Chapter 368: I fell in love with Miss Liu
Yin Nuo came in with a wine, and Old Man Shen also rushed in from outside, and the guards put the knife on his neck, and he was indifferent and still rushed forward desperately, Yin Mu was afraid of hurting him, so he quickly raised his hand and asked the guards to let him go.
"Shen Guogong, Shen Zhaobai has already said that this matter was done by him alone, and neither you nor your wife knew about it, so I will not implicate you." Yin Mu looked at Shen Zhaobai and said, "You can go with confidence, I will take good care of your father." ”
Shen Zhaobai leaned over and kowtowed: "Thank the emperor for his grace." ”
Shen Guogong frowned, rushed forward and slapped Shen Zhaobai, pointed at him and scolded: "I told you a long time ago that Huang Lao's way is a lie, you have to listen!" Now that you've got into a big disaster, do you want to leave with a glass of poisoned wine?! ”
Shen Zhaobai looked at him quietly and argued seriously: "Dad, those things are the work of Taoism for thousands of years, you can believe it or not, but it doesn't mean that they are not true." ”
Shen Guogong's heart was unbearable, pointing at Shen Zhaobai for a long time and being speechless, he turned to Yin Mu again, knelt down with a puff, and said: "Your Majesty, it's all the old ministers who haven't taught him well, please ask the emperor to let the old ministers die instead of him!" ”
Shen Zhaobai hurriedly said: "Dad, don't talk nonsense, you have done your best to stop me, when I was young, you found out that I read those books, so you burned all those books, and also beat me and scolded me, but I didn't listen to the advice, and still looked for those books in private." Now the emperor wants to kill me, it's not my father's fault, it's not my fault, it's not the emperor's fault, it's only the fault that science is prevalent today, and other schools have no place to stand, and the times can't tolerate me. ”
Shen Guo said angrily: "You are talking nonsense! Shut up! ”
Shen Zhaobai was still saying, "Dad! You don't have to worry about me, I have cultivated this way for a long time, death is not my final destination, and I will bless the Shen family with prosperity for generations after I become an immortal. ”
Shen Guogong coughed violently twice, and a fishy sweetness surged up, and he vomited blood on the spot.
Yin Nuo hurriedly asked the little eunuch beside him to hand him a handkerchief to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, and after a long time, Shen Guogong stretched out his finger tremblingly and pointed at Shen Zhaobai, and said, "You...... You are my only son, if you are gone, the incense of the Shen family will be cut off in my lifetime! What to rely on to prosper! ”
In fact, he has always known that his son is obsessed with this way, and he also knows that Shen Zhaobai has always been reluctant to get married, not because he was hit by An Ge's incident at all, but because he didn't want to get married at all, he wanted to maintain his childlike body and cultivate into an immortal.
So after he recently agreed to marry Liu Pingle, he was so happy, he thought that his life had finally given up those illusory ideas and was willing to live an ordinary life with fireworks.
Who knows, he actually did these things behind their backs!
But even if his son is no longer sensible, he can't watch him die.
Shen Laoguo pointed at Shen Zhaobai and scolded, knelt down in the direction of Yin Mu, and kowtowed his head heavily: "Your Majesty, the old minister is willing to take one life for another!" ”
Yin Mu was so angry with the father and son that he couldn't cry or laugh, did he sell vegetables at the entrance of the vegetable market when he was a human being? Can you still take a life for a life?
"Whose fault is who's fault, don't be embarrassed!"
"Your Majesty!" Shen Guogong looked at Yin Nuo, who was still holding poisoned wine, and Yin Nuo shivered with fright.
Shen Guogong suddenly stood up and rushed towards him to snatch the poisonous wine from Yin Nuo's hand, Yin Nuo saw that there was nowhere to hide, and in a hurry, he threw the wine glass back, and all the poisonous wine in it spilled out.
The poisonous wine can be prepared again, in case the old man snatches the wine in his hand and drains it in one gulp, then he is finished.
