After I captured the wrong male lead, I broke off the engagement and married the villain

"Who, who is so bold as to instruct you to slander Shen Jing!"

Shen An glanced at the head of the Ministry of Justice with trembling eyes.

The man had a sharp look on his face and raised his eyebrows.

Shen An knew what he meant. If he told anyone about it, his family would be in big trouble.

If Shen Jing is dead, then it's okay.

But now the situation has been reversed. He is still the top scholar and the future vice minister of the Ministry of War. If something like this happened, he would definitely just watch himself die.

"I was bewildered for a moment, so I framed Shen Jingyi. Your Majesty, please forgive me!"

But the emperor was not a fool, so how could he be deceived?

"If you tell me, I will protect the lives of your family members. Otherwise, I will confiscate your family!"

After hearing this, Shen An looked conflicted.

"Think before you speak. After all, His Majesty's kindness is not always there. Do you think everything will be fine if you don't say anything?"

Seeing this, Shen An gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, it's him!"

The head of the Ministry of Justice looked cold: "You are slandering me!"

"He was the one who invited me to drink before and secretly tested me, asking me to frame Shen Jingyi."

At this moment, Shen An has decided to throw the jar into the ground.

"I did everything you said, what else do you want?"

The emperor looked extremely cold: "What do you have to say?"

"Your Majesty, this is Shen An's one-sided statement. How could I do such a thing if I am devoted to the country?"

The person next to him sneered: "Really?"

Just at this time, Shen Jing had been brought up.

He was in a terrible state, with half his body covered in blood, and his previously handsome face was bruised and swollen, a horrible sight.

When the emperor saw this, he became so angry that his face turned blue.

"I dare not. What's going on with Shen Jingyi?"

When the head of the Ministry of Justice saw this, he almost fainted.

How did this guy get beaten like this? Yesterday he only had some minor injuries.

"I didn't expect that the Ministry of Justice would dare to resort to lynching. It's really eye-opening."

Shen Jing understood something at this moment, and immediately knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, I will not admit to anything I did not do, and the head of the Ministry of Justice should give an explanation to the people for abusing private punishment and forcing confessions by torture."

"I am lucky to have come out alive today. If I had met anyone else, I would have died unjustly!"

Hearing this, the emperor picked up the teapot beside him and smashed it down.

He didn't dare to hide and was hit on the head and bleeding.

"I handed over the Ministry of Justice to you to investigate the case and bring justice to everyone. Now you are abusing private punishment. Where do you think I am?"

The head of the Ministry of Justice was so frightened that he knelt down and begged for mercy.

But it was useless. The emperor was furious and ordered him to be executed.

Everyone in the court remained calm, and no one bothered to say anything about not seeing blood during the New Year.

After all...the emperor was really angry.

"Shen Jingyi, I have wronged you, get up quickly!"

Hearing this, he kowtowed and stood up: "Your Majesty is wise. Now that this lawless person has been dealt with, I am grateful."

"Shen An, you have robbed women, killed people and set fires. I cannot let you live. You must die together with me."

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I didn't mean it. Please spare my life!"

He begged loudly for mercy, but was dragged away mercilessly.

Chen Wei standing aside had a dazed look, somewhat incredulous.

"Okay, now that the matter has been investigated, I am relieved. I am sorry for having wronged you these days, Mr. Shen."

"I have no grievances. Your Majesty made a wise decision and has already explained it to me."

Shen Jing had already completely lost her heart to these people.

The servants and cousins ​​around him all wanted him dead, but the court officials just watched coldly.

The emperor was high and mighty, and could decide someone's life or death with just one word.

He was chilled to the bone and understood instantly.

"Let's leave it at that. When you recover from your injury, you can take up your post in the Ministry of War."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

The noisy court meeting finally came to an end.

When leaving, Shen Jing specially thanked the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue.

"Thank you for sending Uncle Wang here, otherwise I really don't know what to do."

Hearing this, the man smiled mysteriously: "You don't have to thank me, sir. There is someone else to thank."

"Oh?"

"This is not my credit. If you want to know, just ask your servant."

Shen Jing was a little strange.

Wuming was detained, so he went to ask.

"It was a man named Li Jin who found out my whereabouts."

Hearing this, Shen Jing was stunned for a moment: "Li Jin? How could it be the Night King's palace commander?"

But no matter what, since the other person saved me, I can't just do nothing.

So he went back and packed everything, and then he made an appointment with Xiao Heyun to meet in a secluded place.

"Mr. Shen, oh no, I should call you Mr. Shen from now on."

Hearing this, Shen Jing stood up and kowtowed: "Thanks to the care of His Highness the Night King, I am still alive. From now on, you can do whatever you want."

His dream of becoming an honest official was shattered a few days ago.

Before life and death, nothing matters.

If he doesn't fight, he will be the one to die.

So what if I am disloyal to Your Majesty?

Your Majesty will only watch from a high position with cold eyes. As for the truth, who would care?

"Master Shen, you are welcome. Please stand up quickly."

Xiao Heyun waved his hand and he stood up.

"When I was in prison, I thought I was going to die, but I didn't expect that the prince would rescue me."

Xiao Heyun said: "Originally, I didn't notice it, but General Nangong begged for mercy at the time, and then I realized something was wrong."

What this means is that half of the credit goes to others.

After hearing this, Shen Jing said, "If there is anything in the future, I, Dingdang, will do my best."

"sit down."

Xiao Heyun asked him to sit down and drink tea, his expression was very calm.

And a little relieved.

The information provided by Nangong Yuan was so accurate that it hit the opponent's weak spot in one fell swoop.

Only in this way can Shen Jing be successfully acquitted.

And that Uncle Wang doesn’t seem to be a simple person either.

In fact, Wang Shushi is Nangong Yuan’s man.

When she thought of Shen Jingyi, she immediately sent people to Huangzhou to look for him.

Fortunately, Uncle Wang had no relatives, so he immediately agreed to come to Kyoto to help.

So Nangong Yuan gave him a shop and asked him to do some small business and wait for the opportunity to come.

But... I didn't expect her to be so accurate.

"After entering the court, there are many things to do, and Master Shen also needs the help of his family."

Hearing this, Shen Jing said: "This is a dangerous place, how dare I ask my relatives to come here."

"In that case, we should also find some reliable guards. I have some useful people around me, I'll give them to you."

Shen Jing accepted it with a smile.

Now he is the target of public criticism and a thorn in the eyes of others. If he wants to survive, he cannot have any self-respect or self-love.

Those are just empty names. What really matters is his life.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. I will accept it."

Xiao Heyun was very satisfied with his cooperation.

At least, it’s not as difficult to talk to as I imagined.

Fortunately, it's all over.
