Chapter 24: Success

After Shen Ke received the letter sent by Jiyue, he was a little dignified, and hurriedly called Shen Ruhao to the study to discuss together.

"What do you mean?"

Shen Ruhao is also dignified.

This matter is not trivial, if you take a wrong step, the Shen family will also be doomed.

Shen Ke shook his head: "No, I'm afraid this is not what Chun'er meant, but what the emperor meant." ”

Shen Ruhao was thoughtful.

"What does Father think?"

Shen Ke's eyes flashed, he took the fire fold from the desk, lit the candlestick, and the letter in his hand was swallowed by the flames and quickly turned into ashes.

"It is not impossible to advance by retreating and protecting oneself. ”

As Bai Zhen thought, Xu Yong, the old fox, pretended to be innocent in the court, and even did not hesitate to cut off his supporters.

And many adults spoke for Xu Yong.

Wei Chi's eyes were like torches, and he stood in the hall with the momentum of one person, fearless: "Lord Xu said that it was the county magistrate who did evil in your name, so Zhaoxi is too protective of Chen Yi, what do you explain?"

Xu Yong's back was cold, and he wiped a cold sweat, what is going on with this Chen Yi? He has clearly dealt with it.

Although he was beating a drum in his heart, he still forced his composure: "I don't know what Lord Wei said?"

Wei Chi sneered, and a stack of letters popped out of his arms: "Here is evidence of the crimes of Zhaoxi Taishou Chen Yi and Xu Lingjun privately conferred and received from each other, and crossed the sea, please look at it." ”

The letter was taken by Tokunaga and presented to Bai Zhen.

Bai Zhen glanced at the ten lines, and after reading it, he was furious, and asked: "Xu Yong, what else do you have to say?"

Xu Yong was really panicked now, where did this come out of a Chen Yi, in a panic, he remembered the identity of this Zhaoxi Taishou.

"Your Majesty Mingjian, the minister and Chen Yi don't know each other, and they have never done those things, this Chen Yi is clearly Shen Xiang's protégé, Lord Wei is probably the wrong person!"

Xu Yong pretended to be smart, and he wanted to cause trouble, but unfortunately his reaction was all expected by Wei Chi.

Wei Chi tugged at the corners of his mouth.

This expression made the cunning Xu Yong feel bad.

I saw that Shen Ke, who had never expressed his position, stood up and arched his hand: "Chen Yi is the most outstanding student of the minister, doing this kind of thing, the minister is heartbroken, Chen Yi was confused for a while, but fortunately, he repented in time and took the initiative to return to the case, and I hope that His Majesty will take it lightly for the sake of the minister." ”

Voluntarily brought to justice?

Hearing this, Xu Yong of course also understood that he had fallen into Wei Chi's trap.

It's just that he never expected that Wei Chi could even persuade Shen Ke, who has never stood in line, to deal with him together, and even did not hesitate to fold his proud protégé.

Xu Yong couldn't argue, he knew that he was planted this time.

thought that he had been immersed in officialdom for many years, but he was put on a scene by a fledgling junior.

He was not the only one who had such thoughts, and several eyes shot towards Wei Chi, and he said in his heart that this person was definitely not a good person.

Wei Chi straightened his back, motionless as a mountain, awe-inspiring.

And this scene also fell into the eyes of the frost hidden on a huge tree outside the temple.

She was ordered by Shen Ruojiao to pay close attention to the progress of the case, and she was a master of art and boldness, and she was a careless person, even daring to break into the Jinluan Palace.

She had heard in the past that most of these officials were full of brains, playing with power, and the common people, but when she saw Wei Chi today, she realized that it was not the case at all.

There are such good people who are officials.

Besides, this Wei Chi was also handsome......

Izushi shook his head, horrified at what he had just thought.

Shen Ruojiao sat in front of the chess game, listening to the news from the frost, while playing against himself.

"So, Xu Yong's vein has all been hit?"

Due to the presence of human and material evidence, Xu Yong was dismissed on the spot and sent to prison.

In addition, all the officials on the bright side of Xu Yong's line were demoted, and none of them were spared.

Bai Zhen handed over Xu Yong's case to Dali Temple and Yushitai for trial together, but he was afraid that more people would be implicated.

This is undoubtedly a major change in the current situation between the DPRK and China.

Xu Yong's vein has a close relationship with King Jingyang and Liu Jian, and for these two, this case is a heavy blow.

