As Jing Xuan expected, the matter of Lichu passed tacitly.

Starting tomorrow, Meng Ze will take over half of the military power of the Chiting Army on the outskirts of the city, that is, 40,000 soldiers and horses.

It is the garrison of the North Camp, the Northwest Camp, the West Camp and the Southwest Camp in the suburbs of Beijing, with 10,000 people in each camp.

The Shen family's disposition was also discussed, and the Rongen Guild was stripped of the title.

The absurd things he did were pushed to his son and younger brother and he was taken out, but as the head of the family, he did not restrain himself well, connived at his relatives and children to make great mistakes, and abolished his title as a punishment.

The son of the world, Shen Tancao, was misbehaved in human life, and the son of the world was beheaded after the abolition of the throne, and his mother and son committed murder and evil, and was abolished and given death.

The second and fourth rooms of the Shen family, as well as the relatives of the side branches, also had to be guilty of the Shen family's many notorieties outside, or killed or exiled to the bitter cold land.

All the bereavement benefits in the victims' families were offset by half of the family property that the Shen family had forfeited.

Naturally, the above is not announced today, but it is agreed that it will be dealt with in this way, and in the next few days, the emperor will ask people to pretend to investigate it, and then 'determine' the crimes and deal with them one by one.

There is still a charter.

After it was really disposed of, the Shen family lost its title, and the side branches withered, leaving only the sons and daughters of Shen Taiji, the Duke of Rongen, and his concubines.

As for Chu Yujin, on the surface, he is going to die, and when he is convicted, Chu Yujin will be Ling Chi's death crime, and the crime of killing his mother is still so big, which is inevitable.

After being convicted, Chu Yujin will 'self-immolate' and die, so he can only whip the corpse as punishment.

From now on, Chu Yujin can no longer appear in his true face and true identity, so he will not only have to flee incognito, but also be disfigured.

Then there is Chu Yucheng, as Jing Xuan and Chu Huan expected, the emperor did consider starting with his marriage, and with a gentle strategy, he boiled a frog in warm water to hold the military power of the Chu family, and clearly said that when he was given the title of the prince, he would give the marriage together.

There are two candidates, one is the fifth princess, born to the emperor and a concubine, and is now less than nine years old.

There is also the second daughter of the Anyang Palace, the ten-year-old lord of Yiyang this year, that is, Yao Ruoan's sister-in-law.

As soon as Chu Huan heard Jing Xuan say this, he couldn't help but sneer: "He is reluctant, either the princess or the county lord." ”

Jing Xuan's expression was faint, and he sneered slightly: "Compared to gathering authority, whether it is a daughter or a niece, they are just tools and chess pieces, and compared to military power, they are nothing, so he naturally does not hesitate." ”

Chu Huan said annoyedly: "If you have to give marriage, it can't be from Anyang Palace, whether it can be done or not, I don't want my brother to have anything to do with Anyang Palace." ”

Jing Xuan said: "I know, so I told him, if you have to give marriage, you will marry the fifth princess, not to mention anything else, his own daughter is more credible than the others, after all, although the Anyang Royal Mansion is loyal to him, it also supports the queen's mother and son." ”

Chu Huan nodded and said, "I still have to find a time to go back to Chu's house and talk to my mother and Yucheng, but now I have to deal with it in advance,"

She narrowed her eyes slightly and said: "Chu Yujin's life can be saved, but this matter is all decided by us, and we haven't told him yet, I have to meet him and confirm whether he is worth it for us to bother so much to protect his life." ”

Jing Xuan said: "Then I'll let people get him out and let you see him?" ”

Chu Huan thought about it, she was pregnant with a child, it was really not suitable to go to see Chu Yujin in prison, and Chu Yujin had not yet let her see her in person.

She nodded, "Okay." ”

However, she was a little worried: "He is now a serious offender, will it be more troublesome to bring him up for me to see?" ”

Jing Xuan shook his head slightly, and said indifferently: "No, it's just a trivial matter, as long as it's not a prison robbery, it's okay." ”

"Okay then."

In the evening, Dongqing really brought Chu Yujin here.

After staying in the edict prison for a day and a night, Chu Yujin's whole person was depressed, and he looked embarrassed from top to bottom and from the inside to the outside.

But he was not tortured.

This case is clearly what's going on, not only is the evidence conclusive and the motive is clear, but Chu Yujin himself has admitted it, so there is no need for torture and interrogation.

However, the crime of killing his mother is extremely heinous, that is, he has not yet been punished, and if he continues to stay in prison for a few days, someone will greet him well because of his disdainful behavior.

When he saw Chu Huan, he was not surprised, his expression was still depressed, and he looked like he was waiting for death with all his thoughts in despair.

He has today, although Deng himself did commit adultery and died, it can be Chu Huan who single-handedly created the current situation, but when he looked at Chu Huan's eyes, he didn't even have anger and resentment.

There was only a dead silence.

Chu Huan looked at it, couldn't help but smile a little faintly, and said quietly: "You look like you are calmly waiting to die, it seems that you are ready to be executed by Ling Chi and die?" ”

Chu Yujin smiled bitterly and said in a low voice: "The matter has come to this, I can't live, I don't wait for death calmly, what else can I do?" ”

After a pause, he raised his eyes to look at Chu Huan without reluctance, and said: "But I won't wait to be Ling Chi, I will finish myself before then, if you want to torture me, I'm afraid that I won't have a chance." ”

He can die, but not in all torment.

Chu Huan raised his eyebrows, just laughed at this, and asked suddenly: "Chu Yujin, do you hate me?" ”

Chu Yujin was stunned for a moment and did not answer.

Just looked at Chu Huan, and then withdrew his gaze and lowered his eyelids slightly, and his eyes seemed to be a little confused.

Chu Huan said: "You are the proud son of the sky, born as the concubine of the Chu family, the future heir to the throne of the national prince, holding the military power, you could have been glorious for a lifetime, but I ruined everything for you, do you hate me?" ”

Chu Yujin was silent for a while, and then smiled with a wry smile: "I should, I can't hate the princess." ”

Chu Huan was slightly surprised and looked at him.

Chu Yujin said: "If it is framed, if it is maliciously targeted, I should hate it, but in the end, it is my mother who is willing to be cheap and do such shameless things, you are just the hand to uncover the truth, although I am her son, I will not be as unreasonable as her." ”

After a pause, he said: "When I made up my mind to kill her, I also thought about this result, but I can't help but bet on this, it was also because I underestimated you and overestimated myself that I ended up like this, but I have nothing to blame you for. ”

Chu Yujin is indeed not like Chu Shuxiu Deng.

He is more responsible and courageous than the husband and wife.

Although it is said that on the day the matter was revealed, he also vigorously denied the defense, and then he escaped, but people are instinctively greedy for life and afraid of death, and always have to die and struggle.

But now, he is calm.

Chu Huan looked at his face and asked him with a little meaning: "If you are given a chance to live, do you want to live?" ”

Hearing this, Chu Yujin raised his eyes, and there seemed to be a little light in his eyes.

Seeing that Chu Huan was not joking, but had such a serious look, he was stunned, and asked rhetorically, "You...... Will it keep me alive? ”
