Chapter 1561
It seems that everything has settled with Sun's hair loss!
In such a decisive way, Sun ended her half-life marriage with Ling Xianggang.
Ling Wan and Ling Xianggang were left behind.
In the end, she couldn't resist Ling Wan's persuasion and chose to practice in a small nunnery fifty miles away from the imperial capital.
Sun's "funeral", Ling Yu came out of the palace to attend her funeral as her niece.
Regarding Sun's final support for Ling Xianggang and Ling Wan, Ling Yu's resentment towards her disappeared.
For Sun, this ending is also a peace of mind.
But for the living people, both Ling Xianggang and Ling Wan still have a long way to go...
Ling Xianggang was already able to get off the ground and attended Sun's funeral with Ling Wan's support.
After the funeral was over, he knelt down to Ling Yu.
"Mother, everything that happened before was all because of Ling Xianggang's fault. The guilty minister owes the Sun family and his family!"
"The guilty minister should also die, but the guilty minister cannot die. The guilty minister must clear his name and seek justice for the soldiers who followed the guilty minister and died unjustly!"
Ling Xianggang looked determined: "The guilty minister wants to meet the emperor and ask the emperor to seek justice for the guilty minister!"
To be honest, Ling Yu didn't have a good impression of Ling Xianggang.
It was because of Ling Xianggang that the Sun family reached this point. From now on, the ancient Buddha of Qingdeng will accompany him throughout his life, and he will live a miserable life.
But Ling Xianggang can still marry again and live a good life.
But for the sake of the old Marquis, Ling Yu still brought Ling Xianggang's request into the palace.
Xiao Lintian heard this and said: "Since Ling Xianggang is willing to stay, then I will naturally help him clear his grievances. I don't want to see his martial arts skills go to waste like this!"
"However, it is still a bit difficult to completely overturn Ling Xianggang's case!"
Ling Yu asked curiously: "Why specifically? Ling Xianggang's ability to lead those people to defeat the imperial army in Xingyang proves that he is really capable. What happened at that time?"
Xiao Lintian smiled coldly: "This matter has nothing to do with Zhao Hui and Prince Kang!"
"At that time, Ling Xianggang was responsible for escorting two million taels of military pay to the border to support the war. He encountered an ambush on the way and all the military pay was robbed."
"Ling Xianggang escaped, 5,000 soldiers scattered and 1,000 escaped, and all other soldiers were killed!"
"Ling Xianggang fled to nearby Dongqiao Town to seek support, but by the time the state government sent soldiers to search, the robbers and soldiers had disappeared.
"These military salaries were all made by the government and were brand new. Afterwards, the Supreme Emperor sent imperial envoys to investigate the case thoroughly, but no useful clues were found."
Two million taels of military pay would need to be loaded on a lot of carriages. Ling Yu simply did not believe that the military pay would disappear without a trace like this.
There are also robbers. How can ordinary robbers be the opponents of the imperial army? If you want to defeat five thousand soldiers, you will need tens of thousands of robbers!
Ling Yu expressed all these doubts.
Xiao Lintian frowned: "I think so too, unless those robbers are not ordinary robbers at all, but imperial troops..."
Xiao Lintian looked at Ling Yu meaningfully: "At that time, King Kang was stationed in Jinghai Prefecture... My father is so wise, if Ling Xianggang really loses so much military pay, he will not escape death penalty!"
"But why was Ling Xianggang only taken away from his official position but not put in jail?"
Ling Yu was stunned for a moment, then frowned and said: "You are saying that my father has already guessed the truth of the matter. Because it was his prince Kang Wang who robbed the military salary, he did not go into details!"
"But for killing Ling Xianggang, my father felt guilty, so he had no choice but to take away Ling Xianggang's official position instead of killing him?"
