Chapter 239: Threat
In the emperor's eyes, the edge gradually appeared, he stared at Lu Qingyi, and suddenly smiled: "It seems that this Shen Xi is not simple."
"Shen Xi just loves to write books, and the ambassador loves to read her books, so he likes her quite a lot, didn't you like Shen Xi's books too, Your Majesty? Although Shen Xi did not make any great contributions to the capital, she also influenced many people to some extent and changed the style of the capital. ”
Lu Qingyi bluntly said that when Shen Xi first participated in the Literary and Cultural Conference, the emperor praised her, and then Shen Xi entered Beijing later, and when she came out one book after another, she also published a collection of poems, which changed a large part of the people in the capital, and what she conveyed was beneficial to the entire Chu State and the emperor.
If the emperor unloads the mill and kills the donkey now, crosses the river and demolishes the bridge, it will inevitably cause a large part of the people's dissatisfaction.
This is what Lu Qingyi wants the emperor to think of.
"Lu Qingyi, are you threatening me?" The emperor's face was gloomy, and he stared at Lu Qingyi in a solemn tone.
"Xiaosheng just told the truth, not a threat." Lu Qingyi was neither humble nor arrogant, he looked at the emperor with an indifferent expression.
"Hmph, it's not a threat, I see that you are threatening, you are relying on me to treat you well, do you dare to commit it now?" The emperor glared at Lu Qingyi, furious, and his face was pale.
"Your Majesty, even though Xiaosheng has selfish intentions towards Shen Xi, the emperor also needs to admit that what Xiaosheng said is the truth." Lu Qingyi still didn't retreat, no matter how angry the emperor was, he also needed to consider the entire Chu State.
When Lu Qingyi said this, the emperor was silent, and after a long time, he said in a low voice: "Then what solution do you have for this matter?"
"Check the real murderer, and Shen Xi is innocent, Dali Temple is implicated in the crime of shielding Shen Xi, if the real murderer is found, this matter will be over, and the main thing is to block the mouth of this leisurely people, as well as those who have no suspicion about Siqing." Lu Qingyi whispered his thoughts.
"Find out the truth? I ask you, how do you check? When the emperor heard that Lu Qingyi was willing to give up until he wanted to find out the truth, he frowned slightly.
"Your Majesty, Xiaosheng believes that no matter who the murderer is, there will be times when clues are revealed." Lu Qingyi's voice was indifferent, and he also answered calmly.
"Then you can go and find out!" The emperor didn't say much, so he asked Lu Qingyi and Chang Yi to investigate this matter, and with the emperor's permission, it would be much easier for them to investigate the case.
"But I want you to be smarter." The emperor's words are like instructions and more like threats, Lu Qingyi and Chang Yi just listened to it, they are not stupid to that point, although they don't know what the emperor's purpose is, but at least now, they are safe.
As soon as Lu Qingyi and Chang Yi came out of the imperial study, they bumped into the eunuch who came in a hurry, saying that the emperor wanted to ask the emperor to go up and administer justice to Helanzhi.
When the emperor heard that Helan was looking for trouble, he was not very impatient and said, "What kind of justice is upheld?" Just let the queen handle it herself, I'm not free now. ”
"But the queen said, you have to go, otherwise I'm worried that Miss Shen and the princess will say that she is unfair."
Originally, Lu Qingyi and Chang Yi didn't want to care, but after hearing Shen Xi's name, they followed.
Shen Xi and Chang Qing had been called to Kunning Palace by the queen, and the imperial doctor was checking Helanzhi's pulse, only to see Helanzhi's face flushed, looking very uncomfortable.
"What's wrong with her? Faced so red? When the emperor saw Helanzhi's appearance, he asked symbolically, he had always disliked Helanzhi, and naturally he would not care about it. Book 6 bar
"Back to the emperor, Miss He has a high fever due to the wind and cold, and now her body is very hot." The Imperial Physician replied.
Helan Zhi saw that the emperor was coming and wanted to get up and salute, but was stopped by the emperor, "Just salute, tell me what's wrong?" ”
Helan looked at Chang Qing and Shen Xi on the side, and coughed a few more times, her voice was fragile, "Your Majesty, it was the courtiers and Miss Shen who had a dispute, and she pushed the courtiers into the lake, and the courtiers contracted the cold." ”
The queen on the side also stepped forward and whispered to the emperor: "Your Majesty, you have to do justice for Lan Zhi, it's still so cold this day, who can stand it if you fall into that cold water lake."
Now is the time when Shen Xi is down, she needs to suppress it, if it is normal, the emperor may not be able to do justice for Helan Zhi.
The emperor turned to look at Shen Xi and Chang Qing, who were standing aside, as if they had nothing to do, with a gloomy face, "What's the matter with you two?" ”
"Your Majesty, the people's daughter didn't push the girl, she accidentally fell into it." Shen Xi said unhurriedly.
"Shen Xi, is this your attitude towards me?" The emperor was furious when he saw Shen Xi's appearance that he didn't care about himself, he was already angry with Lu Qingyi today, and he was going to be angry with Shen Xi again, where would he put the majesty of the emperor.
Shen Xi looked at the emperor with a blue face, and then looked at Lu Qingyi who was on the side giving her a look, and then she knelt down to the emperor, "Shen Xi is not sensible, and I hope the emperor will punish him!" But Shen Xi really didn't do anything to be sorry for Miss He. ”
"Obviously, you pushed my young lady into the lake, but you still don't admit it." The maidservants beside Helan also knelt down and accused Shen Xi to the emperor.
Shen Xi glanced at the servant girl leisurely, and laughed softly, "Girl, you have to be responsible for talking nonsense, I also reminded Miss He that there is a lake behind her, why did it become that I pushed her down?" You're all so bloody! ”
"Are you reminding me? You're clearly laughing at my young lady. The maid glared at Shen Xi again and said loudly.
"If you think it's mocking me, there's no way, but I didn't push Miss He, I just didn't push it, and the princess was also on the scene at the time, but it wasn't something that you could just make up with your words." Shen Xi stared at the servant girl with a rainbow of momentum, looking like he was going to eat her.
"Your Majesty, please also ask you to uphold justice for the people's daughters." Shen Xi kowtowed to the emperor again as he spoke.
The emperor looked at Shen Xi kowtowing to him like this, and always felt that something was wrong, "You get up and speak first." Only then did Shen Xi get up and stand aside.
"Father, the son was indeed at the scene at the time, and Shen Xi and He Lanzhi did have a dispute, but Shen Xi did not push He Lanzhi, it was He Lanzhi who fell into the lake by himself." Chang Qing also stood up to speak for Shen Xi.
"At most, we are a sin of not saving her, but Erchen and Shen Xi can't swim, so naturally they won't jump in to save her." Chang Qing said and glanced at Helan Zhi who was lying on the bed.
Helan Zhi was so angry by Chang Qing's words that she coughed, and it took a long time for her to come to her senses, she pointed at Chang Qing, her voice hoarse, "Princess, you and Shen Xi have a good relationship, but you can't say anything that violates your conscience." ”
"This princess never says anything against her will, but it's you, who look at Shen Xi everywhere and go against her." Changqing was not afraid of He Lanzhi, she glared at He Lanzhi and said loudly.
"Your Majesty, Xiaosheng has a way to prove who they lied to." Lu Qingyi suddenly stepped forward and bent down slightly to say to the emperor.
