The regent's little Jiaojiao is so troublesome

Chapter 716

At this time, Lu Yuan, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, said, "Your Majesty, General Bai had reported that the garrison of Pingnan City was killed in the tsunami before, and asked the imperial court to send a new garrison to Pingnan City for disaster relief."

How could Emperor Chu remember these things, and immediately asked: "Who was sent there at that time?"

Feng Zixuan, Minister of the Ministry of Officials: "Your Majesty, Jiang Liang was in charge of disaster relief before, why don't you bring Jiang Liang who is in the prison up for interrogation."

Emperor Chu frowned and remained silent.

At this time, Nan Xiang said: "Your Majesty, I heard that you are holding a celebration banquet. I'm afraid it's too late to investigate these matters of accountability at this moment. Fortunately, I still have a piece of evidence here to prove that you are innocent. General's innocence."

Said, Nan Xiang took out another thing from the bag.

This time, it was not a booklet, but a piece of cloth.

To be precise, it is not a piece of cloth, but countless pieces of cloth, which look like a patched piece of clothing.

Nan Xiang unfolded the piece of cloth: "Your Majesty, this is an ordinary piece of cloth, but on this piece of cloth, the innermost thoughts of the people in Pingnan City are written.

They were very sad when they heard that the emperor had thrown General Bai into prison and executed him at a certain date. They heard that I was going to Beijing, so they spontaneously gathered overnight to report the situation of their own family and General Bai's help to them. It's all written on this piece of fabric.

They said, if this is not enough to prove the innocence of General Bai, they are willing to bring their family and children to Beijing together to prove the innocence of General Bai in front of the emperor. "

Nan Xiang did not present the piece of cloth, but held the piece of cloth with both hands, walked slowly on the field, and told everyone the story written on the piece of cloth while walking.

Every story is simple and unpretentious, but touching.

Bai Yingying was a little moved when she heard that, she looked sideways at Chu Tianci, approached him, and asked in a low voice: "Husband, are these true?"

Chu Tianci had no expression on his face, but his voice was extremely gentle: "It's almost the same as the truth."

As soon as Bai Yingying heard it, she knew that there must be Chu Tianci behind this matter.

Although her soul is not the daughter of the Bai family, in name, he did all this for her, but not all for her.

There was a dignified and upright spirit about him that she couldn't help but admire in her heart.

Everyone on the field was attracted by these stories, and those of the Feng family who still wanted to find fault had nowhere to speak.

When the cloth of petitions from hundreds of families was passed to Emperor Chu, Emperor Chu looked down and saw that the handwriting on it was different, some were crooked, some were neat and neat, it could be seen that they were all made by different people.

Some of the above stories are ordinary and some are thrilling, but no matter which one, they all record Bai Xu's boundless love for the common people as a side general.

Whether it was to win people's hearts or to meet the needs of a wise and benevolent emperor, at this moment, Emperor Chu could only compromise and release Bai Xu from the prison.

Emperor Chu held the cloth with both hands, covering his entire face. When the cloth was taken off, Emperor Chu's eyes were moist.

The eunuch at the side quickly handed over a handkerchief.

Emperor Chu took it with his hand and wiped his eyes: "I never imagined that my Southern Chu would have such a soldier for the country and the people. With a heart for the country and the people, I have to give him a chance to make up for his mistakes."

Even though he had to compromise, as the emperor, Emperor Chu would never admit his fault.
