Chapter 53: Emperor Yongqing asks Shen Sitang
As soon as Shen Sitang arrived at the gate of the palace, he met Xiang'an's father-in-law, who was going to the Inspectorate to summon her.
Xiang'an ran profusely, and when he saw her, he hurriedly stepped forward: "Miss Shen, Your Majesty learned that the whole capital was talking about the rumors of the Lord of Poria, Long Yan was furious!" ”
Shen Sitang smiled calmly: "I know." ”
Xiang'an was anxious for her: "How can Miss Shen still be so calm and relaxed, Your Majesty thinks that this matter is related to Miss Shen, and I am afraid that you will enter the palace to ask the teacher for guilt!" ”
Shen Sitang nodded: "Your Majesty is not wrong, I did this." ”
"Huh?"
The people of Xiang'an were stupid, and they didn't react for a while.
Mu Huaichuan broke the silence: "My father-in-law brought this imperial history into the palace together. ”
Xiang'an came back to his senses and looked at Mu Huaichuan in embarrassment: "Lord Right Yushi, you also want to enter the palace?" ”
"Can't you?"
"It's... It's not impossible, Your Majesty has already explained that if the Right Imperial History enters the palace, no one is allowed to stop it, but now that such a big thing has happened, the Right Imperial History will enter the palace without being summoned to face the saint, in case Your Majesty blames it..."
"This imperial history will explain to His Majesty, and he will never affect his father-in-law."
Xiang'an hurriedly said: "Lord Youyu Shi is serious, so let's come with the minions." ”
Shen Sitang's injury has not healed, and Mu Huaichuan has been looking at her worriedly, for fear that she will bump into her.
In the imperial study, Prince Gong was furious, and Emperor Yongqing's face was also extremely ugly, but the governor of the imperial history Fu Yun had the same face as usual and an elegant temperament.
Shen Sitang and Mu Huaichuan entered the imperial study under the leadership of Xiang'an's father-in-law.
"Courtesy Shen Sitang pays a visit to Your Majesty."
"Humble Mu Huaichuan to see Your Majesty."
Emperor Yongqing frowned and raised his hand slightly: "Flatten." After speaking, his face softened slightly, looked at Mu Huaichuan and said: "Huaichuan is also here, the weather has been cold recently, I ordered someone to make you a few clothes, I thought that I would send someone to send you to the house tomorrow, and since you entered the palace, I will bring it back myself." ”
Shen Sitang looked at Mu Huaichuan, how many clothes did Emperor Yongqing ask to make for him? Isn't he the illegitimate son of Emperor Yongqing?
Mu Huaichuan respectfully saluted and thanked him: "Thank you for your humble position." ”
Emperor Yongqing sighed, didn't say anything, his eyes flickered, and when he saw Shen Sitang on the side, his face suddenly looked ugly.
"Shen Sitang, the case of the county lord of Poria, I heard that you have found out the truth?"
It's really fast to change your face, and you have to fight with Junting Banquet, and you are worthy of being a father and son.
Shen Sitang complained in his heart, and said without humility or arrogance: "Back to Your Majesty's words, it has indeed been ascertained." ”
"Tell me about it."
"Yes!" She responded, and then said: "This case also starts from the deer racecourse, that day the courtier went to ride a horse and met the county lord, the county lord came forward to reprimand the courtier for some reason, the meaning between the words is probably that the courtier's status is humble, not qualified to ride a horse in the deer horse farm, the courtier argued with the county lord at that time, saying that His Majesty is benevolent, in this regard, the children of the minister and the royal family are allowed to enjoy the same treatment, Xu is this sentence annoyed the county lord, the county lord wants to punish the courtiers, it just so happens that His Royal Highness the prince and the six princes are here, and the six princes are jealous and hateful, reprimanded the county lord a few words. ”
Shen Sitang was still weak, but every word he said was clear and orderly, and he didn't even forget to praise Emperor Yongqing and the Six Princes, and stepped on the Lord of Poria by the way.
Mu Huaichuan felt that he was too worried, he didn't need to follow Shen Sitang to deal with this situation, look at her sharp teeth.
Emperor Yongqing wanted to provoke a thorn, but Shen Sitang said that he was benevolent, did he want him to refute this and blame her for why she went to the deer horse farm to ride a horse?
He sighed dullly, feeling inexplicably panicked.
Shen Sitang continued: "The county lord was angry at the Zhulu Horse Farm, and after returning to the house, he called the maid Shen Yi in her room to him, and vented all his anger on the innocent maid, resulting in the tragic death of the maid, and afterwards the county lord buried the maid's body in the courtyard in order to conceal the matter. ”
"Nonsense!" Prince Gong glared at her angrily: "Shen Sitang, you dare to talk nonsense in front of Your Majesty, Brother Huang, Poria has definitely not killed anyone!" ”
Shen Sitang expected that Prince Gong would not admit it, so he said loudly: "Why should Prince Gong quibble, the courtier has found out the truth and has her own evidence, Your Majesty, the maid's face is full of vase fragments, and the maid is covered with old scars, she is the maid in the courtyard of the county lord of Poria, who else dares to do this to her except the county lord!" ”
"Nonsense, you shut up this king, shut up!"
Shen Sitang looked at Prince Gong's angry eyes: "Prince Gong, people are watching the sky, the truth will always surface, Prince Gong is unwilling to admit it in front of His Majesty, don't you know that this is the crime of bullying the king!" ”
Prince Gong's face changed suddenly, and he knelt down towards Emperor Yongqing with a plop: "Brother Huang, my brother doesn't believe that Poria will do such a thing, she is still a child!" ”
"Kid? The county lord of Poria will harm people at the age of seven, what is so strange about killing a maid today, the courtiers don't believe it, Prince Gong really doesn't know what the county lord of Poria has done? ”
"Shen Sitang, you!"
Emperor Yongqing had a headache, waved his hand and motioned for Prince Gong to get up, and then stared at Shen Sitang with sharp eyes: "I heard that there are rumors throughout the capital, saying that the Lord of Poria County tortured and killed the maid to cause the disaster, this rumor is no different from what you just said, could it be that you spread it?" ”
Shen Sitang did not answer Emperor Yongqing directly, but corrected: "Your Majesty, this is not a rumor. ”
"I'm asking you, did you send someone to spread rumors?"
"Your Majesty! This is not a rumor! Shen Sitang insisted on correcting Emperor Yongqing again.
Emperor Yongqing was furious: "Presumptuous! ”
Shen Sitang straightened his back, and there was no fear on his face.
"I'll ask you again, did you spread it?"
Emperor Yongqing didn't say a word about rumors this time.
Shen Sitang knew very well why the emperor questioned her again and again, as long as she dared to admit it, the charge of insulting the royal reputation would be placed on her, even if she found out the truth, the emperor could punish her and give her an unforgettable lesson!
Prince Gong snorted cruelly, gloating and waiting for Shen Sitang to reply.
Shen Sitang took a deep breath, her face gradually calmed down, she promised the little Taoist priest that she would definitely seek justice for his sister, the emperor would not want her life, at most beat her half to death, she admitted it!
"Back to Your Majesty's words, courtier..."
"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince asks to see you."
At this time, Xiang'an was ordered to come to pass the word.
Shen Sitang heard the words of His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince, and breathed a sigh of relief for no reason.
Emperor Yongqing frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Xuan! ”
Xiang'an immediately shouted: "The sixth prince of Xuan is here." ”
Jun Tingyan strode in in an ink-colored python robe, walked to Shen Sitang's side and stopped, and glanced at her before bowing to the emperor.
