Chapter 42: Turning the Tables Against the Wind (2)
Chu Xi was forced to use Chen Han.
Everyone else will be jealous of the power of the Shen family, as well as the power of the eldest princess's mansion, but only Chen Han, what Chu Xi tells Chen Han to do, Chen Han will do.
Chen Han is a knife in Chu Xi's hand, wherever he wants to kill, Chen Han will help kill wherever he wants.
Chen Han replied yes, and he immediately led a group of elite soldiers towards the Guogong Mansion.
After instructing this matter, Chu Xi walked in front of the Empress Dowager Sun.
"Emperor, is everything ready?"
"Don't worry, the queen mother, this time I will definitely not fail, this is the best opportunity to solve the Shen family, if you miss this time, I don't know when we will be able to completely defeat the Shen family in the future, if we want to be in power, we must destroy the Shen family first."
Empress Dowager Sun nodded in agreement.
"I've already controlled it on the Queen Mother's side, she won't wake up, you don't have to worry, even if you wake up, the matter is a foregone conclusion, you are also the great-grandson of the Queen Mother, she will only accept her fate."
The mother and son talked about the plan for a while.
Finally, before Chu Xi was about to leave, Empress Dowager Sun asked a question.
"How is that Chen Han to use?"
"This person is insidious and vicious, has no relatives and no reason, he will do whatever I tell him, he is indeed a good knife."
Empress Dowager Sun nodded.
"Since it is easy to use, it must be used to the extreme, you must know that Chen Han has hatred for the Shen family, and there is no doubt about employing people. Chen Han will definitely be a big help for you. ”
"What kind of hatred is Chen Han and the eldest princess?"
Chu Xi has not yet found out about Chen Han's past.
"Chen Han's mother was Huai'anhou's concubine, and later, Huai'anhou's wife Shen Wei passed away, and the eldest princess found out that Chen Han's mother was the murderer, so Chen Han and his mother were kicked out, and later, Chen Han's mother died, Chen Han grew up in the beating and bullying of everyone, he only has hatred in his heart, this kind of person has no feelings, you have to make good use of it!"
After Chu Xi nodded, Empress Dowager Sun remembered something, and she asked tentatively.
"I heard that you have found people from the rivers and lakes to treat Bai Lianrong, how is Bai Lianrong now?"
"Queen Mother, Bai Lianrong's body is fine now."
Chu Xi's expression instantly became a little calm.
"Huang'er, the mourning family is your mother, what woman do you like, how can the mourning family have an opinion. It's just that the last time the Empress Dowager watched, the mourning family didn't want you to do irreparable things impulsively. In the future, how you want to spoil the white lotus paste, the queen mother will not care. ”
Empress Dowager Sun still didn't want to get into trouble with her son because of an inconsequential woman.
"Queen Mother, I know your hard work."
Chu Xi smiled faintly at his mother.
The mother and son said this, and Shen Xianhe finally opened his eyes.
In front of him stood a strange man, and a bell dressed as a palace maid.
The two of them came to Shen Xianhe's face.
"County Lord, the guards have all fainted from my drug, we should leave now, the drug will not last long."
Shen Xianhe nodded.
The bell girl and the strange man untied all the ropes on Shen Xianhe's body.
Shen Xianhe escaped from the palace of the cold palace with the bell and the strange man.
After escaping, Shen Xianhe learned that she was locked up in the most remote corner of the west courtyard of the palace, which was the palace where the previous emperor's uncle and concubine Shen Xianhe had been imprisoned.
It is said that the favorite concubine is the princess of the Beiqiang Kingdom, and she is peerless and beautiful, but the Beiqiang Kingdom has always been a wolf and ambitious, and the princess who was sent to be a maress actually wanted to be a traitor.
After Shen Xianhe's uncle knew about this situation, he directly beat the princess of the Northern Qiang Kingdom in the cold palace.
As for why Shen Xianhe knew about this palace, it was because this palace was full of pear blossoms, and I heard that it was the favorite flower of the princess of the Northern Qiang Kingdom.
Therefore, Shen Xianhe once came to this palace to see the pear blossoms, and the palace maids told her about the past.
"What do you call this strong man?"
After escaping from the palace with the bell and the strange man, Shen Xianhe asked the man who saved her.
"The county lord directly calls me Tian Qing."
This person is Huo Biao's person, Shen Xianhe nodded, and she didn't continue to ask.
Since it is a nail in the palace, it should continue to be obscure.
After Tian Qing finished speaking, he left, and there was only a bell by Shen Xianhe's side.
"Bell girl, I'm bothering you with that spice this time, if it weren't for it, then I would really lock people up completely this time."
"County Lord, I took Mr. Meng and his mother out on the spur of the moment, which caused a lot of trouble to all of you, and now I just want to make up for my mistakes and want to help."
Shen Xianhe smiled and nodded, she felt that this bell girl was very simple, and she was very straightforward in her life, which made Shen Xianhe like this bell girl very much.
"Bell girl, brother, did he say anything about the next arrangement?"
