Carnivorous Princess and Herbivore Consort

The emperor finally woke up after taking the medicine for several days, and the first thing he did when he woke up was to call Wei Mucheng to go.

"What did she say?" The emperor who was supported to sit up half leaned against the bed rail, looked at Wei Mucheng who was sitting on the stool by the bed and asked.

"Father, it's better to take care of your body and then..."

The emperor was a little hesitant when he heard this, and interrupted him: "I'm already healed."

"Yes." Wei Mucheng had no choice but to respond, "Princess, she has already reflected on it."

The emperor obviously didn't believe it, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Will she know that she was wrong?"

Seeing that he couldn't deceive the emperor, Wei Mucheng had no choice but to sigh and said: "Father, don't be angry, don't be anxious, just listen to my son. My son thinks that the imperial sister and Miss Shen... are not at fault in this matter. And The one who is wrong in this matter has always been Mei Haomiao, who is lawless and disregards human life! If he hadn't bent the law for personal gain, Ms. Shen would not have to risk the crime of deceiving the emperor to go to Beijing to rush for the exam to avenge her brother; if Ms. Shen had no choice but to make such a bad plan, Since I will never meet the imperial sister, let alone what happened today. In the final analysis, both Ms. Shen and the imperial sister are victims of this incident."

"But this is not an excuse for Shen Dongxue to seduce Qing'er and teach Qing'er to lie to me together!"

"Why does the father love Qing He more than other princes and princesses?" Wei Mucheng replied without waiting for the emperor to speak, "It's not because Qing He's younger sister is the most like the father. You know her temperament best. Who told who to hide this matter, I'm afraid the father is like a mirror in his heart. If the imperial sister hadn't been selfish towards Miss Shen early in the morning, after she knew Miss Shen's identity as a woman, how could she help conceal it?"

The exposed emperor glared at Wei Mucheng and remained silent.

Wei Mucheng pretended not to see it, and asked to himself: "If you leave Miss Shen's gender aside, what kind of person does Royal Father think Shen Dongxue is?"

The emperor thought for a while, and replied: "You are polite and talented."

"Compared to the imperial sister?"

"A talented woman who is not as talented as Qing'er can be considered a generation, but her temperament is much better than Qing'er."

"Has the father thought about it, if the imperial sister hadn't thought about Miss Shen, would the 'talented and polite' Miss Shen have rescued her brother and returned to Lingzhou, married a good man, and lived a peaceful life? Wealthy days?"

The emperor was silent.

Wei Mucheng probably understood what the emperor was thinking, and asked: "What is the father angry about now? It's just that he was deceived. The father never thought that the emperor's sister would deceive himself for an outsider, and this The outsider is still a woman who is in love with her, so he is very angry, and without thinking about it, he blamed Miss Shen."

The emperor, who was exposed again, glared at him again and said, "But how can a woman and a woman be together? This is against yin and yang, and the laws of heaven cannot tolerate it!"

"Father doesn't know that there is indeed a kind of people in this world who are different from ordinary people. They like people of the same gender as themselves. But regardless of gender, Father thinks that the relationship between the royal sister and Ms. Shen in the past two years is different from other couples. Is there a difference?"

The emperor thought for a while and said gloomily, "No."

"That's it. If they didn't offend someone and the matter was revealed, I'm afraid they don't know how long they can keep it a secret!"

"Cheng'er, you said that if they didn't choose to hide it from me, and after I found out, I forcibly canceled their marriage, Qing'er...what would happen?"

"Actually, if it was two years ago, it would be a breakup if it was broken up. At most, the imperial sister would make a fuss for a while, and then gradually forget it. It's a pity that there is no 'if'. Two years have passed, and this is discovered. If you want to separate them now, I'm afraid it will be impossible anyway."

"Good fortune tricks people!"

"Father, you might as well think of the best. If it wasn't for Miss Shen, who would Father give the royal sister to? It must be a dude from an adult's family in Beijing. With Qinghe's arrogance, how can he be 'married' after getting married?" From husband'? It is inevitable that he will not become the second Mae Su."

"That's all, you go down, I'll think about it for myself."

"Yes, Father."

"Brother Huang, what's the matter?" Wei Muqing looked haggard, and he was no different from Shen Dongxue in the prison.

Wei Mucheng felt distressed when he saw it, "Looking at how thin you are, Emperor Father should have acquiesced to you and Miss Shen, so let's think about how to communicate to the outside world now."

"It's all my fault. If I had been ruthless at the time and asked the family to kill all the people who knew about it that night, it wouldn't have been..."

"What living?"

Wei Muqing then told about the fact that someone sneaked into the mansion to assassinate.

Wei Mucheng was shocked when he heard this, "There is such a thing? Why didn't you tell Brother Huang earlier!"

"I was also afraid that Dongxue's matter would be exposed, so I never mentioned it."

"Compared to fate, is this concealment anything? Fortunately, nothing happened this time."

"Brother Huang said that I am narrow-minded." Wei Muqing sighed, "Before I thought that I would not be able to find out who sent the assassin, but I only suspected that it was Wei Musui, but now it is a certainty."

"I didn't expect his hand to be stretched back, so we underestimated him."

"But his move is considered a failure. If it weren't for this move, I'm afraid we would still only focus on Jin'an Mansion and Donglan Country, and wouldn't be wary of Jingli."

"Once Miss Shen's matter is over, I'm afraid he will make some moves."

Wei Muqing sighed, and blamed himself a little, "He expected that with the love my father gave me, he would forgive Dong Xue in the end, and this became an excuse for him to raise troops."

