Chapter 46
After the wounds of the two of them were bandaged, Shang Shixu held Lin Jingmo's injured hand, looked up at her affectionately and said, "Ma'am, you only need to do things according to your heart in the future, and the husband will not influence you anymore." idea."

Lin Jingmo was a little surprised when he heard the words: Didn't he self-mutilate and get injured just to make me agree not to pursue the father and son surnamed Zhang?Why are you so ignorant of this...

Shang Shixu stood up, sat beside her and hugged her into his arms. Lin Jingmo leaned on his solid chest and said tentatively, "Husband...change your mind, don't you intend to please Zhang Yiqian?"

Shang Shixu didn't speak, but just shook his head.

Lin Jingmo suddenly remembered that Marquis Anyang still had something in his hands, so he got up from his arms and said, "Are you targeting Uncle Anyang?"

Before Shang Shixu could return to her, someone preached outside the door: "My lord, there is a visitor."

Shang Shixu got up to appease Lin Jingmo and said, "Wait for me to come back." After saying that, he went to the outer hall.

……

Shang Shixu came to the outer hall, he did not expect that the visitor was actually Anyang
Uncle, he asked calmly on the surface: "Why did Uncle Anyang come to my business house? It should be the late student who went to see him." Seeing that Uncle Anyang didn't reply, he continued: "Uncle Anyang's visit this time, should I Could it be because of that little case many years ago?"

Uncle Anyang didn't look sideways, sat upright in the hall, and said slowly: "That's not a small case. Eight years ago, the river flooded and the dam collapsed. I closed the dam in Anyang for a short-term benefit, causing the flood to spread to more than ten years south of Anyang. In this county, countless people were displaced, and some people even lost their lives. I have a deep friendship with the Minister of the Household Department who is in charge of this case, so he concealed this matter for me. Medium? Suffering from guilt. The former Minister of the Ministry of Finance has retired and returned to his hometown. He passed away a few years ago. Unexpectedly, the new Shang Shilang, a young talent, has only been in the Ministry of Finance for three years. You discovered the clues of this case .”

Shang Shixu replied: "The dead are like this, and the past cannot be changed. Don't worry, Uncle Anyang, Shang will never mention this matter to the Holy Majesty lightly."

"Although Shang Shilang is willing to hide this for the old man, but you do not report the knowledge, what crime do you know?" Uncle Anyang got up and said: "Today, I came to the Shang mansion. First, I want to thank Mrs. Shang for finding the letter for my nephew. Second, I want to ask Mrs. Shang Shilang explained that the old man has already planned to surrender to the emperor and take responsibility for the crimes he committed in the past, but fortunately, the former Minister of the Household Department has passed away and will not be implicated by the old woman."

Shang Shixu was surprised when he heard the words, and asked puzzledly: "Is Uncle Anyang willing to give up his life name for his nephew?"

Uncle Anyang smiled lightly, stroked his beard lightly, and said, "I don't like reading since I was a child, but it's because of the merits of my ancestors that I got this hereditary title. This old man is confused and has done wrong things. I just feel sorry for my nephew..."

When Anyang Bo mentioned to Xu Zhou, he couldn't help crying: "At the beginning, his parents died tragically in the flood because I insisted on going my own way and refused to let the water cross the dam. I raised him by my side and didn't regard him as the only family member. So much attention, because I know that to him, I am the enemy who killed his parents! But I didn't know that he would write such a letter... Now that he died innocently, how can I just sit idly by?"

As he spoke, he took out the letter in his arms, handed it to Shang Shixu and said, "It's not uncommon for Zhang Yiqian and his son to kill each other. Today, I'm going to teach them a truth, which is called revenge." , no matter what price I have to pay, even if it takes my old life, I will fight them to the end!"

Shang Shixu took the letter that Uncle Anyang handed him, and opened the broken letter: My uncle, my lord, I would like to report that my nephew already knew about the events of the past. How dare you talk about hatred lightly, not repaying the kindness of parents is unfilial, not repaying the kindness of raising uncle is not easy, the facts are difficult to balance, the nephew is willing to go to hell, to take this revenge.Respectfully knock on Jin'an, don't read it when you cherish it.

Shang Shixu looked at the signature that had been torn off at the end of the letter, and he realized now that Xu Zhou already knew that it was because his uncle Uncle Anyang refused to open the dam to divert the water, which led to the tragic death of his parents in the flood. For the kindness of his upbringing, he didn't want to seek revenge from his uncle, but as a human being, he could neither revenge his parents nor his uncle, so he chose to die to understand this matter.

Uncle Anyang said slowly: "After Zhou'er finished writing this letter in Ruixiang Tower, he heard Zhang Renhuai molesting the singer Lianxin in the next room, so he rescued him but was killed by Zhang Renhuai. This letter was lost at that time. In Ruixiang Tower. At the beginning, I just died of a nephew. It’s true. For the past eight years, he has been raised under my knees, but I was not afraid for five days. I was afraid that he would retaliate against me after he knew the truth. But Lian Xin, a geisha, saw that the matter was nothing to worry about. She remembered that Xu Zhou asked her to send the letter to Uncle Anyang's mansion before she died that day, but she was just a low-level singer. She didn't dare, so she hid the letter. Unexpectedly, she would meet Zhang Renhuai again, so Lian Xin had no choice but to tear off the signature of the letter and hide the letter. It fell into the hands of the Madam."

Seeing him mention Lin Jingmo, Shang Shixu looked up at Uncle Anyang with precaution.

Uncle Anyang said: "The tiger father has no dog daughter, she is indeed Lin Shangshu's daughter, because some strangers, even if they were whipped in prison, she still has the courage to expose the truth! This old man is really ashamed, It's useless to be someone else's elder. Let me ask you, even Mrs. Shang is willing to seek justice for her nephew, how can I stand by and watch as an uncle?"

Shang Shixu smiled relievedly, and said, "Return the dead with justice, and the living with peace of mind, as it should be."

Uncle Anyang replied: "Today, I want to inform Shang Shilang that the old man has decided to absolve the crime. If necessary, Shang Shilang can present the evidence of the old man's wrongdoing."

Shang Shixu asked puzzledly: "Since Uncle Anyang is already planning to plead guilty, don't you plan to report Shang's threat to you?"

Uncle Anyang shook his head and said with a smile: "If Mrs. Shang hadn't handed over the letter to this old man, this old man would never have known that Zhou'er was so filial to this old man. Where will it go? Although the old man doesn't understand why you would help a villain like Zhang Yiqian, I believe, Shang Shilang, you also believe in justice."
