Chapter 383: Turbulence

"Lao Chen has sent people to follow Bai Su's mother and son for a long time, it is His Royal Highness King Heng who brought his mother and son to Kyoto to harbor fugitives, Bai Su is a repeat offender in the imperial court, and King Heng harbors fugitives, these two crimes are all serious crimes, and they should be punished!"

As soon as Murong Zhi's words came out, the court was in an uproar, this King Heng actually harbored the court repeat offenders, what was his intention, it was really shocking.

The emperor's heart was also turbulent, but he still had some doubts in his heart.

"Murong Zhi, you said that King Heng harbored a repeat offender in the imperial court, is there any evidence? If there is no evidence, I will punish you for your sins regardless of the feelings of the monarch and the ministers for many years! ”

Murong Zhi was not in a hurry, because he knew that Chu Hengyu was above the court at this time, and he couldn't take care of Bai Su's mother and son at all.

"The old minister is not lying in vain, at this moment, Bai Su's mother and son are in the Hengwang Mansion, if Your Majesty doesn't believe it, you can personally send someone to arrest you, and you will see it immediately."

Seeing Murong Zhi's assertion like this, the emperor also had doubts in his heart, what happened back then had already caused a rift between the brothers, could it be that today because of the Bai family's affairs, the brothers will be dissatisfied?

Chu Hengyu had been staring at Murong Zhi expressionlessly on the side, and he couldn't help but be a little more wary of this old fox in his heart, it seemed that this old fox was much smarter than he imagined, it seemed that he had already set his sights on Bai Su, and he was afraid that he wanted to take him down in one fell swoop, and no one would stop him from now on.

But he Chu Hengyu will definitely not let him have any chance to hurt Bai Su, his failure to keep General Bai's family has caused him many years of regret, how can he repeat the mistakes of the past now, besides, this Bai Su is his beloved, if he can't even protect his sweetheart, then he is not too wasteful.

At this time, the court had already become a pot of porridge, and Murong Zhi's henchmen stood up to impeach Chu Hengyu one after another, hoping to completely pull him off the horse, so that the entire court would be under their control.

How could Chu Hengyu make them proud, Chu Hengyu sneered and stood up.

Seeing Chu Hengyu standing up, the Manchu Dynasty civil and military forces were immediately silenced, and when they heard what His Royal Highness King Heng could say, Murong Zhi and his party were even more engrossed in staring at Chu Hengyu, for fear of missing any detail of his embarrassment.

The emperor saw Chu Hengyu come out and had mixed feelings in his heart, this is his only brother, he watched him grow up, although he has been a little estranged from himself in the past few years because of Bai Zhan's affairs, but after all, he still has flesh and blood affection in his heart, if what Murong Zhi said is true, how should he face the betrayal of his own brother.

"King Heng, what Prime Minister Murong said is true, is Bai Su really in your mansion?"

The emperor still couldn't help but ask.

"That's right, Bai Su's mother and son are indeed in the courtier's mansion."

As soon as these words came out, it went up to the emperor and down to the hundred officials. They all gasped, this Chu Hengyu actually admitted it directly!

"This matter was not explained to His Majesty at the beginning, it was indeed the fault of the minister's brother, but it was troublesome for Prime Minister Murong Cheng to say it on behalf of the minister."

Hearing this, the hundred officials couldn't help but be a little confused, this King Heng directly admitted that he was hiding a fugitive and was so frank, what the hell was going on.

"In that case, His Royal Highness King Heng is admitting that he is hiding a fugitive and harboring evil intentions?"

Hearing him admit that Murong Zhi took advantage of the victory to pursue and wanted to directly condemn Chu Hengyu, the emperor who was seated was also a little angry when he heard this.

"What is Prime Minister Murong Cheng anxious about, this king only said that Bai Su is in my mansion, when did he say that this king harbors evil intentions?"

Chu Hengyu scolded Murong Zhi back with words, and turned back to the emperor again.

"I wanted to find a suitable time to report to the imperial brother again, but I didn't expect to be troubled by Prime Minister Murong in this way, and the younger brother was a little ashamed."

Listening to Chu Heng's words, the emperor had even more doubts in his heart.

"Oh? What does King Heng mean by this? ”

Chu Hengyu saw that the emperor and the civil and military officials were puzzled, and said loudly.

"Bai Su is indeed in the minister's mansion, but the minister's move is not to harbor the fugitives, but to protect the love in his heart!"

As soon as these words came out, the four of them were shocked, and what shocked them even more was Chu Hengyu's next words.

"Bai Su is the desire of the minister's brother, even if she is a serious offender in the court, she doesn't care!"

"It's a deep love, His Royal Highness King Heng is afraid that he has forgotten, that Bai Su is the daughter of Bai Zhan, how do you know that she approached you for no other purpose."

Murong Zhi said coldly on the side, this Chu Hengyu really dared to say anything in order to keep Bai Su, it was ridiculous, he thought that someone would really believe his words, even if he really liked Bai Su, it was the daughter of a criminal minister, did he think that he could change the overall situation with a word, it was extremely ridiculous, he didn't expect King Heng to be so big and so naïve.

In any case, I won today's game.

"Heh, Prime Minister Murong is positive, please don't be impatient for a while, and listen to what the king says before making a conclusion."

The emperor waved his hand and motioned for Murong Zhi to step back and let Chu Hengyu continue.

"The younger brother had already made a private agreement with Bai Su for life before the accident in the Bai family, and the two children she brought with her were actually the blood of the younger brother."

As soon as these words came out, even the emperor was shocked, and the civil and military officials felt that they had been stimulated too much today and had become numb.

"That's true!"

The Emperor had already stood up excitedly. This younger brother of mine is not young, and he has been indifferent many times by knocking on the side, is there such a reason? But the identity of this Bai Su is really embarrassing, what should I do.

"It's true, the younger brother doesn't dare to deceive, long before General Bai's accident, the younger brother has made a private agreement with Bai Su for life, General Bai had an accident, the younger brother came one step late, and there is no trace of Bai Su, the younger brother is full of remorse, and has been looking for her whereabouts, some time ago, the younger brother went to the northwest to do business, and heard the name of 'masked flower girl', and vaguely felt that something was calling the younger brother."

"At first, Bai Su was reluctant to recognize her brother, and when she got along with her for a long time, she gradually let go of her defense, she told her brother that she was guilty of how to match with her brother, I chased her for a long time before he agreed to his brother, and told him that she was pregnant at the time, so she escaped desperately, came to the border town and gave birth to the child, I wanted to raise the child alone, but I didn't expect to be found by my brother."

"After being persuaded by her brother for a long time, she was finally willing to come back with her brother, although Bai Su was a fugitive from the court, she had no objection."

Chu Heng's words were full of emotion, but what he said made the emperor shake a little.

Murong Zhi saw that the situation was not good, and hurriedly opened his mouth again.

"His Royal Highness King Heng said it well, but after Bai Su is a criminal minister, he should be punished according to the law, how can he easily let it go."

Murong Zhi's words made Chu Hengyu laugh a little.
