The prince of Shu didn't expect things to turn out like this.

He felt that he had arranged it wisely. Although the time was in a hurry, and he didn't use a more secure plan to arrange the death of King Sanyang, he couldn't help it. Since the King of Shanyang was already suspicious of him, then he could not give the King of Shanyang a chance to go home and convey his suspicions to the others! It was convincing enough to let the King of Shanyang die because he was drunk and fell into the water. At that time, there were people from the city guards present, which was enough to prove that the king of Shanyang was not killed by someone, but died unexpectedly, and even had some meaning of looking for his own death.

As for how he hid under the windowsill that others couldn't see, taking advantage of the time when the king of Shanyang was delirious, he raised the other party's legs and pushed the other party out of the window, and after pushing it, he quickly crawled back to the position of the wine table, and then stood up and pretended that he was a step too late to rush to the window, and failed to save the person - anyway, no one saw it, and it would naturally always be a secret.

The prince of Shu thought that he had done a very thoughtful job, and even called a small song to come in, all to witness how much the king of Shanyang complained about his encounter, proving that the relationship between their uncle and nephew was very good, and it was impossible for him to attack his cousin. Princess Shanyang originally trusted him very much, but she was easily provoked by him to hate some people. He even felt that he could take advantage of the two words that King Shanyang shouted out under his intentional guidance before he fell, and poured a basin of sewage on Chu Zhengfang's body, which also brought a little trouble to the crown princess Tang clan. When the time comes, let his wife, the princess of the King of Shu, enter the palace to comfort and relieve the princess, and the princess will definitely be closer to and trust her.

However, the prince of Shu felt that no matter how well he planned, he could not resist the emperor's order, so he summoned relevant people to a court trial. Everyone recounts what they know to their faces, and whoever lies is easy for others to find out. The emperor and the crown prince seemed to be very fair, and the queen mother also put on a posture of wanting to be the master of Princess Shanyang, so that the prince of Shu himself could no longer reverse black and white and continue to fool Princess Shanyang. If it weren't for the fact that he was a little ambiguous when he spoke before, and now he could barely explain the past, maybe Princess Shanyang would have discovered that his words were wrong at this time, right?

But even so, the troubles of the prince of Shu are not less. Because he found that before he knew it, everyone present seemed to have begun to notice that there was something wrong with his role in the death of King Sanyo.

The king of Shanyang was in a bad mood? Only the prince of Shu knew about this, and he also said it. Although the small song of the restaurant confirmed that the king of Shanyang had indeed borrowed wine to drown his sorrows, it was all a year of resentment, and it did not happen today.

The king of Shanyang himself asked to go drinking? Only the prince of Shu knew about this, and he also said it. And when they made their decision, the man was in the carriage, and the attendants did not hear it. But they will choose the restaurant on the shore of Shichahai because the prince of Shu is a frequent visitor here, and he often comes when the weather is warm. But now the weather is still cold, under normal circumstances, who would go to the edge of the sea to eat the northwest wind? There are warm taverns in the inner city! If they had chosen to go elsewhere at that time, even if the king of Shanyang was drunk and went crazy there, he would not have been able to plunge headlong into the icy sea and freeze to death.

The king of Shanyang himself chose the private room upstairs near the water? This matter was said by the prince of Shu. It's just that according to the confession of the guy in the restaurant, the king of Shanyang had no requirements for the location of the private room at that time, and it was the prince of Shu who took the initiative to say that he liked to sit upstairs, facing the big window, looking at the scenery of Shichahai outside, and he would feel open-minded, and no matter how depressed he was, he would feel better. After hearing what he said, the king of Shanyang insisted on choosing the private room upstairs, and specially asked for a large window to see Haizi. In other words, the prince of Shu is a little evasive on this issue, and he is definitely not without responsibility for the death of King Shanyang.

The King of Shanyang himself borrowed wine to kill his sorrows, but he got drunk and went crazy? Everyone in the restaurant knew about this, even Chu Zhengfang and his subordinates also saw it. But even if the king of Shanyang has a lot of sorrow in his heart, he is not alone drinking there, but accompanied by the prince of Shu. Since the two of them are uncles and nephews, when the nephews see that their uncle has drunk too much, won't they try to persuade him? He thinks that his uncle is no longer young, and for the sake of his body, he should not drink too much, and if he persuades him more, the king of Shanyang may not get drunk to this field. But not only did he indulge the King of Shanyang, but he also kept asking the guys to send wine to the private room, which was a bit excessive, right? Everyone remembered the rumored grievances and entanglements between the two uncles and nephews, and looked at the prince of Shu with a little subtlety. As for Princess Shanyang, she had already shown a suddenly enlightened expression, and there was a faint poison in her eyes when she looked at the prince of Shu.

