No one dared to speak in the imperial study, everyone was waiting quietly.

The two people Xu didn't know where they came from, and they had never encountered this scene in their lives, and their legs trembled when they knelt.

"Hui, Hui, Huang, Emperor"

One of the people, seeing that the other two had not spoken, had no choice but to tremble and say:

"The grass people were far away at that time, and the grass people didn't know exactly what happened, but I remember that Miss Shen was beating people with a whip at that time, and there were a lot of onlookers at that time, and everyone didn't dare to come out easily to stop it."

"Yes, yes, we saw Miss Shen beating people with a whip."

When the other person heard this, he also nodded again and again in approval.

Shen Jiayin beat people is a fact, they said it, neither offended the Xu family, nor did they commit the crime of bullying the king, so that their lives could be saved.

"Your Majesty, look, they all identified it, it was her Shen Jiayin who beat my son!"

Xu stood up and pointed at Shen Jiayin and said.

Although the two did not tell the cause and effect, since they both said that Shen Jiayin had beaten someone, it was also evidence.

Seeing that the emperor did not move, the Xu family set his eyes on Concubine Shu again.

But at this time, Concubine Shu was also a little unsure of the emperor's thoughts, she was a little hesitant, and she didn't know whether to speak again.

"Whew~"

The prince of Nanshang on the side suddenly yawned, attracting everyone's attention.

"What does Prince Nanshang think about this?"

Concubine Shu's eyes lit up when she saw Prince Nanshang start to speak, and she seized this opportunity to ask.

The emperor also looked at Prince Nanshang, indeed, he just had some scruples about Prince Nanshang, so he was a little hesitant about how to deal with this matter, and Concubine Shu's question was exactly what he wanted.

"Prince Ben? What can Prince Ben think? ”

Prince Nanshang has nothing to do with me, I am just a bystander.

"However, these things in our Nanshang do not need to be in front of my father and emperor at all, and those who beat people indiscriminately can be dealt with directly in accordance with the law."

After the prince of Nanshang finished speaking, he also threw Shen Jiayin a reassuring look, and Shen Jiayin was confused.

"Yes, the courtier's requirements are not high, since she Shen Jiayin beat my son, she will use the law of our Daliang to seek justice for my son!"

Prince Nanshang's words won the heart of the Xu family, yesterday when she saw her son come back with a body of blood, she wanted to break Shen Jiayin's body into pieces, but someone came with the news that the queen summoned her into the palace and asked her Shen Jiayin to be the crown princess.

Hearing the news, she couldn't sleep all night last night, and she couldn't swallow this breath.

This morning, she waited for news all morning, and it wasn't until after the dispersal of the dynasty that she learned that the position of the crown princess may not be her Shen Jiayin.

After knowing this, she didn't want to mention how happy she was, she hurriedly entered the palace to find her daughter, just to get justice for her Zifeng, if she swallowed this matter like this, how would she raise her head in the circle of noblewomen in the capital in the future?

"In Daliang, those who hurt people at will on the street will be beaten with 20 boards, or they will be put in prison for the rest of their lives."

The prince, who had been silent for a long time, looked at Shen Jiayin with his eyebrows and said.

The twenty boards are too cruel for a woman, but if you can use this to suppress Shen Jiayin's limelight and beat it, it is not impossible.

Prince Nanshang glanced at the prince, looked at the Xu family, spoke lightly, and continued:

"However, in our Nanshang, molesting women on the street and forcing them to become prostitutes is to cut off the root of their lives and exile them to a bitter cold land to work as coolies."

"You--"

Xu Shi looked at Prince Nanshang in shock, and his heart was cold, not knowing what he meant by saying this.

Shen Jiayin raised his eyebrows and looked at Prince Nanshang, did he choose to believe his own words?

"Your Majesty."

Prince Nanshang ignored Xu's shock, but stood up, looked at the emperor with his hands in fists, and said:

"Do you still remember, what Prince Ben told you yesterday that I want to marry Shen Jiayin and return to Nanshang?"

"Huh?"

The Emperor looked at Prince Nanshang with interest, waiting for his next words.

"That's because yesterday I saw on the street that she was not afraid of evil, and with one enemy and five enemies, she knocked to the ground all those who wanted to be rude to her, and that demeanor, that means, and that whip were thrown off, so that Prince Ben couldn't take his eyes off it at all."

Prince Nanshang turned around, looked at Shen Jiayin with deep eyes, and said in a deep voice:

"Such a woman, with this prince, it is simply a perfect match, a natural pair!"

Prince Nanshang's eyes are very good-looking, and with his strange costume, he looks particularly outstanding in this imperial study.

At this time, if Shen Jiayin hadn't decided to shoulder the fate of the Shen family, maybe she would have really been fascinated by the prince of Nanshang in front of her.

The emperor didn't expect Prince Nanshang to be able to make such a play, but looking at Prince Nanshang's eyes, it seems that he still hasn't given up the idea of letting Shen Jiayin marry him.

"This ......"

Xu Shi was stunned, the development of this matter had completely exceeded her expectations, and she looked at her daughter in confusion.

But at this time, Concubine Shu knew better than anyone else that her brother was beaten, whether they wanted to or not, they could only swallow it silently, otherwise, her brother's life would be difficult to protect.

"Your Majesty, it seems that yesterday's incident was a misunderstanding."

