The lives of the people were saved.
The old emperor, whose reputation had been preserved, breathed a long sigh of relief.
Her eyes were fixed on Yao Cong, who was flying and leaping at the top of several ladders, and she could not help but applaud him in her hands.
She knew: Yao Cong actually didn't have that high level of martial arts.
Suddenly something Di Ying said flashed through his mind: When a crisis comes, there will always be someone who will risk his or her life to pay.
This is the true loyalty, the true celebrities and generals of the country!
And Yao Cong, after grabbing all the strings in his hands, pursed his lips and whistled.
A spinning knife flew out from the hand of the man at his feet and quickly circled the tops of all the thin ropes several times.
When the revolving knife fell back into the man's hand, all the Kongming lanterns had gotten rid of their restraints and flew away freely.
People clapped harder.
However, Yao Cong and the soldiers smiled shyly, and did not even take the opportunity to ask for favors from His Majesty. They quickly dispersed the ladder and took back the scabbard.
As if nothing was wrong, they stood back to their original positions in an honest and well-behaved manner and continued to perform their tasks.
New fireworks exploded in the air, letting people fall into the sea of joy again.
Jiang Ze was already kneeling there in fear, trembling all over and sweating like rain.
He knew that he was doomed and his whole family was doomed.
But he just didn't know why he let go.
The strong ropes connected below the Kongming Lanterns are all connected to a main rope. At that time, he raised his hands high, actually pulling the main rope, hoping to make the Kongming Lanterns fly higher.
But at that time, he suddenly saw Song Wen, one of the civil and military officials, raising the huge IOU towards him.
Jiang Ze's mind was suddenly confused for a moment.
And the main rope just slipped away.
There are so many sky lanterns that are not easy to control. Originally, I found a few more skilled guards to control it.
But Jiang Ze came up with this limelight.
This is such a huge opportunity, how could he be willing to miss it?
For this reason, he even gave Wu Qiongsi a lot of money and gifts.
This idea was thought up by Wu Qiongsi’s staff. Originally, Wu Qiongsi was supposed to be standing next to the guards, showing off to His Majesty.
However, some staff said: The intention to please His Majesty is too obvious, and the people will not believe it. It is better to let His Majesty feel it himself.
Rather than letting one person see it, it is better to let one person guess the result. That way the effect will be better.
Wu Qiongsi felt that it was reasonable, so he gave Jiang Ze the opportunity to show his face.
Jiang Ze was actually very attentive. In such a strenuous situation, he devoted all his energy to controlling the main rope.
who knows……
Seeing the IOU in Song Wen's hand and thinking of sneaking into the Forbidden Palace, Jiang Ze panicked and his hand slipped.
Seeing those sky lanterns gradually rising into the sky, Jiang Ze's first thought was: It's no big deal.
He also thought: Just treat it as a long dragon leaping into the sky, and you can get a good fortune.
I am very happy for my clever idea.
Who knew: the main rope suddenly broke, causing all the thin ropes to fall apart.
Jiang Ze was immediately frightened to the point of losing his mind and his soul.
He was finished, really finished.
Even with Yao Cong's emergency rescue, Jiang Ze knew that he and his whole family would not survive.
Everyone, including His Majesty, knew very well: He, Jiang Ze, and Yao Cong were not in the same pot.
This made Jiang Ze want to find an excuse and say: This is a wonderful show that he deliberately arranged, but it didn't work.
No one would believe this, just like no one would believe his previous unintentional loosening of the rope.
He looked at His Majesty tremblingly, and could only hope that Your Majesty would be in a good mood now and would be able to regard everything as a fault and be tolerant and not pursue any further charges.
But how is it possible?
The old emperor could regard the Kongming Lantern incident as an accident, but it was definitely not an accident that she could bear or allow.
She glanced at Su Hong.
Su Hong understood immediately, turned around and went down to the tower, went to Zhang Dayu, who was already the commander-in-chief of the left and right Jinwu Guards, and conveyed His Majesty's will.
Jiang Ze was immediately gagged and quietly left the scene.
The other team of Jinwu Guards followed Zhang Dayu's order and quickly went to Jiang Ze's mansion.
Wu Qiongsi shrank behind the pillar.
He saw Jiang Ze's eyes pleading for help, but he could only shrink back, trying not to be noticed by His Majesty.
Wu Qiongsi couldn't save Jiang Ze, he just wanted to save himself first.
At this time, he was extremely glad that he had listened to that staff member's advice.
After having fun with the people, the old emperor left the tower and returned to the imperial study amidst the people's kowtows and shouts of "Long Live the Mountain".
An old face with a very happy smile finally had a chance to collapse.
Suddenly the clouds were overcast.
The order was given: "Thoroughly investigate all Jiang Ze's violations of the law, search the Chiang Mansion, arrest the people in the Chiang Mansion, and put them all on death row."
This time, the old emperor wanted to kill Jiang Ze to death.
She wanted to get the evidence that Jiang Ze was evil.
She would never let anyone say that she was a murderous and cruel person, nor would anyone say that she killed a whole family just because of an accident.
She wants real evidence.
His Majesty was furious, and the evidence was quickly delivered to her one by one.
Jiang Ze's dirty tricks of using pawnshops to steal other people's valuables were exposed;
In order to keep this secret, Jiang Ze killed people to silence him;
It was also exposed that Jiang Ze was corrupt and perverted the law, bribing Wu Qiongsi while buying and selling low-level officials.
Jiang Ze's wife's natal family, the Han Jinpeng Han family, took advantage of Jiang Ze's influence to occupy farmland, evade finance and taxation, buy and sell by force, and other illegal deeds, all of which were listed one by one.
The most serious incident is: Jiang Ze entered the palace at will without an identity token.
The old emperor threw these evidences onto the cold jade brick floor, so that no one dared to say a good word for Jiang Ze.
Not only did they not dare to say good things to him, but they also added insult to injury and impeached Jiang Ze wildly, completely throwing the Jiang family and the Han family into the abyss, and there was no longer any possibility of being alive.
Especially Wu Qiongsi. While explaining to himself that he had been deceived by Jiang Ze, he sold Jiang Ze out.
The old emperor immediately ordered that Jiang Ze be cut into pieces. Both the Jiang and Han mansions had their families copied and executed.
Yao Cong, who had outstanding performance and made great contributions, was transferred to Xiannan Jiedushi.
A first-grade officer, who controls the entire Jiannan Road.
Among them: including Jiazhou.
Who is there in Jiazhou? Do you remember?
Wu Yi Zong.
The Wuyi sect with one hundred thousand soldiers and horses, was scared away when thousands of Khitan enemies came, and then wantonly massacred the common people who were kidnapped by the Khitan and escaped back, as well as the whole family of those common people.
"Da He" Wu Yi Zong was hated by countless people even more than the Khitans.
