308 A terrifying guess

Looking at Jin Jing's mysterious appearance, Shen Cha pursed his lips in disgust, put down the official document in his hand, stood up (body shēn), put on his cloak and walked out.

Growing up together, Shen Cha knows very well the bad taste engraved in Jin Jing's bones, don't look at the surface he is a handsome boy, smiling all day long, but in fact he is a guy with a particularly bad personality. When I usually speak, I like to say half and leave half, and I enjoy it when I see others scratching their ears and cheeks, racking their brains to guess what he really thinks. If you come into a period of extreme excitement, it will be even more terrible, if you are thinking about saying ten words, there is only one sentence that can really be said, and the rest will be guessed by others, or let others beg him to say it.

Shen Cha is too lazy to play this kind of trick with Jin Jing, and I don't know if it is because she has had too little time to sleep recently, and there are too many official documents and battle reports to deal with, and she is groggy and needs to go out to blow the wind and sober up completely.

Jin Jing saw that Shen Cha was out of the big tent, quickly put down the snacks in her hand, grabbed her big tent and followed, and saw that Shen Cha didn't go anywhere, just stood in front of the big tent in a daze, and breathed a sigh of relief.

"What are you doing running out on such a cold day?" Jin Jing put on her big hat and put on the hood for Shen Cha, "I haven't had a good rest for so many days, in case I catch a cold or get sick, it's not a joke." ”

"I've been sitting for too long, and my body is stiff, so I need to move a little." Shen Cha raised his head to look at the blue sky, and sighed softly, "It's too warm in the big tent, my brain is not good, sober and sober." She looked at Jin Jing, "Brother Xiao Jing also moved a little and ate so many things." ”

"If you take a bite of a piece of cake, there will be more of it." Jin Jing was a little worried, "What are you thinking about these days?" ”

"Although we have always known that the contradictions within the Jin country are very deep, and they are still the kind that cannot be reconciled, and it is a matter of time before chaos arises, but we didn't expect it to come so quickly. According to my previous prediction, Wan Yanping will have to find an excuse to fight with us or Liao a few times, temporarily divert the attention of those who oppose her to other places, and seize the time to establish her own power. When those people come to their senses, she is already strong, and then go head-to-head. But I didn't expect ......," she turned her head to look at Jin Jing, "I think that just avenging her mother is not enough for her to make a move on Wanyan Zongcheng so quickly, Wanyan Zongcheng is in a coma at this time, which is actually very unfavorable to her." So, there must be some reason for this that we don't know. ”

"There are unforeseen circumstances in the sky, and people have good and bad luck. Her mother's matter, probably outsiders still know, maybe someone borrowed her hand to clean up Yan Zongcheng, and by the way, Yan Ping was caught off guard. ”

"Killing two birds with one stone?"

"It's a possibility, but it's not necessarily, and we don't have evidence." Jin Jing exhaled, "Maybe the truth of the matter (情qíng) is not as complicated as we think, Wanyan Zongcheng's (body shēn) body is not as good as before, and it will not work all of a sudden, so I gave Wanyan Ping, the rest of the Wanyan family, and those clans who are eyeing each other a chance, and now it depends on whose fist is hard." ”

"Maybe, I hope I'm thinking too much."

"Heh, what you've been thinking about these days, I'm afraid it's not just this, right? What are you wondering about? Say it all. ”

"It's really not my point, I'm not worried about how hard they will fight now, it's just that in this situation, it's more difficult for us to find the truth back then, isn't it?" Shen Cha turned his head and glanced at Jin Jing, "There are not many people who knew (qing) back then, and there are not many people who have survived smoothly until now. After this war, there are even fewer left, a little more serious, maybe not a single one left. ”

"It doesn't really matter to us whether there are those people or not, so we don't have to worry so much about it." Jin Jing patted Shen Cha's arm, "Although in many cases, witnesses are the key, but in this kind of big case of collaborating with the enemy, physical evidence is the one that plays the most important role." The confession of a witness can be changed, but it is much more difficult to change the physical evidence, isn't it? ”

