Chapter 370: Death
No, no, no, how is that possible? The little girl has been the gentlest of the children in the family since she was a child, and it is impossible for her to do such a shameless thing......"
"This matter has absolutely nothing to do with my Yan'er. She even has to take good care of a little bird on weekdays, how could she have anything to do with such a vicious thing......"
Excuses like these came from all around, and it was the other Jieyu's fathers who were trying their best to explain to their colleagues around them, trying to quickly clear up such suspicions. But even so, their hearts are actually far less calm than they appear on the surface. It can even be said that their biological fathers really don't know whether their daughters have done such a thing.
After all, I heard that since the end of the draft, the emperor has never stepped into the harem for half a step, let alone spending the Spring Festival with which Jieyu he is with. If anyone is lucky enough to be the first person to serve in bed, this point will definitely go up a lot, and it is even possible to directly seal the concubine position. With such tempting conditions in front of them, how many people can really stay in the harem and do nothing all day long?
The ministers who defended their daughters just now were all weak-hearted, but everyone was an old fox who was crawling in the court, how could they not even hide this thought? No matter how flustered they were, they pretended to be more innocent than anyone else on the surface, and they defended there vigorously.
In contrast, Zhang Quanzhong, who already knew in his heart that this was the trouble caused by his precious daughter, seemed quieter than anyone else, and did not make a noise at all. It's just that at this time, his heart is entangled, while worrying about Zhuo Yu's current situation, he secretly prays that his daughter will not have an accident.
The entire court was in a mess because of Situ Yu's words, and the latter was just standing on the steps and watching them at this time, and it seemed that he had no intention of interjecting.
Almost all the ministers gathered around and whispered, and some of the low-ranking people saw this opportunity, and they rushed to the courtiers who had sent their daughters to the palace, trying to say something to get close. Zhang Quanzhong, as one of them, was also an important minister in charge of the household department, so naturally there were people surrounding him at this time.
"Master Zhang, why are you standing here without saying a word? If the lower official remembers correctly, the daughter of your family seems to have also entered the harem, I don't know if you know a thing or two about this matter? ”
The person who came didn't know where he was working, and he probably didn't have much sense of existence in the court on weekdays, but when Zhang Quanzhong came back to his senses because of this, he obviously lowered his eyes, as if he was very angry with this colleague. It wasn't until he saw that the grade of his court clothes was much lower than his own, that he finally took on the posture of a senior, but he didn't think about how to answer this question for a while.
Zhang Quanzhong is very rare in his heart, and it is impossible to tell everyone directly at this time that the person who was drugged is his daughter who has been spoiled by him since childhood. At this time, Situ Ji, who was standing above, suddenly spoke again, his voice was still as warm as jade, but the words that came out made people's hearts feel a little chilly.
"Your Excellency cares so much about Your Majesty's body, I think Your Majesty will be very touched when he finds out. As for the harem person just mentioned, she had already been killed by the cane last night, and the body was still placed in her residence at this time, waiting for Her Majesty to wake up and deal with it separately. ”
As he spoke, he paused, and then said, "Although Your Majesty will leave this early dynasty to me to deal with, if you have important matters or questions, you can still write them on the fold and send them to the imperial study for the time being." ”
He knew that he didn't have that much ability to manage this courtiers with different thoughts, and anyway, Fang Cai's rhetoric was just a delaying tactic, so he naturally brought the topic back to Zhuo Yu at this time.
Originally, when Situ Yu was able to stand on that step on behalf of the emperor's intentions, these civil and military officials were already a little reluctant, if he really wanted to preside over the early dynasty instead of Zhuo Yu, I was afraid that these people would not listen to a word, and they were full of thoughts about how to pull him off from these dazzling places.
Situ Ji could naturally see through these people's minds at a glance. Therefore, Fang Cai's words were obviously to put these old foxes at ease and make them not feel embarrassed.
As soon as the courtiers heard his words, they felt that this method was feasible, and even only glanced at each other, then bowed their hands to Situ Shu, and then said in unison: "This method proposed by the Prime Minister is good, and the ministers should abide by it." ”
Since everyone agreed to this method, Situ Ji didn't want to entangle with them too much, and Xiao Quanzi on the side saw his eyes and hurriedly stood up to announce his retreat. However, at this time, Zhang Quanzhong, who had been entangled, suddenly stood up, and the expression on his face seemed to be a little determined.
Situ Shu raised his eyebrows and looked over, and immediately understood that this person finally couldn't help but admit in public who did this.
Sure enough, Zhang Quanzhong knelt on the ground, not only admitting that he was the goddaughter who had no way, so he did such a shameful thing; And he wanted to see the last face of his daughter's corpse, so he begged Situ Ji to give him death instead of Zhuo Yu.
The court, which had finally quieted down completely, exploded again at this time, and this time even Situ Yu didn't expect that Zhang Quanzhong would be able to do this.
Before this, he and Wei Chi Jin thought that since Zhang Quanzhong dared to bury his eyeliner in Zhuo Yu's bedroom, he must be an old fox who was not easy to deal with. Unexpectedly, although this person is not very moral, he is a character who dares to act.
It's just that the surprise in his heart was only for a moment, and Situ Shu didn't take him seriously according to his intentions, and even the look on his face was only a little colder: "Your Majesty only ordered me to temporarily act as the court this morning, if Lord Zhang wants to plead guilty, let's wait until Your Majesty wakes up." ”
Not to mention that he and this Zhang Quanzhong are just colleagues, even if he really has the power to dispose of the latter, it is Zhuo Yu who is calculated by the father and daughter, and this person should be left to Zhuo Yu to deal with.
Situ Ji thought very clearly in his heart and said it very clearly. However, at this time, Zhang Quanzhong had already been distracted by the shame in his heart, and he thought that it was because he was too used to his daughter that he killed her, so how could he still listen to this?
He was bent on begging for death, and it seemed that only in this way could he feel better when he walked to Huangquan Road in the future.
It's just that Situ Ji still has his own calculations in his heart, and he has to remember to rush back to Cuizhuyuan to discuss with Zhuo Yu and Wei Chi Jin, and he doesn't want to pull too much with this person. Therefore, after signaling Xiao Quanzi to announce his retreat from the court, he turned around and strode away.
