The scumbag general knelt down and begged for mercy

Chapter 169

Yuanzong went directly to Shangshufu.

When Shen Huai heard that King Qi was coming, he felt bad, lost the letter, and King Qi would come right away, how could it be such a coincidence.

"Minister, see King Qi." After saluting, Shen Huai took a sizing look at Yuan Zong.

Yuan Zong smiled: "I don't have anything to do here, I just came to have a look and have a cup of tea by the way, didn't I disturb Lord Shangshu?"

Shen Huai's heart pounded, but he didn't say anything, and invited Yuan Zong in.

Yuan Zong sat on the chair with a gentle smile on his face.

"I received a letter before, and the things mentioned in the letter were extremely unfavorable to the Shangshu. Fortunately, I stopped the letter." After Yuan Zong finished speaking, he glanced at Shen Huai: "I think the Shangshu doesn't know about it yet, right? ?”

Shen Huai hurriedly shook his head: "What's the matter, the lower officials don't know."

"It's good that you don't know, otherwise, your son's beheading will hurt you." Yuan Zong said the most ruthless words in the most gentle voice: "Call the third son, I have something to see him."

Shen Huai pressed his trembling hand, his voice was weak: "Go and call Shen Zhao."

The housekeeper walked down, and after a while brought Shen Zhao, who was still injured, into the hall.

"Shen Zhao sees the King of Qi." Because Shen Zhao was injured, he only saluted slightly.

Yuan Zong cast a glance: "A few days ago, you went to the tavern and lost a letter when you came out. That letter happened to fall into the hands of this king. Do you have anything to say about this?" After saying this, Yuan Zong paused After a while, he continued: "Think clearly, this is going to kill your head."

Shen Zhao was timid at first, but after being hit by Yuan Zong, his legs softened and he knelt down on the ground.

Seeing this, Shen Huai hurriedly stepped forward: "I warned you on weekdays to avoid associating with those who don't know what to do, now it's all right, something went wrong."

"What Shang Shu said is wrong. Xiao Chang is a great general. The word four or six is ​​not suitable for him." Yuan Zong stretched out his hand to pick up the tea on the side and blew on it, then put it down again.

Shen Huai didn't see that letter, and didn't know what was written in that letter. Now that Yuan Zong said that, his heart began to tremble.

Shen Zhao lowered his head, not knowing whether it was a wound or fear, his whole body could not stop shaking.

"Tell me, you are the only one who died. If you don't say it, the whole Shangshu Mansion will die." Yuan Zong looked at Shen Huai: "Master Shangshu understands what I mean?"

When Shen Zhao heard this, the meaning of these words was to let him take everything down, and then kill him alone, but why, it was obviously his father who did it, and he was just helping to deliver the letter, and he couldn't bear the two elder brothers. , chose him, the purpose is not obvious, something happened to let him die.

"King Qi, King Qi, I don't know anything. I'm just a messenger. The person who communicates with General Xiaochang must not be me." After speaking, Shen Zhao glanced at Shen Huai who was standing beside him.

Shen Huai hated that iron could not be made into steel, and wished he could immediately reach out and strangle this useless thing to death.

Yuan Zong looked at Shen Huai: "Your son is disobedient, he doesn't understand what this king means, does Lord Shang Shu also understand? I don't want to take care of the affairs of the court, and I can't take care of it..."

After hearing this, Shen Huai raised his head: "Understood, understood, understood." The king of Qi clearly wanted to let him go, as long as Shen Zhao took over the matter, he would have nothing to do with him. At worst, he would not be an official, at least he would save his life. up.

You can't blame others, and you can't do enough to make things worse.

Shen Zhao didn't care about other things, and pulled Long Zong's clothes: "King Qi, I have evidence, I have evidence, it's really not me, it's really not me." Shen Zhao kowtowed twice after finishing speaking.

Shen Huai directly covered Shen Zhao's mouth.

"You made King Qi laugh." Shen Huai tightly covered Shen Zhao's mouth, not letting him speak.

Yuan Zong got up and nodded: "I'll take that person away. I don't have any objections. By the way, you must have a lot of money. Remember, send it to the Prince Zhen's Mansion..."

Upon hearing this, Shen Huai was even more sure that King Qi wanted to help him, and nodded repeatedly.

"King Qi, don't worry, I understand."

Yuan Zong dragged Shen Zhao out of Shangshu Mansion, collecting evidence was too troublesome, it would be easier and less labor-intensive to go directly to ask for evidence.

After Yuan Zong brought Shen Zhao back to Zhenwang's Mansion, Xie Sifan and Xiaoxiang's father-in-law were stunned, didn't they say to investigate, why did they bring him back.

"This..." Eunuch Xiaoxiang looked at Yuanzong hesitantly: "Bring it back?"

Yuan Zong sat on the chair and took Xiao Xiang's father-in-law's hand, motioning him to sit down.

Eunuch Xiaoxiang was a little embarrassed and chose to sit next to him. Yuan Zong was a little dissatisfied, but knowing that Eunuch Xiaoxiang was thin-skinned, he didn't force him.

Yuan Zong turned sideways and whispered the whole thing in Eunuch Xiaoxiang's ear.

Eunuch Xiao Xiang glared at Yuan Zong, it was the first time he saw someone doing things like this, he went to ask for someone directly, Shen Huai must have been frightened, otherwise he wouldn't have believed Yuan Zong's words.

Shen Zhao knelt on the ground: "King Qi, really, I am only responsible for delivering the letter. Although I will peek at the contents of the letter, I really, really didn't participate in anything else."

Yuan Zong nodded.

"Didn't you say that you have evidence?" Yuan Zong said indifferently: "As long as you hand over the evidence, I can consider whether to protect you or..."

