In the 37th year of Emperor Xuanguang, Shen Jinyu, Minister of the Ministry of Justice, received an anonymous report letter, which recorded in detail how Situ Ya conspired with his protégé Ke Qing to rebel.

The whole country was in an uproar for a while.The people who used to think about the kindness of Situ's family all changed their faces for a while.

"Prince Yongning's ambition is like a wolf, and what he said about helping the victims, now it seems that he is just buying people's hearts."

"Yes, wolf ambition, His Majesty Xuanguang raised a white-eyed wolf!"

"I think King Yongning is sincere. He opens a warehouse every year to release grain every year. For decades, all he pays is real money. If it's just for show, he won't insist on doing this for so many years."

"What do you know? It's called acting too much. In order to get the supreme position, Situ Ya won't feel bad for letting this little blood go."

Occasionally there were different voices, but they were quickly suppressed by the voices of crusade.

The voices of the people turned against each other, and Ke Qing, the disciples who had been friends with Situ Ya in the past, also began to draw a clear line in the court.The once famous family collapsed overnight.

Shen Jinyu had a violent temper and killed Situ's family for rebellion. Later, he found Situ Ya's personal letter of rebellion. The evidence was conclusive and irrefutable.

Yongning Wang Situya finally committed suicide at home, leaving a final letter: "I am worthy of Your Majesty and the people in this life." Rebellion is a serious crime, and Situ Ya's death alone is not counted, and the nine families of Situ's family are implicated.

Zhu Yan and Zhu Qi, who were also princesses at the time, knelt down to Zhaolan Palace to intercede.

Zhu Yan looked anxious: "Mother, I don't believe that the Situ family would do such a thing."

"Mother, I don't believe it either. There must be some misunderstanding." Zhu Qi also spoke hastily.

Zhu Wei sat at the head, with a peaceful and sad face, holding a letter of treason in her left hand and a letter of renunciation in her right hand.For a moment I didn't know how to react.explain

After a long silence, he said: "The evidence is conclusive, and we should act according to the law. You don't have to."

Zhu Yan thought that Situ Daoshan who grew up with her was about to die, and couldn't accept such a result for a while anyway.That is a very good brother. When I was studying in Taixue, I asked him any questions I didn't understand, and he could answer them patiently.

How could she have the heart to let him die like this, Zhu Yan said: "Your Majesty, I beg Your Majesty to marry you!"

Zhu Qi was taken aback, and said anxiously: "What time is it, you actually think about such a thing!"

Zhu Yandao: "I beg Your Majesty to give me a marriage. My son wants to marry Situ Daoshan, please Your Majesty to make it happen!"

Zhu Qi knelt on the side, looking dazed, she immediately realized that Dajing Kingdom has a rule that for those who have been imprisoned for serious crimes, as long as they are not direct participants, if they can marry the royal family, the death penalty is exempt.It's just that he can no longer enter the official career for life.

Seeing that Situ's family was about to fail, Zhu Yan had no choice.

Zhu Qi also immediately said: "I beg Your Majesty to give you a marriage, and my son is also willing, and my son is also willing to marry Brother Daoshan."

Emperor Xuanguang looked at his two daughters who were crying, and softened his heart.In the end, the entire Situ family was killed, leaving only Situ Daoshan alone.

One month after King Yongning's funeral, Princess Heguang of Dajing Kingdom married Situ Daoshan, and the wedding was very low-key.

On the wedding night, Zhu Yan said to Situ Daoshan in tears, "I'm sorry, brother Daoshan, I..."

Situ Daoshan shook his head, his whole body was dull.The family had a great funeral, but he got married here. He was like a walking dead, completely immersed in his own world, and had no reaction to the outside world.

Zhu Yan said: "You are still in the mourning period, but His Majesty is in a hurry to make the ceremony, I didn't want to be in such a hurry..."

Situ Daoshan still shook his head.

Zhu Yan was very sad, that elegant and handsome young man, now walking, sitting and lying down, turned into a log, with all relatives gone, how can ordinary people bear this kind of shock?

She suddenly didn't know whether it was right or wrong for her to do so. At that time, she only wanted to save Situ Daoshan's life, but she didn't think about the future.

Zhu Yan walked to the bed and sat next to the person, "I believe in you, I believe in the Situ family, don't worry, I will help you investigate the case and restore the Situ family's innocence."

After a long time, Situ Daoshan nodded dully.

In the twelfth lunar month of the same year, Emperor Xuanguang Zhu Wei passed away.Zhu Yan ascended the throne and changed his reign name to Heguang.

The snow in the imperial garden has already melted, winter is coming to spring, and everything is reborn. Zhu Yan looked at Situ Daoshan who was sitting alone in the imperial garden, and approached: "Situ Jun, I have something to discuss with you."

Situ Daoshan raised his head and responded: "Please speak, Your Majesty."

He has already opened his mouth to talk to people, but he is still a lot more silent than before.

Zhu Yan said: "I want you to be the Prime Minister."

Even though he entered Situ Dao Mountain calmly, his face was still shocked, "Thank you for your love, but I am the son of a criminal minister. I have received great kindness from Your Majesty for saving me, and I really dare not take on this important task."

Zhu Yan shook her head: "You are the most suitable candidate."

