576 Severe punishment

Aunt Lin looked at the ground, was silent for a moment, and tears suddenly rolled down. "I, I only had hatred for the Zhao family in my heart in those years, you didn't know the tragic situation in King Chen's mansion at that time, I thought he would be fine in the Han family, who knows-" She took a breath, stabilized her mind, and said, "I also only found out not long ago." When the sun came down, I didn't have the face to see the prince and the princess. ”

"You don't have to." Shen Yan said sincerely: "Strictly speaking, you are not from the Xiao family, and what you have done is enough for us to treat you as a relative, and the prince and princess will only be grateful to you." ”

Aunt Lin raised her eyes to look at her, suddenly shook her head, and turned her face away.

Shen Yan looked at her back for a while, and said: "There is a sentence I wanted to say for a long time, I think your concern for our lord has gone beyond the feelings of a subordinate to his master, and I take the liberty of asking, are you really the maid next to the county lord?" ”

Aunt Lin's delicate back paused, and when she turned around, the tears on her face had not dried, but she was already calm.

She bowed her head and said: "Although the county lord is not the princess's biological daughter, their relationship is so good that they are no different from their own mother and daughter, and because they are about the same age, on the contrary, they have more to say." The county lord is not good at female red, it was the princess who invited the embroidery girl to teach, and the princess's martial arts and agency skills have also been passed on to the county lord. ”

Princess Chen has a good relationship with her stepchildren, which Shen Yan has heard from Fahrenheit for a long time, and she can't find any loopholes in these words.

She smiled and said nothing.

She didn't say that she wouldn't force it, but Xin Yi could have that reaction when she saw her. Then sooner or later she'll find out.

"I'm glad you can stay with us, if there's anything missing, just let someone tell me or do it yourself. Jing Luo especially don't treat him harshly here, Brother Yun is also very active, before the emperor sends someone to take him back to the palace, he can let Brother Yun accompany him. ”

"Thank you grandma for your thoughtfulness." She bent down to thank her.

Shen Yan smiled: "You rest, I'll go back to the room first." And in the future, you don't have to bow to me, so it looks raw. ”

Zhao Jun had already rested, and the eunuch suddenly crept in again, and said through the screen: "Your Majesty." Lord Han Ji is here. ”

Zhao Jun paused. Lu Minglan sat up, "It's so late, why is he still here?" ”

"I don't know." Zhao Jun shook his head and got out of bed. "I'll take a look."

Lu Minglan tied the button belt for him. and turned on the candlelight at the bedside. I saw him out.

Zhao Jun arrived at the front hall, and Han Ji also happened to enter the door here, and when he saw him, he wanted to knock on the ground and ask for guilt. Zhao Jun waved his hand, pointed to Yudun'er on the side and said, "No need to be polite, sit down first and talk about what is important?" ”

Han Ji sat down and said bluntly: "Jing Luo and Aunt Lin encountered an accident in Zhuangzi, and the two of them have already arrived at Han's house.

When Zhao Jun heard that it was about Jing Luo, he immediately changed color, "You mean Mei Niang-" Only then did he feel that he had revealed his stuffing, but then thinking about it, since Han Ji could say it directly, he naturally already knew the truth, so he said: "How are they now, how can they encounter an accident?" How did you find the Han family? ”

Han Ji arched his hand, "Aunt Lin is very good, neither of them was injured, as for how to encounter someone chasing and killing, the minister is also puzzled." The minister and the inner son were worried that they would encounter danger outside, so they entered the palace to find the emperor, first, to ask where the killer might come from, and secondly, to ask the emperor to get an idea, is it possible to take the eldest prince into the palace as soon as possible? ”

When Zhao Jun heard this big prince, his face was quite unnatural, which was the same feeling as making a mistake when he was a child and being discovered by an adult.

What's more, he hid from Jing Luo or went towards Han Ji, since they knew about him, they must now know what they were thinking.

He was about to speak, but Han Ji was silent for a moment, but he had already spoken first: "The emperor doesn't ask, why did Aunt Lin find the Han family?" ”

Zhao Jun paused, nodded, and frowned: "You say, why is this?" ”

Han Ji looked at him fixedly: "That's because Aunt Lin is from King Chen's mansion." ”

"I know." Zhao Jun said, "She stayed in the palace for a while. But she's with you—"

"The minister is also from the Chen Palace." Han Ji said slowly.

Zhao Jun's body stiffened suddenly, "What do you mean?" ”

"The minister is the orphan of King Chen and Princess Chen."

The speed of his speech was calm and slow, but in Zhao Jun's ears, it was like thunder.

King Chen's orphan?! He really is......

Zhao Jun's hands suddenly felt a chill, he clenched his fists, and said, "Are you really the son of King Chen?" ”

He used to guess this possibility, he knew Han Ji when he was a child, and he had the impression that he was spirited, smart, and measured, but he was never restrained, he was the best among all the powerful children, but he was not necessarily a maverick, such a person was in line with his imagination of the children of King Chen's mansion, but now when he told him that he was really the son of King Chen, he was a little difficult to accept!