Shen Zhao heard that there was no room for turning around, so he kowtowed.

"Letter, I left two letters, which is enough to prove that this matter was done by my father and has nothing to do with me." After Shen Zhao finished speaking, he looked at Yuan Zong: "The letter asked me to put it in a brothel, but... ..." Shen Zhao hesitated for a while: "But that brothel was seized, it was the one opened by the former prince."

"..."

"What about the letter?" Yuan Zong frowned.

Shen Zhao lowered his head: "In the hands of a girl named Little Cherry, but she was redeemed and disappeared."

"!!!"

Xie Sifan was taken aback, Little Cherry, isn't that his sister?But why have never heard of her.

"Song An, go and call Xie Ying back, and just say that I have something to do with her."

"Yes."

Xie Ying was busy with the newly opened shop on the street, and when Song An said that Xie Sifan was looking for her, she hurried back to Zhenwang's Mansion without caring about anything else.

"Brother, are you looking for me?" Xie Ying quickly walked in front of Xie Sifan.

Shen Zhao saw Xie Ying rushing forward: "Miss Cherry, do you still remember me, do you remember that I gave you two letters?"

Seeing Shen Zhao, Xie Ying's face immediately sank, no matter how well she is doing now, it can't change the fact that she used to be in a brothel.

Xie Sifan pulled Xie Ying into his hand: "Those two letters are very important, think about it."

Xie Ying bit her lower lip.

Xie Sifan stood up and patted Xie Ying's head.

"It's in my locker." Xie Ying said and looked at Xie Sifan: "Brother..."

Xie Sifan held Xie Yinglou in his arms: "The past cannot be changed, face the past and move forward."

Xie Ying rubbed the tears in Xie Sifan's arms, then sniffed: "I'm going to get the letter. I hesitated before and wanted to throw it away, but after thinking about it, I decided to keep it."

Xie Ying went back to the yard and took out the two letters and handed them to Xie Sifan.

Xie Sifan handed it to Yuan Zong without looking at it.

Yuan Zong opened the letter and looked at it, as long as these two letters were handed over to the emperor, the matter would be almost settled.

Shen Zhao looked at Yuanzong: "King Qi, I, will I die?"

"No." Yuan Zong looked at Shen Zhao and said, "But I guess I can't escape from prison."

Shen Zhao nodded: "It's okay, it's okay."

Eunuch Xiao Xiang glanced at Yuan Zong, isn't this a lie, Shen Huai is embezzling and deceiving the emperor, but he will be executed all over the house, it's no wonder that Shen Zhao, as Shen Huai's son, can escape.

Xie Sifan rubbed his stomach: "It's so boring, I thought I was just playing around, but it turned out to be solved by Brother Zong so easily." Xie Sifan thought that handling cases in ancient times, especially this kind of corruption and bribery cases, would take a lot of money. It's great.

"Take him down." After finishing speaking, Yuan Zong stood up and took Eunuch Xiaoxiang back to the side courtyard. This matter was very cumbersome to deal with, but Eunuch Xiaoxiang said that Shen Zhao complained about Shen Huai, so this matter will be fine. solved.

After returning to the house, Eunuch Xiaoxiang said, "It's really you, so handle the case like this."

Yuanzong lowered his head and kissed Xiaoxiang's father-in-law on the face: "Are you a good husband?"

Eunuch Xiaoxiang blushed and nodded.

Yuan Zong kissed her directly.

"Uncle Xiang, are you there?" An Changle stood at the door holding a bowl of soup.

Yuanzong whispered in Xiaoxiang's eunuch's ear: "I don't want you to adopt him as a foster son at all, it's too much of a hindrance."

Eunuch Xiaoxiang pushed Yuanzong away and glared at him.

Yuan Zong quit, it's not a big deal, and he stared at him after saying a word, what to do after this.

"Don't open the door, kiss me." Yuan Zong sullenly.

Eunuch Xiaoxiang ignored him and opened the door directly.

"Uncle Xiang, both Uncle Fan and Uncle Yi drank the newly stewed soup in the kitchen." An Changle scratched his head: "There's only so much left, drink some too."

"Uncle Fan gave it to you, right? You're still growing, you can drink it, I don't like soup." The more Xiaoxiang father-in-law looks at An Changle, the more he likes it. This little adult is so attractive.

An Changle shook his head: "I've finished eating the meat buns."

Eunuch Xiaoxiang nodded, took the bowl and took two sips: "I can't drink any more, I'll give you the rest."

An Changle held the bowl, and the snot bubbled out from laughing.

"Go and play." Eunuch Xiaoxiang patted An Changle's head.

An Changle drank the remaining soup, nodded, and happily ran to the front yard.

Eunuch Xiaoxiang went back to the room to rinse his mouth, and saw Yuan Zong sitting on the bed with a dark face.

Eunuch Xiaoxiang poured a cup of tea and walked to Yuanzong: "What's the matter, this is, who offended you."

Yuanzong directly pressed Eunuch Xiaoxiang on the bed: "Tell me, who do you like the most?"

The tea was spilled directly on the bed.

"I like you, of course I like you." Eunuch Xiaoxiang tried to push Yuanzong away with one hand: "Stop making trouble, the tea is all spilled."

Yuan Zong snorted coldly twice.

Then kissed.

Eunuch Xiaoxiang didn't know why Yuanzong was angry at all. In the end, not only tea was sprinkled, but also Eunuch Xiaoxiang's... Anyway, at night, the bed was in such a mess that no one could sleep at all.

Eunuch Xiaoxiang stood aside with limp legs, watching Yuanzong make the bed.

"Let me tell you what's good about you, compete with a child..." Xiaoxiang's father-in-law was very helpless.
