Han Pin's words made Zhou Gu look like a mourning test. He hasn't recovered yet, and the emperor is using him.
The so-called wall is pushed down by everyone. After Mu Guangcai and Han Pin confessed, those who had defected to the emperor before came out one after another, selling everything Zhou Gu did in the past!
Taking this opportunity, they also spoke out about their crimes. This is a good opportunity. The so-called law does not blame the public. Now speaking out, not only went to the hidden danger, but also indirectly helped the emperor. The emperor will definitely take it lightly.
With this thought in mind, they explained everything in one sentence.
For the first time, Zhou Gu knew that he had lived to this age and had done so many evil things! At this moment, his body crooked, and he could no longer kneel straight.
Tonight, he just killed the Zhong family. He didn't expect that he would follow the Zhong family's footsteps so quickly? So what's the use of everything he's done over the years
Finally, when everyone had finished what they had to say, Wen Ze couldn't bear to close his eyes, and Mo Linyuan looked at the crowd of people kneeling below and sighed long.
"What you said really opened my eyes!" He half-smiled, "You have done things that I could not have imagined, you are smart, you are really smart people."
After listening to those people, they bowed their heads in guilt, and the ministers sitting on both sides around them were not feeling well either. How many of them could have been officials for many years and truly had a clear conscience? They only survived the disaster by seeing the situation in advance and following the emperor.
Mo Linyuan rubbed his brows and said after a long time, "Zhou Gu, 31 violations of the law! Twenty-seven capital crimes are unforgivable, I sentenced the men of the Zhou family to be executed! All the women of the Zhou family can enter the temple to practice and atone for the evil deeds the Zhou family has done!"
At this time, Zhou Gu had no excuse, and everyone in the Zhou family closed their eyes in despair, not expecting this day to come so quickly.
Others, except Mu Guangcai, were sentenced to death, and the others were exiled. Compared with what they did, they were definitely punished lightly today, and some were even downgraded by one level.
When Zhou Gu was pulled down, his face was ashen. He used to dream of annexing the Zhong family, but now
He suddenly glared at Wen Ze!
"Wen Ze! You old man, you deceived us so miserably"
When someone pulled him, Zhou Gu roared while struggling!
"Do you think, you think you can eradicate us like this, one family is the only one? You are wrong!"
He pointed to Mo Linyuan in a high position, "This person is not a cub that you can control. One day, my ending today will be your end in the future!"
Until he was dragged away, he was still shouting over and over again, "I am your future end!"
Wen Ze looked pale and looked at Mo Linyuan, but Mo Linyuan didn't look at him, but his expression was tense.
After a while, except for some of the prisoners, Mo Linyuan waved his hand and allowed them to take their seats.
At this time, the sky was already slightly bright, but Mo Linyuan asked the royal chef to prepare the dishes again and prepare the banquet.
I didn't sleep for almost a night, not only did I not eat, but I also experienced so many consecutive bombings.
No one present was tired or hungry, but felt that the banquet was too long and mocking.
Plates of exquisite dishes were placed in front of everyone, and roasted golden and oily barbecued meat was cut into slices and served on the table. Finally, it was replaced with mellow wine. Mo Linyuan first raised a glass and said with a smile.
"Tonight, everyone has worked hard. If you can't see a night hunting, you will inevitably get hurt by accident. So now, when you drink this glass of wine, it's a memory for those who didn't come out of the woods!"
The corners of Mo Linyuan's mouth were slightly raised. The Zhong family and the Zhou family faced each other head-on, and there were still many corpses in the forest waiting to be collected, but it didn't matter, those were not important.
With a great victory, he raised his head and drank the wine in the cup.
Ye Mu noticed that many people below secretly wiped away their tears when they were drinking.
Factional disputes have always been fierce. Presumably many of their relatives and friends died in the woods.
The low whimper came, and Mo Linyuan didn't seem to hear it. The previous intimidation was too much, and if they don't let them vent at this time, they are afraid that they will go crazy.
On the other hand, Ye Mu Jianwen drank suffocating wine cup by cup, suddenly left Mo Linyuan and walked towards him.
"Prime Minister Wen, are you in a bad mood?"
Wen Ze was frightened when he saw her, "Miss Ye!"
Ye Mu smiled, "I can't be a great gift from the Prime Minister, but why is the Prime Minister worried, why don't you tell me, and let me explain a thing or two for you?"
Wen Ze glanced at Mo Linyuan, who was sitting high, and shook his head, "Xiang'er caused trouble for Miss Ye today."
The Xiang'er he said was the one that Mo Linyuan rescued before.
Ye Mu shook his head, "The Prime Minister sent Miss Xiang'er here today because he was worried that His Majesty would treat you like Lord Zhou in the future?"
Seemingly not expecting Ye Mu to be so direct, Wen Ze was stunned.
Ye Mu said with a smile, "If that's the case, the Prime Minister doesn't need to worry."
Wen Ze knew that Ye Mu was the closest person to Mo Linyuan, so he didn't dare to neglect, "What do you mean by Miss Ye?"
Ye Mu said, "Your Majesty once told me that he can raise ferocious tigers or snakes that bite people, provided that their ferocity is against others."
Wen Ze chuckled, but there was a bit of bitterness in the smile.
"What if the snake ever bit him? Does he still keep it?"
Ye Mu smiled and said, "I asked him this question at the time, but he said"
Ye Mu looked in the direction of Mo Linyuan, "But he said that since it is a fierce beast, it must be wild and difficult to train. Before it is tamed, it is normal to be caught and bitten. As long as it can be tamed, it will be fine, and , such a beast is extremely loyal once tamed, and he needs such a pet."
Wen Ze smiled inexplicably, he looked at Ye Mu, "No wonder Your Majesty values you, you really have the wisdom to be the mother of a country."
Ye Mu was stunned for a moment, and quickly waved his hand, "I just don't want to have a gap between you. I also know the grievances and grievances of your previous generation, but those are all over."
Ye Mu suddenly lowered his voice, "Although you indirectly forced the first queen to death, as long as you are willing to continue to help Your Majesty, the past will definitely pass. I can guarantee this."
Her words made Wen Ze feel relieved, he said with a smile.
"You know, Miss Ye." A look of gratitude appeared on his weak face. "Although you are still young, your promise has given me great peace of mind. Please also pass on your feelings to His Majesty."
"Well, I will!"
Ye Mu smiled, and at this time, Mo Linyuan suddenly looked at her with a dissatisfied expression.
