Shen Zhixi sent Gu Yuan, who seemed to be drunk, back to Tangli Courtyard, and went back to the palace to see Shen Heng.

Naturally, she couldn't tell him directly what Gu Yuan and Fang Congzhe were going to do, so she just asked him casually: "Ah Heng, my sister asks you, if there is a person you trust very much, he betrays you, and secretly communicates with the person you hate the most, what will you do?" ”

Shen Zhixi said lightly, which made Shen Heng a little puzzled: "Sister Huang, why do you think of this?" ”

She touched the crown of the little emperor's hair and smiled softly: "It's nothing else, it's just that I've encountered some troubles recently." ”

Shen Heng said indignantly: "Is it that my cheap brother-in-law surnamed Gu made you angry?" I'm going to have someone beat him up tomorrow!" ”

Shen Zhixi felt a little funny, which brother-in-law is still cheap?

Seeing that she tried the opposite effect after some temptation, Shen Zhixi hurriedly went back to make up for it: "It has nothing to do with Ah Yuan, don't make trouble for him." And Ah Heng, tell me about you, as the Son of Heaven, what kind of system do you have to shout and kill all day long? ”

Shen Heng muttered, "What is the system?" Can you eat it as a meal......"

Shen Zhixi thought about it, and what he said was not completely unreasonable.

But his status as an emperor doomed him to live that kind of bohemian life.

The courtiers need the emperor, and they need a model of the emperor who will set an example through the ages.

It is not an emperor like Shen Heng who is too self-conscious.

For a moment, she felt that her younger brother was born in the royal family, which seemed to be a kind of sadness for him.

The wind chimes under the eaves of Tianning Temple jingle dongdong, Tang Xiujin knelt in front of the Buddhist shrine, folded his hands and prayed sincerely.

Moments later, he got the result of this draw.

If you entrust it, it will be lucky, and if you don't do it, it will be a big murder and harm your family.

He gathered his clothes and slowly got up, already having a certain number in his heart.

Destiny does not allow Cui Xian to live purely.

Then there was no need for him to protect a dying man.

Not long after, Xie Zhen's letter also came.

Tang Xiujin took the letterhead and chuckled lightly after a moment.

The teacher didn't want to protect him.

Ning Fengzi frowned, "What did Xie Zhen say?" ”

Tang Xiujin handed him the letter, "Tell Bai Lu that you can do it." ”

The next morning, Lin De Temple.

Even Shen Heng, who was mentioned by Shen Zhixi last night, didn't expect that the person who betrayed him was actually Cui Xianchun.

The old fox seemed to have heard the rumors, and took leave and did not come to the court.

As soon as Fang Congzhe Shen Cui Xianchun's excerpt was taken out, the officials of the Metropolitan Procuratorate were shocked.

Others don't know, they are all people under Cui Xianchun, and it is clear what grievances Cui Xianchun and Fang Congzhe have.

Now that Fang Congzhe is dealing with Cui Xianchun, he must be rushing to kill him.

In the same year when the Chinese side of the DPRK was burned, he saw Fang Congzhe asking for his father's life, and stood up to denounce Cui Xianchun for being an old thief who misled the country and the people, and was the first sinner in this dynasty.

Shen Heng listened to it quite enjoyable at first, but when he thought about it, he still didn't know what Fang Congzhe wrote in his recital, and these people only cared about scolding each other!

He picked up the inkstone and smashed it on the imperial case, and said angrily: "Shut up, bring me the fold!" ”

Jin Xincheng handed over the fold in fear, and Shen Heng snatched it over.

After reading a few pages, he realized that something was wrong.

Why are they all trivial things like corruption and lawlessness?

He still keeps Cui Xianchun to make money, and at this time, the treasury is empty, and it is not time to liquidate him.

These scholars are in a hurry!

As soon as he wanted to have a seizure, he saw the charge of "forbiddenness".

Three years ago, the naval battle of Taizhou, the reason why Zhao was defeated miserably was that he did not move and wanted to take advantage of the fisherman!

