Shen Xi doesn't care about the rules of the game in the court.If you want to use him as a pawn, he is definitely the most uncontrollable pawn.After Shen Xi left, he went home directly. Although there was still some time before get off work, he didn't have time to worry about such trivial matters.Because of avoiding suspicion, Shen Xi cannot participate in the investigation of the case, but it does not mean that he will do nothing.There will be a tough battle tomorrow morning, and he has to prepare in advance.

When Shen Xi entered the room, Qiao Ke was drinking porridge.Qiao Ke put down the spoon and was about to get up, when Shen Yu hurried over and sat down: "It's delicious."

"I came back earlier today than in the past." Qiao Ke sat down and continued to drink porridge, "Did the prisoner give any clues?"

"I'm hungry after a busy day." Shen Xie poured a glass of water, "Pinhui, let the kitchen prepare meals. We won't eat with everyone today."

Pinhui went to do it immediately.With half a bowl of porridge left, Qiao Ke moved in front of Shen Yu: "Why don't you fill your stomach first?"

"You eat, I'm not so hungry yet." Moving the porridge back, Shen Hao said seriously, "Let's chat while eating. Do you know the situation of those people in the palace? Tell me clearly, I always feel that today’s matter has nothing to do with them.”

Who are those in the palace?Qiao Ke drank the porridge and said: "Actually, their affairs are not a secret. There are many rumors in the streets and alleys. First of all, the Supreme Emperor, he is the elder brother of the Su family, ranking third. At the beginning, the Su family sent him into the palace. Unexpectedly He was able to win the favor of the late emperor. He entered the palace at the age of 15 and was favored by the late emperor for ten years. Unfortunately, the late emperor passed away in No.11, when he was already a queen."

From one of the many people in the harem to the position of queen, and then ascended to the throne of God, he is now the Supreme Emperor.Shen Hao felt that this brother from the Su family knew how to measure, and knew when to enter and when to retreat.So you can live better than anyone else.

"The current emperor is not born of the Supreme Emperor." Qiao Ke wiped his mouth after eating the porridge, "There were several princes who ascended the throne before the emperor, but they were removed not long after. The Supreme Emperor ascended the throne at the age of 42 and took it back in the same year The emperor who is far away in the fiefdom. Naturally, many people objected to the Supreme Emperor's ascension to the throne, but I don't know what the Supreme Emperor did, and those people changed their attitudes in the end."

Although Shen Hao was curious about how the Supreme Emperor managed to convince everyone, but how those secrets would be spread out, the outside world knew nothing but speculation.Shen Hao poured a glass of water and handed it to Qiao Ke. Ever since he learned that Qiao Ke was pregnant, all the tea in the room has been replaced with boiled water.

Qiao Ke took the water with a smile: "The Supreme Emperor has been on the throne for ten years, and he personally taught the emperor. In the 11th year, the Supreme Emperor abdicated to the emperor. Since then, he has lived in the harem and ignored political affairs. After the emperor ascended the throne, he did not make the princess a queen, but married Su The daughter of the family canonized as the queen. The queen gave birth to the fourth prince, who is the current prince. Because of the queen's canonization, the third prince who was originally a descendant became a concubine."

In other words, the mother and concubine of the third prince was the main concubine when the emperor was the prince.If it hadn't been for a daughter of the Su family, the third prince would be the most qualified person to be the prince.Just because of the Su family's daughter, the fourth prince was named the prince according to the lineage, and after the queen's death, the emperor did not canonize the queen again.In this way, no matter whether it is the third prince or the fourth prince, the situation is very embarrassing, no matter what.

After taking a sip of water, Qiao Ke continued: "The Lord Liu has been raised by the Supreme Emperor since he was a child. The emperor respects the Supreme Emperor very much, so he will not be bad to the Lord Liu. Many people speculate that the Emperor Liu is interested in Lord Liu's aptitude and plans to train him. Lord Liu is the next emperor."

