When Jiang Lin called his name, Shen Zhengyi felt like he had fallen into an ice cellar, and waves of cold breath crept up from the soles of his feet into his heart.

What is this shameless kid Jiang Lin talking about?

"My father?" At this time, Shen Lian's voice echoed in the hall.

Everyone turned their heads and looked at Shen Zhengyi who was sitting at the banquet seat.

The prince and Emperor Jinglong also looked at Shen Zhengyi.

Mo Junli broke the jade chopsticks with his hands, and Emperor Jinglong crushed the tea cup.

The gazes of father and son were like thousands of arrows, shooting into Shen Zhengyi's heart.

Only then did Shen Zhengyi experience the feeling of "you can't wash away even if you jump into the Yellow River". Jiang Lin's move was so vicious.

"I only believe in Mr. Shen. I want Mr. Shen to be the chief inquisitor. The third division will examine and the six departments will supervise the case of the Jiang family being massacred. I, the Jiang family, all died unjustly. I am wronged. I am so wronged. Please help me, Mr. Shen. Jiang family." Jiang Lin raised his hands and bowed to Shen Zhengyi.

Shen Zheng swayed, with thousands of thoughts running through his mind. He had been in politics for decades, and this was the first time he tasted blood on the edge of a knife and felt the strongest sense of death.

In front of the emperor and officials, and in front of all the nobles in the capital, Jiang Lin lifted him up high, as if he was on a altar, respecting him, trusting him, and relying on him.

But why not hang him on a high building, let him step on sharp knives, be attacked from both sides, and look like a human being inside and outside.

Okay, great, this is a really clever plan to alienate people.

Shen Zheng turned his head and looked in the direction of Queen Shen. Queen Shen's eyes were also full of complaints.

The emperor was already very afraid of the Jiang family. He trusted the Jiang family on the surface, but secretly wanted to get rid of them quickly. However, the Shen family got involved in this troubled water. If the Jiang and Shen families were tied together, then the Shen family and she, the queen, would be together. Very embarrassing.

Shen Zhengyi stood up from the banquet, knelt heavily on the ground, kowtowed to the ground and said, "I am willing to listen to the emperor's arrangements."

Emperor Jinglong coughed violently several times. After Qin Taiyi applied acupuncture on the top of his skull, he slowly got better.

Queen Shen was rubbing Emperor Jinglong's back, but Emperor Jinglong pushed her away calmly.

He was helped up by Gao Kan and said, "Then are you willing to try the Jiang family's case?"

His eyes were sharp, and his words conveyed a majesty that was not angry but majestic.

Shen Zhengyi closed his eyes deeply. If he said he didn't want to, tens of thousands of people would be staring at the Jiang family outside the palace. He, Shen Zhengyi, would be cast aside by all the people before he even walked out of the palace.

If he wishes, he will make the prince abandon his heart and lose his sacred heart.

Whether he wants to or not is not up to him. He can only choose a path of no return...

When Shen Zheng opened his eyes again, he replied with firm eyes: "Reporting to the emperor, I am willing to try the Jiang family case."

"Cough, cough, cough..." Emperor Jinglong coughed again.

This time he coughed for a long time. Queen Shen wanted to come forward to serve her, but Emperor Jinglong avoided her. He drank the tea handed by Concubine Liu, but did not want to look at Queen Shen.

"Okay, then I will grant you the position of acting minister of Dali Temple, and handle the Jiang family case together with the three divisions and six departments."

"Thank you for your trust, Your Majesty. I will fulfill your mission to find out the Jiang family's case and restore peace to Jianghe." Shen Zheng kowtowed to express his gratitude, feeling extremely sad in his heart.

A birthday party.

He rose from the third rank as Minister of Rites, to the sixth rank as Doctor of Rites, and then to the third rank as Minister of Dali Temple.

A joke like his is probably unprecedented and unprecedented.

Jiang Lin was taken into custody by the Forbidden Army.

When he was led out of the hall by the Imperial Guards, Jiang Lin glanced in the direction of Shen Wan. After stepping out of the hall, Jiang Lin suddenly shouted: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your sage, Sir Shen, who is willing to explain the case where the entire Jiang family was massacred."

Emperor Jinglong rolled his eyes and fell into Concubine Liu's arms.

Empress Dowager Liu jumped up from her chair: "Hurry and carry the Emperor back to Qianqing Palace."