"So the purpose of your efforts to support me to ascend the throne is to avenge the Chen Wangfu, so that you can recognize your ancestors and return to your ancestors openly?"

Han Ji bowed slightly, "The minister thinks that from the minister's position, there is nothing wrong with doing this." ”

Zhao Jun's fists clenched tighter, and his face sank, "Why didn't you make it clear to me in the first place?" ”

"The minister didn't say that he was concerned about the safety of the Han family, as for why he kept it from now, it was the same as the emperor's refusal to bring the eldest prince into the palace."

Zhao Jun's face was as pale as ice, and his fists clenched with a clenching sound.

It's not that he's really angry because he's a descendant of the Xiao family, but because he's actually being used by him, he also has self-esteem, even if he's alone and doesn't have any power to borrow, he doesn't want to be their puppet! No one wants to be led by the nose, and his grand deed, which he did for turned out to be just a fulfillment of him Han Ji!

He clenched his back molars, and there was a chill in his voice: "You deliberately deceived the king, I will severely punish you!" ”

Han Ji knelt down in his robe and took off his crown: "The minister's adoptive father originally planned to enter the palace tomorrow to explain and ask the emperor for his guilt, but the minister thinks it is better for me to explain it to the emperor myself." The minister is willing to give up his title and official position, just to be able to recognize his ancestors and return to his hometown, and ask the emperor not to implicate innocents, so he is satisfied. ”

Zhao Jun looked at him, his face showing an anger that he had never seen before.

Shen Yan didn't fall asleep in the room, and kept waiting for Han Ji to come back.

But the bangs rang again and again, and there was still no sound outside the door. When the white belly of the fish appeared on the horizon, the footsteps outside the door sounded. Shen Yan got up as soon as she could, and the Qing Dai at the door lifted the curtain faster than her, and in a blink of an eye, she whispered excitedly: "Ye Ke is back!" Grandma has been looking forward to it! ”

Shen Yan stomped his shoes to the door, and as soon as he saw him striding in, his eyes stayed on his bald bun.

"The emperor cut you?"

"I invited it." Han Ji sat down, "I think even if I don't ask to leave the court, he will probably do it, it is better for me to propose it myself, so it can also leave some room for the people around us." From now on, I will not be the prince of Wei Guogong, and Jingluo will also be accepted into the palace tomorrow, so we are really free now. ”

Shen Yan paused, exhaled and sat down, she was not too surprised, Han Ji's matter is big or small, Zhao Jun has not punished him much, if he is replaced by Emperor Chengqing, I am afraid that he will already be in prison by this time.

"If the official is gone, it will be gone, we already have the bottom anyway, and it is better to be able to crown the ancestor's surname than anything else." Shen Yan comforted him for his loss.

Han Ji squeezed her hand, "I'll announce this to my family early tomorrow morning, and now, I'll go to Xin Yi to talk about it first." Rest quickly. ”

Shen Yan nodded, watched him go out, turned back to the bed, sighed, and closed his eyes.

The next morning was particularly lively, Han Ji went to Rongxi Hall, and the whole house knew that he entered the palace last night to ask for his resignation, and Mrs. Tai also rushed to Rongyi Hall when she heard the news, scolding him for being confused, but she couldn't continue. Wei Guogong's face was full of anger, but in the face of the calm Han Ji, all the complaints were like fists hitting cotton.

Probably everyone expected this result, and when it finally came true, it was difficult for everyone to bear the separation behind it.

Wei Guogong immediately summoned Gu Zhicheng and others into the palace after he was angry, and wanted to intercede for Han Ji, but Zhao Jun didn't give them a chance to speak at all, and entered the imperial garden in the next court, and did not come out again on this day.

The next day it was the same again.

After three or five days, finally the elders and the Shen family and the Hua family also knew about it, Hua Juncheng was so angry that he scolded Zhao Jun in the mansion, thinking that even if he could no longer inherit the title of the Han family, at least he would have meritorious service in the imperial court, at least the post of general could be sealed. And if it weren't for Han Ji taking the lead in helping him to take the position, he wouldn't know what would happen to him now!

Shen Mi listened to him talk more and more, and hurriedly pulled him back to the room to drink and divert the topic.

The Shen family's reaction to this was calm, Shen Guanyu didn't say anything, and Shen Mi didn't say anything. Even after the incident, they had never come to the Han family, and no one thought that the things that had been agreed upon would change because of the arrival of Aunt Lin's Jingluo, but no one felt that there was anything wrong with this, Han Ji only lost his official position, his life was already safe, and the Han family was not at risk.

Although Zhao Jun agreed to Han Ji's request on the spot and took him captive and became a commoner, he did not immediately issue an order to abolish his title. Han Ji confessed to telling the truth, so the rumors on the street were even more magical.

Five days later, Zhao Jun finally revealed Jingluo's identity in the court, and sent hundreds of guards to take him back to the palace.

Jing Luo was reluctant to separate in every way, but after Lin Meiniang's kind words and persuasion in the morning, he still cried and got on the sedan chair.

Zhao Jun changed him back to the surname Zhao, gave him the title of King Yan, lived in Zhongcui Palace, and entered the genealogy at the same time. (To be continued......)