Although Shen Xianhe and Meng Lansheng had already discussed today's affairs, the plan could not catch up with the changes, and the specific time could not be predicted yesterday.
Therefore, Shen Xianhe also wanted to know if Meng Lansheng had any new plans.
"County Lord, Mr. Meng said that as long as you wake up, all plans will go on as usual, and we have already sent a message to Mr. Meng when we came to save you just now, and he should be ready on his side."
Shen Xianhe nodded.
She immediately set up the carriage prepared by Xiaoliu and hurried back to the Gongfu.
When he first arrived at the Guogong Mansion, Shen Xianhe found that Chen Han had taken the people from Dongchang to arrest all the masters of the Shen family.
Including Yu and Yu's two sons and daughters.
All the Shen family members were shackled, and Mrs. Tai's face was pale and her expression was in a hurry.
And Chen Han was preparing to arrest the Shen family's people and go to the prison.
"Daughter, you're finally back, these people from Dongchang are lawless, and they want to arrest us and go to the prison!"
After Shen Junan was caught by the sudden appearance of Dongchang, he kept scolding.
But these people in Dongchang were even more ruthless, they directly kicked Shen Junan in the abdomen, and Shen Junan no longer dared to resist.
originally thought that he was finished this time, but Shen Junan actually saw his daughter come back.
He shouted in surprise instantly.
The other Shen family members also looked at Shen Xianhe in surprise.
Chen Han looked at Shen Xianhe in disbelief, obviously this woman was not locked up?
How did she end up here now!
Still thinking about what was wrong in his heart, Shen Xianhe took out his whip and slapped it directly on Chen Han's body.
"Who gave you the guts to catch the people of the Shen family! Someone, arrest this lawless man! ”
After Shen Xianhe finished saying this, her guards and secret guards all surrounded Chen Han's side.
Chen Han knew very well that he must not fail this time.
The emperor is fully prepared, if he can't arrest the people of the Shen family.
When the time comes, the emperor will never reuse him again!
However, when Chen Han picked up the knife and was about to kill Shen Xianhe, he felt that his brain was dizzy.
Shen Xianhe in front of him was smiling proudly.
"You...... You put poison on top of your whip! ”
Chen Han asked sharply.
Shen Xianhe smiled faintly.
"You're quite quick to react, it's just too late."
After saying this, Chen Han fell directly to the ground.
Shen Xianhe coldly ordered his guards to directly arrest all the people brought by Chen Han.
Now that Chu Xi has torn his face, he forcibly wants to arrest the people of the Shen family.
She doesn't have to save face this time!
The people of the Shen family were stunned and watched as Shen Xianhe tied up the people sent by the emperor.
"Xianhe, is this someone from Dongchang, or is it the emperor's person, let's tie it up, will there be anything after that?"
Mrs. Tai asked worriedly.
"Grandmother, you don't have to worry, the emperor will be anxious now! You hurry up and take charge of the overall situation now, I need to go out now! ”
After Shen Xianhe instructed Mrs. Tai to watch the Yu family closely, she ignored the complicated eyes of the Shen family looking at her.
Shen Xianhe and the bell came to the outside of the palace.
She has to be patient and wait for the show.
It didn't take long for the sound of drums beating outside the palace to suddenly sound.
Since the founding of the Daqing Dynasty, Taizu once made a rule, if the people have unknown grievances, and the officials can't be the masters, the people can personally go to the palace to beat the drum and sound the grievances and sue the emperor.
Once the people decide to beat the drum and complain, the emperor must personally handle the case, and at the same time, the emperor must also complete the case under the attention of the people in the capital and the dignitaries.
However, not everyone can beat the drum and cry out.
Anyone who decides to beat the drums outside the palace will have to pay a price close to his life.
Otherwise, if you throw a pig and beat the drum to complain, there will be no price.
Once this decision is made, the drummer will be punished with two punishments, depending on your determination.
The first punishment was to cross the sea of fire and walk barefoot on top of the coals for ten meters.
Next, it's a matter of rolling over a ten-meter plank filled with knives.
After these two punishments, the person was almost dead.
Then the emperor will begin to hear the case.
This is the method that Huo Biao gave at the beginning, and it is also the plan agreed by the parties.
Shen Xianhe actually felt that this method was too cruel, but that person wanted to take revenge in person, and wanted the emperor and all the people in the capital to see that she was wronged, and she wanted to see her enemy die completely in front of everyone and under the witness of the emperor's relatives and relatives.
So, Shen Xianhe came to the outside of the palace and watched the woman beat the drum.
At this time, Chu Xi had also heard this drum beating, and his face sank.
Naturally, the people of the capital have also heard the sound of drumming and shouting grievances, and a group of people surrounded the outside of the palace, all waiting for the emperor to come out and make decisions.
Chu Xi originally wanted to deal with the affairs of the Shen family today, but who knew that someone who didn't have a long eye would come to beat the drum today to voice his grievances.
This is the rule set by the ancestors, even if he doesn't want to do it, all the ministers will force him to come out and deal with the people's unjust cases.
"Father-in-law Liang, prepare for the carriage to leave the palace!"