Yin Mu frowned and said, "Guogong, why are you so troubled?" Although your son was confused in the matter of Xuandan, he is still polite, if you die for him, how can he be at ease if he survives? ”
Shen Zhaobai responded on the side and said, "Yes, Dad, the emperor is right, you don't have to worry about me." ”
Until now, Shen Zhaobai's face did not show the slightest fear of death, and he seemed to be bent on believing that he could really become an immortal after death. Yin Mu suddenly felt that even if he spared Shen Zhaobai's life today, Shen Zhaobai would find an opportunity to commit suicide.
Then why did he risk offending the old man and his wife to execute Shen Zhaobai? If he is left alive and asked Shen Zhaobai to find a chance to die by himself in the future, then it has nothing to do with him, wouldn't he be able to dispose of Shen Zhaobai and betray the personal affection of the old man?
Yin Mu's heart was turning, and her father-in-law came in and said, "Your Majesty, Lord Xu and the Duchess of the Kingdom ask to see you." ”
Yin Mu came back to his senses and nodded, "Bring them all in." ”
After a while, the Duchess came in, walked to the front of the palace, knelt on the ground with a puff, wept bitterly, took out a golden ruyi, and said: "Your Majesty, this is given by the courtiers of the first emperor when she was the wife of the emperor, and the courtiers were stabbed by the assassin in order to save the young emperor, and the wound is still faintly painful today." The courtiers didn't want to ask for revenge, but they begged the emperor to spare my son's life, and the courtiers were willing to pay for their lives! ”
Here it is again, one life is worth one life and one life is here again...... This old couple is really.
Yin Mu pondered for a long time, and suddenly said: "I also want to spare Shen Zhaobai's life, to be honest, I am also very heartbroken to learn that he is the mastermind behind the scenes." It's just that Xuandan is really harmful, and those people related to Xuandan in the black market have been executed by me, and I alone spared Shen Zhaobai, how can I explain to the people? ”
At this time, Xu Qiyan, who was standing on the side, suddenly said: "Your Majesty, the law is nothing more than human affection, after all, the Duchess of Shenguo has a life-saving grace to the emperor, if you don't remember this kindness, I'm afraid the outside world will say that the emperor is unjust." The minister has a proposal......"
Xu Qiyan saw Yin Mu nodded, and continued: "Young Grandpa Shen can be exempted from living crimes, and capital crimes cannot be escaped, so he will be punished with grounding, and he will not be allowed to step out of the country mansion for half a step in his life, so that for the outside world, he has disappeared from the world, which is no different from death, and for the Guogong couple, the son has also been preserved, although he has lost his freedom forever, he can also accompany himself at home." If it can, Shen Xiaogong can also leave incense for the Shen family, I don't know if this proposal can the emperor and Shen Guogong be satisfied? ”
Shen Guogong and his wife glanced at each other, as long as his son did not die, he could say anything.
Yin Mu was silent for a moment, but said: "Xu Qing, you are too underestimated Shen Zhaobai, if he wants to continue to use this Xuandan to harm people, he doesn't need to take half a step out of the country's mansion." ”
Shen Guogong immediately kowtowed and said: "If the emperor can spare my son's life, after he returns, I will lock him in the courtyard and not allow him to contact any outsiders, and he will never have the opportunity to pass on anything harmful!" The emperor can also send his own don't take care of him, and even if our old couple dies, his news will not be able to step out of the house! ”
"It's okay, it's just ......" Yin Mu sighed and didn't say the rest of the words.
Xu Qiyan immediately understood, and said, "I heard that there are 3,000 elite soldiers in the Guogong Mansion, if Young Master Shen wants to use these elite soldiers to do something......
When Shen Guogong heard this, he immediately put down the jade around his waist and held it in both hands: "In the past, it was just for the purpose of guarding the family, if the emperor can look at it, the old ministers will give it to the emperor." ”
Yin Nuo immediately went over and brought Peiyu over, Yin Mu's face suddenly disappeared, and said, "Then let's do as you say." ”
Shen Guogong and his wife immediately thanked him, and at this time, Xu Qiyan interjected again: "Lord Guogong, the lower official also asks you for a favor, Miss Liu is innocent, please ask Lord Guogong to give her a way out." ”
Shen Guogong became angry when he heard this, if Liu Zongfang didn't make such a trip today, he would be able to say anything now, but if he said that kind of thing in front of all the guests, if he easily quit the marriage, how could he swallow this breath!
