The people who were watching looked at the scene in front of them. Many people were pointing and accusing the loyal and brave general of marrying a banshee as his wife.
Otherwise, how could such a good person be so fascinated that even people who died would not even let go of their corpses, just because it scared her.
She was rumored to be the banshee Song Yutong. At this time, she happened to be woken up by the noise coming from outside.
Many people were yelling and cursing at the gate of the General's Mansion. The sound was so loud that it could be heard from almost two streets nearby.
"Why is there so much noise outside?"
Song Yutong opened her eyes and sat up on the bed, her eyes were groggy, with the cuteness of a confused deer.
"It was the noise outside that woke you up. I asked the housekeeper to ask someone to take them away. If you are still sleepy, go back to sleep."
Cheng Hanyan reached out and patted Song Yutong on the shoulder, and then hugged him over.
Song Yutong closed her eyes in a daze, and when she was about to go back to sleep, she heard someone shouting from outside about what a dog official was, and what she said about giving birth to a child with no eyesight, and not accumulating blessings for the child will only give birth to monsters, and she sat up again.
.
Even if you scold her and her husband, why do you scold the children as well?
Who did her child offend? What's more, this was a deliberate conspiracy. Why should she curse her child?
Song Yutong was furious after hearing this, and wished she could put on her clothes immediately and go out to find someone to argue with.
Cheng Hanyan held Song Yutong in his arms and comforted him.
"We didn't do those things in the first place, so don't be afraid of what they say. I'll ask people to pull these people back later. Anyone who scolds them will get a few slaps, so don't worry."
After Song Yutong heard this, he didn't feel much relieved, and even felt a little dissatisfied.
"How long will this situation you guys set up last? Listen to the scoldings of these people outside. If this continues, I will have a baby. What should I do if I can't find a stable wife?"
Song Yutong and Mrs. Feng had already chosen the three stable mothers before, and had agreed that they would come to the house two or three days in advance to help deliver the baby.
As soon as this incident broke out, the three stable women all gave up their jobs.
Mrs. Feng asked for help and went to look for the person. Many stable women refused to agree when they heard that he was delivering the baby for the wife of a loyal and brave general.
No matter how high the money offered, no one would take it.
Of course, it's not that no one is willing to come, but that the people who are really willing to come are not very good at delivering babies, and most of them are new mothers.
"Just wait a few more days. Don't be impatient. I will go to see the emperor tomorrow."
Cheng Hanyan gave his wife a reassurance and finally came up with his own attitude.
Sure enough, after a while, the noisy people outside were immediately dragged away by a group of officers and soldiers.
Even if they cursed a lot of dirty things, the officers and soldiers remembered the person, and when they were brought back to Jingzhao Mansion, these people were more or less punished.
"You bunch of dog officials who protect each other, I will fight with you."
A woman who was beaten became very angry and immediately rushed forward to fight with the governor of Jingzhao.
The governor of Jingzhao didn't check for a while, but the woman actually scratched his paw, and his face turned pale.
"These people are simply unreasonable! Someone please put these people in jail."
"I'm going to file a lawsuit, and I'm going to make all of you lose your hat!"
Many people were making a lot of noise, and with the large number of people, the government officials in Jingzhao Mansion were not enough, so most of them were sent out to patrol.
These people really made a fuss in the entire Jingzhao Mansion, and some even ran out, shouting all the way.
"The dog officer is going to kill people and silence them. Come here, help. The Yin of Jingzhao Prefecture and General Zhongyong are protecting each other. Who will return the justice of our people?"
Because the incident was too big, and other people heard this, they all came to help, blocking the government officials who ran out to arrest these people.
This led to a group of people who really brought the matter to the emperor again.
Prior to this, although I had filed a petition, I still had not seen the emperor's face.
Now the drum of complaint outside the imperial city was beaten, and two or three women were brought into the imperial city and delivered to the emperor.
In the main hall, the emperor sat on the dragon chair and pinched his brows tiredly.
Although he had known for a long time that this incident had caused a commotion in the city, he never thought that this group of people would be so radical and finally came to him.
Not only that, there were also rumors that officials were protecting each other, which affected the reputation of the entire court, and the people in the city also had a lot of dissatisfaction with the emperor.
"Eunuch An, send someone to announce that Jing Zhaofu Yin and General Zhongyong have entered the palace."
Obviously, the emperor was very angry, and every word was full of coercion.
The women kneeling below felt their legs weaken when they heard this majestic voice. They couldn't help but regretted why they made this matter so big and brought it to the emperor.
In any case, it is true that their family took the money and wanted to kill General Zhongyong's wife.
If they were facing someone else, they would still have the heart to defend themselves, but now when facing the emperor, they really felt a little guilty.
"You guys have the guts to file a petition, but have you prepared the petition papers?"
The emperor had a businesslike attitude and waited for the few people below to come up with their complaints.
But I never thought that these women would shake their heads in a hurry.
"Your Majesty, I forgive you. The civilian woman came in a hurry and did not have time to prepare the petition. Today, the civilian woman originally went to the Zhongyong General's Mansion to seek justice for my husband, but she was caught by the officers and soldiers and took him back to beat me. Then she escaped in a hurry and had no time to prepare the petition.
But the women of the people want to tell the governor of Jingzhao and the general Zhongyong to protect each other!"
The woman who took the lead in filing the complaint felt guilty and regretful, but things had come to this point and there was no room for retreat.
Anyway, nowadays, raising one's head is a knife, and shrinking one's head is another knife. It is better to take a gamble and not only save one's life, but also get more compensation.
The woman's eyes were rolling, thinking that no one would notice her little calculation.
But she never thought that the emperor sitting on the dragon throne would have already noticed her little thoughts.
"You said that these two officials are protecting each other. What evidence is there? Since there is no pleading paper, let's write it now, and someone will come with pen, ink, paper and inkstone."
The emperor waved his hand and asked the people below to bring pens, ink, paper and inkstones for these women to write on.
After all, this imperial edict is not so easy to sue.
The woman didn't have the guts to choke after hearing the emperor's words. Now that she was here, what could she not say and why she still had to write a petition?
Although she was dissatisfied, she still let her literate slave help her write.
The remaining two women were trembling with fear and huddled together to keep each other warm.
"What are you two doing standing there, why don't you come over and write the petition."
