Chapter 45: Turning the Tables Against the Wind (5)
When the man said this, the surrounding onlookers were in an instant uproar, and Chu Xi clenched his fists.
"Are you sure you saw them meet?"
Chu Xi asked coldly.
"Your Majesty, of course the minister saw it with his own eyes, and the Marquis of Shouyang was lying just now."
The person who spoke was Gu Junhe, the son of Huai'an.
Gu Junhe is a well-known honest man in the capital, although he is the only son of Huai'an Hou, and he grew up at home.
But this man was born honest. is very admitted, and has made a few jokes.
When Gu Junhe spoke, everyone believed even more in the fact that the Marquis of Shouyang slandered and spread rumors that the Shen family betrayed the enemy and betrayed the country.
The surrounding onlookers scolded angrily.
Dingguo Gong spilled his blood to protect the territory and defend the territory, Shouyang Hou actually ate, drank and enjoyed himself in the capital, and slandered and spread rumors about Dingguo Gong, which is simply the anger of people and gods!
Chu Xi's face was already extremely cold, Shen Xianhe stood up directly at this time, and then knelt in front of Chu Xi.
"Your Majesty, now that the evidence is conclusive, please return the innocence of our Shen family, my uncle has no news on the battlefield so far, Shouyang Hou dares to slander our Shen family for collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country, what a sinister intention, if our Shen family is really destroyed this time, wait until the surrounding foreign clans come in, and then it will be the people who will suffer, Your Majesty, please be aware of everything!"
Shen Xianhe opened his mouth, and the people behind him knelt down one after another.
"Ask the emperor to severely punish Shouyanghou!"
In front of everyone's eyes, so many people knelt down and asked him to severely punish Shouyang Hou, the human and material evidence was conclusive, and even the Shen family's charges of treason with the enemy were cleared, and Chu Xi had no way to drag this matter down anymore.
If you insist on Shouyanghou, you may be wronged, and then you will completely lose the support of the people.
Chu Xi took a deep breath, he closed his eyes, and after a long silence, he stood up.
"Come on, arrest Shouyang Hou!"
"Your Majesty, the minister was wronged, you obviously promised the minister......"
Before Shouyang Hou said this, the henchmen around the emperor had already directly blocked Shouyang Hou's mouth with a strip of cloth.
Shou Yanghou looked at Chu Xi resentfully, but he couldn't spit out a word.
Then, Chu Xi looked at the people in front of him again and reassured.
"I will immediately send someone to surround the Shouyang Hou Mansion, and then thoroughly investigate the truth and return the Shen family to innocence."
Finally achieving his goal, Shen Xianhe spoke to Chu Xi.
"Your Majesty, you are really discerning, the people have a holy emperor like you, that is the blessing of the Daqing Dynasty, and my uncle must be able to see clearly what you are doing in the sky."
Chu Xi stared at Shen Xianhe deadly, and his whole body almost brushed away.
Seeing that the lively people gradually dispersed, Shen Xianhe hurriedly walked in front of the Zuo clan.
"Madame, do you want it?"
Shen Xianhe didn't know what to call the Zuo family, he might have been able to call the lady of the Houfu of Shouyang before, but the Zuo family definitely didn't like this title now.
"Lord of the county, I'm just a dying man, can I trouble you to send me to the river? I heard that my son drowned there, and before he died, I wanted to talk to him by the river, but I wondered if he would be a ghost if he died in vain. When I got underground, I asked Lord Yama, has my son been reincarnated? If you are not reincarnated, you can only beg Lord Yama so that my son can be reincarnated. ”
Zuo's words made Shen Xianhe particularly sad, a mother can become crazy because of her child's affairs, and she can also become very gentle.
"Okay, I'll send you there."
Shen Xianhe personally helped Zuo up himself.
The river side of the capital is not far from the palace, and after only about a cup of tea, Shen Xianhe took the Zuo family to a willow tree by the river in a carriage.
When he got out of the carriage, Zuo's whole person was unconscious.
"Madame, you are now at the river."
Zuo finally opened his eyes slowly.
In the cold winter, there is also a thin layer of ice on the surface of the river, and the willow trees have long since withered, and the eyes are full of depression.
Zuo smiled reassuringly, she looked at Shen Xianhe, her face was calm, and her tone was so serene.
