Mu Xi never expected that Shang Junlin would come over at this time, and he didn't let anyone inform him when he came in. Shang Junlin usually comes to Yuzhang Palace at a relatively fixed time, concentrated in the evening or evening, and the same is true. Mu Xi usually chooses to talk to Shen Yu in the morning.
Even after entering the palace, Shen Yu didn't forget to let people keep an eye on Zhenbeihou's mansion. The main focus of attention was naturally Shen Qingran, the protagonist of the original book. Every once in a while, news would come from outside the palace.
Unexpectedly, Yue Wang and Shen Qingran hooked up so early, earlier than what Shen Yu read from the book, was it because of his withdrawal
That's right, at this time in the previous life, Shen Qingran had already entered the palace, and the progress of the relationship between the two could only stagnate. Shang Junlin had already entered the house, so he couldn't think about it anymore when he was depressed, so he hurriedly restrained his mind and got up to greet him.
"Is Your Majesty finished today?"
Shang Junlin is still very diligent about government affairs, busy with official duties most of the time every day, and sometimes even brings zhezi to Yuzhang Palace.
"If I hadn't come here at this point, I wouldn't have heard your little girl say something so interesting." Shang Junlin didn't answer the gloomy question, and his eagle-like eyes fell on Mu Xi, "Tell me, who bullied us?" Your Majesty?"
"Your Majesty, forgive me, servant girl, servant girl..." Mu Xi knelt down with a "plop" and lowered her head firmly.
"Your Majesty is curious that it doesn't matter if you say it. At most, it's just your master who made fun of me." Shen Yu said indifferently.
Mu Xi couldn't help looking at Shen Yu, and was surprised to find that there was no panic on Shen Yu's face, it seemed that what she wanted to say was not a big deal.
Shen Yu really doesn't mind Shang Junlin knowing this. The relationship between him and Shang Junlin is not a normal relationship between an emperor and a concubine. Maybe someone would have known about what Mu Xi was hiding. up.
"Let me say it, Your Majesty just don't make fun of me," sighed gloomily, walked to Shang Junlin's side, pulled his sleeve, showing aggrieved face, "It's just that before entering the palace, someone kept saying that he liked me very much." I can't help but turn around and get mixed up with my concubine brother, it can be seen that the love in a man's mouth is just talk, it can't be believed."
"Oh?" Shang Junlin took advantage of the situation to embrace the depressed waist, imprisoned him in front of him, bowed his head and said affectionately, "Is your gentleman sad?"
The man's voice was soft, with an inexplicable meaning, and the skin on the side of the depressed neck was slightly pink under the halo of the man's hot breath.
The jade-like crystal clear skin was stained with a blush, and the man's eyes darkened.
The voice became hoarse: "I will vent my anger for your lord, okay?"
The atmosphere suddenly became ambiguous, the strength of the arm around the waist increased, and he looked gloomy at the man's dark eyes, and his heart tightened.
Warm sunlight came in through the open window, and half of them fell on the two of them. I felt gloomy that the arms around my waist were much hotter than the sun, as if they were about to burn.
"Your Majesty..." He turned his head gloomily, avoiding the man's serious gaze, "You hurt me."
Shang Junlin stared at him for a while, then let go of his arms: "What will you do when you are so delicate?"
The words with special meaning successfully spread the crimson color to the young man's cheeks, especially the earlobes, like a plump, moist and attractive fruit to pick.
Shang Junlin moved his fingers slightly, wanting to touch the young man's red earlobe.
Leaving the heat on the man's body, his gloomy mood slowly calmed down. If Shang Junlin was not still here, he would really like to rub his face.
"Mu Xi, you go down first." Out of the corner of her eye, she glanced at the maid kneeling beside her, and let out a low cough.
Mu Xi bowed his head and backed out.
Shang Junlin came in alone, after Mu Xi left, only Shang Junlin and Shen Yu were left in the room.
Shen Yu poured himself a cup of tea, felt inappropriate after drinking it, and poured another cup: "Do you want it, Your Majesty?"
Shang Junlin took it and drank it: "Your Majesty, do you really not want me to vent my anger on you?"
Shen Yu looked up at the man, and was taken aback for a moment. There was no playfulness on the man's face, and he was asking him seriously.
"Your Majesty, I don't care about what happened before entering the palace. What's more, other people are no match for Your Majesty. With His Majesty here, what other people do is none of my business." Shen Yu rubbed his teacup with a calm tone.
"you… "
"However, if Your Majesty can make them less unlucky, I'd be happy to see it." Shang Junlin just said a word before being interrupted by depression.
For the two protagonists in the book that he saw after his death, Shen Yu was so happy to make them unhappy.
The situation in the court is changing rapidly. Mr. Fang, Fang Jun, is a humble official who was promoted after Shang Junlin ascended the throne. He enforces the law impartially and is very talented in investigating cases.
He is one of Shang Junlin's direct descendants. He works in Dali Temple. His official position is not high at present. After Shang Junlin ascended the throne, he began to cultivate his power in the court on a large scale. There are not many people available.
The more he investigated, the more Fang Jun felt that this case was not simple. He originally wanted to investigate the person who planned to rob the prison, but unexpectedly, all he found was evidence of Zhang Yushi's corruption and perverting the law.
One pile, one piece, shocking.
He also finally understood why Zhang Yushi was thrown into prison suddenly.
