Chapter Eighty-Nine: Hasty Matters
"Your Majesty, yesterday the Hai family was inexplicably on fire, and none of the 36 people in the family were spared." Li Wensong told the matter so loudly, which was undoubtedly adding another knife to the wound that Lord Shi had just healed.
"According to the speculation of several adults, I am afraid that the Hai family is afraid of the East Window incident and commits suicide in fear of sin." Li Wensong seemed to be completely unaware of the atmosphere in the hall, and still put on a righteous and awe-inspiring appearance and continued to speak.
Hearing this, Su Jingye and Lord Shi both looked at him a little impatiently, and at the same time, they also received the same gaze from Lord Shangbao.
"Your Majesty, the Hai family has been loyal and good for generations, and the two sons are dull and dull, and they have never been involved in too many political affairs. With the qualifications of these two sons, they may not have thought of such a means. Master Bao's words seemed to be a little puzzled by the Hai family, but he was still very fair.
"How can Master Bao know what if it is a bad idea from a guest in their house?" As if worried that the emperor would listen to Lord Bao's words, Zheng Cheng couldn't sit still at this time.
"Even if someone reminds them behind their backs, they don't have the wisdom to operate, so why make such a decision." Accustomed to seeing these treacherous villains who deceive good and fear evil in the DPRK and China, what Master Bao said is always to the point.
"Master Bao and the Hai family are not close, how can we know if they have been hiding clumsy, just waiting for this opportunity." Li Wensong took his head and glared at Zheng Cheng, but he didn't think that his words were also calm.
"If this is the case, they will be very easy to get His Majesty's appreciation by virtue of their own skills, why should they beat around the bush." Master Bao's unhurriedness made Shi Zhengzhi breathe a sigh of relief.
He didn't want the two nephews of the Hai family to be wronged, and he didn't want Lord Bao to be reprimanded for their affairs.
"What if they are above the top and disdain to please Your Majesty." Gu Ting noticed the relationship between Li Wensong and Zheng Chen, and after being a little close, he was worried that he would lose Li Wensong's protection, so he was anxious to speak, but this made the hall suddenly silent.
Master Bao didn't bother to answer such a stupid question from him, Gu Ting looked at the reactions of the people around him, and then realized how offensive he had said something about Heavenly Grace, so frightened that he immediately fell to his knees, "Your Majesty forgives me, the minister just said something unintentionally." ”
Su Yutian's face was pale, and he said coldly, "Shi Aiqing, is this all the content of your investigation?" ”
"Your Majesty, yes." Lord Shi was reluctant to say so, "However, only for now. ”
"Now that the human and material evidence is complete, and the Hai family was also destroyed in the fire, it can be regarded as paying the price for his actions." Su Yutian folded the letter paper into small pieces and put it in his hand, "Yi Zhen seems that it is better to stop this matter, so as not to hurt the innocent again." ”
"Your Majesty, this matter has not yet been clarified, and this letter is very likely to be forged by someone else, can you allow the minister to close the case later, the minister will definitely be able to find out the truth, but you can't let the elders of the Hai family be humiliated here, chilling the old minister's heart." It's rare for Lord Bao to be so uncalm.
"It is for the sake of the elders of the Hai family that I chose to do a simple thing, otherwise for the sake of these two unworthy descendants, wouldn't I have lost the face of the entire Hai family for several lifetimes." Su Yutian looked coldly at Shi Zhengzhi, who was kneeling and pleading.
Su Yutian still has some appreciation for him, but a person with a character like Shi Zhengzhi must be unpopular in the court. Besides, he is a person next to the former emperor, Su Yutian is always worried about whether he will rely on his status as the emperor's favorite minister to be powerful to himself, and just take advantage of this incident to kill his sharpness.
"It is precisely because of this that Your Majesty should return justice to the Hai family." Shi Zhengzhi could also think of what idea he was fighting, but he couldn't agree with it.
"Well, that's ridiculous, find out what the Hai family is thinking about, you are the one who wants to overturn the case for the Hai family, you should be the public court yamen in this hall, can you do whatever you say?"
Compared with Shi Zhengzheng's disobedience to his will, Su Yutian hated him more for losing his face in front of so many people.
"Your Majesty!"
Worried that Shi Zhengcheng would offend the emperor by saying something earth-shattering, Su Jingye rushed ahead of him and snatched the words over, "Underground, Lord Shi is just too tired to be so unscrupulous, please forgive your majesty." ”
Su Yutian may not really want to cure Shi Zheng's sin, but no matter how entangled he is, I'm afraid he will have to fake it. Now Su Jingye gave Su Yutian a step down, just to go down.
"Well, it doesn't matter anyway." Su Yutian glanced at Su Jingye and cleared his throat, "It's just that there are still many things to rely on in the future, Lord Shi must remember to pay attention to words and deeds." ”
"Weichen, obey the order." Shi Zhengzhi was so shocked that he knelt on the ground, and he didn't even hear the eunuch's shouting of retreat.
