Chapter Twenty-Seven

The Junzi Sword was given to the Zhennan General Liu Zitong to guard the frontier for the Holy Emperor, and theoretically it could only be personally held by the Zhennan General and used for the major affairs of the frontier country.

However, it is normal for the holder to occasionally use it for personal use, and generally speaking, no one will compare that truth, after all, even the emperor has never said anything.

However, that can only be done in private, and of course it is not allowed on the surface.

Now that it has been pointed out by Yuan in public, and the gongs and drums are placed on the surface, the nature of this matter is completely different.

You must know that the private use of the imperial sword, compared to the real thing, this is indeed a capital crime of killing the head, and there is no room for negotiation. Even if the emperor originally planned to turn a blind eye for the sake of General Zhennan, it was impossible to ignore it once it became known to everyone.

"Your Majesty, the concubine dares to ask, what crime should Ye Nianchen be guilty of privately using the gentleman's sword you gave to General Zhennan?" Soon, Yuan knelt down directly to the emperor and asked loudly.

This kung fu, she is really not afraid of heaven and earth, the original weak appearance is long gone, her waist is straight, and her face is indescribably broken, as if she is going to die with Ye Nianchen.

The emperor frowned, paused for a moment, and said loudly: "If you use the sword privately, you should be killed!" ”

"Emperor Shengming, on the day Ye Nianchen returned to Beijing, his guards held a gentleman's sword against Princess Zhaohua, everyone knows about this matter, and the evidence is ironclad, please ask the emperor to punish him for his crimes, so as to set the record straight!" Yuan's words were bloody, and it seemed that he couldn't wait to kill Ye Nianchen now to relieve the hatred in his heart.

The surroundings were suddenly indescribably quiet, everyone looked at the emperor, subconsciously waiting for something, and at the same time, everyone couldn't help but sigh secretly, today's incident has become too unexpected.

Looking at this situation, Ye Nianchen is afraid that he will be severely punished, even if the emperor opens a page on the Internet to save his life, it is also a capital crime that can be avoided, and a living crime cannot be escaped.

After all, such a precedent cannot be opened, and once it is opened, the law of the future kingdom and the authority of the monarch will become empty talk and jokes!

Qin Haocheng's face turned white, his whole body collapsed tightly, staring at the emperor motionlessly, as if he was ready to rush out at any time to do something.

The prince looked at Ye Nianchen with a complicated expression, and this time he also felt worried about him.

Even the second prince was surprised, he didn't expect things to develop like this.

The Wushuang County Lord's expression was not very good-looking, only Ye Ruxue pretended to be worried on her face, but she had already smiled in her heart, and she almost didn't hold back several times.

Of course, there is another exception, and that is Gu Mingyi.

He still looked at it silently as if he didn't care about anything, but in the eyes of everyone, it was normal for the National Teacher to react like this.

"It turns out that the design to frame me or something is just a passing scene, and the real purpose is to kill me!"

At this moment, Ye Nianchen finally broke the terrible silence first, and suddenly said: "I just said how could you leave such a loophole for me to easily clear my name, it turns out that those are just your foreshadowing, used to push me into a real desperate situation step by step." ”

These words made Yuan Shi stunned, but he quickly reacted and sneered: "Yes, no, is it still meaningful to say this now?" Ye Nianchen, if you don't let me feel better, I won't let you go, everything is your own fault! ”

"Yuan, I have no life-and-death enmity with you, and I can't afford you to harm me by losing your future." Ye Nianchen sighed, as if he couldn't bear it: "Are you sure it's really worth it?" Are you sure that your sacrifice today will be rewarded with what you expect? Perhaps, in the end, in addition to affecting the reputation of the prince's mansion and even implicating the second prince, in the end you will just be a bamboo basket and a waste of water, harming others! ”

She didn't say anything explicitly, and even deliberately vaguely said it, but the voice outside the words was quite obvious, and she clearly avoided suspicion for the second prince, and there was something left, but anyone who was smart could guess a few points.

At this point, many people can also see that Yuan's purpose from beginning to end is to target Ye Nianchen and harm Ye Nianchen. It's just that it's not like the reason Yuan gave before, it's because of some jealousy.

At first glance, such a formation is prepared, a person who has nothing to do with Ye Nianchen at all, no hatred and no grievances, is desperate to do so much, unless it is instructed by someone, it is absolutely impossible to be so simple.

And the behind-the-scenes commander doesn't seem to be difficult to guess, and even has a feeling that he is about to come out, but no one will say it, even Ye Nianchen.

"Hmph, I don't know what you're talking about, don't think that by pulling this nonsense, you can wash away the iron-clad fact of using the sword for personal use!"

Yuan Shi was shocked in his heart, but he was not weak at all, and he already had a choice when he made the decision: "You better worry about yourself first, you committed a crime of beheading, and no one can cover you today!" ”

After that, the Yuan family simply ignored Ye Nianchen, and continued to kneel down righteously and ask the emperor to punish Ye Nianchen, so as to show the prestige of the monarch!

Many people were sweating for Ye Nianchen, and just when everyone thought that the emperor would definitely punish Ye Nianchen, a scene suddenly appeared that they didn't want to be stunned.

"Hahahaha......" The emperor seemed to finally couldn't help it, laughed, and after a while, he said to Ye Nianchen under the inexplicable gaze of everyone: "Nianchen girl, you explain it to the people present, I see if you don't say it again, Haocheng, this kid is probably going crazy." ”

"Yes!" Ye Nianchen smiled slightly, his gaze swept over the people who were completely confused about the situation at this moment, and finally fell on the frightened Yuan family.

She said calmly word by word: "Before Nianchen returned to Beijing, on the order of my uncle, I brought the Junzi Sword back to the capital and returned it to the court. Uncle guards the border passes, thanks to the royal gentleman's sword shock over the years, so he can get twice the result with half the effort. Now that southern Xinjiang has stabilized, my uncle has long wanted to return the Junzi Sword, so that it can be used in other places to be of greater use. It's a pity that I haven't had the opportunity to return to Beijing in the past few years, so I took the opportunity of Nianchen to return to Beijing and let me bring it back. ”

"As for the day I returned to Beijing, Nianchen's guards habitually wanted to protect me because of their eagerness to protect the master, so I forgot that I was holding the sword of the Guardian Gentleman in my hand. Later, after settling down, Nianchen asked the guards to entrust the Junzi Sword to the officials of the Ministry of War to forward it to Yu Sheng, and explained to us that he had no intention of offending the Junzi Sword that day. ”

Ye Nianchen was articulate, and quickly explained the matter neatly, and finally looked at the emperor and said respectfully: "Thank you for the emperor's forgiveness for my mistakes that day, the emperor is merciful!" ”

"Okay, you don't have to put a high hat on me, you escort the gentleman's sword all the way back to Beijing on behalf of Liu Aiqing, and the merits and demerits will be offset, and I will not be rewarded or punished."

After the emperor said that, he waved his hand to the guards and said: "What are you still doing in a daze, take the Yuan family down according to the orders of the second prince, without the holy decree, you will not be allowed to step out of Lintai'an for half a step for life!" ”

Jun has no jokes, as soon as this statement comes out, the fate of the Yuan family is a foregone conclusion, and no one can change it from then on.

Seeing that the Yuan family was quickly dragged away by the guards, and even didn't have time to cry for half a sound, many people realized that today's matter was the real end.

The emperor didn't investigate anything more, let alone blame anyone for implicating him, but directly used his actions to show that the matter was over!

With the order to "swim in the lake", everything seems to return to the original as if nothing had happened, and the fun is still going on.
