Eunuch Qi did not accompany him to court today. Since he confessed his identity as a reborn person, he has been essentially "grounded" in the Qianyuan Hall. The emperor is not in the imperial study, so he cannot enter without permission, but today The two female historians in the royal study got into a lawsuit.

Eunuch Qi's head began to hurt when he looked at the original memorial, which was still spread out on the desk and was ruined by "additional writing". When he looked at the two female historians who were glaring at each other, he couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief - one of them She is a princess, and even though she may be a reborn person, His Majesty's current attitude is still tolerant towards her, so this lawsuit will not be difficult to resolve.

"Female Shi Shi, do you know that the crime of deliberately damaging the memorial... This is still the original thing, and it must be returned to the minister. You... just wait until the eunuch reports to His Majesty for punishment!" Eunuch Qi felt sad and picked up the memorial. He rolled the memorial and stamped his feet repeatedly: "This is the memorial from Governor Xu. He is a minister personally promoted by His Majesty, and he has a very strong temperament. Alas!"

"The eunuch opened his mouth to condemn me. He clearly intended to protect Princess Shi. I did not destroy this memorial. It was Princess Shi who tried to frame me!" Zi Shi was not afraid of the eunuch's prayer at all. She knew that it was early in the morning. It has already been dispersed, and His Majesty will not return to Qianyuan Hall, but Zhongnu Shi will be back soon.

"If I want to put the blame on you, I should taint the memorial you were responsible for transcribing. Even if you and I disagree, we will both have to be punished. My responsibility is lighter than yours, and there is no need for me to lose both sides with you. Because you are no threat to me, why should I do something that harms others but does not benefit myself?" Yingshu was not impatient. Although she was angry in her heart, she knew that the defacement of the memorial was not an irreparable disaster.

Affairs memorials are actually routine official documents. Unless they are urgent matters or require special approval from the imperial court, they are generally not read by the monarch. The volume like the one that was defiled was actually approved by the Chancellor's Desk. It has been reviewed and approved. If you get the transcript, you can't miss an important event. It is nothing more than announcing that the original was defiled, so the transcript was returned. Although it is said that there has never been a strange incident of a female historian defiling a memorial in the Qianyuan Palace, in fact, the transcript was returned Memorials were occasionally lost in transit. If they were originally lost, a new transcript would be issued. No matter how hot-tempered Governor Xu was, he would not get angry over such a trivial matter and would relentlessly pursue the person who had corrupted the original memorial.

"Prince Daughter Shi used this method to retaliate against me because she was emboldened. Yesterday, Princess Daughter Shi hated me for reporting you because she violated the rules of return home, and made you receive the reprimand of Daughter Daughter Middle School. So today she wants to cause me to be expelled. Qianyuan Palace, Princess Shi thinks that your grandfather is a close minister of His Majesty. With your grandfather's support, you can slander others." Zi Shi sneered: "I don't have a powerful grandfather to back me, how dare I slander the memorial and try to frame my background? The powerful princess’s daughter Shi was convicted.”

"Come on, you two, if something like this happens, you must ask His Majesty to judge. There is no need to show off your words. Don't stay here. Go and wait in the verandah outside the hall." Even if Renqi intends to help Ying Shu, he has no discretion in the first place. He thinks that this matter will not be reported to His Majesty immediately and disturbs His Majesty's official business. No matter whether it is the Central Female History or the Central Attendant who reports the details, there is no need for him. Get yourself involved in this dispute.

But eunuch Qi still believed that Yingshu would be the winner after all. Although he led the two people involved to the verandah outside the provincial hall, he only brought a sitting table to Yingshu and handed her a round fan. After being fanned, Zishi could only stand upright, suffering from the scorching summer heat.

The Provincial Hall was originally a place where princes were punished for their mistakes. When the palace servants who made mistakes were waiting for punishment, they would wait in the verandah. Therefore, when Zi Shi and Ying Shu came here, the female officials knew that something had happened. Because the emperor was not in the Qianyuan Hall at this time, many of the female officials were free. Although they did not dare to inquire more, they were all watching not far away. Since they were always close friends with Zi Shi, they waited at the door of the palace to see Zhongnv Shi. When I came back, I informed you immediately.

