"Before Qi Zhaoyi entered the palace, the minister met her." Shen Jinzhou spoke.

The emperor's face changed slightly, and anyone who heard that his woman had known another man he trusted for a long time, but he didn't know about it, and his heart would not feel good.

Shen Jinzhou also noticed the emperor's expression, but he continued to say: "The minister was still a junior general in the army at that time, and he was ordered to investigate the enemy who had infiltrated the barracks. Who knows, but he was not discovered by the enemy and was injured, it was Qi Zhaoyi who saved the minister. She had a life-saving grace for the minister, but after the minister recovered from his injury, he returned to the barracks and never saw her again. It wasn't until later that the minister returned to Beijing and met her in the palace, who was already Zhaoyi. ”

Shen Jinzhou paused for a moment before continuing: "The minister was afraid that his acquaintance with Zhaoyi Niangniang would cause trouble for her, so he kept pretending not to know. It's just that Niang Niang Yuchen has a life-saving grace after all, so she secretly paid attention to it. Later, Zhaoyi Niangniang became pregnant, and the minister was also happy for Niangniang. But who would have thought that on the eve of her mother's birth, she actually sent someone to send a letter to the minister. said that someone poisoned her, she knew that her life was short, but she was not worried that the child who had lost her mother would survive in the palace alone. So with the grace of saving her life, she asked me to help her protect the child. So when she gave birth, she replaced the prince with a stillborn birth that had been arranged long ago. The minister took the prince away and raised him in the Hou Mansion from then on. ”

After Shen Jinzhou finished speaking, there was silence in the imperial study again.

The emperor didn't expect Shen Jinzhou and Qi Wanwan to have such a past, but what was even more difficult for him to accept was that his woman was actually killed under his nose. And before she died, she knew that she was poisoned but didn't tell him, and even the child was replaced with a stillbirth, would rather ask Shen Jinzhou for help than believe that he could protect his child?

The emperor, who has always been conceited, has a feeling that he has been poured cold water.

Isn't he just untrustworthy?

Shen Jinzhou didn't speak, he knew that no one could accept such a thing for a while. What's more, the identity of the emperor, his son is the son of the dragon, not who says that his son is his son.

Outside the study, Gonggong De's heart was also turbulent, and he was more impressed by Qi Wanwan than the emperor. The originally innocent and stunning woman was finally dyed with other colors not long after entering the palace. After Qi Wanwan's death, Father-in-law De still had some regrets. I also thought that the other party should have been killed by a woman in the harem, but the emperor didn't investigate again. Of course, he is a little eunuch, but he never expected that Zhaoyi was dead, but the prince she gave birth to is alive and well.

When Father-in-law De thought of Shen Jingting, he also had to praise. This prince, who has lived outside the palace since he was a child, is no worse than the prince in the palace, not only is he handsome and fairy, but his talent is also outstanding. It's just that I don't know if this prince recognizes his ancestors and returns to his ancestors, will this battle for the throne be troublesome again?

After the emperor was silent for a long time, he finally spoke again: "Although what you said seems to be true, I still need to verify it. The emperor already knew it in his heart, but if Shen Jingting was really his son, he would naturally recognize it. But recognizing a prince is not something that can be recognized simply by saying that he can recognize it, he has to give an explanation to the courtiers. Naturally, the evidence is crucial.

"The minister listens to the emperor." Shen Jinzhou also understood the emperor's concerns.

The emperor took a deep look at Shen Jinzhou, and he was still suspicious of Shen Jinzhou's mention of the matter with Qi Wanwan. After all, if it was just an ordinary life-saving grace, Shen Jinzhou couldn't afford to regard Shen Jingting as more important than his own son. He suspected that Qi Wanwan had a relationship with Shen Jinzhou before entering the palace, but Qi Wanwan entered the palace is a place. He can also be sure of the body of the son. In other words, even if Shen Jinzhou and Qi Wanwan have anything, it should be affectionate and polite.

However, even so, the emperor was still a little unhappy in his heart.

He decided, after figuring out Shen Jingting's matter, he would send someone to investigate, and he must find out what was going on.

"Someone!" The Emperor suddenly shouted outward.

"The old slave has seen the emperor." Father-in-law hurriedly pushed the door in.

"Go, let someone bring Shen Jingting!" The emperor instructed Degong to be fair.

"Your Majesty, and Shen Ye's family." Shen Jinzhou hurriedly interjected, and his daughter-in-law, otherwise when the son came out, he was afraid that he would also be worried about his daughter-in-law.

The emperor was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that Shen Jingting had already married. And at the palace banquet, he was also ready to give Shen Jingting a concubine. turned out to be rejected by Shen Jingting!

When the emperor thought that Shen Jingting might be his son, but he only had a wife from such a humble background, his brows furrowed fiercely. Looking up at Shen Jinzhou's gaze, he was a little dissatisfied, and then he felt that Shen Jinzhou was very partial to Shen Jingting, but when he thought that he had married a wife from such a low background for him, he suddenly felt dissatisfied. It's just that the emperor forgot that at the palace banquet that day, he also admired Ye Chuliang very much, and praised it.

The emperor didn't want to agree to release Ye Chuliang too, after all, he heard from the imperial sister that she was still burdened with a lawsuit that killed people. If it was really her problem, and she was Shen Jingting's wife, it would be a drag on him.

However, the emperor just thought about it, and finally nodded and agreed: "Bring the Shen Ye clan with you!" ”

"Yes." Father-in-law immediately saluted and left.

Shen Jingting and Ye Chuliang were still a little stunned when they were suddenly brought into the palace, until they saw Shen Jinzhou in the imperial study, who was embarrassed and bloodstained, and the couple understood that it was their father who came back! It's just that Shen Jinzhou's appearance makes the couple very worried, what's going on? Why is my father so embarrassed?

"Father, what's wrong with you?" Except when he was in the barracks, Shen Jingting saw Shen Jinzhou injured. It hadn't been since they returned to Beijing, and now they were really frightened to suddenly see their father like this.

"Father, did you meet a killer on the road?" Ye Chuliang said nothing, but she saw that Shen Jinzhou had not even changed his clothes and his wounds had not been treated, and he entered the palace like this, she must have been in a hurry for the affairs of the two of them. She was also very moved in her heart, but before Ah Ting also said that Shen Jinzhou was very indifferent to him, in her opinion, Shen Jinzhou was really good to Shen Jingting, but it was just a possible reason, and she had always only done it and didn't say it.

When the emperor saw that Shen Jingting and his wife were around Shen Jinzhou as soon as they came, he felt inexplicably uncomfortable. Especially looking at Shen Jingting, this is most likely his son. But the other party didn't know, so he coughed unhappily: "Cough, cough ......"

The emperor coughed lightly, and Shen Jingting and Ye Chuliang remembered that they had actually lost their temper in front of the emperor.
