My Entire Family's Gone Haywire Novel! - Chapter 957
957 Petition for the people
The qu King was also in the hall. Seeing his son in this state, he first berated his son before admitting his mistake.
His son rebelled because he, as a father, did not discipline him well. All these years, he had been worried about the people and did not manage his son well.
The citizens who had received the qu King’s Grace felt guilty and pleaded for him. His Highness had done so much for the citizens and it had nothing to do with him.
!!
King qu waved his hands repeatedly. It was the Father’s fault for not teaching the child well.
The commoners were about to rush to the court to kowtow, all of them talking about the good things that King qu had done.
Lord Hu announced the withdrawal of the court, but King qu was also taken into custody.
……
In the Imperial study, the Emperor was furious.
He didn’t believe that the son of King qu was behind all this!
This old thief actually taught his son to say that he was the legitimate son and that his father’s status was low?
The Emperor had directly written a decree that anyone who rebelled against the qu clan would be executed!
when the edict was posted on the noticeboard, the commoners were unhappy. one by one, they ran to tell each other, quietly scolding the emperor for being cruel.
Someone came up with an idea to write a petition to save the life of His Highness the qu King.
In those years, His Highness the qu King had protected them. Now, they were protecting His Highness.
just as the people of the capital were beginning to sign the petition, another piece of news came. it was said that the king of qu had fainted in prison because his grandson had died, killed by top scorer gu.
The people were puzzled.top scorer Gu was from the Hanlin Academy. How could he go to the heavenly prison to kill people?
It was said that because the grandson of the qu King had hurt top scorer Gu’s daughter and niece, in a fit of anger, top scorer Gu had secretly bribed the people in the Imperial prison to sneak into the Imperial prison and kill the grandson of the qu King.
It was also said that the youngest daughter of the top scorer Gu was cruel and merciless. She had destroyed Princess linglan’s appearance and stabbed her countless times.
his highness, king qu, was in a daze as he washed his face with tears.
The common people were easily incited because the qu King’s image in their hearts was too positive. In their opinion, it was not good for the qu king’s son to rebel, and it was also not good for the qu King’s grandson and Princess Ling LAN to bully others. However, scholar Gu had gone too far by directly killing people. The youngest daughter of the scholar was too vicious. It was better to kill the person and let the princess die a good death. The one rebelling wasn’t them, but the Prince of King qu.
At this time, if you said that you would be punished, or that if something happened to one person, nine generations of the family would be executed, that would be nonsense to the people. The public was furious, and more than ten thousand people came to the palace, demanding that the Emperor treat them equally, disqualify the title of the top scholar, and punish the vicious and cruel daughter of the top scholar.
For a time, the Imperial Palace’s Gate was extremely lively.
In the Imperial court, there were also people who were not afraid of death who stood up for King qu and impeached Gu shouxin.
The Emperor suppressed his anger and noted down the names of the people who had jumped out. He had not realized in the past that so many of them had been bribed by King qu.
even his third prince had come out to speak for king qu.
The third Prince’s heart was beating like a drum when the Emperor looked at him.
However, when he thought about the conversation he had with Li Shan over the past two days, he mustered up his courage again.
The third Prince had married the princess in August this year. He had asked the princess to use her name to invite Li Shan to stay in the Prince’s Manor for a while.
He couldn’t wait to ask Li Shan if she was the girl from back then.
Li Shan naturally said yes. The third Prince then asked her,”how did you run from Qing Province to Tong province? you were still so young at that time.”
Li Shan said that she had a dream in which a man was trapped. Her fear was real, and she couldn’t bear to see such a man in such despair. She wanted to try.
If it was true, wouldn’t she be able to save someone’s life?
If it wasn’t true and it was just a long trip, she wouldn’t lose anything.
The third Prince felt that Li Shan was really kind. It was just a dream, and he didn’t even know if it was real or fake, but she had already given up so much and traveled such a long distance. At that time, she was only ten years old!
She was kind and brave.
Later on, Li Shan would tell him about her dream from time to time. In the third Prince’s eyes, Li Shan was always telling the truth. He was treating Li Shan like a treasure.
Hence, when Li Shan said that the qu King would not die this time, he believed her and stood up to speak for the qu King.