The emperor first made the Su family's daughter a queen, and then doted on Liu Wengzhu who grew up beside the Supreme Emperor.There is nothing wrong with picking out these two things alone, but there is something wrong with the two things together.In particular, Liu Wengzhu participated in politics as a brother, which was a power that other Wengzhu did not have.There are always some shady secrets behind excessive preference, Shen Xi thought, the emperor does not know Oedipus...

If the emperor had an Oedipus plot, things would make sense.And the relationship between the prince, the third prince, and the sixth prince became more awkward.It is impossible for brothers and sisters to respect each other. The entanglements of the previous generation make each of them in a situation where they can't go up or down.After the emperor is no longer standing, the prince will always be the orthodox heir.The emperor favors Lord Liu, and may do unexpected things.And the third prince...

The mother and concubine of the third prince now has the highest status in the harem, even though she has not been canonized, she has the real power of the empress.In the end, they were afraid that they would fight to the death. No one had the perfect identity, and anyone could take that seat.So they are all enemies...

"Whether it is the prince, or the third prince and the sixth prince, they are very popular among the people." Qiao Ke said their characteristics one by one, "The prince is kind and kind by nature. The lord's light is a little dim. The third prince is radiant, he has made countless contributions, and his own talents and learning abilities are all first-class. The sixth lord does not give up, elegant and noble, and petitions for the people."

From what happened with Prince Xi last time, it can be seen how popular the third prince and the sixth prince are among the people.As a result, the crown prince's position will be lost sooner or later.But the prince did nothing, as if quietly waiting for that moment to come.The prince treated his brothers and sisters very kindly, and made no enemies in the harem.The benevolence of the prince spreads all over the world, even if he does not become a prince, he will be loved by the people.

"Jing Zhaoyin..." Qiao Ke glanced at Shen Yu and said, "Jing Zhaoyin belongs to Lord Liu. No matter what the truth is, he has already stood on the opposite side of us. Perhaps the mastermind behind it is the third prince or someone else. If Liu Lord Weng intends to protect Jing Zhaoyin, so..."

"We are the enemy." Shen Xi has no pressure on this, he is not Shen Bufan, and naturally he is not on the same level as Liu Wengzhu.Jing Zhaoyin is a member of Lord Liu, how could Lord Liu not protect him without conclusive evidence?If you don't protect it, it will make other people chill and lose their hearts.

However, Jing Zhaoyin cannot absolve himself of the responsibility for such a major incident within the jurisdiction.It wasn't one or two people, let alone dozens of people, but hundreds of people. Could it be that Jing Zhaoyin didn't notice it at all?Shen Hao is sure that Jing Zhaoyin knows something, and whether he is an accomplice remains to be investigated.In short, the emperor will not let Jing Zhaoyin go tomorrow morning, and he will not let Jing Zhaoyin go.He wants to put heavy pressure on Jing Zhaoyin...

Lying on the bed at night, Shen Xi looked at the sleeping faces of his son and Qiao Ke with infinite gratitude and joy.Luckily Joe is alright...

The next day, morning.Civil and military officials stood on both sides, Xuan and Digao sat on top, Jing Zhaoyin knelt in the middle and carefully reported yesterday's casualties: "Fifty-three civilians were killed and six were injured. A total of 53 monks in Baiyun Temple, including the abbot, died. A large number of forests were burned, many places in the temple were destroyed, and the losses were heavy. One hundred and five bandits were wiped out, and one was captured alive."

A series of figures were clearly listed, and the people present finally understood how terrible the case yesterday was.

There was silence in the hall, and everyone was so shocked that they didn't know what to say.At this time, Shen Xie stood up: "Report to the emperor, I have something to say."

Shen Xi's words broke the silence, and Xuan and Di Zhun played.Shen Xi saluted, then walked to Jing Zhaoyin's side, and looked over indifferently: "Master Hu said that the murderer is a bandit. Have you ever seen a bandit who committed suicide at the foot of the emperor and committed suicide after being surrounded? Those are clearly well-trained Killer. Master Hu, it’s not just a few people, but hundreds of people. As Jing Zhaoyin, don’t you know anything about it?”

