Chapter 54 (2/2)
”Yes, the only thing the grass people have done that is not right for the king's residence is to take the royal household utensils stolen by he Songfa. However, the grass people really just took them for resale and didn't instruct him to steal. He came with his things and begged me to take them.” Hao Jinping crawled on the ground and kept kowtowing and admitting his mistake. ”
”How long has it been?”
”It's almost ten years. He sold it to me for the first time. He came again several times every two years. The more recent years, the more times.”
”How many items of the palace have you sold?”
”There are more than 80 pieces after another.” Hao Jinping gritted his teeth and told the truth.
Gu Xingyun snorted coldly.
”You are so brave.” Gu Xingyun drank fiercely.
”It's the grass-roots people's fault. The grass-roots people are greedy for profit and open their eyes to money. Ask general Yunhui to let the grass-roots people go. The silver money sold to the grass-roots people over the years has been exchanged.” Hao Jinping was severely drunk by Gu Xingyun and began to kowtow and beg for mercy again.
”Do you know that among the things you resell, there must be a gift from the emperor. If you sell the gift from the emperor, you will kill your head and destroy the door.”
Hao Jinping was silly when he heard the speech. He always thought that although he reselled the utensils of the palace, he still didn't deserve to die. Gu Xingyun's words gave him a fatal blow and sold the gifts from the Emperor... Yes, he Songfa stole so many things. Who knows how many of them were awarded by the emperor.
He was stunned. This time, he not only killed his head, but also killed the door. Even if his wife is rotten, he has just taken on a charming concubine and a pair of lovely children
”General Yunhui, general. Please save the grass people. They are ignorant...” Hao Jinping banged his head.
”Ben will give you a chance.”
”Cao min, general Xie Yunhui saved his life.” Hao Jinping was overjoyed when he heard that there was room for discussion. Wiped the runny nose and tears on his face and wiped them with his sleeve.
Gu Xingyun looked at him disdainfully, took a step back and said, ”as long as you follow ben to confront he Songfa in front of the emperor. Ben will protect your life, just pay some penalty silver.”
”Imperial front?” Hao Jinping's body, which had just straightened up, collapsed again. Is this to ask him to go to the emperor and tell the emperor that he sold the Royal gift
”This will give you a chance to commit a crime and perform meritorious service. I'm not here to ask if you want to.” Gu Xingyun said calmly and coldly, ”either your whole family is destroyed. Or you have made meritorious accusations, and I will plead for you.”
”The grass-roots people want to report and are willing to confront.” Hao Jinping woke up. This is the only way to live.
”Wait.”
”Yes.”