"I wonder what happened to Princess Shi, which implicated As Shi. Now both of them are waiting outside the provincial court. Judging from the attitude of eunuch Qi, he believes that the fault lies with As Shi. He treats Princess Shi very politely. Just let Ashi stand there for punishment, the middle daughter Shi Ke must uphold justice and don't let Ashi be unjustly accused."

Zhongnvyi went back to the Qianyuan Palace with Zhongnvshi. The little nvshi's words seemed to be biased against Zhongnvshi. She also knew the temperament of this "colleague". In fact, she was quite unafraid of the powerful. But because of this, I have some prejudices against the powerful class, so I looked at it and became anxious: "You haven't figured out what happened, but don't decide which party it is first." It’s your fault, in my opinion, it’s better to wait until the regular attendant comes back and ask him first to find out.”

But the middle-aged female historian couldn't listen to this and strode straight to the provincial court.

When Zi Shi saw the middle-aged woman Shi, his emotions started to get excited. He knelt down on the ground as if he didn't want to kneel any more. He didn't hold back the redness in his eyes, but because of the beads of sweat on his forehead, he looked really embarrassed. Look at Yingshu, sitting on the bench, shaking the fan to fan the wind, her face is fresh and clean, she doesn't look like a person waiting for sin, but like a spectator who comes to watch. Even because the middle girl Shi is approaching, she puts down the fan and stands. When she stood up and was taller than Zi Shi who was kneeling on the ground, Zhongnu Shi believed what Zixu said about "being confident".

Eunuch Qi rushed over again at this time. Seeing that the female historian looked unhappy, he hurriedly said to Xini: "The two female historians each have their own opinions, and there is no third person at the scene. It's really hard to tell who is wronging who. However, Princess Shi's statement is more reasonable. Although she entered the industry late, her talents have been praised by His Majesty many times. Your Majesty seems to appreciate Princess Shi very much. How could Princess Shi be jealous of Princess Shi and put the blame on her?"

At this moment, because of the arrival of Zhongnv Shi, the onlookers were all close. After listening to the eunuch’s prayers, they could not help but feel sorry for Zi Shi. Shi Qianyuan Palace never made any mistakes while on duty. His Majesty also praised Ashi for being cautious and careful. In addition, Ashi has never bullied anyone for so long. We all know that the princess has a noble birth, let alone frame her. I didn’t dare to say anything offensive. Yesterday, Wang Nv Shi deliberately occupied Ashi’s bathroom. Ashi didn’t dare to accuse her. He could only ask Zhongnv Shi to seek justice. Wang Nv Shi actually argued and refused to admit her mistake. We If we don’t accept it, Ashi even advises us not to rush into her and make her hate her.”

This statement was echoed by everyone, and everyone said that they could trust Zi Shi's character, which meant that they recognized Zi Shi as the innocent party. Zhongnv Shi's face became even colder: "Prince Nv Shi's talent is indeed better than mine, but Her temperament is indeed arrogant. Before she joined the Qianyuan Palace, the female officials could get along with each other politely and harmoniously. Occasionally there would be some disputes, but the conflicts never intensified. However, since the princess Shi entered the palace, disputes have begun.

If the princess had no faults in her history, why would it be that once she got into trouble, the normally upright female officials all turned into sinister villains, conspiring to frame her and exclude her? When this disaster happened today, neither the eunuch nor I have the right to decide and punish it, but my The view is completely different from that of the eunuch. "

Ying Shuqing knew that she was the target of public criticism, but she did not argue and only looked thoughtful. However, in the eyes of others, this was the arrogance of knowing that she had the chance to win, so she became even more disgusted and took a fancy to the female history. After leaving, they all followed him consciously. Someone came up with some advice: "Si Qi obviously wants to help Wang Nv Shi, but we can't let him convince Zhong Changshi and convict A Shi without asking any questions. Zhong Nv Shi must be the first to report to His Majesty. I'll wait. They are all willing to testify for Ashi, and we must ask His Majesty to personally administer justice."

