After the eldest princess of Shuyang sent Xiao Wei to kneel at the gate of the palace, she strode out of the door with her head held high, got into the carriage and headed towards the palace.

Today, it is a five-day reincarnation of the court meeting, and today it will also decide how to deal with Xu Han's concealment of identity, confusion of the court, and deception of the king.

These days, there is a miasma of noise in the court about this matter, and although the quarrel has subsided later, it is still chaos.

However, the emperor just didn't say a word on it, and he didn't stop everyone from arguing, but just closed his eyes and recuperated on it.

In fact, there will be such chaos in the court, and the emperor let it go.

Everyone is arguing about whether to convict Xu Han or not, what crime to convict, and how to punish him.

Because the quarrel does not lead to a conviction, it is not good for the three divisions to try the case.

The courtiers were anxious, and they couldn't wait for this matter to pass quickly, after all, quarrels also require energy, especially those in opposition.

Because once the quarrel is too long and it is not settled, people often get tired, so that in the end, it may not be over.

When the eldest princess Shuyang stepped into the palace hall, there was a miasma of smoke inside, and an opposition was saying passionately,

"Your Majesty, the minister thought that Xu Jun, the previous king of Zhenbei, should be allowed to return to Beijing to be tried together, after all, Xu Han's identity has been concealed since he was a child.

Not only Xu Jun, but also the rest of the Xu family should also be imprisoned.

This is a tribal matter. ”

Some time ago, the opposition only wanted to convict Xu Han and never said anything about the rest of the Xu family.

Today, the opposition is unusual, not talking about Xu Han, but talking about the rest of the Xu family.

Xu Han has merit, and the rest of the Xu family, not everyone has merit, so if they can't bite the meat, they bite the fur first.

The fur is gone, how to protect the flesh and skin.

In other words, the opposition, or Xu Gelao's side, knows that so many things have happened in the capital recently, and they have something to do with Xu Danxiu.

That's why he changed direction, not chasing Xu Han's crimes, but turning to deal with the rest of the Xu family.

Decent people are also a little confused about the opposition's sudden change of defense, and it is clear that Xu Han's matter has been changed to the rest of her family.

Of course, they knew that Xu Han's identity as a boy had been around since he was a child, which meant that the Xu family had deceived everyone from the beginning.

They didn't think that the rest of the Xu family was innocent, but the opposition people changed direction so suddenly, so they didn't know how to deal with it.

However, decent people still grasp Xu Han's merits, Xu has merits, and the Xu family is the prince who has been there since the founding of the country to speak.

In this way, a new round of quarrels began.

"What's this noisy? How can they all be the same as butchers who sell meat, with red faces and thick necks. ”

The eldest princess walked in, her voice mocking, sweeping over the courtiers.

Everyone was originally unhappy that a woman came in to disturb the court, and they were originally arguing like black-eyed chickens because of a woman.

Someone just wanted to step forward and ask the emperor to drive this woman out.

didn't think about it, everyone looked up and saw that it was the eldest princess of Shuyang.

The man who wanted to step forward to participate in the performance stiffly pulled his foot back, and almost didn't make himself a cripple.

The eldest princess of Shuyang is dressed in a formal suit, this formal dress is different from other commandment clothes, it is improved, less soft than some women's clothes, but more heroic posture of military generals, making people more comfortable in walking.

This is also the first emperor personally designed and improved for the eldest princess of Shuyang.

This is also the supreme glory of the eldest princess of Shuyang, which fully shows the status of the eldest princess of Shuyang in front of the first emperor.

Seeing this, everyone lowered their eyes and saluted the eldest princess of Shuyang.

Even the emperor on the dragon chair, hearing the voice, opened his eyes, and got up, got down the dragon chair, the steps, and stepped forward to greet the eldest princess Shuyang.

"Eldest sister, why are you here?"

This sister is the eldest child of the first emperor, and she has followed the first emperor to fight against the Northern Barbarians, as well as the pirates in the south, and even the Ryukyu ronin.

It's just that after the current ascendancy, with the death of the horse, the whole person was immersed.

In fact, this is also a manifestation of people who are aware of current affairs.

Now that she is participating in the court meeting at this juncture, the emperor can't tell whether he is happy or unhappy.

He also knew that such a quarrel could not continue.

But there was always a breath in his heart that he couldn't swallow.