Since Bai Zhen ascended the throne, he has been intentionally or unintentionally attacking powerful ministers and recovering power, but they are all small fights, and such a big move is the first time.

This blow was enough to hurt King Jingyang and Liu Jian's vitality.

Shen Ruojiao snorted lightly and dropped the white son in his hand.

On the chessboard, the white son is already encircled, and no matter how the black son struggles, it is already a game that will fall.

"Lady, do I still need to inquire?"

Frost asked with bright eyes.

Shen Ruojiao tilted her head and wondered, "Isn't it already over?"

"Yes......" Frost hung her head in disappointment.

Shen Ruojiao looked at the frost with such a demeanor and thoughtfully.

In the Xuanjing Palace, there is a joyful atmosphere.

"This time I pulled out the diseased tooth, and Feicheng contributed a lot. Bai Zhen already trusted Wei Chi and called him kindly.

Wei Chi is Mrs. Chen's protégé, and speaking of which, he is still from the same school.

Mrs. Chen spoke highly of this person.

"Etiquette and music, the minister of the humerus. ”

If Bai Zhen was still skeptical at first, now he really admires Wei Chi.

In today's world, everyone advocates power, and there are people who take the right path as their own responsibility, dare to face the powerful and fearless, and can really be described as warriors.

Wei Chi said respectfully: "The minister didn't dare to take credit, this time fortunately Shen Xiang gave up and helped, otherwise Xu Yong would not have confessed so easily." ”

Their plan is very easy to succeed, but it is not easy to implement.

Xu Yong is not a person who sits idly by, and if he cannot refute those perjury, he needs more convincing witnesses.

And now above the court, the official rank is above Xu Yong, and there is no neutral person in the camp, only Shen Ke is the only one.

Wei Chi was also surprised that Shen Ke would agree to cooperate.

In his opinion, Shen Ke has always remained neutral, no one is offended, no one supports, it is a mediocre but scoundrel choice.

If Shen Ke's position can be made clearer, then their side will have a better chance of winning.

"Shen Xiang was promoted by the first emperor to achieve today's achievements, why doesn't Your Majesty recount the past with Shen Xiang?" Wei Chi proposed.

Bai Zhen lowered his eyes, noncommittal.

"Today's birthday, Shen Xiang is also among the guests at the banquet, and the minister and the mother are willing to share the worries of His Majesty. ”

Shen Kefang cooperated with Wei Chi, and now he is invited, although he is reluctant, it is not good to save Wei Chi's face.

At the banquet, he looked like he was rejecting people thousands of miles away, which also saved him a lot of unnecessary trouble.

It was at this time that Wei Chi came over with a wine bottle.

"Shen Xiang. Wei Chi said.

Shen Ke was not enthusiastic, and smiled faintly.

"I heard that Shen Xiang loves calligraphy and painting, and he happened to get the famous Yuchen monk Mobao, and I wanted to invite Shen Xiang to enjoy it. Wei Chi said sincerely.

Shen Ke said in his heart that he was just looking at the calligraphy and paintings, not to mention that he didn't stretch out his hand and didn't hit the smiling person, so he didn't refuse, got up and left the table together.

The Wei Mansion is fresh and elegant, and the path leading to the backyard is lined with verdant bamboo.

Walking on the road, Wei Chi suddenly spoke: "Shen Xiang thinks, how about this piece of green bamboo cultivated by Chi himself?"

Shen Ke didn't know why Wei Chi asked, and replied cautiously: "The high wind and bright festival are just like flying horses." ”

Wei Chi shook his head and smiled: "Chi didn't think so much, but Chi planted this piece of green bamboo with his own hands, looking forward to the day when the green bamboo can also reach the sky, shelter from the wind and rain for Chi's backyard, who knows that the longer this green bamboo is, the more sparse it is, it is more precious than people, Chi thought, instead of leaving this piece of pretending to be elegant green bamboo, it is better to cut it down and exchange it for other tree species." ”

Wei Chi's words sounded meaningful, and Shen Ke felt strange in his heart, so he only smiled dryly: "It's okay, it's okay." ”

While speaking, he had already arrived at Wei Chi's study.

The lights were bright inside, and Wei Chi pushed open the door and made a gesture of please.

"Shen Xiang, Chi won't go in. ”

Shen Ke was suddenly taken aback: "What does this mean?"

But I heard a familiar voice from inside: "It's windy outside, why don't Shen Xiang go into the house and talk about it?"
