Except for Shang Wanqing who was married, none of the merchants survived.
Not long after that, Qi State was destroyed, so the original owner remembered this matter very deeply.
After learning the truth of the matter, the original owner always felt that Du Yueli's actions were too cruel. What kind of crazy woman would raise the butcher's knife to her husband and children
Later he learned that Shang Bingjun had always been a pawn of Chu State, and that all the tragic deaths in Annanhou's mansion were all caused by Shang Bingjun.
Shang Bingjun provided false information, and told the Chu army about the combat layout of several people in the Annan Hou Mansion, which was also the main reason for the death of Lord Hou and his sons on the battlefield.
In order to eradicate the grass, he sent people to pretend to be bandits, and slaughtered all the old and weak women and children left in Annanhou's mansion.
After Du Yueli also knew the cruel truth, in desperation, she slaughtered all the merchants.
Shang Bingjun is completely self-inflicted.
In fact, the original owner admired Du Yueli very much, she did what he couldn't.
Qi Wang also admires Du Yueli as a woman, and this is the normal reaction of a normal person after being framed and ruined.
Isn't Du Yueli a young lady who grew up pampered and pampered? She gave birth to six children with Shang Bingjun, and the relationship between husband and wife for more than 30 years cannot be faked at all. But after knowing Shang Bingjun's true face and what he did with him, she suffered from pain and confusion. In the end, he chose to avenge his family.
There are many feelings in this world that are more important than love. Compared with Du Yueli, and looking at what the original owner did, Qi Wang felt that the original owner was really inferior to Du Yueli.
It’s just that for some people, love is above everything else and can override all emotions, no matter how many heinous things the person they love has done, hurting their family, friends and even their country, As long as the other party said that he loved him, these people seemed to be able to forgive each other.
Even if it was the original owner, he didn't actually hate Chu Li before he knew what happened later. He only wanted to die by himself, but he never thought of Chu Li's life.
When he paid the price to summon Qi Wanglai, he never thought of taking revenge on Chu Li, but just wanted to change the fate of his family and the country.
After all, he was still reluctant to hurt Chu Li.
Maybe it's because Qi Wang always has the upper hand because of reason, but he can't really understand the original owner's thoughts.
Does love really have such a strong magic power that people can give up everything for it
"My lord, what are you thinking?"
Chang Le came in from outside the house with a tray, saw Qi Wang sitting by the window in a daze, he walked over quickly, closed the window that was too wide open and made it smaller.
"Your Highness, it's cold outside, you have to pay attention to your body, be careful not to catch a cold."
Qi Wang withdrew his gaze, and looked at Chang Le who was standing beside him with a concerned expression on his face.
"Changle, if there is a person who says he likes you, but imprisons you, hurts your family, and kills your friends, will you still like him?"
Chang Le shook his head, and replied resolutely: "No, although I have never loved anyone, I know that if I really love someone, I will not let him be sad, imprison him, hurt his family, and kill his friends. , this is not a lover, this is an enemy."
If you really love someone, you will do everything possible to treat him well, give him the best things in this world, care about him, love him, and let him live his life happily.
Although Chang Le has never loved anyone, but when he thinks about his little Highness, he has more understanding.
He couldn't bear His Highness being sad, thinking that His Highness was always happy, not to mention hurting His Highness himself, even thinking about His Highness's suffering would break his heart.
"Little Highness, don't look at those sadistic romances in those messy scripts. They have ruined the other party's family. They are imprisoned and abused. This is no different from treating enemies. How can there be love? ?”
After returning to the Longevity Palace, Changle also knew the reason why Chang'an would be sent away. These days, he was always paying attention to Qi Wang's books. When cleaning up the study two days ago, he found some folk tales. It really hurts the eyes.
The protagonist was abused to death, and in the end he was still with the person who abused him, and he said that he knew that the other person loved him, and he did so many wrong things because he loved him too much. The lover already knew that he was wrong, Those family members and friends who were killed must not want to be trapped in hatred, they must want him to be happy with his lover.
He wanted to fulfill the last wishes of those he loved the most, and happily be with the murderers who killed those people.
After reading these scripts, Changle is in a bad mood. Could it be that His Highness has been reading these things recently? How can that be! Then he heard Qi Wang's question again, and Chang Le's heart was full of alarm bells, thinking that his little highness might have really been influenced by those scripts and had some bad thoughts.