Wei Mucheng comforted: "I'll give him the excuse, now I'm so afraid that he won't come."

"It's just a little earlier than our plan, I don't know..."

"It's okay, everything has been prepared, so it's time to cut the mess with a sharp knife."

After the emperor woke up and rested for two days, he finally went to court.

Qi Shilang and his group urged the Ministry of Criminal Justice to start the trial of Shen Dongxue's case, and the emperor agreed after thinking about it.

After the court, Wei Muqing waited outside the imperial study.

"Your Majesty, Princess Qinghe has been waiting for a long time, so please meet me." Liang Xun watched Wei Muqing grow up, and his heart ached when he saw her haggard.

Seeing the emperor's hesitation, Wei Mucheng said, "Father, this matter must be settled."

"Call her in."

"My son greets my father, the emperor."

"Why, I've been seriously ill, and you're haggard too?" Seeing Wei Muqing's thin face, the emperor's heart softened instantly.

"Returning to my father, my father has been ill recently, and my son-in-law has been imprisoned again, and my children and ministers have trouble sleeping and eating, so it is not as good as before."

Seeing Wei Muqing's three sentences never leaving Shen Dongxue, the emperor felt a little apprehensive, waved his hands and said, "Okay."

"Royal father, it's my son and Dong Xue's fault to deliberately deceive her. My son is willing to be punished. It's just that my son can't leave her for a long time, but I hope that no matter what the father does, don't break up my son and Dong Xue."

Hearing what Wei Muqing said, the emperor felt even more uncomfortable, and said gloomily: "In your heart, I am that bad guy who doesn't understand the truth and beats mandarin ducks?"

"Father is the most wise person in the heart of my son and minister."

"It's the first time I heard you flattering me so uncomfortable, forget it, tell me, what do you want to do about it?"

"My son has an idea, I don't know if it will work."

"Tell me."

On the day when Shen Dongxue's "crime of deceiving the emperor" was tried by the Ministry of Criminal Justice, Wei Muqing attended the court according to the law.The trial of the case of the royal relatives and relatives can choose not to be made public, so only a few ministers involved and witnesses were present.

Shen Dongxue was escorted out wearing handcuffs, Wei Muqing's clothes and loose hair.Even if Wei Mucheng had taken care of her, life in prison was not easy.

When the two looked at each other, they couldn't help but turn red.

"Bring the plaintiff's witnesses." The presiding judge is the Minister of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and he still has a good impression of Shen Dongxue, a competent subordinate.Seeing that she was in such a state of desperation, she thought about finishing the trial early and closing the case early, after all, long-term pain is worse than short-term pain.

The first to be brought up was Bu Nan in brocade clothes.Standing next to the disheveled Shen Dongxue, Bu Nan moved aside with some disgust, "Caomin has seen the adults and the princess."

"Can you prove that the defendant is a woman disguised as a man, and went to Beijing to rush for the exam, intending to deceive the emperor?"

"Return to your lord, Caomin can prove it."

"How to prove it?"

"Caomin has been engaged to Miss Shen from the Shen family in Lingzhou since childhood," Bu Nan took out a jade pendant from his purse and said, "This jade pendant was carved by Caomin's father and Master Shen when they were engaged to Caomin and Miss Shen. It's a pair, Caomin is engraved with Miss Shen's boudoir name, and the one in Miss Shen's hand should be Caomin's name. Caomin has never heard of the Shen family having a second son since childhood."

"Defendant Shen Dongxue, is what the plaintiff's witnesses said true?"

Shen Dongxue nodded, "Part of what Mr. Bu said is true. The marriage contract between Minnv and Mr. Bu was indeed made when she was a child. It's just that when Minnv's elder brother was framed and imprisoned, the Bu family hastily divorced the engagement, so this The pair of jade pendants are not in Minnv's body, but in Mr. Bu's hands."

The ministers who were watching looked at each other, subconsciously looking at Wei Muqing.

Wei Muqing stared fiercely at Bu Nan with a sullen face, as if he wanted to eat people.

Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice knocked on the gavel and said: "That is to say, you did have a marriage contract with Mr. Bu's family?"

"really."

"Pass to the plaintiff's second witness."

"The woman is a stable woman in Lingzhou, who gave birth to Mrs. Shen. The woman can prove that Miss Shen is a daughter."

"How do you prove what you said is true?"

"The woman remembers that Miss Shen has a red mole on the elbow of her right arm."

The Secretary of the Ministry of Justice embarrassedly signaled the people beside him to roll up Shen Dongxue's sleeve.

Seeing this, Shen Dongxue rolled up her sleeves, and there was indeed a red mole, "Why bother, my lord, Minnv has long since admitted that she is a woman."

For a moment, the entire lobby fell into an eerie silence.

It was Wei Muqing who laughed out loud first, "You are from the Ministry of Criminal Justice, why have you forgotten that even if the defendant pleads guilty, you have to go through the motions?"

"Thank you princess for reminding, it's the girl who forgot." Shen Dongxue smiled at her.

The Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment came back to his senses, and hurriedly said: "If the defendant has no objection, then he can put a mark on the testimony, and the judge will pronounce the sentence after drawing."

Shen Dongxue took the paper with the testimony written on it, read it through the ten lines at a glance, and found that there was nothing wrong with it, so he signed the paper and put it down.

The Minister of the Ministry of Justice patted the gavel, and was about to pronounce the sentence, but was interrupted, "Wait—"

"What advice does the princess have?"