Situ Daoshan was a bit like Zhu Yan's father, they were both refined and restrained people. When her father was prime minister, he and his mother had always treated each other like a guest.

Now that she is the queen, she must also find someone with the character of her father.And Situ Jun is the most suitable candidate.

In this way, Zhu Yan made up her mind and eliminated all opinions. After a lot of effort, she really made Situ Jun the prime minister.

At the same time, Zhu Yan has not been idle, and has been secretly looking for someone to investigate the case of Situ's family.

At the end of the first year of Heguang, Mingtai was born.Situ Jun looked at the little Mingtai, and suddenly there seemed to be a glimmer of light in his hopeless life.

Holding Mingtai's small body wrapped in red cloth, he said with tears in his eyes, "Thank you, Your Majesty, Your Majesty... Thank you."

Thousands of words, thank you so much.He thought his life was over, but it was so easy to end the years.

No matter how difficult the day is, it will come to an end, and no matter how painful the experience is, there will be a day when it will slowly fade away.

His life is getting better, he has a son, he will smile to himself, he will bite his finger and suck, this little life is connected with his blood.

The days moved forward like a horse, and in the spring of the second year of Heguang, Dajing's court was full of blood and blood.

After Zhu Yan and Situ Jun's continuous efforts, the case finally came to light, and the letter of treason that caused disaster to the entire Situ family was proved to be a forgery.

There was an uproar all over the world.Public grievances boiled over.

"When King Yongning was alive, he helped the victims, set up schools, and did so many good things for our people, but he ended up like this in the end! Sigh!"

"My son just went to the school run by him to study and passed the exam. Now he is an official in another place. I will never forget the kindness of her old man. If there is no King Ning Shui, I am a butcher, how can I afford my son to study!"

"This family is really pitiful. Who judged the case back then?"

"Who else is there, the stern and selfless Shen Jinyu."

"At that time, the first emperor originally wanted to delay this case, but Mr. Shen was a man of hatred, and he strongly advocated punishing the nine clans who conspired against the rebels to make an example! If Mr. Shen had any sympathy at that time, he would have investigated the case more. , Situ's family may not end up like this."

"It's really pitiful for the Situ family."

However, it was Shen Jinyu who was hit the hardest by this incident.She couldn't tolerate her glorious resume and brilliant life to make such a serious mistake.Immediately, he vomited a mouthful of blood in the Yuanhe Hall, and from then on he couldn't recover from the illness, and his whole body deteriorated rapidly.

Compared to Shen Jinyu, Situ Daoshan is a calmer one.He has always been convinced that his family has been wronged, and he has been waiting for a long time to be wronged, but at the moment when it comes, he feels a sense of peace and relief.

He re-enshrined the memorial tablet of the ancestral temple that could not be worshiped due to sin before. He solemnly lit a stick of incense and kowtowed three times.Not thinking about the past, not thinking about the past, Ming Tai, who hugged Xiao Xiaozheng, really let go of this painful past.

In the third year of Heguang, Situ Daoshan became an official in the former dynasty, all the way from an ordinary official to a servant, and in the fourth year of Heguang, from an official to the Minister of the Ministry of Rites.

Seeing that the famous Situ family was about to make a comeback, the court people couldn't sit still for a while.

"It's just relying on nepotism to get in the position, how do you really treat yourself?"

"There is no precedent for a good harem insisting on meddling with the previous dynasty."

"That's it."

"Without His Majesty, how could he afford to be the Minister of Rites?"

Zhu Yan asked Situ Jun in private: "Situ Jun, are you wronged?"

Situ Jun shook his head: "Your Majesty is kind to me. It is His Majesty's kindness to re-enter the official career. I don't mind what outsiders say."

Zhu Yan saw it in her eyes, the children raised by the Situ family could not be wrong after all, Zhu Yan did not help him in the previous dynasty, everything he has today was all earned by himself.

But the prejudice and envy of the world are never willing to admit this.No matter how excellent a person is, as long as he has the status of a prime minister, all his efforts will be attributed to his relying on women.

Mu Jin listened attentively.Ming Tai didn't blink his eyes on one side, his big eyes were shining, and he didn't know how much he understood.

Zhu Yan patted Ming Tai's head: "You are too young, you probably don't understand."

Ming Tai shook his head: "Mom, I understand. My father's family was framed, and my mother saved my father. People in the court said that my father depends entirely on my mother."

Mu Jin was a little surprised. She probably underestimated the child's ability to understand, but he already understood everything.

Zhu Yan smiled gently and said, "I'm sorry for your father, I had no other way to protect him at that time."

Ming Tai's little mind was spinning desperately. Although he understood the story, he was too young to understand the relationship between adults.

Zhu Yan turned to look at Mu Jin again: "Ah Jin, I always thought that Prime Minister should be like my father. So I chose Situ Jun. But..." When she really started to understand love Only then did I realize that the so-called respect as a guest and the so-called suitability are, after all, a very ridiculous standard.

Zhu Qi was sitting at the table outside the big tent.From time to time, the eyes aimed at the woods.Look at the sky and frown, a little anxious.

Seeing that there was no one around, she stood up calmly and walked to Zhu Xingqing not far away, "Xingqing, after all, she is our brother...you don't...I'll go..."
