Chapter 173: Confronting the Temple
When Shen Liancheng returned to the Founding County Mansion, he asked people to hand over a post to Ci'an Palace, intending to enter the palace early tomorrow morning to meet the princess. γLatest chapter reading. She wanted to use her aunt's status as a concubine to suppress those noble ladies who were open-mouthed.
For the princess, this is just a matter of words. When those ladies who have orders enter the palace to greet them, they can "suppress" them with the fury of thunder, and they can set an example.
And the person who sent the post just left on the front foot, but there was a sedan chair in the Luan Qing Hall in the palace on the back foot.
Summoned by the Son of Heaven.
The Son of Heaven suddenly summoned him, and he didn't know what he was talking about. If it was for the sake of Prince Rong's "collusion" with Chen Guogong's words at noon and wanted to ask Shen Liancheng about it, then this matter would spread too quickly.
Li Ji had drunk too much wine and was already asleep at the moment. Shen Liancheng tidied up his appearance, and calmly followed the people who came to pick him up.
In the Luanqing Palace, Prince Rong Yu Wenyan was also there. He was kneeling before the temple at this moment. And Yu Wenlie, the son of heaven, is exactly the displeased appearance of Long Yan.
Shen Liancheng was a little surprised, and with a little caution and prudence, he bowed to the Son of Heaven. Yu Wenlie didn't call her to be flat, so she knelt quietly.
"Aman, King Gu asked you, you have to answer King Gu truthfully, how did you know that Prince Rong colluded with Chen Guogong three times and twice?"
Yu Wenlie's eyes were cold, and his words were heavy. Even if he didn't look at it, Shen Liancheng also knew what kind of sternness his face should be at the moment.
The news really spread so fast! And when it was transmitted to the Son of Heaven, it became a real "collusion". No wonder Long Yan was displeased, no wonder Prince Rong was still kneeling.
Hehe! Do you dare to provoke her Shen Liancheng in the future? As for the question of the Son of Heaven, Shen Liancheng had already been prepared, so he was naturally calm.
She moistened her throat before she said solemnly: "The bride did not say that Prince Rong colluded with Chen Guogong, and asked Your Majesty to find out." β
When Prince Rong heard this, he was a little surprised. The Son of Heaven was unhappy, and his voice became deeper, "At the banquet in Xiangfu at noon, didn't you say such a thing?" β
"Back to Your Majesty, at the banquet, the noble ladies who are good friends with the Xiang clan have repeatedly said that the union of the bride and the husband is to marry, and from time to time there are foul language, the bride is angry, so she asked Prince Rong why he wanted to take Chen Guogong for his own use three times and twice, so as to create everyone's speculation, so as to make the Xiang family uneasy."
"So you're talking nonsense, inexplicably speculating about the royal family?!" After listening to Shen Liancheng's eloquent story about the whole story, Yu Wenlie became even more annoyed, and suddenly shouted: "You are so bold!" β
This loud shout, even the people of Zhao Temple in the hall also pinched a cold sweat for Shen Liancheng. How could the clever and well-behaved Shen Aman in the past do such a foolish thing? Isn't this unpleasant to find the Son of Heaven?
Prince Rong Yu Wenyan was surprised again, almost thinking that he had heard it wrong.
Shen Liancheng was on the ground, unhurried, and said slowly: "The bride doesn't dare." The bride is not talking nonsense. β
"Oh? What do you mean by that? The Son of Heaven glanced at Prince Rong, and his fiery temper was immediately extinguished, and he was very much looking forward to Shen Liancheng's next words.
Prince Rong's mood was like crossing a single-plank bridge, swaying from side to side, unable to find balance.
"It is true that Chen Guogong saved Prince Rong's life, and it is true that Prince Rong wants to thank Chen Guogong again, and it is also true that he intends to take it for his own use. The bride did not dare to say a lie, hoping that His Majesty would see it. Shen Liancheng said, and his head was even more attached to the cold slate bricks.
"Your Majesty," Prince Rong hurriedly explained, "what Mrs. Li Shizi said is true, but the courtier's brother wants to take Chen Guogong for his own use, and it is indeed because he saved the courtier's brother's life in the fire, and the courtier's brother has the heart to love talents." At that time, the younger brother didn't even know who he was. β
"When Chen Guogong set up a banquet in his mansion, why did Prince Rong annoy him and kill one of your guards?"
How did she know? At that time, she didn't seem to be in Kyoto, right? Yu Wenlie was shocked again. But he knew that the top priority was to dispel the Son of Heaven's suspicion of him, and naturally he couldn't let him think too much.
"Your Majesty, that time the courtier just wanted to be good friends with him. Chen Guogong has to be so reused by His Majesty, the powerful people in Kyoto, who doesn't want to get closer to him? Your Majesty, your brother has no intention of colluding with him. "Bow down, full of loyalty.
The entire hall was silent for a while. The two who were on their knees did not know what they were thinking about sitting in the high hall.
"Let's all be flat!" Yu Wenlie finally returned to his old tone. Such a tone of voice sounded gentle to those present.
Shen Liancheng lowered his eyebrows, looking like he didn't care about himself. Although Yu Wenyan breathed a sigh of relief, she was by no means as comfortable as her. What the Son of Heaven thinks, he doesn't know yet!
And no matter what the Son of Heaven thinks at the moment, he will have to hold on to his tail and be a good prince for a long time to come, otherwise, I am afraid that he will end up like several other Wang brothers.
"You said that someone at the Xiangfu banquet slandered your husband?" Yu Wenlie looked at Shen Liancheng and suddenly spoke, not without concern for her.
"Yes." Shen Liancheng took the opportunity to reply, "They said that my husband is useless, he wants to be rich or not, he wants to be rich or not." It was even said that there was no clarity between the bride and Chen Guogong. β
I don't know about this with Chen Guogong...... Yu Wenlie only felt that he was powerless, but to say that her husband was incompetent was a bit tricky.
"Li Shizi is the brother of Lonely King Aiji and Mrs. Li! Who are they? How dare you say that about him? The deliberate anger in his words was made for Yu Wenyan to see.
Shen Liancheng thought about it and reported the names of several noble ladies.
After hearing this, Yu Wenlie looked at Yu Wenyan, and said in a soothing tone: "Brother Wang, you should let Mrs. Xiang take care of this matter." β
"Yes, my brother knows his mistake." Yu Wenyan respectfully bowed his hand and replied respectfully.
The Son of Heaven is willing to call the shots for Shen Liancheng, even if he still has some affection. In this way, let the princess add more heat, and see who else dares to make up nonsense in front of her!
"It's a misunderstanding, let's step aside." Yu Wenlie knew it in his heart, and finally released him.
The two of them came to the outside of Luan Qing Hall one after the other, and Yu Wenyan suddenly turned around and looked at Shen Liancheng with a serious expression.
Shen Liancheng glanced at him, only to feel that he looked like he was going to press himself to the ground and beat him violently, and he couldn't help but feel a little jealous. But she still mustered up her courage and said not to be outdone: "If people don't offend me, I won't offend people, the prince should have managed his mother's family a long time ago." β
When Yu Wenyan heard this, he suddenly hooked the corners of his lips, showed his bright eyes and bright teeth, was open-minded and generous, and said sincerely: "Thank you, Madame, for showing mercy in front of the Son of Heaven, so as not to push this king to the land of right and wrong."
