After the failed attempt to pretend to be dead, the sickly child was favored by the treacherous mini

"If they are whipped, I will be beaten with a stick."

Shen Jinmo is not a brainless person who doesn't think about the consequences.

He is someone who knows the consequences but still wants to do it.

"I have controlled myself, otherwise none of these people would have survived."

"You are restraining yourself for my sake?" Xia Hong was so angry that he laughed: "Don't you even dare to kill the Eighth Prince?"

"As long as the emperor has the order, I will not refuse even if I die."

After this beating, Shen Jinmo had completely lost his so-called reputation in Luoan. If he lost Xia Hong as his backer, Shen Jinmo would definitely not be able to leave the Divine Capital alive.

Xia Hong's dissatisfaction with Shen Jinmo for not leaving the Princess's Mansion instantly dissipated at this moment.

Xia Hong didn't throw the memorial, but gave Shen Jinmo a quick warning: "Get out of here, and get fifty lashes of the cane. I'll beat you outside the Golden Palace. I want to hear it with my own ears."

"Xiao Linzi, call in all the ministers who have not left the palace yet and are waiting for justice. Let them watch and calm down, so that they won't say that my heart is entirely on this brat."

"My lord, the morning court is over, how can anyone dare to detain you?"

Eunuch Lin looked at the back of the man being escorted out of the Golden Palace by the guards and continued to ask, "How about I go out of the palace now and call them back, and then we can execute them after they arrive?"

"You old thing, you're the only one who thinks so much." Xia Hong cursed Eunuch Lin with a smile.

Eunuch Lin's voice was also full of laughter: "Then I will go now?"

"Come on, give this kid some face."

These words were not only spoken to Shen Jinmo, but also to all the civil and military officials in the court.

Xia Hong's favoritism towards Shen Jinmo has reached such an unreasonable level.

Outside the house, the sound of boards hitting flesh could be heard frequently. Xia Hong's brows were calm. "The Shen family is really full of romantic people."

"Who says it's not true? For the sake of Princess Pingnan, Marquis Wu'an gave up his title, his army, and his achievements. Now he just muddles through in the Imperial Guard Department every day."

The corners of his lips curled up slightly, and Xia Hong was filled with lightness: "Xiao Linzi, how do you think I trained this beast?"

"I don't understand anything else, but the heart of His Highness the Crown Prince must be with you now. He even came to you for help after making a mistake."

Eunuch Lin's words hit Xia Hong's heart, and he immediately made another promise: "You don't need to ask me for the antidote for Chanran in the future. Remember to send it to him in advance."

"I know." Eunuch Lin smiled and poured tea for Xia Hong: "Now you always keep Master Mo in your heart, Master Mo must be grateful for your kindness."

Who doesn’t like a minister who is smart, loyal and capable?

From now on, Shen Jinmo will do the bad things and bear the shame.

When there are no more dissidents in or outside the court, once Shen Jinmo is dealt with, Xia Hong will be able to enjoy a good reputation for thousands of years.

.

After Shen Jinmo was beaten, he was able to turn over and get off the stool by himself, and walked steadily into the Golden Palace: "I thank the emperor for the reward, and I will think twice before doing anything next time."

"Get out." Xia Hong waved at Shen Jinmo repeatedly, as if he didn't want to even look at Shen Jinmo.

But the smart people in this palace can see that Xia Hong treats Shen Jinmo better.

As soon as he stepped down the steps of the Golden Palace, Shen Jinmo saw Xie Nanxing pacing back and forth on the side of the road with his hands clenched on the straps of his school bag.

"Xie Nanxing, didn't you agree that I would pick you up?"

Shen Jinmo calculated the time accurately, so that after being beaten, he could still go to the palace school to pick up Xie Nanxing.

"Han Zhou didn't come because you beat him up, so I can leave as soon as class is over."

Xie Nanxing's eyes were filled with heartache. He didn't see Han Zhou being beaten, but he saw Shen Jinmo being beaten with a stick with his own eyes.

Fifty times, he counted them one by one.

Shen Jinmo naturally knew that Xie Nanxing was distressed because of him.

How could Han Zhou, that coward, deserve Xie Nanxing's sympathy?

However, Shen Jinmo was reluctant to let Xie Nanxing feel distressed for too long.

"I'm fine. Those people are just asking for trouble. They won't dare to mess with you again."

Xie Nanxing took a few steps back, looked at Shen Jinmo's robe soaked with blood, and gently scolded him: "How can it be okay? Is this okay?"

"I told you a long time ago that you can hit others but you can't hurt yourself."

"Now you don't want to listen to what I say?"

He bowed to Xie Nanxing and said, "I definitely won't do that again in the future. Can you please trust me a few more times, Mr. Xie?"

"Ha!" I don't want to waste time talking to Shen Jinmo. He is just kidding me.

And believe it a few more times.

Shen Jinmo probably doesn't want to go home injured every day.

But think about it, who would be willing to get beaten if they could avoid getting hurt?

"Forget it, I'm not angry anymore." Xie Nanxing's tone softened: "You should get hurt less in the future, okay?"

"Okay." He said in a deep voice, much more solemn than the last promise.

"Xie Nanxing, when you were scared this time, did you ask Shen Jinmo to save you?"

Tears of grievance fell again: "I was calling in my heart, you were not in Luoan, you didn't hear it, right?"

Xie Nanxing is really not a person who likes to cry, but he always cries in front of Shen Jinmo.

Seeing Shen Jinmo lower his head, Xie Nanxing's tearful eyes were stained with a smile: "It's okay, I don't blame you, my voice was too soft, I will shout louder next time."

"I heard it, so I came back." Shen Jinmo slowly raised his hand, wanting to wipe away Xie Nanxing's tears, but failed.

"Xie Nanxing, I'm sorry for not keeping my promise to save you."

The sobbing sound was still making golden beans, and Xie Nanxing couldn't bear to see Shen Jinmo looking so apologetic.

Shen Jinmo was not wrong, and Shen Jinmo did not need to feel guilty.

"Shen Jinmo, did you bring a handkerchief?"

Shen Jinmo thought Xie Nanxing didn't bring a handkerchief, so he took out his handkerchief from his arms, placed it steadily on the blooming chrysanthemums, and slowly took two steps back.

Xie Nanxing wiped her tears with Shen Jinmo's handkerchief and said seriously, "I forgive you for using your handkerchief, but remember to come earlier next time."

"Fool."

.

Escorting the bandits into the city through the city gate, Han Shu's Tiger Wing Army were mostly in high spirits, while the people from the Imperial Guards were all covered in dust.

The journey that was supposed to take only one day took three days, and a mere hundred or so bandits encountered several rounds of assassination.

Fortunately, there was no harm.

After locking up all the bandits in jail, Han Shu and Xun Lan led the boss towards the palace.

When they reached the palace gate, Xun Xiang, who had been waiting for a long time, got off the carriage and nodded slightly to Han Shu: "I have also prepared a set of clothes for the princess and put them in the carriage behind. The princess can also put on some makeup before entering the palace."

"Thank you, Xun Xiang."

Han Shu bowed to express her thanks but did not take any action. At such a crucial moment, she could not let the boss have any accidents.

Xun Xiang turned his head to look at Xun Lan. The father and son got into the carriage one after another, and the coachman pulled the carriage forward for a while.

"Lan'er, how do you want to deal with this matter?"

Xun Lan took off his dirty outer robe and put on clean clothes: "Dad, you don't need to say more. I know how serious this is."

Xun Lan is the eldest son taught by Prime Minister Xun himself. How could he not see what Xun Lan wants to do?

"You still want to seek justice for them?"
