Shen Jingcheng knelt on the ground and listened to the content of the holy decree, and did not answer it for a long time.

Resisting the Decree?

That imperial grandson is not a person who can tolerate others to disobey orders, he resists the order so much that it doesn't matter, but if something happens, what will happen to his Ah Jin and the child? But after receiving this holy decree, how can other women exist between him and Ah Jin, this is a thing that responds to people.

"Lord Shen still doesn't accept the order?" The eunuch who read the decree saw that he had not moved for a long time, and said in a shrill voice.

Only then did Shen Jingcheng come back to his senses, took the holy decree expressionlessly, and then respectfully sent the eunuch away.

After the eunuch left, Shen Jingcheng kept wandering around the courtyard a little anxiously, until he wandered around for a quarter of an hour, and then he seemed to be very helpless to return to the house, and during this period, he didn't even look at the woman who stayed.

The woman looked at Shen Jingcheng quietly, until Shen Jingcheng returned to the house, and she also moved the lotus step to follow.

Shen Jingcheng raised his eyelids and looked at the woman, was silent for a long time, and suddenly asked, "Do you want to be free?" If you want freedom, I can give it to you. ”

The woman's body stiffened when she heard this, and then she smiled neither humbly nor arrogantly, and said, "My lord, I am given to you by the emperor, how can you be free?" ”

The implication is that she is a person given by the emperor, but it is not something that Shen Jingcheng can arrange at will, and she will be given freedom? What kind of magistrate can say at will?

Shen Jingcheng's eyes flashed when he heard this, as if he didn't understand the meaning of her words at all, and said, "I didn't say that you weren't given by the emperor, I just asked if you want to be free?" If you want, I can go and fight with the emperor. ”

The woman's face was a little bad when she heard this.

How's that going to work?

When she's stupid? There is an official wife who is inappropriate, and then go back to the palace that can eat people and continue to serve people?

She wasn't born cheap, so why should she live like that.

The woman stabilized her emotions, smiled softly and softly, and played the emotional card with Shen Jingcheng: "My lord may not know that in addition to being a person given by the emperor, I am also a person from Song Guiren." ”

"Song Guiren?" Shen Jingcheng was stunned when he heard this, and raised his eyes suspiciously to look at the woman with a confident face.

"Yes, Song Guiren." The woman seemed to be a little proud and said: "It's the Song family's shop that you have business dealings with, the only sister of the Song shopkeeper, and she is now a noble person in the palace." In addition, three years ago, I also came to your house with Song Guiren, but you were not at home at that time, and the lady at home didn't seem to like us rushing to the door, so she drove us away. ”

The last word 'rush' is to sow discord, and it is also to tell Shen Jingcheng how much Gu Jin doesn't know how much etiquette he has.

"Really?" As soon as he heard her mention the three-year money, Shen Jingcheng's eyes narrowed dangerously, and he asked with a smile: "Three years ago, you came to my house with Song Guiren." ”

"Yes, adults may not know, I am the most powerful person around Song Guiren, and Song Guiren is also kind to let the emperor give me to you, and I hope that my lord will not live up to the kindness of my mother." The woman said meaningfully.

"That's right." Shen Jingcheng looked at the arrogant woman in front of him, smiled very gently, as if he wanted to be sure of something, and asked again, "You really don't want to be free?" ”

"The adults laughed, I just can't help myself, and how can I have the courage to want to be free." The woman pretended not to understand what he meant, and said shyly: "Besides, this is the emperor's holy decree, how dare I resist the decree?" ”

"That's good." Shen Jingcheng didn't continue to talk to her when he heard this, but only waved his hand to her: "You go down first, I'll think about it." ”

After Shen Jingcheng finished speaking, he turned around and picked up the warm teapot, turned his back to the woman and slowly poured himself a cup of tea, his eyes were full of coldness.

The woman also knew that things couldn't be done too quickly, and when she heard this, she bent down to Shen Jingcheng, who had her back to her, and turned around and walked out.

Although she can speak with the confidence given by the emperor, she doesn't dare to offend Shen Jingcheng to death, after all, this is the person she will rely on to live in the future, and she still has to give a little face.

After Shen Jingcheng waited for her to leave, he didn't pick up the water filled with teacups, but just stared at the water surface of the Buddha Cave and turned around, his eyes were clearly extinguished.

is a good Song Qingyue, and it is really good.

And this woman who doesn't know whether she is alive or dead, what is it? Dare to put pressure on him and sow discord here, since she doesn't want to be free so much, then stay here.

It just so happens that he doesn't want to work for this imperial grandson, and if he doesn't take advantage of this opportunity to send it to the door, wouldn't he really live up to the kindness of these people?

So, that night, in the dead of night, a house in the capital suddenly caught fire, the woman's terrible shout, woke up the surrounding neighbors, and so people finally put out the fire, the woman has been burned alive, and the male owner of the house was smashed by the falling beam and broke his legs, and when people dragged him out of the house, the clothes on his body were already on fire, almost burned beyond recognition.

And this family is the courtyard of the prefect of Guide Mansion who returned to Beijing to report on his work, and the male owner who was almost burned beyond recognition is the prefect of Guide Mansion, Shen Jingcheng, and the woman who was burned to death is the concubine room that the emperor just gave to this prefect.

When the doctor who came to him examined the prefect's legs and came to the conclusion that he might not be able to stand up again.

The neighbors around looked at the young man, and saw that his hair was about to burn when he was dragged out, and they couldn't help but sigh.

Such a young prefect is in his prime of life, and his legs are so wasted, it's a pity, it's a pity!

How can you still be an official in the future?

And after Shen Jingcheng woke up, he couldn't believe the fact that he had become a waste, and he was roaring wildly in the house at that time, even ignoring the broken injured leg, and let people carry him to Dali Temple to complain.

"This is the murder of the official of the court, you must find the thief who committed the arson, cut off the body with a thousand knives and dismemberments."

It looked like a madman, and the eyes were so red that they looked like they were going to kill, and the cold hairs on the back of the Dali Siqing stood on end.

But how can the arsonist be so easy to find?

He even began to wonder if there were people in the court who couldn't see him and get the emperor's favor, so he set fire to him, otherwise why did the emperor give a concubine in front, and this person was almost burned to death later?

But this is just speculation, Dali Siqing took people to the burned empty courtyard of the Shen family to take a look, except for the ashes all over the ground, there was no clue at all.

Shen Jingcheng, on the other hand, seemed to be crazy, seeing that these people had not found any evidence, he just yelled and cursed at them, as if they were the ones who broke his leg.

The people who can enter the Dali Temple to serve cannot be simple people, almost everyone has a family background, they sympathize with Shen Jingcheng, but they can't tolerate a local official to insult them so much.

As a result, some officials who were angry immediately went up to the heavens in anger.