This will be the arrival of the eldest princess of Shuyang, maybe it will be a turning point.

The emperor greeted him personally, and the eldest princess of Shuyang did not show anything special, but knelt directly on the ground to greet the emperor.

However, the kneeling of the eldest princess Shuyang really knelt down the anger in the emperor's heart.

Actually, he didn't really want to deal with Xu Han in the first place, after all, Xu Han's credit is indispensable.

He thought he was a Ming Jun, and when he first saw the guilty fold, he was really angry, but later, under the persuasion of Concubine Yu, he slowly lost his anger.

Even after Xu Han returned to Beijing, when he saw him, although he confessed his guilt, he was not convinced, and he didn't feel anything, after all, people who can be raised as a boy since he was a child and have experienced the battlefield should have some temperament.

But what made him really unwilling was the praise for Xu Han from the outside.

He is a broad-minded emperor, and it is precisely because he is an emperor that no matter how broad-minded he is, he carries the suspicion and multi-mindedness of the emperor.

If it is really as rumored outside, Xu Han has reached that point, if he wants to dispose of her, doesn't he want to force those people to rebel?

This made the emperor very unhappy!

Therefore, he dragged on the charge of not convicting Xu Han, that is, to let those courtiers quarrel until he figured it out.

At this time, the eldest princess of Shuyang, who had not been out of the house for many years, appeared, thinking that she was also invincible on the battlefield at the beginning, but finally returned to the inner house.

The emperor's breath suddenly disappeared.

He bent down to support the eldest princess Shuyang, thinking that she was also old, and her knees would hurt if she knelt like this.

Unexpectedly, the eldest princess of Shuyang did not get up here, but knelt down deeply again, and raised her voice,

"Your Majesty forgives your sins!"

When the emperor heard this, he said, "Where does the eldest sister's sin come from?" ”

The eldest princess of Shuyang said, "Today is a big court meeting, although she is a princess, she should not go to the court without being informed, and it is a crime to disturb you." ”

The emperor waved his hand and said, "Why did the eldest sister say this, in the past, when my father was alive, I often let my sister go to the court, not to mention, my father also made a will, and the eldest sister did not need to be reported." ”

The eldest princess of Shuyang smiled, the first emperor did make such a will, but how could her father be the same as her brother when she was in court.

She bowed again, and at the same time there was the Word,

"The minister has been eating fasting and reciting Buddha in the house for many years, and he has spent his life for the horse, and suddenly heard that there is a hero in my dynasty who makes the Northern Barbarians frightened, and his heart is rejoicing for His Majesty."

"In a blink of an eye, I heard that this hero was actually a daughter, and he was guilty of deceiving the king, and the minister knew that His Majesty was a king who strictly abided by the law, but he let the old man move his heart of compassion and begged His Majesty to open the net."

"I came uninvited, I wanted to ask for a favor for the heroine, begging Your Majesty to open the net and spare the heroine."

The voice of the eldest princess of Shuyang is not high or strong, but it is full of coercion, this is the power of countless battles and countless conquests.

Her words made the whole hall quiet, decent people rejoiced, and a Dinghaishen needle came to everyone's camp, and it seemed that the victory was now.

Although the opposition people were stunned, it was not surprising, after all, Xu Han and the prince of Chengen were good friends, and the prince of Chengen was the treasure of the eldest princess of Shuyang, and his heart was flesh.

It is not surprising that she would intercede for Xu Han.

However, if the opposition gives up in this way, they will not be the opposition.

Someone was about to come out and want to refute the eldest princess of Shuyang, but they heard the mighty voice of the eldest princess of Shuyang sound again, this time, the voice was much lighter, and even with some nostalgia, a trace of sadness, because she was talking about the first emperor.

"Your Majesty, the minister is the eldest daughter, you are the youngest son, I don't know if Your Majesty remembers that when Your Majesty was young, he broke an inkstone of the first emperor in the imperial study.

Your Majesty took the initiative to ask the first emperor for guilt, but the first emperor did not punish your majesty, does your majesty know why? “

When the emperor heard the eldest princess Shuyang talk about the first emperor, he was not quite unhappy in his heart, and when he heard her mention the inkstone, he was even more silent.

"Why?"

The eldest princess of Shuyang was silent for a moment and said,

"On that day, the minister happened to enter the palace, and happened to meet the first emperor who found the gap in the inkstone, and the chamberlain on the side was kneeling on the ground and trembling."