"When I got married, my mother said that she wanted me to marry a good person, and then I knew that there are so many good people in this world, and it would be good to be able to respect each other...... Therefore, even if the Marquis of Shouyang is a bastard, even if he raises a lot of concubines, I want to manage the back house, raise the child, and watch her marry happily, and this life will be like this......"
"However, the Shouyang Hou Mansion is even more disgusting than I imagined, they are a group of demons, just for a prophecy, they let my child drown in this river, I came out today to testify, the Shouyang Hou Mansion is estimated to be raided and exterminated, I am probably going to go to the eighteenth layer of hell, but I don't care very much, if I reincarnate and live again, maybe it will be more bitter than this, it is better to be tortured in purgatory."
Shen Xianhe didn't know how to speak, she could only listen to Zuo's words in silence.
Zuo Shi was silent after saying this, Shen Xianhe was standing beside her, and she didn't leave.
After a long time, Zuo opened his eyes again.
"County Lord, you tell General Huo that I am grateful to him for this incident."
After saying this, Zuo looked at the river.
"When he was not born, I gave him a nickname, Kang Kang, I hope he is healthy, county lord, the ancients paid attention to entering the earth for peace, but I hope you will cremate my body, and then sprinkle my ashes in this river, my mother's family will definitely not want my corpse, Shouyang Houfu is now difficult to protect itself, it is better to become a pile of loess, go clean......"
After saying this, Zuo closed his eyes completely.
Shen Xianhe suddenly felt very sad, if she couldn't return to the modern world, would she have to go to the last moment of her life in this ancient world.
Shen Xianhe was silent for a long time, and the bell standing next to him spoke.
"County Lord, this lady has passed away."
Shen Xianhe smiled sadly, and she looked at Xiao Liu behind her.
"Just fulfill her according to the wish Zuo just said, Xiaoliu, you deal with it."
After saying this, Shen Xianhe looked at the bell.
"Where are you going now? Bell Girl. ”
"County Lord, today's matter has been completed, and I naturally have to go to Mr. Meng's."
Shen Xianhe asked with concern.
"I'm going back to the Gongfu to deal with things for the time being, brother, you help me thank you, the imperial examination will start in two months, you let my brother study with peace of mind."
Bell nodded, Shen Xianhe remembered that the bell girl was from southern Xinjiang, and she suddenly asked curiously.
"Miss Bell, you came to Daqing Dynasty from southern Xinjiang, did you bring your relatives and friends? What do you plan to do in the future? ”
Speaking of which, Shen Xianhe had never asked the bell girl why she came to the capital.
"County Lord, I'm just separated from my clansmen, I came here to find the holy daughter bloodline of our Southern Xinjiang clan, according to the guidance of Gu worms, I came to the capital, but I have been looking in the capital for a long time, but I haven't found any further news."
Is there still a saint in the southern Xinjiang clan? Shen Xianhe thought so puzzled in her heart, she nodded.
"If there is anything that needs help, you tell me, you helped me today, and you can come to me if you have any difficulties in the future."
Bell smiled, and she suddenly leaned into Shen Xianhe's ear and whispered.
"County Lord, I like Mr. Meng, I like your brother, if you can make him like me, it will be good."
Are the sons and daughters of southern Xinjiang so unrestrained? Shen Xianhe also likes the bell girl, she is lively and straightforward, and she is a little smiling.
"I can't help you with emotional matters, you have already lived with your brother, and I don't think I can help anything."
Bell smiled wryly.
"I don't think Mr. Meng has any thoughts about men and women at all, I've already said it directly, but he only thinks about studying and making achievements, and he doesn't care about my liking at all."
Shen Xianhe thought about Meng Lansheng's future, but he couldn't think of who this person married in the book, and there was no gossip about Meng Lansheng's information.
From the time she met Meng Lansheng, Shen Xianhe felt that this man's mind was on the court, maybe he really didn't care about the relationship between men and women.
That's the problem, a man is not interested in women, and no matter how much he does, it's useless.
Just looking at the expectant face of the bell girl, Shen Xianhe smiled.
"My brother must concentrate on the imperial examination now, and he must not be distracted from talking about the relationship between men and women at this time, maybe when he finishes the exam, he will see that you are good."
The bell girl was happy at this time, she and Shen Xianhe separated.
Shen Xianhe got into the carriage and prepared to return to the Gongfu, but after only a few steps, Shen Xianhe found that his carriage was going in the other direction.
That's not the way back to the government.