The people who assisted him in handling the case looked at the evidence and remained silent. Not long ago, they were sincerely feeling the injustice of Zhang Yushi, but now those memories seem to be slapped on their faces one by one.
The face hurts.
"Master Fang, this..."
These things are hot in their hands. Most importantly, they don't know the emperor's attitude. Does the emperor know about what Zhang Yushi has done? If you know, how much do you know? Why was it not announced when Zhang Yushi was imprisoned
"I'll go to the palace first, so don't act rashly, and don't leak the news, otherwise..."
"The lower officials know, the lower officials know, Mr. Fang don't worry."
Several people looked at each other and understood that they could no longer stay out of the matter now.
Zhang Yushi took the criminal evidence into the palace, and talked with Shang Junlin in the imperial study all afternoon. No one knew what they said, but what Fang Jun said the next day caused a huge wave in the court.
How can it be
The ministers looked at each other in blank dismay, and a few who obviously knew the inside story dodged their eyes, not daring to look at the man on the throne.
Your Majesty knows? How much does he know? Have their secrets been exposed... Countless questions hovered in their minds, and they couldn't help but pray when they were flustered, that their affairs must not be known by the emperor.
After some commotion, a minister stood up: "Dare to ask Mr. Fang, can you ensure the authenticity of the evidence?"
"All the evidence and witnesses have been verified one by one. The evidence is solid and there is absolutely no possibility of framing." Fang Jun knew what they were wondering about. When he first got the evidence, he had the same doubt. Enter the palace to face the saint.
"Wow—"
The discussion in the hall became louder, and no one expected that Fang Jun's investigation of the prison robbery case would reveal such a big inside story, so His Majesty couldn't help but say whether Zhang Yushi was thrown into prison because he knew about it, or because he was blind. Dead mouse
"Is the discussion over?"
A dispassionate voice came from the throne, the courtiers suddenly fell silent, and the hall could hear a needle drop.
Shang Junlin's eyes casually skipped over the ministers, and a few of them with poor mental quality almost knelt down.
With one hand on his chin, Shang Junlin said coldly, "Fang Jun, tell me everything you found."
Fang Jun cupped his hands and said in a loud voice: "The criminal minister Zhang Yuhua invaded 2,000 mu of fertile land in the seventeenth year of Qingping, and in the twenty-first year of Qingping..."
In the huge space, there was only Fang Jun's voice, and it took almost two quarters of an hour to read all the criminal evidence.
In the silence, Shang Junlin's slightly cold voice sounded: "Is there anyone pleading for Zhang Yushi now?"
No one dared to answer. A few days ago, they knelt here unanimously, begging the emperor to acquit Zhang Yushi, and the result
What the hell is a wrong payment with true feelings.
An old minister stood up tremblingly: "May I ask your Majesty, was it because of these reasons that the guilty minister Zhang was arrested?"
Shang Junlin: "What does Mr. Chen think?"
Old Chen: "It's a minister."
Shang Junlin: "Fang Jun, I entrust you with the matter of Zhang Yushi, don't let me down."
Fang Jun: "Your Majesty will live up to your Majesty's entrustment!"
The early court came to an end in the complicated mood of the ministers, and the story of Zhang Yushi also spread throughout the capital after the morning court.
There are also a small number of people who refuse to believe it, but given the solid evidence, there is nothing they can do if they don't believe it.
The news also spread in the palace.
"I said that His Majesty did not kill innocent people indiscriminately. Zhang Yushi's arrest was indeed his own fault."
"Yes, who would have thought that Zhang Yushi, who has always been fair and honest, would be a person who does all kinds of evil and fishes the common people."
"There are rumors about how cruel His Majesty is, but if you think about it carefully, we have stayed in the palace for so many years, and we have never been punished by His Majesty for any reason."
"That's right, there are also those who were killed last time. Didn't they explain it later? Those were all colluding with the foreign ministers and secretly passed the news from the palace to the outside of the palace. If you want me to say, these people deserve their death. "
Hearing the discussion in front of him, Shen Yu stopped, and the people walking beside him also stopped.
It's just that they finally made a noise, and the palace servants who were talking stopped talking and walked towards this side.
Shen Yu pulled Shang Junlin aside to hide.
It's a pity that it was too late, and was bumped into by the palace man who came to check.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."
Kneeling down with a "plop", the palace man turned pale with fright when he thought of what he had just said.
When the others heard the movement, they knelt down to pay their respects, their bodies trembling slightly, and their faces were ugly.
Shang Junlin kept silent with a cold face, tugged at his sleeves gloomyly, and seeing that he still had no sign of speaking, he dismissed the palace servants silently.
After everyone left, Shang Junlin asked in a cold voice, "Are you so shameless? When you meet a few palace people, they want to pull me into hiding."
"What are you thinking, Your Majesty? I just don't want to scare them. Look at them, they are so scared that they are trembling when they walk." Shen Yu Nao didn't understand what made people unhappy, and subconsciously followed suit.
Realizing his gaffe, Shang Junlin frowned: "Zhen..."
"Your Majesty," Shen Yu suddenly approached, interrupting Shang Junlin's words, "Does Your Majesty have anything to say?"
The vision was suddenly occupied by the magnified stunning face, Shang Junlin was stunned: "What?"
"Just now, after hearing what those little maids said, do you have any thoughts?" Sullen eyes were full of interest, "Your Majesty, don't you want to explain what those few maids said just now?"
Shang Junlin narrowed his eyes dangerously: "I see that your courage is getting bigger and bigger."