Zhongnvshi felt that it was necessary, but of course she would not summon so many female officials to file a complaint aggressively. She said proudly: "Although you are not the witnesses of today's incident, you can all confirm that Zi Shi's conduct has always been good. I have no selfish desires, and I will never lie to harm others. I will tell you your opinions truthfully."

Not far away, the middle daughter Yi watched the middle daughter Shi strutting out of the palace door again, shook her head, and thought to herself: A Qi is not bad-hearted, but she is too headstrong, but she has never realized her shortcomings. I There is no way to wake her up, but looking at the character of the princess's history, she is not a narrow-minded person. Her ambition should not be to replace the princess's history. If she has tolerance, she will not care about it. , maybe she could raise her noble hand and spare the female historians who targeted her.

Sikong Tong was in Hanguang Hall at this time. He had not set foot in this place for a long time. Madam He was overjoyed when he came suddenly. Even if she had never had a deep affection for His Majesty the Emperor, and even if she was not favored, she would not worry about losing her glory and wealth. , but she was always ignored by the emperor, so she had to resort to mutiny to send her son to the throne. Mutiny was risky, and if she could avoid the risk, she should strive for success.

Sikong Tong also had his own purpose in coming to Hanguang Hall.

"The governor of Shuzhou ignored the law and conscripted troops without authorization, and did not pay tribute to the court. He must be disobedient. Today at the court meeting, many ministers suggested using troops against Shuzhou, but the forbidden army is now fighting against Northern Zhao. I plan to He ordered the governor of Yizhou to attack Shuzhou, but Duke He declined, saying that the governor of Yizhou was his uncle and was too old to lead the army in battle."

Mrs. He curled her lips and looked sideways at the emperor: "Father is just trying to vent his anger. The Governor of Yizhou is indeed my great-uncle, but he is two years younger than my father. How can he be so old? Got it, I will do it tomorrow. He summoned my mother to the palace and asked her to persuade my father to obey the decree. But who is the governor of Shuzhou who dares to be rebellious? "

"Jiang Ke, the governor of Shuzhou, was originally a member of the royal family of the Eastern Wu Kingdom. He always supported his troops and respected himself. When I was reestablishing the dynasty, I once attacked him. He surrendered without a fight and knew that he was invincible. Only in recent years has he , he trained several brave sons, who were able to lead armies in battle, and then became rampant again. Originally, it was not necessary for your uncle to go on an expedition, but Shuzhou is close to Yizhou, so it is more convenient to raise food and grass, and the speed of soldiers is more important. ."

"I understand."

Madam He was about to take this opportunity to mention the incident involving Lady Yaochi. It would be best if she could persuade the emperor to withdraw his fate and either give up the Lu family daughter or the "honorable" descendant of the Xuan family. In short, the prince cannot have the best of both worlds. , just as he was thinking about how to speak, Zhang Yong came to convey that the middle daughter Shi Rongqi was asking for an audience outside Hanguang Hall, saying that a major event had happened in Qianyuan Hall and that she must be presented to the emperor for judgment.

"Your Majesty, it's so easy for your Majesty to come here. You won't leave again without talking to me for a few words, right?" Mrs. He gently tugged on the emperor's sleeves and stared at her almond-shaped eyes.

Sikong Tong felt that this coquettish act was quite charming, and he almost couldn't help laughing.

He said, "Let Rong Qi come in and report the matter."

Only then did Mrs. He let go of Sikong Tong's sleeves: "Since this is a matter in the Qianyuan Palace, it is inconvenient for me to hear about it. Let me go and tell the kitchen to prepare some more refreshing and delicious side dishes for His Majesty to drink." But she did not get up, but she still Staring with almond-shaped eyes.

Sikong Tong saw the expectation from his almond-shaped eyes, and he chuckled: "Go to the kitchen, can you tell the difference between onions and garlic? That's all, just stay here. In fact, nothing serious can happen in the Qianyuan Palace, it's just that the servants below We have been free for a long time, and when we are free, things will happen. I never like to argue about these things. It just so happens that you will make the decision for me today."
