Reporting to the host, Yuan Chonghuan was a first-class general and offered 8 million taels of silver. Although he was loyal to the Ming Dynasty, he was killed unjustly.
And the method was cruel, so the tribute was doubled to 16 million taels of silver.
"Oh my god! Why is there so much money!"
Zhu Youjian could afford to spend 16 million taels, but if he were to spend it like this, it would indeed make his heart ache.
Just as he was hesitating, the system sent him another message.
If the host can clear Yuan Chonghuan's name and pay respects to him at his grave,
The silver offered was still 8 million, and because Yuan Chonghuan was loyal to the Ming Dynasty, the silver offered was halved.
"Good! I want to avenge Yuan Chonghuan. Overseer Yuan's death was indeed too unjust.
However, since we are in need of manpower, can you let me do this tomorrow and summon Yuan Chonghuan today?”
Yes, please keep your promise. Otherwise, the summoned Yuan Chonghuan will be taken back and the silver will not be returned.
Hearing that the system had agreed to his request, Zhu Youjian hurriedly said,"
"Alright, I will definitely sacrifice to Overseer Yuan according to the standards of the ether prison tomorrow and personally go to his grave."
Just as he said this, Zhu Youjian suddenly remembered that the criminal law Yuan Chonghuan mentioned was a thousand cuts. Moreover, it was said that the people of Beijing had also wrongly blamed Yuan Chonghuan at that time.
When the executioner cut off a piece of meat, someone would buy it with silver and eat it raw.
There wasn't even a corpse, so how could there be a grave?
Just as Zhu Youjian was about to ask the system to stop the summoning, he heard a cold notification from the system.
Summoning begins. Congratulations to the host for obtaining Jiliao Overseer Yuan Chonghuan. Yuan Chonghuan's current identity was his son Yuan Chengzhi.
Because Yuan Chonghuan was killed so tragically, Yuan Chengzhi has already wandered the Jianghu. Whether or not he can be found depends on the host's luck.
He had never expected this! Zhu Youjian actually got such a result.
"Why? System! I've also paid the silver for this consecration. The people who were summoned before all took the initiative to look for me.
Why do you want me to look for him this time? Moreover, this Yuan Chengzhi had already existed before Yuan Chonghuan died?”
Please take note that I have told you before that the appearance of summoned characters is random.
In addition, please do not confuse the characters in novels with historical characters. [Special reminder: Host must pay respects to Yuan Chonghuan's tomb tomorrow.]
"No matter how random it is, it should be the character I summoned that comes to me. Moreover, Yuan Chonghuan didn't have a tomb to begin with, so how could I pay homage to him?”
After a while, the system remained silent. It seemed that the system had already said everything it needed to say. The next step was Zhu Youjian's own business.
Zhu Youjian gritted his teeth and buried his head into the bathtub.
How can I find Yuan Chengzhi and Yuan Chonghuan's grave? Could it be that I'm going to build a grave for him?
In the water, Zhu Youjian's brain was in a state of isolation. This allowed his thoughts to become clearer and he could recall more things.
"Sigh, that's not right. This Yuan Chonghuan has a tomb! Yuan Chonghuan had a cenotaph, and it was in Beijing!”
Just like when Zhu Youjian brought Oboi to the temple of the past emperors, he had some cold historical knowledge.
Zhu Youjian had accidentally flipped through it, so he did not have a clear impression of it.
However, the water in the bathtub helped him remember.
After Yuan Chonghuan was cut into pieces, there was no corpse left. Only one of his personal guards collected his clothes and built a cenotaph in the southern part of Beijing.
From then on, this loyal bodyguard, including his descendants, guarded the tomb until the era before Zhu Youjian transmigrated.
Zhu Youjian vaguely remembered that this family's surname seemed to be She.
Zhu Youjian suddenly jumped out of the water and shouted at a young eunuch, giving the young eunuch a fright.
"Go! Pass it to Lu Xuan!"
"Yes, sir!" The young eunuch responded and quickly ran out.
In the middle of the night, the Jinyiwei Tongzhi Lu Xuan came to Wenyuan Pavilion. Zhu Youjian was waiting for him behind the Dragon Book.
"Minister Lu, I'll have to trouble you. Before dawn, I want you to investigate Yuan Chonghuan's subordinates.
Lu Xuan frowned slightly and said,"Your Majesty, Xuan will definitely try his best to find out. However, it will be difficult to find out before dawn.”
On the way to the palace, Lu Xuan had already begun to calculate what kind of tricks this Lord Wansui had up his sleeve. As expected, in this vast sea of people, finding a person was like finding a needle in a haystack.
Zhu Youjian naturally understood his thoughts and said,"Minister Lu, don't worry. This person should be in the South City area now.
There should be a courtyard, and there should be Yuan Chonghuan's cenotaph near his house.”
Lu Xuan was stunned when he heard Yuan Chonghuan. At this moment, Yuan Chonghuan had not been rehabilitated. According to his nature, he was still a criminal.
In the eyes of the common people, he was a traitor. He was the one who lured Huang Taiji to Beijing.
He was the one who injured Man Gui with the cannon. He was a man who deserved to die ten thousand times.
Someone actually built a cenotaph for him? Then this person must be a traitor!
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will definitely capture this traitor!”
Zhu Youjian waved his hand and said,""Minister Lu, you've misunderstood. Take a look at this. This is what I just wrote.”
Taking a piece of paper from the Emperor's hand, Lu Xuan began to read. The ink on the paper had not dried yet.
It turned out that what was written on this paper was the Emperor's apology to Yuan Chonghuan.
It was written that the Emperor was too anxious and Wen Tiren instigated it, resulting in a huge injustice and killing Zhongliang by mistake.
Zhu Youjian expressed his apology and was willing to erect a monument for Yuan Chonghuan in recognition of his bravery and loyalty. He also granted Yuan Chonghuan the title of Duke of Liao, and his descendants would inherit the title of Commander of Liaodong Wei Capital.
After Lu Xuan finished reading it, he looked at Zhu Youjian in astonishment. He thought to himself, Can such an ironclad case be overturned?
Although he had heard some rumors, including some of the ministers, that Overseer Yuan's loyalty could not protect himself, let alone himself, he was still a person who could not be trusted.
"Your Majesty, this is inappropriate."
"What's wrong?"
"There's no evidence to reverse Yuan Chonghuan's verdict now, and this crime has already been decided by you.
If this imperial edict was passed down, it would definitely arouse the discussion of the ministers and the world.”
Lu Xuan was very smart. He had three meanings in one sentence. Firstly, there was no evidence to prove Yuan Chonghuan's innocence.
Secondly, this is a case set by the emperor himself. It's only been a few years, and you want to overthrow it yourself?
Thirdly, the ministers would discuss it, and the world would be in an uproar.