Master Hu was startled, and hurriedly bowed his head and shouted for grievances: "Your Majesty, I really don't know. I don't know where they come from..."

"You don't know?" Shen Yan sneered, "You mean these more than 100 people fell from the sky, appeared in Baiyun Temple out of thin air, and appeared in your jurisdiction, Mr. Hu? Before this happened, didn't one There is no warning when people find something is wrong? There are more than 100 people, these people want to eat and drink, how could they pop out suddenly! They must have their origins!"

"Chen, I really don't know." Master Hu leaned down even lower, "Maybe they rushed here in the middle of the night..."

"Lord Hu, you are an official of the imperial court." Shen Yu squatted down and said coldly, "Do you believe it yourself when you say this? Even if they rush here in the middle of the night, there must be a source. Near the capital, don't you Didn't they leave any clues behind? Or did you, Mr. Jing Zhaoyin, cooperate with others and let them go on purpose? 89 people died, Mr. Hu, can your conscience be at ease?"

"This matter really has nothing to do with me." Master Hu knelt on the ground and shivered, "I really don't know anything."

"Master Shen." Zheng Xi, the lord of the six elders, stood up, "The matter has not yet been settled. You can't solve the problem with such persecution..."

"Shut up!" Shen Xi raised his head and stared at Zheng Xi coldly.Everyone was stunned by Shen Xi's words, that is the majestic master...

Shen Xi stood up and approached Zheng Xi step by step.Everyone dared not show their anger, and some timid people took a step back.

Standing in front of Zheng Xi, Shen Xi said in a cold tone: "He belongs to you, Liu Wengzhu, and he keeps ignorant of things within the scope of his duties. Tell me, how did he become Jing Zhaoyin? More than 100 killers , Dare to wash Baiyun Temple with blood today. Who can guarantee that he will not appear in the city, the palace, or more killers in the future. Is it because he doesn’t know that he can be fooled? Or is it that Liu Weng is responsible? Lord, are you going to bear it? Let those dead people and their families come to you to settle accounts?"

Looking at the strange Shen Yu in front of him, Zheng Xi never thought that they would become what they are now.This man who was angry for others was no longer the Shen Bufan he knew, no longer the Shen Bufan who regarded him as everything.Zheng Xi turned around and bowed to Emperor Xuanhe: "Father, the matter has not been clarified, so don't jump to conclusions based on guesswork. My son implores Father to give Master Hu a chance to make him a crime and a meritorious service."

"Chen Zuo, please send Mr. Hu to prison!" Shen Yu immediately cupped his hands and said, "Because the truth of the matter is unknown, we cannot let anyone related to the case go. Whether Mr. Hu is guilty or not, the Criminal Ministry will naturally investigate Be clear."

"This matter is not allowed." Lord Xiao, Minister of the Ministry of Criminal Affairs, stepped forward, "Although Mr. Hu has committed negligence, he can still make meritorious deeds. How can Mr. Shen put Mr. Hu in jail for his own guessing? What do you need the law for?"

Shen Xi glanced at Master Xiao lightly, and sneered.He turned around and faced Master Xiao: "Do you all agree with Master Xiao? Since you agree with Master Xiao, please tell me. If what I worry about really happens, who will be responsible? Lord Liu? Master Xiao? Or... ...Which one of you adults? By the way, Lord Xiao, you have interrogated the prisoner all night, have you got any clues?"

Every official who was stared at by Shen Hao bowed his head, not daring to take responsibility.Master Xiao felt guilty and lowered his eyes: "It will take some time..."

"It will take some time? Hahahahaha." Shen Hao smiled unceremoniously, "Do you know what will happen if you delay for one more day? So many people have died, and the whole capital is in panic. If you don't hurry up to investigate the case, you Are you not afraid of public anger? Why do you have officials like you in the court? Are you really the parents of the people? Hehe, good. I will give you time to investigate, and you can do whatever you want."
