Chapter 21 A word is revealed

Shen Enlai knelt down again, this time his head hung directly to the ground, and he knocked his head hard, and then his tone sounded with determination.

"Gu Chusheng despised my Dalu laws and regulations, and tried to rape young girls in Taixue, which is also a crime."

Speaking of this, Shen Enlai kowtowed again. Nan Huaijin looked at Shen Enlai's figure, sin, one? It dawned on him that maybe it wasn't as simple as he thought.

"Gu Chusheng tried to harm His Royal Highness Prince Dalu, despised the imperial power, and did not take the majesty of the Heavenly Family in his heart, his two crimes can be punished!"

'Huh, killing His Royal Highness the Prince? Shen Enlai's words instantly stirred up turbulent waves, and the faces of those who heard this changed their faces. Rao is Gu Chusheng was instantly shocked when he heard Shen Enlai's words, and when he reacted, he blurted out: "What nonsense!" ”

And the emperor's face had changed at this moment, and his sharp eyes swept over Shen Enlai, Gu Chusheng, the crown prince, and finally fell on the body of the third prince, but after a moment, he withdrew his gaze and looked back at Shen Enlai.

"Murdering the royal family is a big crime, and framing this crime is also a big crime, do you have any evidence?" Tianjia's tone is not angry and arrogant.

"The people's girls don't dare to deceive the emperor, the evidence is here." I saw Shen Enlai reach out and take out a piece of silk paper from the placket of his clothes, holding it high with both hands in a lifting shape. Emperor Wen Wen glanced at the eunuch beside him, and the eunuch immediately trotted down to take the silk paper in Shen Enlai's hand and present it to the emperor.

"This is evidence that Gu Chusheng bought the doctor and delayed diagnosis and treatment during the plague two years ago, and his heart can be punished."

Two years ago, with the capital as the center, a plague began to break out around it, menacing, and corpses were everywhere, like a purgatory. The government has set up quarantine zones to prevent the risk of spread. However, this is a torment for those in quarantine. The fear of death surrounds the day, and every day is confined to this radius, even losing freedom, and riots are happening all the time. The government sent troops to suppress it, and the conflict never stopped. It was also at this time that the crown prince Wen Xingjian resolutely decided to step forward and go deep into the quarantine area. His presence brought hope to the quarantine and calmed everyone's emotions. At the same time, it also brought him the danger of becoming infected at any time.

And once Wen Xingjian died unexpectedly in this plague, the throne fell to the head of the third prince Wen Xingren without any suspense, so Gu Chusheng's design was also reasonable.

"Where did you come from this evidence?" Wen Shihuang finished reading the silk paper and asked Shen Enlai.

"Back to the emperor, the folk girl was resentful because she was teased by Gu Chusheng, and she wanted to enter Gu Chusheng's room to destroy it, but she didn't expect to accidentally find this silk paper. This matter is very important, the people don't know what to do, my emperor is strict, and he will be able to check the truth. ”

Wen Shihuang's eyes were firmly fixed on Shen Enlai, and only a three-year-old child would believe her words. Such a private thing, she can find it casually? Should she say that she was too lucky, or that Gu Chusheng was too stupid?

"Emperor Shengming, at first glance, this thing is a deliberate forgery for this woman to take revenge. It has been more than a year since the plague, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is in good health, these words are completely out of nowhere, and I hope that Your Majesty will see it. ”

Gu Lang, the secretary of Dali Temple, shouted loudly and kowtowed. Wen Shi Huang narrowed his eyes at the two people kneeling in front of him. Shen Enlai, Shen family... Wen Shi Huang raised his head and looked at Shen Lie, the squire of the military department not far away. The Shen family, the Three Princes...

Facing the emperor's scrutinizing gaze, Shen Lie only felt that his scalp was numb, he cursed secretly in his heart, and quickly bent down and ran to Shen Enlai's side, kneeling and kowtowing.

