Seeing Zhao Yun enter the court, the secretary at the corner of the hall hurriedly stood up and whispered to the governor, "It's the young master of the Zhao Residence."
The governor nodded and said to Zhao Yun, "I heard that the young master of the Zhao Family is very perceptive and entered the school early. According to the usual practice, he can be exempted from kneeling. "
He first instructed the servants, "Quickly come to the seat." Only then did he have the time to ask, "Young Master Zhao, why did you come to the court so early in the morning?"
Zhao Yun didn't even look at the seat covered with a layer of embroidery brought by the yamen runners. She stood upright and looked at the plaque 'Mirror Hanging High' hanging on the beam in the middle of the hall. For a moment, she didn't know what to feel.
When the governor saw that Zhao Yun was in a daze, he could only cough and ask tentatively, "Young Master Zhao …"
Zhao Yun returned to her senses and took out a piece of complaint paper from her bosom. She said with relief, "The person I want to sue has been written on the complaint. Lord, please examine it clearly."
The secretary took the complaint paper and carefully handed it to the governor.
As the governor unfolded the complaint paper, he muttered in his heart, "He's just a young master. What can he complain about? It's really absurd." After looking at the three lines of words on the paper, his heart jumped three times. When he looked at the few lines again, cold sweat involuntarily seeped out from his forehead. His hands couldn't help but tremble.
The secretary at the side glanced at the words on the paper, and his expression changed drastically. He couldn't help but look at Zhao Yun's delicate and pretty face. However, he saw that Zhao Yun's eyes were shining with a determined light. He couldn't help but be stunned again.
"I can't read the rest of the content …" The governor pondered and gave the secretary a look. Then, he said to Zhao Yun, "This is a serious matter. You must study it carefully. Young Master Zhao, this matter can't be made public for the time being. Please come to the back office to discuss it in detail. "
Zhao Yun's heart softened. She couldn't help but think, "He's my father after all …" Then, she followed the governor into the back office.
As soon as they entered Virtuous Gathering Residence, a maidservant had already served them fragrant tea.
As the governor invited Zhao Yun to take a seat, he said, "Young Master Zhao, please have some tea first. Let's talk slowly."
Zhao Yun casually took a sip of tea and put down the teacup. She composed herself and forced herself to be calm. "I've already written everything on the complaint. Please be impartial, Your Excellency … "His voice came to an abrupt halt as his body slumped onto the table.
When Zhao Yun woke up, the first person she saw was Zhao Lianghui. She blurted out, "Father!"
Zhao Lianghui frowned and slapped the edge of the bed. "Don't call me father! You've already gone to the authorities to sue me for murder and arson. Why are you still calling me father? "
Only then did Zhao Yun realize that she was lying on her own bed. For a moment, she was baffled and asked blankly, "Why am I here? Where is Milord? "
"Sigh." Zhao Lianghui let out a long sigh. "What a silly child. Why is she still so young? Yun'er, Father understands. You don't want Father to kill more people. However, no one can stop what God has arranged. Those people from Ming Xin Escort Agency are destined to die. Even if the authorities really arrest Father, you won't be able to save them. "
Zhao Yun's brows were in a mess. She exclaimed, "You, you still killed them in the end!"
"I didn't kill them. It was God who killed them!" Zhao Lianghui's expression turned solemn. "It's like you're hoping that the governor will arrest me, but God wants me to be free and unfettered."
"How can you be like this? So deranged?" Zhao Yun felt even more grief in her heart. It was only at this moment that she truly recognized the man who had loved her dearly for eighteen years.
"You're talking like a child again. Yun'er, although I haven't read many books, I know very well that the words in the books are all written to deceive the common people. They're all killing methods used to deal with the enemy. If you can't even understand this point, then you've read so many books for so many years in vain. "
Zhao Lianghui's words were sincere and earnest, and the anger in his heart gradually dissipated. "Father's heart really broke into pieces when you went to complain this time. Even when I was in poverty back then, I didn't feel so miserable and depressed. Sigh, Yun'er, Father knows that you were confused for a moment. Think about it carefully again. Your mother is personally cooking right now to make lotus seed calming soup for you. She'll probably bring it over soon. Don't disappoint her painstaking efforts. "
Before leaving, Zhao Lianghui suddenly turned his head and looked at Zhao Yun with his old eyes full of affection. He suddenly sighed again and closed the door, gradually sending the sound of his footsteps into the distance.
Zhao Yun raised her head and looked at the curtain painted with elegant lotus flowers. Amidst the sadness and weakness, there was a sense of pride and heroism. "Even if the Grand Magistrate of Yi Yang County protects you, I don't believe that there's no justice in this world. Although you're my father, you're the executioner who took away many innocent lives! I definitely can't let you get away with it! Father, I'll go to the execution ground with you. Let's be father and son again on the road to the netherworld. "
Three days later, Zhao Yun saw an opportunity and secretly slipped out of Zhao Manor. Looking at the package that hid a pile of gold, Zhao Yun felt helpless again. "In the end, I can't get rid of my relationship with him. I hate his money, but I have no choice but to use this money for traveling expenses. Isn't this the biggest joke in the world? "
The journey was calm and peaceful. Twenty-two days later, Zhao Yun arrived in front of the gate of Mingyu Province's Provincial Governor's Manor and once again sounded the drum in her heart.
"Dong dong dong, dong dong dong!"
Each sound was louder and more confident than the last. The world was bright and clear, and the universe was turbulent. Zhao Yun definitely didn't believe that the person who claimed to be her father could hide the truth from the masses.
When the Provincial Governor solemnly finished reading Zhao Yun's complaint, his face became increasingly stern. He asked coldly, "You said that you're Zhao Lianghui's son? You want to sue your own father? "
Zhao Yun nodded and said, "That's right. My father committed a heinous crime. I can't bear to see him continue to commit crimes. However, Governor Yiyang deceived Qu You. Therefore, I'm suing the Provincial Governor's Manor, begging the Provincial Governor to quickly bring him to justice. "
"Hehe." The Governor suddenly sneered. "Your words are really dignified and righteous. You're trying to erase your own crime." He suddenly threw the token in front of Zhao Yun and shouted, "Come, beat this evil creature 30 times with the paddle first!"
A group of yamen runners stepped forward like wolves and tigers. Without any explanation, they pressed Zhao Yun to the ground. They even fiercely pressed down on Zhao Yun's shoulders with their big hands.
Zhao Yun raised her head with difficulty and said proudly, "When did I want to absolve myself of my crime? Even if I were to die right now, I would have no regrets. I only hope that before I die, I can see the Provincial Governor arrest my father and bring him to justice. "
"You evil creature! You sinner of a famous sect! Until now, you still don't know how to repent. Instead, you're talking big. You're really crazy! " The Provincial Governor slammed the table fiercely. His beard and hair stood on end. He became increasingly angry. "You can be considered to be familiar with the books of the saints, but you're doing things that are worse than pigs and dogs. You've really lost the face of all scholars!"
Zhao Yun's heart skipped a beat. Suddenly, a sense of absurdity surged in her heart. However, she still stubbornly raised her face. "Zhao Yun will never accept the crime that the Provincial Governor imposed on me!"