He must reverse His Highness's thoughts!
Chang Le, who consciously shouldered the important task of changing His Highness's three views, racked his brains, thinking about how to persuade His Highness not to think wildly.
"Your Highness, what do you think, if you fell in love with someone, would you abuse him? Hurt his family, kill his friends?"
"If you fell in love with someone in the future and he hurt you and your family, would you still feel that he loved you?"
Chang Le, who usually doesn't talk much, started chattering now. He talked a lot, but there was only one meaning in what he said.
People who really love you will not hurt you and your family, only enemies will raise the butcher knife against you and your family.
Qi Huan: "..."
He just asked a casual question, what did Chang Le think of, why did he talk so much all of a sudden
He is also kind, he said, just listen to yourself.
Fortunately, Chang Le also knows how to measure. After talking for a while, seeing that Qi Wang seemed to have started to lose his mind, he closed his mouth and didn't continue talking.
Qi Wang, who was about to fall asleep due to the nagging, let out a sigh of relief.
Although it is kind, but listening to him chanting like this will also make you feel tired.
After drinking tea, Qi Wang felt that the room was too stuffy, so he simply went to the yard for a walk, and Chang Le stayed quietly behind Qi Wang, just like his shadow.
Five days later, Shang Bingjun was impeached by the censor in the court. The other party cited countless evidences, saying that he bought and sold official positions in private, robbed the people of good land, embezzled military pay, sold slaves and so on.
According to the laws of Daqi, any one of these crimes is a serious crime of copying one's home, not to mention that Shang Bingjun has violated so many crimes.
After being whipped by Du Yueli last time, Shang Bingjun was seriously injured. He has been raising him at home for the past two days. Naturally, he didn't know what happened in the court. When he was complaining and cursing Du Yueli, Prince Qi Heng He led people to surround the Minister's Mansion of the Ministry of War.
Naturally, Shang Bingjun refused to accept it and called out his injustice. However, the evidence of the crime was solid and there was no room for him to refute it. Shang Bingjun's black hat was taken off, and all the merchants were sent to prison.
Qi Heng suspected that Shang Bingjun was a spy from another country. He almost dug three feet into the ground when he ransacked the house, but his hard work paid off, and he finally found the evidence.
There is a basement in Shang Bingjun’s study room, in which there are several camphorwood boxes filled with letters. In addition to letters, there are also several thick diaries, which record in detail what he has done over the years. past things.
[On a certain day in a certain year, the master asked me to marry the second lady of Annanhou's mansion so that I could climb up the ladder better. I don't like that domineering second lady, but for my mission, I had no choice but to stay with her reluctantly.]
[On a certain day in a certain year, the task entrusted to me by the master became more and more difficult, and I was almost exposed several times. I wanted to go back to Chu.]
[On a certain day in a certain year, I became the Minister of the Ministry of War, and one step further, I would be the Minister of the Ministry of War. If I were in Chu State, where would I have the opportunity to be the Minister of the Ministry of War?]
[On a certain day, a certain month and a certain year, I regretted it a little. What's so bad about being a minister of the Ministry of War?]
[On a certain day in a certain year, His Royal Highness actually came to Qi State in person, did he suspect that I had been shaken? Fortunately not...]
[On a certain day of a certain year, I will stop after finishing this task. The days are very good now, all Qi and Chu are the same...]
Judging from the handwriting, these diaries were written by Shang Bingjun. Many of the diaries have turned yellow, and the handwriting on them is much blurred. It is obvious that they were written many years ago.
After seeing this thick pile of diaries, the expressions on the faces of the confidants who followed Qi Heng were a little hard to describe.
Others are spies, and they wish they could erase all the traces. This Shang Bingjun is good, for fear that people don't know what he has done. He doesn't say anything, but writes down everything. This kind of behavior really makes people don't know what to say.
He didn't think about it, if he was exposed, these would be strong evidence, or, he felt that he would never be discovered, that's why he was so confident.
But no matter what he thought, the things he left behind happened to be the best evidence, and the evidence was so overwhelming that even if he wanted to retract his confession, it would be impossible.
Qi Heng asked his subordinates to take all these things out, and was going to tell King Qi about what Shang Bingjun had done.
"One more thing, tell those who are staring at Li Chu not to wait any longer, and arrest Li Chu immediately."
