Palace of Heavenly Purity.
Qi Jiguang waited alone in the main hall with an uneasy expression.
The thought of meeting the Emperor made his heart restless.
The Emperor!
That was the highest ruler of the Great Xia Dynasty, the Emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty!
He was just a nobody. He had never thought that he would actually be able to receive an audience with the Emperor.
Even though this emperor was not highly regarded by the people and many people said that he was a fatuous emperor, he was still an emperor.
Before coming to the Palace of Heavenly Purity, Feng Zhong had helped Qi Jiguang change into a set of ordinary clothes, and the wounds on his body had also been simply bandaged by the imperial physician.
At this moment, Qi Jiguang looked tall and burly, with a straight back and an extraordinary aura.
"The Emperor has arrived!"
Just as Qi Jiguang was letting his imagination run wild, a voice like that of a drake sounded.
Qi Jiguang immediately lowered his head and waited for the emperor to come in. He knelt down and said loudly,"Sinner Qi Jiguang kowtows to the emperor. Long live my emperor!”
Now, Qi Jiguang had been relieved of his military post, and he was still a sinner, so he called himself a sinner.
If he was a hypocrite, he might have personally helped Qi Jiguang up to show his closeness.
Zhao Zheng was also very hypocritical!
However…
Zhao Zheng did not do so.
Because there was no need to.
As the emperor, he had personally ordered Qi Jiguang to be rescued from the big boss and met Qi Jiguang. It was already excessive favor. If he went over to help him, it would be his own fault.
"Rise!"
Zhao Zheng sat on the main seat and said.
"Thank you, Emperor."
Qi Jiguang stood up.
Zhao Zheng started to size up this future famous general.
Seeing that Qi Jiguang was a little nervous and didn't even dare to raise his head and kept staring at the ground, Zhao Zheng smiled and said,""Don't be nervous…Come, sit down.”
Immediately, a eunuch brought over a small stool.
"Thank you, Emperor!"
Qi Jiguang hurriedly thanked him again and then sat on the stool with half of his body tensed up.
Zhao Zheng didn't try to persuade him anymore. He smiled and said,"Qi Jiguang, if I remember correctly, you're also a descendant of the Martial Meritocrats, and your grandfather is the loyal and filial uncle beside the Great Ancestor?”
Feng Zhong had told Zhao Zheng all this information.
Hearing Zhao Zheng's words, Qi Jiguang was moved and said,"Yes, emperor, the sinner is the sixth generation of unfilial descendants of Zhongxiao uncle.”
The hereditary system of the Xia Dynasty's nobility would decrease with each generation. If the descendants could not make contributions, the nobility would only decrease.
For example, Shangguan Wan 'er's ancestor, Shangguan Xiong, was a founding hero and was conferred the title of Duke of Wei. However, when it was passed down to Shangguan Wan' er's father's generation, he no longer had a title.
Qi Gongcheng was an Earl, so it was naturally impossible for him to be passed down to the sixth generation.
"Zhen has already heard about your matter.”"Don't worry, I will definitely uphold justice for you!" Zhao Zheng sighed.”
Instantly, Qi Jiguang's eyes turned red. He knelt down and said,""Sinner, thank the emperor for your kindness!"
"Get up and talk." "I called you here because I want to know the details of this matter. You have to tell me the truth."”
"Sinner, obey."
Qi Jiguang stood up and began to explain,"
" The incident happened three days ago. When the sinner returned from work, he found his home in chaos. His mother was unconscious on the ground, and his wife had hanged herself…"
Hearing Qi Jiguang's explanation, Zhao Zheng finally understood what was going on.
This case wasn't complicated. It was just a few young masters who had drunk at Yi Hong Brothel in the afternoon. After coming out, they wanted to have some fun. In the end, they accidentally saw Madam Qi. She was a little beautiful, so they mustered up their courage and rushed into Qi Jiguang's house.
Qi Jiguang's mother wanted to stop him, but she was pushed in the chaos and fell to her death.
Madam Qi couldn't bear the humiliation and chose to hang herself.
When Qi Jiguang returned, he could only see the corpses of his mother and wife…
Any hot-blooded man would go crazy over such a thing.
Qi Jiguang finally confirmed the murderer by asking the neighbors.
There were three murderers!
They were the second son of Minister Lu, the second son of Minister Zhang, and the youngest son of a director of the Ministry of Personnel.
They were all officials of the second generation.
The mastermind was the youngest son of the head of the Ministry of Official Personnel Affairs!
Qi Jiguang, who had gone mad, immediately went to find the murderer for revenge. Coincidentally, he met the second son of Minister Lu on the street and immediately made a move.
With Qi Jiguang's strength and skills, the result was self-evident when dealing with a hedonistic son who had been hollowed out by wine and sex.
Under Qi Jiguang's impulsiveness, he killed him on the spot.
Then, they were discovered and arrested by the constables who rushed over.
Of course, Qi Jiguang was arrested by the constables because he didn't want to hurt the innocent.
Not long after Qi Jiguang was locked up in prison, he was tortured to force him to confess…
……
Qi Jiguang's entire body trembled after he finished talking.
A seven-foot-tall man had tears streaming down his face.
After Zhao Zheng heard this, he was also burning with anger.
"Qi Jiguang, don't worry, I plan to personally interrogate this case. I will not let anyone who is guilty escape!”
Actually, Zhao Zheng was angry not because these people were twisting the truth.
Zhao Zheng had experienced the internet era before he transmigrated. What kind of bad cases had he not heard of?
These people's methods were far inferior to those deranged, despicable, and shameless people on Earth.
Zhao Zheng was angry because these people had almost forced his general away!
According to the original plot, Qi Jiguang was saved by someone when he was about to be executed. Then, by " coincidence ", he joined the main character.
If Zhao Zheng hadn't read the memorial seriously today, perhaps Qi Jiguang would still be like the original plot.
