Chapter 332

What he said was true. When he learned about it, his first reaction was a bolt from the blue. But he was escorted away by the officers and soldiers before he was allowed to regret, and his father did not stop him from beginning to end.

The night in prison was the longest for Xie Shensi. He almost broke his intestines. Therefore, after being summoned to the Jinluan hall, he busily confessed everything.

At this time, face is not as important as life.

Although Xie Shensi has been in business for many years, he immediately counsels the emperor.

Seeing that he took the whole thing out and put aside his face, someone's face immediately showed the meaning of ridicule.

Emperor Jing pondered for a while, but did not immediately draw a conclusion. Instead, he asked the officials present, "what do you think of this matter?"

After all, Xie Shensi is a big or small matter, and it's about Xie Shengli. Jingdi still wants to sell face to the Xie family.

Unexpectedly, as soon as his words came out, a minister immediately retorted, "emperor, I think he is lying!"

It was Li Shilang of the Ministry of officials who was always at odds with the Xie family.

Hearing the words, although emperor Jing was a little displeased in his heart, he kept silent on his face and asked, "why did Ai Qing say that?"

The Li Shilang said in a respectful voice, "when I return to the emperor, I know that Xie Shensi's concubine once had a close relationship with the fifth prince. At that time, there were rumors that she intended to get married! In this case, how can we not know? According to Wei Chen, it must be the Xie family who saw the failure of the fifth Prince's rebellion and was afraid of being implicated, so they hastened to get rid of the relationship! "

He didn't say it was OK. As soon as he said it, Xie Shensi suddenly jumped up in anger. How ugly the look on his face was, he kowtowed and said, "emperor Mingjian, this adult only knows one thing, but he doesn't know the other! The fifth Prince used to use the little girl to incite her to murder her own grandfather, which almost led to a big mistake. Later, when the fifth prince saw that the little girl had not done so, he took advantage of her punishment and put some medicine in her food, intending to kill her! "

At this point, Xie Shensi changed a look of righteous indignation, and said, "how can the grassroots get involved with him because of such a bitter hatred? The grassroots are really wronged!"

As soon as he heard about it, Emperor Jing's face changed. He didn't expect that Xiao Junyi had done something worse than that! How stupid and cruel it is to instigate a woman to murder her elders!

Xiao Junxi has been listening quietly, until this time just stood out, "father, son minister think, Xie family generations are loyal, absolutely will not do the thing of betraying the Lord. And in this case, the Xie family is the victim. Even though the third son of the Xie family is a little confused, this crime will not affect the Xie family. "

What he said was in the heart of emperor Jing. Emperor Jing didn't want to tangle too much about it, so he waved his hand and said, "what he said is reasonable. According to my will, the three sons of the Xie family acted improperly, which was against the rule of decency. Because the Xie family had no way to teach their children, they punished Xie Shengli for three years' salary, as an example. "

This punishment can be described as high up, gently down. In the end, there was no substantial punishment.

The people of the Xie family didn't know that the emperor was giving them steps. They knelt down and kowtowed to thank them. "Long live my emperor!" they said

What else did the other ministers want to say? As soon as they touched the eyes of emperor Jingdi, they immediately shrunk. Emperor Jing made up his mind to face the Xie family. If they said anything more, they could not find happiness for themselves.

This matter has been turned over, and it's time to put other things on the Charter.

After the Xie family was settled, Emperor Jing gave two more orders, both of which were about Xiao Junhan.

When he was able to go to the lower court, the imperial edict of Ming Huang was sent directly to the palace of king Qi.

Shen Jingci is serving Qin Wanyi in the main courtyard. When she hears the news that the internal warden is calling for him to take the order, her eyes suddenly light up. It's just that she has been around Qin Wanyi for a long time, which suppresses the joy in her heart. Until Qin Wanyi goes out first, she slowly follows her.

In the courtyard, Qin Wanyi and Shen Jingci knelt down, listening to the words in the imperial edict.

The words of commendation in the front were the second, but the last sentence made Shen Jingci's heart beat fast.

"Shen side imperial concubine gives Shu word, reward two grade female officials, teach two practice Mammy, palace person four, inside serve four; Another auspicious day. Thank you very much

Shen Jingci's pride in her eyes can no longer be covered up. She happily thanks for accepting the will. Yu Guangli also glimpses the bloody expression on Qin Wanyi's face.

Since ancient times, the side imperial concubine has given the word, that is with the imperial concubine side by side. What's more, Emperor Jing gave her a female official and a mother according to the position of Zheng Fei. That's what Zheng Fei has! Emperor Jingdi is obviously going to promote her.

The eunuch, who came to pass the edict, was also full of smiles and said, "side imperial concubine, please forgive me. The emperor can say that you are a rare understanding person in the Shen family. Now I know what the emperor said is true. Look at the style of the whole body. Isn't it a rare transparent person

Shen Jingci said with a smile, "my father-in-law, you have a good tea in your house. If you don't like it, come in and have a drink."