"Holy Mingjian, the little girl is really afraid that His Majesty will be deceived. Maybe it's because the little girl is young, and she doesn't know that she is being used, and she is afraid that the saint will look at the young girl's sincere heart, and open the net. ”

Shen Lie's words directly refuted Shen Enlai, he still didn't want to offend the third prince, and at this moment, he also needed to show loyalty. Shen Enlai clenched his fists and tried his best to restrain himself.

Nan Huaiyun saw Shen Enlai's back trembling slightly on the ground, Sister Shen, it should be sad now. The only father stood up but denied her, and didn't ask her opinion at all, that night, Gu Chusheng also hurt Sister Shen.

There was silence, no one spoke again, and everyone was waiting for the emperor's verdict.

"Gao Lang, this matter is entrusted to you to investigate, and you must investigate it clearly." With a wave of his hand, Wen Shi Huang came to a conclusion on the matter.

"Obey." A middle-aged man folded his hands and bent down to the center, saluting and shouting at Wen Shi Huang.

However, Shen Enlai's heart sank, Gao Lang, the executive director of Dali Temple, Gu Lang's person... Wen Shi Huang's intentions were already obvious, and Shen Enlai knew that what the emperor really wanted to protect was the person behind Gu Chusheng, the third prince. And by doing this, he was also telling everyone that this matter had come to an end, and the royal family's favoritism towards Wen Xingren had always been excessive.

Shen Enlai suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness lingering in his heart, this secret was designed by his brother, which was a bargaining chip to balance the three princes.

Shen Enlai knew that this was a chess piece in the hands of the former prince's orphan, and it should not have been used casually by her to deal with Gu Chusheng at this moment. But she is not a brother, and it doesn't make much difference to her whether the former prince is an orphan or the prince Wen Xingjian. She doesn't care about the throne, she only cares about what she wants in her heart, Gu Chusheng shouldn't have escaped so easily.

However, at this moment, the emperor's frivolous words reduced this to uselessness. But he forgot that in this scheme, not only the prince was trapped, but also those people who were killed because of the epidemic, they may be the hope of a family, a father, a mother, and a child. It's a fresh and innocent life. But because of the dirty and filthy battle for the throne of the royal family, his life was ruined in vain. He doesn't deserve this throne.

"Your Majestyβ€”" Shen Enlai's powerlessness and desolation were broken by the voice of the crown prince Wen Xingjian.

"It just so happens that after a year of the epidemic, the families who have suffered losses due to the plague, Wechen asks His Majesty to give appropriate compensation and tax reduction this year, so as to show that my heavenly family is benevolent and loves the people."

In the year of the outbreak of the epidemic, Wen Xingjian had this request, but at that time, because the treasury was tight due to the epidemic, Emperor Wen Wen rejected Wen Xingjian's request. Until today, Wen Xingjian raised it again, for the emperor's guilt against him.

Although the struggle between the crown prince and the third prince is a secret fight, it is already well known. What Shen Enlai said, the ministers present have their own mirrors in their hearts, and they are afraid that nine times out of ten it is true. The emperor naturally knew it, but when he chose Gao Lang, it also meant that he gave up the justice of the crown prince.

Shen En looked at the back of Wen Xingjian, who walked to the front and bent over, there were too many things that could be done by taking advantage of the emperor's guilt, this move should be above the court, but Wen Xingjian did not hesitate to use it on the people. His benevolence is engraved in his bones and penetrates into his blood, which is different from his father and brother.

Shen Enlai suddenly felt that maybe everything was not so bad, and there was still hope for everything.

"The prince's request is reasonable, yes!"

"Your Majesty's generosity is the blessing of my Dalu people."

"Your Majesty,"

"Your Majesty!"

Shen Enlai had just spoken, Wen Xingxing's louder voice overshadowed her voice, if it was an accident, then when Wen Xingxing stepped forward and blocked in front of her, Shen Enlai knew that he was stopping her.

"Your Majesty, the Keju competition has been delayed for a long time."

"Okay, then get ready to go."

Shen Enlai's unspoken words drifted into the wind.
