"Then I will help you, whatever you want to say when you see it."
Yu Wenbin knelt down to thank him. He was already prepared. Even if nothing was found out by then, he would retire from the world.
That day, my mansion was turned over by officers and soldiers, and there was no order.
Seeing that nothing was revealed, those who slandered him were anxious on the sidelines.
After searching for a long time, nothing important was found. Just when those people were about to give up, they found public case documents from nowhere.
Written on it were documents for accepting bribes from local officials, and a box of silver and gold was also found.
Then he carried it to the palace in a daze. The emperor glanced at the box and then at Yu Wenbin who was kneeling beside him.
He said angrily, "Don't you always say that you are impartial and selfless? These things were found in your back house. How should you explain it?"
Yu Wenbin was eager to explain to himself, but he found that he couldn't explain it. After all, the evidence had become facts.
But it's just a situation that others deliberately set for themselves.
He laughed heartily, "I see. If you want to take my old life, just take it. Why go to all the trouble, then go ahead."
The emperor was very angry when he saw him like this, "Yu Wenbin, you are not convinced. This evidence was found in your home. How could someone frame you?"
Yu Wenbin glanced at the man next to him, "Your Majesty, I have always done things with a clear conscience all my life. If there is someone who wants to deliberately frame me, why not ask this corrupt official standing next to me."
The official next to him was immediately frightened.
He hurriedly knelt on the ground and explained to the emperor in a hoarse voice, "Your Majesty, don't listen to his words. Take a look at all the evidence that was found in his back house. This person just dragged me into the water. Your Majesty clearly found out.
ah."
The emperor looked at the two of them with raised eyebrows.
Then he sat on the chair and asked calmly, "He said that you accepted bribes, and he has already produced all the evidence that he should have. What about you, you slander others like this for no reason, do you have any conclusive evidence?"
After hearing this, the official kneeling on the ground was full of confidence. He was very careful in what he did, and naturally he would not be caught by others.
Yu Wenbin laughed loudly, and he immediately pulled out several confessions from his collar.
Put all these confessions in front of the emperor's table and spread them out one by one for the emperor to see.
"Your Majesty, this is the confession of his personal bodyguard, and this accusation is irrefutable evidence that he raped women and killed people to vent his anger. These are his hiding places for accepting bribes."
The emperor leaned forward and read the confessions one by one. The more he read to the end, the angrier he became.
The official was stunned, wondering where these things came from.
He hurriedly begged the emperor for mercy, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you must spare me because of my stubbornness for so many years. I am just helping the Emperor to stabilize this world."
Although the current emperor is becoming more and more self-centered, he can no longer listen to any unfaithful words.
But when it comes to things like this, he can still distinguish between right and wrong.
"You said that you were all doing it for my country, so my country still needs you to harm the people. That's nonsense. How dare you not take the lives of the people as your destiny? Don't you take it as the law of my court?"
Then, the emperor issued an order to raid the official's home and several private residences.
Sure enough, I found a lot of things inside.
And some of those things were actually paid tribute to Zhao by the vassal state.
Later, some of Yu Wenbin's disciples all looked for evidence for him to prove his innocence, and he was indeed not guilty.
At this time, South Korea was invading, but Zhao had few available people.
With no other choice, Yu Wenbin, full of grievances, and some others went into battle to kill the enemy in person.
one year later
, he indeed regained the land of Lingnan, but many of his disciples died, and only a few came back in the end.
The Emperor Longyan was delighted.
When he returned to the imperial court, the emperor promoted him to a higher position and gave him the position of right prime minister.
But Yu Wenbin's heart had already been broken.
He has made up his mind, but after helping Zhao Guo regain the land of Lingnan, he will leave the court and return to the mountains and forests.
He did not accept the emperor's summons and told the emperor that he was seriously injured in this battle. After finally recovering from his injuries, he returned to the court. The doctor told him to rest and rest and never worry about national affairs again.
Since he spoke sincerely and showed no sign of displeasure, the emperor had no choice but to agree to his request and let him return to the mountains.
From then on, he stayed in the imperial court for thirty years, living in a sparsely populated place and living a life of paradise.
After hearing what the old man said, Zhao Zhongru felt very emotional.
People in this world are like this. They only know how to cherish what they have now after losing it.
Such a general was so heartbroken by the emperor that he didn't even care about what he loved and went into battle to kill the enemy.
"Junior would like to ask sir for a question. I wonder if he can answer my question."
Yu Wenbin touched his beard and forced back the tears in his eyes.z.br
"It doesn't matter, there are only you and me here. If you have anything to say, just say it."
Zhao Zhongru boldly said, "Senior, if Zhao is in great trouble now, can you go to the front lines to help Zhao in order to achieve great things?"
After he said these words, Yu Wenbin suddenly raised his head and stared into his eyes.
"Answer me, who are you?"
Zhao Zhongru could no longer hide it at this time. The old man in front of him was not an ordinary person. He was also a general who had fought bloody battles to kill the enemy.
So he endured the pain and got up, walked to the side of the bed and knelt down.
"Old sir, please accept the courtesy of the younger generation. The younger generation is none other than the prince of the feudal lord, Zhao Zhongru."
The old man's expression suddenly changed, and he was shocked by the sudden words.
"You are Zhao Xin's son. Why are you here? What is your purpose?"
His eyes suddenly became sharp and alert.
Then he immediately pulled out his sword from the side and put the polished blade in front of his throat.
"Speak quickly, or I will kill you today."
Zhao Zhongru told everything that happened to him.
"Sir, please don't worry, I don't have any ill intentions when I come here.
He came to Lingnan to control floods on the order of His Highness the Crown Prince. As for the things being pulled on the cart, they were pulled from the local county government. This person accepted bribes and has been doing things that are detrimental to Zhao State."