Mo Junli also stood up from his chair, and when he was about to let people arrest the people who spread the papers, Mrs. Zhou of Zhenguo Palace suddenly shouted: "Aci, Aci, why are you vomiting so much blood? Doctor Luo, hurry up!" Help my son, he vomited a lot of black blood."

Mo Junli turned back to look in the direction of Xie Yujin, only to find that Shen Wan was no longer in the hall at some point.

He frowned and walked quickly to Xie Yujin: "Have someone carry the thank you to the side hall. Doctor Luo, give Young Master Xie a good look. Don't let him die here."

The Jiang family's affairs are already troublesome enough. If the young master of Zhenguo Palace dies on the Queen Mother's birthday, the Shang Dynasty will be completely in chaos.

"Jiang Xinzhu, please come out of here." Mo Junli walked past Shen Lian and hurried out of the hall.

Jiang Xinshu followed behind.

A member of the Imperial Guard suddenly came over and said, "Your Highness, three of the maids whom the Emperor ordered to be executed with a stick just now escaped."

"Escaped, why don't you find him quickly?" Mo Junli scolded: "Jiang Xinzhu, return to your Jiang Mansion quickly and capture your brother Jiang Xingui and Zhang Zhou."

"Wei Chen is here." Zhang Zhou is the deputy commander of the Yulin Army.

Mo Junli looked at the piles of papers at his feet and reached out to pick up a pile: "Find out the people who spread these things and send people to seal the palace gate. No palace residents are allowed to go out these days. Every car leaving the palace is carefully searched." carriage."

"Yes, Your Highness the Crown Prince." Zhang Zhou waved his hand and left with a group of Yulin troops.

After receiving Mo Junli's order, Jiang Xinzhu also led the imperial army out of the palace to capture his brother Jiang Xingui.

Mo Junli tore off the paper in his hand, turned around and asked the chamberlain guarding outside the palace: "Have you seen Mrs. Xie?"

"Mrs. Xie is going that way." The chamberlain pointed to the palace corridor behind him.

"On her own?"

"Yes, Your Highness the Crown Prince."

At this time, Zhen Guo Gong walked out of the Star Picking Tower with Xie Yujin on his back.

Mo Junli's eyes fell on Xie Yujin's face. After a while, Xie Yujin's face turned gloomy, her lips were dark purple, and her whole body was covered with a layer of death, like a dead tree, no longer alive.

When Duke Zhen Guo carried Xie Yujin across the threshold, he almost tripped over the threshold. Mo Junli reached out to help Duke Zhen Guo.

The Duke of Zhen Guo nodded his thanks repeatedly and carried Xie Yujin to the side hall. A group of imperial doctors followed the Duke of Zhen and entered the side hall to detoxify Xie Yujin.

Dr. Luo was the last one to come out. Mo Junli stopped him and asked, "Find out what kind of poison he was poisoned with?"

Imperial Physician Luo bowed and replied: "Reporting to His Royal Highness, Holy Doctor Qin just told Wei Chen that Young Master Xie was poisoned by Nanxia Poison and must take the antidote within an hour. However, there is no antidote for this poison in Tai's Hospital." Medicine, if Young Master Xie cannot take the antidote within an hour, he... will definitely die."

Qin Imperial Physician is currently dealing with Emperor Jinglong, so he has no time to take care of Young Master Xie.

Doctor Luo was not sure at all.

Mo Junli said nothing and walked quickly in the direction where Shen Wan left.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince." Shen Lian chased him out of the palace, but Mo Junli was already gone.

King Jin just happened to help Gu Mingzhu walk out of the palace and told Gu Mingzhu: "The palace is in chaos. My father suddenly fell ill. I want to stay and deal with the affairs in the palace. You are heavy and can't be too tired. I will let you I will escort you back to the palace first."

"Okay, Your Majesty, you don't have to worry about my concubine and the children. I will take care of them." Gu Mingzhu reached out and stroked her bulging belly.

King Jin looked deeply at Gu Mingzhu's abdomen with complicated eyes: "Come out of the palace."

Gu Mingzhu left the Star Reaching Tower with the support of everyone.

The family members of hundreds of officials also left the palace one after another.

King Jin turned around, and many officials and their family members bowed to him and left.

But among the crowd, he noticed Shen Lian standing at the end of the palace corridor.

King Jin narrowed his eyes slightly. After all the officials and their families left the palace, he walked towards Shen Lian...
