FORGOTTEN LEGEND OF THE BLOODIED FLOWER

Chapter 1622 Chi Family’s Trouble (2)



Chapter 1622 Chi Family’s Trouble (2)

With Shangguan Yu’s words, no one would be able to point any mistakes and would think that he was doing it justly.

General Chi is a powerful General and also has been trusted for a long time.

Because of that, they were willing to trust him.

But at the same time, in this matter, they were the one asked to judge. To be fair, they still have to see the overall situation clearly.

Shangguan Yu expressed himself clearly and also stated his position very well, leaving no room for questioning.

Prince Yang Lu felt that he was truly not as good as the other party.

The two of them were clearly of similar age, but why did he feel that their intelligence level was not the same?

He felt a bit troubled now.

Drap! Drap! Drap!

Soon, a eunuch ran in. They actually already have the report from the people who cleared the location. There were sign of weapons buried inside.

It meant that General Chi was telling the truth.

“Your Highness, the people had already come back. They reported that there are signs of weapons being buried inside the buildings.”

“Impossible!” General Chi’s cousin was about to jump up and retort but the eunuch beside him was glaring, so he quickly kowtowed again.

At the same time, his mind was in a mess.

There was no way that these weapons would be placed in that building because he didn’t engage in weapon’s business. Even though there were a certain degree of freedom in trading, weapon was clearly off limit.

Because they were in the middle of a war.

If they were to spread weapon and own weapon outside military, were they trying to rebel?

It was a heavy accusation.

Those who dared to betray Fei Yang Kingdom will definitely be executed for treason.

“I see.” Prince Yang Lu nodded and waved his hand to dismiss the eunuch. He looked at the two people near General Chi and then turned his head to look at Shangguan Yu.

Shangguan Yu narrowed his eyes slightly but the corner of his lips curled up.

It’s interesting.

“Does His Majesty allows me to give out an edict for this issue, Imperial Brother?” Shangguan Yu asked Prince Yang Lu.

“Yes.” Prince Yang Lu nodded.

The one who could give out Imperial Edicts are everyone from the Imperial Family. However, the weight for each Imperial Edicts would be different based on who give it out.

For example, a prince’s Imperial Edict will be lower than an Emperor’s Imperial Edict.

And if there are two people who give out contradicting Imperial Edicts, the one people should follow is the Imperial Edict given by the one with the higher position.

The Emperor was naturally the highest.

The crown prince and Empress came after him. After that, it was the other princes, princess, and Empress Dowagers.

Imperial Concubines can also give orders, but their words’ weight was usually not very big and can be contradicted by other Imperial Concubines. The situation in harem was usually very complicated because of this.

Though, not many people actually pay attention to it.

They were not idle enough to pry to Emperor’s private life.

“In that case, hear my words.” Shangguan Yu turned to look at the two people. “General Chi’s family used his funds to open illegal shop and engaged in illegal trading of weapons. For their crime, they shall be executed in public to give example for others not to repeat their mistakes.”

“Yes, Your Highness!”

“No!”

General Chi’s uncle and cousin felt despair when they heard the Imperial Edicts given by Shangguan Yu. Even though Shangguan Yu is only a princess’ son in law, he’s still given the title of prince by the Emperor.

It was unknown how much Emperor Yang Zhou actually valued Shangguan Yu.

So the officials were still willing to listen to him to a certain degree.

Shangguan Yu looked at the kneeling General Chi in front of him. “I hope this is enough, General Chi.”

General Chi’s body shook for a moment before he replied, “Yes, Your Highness. Thank you very much for your benevolence.”

General Chi knew very well that this kind of act couldn’t fool people who were truly smart at above. It could only fool the majority of people to think that what he said was indeed the truth.

He turned his head slightly to look in the direction of his uncle and cousin before lowering his head again.

You hate me, right?

Then, hate me.

Because I will also hate you.

For so many years, he had allowed these people to suck blood from him and only then he realized that they were only using him. He has never been a kind person.

If he was truly very kind, he would have never been able to become a general.

The amount of blood he shed in his life was very large.

It was impossible for him to reach this position without having blood spilled on the ground for various reasons.

Honestly, he did think of letting them go.

But when he saw they were all still trying to cheat on him, General Chi realized that from the very beginning, they never treated him as their relatives. He had no one else in this world who would care for him.

His two blood related sons have both passed away.

His wife had long abandoned him for another man and only thought of him as nothing more than a tool to earn more money.

His relatives who should have been his closest people, all treated him as nothing more than another tool for money.

No one truly care for him.

Even if there were indeed those who did, they were no longer in this world.

General Chi sighed deeply.

The execution was arranged within an extremely short period of time, not giving the people from Chi Family any time to react.

They were all clamoring injustice but the evidences were there.

Some people also testified for them.

So their ending was doomed.
