Chapter 1,106 It Was the Emperor Who Gave Him a Chance
The emperor's face became very ugly in an instant, so when he shed blood to recognize his relatives, the second child tampered with him? ?
"Cough, cough, cough." The emperor was out of breath and coughed violently again.
Xi Ping hurriedly helped him sit back down. The emperor closed his eyes, raised his head and calmed down for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Go on."
His voice became darker again, and Meng Yuncheng lowered his head slightly to block the light in his eyes.
The fifth prince had sent him news yesterday, saying that the emperor and the second prince had a bloody acquaintance, so the emperor might be lenient towards the second prince.
Meng Yuncheng did say those words just now on purpose.
He responded in a low voice, "After confessing my blood, Gongqiu took me back to the capital. I was ten years old that year, and I had just experienced the pain of losing my mother, and my father's whereabouts were unknown. I was in a state of confusion. Especially me. My mother said that I was my father's son, but Gongqiu recognized me through blood. For a moment, I didn't know what to do. Fortunately, my father was still alive, and he was saved by a doctor with excellent medical skills. Yes, he found me secretly. It was also the doctor who told me that it is not accurate to recognize relatives by shedding blood. "
"Father wants to take me away. He hates Gongqiu, but he wants me to grow up safely. I don't want to. I know that after my father wants to settle me down, he can seek revenge on Gongqiu alone. But I don't want to hide in hiding all my life. , and I don’t want my father to die. Gongqiu is also my mother-killing enemy, and I have the obligation to avenge her."
The emperor nodded slowly, "So you have stayed with Gong Qiu for more than ten years? You are very patient."
He couldn't help but take another look at the handsome man in front of him. It was so rare that even he had to admire such kind of character and patience.
However, Meng Yuncheng smiled bitterly, "But what's the use of being patient? It's because I have no ability, so I spent more than ten years without being able to catch Gong Qiu, and I couldn't find any evidence that he harmed others. If I had I could have brought him to justice long ago.”
"But now that you appear in front of me, that means you have found evidence?"
Meng Yuncheng raised his head and said, "Yes, probably because of God's mercy, a lot of things happened to the Gong family during this period. Mrs. Gong fell ill, Gong Chang was killed, Gong Ya was put in prison, and the whole Gong family was in chaos. Especially these two days. , Gongqiu never came back, so that there were fewer guards in Gongqiu's study, which exposed a flaw. Seeing that this opportunity was rare, I really didn't want to miss it, so I sneaked into Gongqiu's study, found the secret room, and got the Evidence of his guilt.”
The emperor's eyes lit up slightly, "Evidence of guilt?"
Gong Qiu has not been at home for the past two days because he was imprisoned in the palace.
So, he gave this kid a chance?
Emperor, "Send it up."
Xi Ping hurried forward, and Meng Yuncheng took out two notebooks from his arms and placed them in Xi Ping's hands.
The emperor flipped through the book and sat up slightly. This was... Gong Qiu's ledger of embezzled money when he was the minister of the Ministry of Industry.
There is also evidence that he formed a clique for personal gain, but there is no correspondence or evidence of Gong Qiu's correspondence with Concubine Liu and the second prince.
The emperor slowly placed the notebook on the table, "Besides these two, is there no other evidence?"
Meng Yuncheng was stunned for a moment, then raised his head, confusion flashed across his face, "These, aren't these enough? Your Majesty, this account book records the amount of money Gong Qiu has embezzled over the years. The amount is huge. He..."