The subordinates went to take orders, but the expression on Qi Heng's face became more serious.
He has read all the diaries written by Shang Bingjun just now. In the latest diary, Shang Bingjun mentioned one thing. He said that the prince of Chu State came to Qi State in person.
There is an 80% chance that the prince of Chu is that Li Chu.
Thinking of this series of conspiracies, a layer of cold sweat broke out on Qi Heng's back.
Chu State can give up a prince to come here, and what they plan is definitely not simple. They mobilized all the forces remaining in Qi State, carefully designed Qi's fall into the cliff, and then let Li Chu appear in Qi State as a lifesaver. around.
Three months is enough time for Qi Wang, who is pure in nature, to have a deep-rooted love for Li Chu. In fact, Qi Wang did marry Li Chu before he came back.
If it wasn't because Qi Huang suddenly came to his senses and didn't continue to entangle with Li Chu, this Li Chu would enter and leave the palace as Qi Huang's husband, and with their love for Qi Huang, it would be a matter of time before they accepted this Li Chu. The other party is scheming, and they have no intention of guarding against it. What will happen in the end
The more I think about Qi Heng, the more terrifying I feel, and at the same time, I feel a deep sense of disgust towards Chu State.
In the past, they didn't like the Lu State. They believed that Lu State was warlike and Qi State was a huge threat. That's why they made friends with Chu State, the weakest of the three countries. Thinking that Qi and Chu would join hands, Lu State would definitely have some scruples , not daring to make a move against Qi Guo.
However, the facts have proved that although Lu State is warlike, they put everything on the bright side, but Chu State is different. Qi State treats Chu State sincerely, even marrying all the princesses of Qi State to Chu State. She chose the king of Chu State as a concubine, but Chu State did not care about the friendship between the two parties, and secretly made such a hand.
The state of Chu is ambitious, and they have already started arranging all of this decades ago. It is self-evident what they want to plot. I am afraid that what Chu state wants is the entire Qi state.
Although the state of Qi does not like to fight, it is not a soft persimmon. When the ancestors of the state of Qi pacified the world, they also conquered the country on horseback. Hundreds of years have passed, and the kings of the state of Qi have never lost their blood. It's just wrapped in a gentle appearance.
If so, it would be a big mistake to think that they are weak and deceptive.
The merchant's home was ransacked, causing panic. For some reason, the people in Qinglan City suddenly remembered the reconciliation between the second lady of the Annan Hou Mansion and Shang Bingjun some time ago.
That incident also caused a great disturbance. Now the merchant's house has been ransacked, and all the people in the merchant have been imprisoned. Only Du Yueli and Shang Wanqing, who are in harmony, escaped the catastrophe.
Many people started to discuss, thinking that maybe the Annan Houfu knew something in advance, so they forced their daughter to make peace with Shang Bingjun.
"I didn't expect that the Marquis of Annan's Mansion would be so powerful. If something happened to the merchant, it would be nothing more than helping, but it would actually be worse."
"You are wrong. The merchant committed a serious crime. What's more, even in the past, it was Shang Bingjun who climbed the Annanhou Mansion. You must know that the Annanhou Mansion is a first-rank Marquis Mansion. Jie, can Shang Bingjun achieve what he is today?"
"Let me tell you, Annanhou's Mansion is worthy of being a veteran nobleman. After such a reconciliation, without in-law relationship, no matter what happens to the merchant, it will not be involved in Annanhou's Mansion."
People outside talked a lot, but except for a very few people who said that the Annanhou Mansion was not authentic, most people thought that there was nothing wrong with the Annanhou Mansion's actions.
The servants who went out to inquire about the news came back soon and told all the rumors outside.
After hearing these words, Lord Hou and Madam Hou breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, fortunately, he cut off the relationship with the businessman decisively at the beginning, otherwise, if such a big incident happened, the Marquis Annan Mansion might be implicated too.
Just thinking of their daughter who was in a bad mood recently, Lord Hou and Mrs. Hou's mood fell again.
But this kind of thing can't be persuaded by others, everything can only be figured out by herself.
When Qi Wang got the news, Li Chu, it shouldn't be said that Chu Li had been caught by the men sent by Qi Heng and put into the prison.
Qi Huan: "..."
This speed is really fast enough.
