Concubine's poisonous plot

Chapter 37 Aren’t you ashamed?

King An was choked and had nothing to say.

Then, the emperor sneered and looked at the ministers who were jumping up and down just now.

"You keep saying that the Crown Princess should not be disrespectful to her elders and should not be greedy for money. But do you know that her aunt left a handwritten note before she died? The property belongs to her! And she directly donated half of this property to the national treasury. You guys, a bunch of royal humiliators, are spitting here and there, asking me to punish a bride who gave generously to me, where are your faces?"

Su Wenshan raised his head in shock and looked at the emperor on the dragon throne with eyes full of disappointment.

King An didn't have time to adjust his expression, the shock was directly on his face.

Those ministers who thought they had mastered justice just now were silenced by the statement that half of their property would go to the national treasury, and no one dared to speak out.

The sudden silence in the court made the emperor find it funny.

"It is really a strange thing in the world for a woman to take back what belongs to her and be slandered by a group of people like you who are in high positions and who are supposed to plead for the people. Su Hou, please tell me, I have sent you a message these days. In the inventory of people's property, is there even the slightest mistake in counting your original property as Shu's property?"

Su Wenshan's back was sweating and his scalp was numb.

He felt as if his ears were buzzing.

Everyone understood that donating half of Shu Yunzhao's net worth to the national treasury was a great contribution to the emperor, the court, and Daxia.

But she didn't say anything in advance, and the emperor also cooperated in a low-key manner, but they were all encouraged by Su Wenshan, and here they criticized her with high spirits, saying that she was unfilial, that she was obsessed with interests, that she had forgotten her roots...

The key is that the emperor emphasized that Shu left a handwritten note before his death, and those properties were originally given to Shu Yunzhao.

Over the years, Shu Yunzhao has not been in direct charge, but has been managed by people from the Su family. The Su family has certainly never told Shu Yunzhao about the benefits of this.

Just now, Su Wenshan himself admitted that among the properties that the emperor helped liquidate, he did not take advantage of the Su family at all...

The faces of all of them were badly beaten by the whirling slaps.

"The censor has the responsibility of supervising and prosecuting, which I cannot blame, but you have completely put the cart before the horse, failed to find out the truth of the matter, and almost turned a man who has done great service to the country into a person who is despised by everyone. What prestige do you still have in the future? Standing in that position, wouldn't you feel uneasy about your conscience?" The emperor first operated on the censor.

Su Wenshan was horrified when he heard this. Although he had not personally taken charge of the Shu family's property in recent years, the Shu family was able to single-handedly help the border pass through the food crisis, and later brought so many things into the Su family. This amount must not be small. watch for.

The other supporting ministers also felt their faces burning. Shu Yunzhao had already planned it, and a big slap was waiting there. They thought they had dominated the imperial court for many years, and they even took the initiative to slap him in the face.

The emperor looked at King An and then at Su Wenshan.

These two people really disappointed him. One was the instigator behind the scenes, the other was the promoter who followed the crowd, one was a father-in-law, and the other was a biological father. This is what makes people laugh.

When the atmosphere in the court was oppressive and breathless, a chamberlain came to report that Prince An had something to say.

King An was stunned again. This boy has been doing well alive for many years. He has never interfered with the government affairs. Now he has learned how to be a stranger?

I don't know why, but Su Wu, who had not recovered yet, seemed to feel a chill running down his back while standing in the queue.

The emperor asked his chamberlain to pass Xiao Jinyao's letter over, and then unfolded it and read it.

His already serious expression became a little darker.

"Where is Su Wu, a foreign minister from the Ministry of Industry?"

The emperor's deep voice was obviously more worried than before.

Su Wenshan and Su Yuan both trembled in their hearts, thinking that something bad must have happened yesterday.

Su Wu was already numb at this time, and the roaring sound in his head never stopped.

"I'm here..."

He walked out of the queue and knelt in the hall from a distance.

Due to his official position, he was originally at the back of the team.

The emperor threw Shang Shu directly to the ground, and the shocked ministers also knelt on the ground.

"Emperor calm down!"

Su Wenshan closed his eyes and gritted his teeth, thinking about what this rebellious girl must have done.

Su Wu could no longer control himself, and his body was already trembling.

"Prince An is suing you for forcing your way into the prince's courtyard yesterday, forcing the imperial concubine to let go of your wet nurse and her family. In recent years, your wet nurse and her family have controlled one of the shops left by the Shu family. When I was young, I was often disrespectful. You uttered arrogant words about the unlimited number of concubines, which made the prince angry and caused old illnesses. What crime should you be guilty of!"

Of so many words, the most important thing is the last sentence, which caused the prince to suffer from an old illness.

Su Wu's body no longer had any strength to support him. He wanted to defend himself: "Back to the emperor, I just went to ask the sixth sister to show my kindness..."

The emperor said indifferently: "My hand, what do you want the Crown Princess to carry?"

Su Wenshan closed his eyes. From the emperor's words, he knew that the emperor was completely on Shu Yunzhao's side in this matter.

The ministers also lowered their heads and looked at each other, with the same expression in their eyes.

The emperor emphasized again: "Didn't Su Hou write the divorce document himself? I have helped the imperial concubine to revise the jade certificate. She has changed her name to Shu Yunzhao, and even her surname has been returned to you. Don't say that you are a rebellious woman and that you are a rebellious woman. The sixth sister coerced her and let her go. It was you who threatened her with your previous identity. If you had known this, why bother? As for the property left by the Shu family, I would like to ask, the dowry of the main wife, the real man can't If you interfere, won’t you feel more embarrassed if you touch my concubine’s property?”

After the emperor finished speaking, Su Wenshan breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, the emperor still cared about the Su family's previous achievements.

On Shu Yunzhao's side, it was because of the documents he gave and the half of the property donated to the treasury that the emperor would definitely help her this time.

"What the Emperor said is that I am ashamed..." Su Wenshan changed the subject directly.

In order to give an explanation to the helping ministers, he added: "Before, I was angry for a while and did not explain it clearly to everyone, which led to many misunderstandings. Please don't blame them. All the blame should be borne by the emperor." I will bear it all alone..."

What he said really made those who had been ridiculed just now have no complaints.

The emperor glanced at him sideways and asked, "Su Hou, according to your opinion, how should you punish the Fifth Young Master for his mistakes?"
