The emperor's gaze was cold.

Prime Minister Rong cried whenever he encountered something, and he began to cry from the first day he ascended the throne, and he had been crying for more than ten years, so now he has no fluctuations in his heart and even wants to laugh a little.

Fortunately, Rong Zhejiu did not inherit his Lao Tzu's temperament.

He thought about it, and raised his eyes to look at Shen Changfeng again.

He wears a blue embroidered silver brocade robe, the python on the robe is majestic, and the palm-wide gold belt makes him jade tree in the wind, and his demeanor is outstanding.

That face......

The eyes are the peach blossom eyes unique to the Darong royal family, but they are a little more flattering, and the raised tails of the eyes are very similar to that woman.

Even if she has been on the battlefield, her skin is still fair, just like that woman, she can't tan at all.

A cinnabar tear mole at the end of her left eye adds a bright color, and her naturally smiling lips are exactly the same as hers......

The emperor's eyes were full of emotion, but he quickly suppressed it.

His voice couldn't hear the slightest ripple, "Fu Qing, where were you last night?" ”

Shen Changfeng smiled and arched his hand, "Back to the emperor, the minister rested in the small courtyard on Suzaku Street last night, and Miss Xie slept with the minister, so she could testify for the minister." ”

After speaking, Yu Guang saw Rong Zhejiu's hanging hand clenched into a fist.

His smile became more and more innocent, "Your Majesty, did something happen last night?" Prime Minister Rong cried so much, didn't Mrs. Rong go to the west? ”

"You-"

Prime Minister Rong was so angry that he covered his heart, trembling all over, and pointed at Shen Changfeng for a long time speechless.

Rong Zhejiu said coldly: "Why does King Jin pretend to be confused? Last night, you broke into the Rong Mansion and tried to kill me, but the murder attempt failed, so you set fire to the Rong Mansion in a fit of shame. At the feet of the Son of Heaven, you intend to murder the court officials, and the crime is unforgivable! ”

Shen Changfeng raised his eyebrows, "Lord Rong doesn't believe me, doesn't he believe in words either?" Do you have to summon her to the palace to testify for me, so that Lord Rong will believe me? By the way, Ci'er was too tired last night, and I'm afraid I haven't stayed at this hour. ”

Rong Zhejiu's face was even more ugly.

What does it mean to be too tired last night?

What did they do last night, Sister Xie hasn't been able to stay yet?!

He stared at Shen Changfeng, and the other party smiled.

In his opinion, it is clear that the dead pig is not afraid of boiling water.

But it doesn't matter, he still has a backhand.

He solemnly bowed his hand to the emperor, "Your Majesty, last night the assassin broke into the Rong Mansion, and the guard cut off his left arm. A knife mark from top to bottom is about five or six inches long. Please ask the emperor for permission to let King Jin strip and check. ”

The emperor was so shrewd that he had long known these things.

He looked at Shen Changfeng, the other party's expression was indifferent, and he didn't seem afraid to examine the wound.

He put down the cinnabar pen and became a little interested, "What did Fu Qing say?" ”

Shen Changfeng was indifferent, "If the minister's left arm does not have the wound in Lord Rong's mouth, then can you ask the Holy Lord to sentence Lord Rong for framing the court officials?" ”

A bad premonition rose in Rong Zhejiu's heart.

But the emperor was already happy.

Shen Changfeng neatly took off his robe and inner lining.

He stood shirtless in the imperial study.

Broad shoulders and narrow waist, strong waistline.

The bulging muscles were as hard as iron, but there were countless scars on the front and back of the chest.

There are old wounds, and more are new wounds left on the battlefield of the Yue Kingdom.

There aren't a few pieces of skin intact!

As for the left arm, a knife wound spread from the upper arm to the lower arm, eight or nine inches long, more hideous and terrifying than the wound in Rong Zhejiu's mouth.

Rong Zhejiu was stunned.

