"Your Majesty, Your Minister......"

"I'm kidding, Peng is nervous." The emperor returned to his casual appearance, looked at Peng Danling and teased, "Peng Xiang came today to ask me to intervene and punish the young lady of Chenwangfu?" ”

Peng Danling didn't know what was wrong with the emperor today, and his personality suddenly became uncertain, which was something he had never done in his years as an official.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead, and sighed that he was not going against King Chen this time.

"Back to the emperor, the minister is here to intercede with the young lady this time!"

"Oh, let's hear it!" The Emperor looked at him with interest.

Peng Danling hugged his fists towards the emperor and said: "Your Majesty, although the young lady of Chenwangfu is only a maid, it is said that the eldest young master of Chenwangfu is very fond of her, and now Chenwang's father and son are killing enemies at the border, if the young lady is severely punished because of a concubine who made a mistake, if this matter is known to the father and son of Chenwang at the border, I am afraid it will not be good for the war!"

Although Peng Danling knew that this was a good opportunity for him to deal with King Chen's father and son, he couldn't gamble on the war!

"The origin of a maid?" The emperor looked at Peng Danling and said, "I remember the last time you came with Wen Sheng, you just wanted to tell me that you suspect that Wen Jin's identity is Cao Geng's daughter Cao Zhijin!"

Peng Danling heard the emperor suddenly mention this matter, and didn't know what his intentions were, so he immediately lowered his head in a panic.

"Panic!"

"You don't need to be afraid, I came to you today just to let you repeat the last excerpt!" The emperor slammed his sword to the ground, and his body was filled with the momentum of looking at the world.

It is said that King Chen is imposing, and now it seems that the most hidden is actually the emperor!

Peng Danling suddenly understood that even if he had been an official for more than ten years, from an official to the prime minister, he had never really seen the emperor clearly!

"Yes!" Peng Danling withdrew from the hall and walked aimlessly in the palace, the emperor asked him to play the excerpt again, because he wanted to use his name to make it difficult for Wen Jin, King Chen's father and son had military exploits at the border, and under the pretext of a sinner, it was not enough to kill Wen Jin, but if Wen Jin was the remnant of Wen Ren's realm, it would be certain death.

When the news of Wen Jin's death reached the border, King Chen's father and son must have taken action, it turned out that it was the emperor who had been trying to deal with King Chen!

He suddenly remembered that the emperor invited Wan Lao to go to the Chenwang Mansion to see Aunt Xu, but he didn't expect the emperor to be involved so early.

……

That night, a large number of palace guards rushed into King Chen's mansion.

"Princess, no, the guards in the palace suddenly rushed into the brocade courtyard and took the young lady away!" Fang Xi hurriedly ran into the house and told Princess Chen what had happened.

"How can this be, Wen Jin is Cao Geng's daughter?" Princess Chen immediately pressed her hand to her heart, "Is there any evidence?" ”

"It's Prime Minister Peng Cheng's excerpt, they have a witness!"

"Who is it?"

"Cao Geng's outcast, Wen Sheng!"

Princess Chen sat down weakly, as if she remembered something, and hurriedly grabbed Fang Xi's hand and asked, "Did the emperor mention the prince and the eldest young master?"

Fang Xi sighed and said, "The emperor seems to want to protect the prince and the eldest young master, saying that the young lady deceived King Chen and approached the eldest young master with ulterior motives!"

Princess Chen breathed a sigh of relief for the time being, and asked Fang Xi, "Where are they going to take Wen Jin?"

Fang Xi hesitated for a moment and replied in a low voice, "Prison!"

"I'll go see her!" Princess Chen was about to get up, but was hurriedly stopped by Fang Xi.

"Princess, have you forgotten what the young lady said to you before, she asked you not to meddle in her affairs again!"

"Wen Jin knew my purpose from the beginning, she should have expected it a long time ago, she was the emperor, and the things of the year were also ......"

When Fang Xi heard her say this, he immediately covered her mouth and said in a nervous voice, "Princess, don't you want to die?"

Princess Chen helped Fang Xi and said, "Fang Xi, I don't see anyone in Fangfei Courtyard, I want to calm down!"

……

In the Prime Minister's Mansion, in the study, Wen Sheng walked in angrily, picked up an official document on the table and smashed it on Peng Danling's face.

"Why didn't you tell me what I was asked to testify?"

"Isn't that what you hoped for?" Peng Danling sorted out the folds and said unhurriedly.

"Although Cao Geng has driven me out of the village, he is kind to me, I have already framed him once before, I can't frame him a second time!" Wen Sheng's eyes flashed, he couldn't let Peng Danling know, he had already guessed that Wen Jin was the matter of the little senior sister.

"There are two in everything, or never do it, don't be so hypocritical!" Peng Danling said ruthlessly.

"Whatever you want, I won't go!" Wen Sheng said decisively, "Not only Cao Geng, Wen Jin and my junior sister are not the same person at all, you want me to make false testimony, I can't do it!"

"Where did you get your conscience?" Peng Danling sneered, "In the eyes of others, you are already a person who has testified against Cao Geng, and you can even testify against your former mentor, not to mention the wife of the enemy, think about your little sister!"

"If my little sister is still alive, she will live a life of outlaw because of my testimony!"

"She won't live, when have you ever seen King Chen?" Peng Danling interrupted him and said, "Wensheng, I don't want to force you, to tell you the truth, that fold is not what I wanted, it was ordered by the emperor to go up, that is to say, it is not me who wants to deal with Wen Jin this time, it is the emperor!"

"Why did the emperor do this, hasn't he always favored King Chen?" Wen Sheng was skeptical of his words.

"How do I know?" Peng Danling said with some frustration, "After being an official for so many years, I thought I was already very powerful, but now I understand that although the official is big, he is still as small as an ant, and the emperor is not what I imagined!"

Wensheng, as courtiers, we must listen to the king's heart, I advise you, don't go against the trend!"

Wen Sheng had never seen such a frustrated Peng Danling, so he believed his words.

……

Jinyuan, Cao Yuan's residence.

Xiao Yin looked at Cao Yuan, who was lying under the window, crossing Erlang's legs to enjoy the moonlight, and didn't take the movement outside seriously at all, and looked at Cao Yuan with hatred and scolded: "A guy who has no righteousness!"

"Do you have righteousness, do you have a way?"

Xiao Yin pursed his mouth, he really had no choice, "Do you have it?" ”

"I'm a little smarter than you, there's one!" Cao Yuan said proudly.

"Really, what's the solution?" Xiao Yin immediately leaned over and asked curiously, "It can't be such a bad idea as robbing the prison, right?"

Cao Yuan glanced at Xiao Yin with disdain, "Such a bad idea, only your stupid brain can come up with it!"

Xiao Yin jumped up, grabbed Cao Yuan's ear and said unconvinced: "You should tell me about your fresh idea!"

"Stinky boy, get down!" Cao Yuan kicked Xiao Yin away, got up and looked at him with his arms crossed, and asked, "Do you know why the emperor sent troops to arrest Wen Jin?" ”

"Isn't it obvious, because the prime minister is complaining!" Xiao Yin clapped his hands and said.
