Chapter 1061

The reason they impeached him was entirely out of the hundred officials' subconscious self-preservation.

Once Gao Yang became Chancellor, they would definitely not have a good life.

Their very lives might even be in danger!

For Wang Zhong, Lu Wen, and the others, this was their only chance.

Once Gao Yang became Chancellor, his position would be almost unshakable, and they would definitely be doomed!

But at this moment, hearing these words from Gao Yang, they realized the matter was not simple.

Wang Zhong frowned, flicked his sleeves, and said, "Lord Gao, say what you will, killing so many people in Suiyang Commandery is truly inexcusable!"

"Now the entire Suiyang Commandery is in chaos; this is all Lord Gao's masterpiece!"

Gao Yang looked at the righteous Wang Zhong and said with a smile, "Old General Wang, have you ever heard of the Baby Nursery?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Zhong frowned and said, "What is a Baby Nursery?"

Wang Zhong didn't know, but these three words made Lu Wen, Yan Zheng, and the others instantly feel as if they were facing a great enemy!

After the Suiyang administration, when the news reached Changancheng, Wu Zhao had said that Gao Yang would also investigate this Baby Nursery on his trip, but at that time, they hadn't paid any attention to it.

Now Gao Yang mentioned it again.

They had a premonition that this Baby Nursery was the key to Gao Yang's killings this time!

What kind of sacred entity was this Baby Nursery that it could make the Living Yama so angry?

Everyone narrowed their eyes, staring at Gao Yang in unison.

At this moment, this included Wu Zhao.

Only at this moment was the reason for Gao Yang's killings revealed!

So the source of everything was actually this Baby Nursery!

Gao Yang met everyone's gaze and said, as if no one else was there, "The so-called Baby Nursery is a special place opened by a local 'Great Philanthropist Liu' specifically to adopt children for free."

"When a great disaster strikes the world and the common people cannot even feed themselves, they can send their young children to the Baby Nursery, which adopts them for free and finds them a good home with a solid family background."

Hearing this, Wu Zhao's phoenix eyes tightened.

Literally speaking, this Baby Nursery was absolutely a great act of kindness!

Wang Zhong, however, said, "Looking at it this way, Great Philanthropist Liu is truly a good person, and the Baby Nursery is a heaven-sent blessing, but what does this have to do with Lord Gao killing people?"

Gao Yang wore a mocking expression, "Indeed, when I first came into contact with it, I also admired this Great Philanthropist Liu, but as I came into contact with more, I discovered something was wrong."

"This Baby Nursery looks like it's doing good deeds, but in reality, it is using the kindness of the common people to commit filthy acts!"

"In the world of Da Qian, there is a widespread belief that the souls of those who die before marriage will bring misfortune to their families, so 'ghost marriages' are popular everywhere to appease those souls who died unexpectedly. This in itself is not illegal, but the problem is that some corpses rot too quickly, and their appearance after death is too terrifying!"

"For ordinary people, this is fine, after all, they are poor and have no choice, but for those great noble families, it is unacceptable. And coincidentally, since the Baby Nursery appeared out of thin air, the children found by these great families for ghost marriages were all strangled, children who had just died."

As soon as these words were spoken.

The pupils of the hundred officials shrank.

Everyone was no longer calm.

Even Lu Wen and Yan Zheng, who had some preparation, were filled with horror.

Could there really be such a horrifying thing in the world?!

Wu Zhao's phoenix eyes changed even more!