If Fang Yixiao pacified the southeast, he would have helped at most, and he would not be able to get anything.

So he chose to sit back and watch the Dingyuan ship sink, Taizhou City falls, and Fang Yixiao is martyred!

Moreover, he also privately signed a treaty with the Japanese and leased some coastal ports to the Dongying devils!

Collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country is really daring!

Shen Heng was so angry that he smashed all the inkstones he had just taken: "Lu Jing, the brocade-clothed guard, will be caught by me, don't let him run away!" ”

Shen Zhixi, who was standing on the side, frowned, the Jokhang country is all yours, can he run to Dongying?

Cui Xianchun really didn't want to run to Dongying, but he was not willing to lose like this.

Before receiving the news that Jinyiwei was ordered to raid his home, he sent a letter to Shen Jun, the prince of Chu, who was still on the way to the funeral.

The letter ends with these words.

After I leave, the world will be in chaos, you should be careful.

Of course, Jin Yiwei didn't find out about Cui Xianchun's letter, Lu Jing led someone to count the money in the Cui family's treasury, and put Cui Xianchun and his family into custody.

Lu Jing lowered his eyes and looked at this criminal minister who was still a second-grade member yesterday, and after a long time, he leaned down and said lightly to Cui Xianchun: "Dejing, after all, you have been an official in the court for many years, and you have to look at the face of the Buddha if you don't look at the face of the monk, your father is kind to me, and I can promise you a request." ”

Lu Ran, who was on the side, hurriedly said: "Uncle, no!" Now that you have agreed to his request, you will surely be subject to others in the future! ”

Lu Jing glared at him: "Shut up." When the elders speak, what do the children interject? ”

Cui Xianchun ignored Lu Ran, but said to Lu Jing directly: "I want to see the eldest princess, I want to know who killed me." ”

Lu Ran sneered lightly: "Crazy." ”

Lu Jing kicked him: "You talk a lot, hurry up and find someone." ”

Cui Xianchun's matter came to an end for the time being, and the court meeting was lively again, with impeachment and scolding and fighting.

Shen Heng really annoyed them in the end, so he simply didn't do anything and let Shen Zhixi preside over the court meeting.

The first issue is naturally the news of the death of the king of Chu.

The hereditary title of Chu domain was replaced, and it was a sure thing for Shen Jun to return to Jingzhou to inherit the throne, and the imperial court also gave a complete set of funeral rites, and even the tomb of the king of Chu was completed a year ago.

Then he drew up a nickname for the king of Chu and sent it to Chu before Shen Jun.

Shen Zhixi didn't expect that the people in the Ministry of Rites could even quarrel with the Metropolitan Procuratorate about this.

It's not that enemies don't get together.

First, Sun You, the attendant of the Ministry of Rites, asked Shen Heng whether the Ministry of Rites referred to the previously deceased King of Qin when drawing up the name for the King of Chu, or was it self-contained?

How could Shen Heng understand this, before he could speak, the group of officials in the Metropolitan Procuratorate rushed up, saying that Sun You was knowingly asking, and he was not even familiar with the affairs of his own yamen, so what could he do for the country and the people?

Sun You asked rhetorically: "You imperial historians are in charge of supervision, dare to ask which of you can memorize the law backwards?" In other words, if I put it another way, which of you knows how much the price of rice in the capital has risen? ”

Sun You didn't say anything, but his rebuttal ignited the anger of the official in an instant, because at this time, everyone in the court could hear Sun You's words.

The four bodies are not diligent, and the grains are not divided.

For a time, there was a miasma of smoke above the court.

Shen Heng was probably impatient, so Jin Xin announced his retirement from the court, and the matter would be discussed tomorrow.

Shen Zhixi and Gu Yuan, who had been watching the play, were the last to walk out of the Lin De Palace, and as soon as the two were about to leave, Lu Ran hurried over.

