Qianlong, who has always attached importance to face, became even more gloomy for a while.

Seeing this, Ah Gui was busy talking.

At this time, a voice sounded in front of him: "Long live Qiyu, Lord Yinglian has been suffering from dementia for some reason since the trial in the court two months ago, and those who get this disease do not know everything, everyone does not know, and their minds are no different from ignorant children, so there is disrespect, it is definitely not out of the original intention, and please calm the anger of the Holy One." ”

It was He Shen who spoke.

He also lowered his head, and his tone was calm, and he could not hear any emotion.

Qianlong naturally would not be ignorant of this matter, but if it was about understanding and sympathy, he would never be able to show the criminal who colluded with the White Lotus Sect to rebel and assassinate.

Ding Tao pondered his mind very thoroughly, and said: "As far as the minister knows, the so-called nerdness disease mostly occurs in the old and mentally decrepit, and Feng Yinglian is only just over fifty years old this year, and he has always been clear-minded, but he can also suffer from this disease, if this matter is said, I am afraid it is difficult for anyone to believe it - looking at it this way, it is not impossible to see that the crime has been convicted, and it is impossible to get rid of the crime, so he has resorted to such a clumsy bitter plan!"

Some of the other officials also secretly whispered in agreement.

For a while, everyone's eyes fell on Feng Yinglian, either sarcastic or exploratory.

seemed to realize that he had become the focus of everyone's attention, and Feng Yinglian didn't dare to move for a while.

Qianlong was also looking at him.

What Lord Ding said is not unreasonable. "There is another voice 'echoing' Ding Tao, but following the sound, it is He Shen.

Before everyone could be puzzled, they listened to him and then said: "According to the usual situation of Lord Yinglian, it is true that he should not suffer from this kind of hysteria. ”

Someone secretly "snorted".

This ability to 'transfer flowers and trees' at the same time is really fast enough.

Ding Tao was a little stunned for a moment.

"I'll let people find out about this. Qianlong glanced at He Shen, then looked at Liu Yong, and said, "According to the rules, what should be tried is judged, and what should be asked." ”

Liu Yong lowered his head and replied with a "hey", and then subconsciously looked outside the hall.

still hasn't seen Feng Jiwen appear for a long time.

It's already this hour.

And even if she came at this time, without a token and no hand, she would not be able to enter the palace at all.

And there is no commandment, and there is no qualification for connecting to the transmission.

Liu Yong sighed in his heart, so he had to withdraw his thoughts, holding the file that he had sorted out overnight, and looked at He Shen and Feng Yinglian who were kneeling in the hall.

"After the impeachment of Qian Feng, the imperial historian of the Imperial Procuratorate of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the prisoner Feng Yinglian, as the minister of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, colluded with the remnants of the White Lotus Sect and the anti-minister Yuan Shoutong to plot to assassinate the Holy Driver, as evidenced by letters, and even confessed to the White Lotus Sect traitors who were detained in the case - this move is to rebel against the monarch!" He solemnly condensed and asked, "Feng Yinglian, can you plead guilty?"

In the two court trials, Feng Yinglian did not admit guilt, but he also did not produce evidence to prove his innocence.

Until the day of the Taimiao, Feng Jiwen took the risk to see the holy driver, asked for a two-month deadline, and asked for a retrial.

Today is the two-month period, and Feng Jiwen, as a key figure, has not appeared.

"......" has heard a lot, Feng Yinglian probably knows that his name is called 'Feng Yinglian', at this time listening to Liu Yong's interrogation, he didn't know how to answer, in a panic, but he subconsciously looked at He Shen on his side.

Instinctively aware of danger, his eyes filled with fear.

He Shen looked at him for a moment, and his deep pupils were full of calming power.

"I am afraid that Lord Yinglian will not be able to answer this question at the moment. He said in a respectful but calm tone: "Since the facts of the case are the same, and they can be judged together, it is better for the criminal to answer on behalf of Lord Yinglian." ”

Liu Yong looked at Qianlong.

Although he is the main judge, Qianlong is here, and he does not dare to make any decisions without authorization.

"That's right. ”

Seeing this courtier who once shared his worries and difficulties, went up to military affairs, and talked about poetry and painting, all of which won his heart, and now he has been reduced to a prisoner on the charge of anti-thief, Qianlong has both anger and complicated feelings in his heart.

"Lord Yinglian is not guilty. He Shen's tone was unhesitating.

Cheng Cheng, the Imperial History of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, while sorting out the 'testimony' of Feng Yinglian and He Shen's rebellion, asked disapprovingly: "There is no basis for what you say, but there is evidence?"

He Shen pleaded not guilty, and Lord Yinglian was not guilty. ”

"Then you can come up with evidence!" Hearing this, Cheng Qiran raised his voice a little.

He Shen slowly kowtowed, and his voice was smooth and earnest: "Your Majesty, He Shen is not guilty-"

Qianlong pursed his lips slightly.

"There are all the human and material evidence, even the staff and gentlemen in your house have come forward to testify and expose it!" Qianlong vaguely hated iron and steel, and asked in a deep voice: "In vain, I appreciate you and value you in every way, but you have done such a disobedient thing - Yuan Shoutong in the front, Feng Yinglian and you in the back, you are talking to me about how many benefits the White Lotus Sect has promised you!"

The White Lotus Sect has always been his deepest taboo, a nightmare that makes him unable to sleep at night, and the deep belief and responsibility, and the revelation of He Shen's rebellion really made him feel that no one was available, and he was so angry.

He Shen misses Long En's might, and he has never dared to forget it one day. He Shen still bowed his head, and his words were extremely respectful as usual: "The minister is wronged, and I implore the emperor not to be deceived by others." ”

Hearing that he opened his mouth and closed his mouth and refused to admit his guilt, but there was no evidence to refute it, Qianlong only felt that he was cheeky and hard-mouthed, and his anger was even stronger for a while.

"You still dare to shout grievances in front of me!"

He waved his sleeve and swept away the stack of folds in his hand.

The book was scattered along the imperial steps, and the place was in a mess, causing the hundred officials to change color one after another.

The cold sweat on Ah Gui's forehead slid to his ears, and he felt anxious.

Feng Yinglian was also silent, full of panic.

He really wanted to get out of this place full of strangers as soon as possible, and he even felt that the prison of Dali Temple was more reassuring to him than the gorgeous and solemn place.

He Shen's expression did not change, he only lowered his head a little, and said in a slightly solemn tone: "The minister is not vain, please ask the emperor to calm his anger." ”

Still 'hard-mouthed'.

But you can show up the evidence.

Ding Tao had a sneer in his eyes.

Since working with He Shen, he thinks he knows that He Shen is a bit clever - judging by his style of conduct, he will never use these meaningless words again and again to anger the emperor.

This He Shen knows the emperor's joys and wits better than anyone else.

And the reason why he did this was undoubtedly to delay time and wait for Feng Jiwen to come over.

Thinking of Jingren Palace's explanation, Ding Tao pulled the corners of his mouth, and there was a hint of strategizing in his eyes.

His eyes locked on He Shen's face, and he saw that he still had no intention of panicking, which could be called calm.

The end of the crossbow.

Dare to put chips on a stupid woman who is powerless and uninformed, but it doesn't necessarily mean how smart he is.

He wanted to see what kind of heavenly skills he had to use to get his wife, who had died last night, to come and save his life.