"That inkstone is not a precious thing, but it is the beloved thing of the first emperor. The first emperor scolded the inner servant, how could the inner servant dare to expose that it was His Majesty's doing?

But the minister entered the palace because His Majesty broke the inkstone and then asked the minister for help, and the minister went to the rescue. “

"When the first emperor saw that the ministers asked those servants to retreat, he immediately knew that there was a secret in the matter of the inkstone, and I told His Majesty that the inkstone was broken by His Majesty.

But it was not intentional, but because His Majesty wanted to write down what he had learned from his master to the first emperor.

And because the first emperor had warned the princes that everything must bow to each other, it was because His Majesty accidentally broke the inkstone.

His Majesty wanted to write something to the first emperor because he wanted to let the first emperor know that His Majesty worked very hard and lived up to the hard work of the first emperor.

After the first emperor heard about it, he thought more deeply than the minister, and he didn't think that His Majesty wanted to behave and please.

In fact, he just regarded His Majesty as an ordinary son, he was just an ordinary patriarch.

Later, he even said that what His Majesty did was because of a piece of filial piety, and he wanted to make the first emperor happy.

Therefore, when His Majesty took the initiative to admit his mistake with him, His Majesty was not punished. ”

"Just let Your Majesty give him the things you loved at the time. Let you know how you feel when you lose something you love. ”

"According to the meaning of the eldest princess, Xu Han's mistakes, and even the deception of the Xu family, should be pardoned? This is not an inkstone matter, it is related to the system of the country. ”

An official standing below immediately retorted.

Hearing this, the eldest princess of Shuyang raised her head, squinted slightly at the official, and said slowly,

"You are the prince of the country, right, since you said the system, then I will ask you, what is the system?"

"Your so-called system is to throw your old lady on the Zhuangzi outside the city, and treat your wife as a fairy in the sky and worship it at home, right?"

Guozi's priest wine's face changed, and he suddenly showed embarrassment, his wife was young and beautiful, and he gave birth to a son, what could he do if he didn't offer it?

The eldest princess of Shuyang sneered,

"As the prince of the country, you are an example for the students of the world, but if every student is like you, getting ahead, and throwing your mother and son aside like garbage, then what kind of system is this?"

The priest of the country retorted with a flushed face,

"How is this the same, what the court said today is that the king of Zhenbei confuses the court with his daughter, but it is not a matter of pension."

The eldest princess of Shuyang had coldness in her eyes, and looked at the prince of the country mockingly.

"How are they two different things? It's clearly the same, your wife is a woman, your mother is a woman, and even the king of Zhenbei, who you are discussing how to deal with today, is also a woman.

The only difference between them is that your mother conceived you in October and gave birth to you, and a widowed mother pulled you up with hard work.

Let you take the imperial examination and let you get ahead, but what about you, after you became famous, you threw her aside for the sake of your wife.

You are called ungrateful, cross the river and tear down the bridge, what is the difference between you and the beast. ”

The wine of the prince was said by the eldest princess of Shuyang, who was red in the face and red ears, and raised her sleeves to cover the cold sweat that kept pouring down her head.

Another official in his group naturally didn't want Princess Shuyang to continue like this, but took a step forward and said,

"Your Royal Highness Princess, Lord Yun's matter is a family matter, and this will be put in the court, which is not appropriate."

The eldest princess of Shuyang glanced at the official, "You are the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, right, speaking of which, the Ministry of Rites is in charge of various royal celebrations, as well as folk customs and education, it stands to reason that the matter of the country's priest and wine should be hated deeply."

If you don't say it properly, then this palace will talk to you.

Where did you come from? They all came out of my mother's belly, and you wouldn't say that you jumped out of a rock, would you?

In this case, each person was born by his own mother in October.

Of course, I gave birth to you, not only to provide for the elderly, but also to want you to be a useful person to the country and the people.

That's why you are standing in the court today, I think no matter which mother wants to hear what you, the squire, say, it is inappropriate to put it in the court because it is a major matter related to the people's livelihood.

What's more, this palace thinks it's very appropriate. ”

None of the officials in the court did not feel that what Princess Shuyang said deviated from the things discussed at today's court meeting.

