Prosperous Concubine: Black-bellied lord, don't do it

Chapter 267 Everyone Makes Mistakes

Those twenty people couldn't move at all, they could only wait to be slaughtered, they couldn't resist at all.

The scene was full of screams and sword-like fighting, which was extremely miserable.

Seeing this terrifying scene, the common people were all terrified.

And those few people hired by Shangguan Ying had fled long before Shangguan Long came out.

"Go and find out those people who brought them here, and you must not let any arrogant person who provokes the authority!" Shangguan Long shouted angrily.

Those people immediately sent a group of people to search.

The crowd left in a hurry for fear of getting into trouble.

But what happened at the gate of Shangguan's mansion spread through their mouths, and it spread throughout the city in less than an hour.

Although Shangguan Long denied that those people belonged to his family, his eagerness to kill people made many people think that he was killing people to silence them.

"Hey, I didn't expect General Shangguan to be such a sinister and vicious person. I'm so disappointed."

"He also said he didn't know those people. Since he didn't know them, why didn't he send them to Dali Temple for investigation and interrogation?"

"That's right. As an official of the imperial court, wouldn't he know that this kind of thing would be sent to the government for investigation? He killed those people directly, clearly trying to kill them, and feared that those people who were sent for interrogation would ask something that would be unfavorable to him. Come!"

"I don't know what His Majesty thinks, but let this kind of person be a general!"

In the streets and alleys of the capital, conversations like this are almost in circulation.

Among them, the credit of Shangguanying is indispensable.

She spent a little money to get people to take the lead in alluding to Shangguan Long's guilty conscience and killing people, and Shangguan Long's official opponents also added fuel and jealousy, and soon the whole city was talking about it.

This matter soon reached the ears of Emperor Jingwen, and Emperor Jingwen immediately summoned Shangguan Long to the palace to inquire about this time.

"Your Majesty has been wronged. The betting at Jufutang is true, but the assassination is absolutely nonsense. No matter how daring the lower officials are, they dare not do such crazy things at the feet of the emperor!"

Of course, Shangguan Long would not admit to this matter.

He knelt in front of Emperor Jingwen, crying with snot and tears, not to mention how innocent he looked.

When Emperor Jingwen heard him say that the shit-eating was true, his brows were slightly frowned, and he took a few steps back calmly, keeping distance from him silently.

"Since it's not true, why are you so eager to kill him instead of sending him to Dali Temple for investigation?" Emperor Jingwen asked in a deep voice.

Shangguan Long cried bitterly and said: "Wei Chen was so angry at that time, he was bullied to the door of the house, so he got angry for a while, fainted with anger, and directly ordered people to be killed!"

"I did something wrong in this matter, I am willing to accept the punishment, please forgive me!"

Emperor Jingwen said: "The most important thing in this matter is to stop the people's mouths and appease the family members of the deceased. I can't just say a word!"

"Yes, I know that I will go to appease the families of the deceased, and donate 1000 million gold coins to the country to forgive the crime!" Shangguan Long immediately said respectfully.

Emperor Jingwen's eyes lit up, and a smile appeared on his face immediately, "Aiqing, get up quickly, it is inevitable for people to make mistakes, you are bullied, and you can understand it on impulse, as long as you make up for it well."

Shangguan Long heaved a sigh of relief, and kowtowed gratefully: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