How dare you drink it? Then he waved his hand and said with a smile, "the tea of the side imperial concubine must be the best, but the old slave still has something important to do. Another day, I'd like to thank the side imperial concubine."

After being so polite, the internal warden put the red seal full of silver into his sleeve and went outside the house with a smile.

When the inner Chamberlain left, as soon as Shen looked back, she saw that Qin Wanyi was still standing in the same place.

Shen Jingci said with a smile, "sister, it's windy outside. You'd better go back to the room soon."

Qin Wanyi's face was happy and angry, but she said in a hard voice, "since the emperor has a reward, then you go on, but the rules are unchangeable. Don't forget your position because your identity is elevated! I'm a concubine. I've been given the same words. Can my sister understand? "

Hearing the speech, Shen Jingci's smile froze. As soon as she was about to speak, she heard the footsteps coming from afar. She knelt down and said, "what my sister taught me is that I dare not disobey her sister's meaning."

When she spoke with a little choking, people thought Qin Wanyi bullied her.

Xiao Junhan, who has just entered the door, thinks the same way.

When he entered the house, he happened to meet the Chamberlain. As soon as he stepped in, he saw Shen Jingci kneeling in front of Qin Wanyi and saying these words, which made him not think much.

Xiao Junhan came over and asked, "what's the matter?" While talking, he helped Shen Jingci up.

Since Shen Jingci took the initiative to hand over the soldiers of the Shen family to the emperor Jing and blocked the sword for him, Shen Jingci's position in the heart of the emperor Jing has changed. This morning, in the presence of civil and military officials, Emperor Jing did not mean to support Shen Jingci.

After being helped up by Xiao Junhan, Shen Jingci quickly wiped away the moisture in her eyes and said with a forced smile, "my sister is teaching my concubine how to behave. Please say hello to the king."

No matter how silly Qin Wanyi was, she could see that she had been calculated. She immediately changed her face and said, "it's not like this, Lord. I'm just --"

Before she finished speaking, she was interrupted by Xiao Junhan and said in a cold voice, "there are so many things in your family, and the princess has leisure. Standing here to teach people the rules, we can see that she doesn't care about other things. If the princess doesn't want to take care of it, just give it to ci'er. "

Hearing this, Qin Wanyi's face turned pale, and she said, "Lord, listen to me..."

But where would Xiao Junhan listen to her, he immediately took Shen Jingci's hand, turned around and left without even letting Qin Wanyi finish.

On the contrary, Shen Jingci, who was caught by Xiao Junhan, did not forget to turn around and said, "princess, I am leaving."

But the smug in her eyes could not be concealed in any way.

Qin Wanyi stood in the same place, biting her lower lip with blood and tears in her eyes.

But Xiao Junhan's bodyguard was a little impatient. He whispered, "princess, the Emperor gave the imperial edict in public this morning, saying that it was the prince and the concubine who made contributions to the suppression of the anti thief. They specially took the empress out of the cold palace and gave her a new position to the concubine. Now the prince is grateful to the concubine. Why don't you find it hard for yourself at this time? "

Qin Wanyi took a look at him and sighed, "how could I ever be unhappy, but this rule is bigger than heaven, and she won't even abide by it."

At this point, even she felt that it was useless to say this to a bodyguard, because she waved her hand and said, "just follow your Lord and serve him well. I'll go back first. "

With that, Qin Wanyi turned and walked away, leaving a desolate figure behind.

"What, the virtuous concubine was released?"

After hearing the news, Xie rucao was shocked. This time, Shen Jingci took the initiative to hand over the people left by the Shen family to Emperor Jing, who had long thought of giving her a reward. However, Xie rucao did not expect that emperor Jing would even let the virtuous concubine out.

Xiao Junxi shook his head slightly and said, "you, why are you still so upset?" As he said this, he flashed a cold look in his eyes and hummed, "father and emperor, this is a combination of kindness and power. The virtuous concubines are the biological mother of the king of Qi. This time, they have made contributions, and father and emperor always want to express them. What's more, the only candidates he can consider now are me and the king of Qi. "

Xiao Junxi said so, Xie rucao immediately understood.

Xiao Junxi's biological mother was a former queen, and was fostered by her side; However, Xiao Junhan's biological mother is now in the cold palace. If she doesn't release her, it will not be able to achieve a check and balance from this point alone.

The reason why emperor Jing wanted a balance was that he had not decided to establish a prince.

Or, he has a candidate in his heart to test those who are ready to move behind his back.

No matter what the reason is, the virtuous concubine will be released. Just because she had made such a big mistake before, the imperial concubine's position could not be taken for granted, but it could not be too low. Therefore, a concubine's position was a plan carefully considered by Emperor Jing.

Xie rucao thought for a long time, then rubbed his forehead and said in distress, "things in this palace are really messy. After thinking for a while, his head is very big."