Shen Changfeng knelt down, his voice heavy and sad:

"Most of these injuries were left during the battle on the battlefield of Vietnam. The minister did not hesitate to suffer and spare his life, he just wanted to protect this family and country. But now Prime Minister Rong's father and son slander Weichen like this, the minister is really heartbroken! ”

The face of the wine is distorted.

I've seen pretentiousness, but I've never seen anyone pretend to this point!

After Shen Changfeng returned home last night, he must have scratched himself with a knife, and the wound was so terrifying!

What a ruthless man!

The emperor was satisfied.

His knuckles tapped on the dragon case, and he said casually: "Rongxiang, what else do you two have to say?" ”

Prime Minister Rong didn't dare to cry.

He swallowed and looked at his son.

Rong Zhejiu immediately made a decision, and knelt beside Shen Changfeng in his robe, "Back to the emperor, it is about the minister who was dazzled last night." The damage caused to His Royal Highness King Jin today is willing to bear it! ”

The emperor was secretive, "I degraded you to Dali Temple as an official, can you be convinced?" ”

Folded wine and kowtowed, "Surrender and obey orally." ”

Leaving the imperial study, Rong Zhejiu and Shen Changfeng stood side by side under the eaves.

The man in white has a cold face.

He was different from other sons, he came from a splendid background, and with the support of his family and Empress Dowager Rong, he served as a cabinet scholar in the court, just waiting to inherit his father's position in the future.

Now he was thrown by the emperor to Dali Temple to deal with the prison case, and he dealt with cows, ghosts, snakes and gods, and there was no help for his connections.

The Rong family was also burned by Shen Changfeng......

He hated this man so much!

He had a cold face, "Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, and they are talking about King Jin." ”

Shen Changfeng was happy, "Thank you for the compliment." ”

Rong Zhejiu said: "Flowers are not red for a hundred days, people are not good for a thousand days, there are many families in Beijing, and there are very few who can stand tall for hundreds of years." My Rong family is one of them. ”

"Oh."

Shen Changfeng took out the thin pipe and lit it slowly.

"Shen Changfeng, the strength of the family is far beyond your imagination. If you offend the Rong family, it won't end well-"

"Hoo ......"

Shen Changfeng spat out a puff of smoke rings at him.

Rong Zhijiu took a few steps back and raised his hand to disperse the smoke, "Shen Changfeng?!" ”

"I don't know if the flowers are red or not, and I don't know what the consequences of offending the Rong family will be. But if you let go of wine, you shouldn't hurt Xie Jinci. ”

The winter sun fell into the man's curved peach blossom eyes, looking affectionate and gentle.

He slowly exhaled a puff of smoke ring, "You said that the Rong family has been standing for hundreds of years, so I prefer it to fall into my hands." You said that the power of the family is far beyond my imagination, then, I prefer to go to the capital and hold the power of the family, and all of them will fall. Power and power are concentrated in the hands of the only person in the world, which is called real power. ”

He laughed and left.

Rong Zhejiu stared at his back, trembling slightly.

He has been reading poetry and strategizing since he was a child, and he has never thought of such shocking remarks!

For hundreds of years, the Darong family has stood against the royal family, maintaining a fragile but strong balance.

Shen Changfeng wants the family to fall?

Shen Changfeng wants power to be concentrated in the hands of the emperor alone?!

He sneered sarcastically, "It's really unashamed......"

Shen Changfeng left the palace and rode his horse to Yingchang Street with his entourage.

The winter wind whistled past his ears, and the man's side face was rare and cold.

He has already outlined a world in his heart.

That's the world he wants to build.

But......

The man's lips suddenly curled gently.

Drunk and lying on the knees of beauty, awake to the power of the world.

Before establishing that world, he wanted to marry his beauty.

Sima Mansion.

Xie Jinci was still sitting on the big chair.

Almond tea is already halfway drunk, and it is very warm and hot.