"That makes sense." Shen Cha nodded, "However, we have studied the file many times back then, but we have not found the key physical evidence that really convicted us." The confessions of witnesses are vague, and the physical evidence submitted cannot withstand scrutiny. Even His Majesty couldn't figure out what the former emperor relied on back then to execute Aunt Xue so neatly. ”

"Who says it's not, just because the verdict of that case is vague, if there is nothing, whether it is human evidence or physical evidence, it can't form a complete chain of evidence at all, we will feel strange, and we will spend so many years exploring the truth." Jin Jing stretched her waist and looked left and right to make sure that Shen Haolin and Xue Ruitian were not hiding somewhere to eavesdrop, and then said, "Most of the physical evidence used to convict at the beginning was a note passed by the eldest prince and Aunt Xue when they were young, and it was just a sentence of Dou Chukai's children expressing their inner feelings to each other. This has to be placed in other cases, not even physical evidence. ”

"Yes, the old men of the Hanlin Academy have been studying for many days, and they have to say that they hid the news in the verses, but in the end, they didn't give a clear answer." Shen Cha sneered, "Maybe they studied it and forgot to write it in the dossier." ”

"Xiaocha, don't be so mean, it's not easy for those masters in the Hanlin Academy, they forget to sleep and eat, and their heads are about to be bald, so we have to be considerate of them. They decided to pass on the news, but it was because those notes were written by Xue Bo's mother, and then someone stood up and said that they had witnessed the two of them entangled at the border gate, so they ...... "Jin Jing spread his hands," and it was only ten days from the time the case was sent to the end of the case. ”

"I always feel that the case was closed in a hurry, for fear that others would repeatedly argue, and it would be strange if there was no greasy in it. On top of that, there's another thing that I haven't figured out until now. Shen Cha paused for a while, "It stands to reason that such a big crime as collaborating with the enemy is already a great favor if it is not even the Nine Clans, even if it is a relative, it will also implicate the mother in the palace." But you see that after Aunt Xue's accident, the emperor was the only one who dealt with her. ”

"Yes, the emperor ignored the joint letter of the ministers, and still trusted the Marquis of Wuding, still entrusted him with important tasks, and even ...... The Empress Dowager was not implicated, not only was she not implicated, but her grace was even greater than in the past. ”

"You feel that way, right?"

"The emperor's approach is so contradictory, it has to be thought about." Jin Jing looked at Shen Cha, "Speaking of this today, I'll tell you the truth, several times, I feel that the truth of this case is not what we think, but another possibility." But if that's really the case, it's really terrible, or rather, it's terrifying. ”

"I'm afraid that the assumption that Brother Xiaojing thought of, my brother and I have discussed it many times, as you said, if that is the truth, the emperor's mind is too ...... Is he really not afraid of hurting the hearts of nobles and generals by doing this? ”

"The emperor's mental technique, we can't figure it out to a rough person, but what is certain is that the court needs to be balanced, when the emperor was alive, the nobles and generals were too beautiful, and the ministers couldn't raise their heads." Jin Jing sighed, "If my guess is correct, the first emperor was also worried about this at that time, and as a result, the incident of Aunt Xue (情qíng) happened." If Aunt Xue didn't have a sister who was a maiden in the palace, maybe there would not have been such a thing (情qíng). ”

"It's just...... For the sake of the balance between civil and military, will you sacrifice the (sexual) life and innocence of an innocent woman? Shen Cha let out a long sigh, "Should we be glad that Your Majesty is not such a person?" ”

"Don't say that, this is just our speculation, the most terrifying and impossible guess, we must not go to our hearts, if the truth is not like this, wouldn't we have wronged the emperor? This is a big disrespect, and it is a trouble to let those royal historians know. Let's take our time to find the evidence first, what is the final result, we have done our best, right? ”

"What I said is that if the truth is really what we think in the end, we can only accept our fate, and when the time comes, we will have to comfort Brother Xiaotian."

"The most important thing is that you think about it first." Jin Jing patted Shen Cha, "It's been too long to come out, let's go back!" ”

“…… Good! ”
