Conspiracy

Chapter 66

Outside the city of Kyoto, the soldiers stopped and stood. The soldiers at the front put away their weapons and held white soul-inducing banners.Xiao Chuhong's face was pale, and he was helped out of the carriage and sat on a wooden wheelchair.

Xiao Chuhong, who had removed his battle armor, was wearing a white mourning dress with a black belt around his body.A piece of pure white jade pendant hung from his waist, upon closer inspection, one can vaguely see traces of blood in the jade pendant, it was a gift from Xiao Mohan to him.

Xiao Chuhong's eyes were as clear as ice, and he looked up at the gate of Kyoto, which was very close in front of him.It has gone through several dynasties and generations, and it still stands majestically here.Thousands of people in the city were crying bitterly on the side of the street, but he pursed his lips and remained silent without saying a word.

Xiao Mohan's body was stored in the huge coffin at the rear.Outside the coffin, there are dense depictions of Xiao Mohan's achievements in his life, as well as his heroic figure of strategizing, taking charge of the changing situation while talking and laughing, and leading the army to kill the enemy on the battlefield.

Civil and military officials waited for a long time outside the city gate, and the officers and soldiers did not show much expression on their faces when they greeted those officials with condolences and greetings.

They charged ahead, but they didn't expect to be stabbed by their own people in the end, and even asked their marshal to take the blame. This matter is absolutely unbearable!

Xiao Chuhong had no intention of going into the city with the generals. He put one hand on the wheelchair and squinted at the officials with cold and sharp eyes.It seems to make people feel that they are wearing single clothes in the severe cold weather of April and September, and they suddenly feel the bone-chilling chill.

"I ask the emperor to rectify Marshal Xiao's name! Give him justice!"

The young man stared straight ahead, his cold voice lacked a trace of warmth, mixed with dissatisfaction with the court, and unwillingness to suffer infamy for his father's death in vain.

"The emperor please rectify the name of the marshal!"

"The emperor please rectify the name of the marshal!"

"The emperor please rectify the name of the marshal!"

The voices of the soldiers in the rear were as loud as a bell, shouting in unison over and over again, with a firm tone and no fear at all.

Su Tingye was granted permission not to go to court today, standing among the common people and watching the officers and soldiers passionately wanting to seek justice for Marshal Xiao, his eyes flickered.By helping Xiao Mohan in this way, they are trampling on the royal face, and if they are not careful, they will be accused of treason.

He suppressed the thoughts of the military general in the court, but unexpectedly, Xiao Chuhong, a young general who is not afraid of power, appeared.

"Your Majesty, my minister Xiao Chuhong does not seek fame and wealth, nor does he seek high officials and marquises, but only begs the Emperor to rectify my father's name! Why should he be framed and slandered by treacherous ministers and good generals of his generation! Luo Qi Jiangshan, whose surname is Shang, can be easily swayed by them! If something goes wrong, you have to blame it on the hero! Please the emperor issue an imperial edict to find out the truth and rectify the name of Marshal Xiao!"

Xiao Chuhong held his head high and his chest high, making a loud noise, without any fear of losing his life because of it.

All the people present were shocked by him. Once the guilt edict is issued, it must be recorded in the annals of history, and future generations will judge the merits and demerits.

The people were also dumbfounded, the courtiers blamed Xiao Mohan for the crime, but Xiao Chuhong asked the emperor to admit his mistakes and justify his father's name.

Seeing this, Ji Mengping came out to smooth things over, "General Xiao, you became famous and fought in the battlefield at a young age, so you know how to fear people's words. Those who clean themselves clean up, and rumors stop with the wise, not to mention that Xiliang, the culprit, has suffered heavy losses. The general was also beheaded by Marshal Xiao, so why make a big fuss and let the marshal rest in the ground."

"Yeah, how can we let him not rest in peace?" Xiao Chuhong put his right hand on the armrest of the wheelchair, snorted and chuckled, slowly raised his eyes, looked at the righteous left minister in the distance, looked around, and said every word Said, "Even if the world is turned upside down, no matter who is in charge of the ups and downs, I will never tolerate my father being wronged!"
