Chapter 2192
When passing by those common people, Rong Jiu said calmly: "Before doing things in the future, think about your parents, wives and children at home, and remember to be smart when you go out."

The implication is that there is no further investigation, and the people knelt on the ground one after another, shouting: "The princess is a thousand years old, a thousand years old."

The people are ignorant, easily provoked, and echo what others say.

Rong Jiu did not pursue the case, not because the law does not punish the public.

Rather, besides legal principles, there are always human feelings.

It is not a pity for these people to die, but how should their elderly parents and young children who are waiting to be fed survive.

Especially those innocent and naive children who will bear the crime of their father all their lives, be criticized and even abused, and the descendants of these people who have committed the crime of treason cannot participate in the imperial examination, which is too much for them. It's not fair anymore.

Looking at the innocent little Mi'er, Rong Jiu's heart softened instantly, and if he didn't pursue this matter, it would be considered a blessing for Xiao Mi'er.

Now that the turmoil has subsided, and the city of Yongzhou is prosperous and happy again, Ling Yue suddenly understands why Rong Jiu was not in a hurry to find out those rascals.

Those are just a few low-level scoundrels, and they are still the people of Yongzhou City. If they come out to testify, not only will no one believe them, but they will be bitten back.

It's different now, not only has the rumors been clarified, but also Emperor Ling's conspiracy has been made public. Rong Jiu is still the Ninth Princess praised by everyone, but Emperor Ling may not still be the emperor respected by everyone.

Southern Chu once lived in Xiling to quell the rebellion, but Emperor Ling secretly used these insidious means to stir up trouble, which is really despised by others.

Either Rong Jiu didn't make a move, or Emperor Ling would be ruined if he did.

He Zheng didn't dare to delay, so he sent Xi Ling's detailed confession, as well as the confessions of all the rascals, to Chang'an immediately.

And those common people crusade against Emperor Ling one after another and wrote Wanmin Shu. On the second day, He Zheng sent people to transport boxes to Chang'an.

When this incident spread to Chang'an, the government and the public were outraged. Many ministers asked for orders to send troops to Xiling, and they were about to crush Xiling.

In this peaceful and prosperous age, Emperor Chu did not want to fight recklessly, but he made the matter known to the world and held Emperor Ling accountable.

Emperor Ling was so angry that he vomited blood immediately, and the ministers were even more anxious, fearing that Southern Chu would send troops to attack, they all persuaded Emperor Ling to regard peace as the most important thing.

Seeing those wrinkles piled up on the dragon case like a pile of hills, Emperor Ling was so angry that he vomited blood again.

After waking up, they summoned Ling Yunzheng, Ling Yunzhan, and Ling Yunsu.

Emperor Ling leaned on the dragon couch and asked Ling Yunsu: "If Southern Chu sends troops to Xiling, how sure are you that you will win?"

Several people knew well that Emperor Ling was accustomed to using thunder methods, and he had never succumbed to anyone in his life. It would be harder than ascending to heaven for him to condemn himself.

Therefore, they were not surprised that Emperor Ling asked this question.

Ling Yunsu said truthfully: "In these years, Xiling has fought every year, and just quelled a civil strife. Not to mention that Nanchu has firearms in his hands, if not, Xiling's current military strength and national strength are difficult to resist."

Emperor Ling stared at him like an eagle, "You are the god of war in Xiling, I don't believe there are battles you can't win."

Ling Yunsu said: "The three armies have not yet moved, and the food and grass go first. Now the treasury is empty, the food and grass are not enough, and the soldiers can't eat enough. How can they have the strength to fight?"

Ling Yunzhan was on the side, also said: "What the seventh brother said is true, the only way for now is to rest and recuperate."

Emperor Ling said with a cold expression: "Don't tell me you want me to admit my mistake to Nan Chu, then what's the face of my Ling family?"
