190 Truth
Back then, Song Yuancheng and the mountain bandits had joined forces and killed all of his clansmen. It was only because he had rejected Song Yuancheng’s invitation that song Yuancheng had not given up. He had made this show to make him work for him.
At that time, Song Yuancheng had promised that as long as the mountain bandits killed all of his clansmen, they would give him countless gold and silver treasures. However, they were also pawns in Song Yuancheng’s hands.
After using them, he would throw them away and tear up the treaty between them. In turn, he put the blame on the bandits and asked Liang Chenghe to kill them. He killed two birds with one stone. In the end, the gold and silver returned to Song Yuancheng’s hands.
When the second-in-charge had escaped, he had brought with him a letter that song Yuancheng had contacted the bandits. The handwriting of the letter was indeed Song Yuancheng’s.
However, he was still worried. He quietly returned to the place where song Yuancheng had hidden some things that could not be known by others to find out the truth.
Song Yuancheng had been doing some heinous things, but he was confident that he would always work for him, so he did not hide it from him. On the contrary, many things were given to him to do, but he had no interest in peeping into song Yuancheng’s secrets. he had never been to the place where he hid things, but that did not mean that he did not know where that place was.
As expected, he found the truth of that year there. Song Yuancheng had a great hobby, and he liked to record the things he had done in a book. In particular, the bigger the matter was, the prouder he would be, and the more he would boast in the paper, he would record the things he could not show off to outsiders.
That book included the pride of killing his clansmen and playing him around. After he read it, he wished he could eat the flesh of Song Yuancheng, that treacherous villain.
However, he still had a trace of reason. He had promised Ming Zhiyan that he would help him, so he brought the evidence of song Yuancheng breaking the law and rushed to Ming Zhiyan overnight.
Hatred flashed across Liang Chenghe’s eyes. He took the book from his chest pocket and handed it to Ming Zhiyan. He said, “These are the records written by Song Yuancheng himself, including everything that he has done since the imperial examinations. Also, a village 20 miles east of the city, his people are there. There’s something you’re looking for.”
Ming Zhiyan took it and opened it with a serious expression. After flipping through a few pages, he closed them all. His face was full of killing intent. He glanced at Liang Chenghe and said a few words before walking away.
Liang Chenghe looked at his back and smiled bitterly. He thought about how he could be so stupid these past ten years. He was so dedicated to working for his enemy that he did not even notice that something was wrong. In the end, he still needed someone to remind him.
If it wasn’t for the fact that he knew about Yan, he probably wouldn’t even have the face to see his clansmen in the afterlife. Song Yuancheng would still be laughing at him for being stupid.
Thinking about the stupid things he had done in the past ten years, he wished he could kill himself and apologize for his clansmen. However, he could not do that now. He still wanted to see Song Yuancheng become a prisoner, lose everything he was proud of, and see him go to Hell. Only then would he have the face to apologize to his clansmen when he reached the afterlife.
When he thought about this, a cold light flashed across his face. He also followed Ming Zhiyan and left.
When he first came to Shifeng County, the Emperor had secretly given Ming Zhiyan a talisman that allowed him to dispatch the garrison troops. At a critical moment, he could dispatch the garrison troops to do things.
Over the years, Song Yuancheng had already taken root in Cairo City. Those forces had already firmly taken control of the entire Cairo City. There were simply not enough people in his county office. Hence, Ming Zhiyan had brought the talisman to the defending army stationed in the Southwest Road. He asked them to come and help him capture all of Song Yuancheng’s people.