After thinking for a while, Concubine Shu stood up with her stomach in her hands, looked at the emperor with a smile and said:

"My brother probably thought that Miss Shen was as beautiful as a flower, so he stepped forward to talk to her, Xu was reckless that annoyed Miss Shen, and was beaten by Miss Shen, and it was also my brother's fault."

After Concubine Shu finished speaking, she walked in front of Shen Jiayin again, smiled at Shen Jiayin, and said apologetically:

"My brother is reckless, and I hope that Miss Shen Haihan forgave my brother this time."

"Mother, she ......"

I don't know why my daughter suddenly said this, Xu looked at Concubine Shu with some puzzlement and dissatisfaction, and wanted to say something, but was stopped by Concubine Shu's eyes.

"Since I hit him yesterday, this matter will naturally be in the past." Shen Jiayin replied lightly.

"Okay, Miss Shen really lives up to her reputation and is a cheerful person."

Concubine Shu looked at Shen Jiayin's eyes with a hint of sharpness, but she covered it up so well that no one else could see it.

Then, the lady lady held her belly, walked up to the emperor, and said softly:

"Your Majesty, the concubine is a little lacking, and the concubine's younger brother is reckless, but since he has been punished, otherwise forget it."

Since you can't get justice, you should stop the loss in time, otherwise it will really be bad.

The emperor naturally knew that Concubine Shu wanted to protect her mother, but when he saw Prince Nanshang's smiling face, he was faintly unhappy.

"Prince, tell me, this matter should be handled like this now"

The emperor looked at the crown prince and said with a somewhat gloomy face.

Seeing his father looking at him, the crown prince knew that his father was scheming about Prince Nanshang.

The prince pondered for a moment, and then raised his head and said:

"Father, the sons feel that there is something wrong with Shen Jiayin and Xu Zifeng in this matter."

"Xu Zifeng went out to tease others first, and Shen Jiayin hurt others later."

The prince turned around, looked deeply at Shen Jiayin and said:

"Xu Zifeng did something wrong, naturally there is a law to govern it, not by you, Shen Jiayin, who abused the lynching."

In fact, when the prince knew that Shen Jiayin had just come back yesterday and hurt people, the prince hated Shen Jiayin even more in his heart, she was as arrogant and unreasonable as before.

Shen Jiayin looked at the prince without humility or arrogance, and was silent.

Now that Prince Nanshang had already testified on her behalf, she didn't need to say anything more.

"So Erchen thinks that both of them should be punished!"

The crown prince looked at the emperor and told him the results of his thoughts.

As soon as Xu heard the prince's words, she immediately became anxious, and she looked at Concubine Shu vigorously.

Concubine Shu was also very surprised by the prince's words, she looked at the prince with some dissatisfaction and said:

"Prince, my brother is already very miserable, he was covered with blood yesterday, and the doctor also said that this has moved to the muscles and bones, and he must rest well, otherwise there will be hidden dangers."

The crown prince ignored Concubine Shu's words, but continued:

"According to the law of our Daliang, whoever molests the women of the people in the street shall have thirty rods."

"Those who beat people in the street are at least twenty feet."

Xu Shi heard this, and then he had to take the board, and his son had to be beaten by the board after such a pass, and the most important thing was that he had to suffer ten more boards than the culprit Shen Jiayin, how could she bear it?

Xu Shi took a step forward, and said ruthlessly as if he was at home:

"Prince, my son can no longer bear any punishment now, if you want to be punished, then punish the courtiers!"

The prince was silent.

"Okay, okay, what are you guys like when you're so noisy!"

The Emperor suddenly became angry and said sharply.

Xu silently closed his mouth, lowered his head and did not dare to speak.

"Ah......h

Concubine Shu suddenly held her stomach and cried out in pain.

"Your Majesty...... The concubine's stomach hurts. ”

Concubine Shu clutched her stomach and said with a painful expression.

"Quick! Xuan Taiyi! ”

The emperor looked at Gonggong Xu on the side and said, Gonggong Xu walked out of the imperial study quickly.

With the permission of the emperor, Concubine Shu's palace maid helped Concubine Shu to the soft couch on the side to rest.

And the emperor looked at the people here with a displeased face, and said angrily:

"If there is anything wrong with the dragon fetus in Concubine Shu's arms, don't even think about living one or two!"

Then, the emperor looked at Shen Jiayin again and said:

"Shen Jiayin, the daughter of Shen Guogong, scolded Xu Zifeng on the street, and when she was punished, she was punished for copying female virtues a hundred times."

"And Xu Jianfei's son Xu Zifeng molested the people on the street and disturbed the peace of the capital, he should have been beaten with thirty boards, but he was injured, and when he was injured, he would go to the Beijing government to receive the punishment."

The emperor's words fell on Xu's ears, and she squeezed the handkerchief in her hand tightly, suppressing her anger.

She couldn't figure it out, why did the emperor favor Shen Jiayin, even if it was according to the law, Shen Jiayin would have to be punished, why did she only need to copy the female virtue a few times and it would be over?

"As for a few of you."

The emperor's eyes fell on the kneeling servant on the ground and the two commoners, and said lightly:

"Pull down the top ten boards, dare to enter the palace without knowing what is going on, and talk nonsense in front of me."

"Thank you for your kindness!"

"Thank you for your kindness!"

When they heard that the emperor was going to beat Xu Zifeng with thirty boards, those people thought that the emperor was going to cut off their heads, and when they saw that the emperor only let them take ten boards, and did not ask for their lives, they all thanked them happily.