She raised her eyes and looked, the aunts and servants in the second and third rooms were all beaten by Mei Qing all over the ground looking for teeth, and even Feng Zhenzhen and Feng Xiangxiang were punched and kicked by her, hugging them in the corner and trembling and crying terribly.

The old lady was even more exaggerated, sitting on the ground beating her chest, crying with her voice, scolding Feng Guanlan for not being filial, scolding Feng Qiyan for being a living dead, and scolding Xie Jinci for being a shameless little slut.

The neighbors are all dignitaries.

A group of noble ladies who were not afraid of things came in to see the excitement, they gently helped the old lady up, and helped to accuse, "Miss Xie, on this cold day, you let your grandmother sit on the ground and cry, what if you freeze your body?" ”

"That's it! Miss Xie, you are a junior, you should listen obediently when the elders speak, you can't refute half a word, how dare you order the maid to do something to the elders?! ”

The old lady cried and complained, "You don't know, her uncle owes hundreds of thousands of taels of silver to Qianzhuang, but this dead girl wants to use my own money and coffin book to pay off the debt!" It's going to be damned, this dead girl is going to be damned! ”

When the group of noble ladies heard this, they paid it back, and hurriedly followed the denunciation and thanked Xie Jinci.

Under the eaves, the girl in the green coat and skirt drank the almond tea slowly and methodically, and suddenly laughed.

Her laughter was sarcastic.

The old lady immediately jumped to her feet, "Look, she still has a smile!" What a thousand people point to, what a thousand people point to, she still has a smile! Hey, we Darong advocates filial piety, such an unfilial person, I want to go to the yamen to sue her! ”

Xie Jinci handed the teacup to Libai, got up and dusted off his sleeves:

"I'll go with you to the yamen. It's best to call out the shopkeeper and the bookkeeper of Lufeng Money Village, let's confront each other, who came forward to borrow money. I would also like to ask Jing Zhaoyin, if someone pretends to borrow money with someone else's signature and fingerprint, what should he be charged with? ”

She smiled warmly, but her eyes were full of stubbornness.

The old lady was a little confused.

After a while, she stiffened her neck and said, "You mean, I borrowed the 800,000 taels of silver from Lufeng Qianzhuang in your uncle's name?" Dead girl, you don't want to think about it, your uncle and cousin are both losers, and your grandfather is a medicine jar, and the house is poor, and the debt is clearly pressed with your uncle's handprint, can you still fake?! ”

Xie Jinci stepped down the steps, "My grandmother doesn't know about it, and there is a way in the market to cover other papers on the IOUs without a trace, so as to trick people who don't know to sign and draw them. However, this method is too inferior, and there are usually traces of potion left on the receipt. It just so happens that I still have a debt of 200,000 taels of silver from Lufeng Qianzhuang here, grandmother, let's go to the yamen together. ”

The old lady panicked.

But she loves face and can't expose her panic.

She coughed twice, but she didn't dare to speak.

Xie Jinci stared at her, "Grandmother doesn't dare?" ”

"Joke!" The old lady glared, "If I really did it, what are you doing Xie Jinci so hard to pay back the silver?!" Aren't you a thief?! ”

The ladies around nodded their heads, thinking she had a point.

Xie Jinci smiled again.

This is the way of the world, for example, the old man fell to the ground and was helped up by a well-wisher, but the old man wanted to frame the kind-hearted person to push him down.

Others are even more abusive, saying that you didn't push him down, why did you help him?

Her tone was cold and quiet, "I've wanted to split up for a long time, but my uncle is kind-hearted and has to treat you as his own family." I went to repay the debt because I wanted to fulfill my uncle's reputation, and even more so to fulfill my uncle's kindness. But from now on, I won't pay you a penny or two. ”

The girl in the green coat and skirt stood frankly in the winter sun.

The silver hairpin in her hair reflects the sunlight, but her eyes are brighter than the silver hairpin.

The gentle and gentle temperament is dyed with the meaning of cold, like a plum blossom with snow.

She smiled and raised her hand, "Go to the yamen, old lady, please." ”