The interrogation conducted in front of the emperor has basically made it clear what happened before and after the death of King Shanyang. Except for the time when the prince of Shu was accompanied by the prince of Shu, how the king of Shanyang was drunk to the point of drunkenness, and the reason why the king of Shanyang suddenly jumped out of the window, everyone still didn't understand, and they already had a general idea of the cause and effect of the whole thing. What happened during that time, although the prince of Shu has explained it one by one, it sounds reasonable, ordinary people are drunk and crazy, and they often have unreasonable behaviors, and a sentence of drunkenness can explain everything. But I don't know if it was affected by the previous atmosphere and confession, everyone present faintly felt that the king of Shanyang died a little unjustly, but I am afraid that there is still the calculation of the prince of Shu here.

I just don't know what he calculated, whether the king of Shanyang directly lost his life, or suffered a loss, such as a hangover and a little sin, or a cold in the cold night for a few days, or said the wrong thing to let people spread out and offend a circle of people. Anyway, things just went wrong, and the life of King Shanyang was gone.

At the end of the trial, the emperor also asked Chu Zhengfang: "What does the king of Shanyang mean by yelling those words at Chu Qing? Could it be that he also threatened Chu Qing?"

Chu Zhengfang hurriedly said: "Back to the emperor, Weichen behaved and sat upright, and he had never had any dealings with the King of Shanyang, I don't know where the King of Shanyang started to speak." Originally, Weichen still had the heart to inquire, but it was a pity that before ...... could ask, the person died. Those who don't know think that he did it, in order to kill their mouths.

But God is pitiful! He really doesn't know when he provoked the King of Shanyang. Last night he was just leading the patrol as normal. Although he is the deputy commander of the palace, within the city guard, his prestige is far less than that of the orthodox leader Yunyang Hou. Moreover, he is the son of a high-ranking official, and his qualifications are a little shallow, so he is more or less the light of his relatives' status, so he sits in his current position. In order to convince the public, and to show that he was a good boss who could get along with his subordinates, so that he could win the support of more people, he would patrol the city with his men every few days. His home is near Shichahai, and patrolling in this area is also close, and it is more convenient to come home. There are also many high-ranking officials and nobles in the nearby residents, and once there is any conflict, it is difficult for ordinary city guard soldiers to suppress it, and with his identity, it is always better to speak than others. How did he know that such an inconspicuous little person as the King of Shanyang would suddenly jump out to find his bad luck?!

Chu Zhengfang was extremely depressed in his heart, but the King of Shanyang was dead, he wanted to defend himself, but he had nowhere to argue, and he couldn't even figure out what secrets the King of Shanyang knew about him, I was afraid that he could only eat this dumb loss.

However, the emperor didn't care if he suffered a loss, after asking Chu Zhengfang, all the questions that could be explained had been answered, and the remaining ones that could not be explained were all on the prince of Shu. The Emperor had no intention of asking any further. The conclusion reached by the Shuntian Mansion was that the king of Shanyang stumbled after drinking and fell into the water and died. Princess Shanyang accepted this crying and did not raise any objections. The clan also accepted this conclusion. Even if there were still doubts about the death of King Sanyo among those present, there was no evidence to say anything more.

The case was hastily closed. The emperor was merciful and decreed that the only son of the king of Shanyang was canonized as the eldest son of the king of Shanyang County, and ordered him to enter the sect to study after three years of filial piety, and wait until he reached the age of sixteen, and then inherit the title of the king of the county from his deceased father. This is the inheritance of the original level, and there is no need to be demoted, it is really the emperor's grace.

Princess Shanyang never thought of such a good thing, and she couldn't even cry, even if she kowtowed to the queen mother and the emperor, she thanked them again and again for their grace. The Queen Mother taught her a few more words, ordering her to live a good life with her children, raise her son to adulthood, and not raise her children to be drunk and drunk, and embark on the old road of her dead father.

Where did Princess Shanyang dare to indulge her son? She had already made up her mind in her heart that even if her son grew up, she would never allow him to drink a glass of wine!

It's just that she was surprised and grateful, but she still looked at the prince of Shu with resentment in her eyes. She had already decided that no matter whether the prince of Shu was intentional or unintentional, he was the culprit who killed her husband! He ordered the restaurant, he introduced the private room, and he invited the wine and food. But if he took the king of Shanyang to another restaurant, chose a private room that was not near the water, or did not persuade the king of Shanyang to drink all the time, she would not have suffered the pain of losing her husband, and her son would not have lost his father at a young age. Since he harmed it, this revenge, her mother and son will repay it sooner or later!

The prince of Shu sent away the mother and son of Princess Shanyang with a wooden face, feeling the suspicious gazes of the elders of the clan and the officials of the Zongren Mansion on him, and his heart was cold. He knew he had become a sinner in their minds. There was no evidence to prove that he had killed the King of Shanyang, but they were really irresponsible for allowing this suspicion to spread everywhere! They did not point at his nose and scold him to his face, but the consequences were even more serious than pointing at his nose and scolding him in person.

If this is a face-to-face accusation, he can still defend himself, he can cleverly declare his innocence, and he believes that he will be able to convince others.

But no one accused him of anything to his face, and even the elders of the clan patted him on the shoulder and asked him not to worry about Princess Shanyang, it was all an accident, and no one wanted it...... But everyone knows that few people believe this. They had already convicted him of his guilt in their hearts, but he had no room to defend himself.

How did things come to this?