Gu Yuan frowned, "What's wrong?" ”

Lu Ran sighed: "It's such a thing, my uncle was ordered to raid Cui Xianchun's house, but Cui Xianchun said that he wanted to see His Royal Highness, I usually have a good relationship with you, so my uncle sent me here." ”

Gu Yuan, who had been talking about gags all day, realized that something had happened, and he was just about to get up and go to Cui's Mansion with Shen Zhixi, when Jin Xin hurried over: "Lord Gu, there is an emergency military report!" ”

——

Cui's Mansion, Lu Jing, the governor of the Jinyi Guard, who was ordered to copy the house, stood with his hands in his hands and did not say a word.

Seeing Shen Zhixi coming, Lu Jing took her in.

Cui Xianchun was appointed as the Marquis of Pingnan, and now this Hou Mansion has been emptied, leaving only two Taishi chairs and a desk in the main hall.

Lu Jing can be said to have given him enough face.

Staring at the scene in front of her, Shen Zhixi remembered a poem that was not suitable for the occasion for no reason.

Relying on the words of the king to seal the marquis, one will succeed and ten thousand bones will wither.

In the past, Cui Xianchun paved the way for himself with the corpses of 10,000 people, and now he can't do this improper Pingnanhou.

Shen Zhixi wanted to question him in front of him, when he trampled on the white bones, did he think about today?

Entering the main hall that had already been emptied, Cui Xianchun rarely squeezed out a wry smile from his face: "The criminal Cui Xianchun, ask His Highness how he is well." ”

Shen Zhixi didn't want to deal with this hypocrite in her heart, so she just answered lightly and sat on the Taishi chair next to her.

The two of them were separated by a desk, very close, but also seemed very far away.

Shen Zhixi remembered that his father said that Cui Xianchun was also full of ambition when he was young, and he was worthy of his name.

But what little bit of wind and bones he had left had long been exhausted by this terrible world.

Now he's just a shell.

Shen Zhixi didn't think he deserved sympathy, poor people must have something to hate.

If a heinous person like him deserves sympathy, then what is the use of the laws of the court?

The sword of the court is out of its sheath, and it is good to see blood.

But the downfall of one person may be his own problem, what about ten, a hundred or even a thousand people who begin to lose themselves in the great dye vat of fame and fortune?

Isn't that the way of the world sad?

Cui Xianchun laughed to himself alone: "The birds are all gone, and the good bow is hidden." The cunning rabbit dies, and the lackeys cook. It's not His Highness who kills me, it's this world that kills me. ”

Shen Zhixi shook her head: "You are wrong, the world is sad, and in the end, it is still you who killed the previous Cui Xianchun with your own hands." You can choose not to take this path, but for your own selfishness, you did not hesitate to kill so many soldiers, causing the blood of 30,000 loyal souls to be spilled on the battlefield, but you say that it is the fault of the world? The 30,000 soldiers died in Taizhou and the Dingyuan ship sank to the bottom of the sea, whose fault is it? ”

Cui Xianchun smiled coldly, "Yes, I killed it, it's too late." Do you want to know, Your Highness, I still have other murder cases on my back? For example, how did Her Royal Highness's biological mother, Empress Hyoxian, die? ”

Shen Zhixi said sharply: "Cui Xianchun, you shut up in this palace!" It's not your turn to discuss the family affairs of this palace! Get out of here, get out! Where is Jinyiwei? ”

She was in a trance, and struggled to stand up with the back of her chair.

Blood, blood all over the ground.

She seemed to really see the situation of that night through more than ten years.

It's still in front of you.

Cui Xianchun looked up to the sky and laughed, as if he was a little relieved: "After I die, please hang my head on the tower of Yandu, I want to see the chaos in the world with my own eyes!" ”

As soon as the words fell, Jin Yiwei rushed into the main hall and took Cui Xianchun away.

Shen Zhixi sat down on the ground in a dejected manner, her face turned pale, and her slender fingertips trembled.

Queen mother......

Qi'er misses you......