But no one dared to come forward to refute her, because if you stand up and refute it, Her Royal Highness the princess must be able to step on everyone's face like Lord Jiuyun, the priest of the country.

They don't want to lose face, so no one wants to stretch their faces up to hit the eldest princess of Shuyang.

Even, some officials are still thinking about whether the recent incident in the capital where the backyard grape trellis fell was the arm of the eldest princess Shuyang.

It can only be said that these people are too dull to even figure out who made the shot.

The eldest princess of Shuyang didn't wait for those people to stretch out her face, and directly snapped, and slapped the faces of the officials present.

I only heard her raise her voice, with questioning,

"Don't think that this palace is messing around, today I am interceding for the little prince of Zhenbei, then I must be ready."

"On the day when the Beiban knocked on the pass, the lieutenant general disappeared, who turned the tide? Are you here able to turn the tide with your lips? ”

"No, it's the little prince of Zhenbei."

"You don't know she's a woman, but she knows! She's just a teenage girl, even if she was raised as a boy since she was a child.

But she cherishes her family and country, and she goes to the frontier, why? In order to protect the people of TECO, I am standing here arguing about what crime to give her.

And all the wives, wives, and children. ”

"She's bleeding on the front, what are you doing?"

"She's fighting the Northern Barbarians, what are you doing?"

"High bed soft pillows, brocade clothes and jade food, push the cup and change the lamp."

"Do you still think this is unseemly and inappropriate?"

"What's the difference between her and your mother, your mother nourishes you with flesh and blood, and Xu Han uses her flesh and blood to defend you against the enemy."

"You won the battle against her like this, but because of her identity, you wantonly crusaded against her, aren't you ungrateful and crossing the river and tearing down the bridge?"

"Is she a hero? Is she a good general? Is her daughter physically in the way of your life? ”

"Has her daughter done you any harm?"

With the question of the eldest princess of Shuyang, everyone lowered their heads one after another, and even the opponents of Xu Ge's old faction did not dare to touch her moldy head at this time.

After all, Xu Han's daughter did not cause any trouble to their lives, nor did it harm them.

On the contrary, it protects everyone's safety.

It also brought a big victory to the Eastern Yuan Dynasty.

The eldest princess Shuyang's eyes swept over the ministers one by one, and snorted coldly, Xiaoxiao, I can't cure you anymore.

She is also a woman, and when she first went to the battlefield, she was also talked about by these annoying officials, and in the end, she directly beat them down.

Let them shut their mouths that can't spit out ivory.

Aren't these people trying to reason? Then everyone will talk and say, women go to the battlefield, women are kings, and people speak with strength, why are these people forced to chatter, forced to chatter non-stop?

It's just that these people are afraid, because women are just tools for giving birth to children and taking care of the back house in the eyes of these people.

Now, this tool in their eyes has suppressed these and overwhelmed these high-ranking men.

They were scared, so they desperately stepped on Xu Han down.

However, she didn't blindly press those ministers, and in an instant, she said,

"Of course, the Xu family did not do anything wrong in this matter, they should not hide their identity, everyone has the heart to protect the family and defend the country, if they said it frankly at the beginning, there would be no today's matter."

The opposition people below saw that she suddenly let go, and immediately got up, and just about to answer, they saw the eldest princess Shuyang turn around and smile at the emperor, and her face became sad.

"Your Majesty, although the sin that Xu Han concealed does exist, but she spilled her blood on the battlefield to seek stability for the people, if you want to taste the warmth and coldness of this world again, it will inevitably seem that our royal family is too cold.

"Thinking about the Huo family at the beginning, it is clear that His Majesty is kind-hearted, but he was still deceived by some people, causing the Huo family to be wronged for many years."

"Fortunately, the emperor was wise, and he rehabilitated the Huo family many years later, so that everyone in the world knew the heroic martyrs of the Huo family."

The prince, who had never spoken on the side, also lifted his robe and knelt beside the eldest princess of Shuyang, and arched his hand,

"Father, the son still remembers that when you were a child, you said to the son that if you know your mistakes, you will change them, and you will be good, over the years, the son has always remembered what his father said, and he has used this to reflect on himself and remind himself from time to time.

When the prince said this, he sighed with emotion and said,

"My father is the Emperor of the Ages, and he is bent on driving the Northern Barbarians to the depths of the grassland, and now he has finally got his wish."

