Chapter 448
With Liu'er as a key witness, this complicated son-exchange case became clearer. When Qinhuai sent people to Liu'er's hometown and brought Liu'er back to the capital overnight, it was all in vain despite Yun Yu's sophistry.
.
Qin Huai hated Yun Yu so much that he ignored Yun's pleas and sentenced Yun Yu to ten years of exile in Mobei, three thousand miles away from Beijing.
Mobei is an inaccessible place, and the people living there are either prisoners who committed crimes or the descendants of prisoners. Not only do they have to cultivate wasteland and farm land, and return most of the harvested food to the treasury, they also build fortifications to defend against foreign enemies.
Under all kinds of pressures, even if one successfully survives the three-thousand-mile journey, it is difficult for anyone to survive the ten-year sentence of exile. Unless one is lucky enough to receive an amnesty from the Heavenly Family, there is no possibility of coming back alive, which can be said to be a narrow escape from death.
Xu Dayong failed to report the knowledge and tried to take the blame for Yun Yu, which also violated the criminal law. However, his guilt was much lighter than Yun Yu's and he was sentenced to three years in prison. If he was willing to transfer most of his family's wealth to the national treasury, he would be exempted from prison.
punishment.
Finally, Qin Zhichen, who had not long returned to the Yun family, sold his property and handed it over to the state treasury with the help of his old steward, and took back Xu Dayong from prison, who was haggard and looked like he was dead.
"Aunt...Dad, I can't save my mother, and I can't live without you anymore." Qin Zhichen seemed to have grown up overnight, no, it was Yun Zhichen. He looked at Xu Dayong, with red and swollen eyes, and put a piece of food into his bowl.
Chopsticks: "It will get better. Let's wait for mother to come home."
Who would have thought that in just one month, this arrogant and wanton young man would have learned how to handle things.
The moment he knew that he was not Qin Huai's biological flesh and blood, and that his biological mother had done such evil things, he hated, hesitated, and was afraid. Finally, he accepted his unbearable background and faced everything in the past.
After his chaotic mind was completely clear, he was shocked to realize how ridiculous he had been before.
"Chen'er, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." Xu Dayong was stunned for a moment, and suddenly cried loudly while holding his son who was not as tall as himself: "I'm sorry for you, I'm sorry for your mother, I should have told the truth, I should have said
Came out..."
In this way, your mother will not make the same mistake again and again, which will eventually become irreversible, and the child will grow up ordinary but peacefully in front of them, without having to suffer the strange looks from others, it is all his fault!
"Dad, you are wrong, but the one who is sorry is not me or my mother, but my uncle, aunt, aunt, grandmother, and...cousin." Yun Zhichen corrected Xu Dayong with a complicated expression: "Our whole family is guilty."
"Chen'er..." Xu Dayong was speechless. It was not that he didn't feel guilty towards Qin Huai's family, but this guilt had been in his heart for so many years that he had long lost the ability to understand it.
Now that Yun Zhichen said it directly, he couldn't help but reflect.
"Dad, let's eat. After eating, we will go to my uncle's house to apologize to my uncle." Yun Zhichen twitched the corners of his mouth and showed a smile that was much better than crying: "I also asked my uncle to tell him to escort my mother to Momo.
We might as well take care of the police officers in the north in advance."
He didn't know anything about this kind of thing. It was only after the old steward reminded him that he knew he could do this. If he were still the son of a minister, it would only be for others to bother to please him.
After hearing his words, Xu Dayong finally stopped wallowing in guilt and regret and nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay, daddy eats, daddy eats, you eat too!"
