spoke with shame: "I have benefited from my father's influence, but have achieved nothing. I am truly ashamed of the emperor and my father!"
Emperor Sheng An interrupted without hesitation: "No, you have made great achievements. Your father's achievements in leading 300 soldiers to break through Yannan Pass are not as great as your ability as the Marquis of Huaiyang to raise 300 death squads!"
The Marquis of Huaiyang raised his head in shock and said, "Your Majesty, I am innocent. I have not kept any assassins in captivity. Please investigate!"
Emperor Sheng An raised an eyebrow in surprise. "No? But those assassins clearly said they were ordered by you. Zhan Yan was attacked outside the capital, and later Li Youde led the Imperial Guards to support them and captured them all alive. Now that they have been interrogated, they say they were following your orders!"
The Marquis of Huaiyang burst into tears and wailed, "Your Majesty, there's no shortage of excuses for accusing me. It must be Zhan Yan who slandered me. Others don't know what kind of person I am, but don't you, Your Majesty?"
Emperor Sheng An stood up from his chair, slowly walked around to him and said, "It is precisely because I know your character that I immediately denied Zhan Yan's statement!"
The Marquis of Huaiyang finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Your Majesty is wise!"
Emperor Sheng An spoke again: "Since these assassins were not raised by you, yet they were using sharp blades from the armory, could it be that they were raised by Ye Tianqing?"
Marquis Huaiyang was immediately startled and broke out in a cold sweat. He subconsciously denied it, "It wasn't him, Your Majesty. He is loyal to you and the royal family. How could he have raised assassins to assassinate Marquis Zhan Yi?"
Emperor Sheng An sighed helplessly, "You've all confused me. If it wasn't him, and it wasn't you, then why would those assassins confess that they were ordered by you? This makes it very difficult for me!"
Marquis Huaiyang gritted his teeth and said, "It must be Zhan Yan's slander. He raised all those assassins. He staged the assassination of the emperor himself, and then tried his best to save you in order to gain your trust!"
Emperor Sheng An looked at him sarcastically: "Marquis Huaiyang, from the beginning to the end, I never said that they were assassinating me!"
Marquis Huaiyang reacted belatedly and was so angry that he almost bit off his tongue.
He knelt and crawled to the feet of Emperor Sheng An and said, "I made a slip of the tongue for a moment, Your Majesty, please forgive me. Anyway, I and Ye Tianqing have nothing to do with those assassins. I don't know who raised them!"
Emperor Sheng An lowered his eyes and chuckled, "Do you know that I should invite your steward up here?"
Marquis Huaiyang was stunned and watched as the butler Fu Zhong, with blood all over his face, was dragged up by Li Youde.
He knelt on the ground and said, "I, the servant, have been ordered by the Marquis of Huaiyang to send five hundred taels of silver every month to the Du family's farm outside the capital to support those three hundred assassins!"
The Marquis of Huaiyang roared angrily, "You little slave! You're talking nonsense! How dare you slander me? Do you believe I'll kill your entire family right now?"
Emperor Sheng An interrupted sharply, "Marquis Huaiyang, do you think you can even step out of this imperial study? How can I arrest you if I don't have solid evidence?"
Marquis Huaiyang knelt on the ground, his face full of fear.
Emperor Sheng An waved his hand and asked Li Youde to drag Fu Zhong away.
He slowed down his tone and said, "How did you think I could trace it back to you so quickly? They immediately admitted that it was you who ordered it!"
The Marquis of Huaiyang shook his head vigorously: "Impossible, they are death squads, how could they confess so easily?"
Emperor Sheng An spoke in a complicated tone, "I find this strange too, so I came to ask you, are these people raised by you? Or are you raising them for someone else?"
Marquis Huaiyang suddenly realized that Ye Tianqing must have tricked him.
This means he will have to take the blame alone!
He wondered why those people confessed so readily, it turned out they wanted to make him a scapegoat.
Why?
Intense anger clouded his mind. He clenched his fists and said, "Your Majesty, I am indeed wronged. Those assassins were raised by Ye Tianqing at the Du Family Manor. I was not aware of this!"
Emperor Sheng An continued to guide him: "So Fu Zhong is also his man?"
The Marquis of Huaiyang nodded heavily. "Yes, he came to me every month to ask for money. Due to our relationship, I lent him some. As for what he did with it, I really don't know!"