Zheng Cheng, Li Wensong, and Gu Ting walked in front of him together, looking down with a smug face, "The one who was deeply framed was obviously the official, but Lord Shi blindly spoke for the sinner, but there was something about the official who offended the adult." ”
"Whether it's innocent or not, Master Zheng knows it." Shi Zhengzhi stood up with a gloomy face, and a pair of eyes as sharp as eagles stared at the three people in front of him, "Your Majesty wants to calm things down, but this official will not give up." Adults, please ask for more blessings. ”
"What do you have to do to be so proud in front of us." Gu Ting said that he almost didn't want to do anything with him, but fortunately he was stopped by Li Wensong in time, "Brother Gu, calm down." He's just the end of a strong crossbow, so why bother with so much effort. ”
Gu Ting caught a glimpse of the top ten people, clenching a fist the size of a sandbag, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and he almost caused a catastrophe.
"What Master Li said is right, why should Lord Gu be angry for this kind of person and hurt his body." Zheng Cheng said, glanced at Lord Shi with a smile, and then pushed Li Wensong and Gu Ting forward.
"Today, Nanshan Restaurant has a wine bureau, and the two of you must be there."
"Lord Zheng is in a good mood today, and he has a wine banquet again?" Gu Ting could raise his voice and let the people behind him hear.
"Exactly, Lord Shi cleared the wrongs for the official, and the official is naturally happy."
Zheng Cheng's deliberate words came into Shi Zhengzhi's ears from afar, and Shi Zhengzhi walked down the aisle expressionlessly, until a person appeared and stopped him.
"Master Shi, do you know why they are so good all of a sudden?" Su Jingye walked in front and noticed that he hadn't come out yet, so he was waiting for him here.
"What is the reason for the embarrassment of a raccoon dog?" Shi Zhengzhi snorted coldly.
"In addition to Lord Li's habit of playing with people's hearts, the help of Mrs. Li is also indispensable." Su Jingye remembered what Jiang Liuyu told him, and his mood was very unhappy, the only good thing was that Jiang Liuyu didn't get into any trouble because of it.
"The Zheng family and the Gu family have one thing in common, that is, the relationship between the two adults and their wives is not good. In the eyes of both of them, women are nothing more than accessories. The two ladies were provoked by Mrs. Li to hate each other, and when they went back, they definitely persuaded their own evaluators to stay away from each other. ”
"And the two adults are unwilling to obey the woman's request, and they want to do the opposite, which is in the hands of Lord Li."
For these reasons, Shi Zhengzhi was even more disdainful when he heard it. Su Jingye noticed the change in his expression, and said with a shallow smile, "And these are just pushing from the side, he asked Master Li to have a solution to their urgent needs, why can't they walk in the same place?" ”
"When the prince said this, he has already guessed the person who blamed the Hai family?" Lord Shi suddenly became interested.
"Master Shi knows it, after all, there is no evidence now, so you can't talk nonsense." Su Jingye shook his head, and Shi Zhengzhi couldn't help but be a little discouraged.
"Actually, this king stopped Lord Shi today because he wanted to remind your lordship." Su Jingye stood and observed the surroundings for a while, and then made sure that no one was eavesdropping, before continuing, "When I was in the court just now, the adults were a little too eager to speak. ”
"Your Majesty's will cannot be changed by the ministers at will. As your Excellency just said, if it weren't for Your Majesty's recitation of the past deeds, you would have been punished for your sin a long time ago. ”
Su Jingye didn't want to deliberately discredit him, but according to Su Yutian's character, there would indeed be such an unwritten rule.
Shi Zhengzhi was silent, and Su Jingye patted him on the shoulder to bring him back to his senses, "There are people like Li Wensong who do everything they can, offending them so openly, doesn't it give them the opportunity to bite back in the future." ”
"When you speak in the future, please consider it carefully."
"I still remember how proud the prince was when he was young and vigorous." Shi Zhengzhi smiled bitterly, with a slight mockery in his tone, "Now that I have married the princess, I don't have the courage to do it again." Mo is not the princess's gentle township, and she has already turned the prince into a finger twister. ”
"Lord Shi is cautious!" mentioning Jiang Liuyu is the most intolerable thing for Su Jingye.
"The reason why this is so is because this king already knows that nothing can be won by brute force and blood." Su Jingye also collected all the expressions on his face.
"This king needs to worry about more things now, so he needs to be more cautious, although he knows that compared to the past, it is indeed a lot more depressed, but this is the only way to get the peace of his family."
"There is only a thousand days to be a thief, and there is no reason to prevent thieves for a thousand days." Shi Zhengzhi walked in front of Su Jingye with his hands behind his back.
"If you want to reunite with your family and not be bullied by outsiders, you need more momentum than others, and remove all the obstacles that stand in the way of progress, which is a good way to do it once and for all."
"The prince still intends to be so timid, and others will only get worse."
"I thought that Master Shi was a little older and should be a lot calmer, but I didn't expect it to be so direct." Su Jingye stepped beside him in a few steps. "This is the court, not the fair and honest rivers and lakes, if you follow what Lord Shi said, I am afraid that tomorrow will be the official position will not be guaranteed."
