Chapter 326: Wooing

The next morning, an uninvited guest came to the Fa-rectification Division.

It was Shen Rui, the sixth prince, who came.

He wanted to invite Xiao Ti to eat and drink, but Xiao Ti declined.

Shen Rui refused to give up, and threatened that if Xiao Ti didn't agree, he would stay in Jingmingzhai today.

Xiao Ti didn't want to talk to him more, so he said directly.

"If you have anything, just say it, I will help if I can."

Shen Rui smiled: "You think too much, why do I want your help with anything?" I just want to catch up with you, but we're cousins too. ”

Seeing that he refused to speak directly, Xiao Ti didn't bother to pay attention to him anymore and went to take care of himself.

Shen Rui was left to dry.

He tried to find a topic to chat with Xiao Ti, but he didn't get a response.

At this moment, Yu Xuan came with freshly fried fries and fat house happy water.

She didn't expect Shen Rui to be here, and was about to turn around and leave, when she was stopped by Xiao Ti.

"Leave him alone, just come in."

Shen Rui smiled and said, "Don't be nervous, cousin, I heard about you, and I believe you were wronged." ”

Yu Yuanxuan put the fries and the fat house happy water on the table and asked.

"Why is the Sixth Highness here?"

Shen Rui: "I want to invite King Langjun to have a meal, but he just doesn't want to, you can help me persuade him." It's just a meal, and I won't do anything to him, so why should he be so ruthless? ”

Yu Yuan is not stupid, of course he knows the truth that he is either a traitor or a thief.

"His Royal Highness Sixth has a noble status, and there will definitely be many people rushing to eat with you, so why do you have to take King Langjun with you?"

Shen Rui was helpless: "Do you also think I have other plans?" You're all mistaken, I'm not that kind of person! ”

Yu Yuan smiled, picked up a french fry, dipped it in some homemade sweet and sour sauce, and ate it slowly.

There was a knock on the door.

Meng Xizhou stood at the door and said respectfully.

"His Royal Highness the King of Qiyu, the emperor has sent someone over, and if you want to invite you, you can enter the palace."

Xiao Ti put down the half-seen file in his hand and asked, "Did you say what it was for?" ”

"It is said to be for the case of Empress Wen and Concubine Yue."

Xiao Ti had a number in his heart.

He stood up and said to Yu Yuan.

"I'll go back as soon as I go."

Yu Yuan nodded and said yes.

Shen Rui saw that Xiao Ti was leaving, so he was anxious and hurriedly called out to him.

"Wait a minute, I have a few words to tell you individually, can you get the others to avoid it?"

Meng Xizhou took the initiative to retreat.

Yu Huan was about to get up and leave, but was stopped by Xiao Ti.

"You don't have to go."

Shen Rui was a little hesitant: "What I said is very important, and it is best not to be heard by a third party." ”

Xiao Ti said lightly: "She is my wife, she is her own person, there is nothing to avoid." ”

Shen Rui had no choice but to pinch his nose and endure it.

"King Langjun, you shouldn't know yet, before dawn today, the Seventh Prince took a group of civil and military ministers to kneel at the door of the Zhengde Palace, asking his father to thoroughly investigate the case of Concubine Yue and give Empress Wen justice."

Xiao Ti really didn't know about it.

His expression remained unchanged: "What does this have to do with me?" ”

Shen Rui: "With my understanding of my father, there is a good chance that he will agree to the request of the Seventh Prince, and he should summon you to the palace right now, it should be for this matter." ”

Xiao Ti: "So what? ”

Shen Rui first looked at Yu Yuan, who was sitting at the table and drinking the happy water of the fat house, and then looked at Xiao Ti, who had a thin expression, gritted his teeth and said what was in his heart.

"Many people in the palace know the grievances between Empress Wen and Concubine Yue, they are called sisters, but they are actually enemies.

To say that Empress Wen poisoned and murdered Concubine Yue, this is a very likely thing.

Coupled with Wangxue's confession, this case can basically be decided.

The Seventh Prince made this scene today, just because he was the son of Empress Wen.

He couldn't let his mother's crimes be exposed.

He deliberately made things bigger and dragged more people into the water.

In order to achieve the purpose of confusing the public and covering up the crime for Empress Wen.

If I were you, I would close the case directly, and don't give them another chance to fish in troubled waters. ”

Xiao Ti looked at him quietly.

Shen Rui was a little uncomfortable.

"If you have anything to say, just say it, you don't have to look at me like that."

Xiao Ti said lightly: "You say so much, it's nothing more than that you want me to put the crime on Queen Wen, you want Queen Wen to die, and you want the Seventh Prince to be ruined." ”

Shen Rui was said to be unable to get off the stage, his face was blue and red for a while, and he was very embarrassed.

He struggled to speak.

"Empress Wen killed Concubine Yue, and she deserved her life for murder."

Xiao Ti: "Of course you have to pay for killing someone, but what if Queen Wen is wronged?" ”

Shen Rui said without hesitation.

"Impossible!"

Xiao Ti: "As long as the direct evidence of Empress Wen's murder has not been found, this case cannot be concluded, the emperor is still waiting for me in the palace, please forgive me for not staying here for a long time, farewell." ”

With that, he lifted his feet and walked out.

Shen Rui stopped him again.

"As long as you help me this time, when I ascend to a high position in the future, I will definitely not lose your benefits!"

Yu curled up eating French fries.

Now that the emperor is still alive, Shen Rui said such a thing, which is simply a big rebellion.

No wonder he had to kick everyone out.

Shen Rui stared at Xiao Ti, waiting for his reply.

He had also offered an olive branch to Xiao Ti before, but Xiao Ti refused each time.

In fact, it's not just him, other princes also want to win over Xiao Ti.

But no one succeeds.

Shen Rui didn't want to be in such a hurry, he planned to slowly pull Xiao Ti to his side little by little.

Even if he can't pull it in, at least he can't let Xiao Ti stand on the opposite side of him.

He really couldn't help it today.

Seeing that Empress Wen was about to end, he must not give Empress Wen and the Seventh Prince a chance to turn over.

As long as Empress Wen can be convicted, the Seventh Prince, as her son, will not be eligible to compete for the crown prince in the future.

In this way, Shen Rui has one less strong competitor.

He was one step closer to the throne of the Ninety-Five.

Xiao Ti said slowly: "Sixth prince, I will treat what you said today as if I didn't hear it, and please don't come to me again in the future." ”

Shen Rui's expression suddenly became extremely ugly.

"You really don't even give me a little face?"

Xiao Ti: "In the Fa-rectification Division, we only talk about the law, not human feelings. ”

He reached open the door and turned sideways in a gesture of please.

"The Sixth Prince, please go back."

Shen Rui was annoyed and ashamed, and secretly hated Xiao Ti in his heart.

But he understands that now is not the time to tear his face with Xiao Ti.

He could only take a deep breath and force the evil qi in his heart to suppress it.

"What I just said, you can think about it.

If you have any needs, you can also tell me directly, and I will definitely meet you.

Although I am still only a prince, my father is getting older, and his health has become worse and worse in recent years.

You are a smart person and should know to plan ahead for your future. ”