Shen Zhaobai heard that he had escaped death, but he still didn't react much, but when he heard Xu Qiyan pleading with Liu Pingle, he also interjected: "Dad, you agree to divorce Miss Liu, I am dedicated to the Tao, I have no intention of having a personal relationship with my children, and I originally planned to marry Miss Liu and put it there to rest assured you." ”
"What nonsense are you talking about?!" Shen Lao Guogong didn't reply to Xu Qiyan's words, he looked directly at his son and glared at him, "I tell you, no matter whether you go to the Tao in the future or not, I will be your son, you must give birth to a grandson for me and give me the inheritance of the Shen family!" ”
Xu Qiyan looked at Yin Mu again, and only then did Xu Qiyan open his mouth to ask him for three thousand elite soldiers, He couldn't turn a blind eye to Xu Qiyan's small request, so he said to Shen Guogong: "Guogong, the daughter of the Liu family has seen me a few times, she is not a person who can stand loneliness, I will pick an obedient girl for you again." ”
Unexpectedly, the old man bit to death: "But the old minister identified her!" Ask the emperor for mercy! ”
"This ......" Yin Mu was very embarrassed and looked at Xu Qiyan.
Xu Qiyan was silent for a moment, then suddenly turned to Shen Lao Guogong and said: "Lord Guogong, in fact, when Xia Guan first entered Beijing two years ago, he fell in love with Miss Liu, but he missed it for many years by mistake. ”
Yin Mu immediately followed his words and said, "Yes, yes, Guogong, you can let them have lovers and eventually become married." Anyway, your son has no chance of a career in this life, and you just want to marry a wife for him to pass on the lineage, I will find you a good birth, so that your old couple can hold their grandson early, is it feasible? ”
Hearing that Xu Qiyan's affection for Liu Pingle was so unforgettable, the Guogong couple couldn't bear to continue to be wicked, so they were silent for a moment and had to agree.
"That's it. But when the child is born, the two of you will have to take care of it yourself, and you can't cultivate a half-immortal anymore! ”
Guogong and his wife thanked him again and again, but Shen Zhaobai said coldly at this time: "If you break the body of a child, you will not be pious in cultivating immortals." ”
The old man pointed at him angrily and said, "Even if I tie you up and give you medicine, I want you to give birth to a grandson for me!" ”
Shen Zhaobai knew that it didn't make sense, so he had to shut up.
The old couple then left with their son.
After they left, Yin Mu looked at Xu Qiyan with interest: "You don't look like a person who can lie, could it be that you really have a deep love for that Liu girl?" ”
Xu Qiyan hurriedly replied: "The minister can't bear to chill Lord Liu's heart, and he can't bear to see the conflict between the pillars of the court and the country, so he said that." ”
Yin Mu chuckled, he didn't think that what he blurted out was a lie, he knew that Xu Qiyan was a person, and he couldn't be so calm when he lied.
It's just that he doesn't care so much about the private affairs of his courtiers, in other words: "Jinglan hasn't come back yet?" ”
"Before Fang Caichen entered the palace, I heard from Master Chang that General Jing had been ambushed, and he was rushing over to support him at this moment."
Shen Zhaobai is not short of money, the only thing he has done in this matter is to develop pills, so he is the mastermind behind the scenes, and he is not the biggest black hand.
Behind the scenes, there are also those people in the black market in the capital.
The black market has been entrenched in the capital for a long time, just like leeks, getting rid of a batch and rising again. There is no fixed gathering place, and it is all up to the leaders to sell the goods that are not allowed to be sold, which is really difficult to control.
Yin Mu was thinking about it, and Xu Qiyan suddenly said: "Your Majesty, those who use Xuandan, those who sell Xuandan, and many children of the family. The emperor said last time that as long as he was contaminated with Xuandan, he would be killed, but the sons of those big clans ......"
It is absolutely impossible to move, and moving them is tantamount to starting a war with those big families.