"After that, our Eastern Yuan Dynasty will definitely become more and more powerful, and if you want to be strong, you need a lot of talents."

"My father once told my sons a sentence that my father is the king of a country, and if he wants to recruit talents from all over the world and use his strengths, there is no unusable person in the world, and he can be short-minded, so as to show his father's broad mind."

"Just like what my aunt said just now, Master Yun, although he does not support his old mother and has some flaws in his morality, his talent and learning are second to none, and his father tolerates his shortcomings and uses his strengths."

The emperor sighed slightly, stroked his knees and asked him,

"What if that person doesn't really treat me."

thought that at the beginning, he wanted to marry the princess to Xu Han, but at that time, she actually made up such a lame excuse to deceive herself.

And he faintly sympathized with her, and even sympathized with Xu Jun, and even felt that it was a good thing to give her the prince.

Now that I think about it, how embarrassed I was at that time.

"Father, people's hearts are flesh and blood, if you are really a ruthless and unrighteous person with no heart and liver, how can you go to the battlefield."

"Isn't she afraid of the enemy's thousands of troops?"

"It is precisely because she treats her father sincerely and can't bear to worry about her father for the frontier that she came forward."

The emperor stood up slowly, walked to the bottom of the dragon chair, and paced two steps, thinking of the military order that Xu Han had made in order to get him to agree to her expedition.

In fact, she was determined to die at the beginning.

Because she knows that on the battlefield, the sword has no eyes, and she can't go back once she goes.

Of course, there is a reason for Xu Jun, but if it was only because of this, she would not have made that military order.

The Emperor pondered for a moment, then said, "What if she is guilty?" ”

The eldest princess of Shuyang couldn't help but say on the side,

"Then it depends on whether she made an unintentional mistake or a deliberate mistake."

"If it is an unintentional mistake, Your Majesty is a benevolent and virtuous monarch with a broad mind, didn't you also say to the prince that if you know your mistakes, you will change them, and you will be good?

As long as she can make up for it in the future, that's fine. ”

The emperor nodded, looked at the big pillar of the dragon coiling on the main hall, and did not speak.

The officials below knew that the emperor had loosened up, and his heart that didn't want to cure Xu Han's guilt was a little relieved.

How could the opposition allow such a thing to happen!

Suddenly, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites got a look at him and stepped forward and said,

"The country has national laws, and the family has family rules, whether it is an intentional mistake or an unintentional mistake, she can't be allowed to escape so easily."

"Capital crimes are inevitable, living crimes are inevitable, Your Majesty ......"

When decent people see the opposition saying this, they clearly admit that they have failed, and there are many kinds of punishments, heavy and light.

As long as there is a symbolic punishment, then these people will have nothing to say.

I don't know who said it in the crowd,

"Since everyone says that the little prince of Zhenbei is a hero, it is better to let her come and compete with the generals of Jingzhong, what Jinyiwei, Jin Wuwei, Jin Yuwei, the Royal Forest Army and other generals, and select five people from the major camps to compete with her.

As long as she greeted these five people, then the ministers had nothing to say. ”

The others listened to it, thought about it for a while, and thought that this method seemed to be really good.

So they nodded one after another, and decent people thought that the little prince of Zhenbei could kill the Northern Barbarians without leaving a piece of armor, and he even defeated Xu Dingtai in the ring at the beginning, so he must be a strong martial artist, not afraid.

And the villain smiled coldly, but she was just a woman, and she could have such a feat, and it was not Xu Jun who made it.

Isn't it just to be able to let the emperor think carefully after the incident.

With five good players selected from so many people, they don't believe that they will win.

Only, only the eldest princess of Shuyang, her brows are furrowed, it usually doesn't matter, she believes in Xu Han's kung fu.

Can ...... now Her little grandson can be in Xu Han's belly, and there is no room for loss.

Outside, an attendant came to report,

"Your Majesty, the prince of Cheng'en is kneeling outside the noon gate, saying that he entered Beijing without an edict, please punish Your Majesty."

In the prison, after Xu Han finished reading those books, since he didn't know the day, he started copying Buddhist scriptures.

She would copy a few pages of Buddhist scriptures every day, thinking about the past, and feeling that her days were leisurely.

Xu is strings were too tight before, and suddenly relaxed, Xu Han turned out to be sick, and it was menacing.

But the previous dynasty had already decided to let her compete with the good players in the army.
