Qin Chengjun also looked at the emperor warily.

Now he knew the princess's feelings for him, and they had wasted ten years.

If the emperor objected, he would abandon his official position and take the princess and daughter away.

Thinking of this, his expression couldn't help but become desperate.

Chen Wen's face twisted slightly.

The princess had disliked him for the past ten years, and he had been venting his displeasure by creating chaos.

If the sadomasochism continues, the way he vents his dissatisfaction is...

It seems that the only thing left is self-harm!

The ministers also speculated: The emperor would not do this, would he? No way, no way?

What kind of twisted emperor could do such a thing!

Faced with suspicion and speculation from ministers, Emperor Jingming's eyes twitched and he stared at Ye Shengxin, the troublesome master, with an unfriendly look.

I was almost roaring in my heart: I am not the dog emperor in the storybooks who is heartless and only knows how to maintain the dignity of the royal family!

I am a wise ruler!

I want to be an emperor who will be unrivaled throughout the ages.

How can you do such a thing that would be despised by others?

[The emperor's expression is so majestic and scary. He won't really...]

Fearing that his reputation would be ruined by Ye Xingxin, the Emperor Jingming quickly spoke:

"Since you both wish to divorce, I will issue an order later to grant your wishes."

"Jun Qin Cheng." Emperor Jingming looked at him again.

"In the Battle of Huaihe River, you defeated 30,000 enemy troops with only 3,000 soldiers and fought to the death. After your death, you were awarded the title of General Anding. Now that you have returned, are you willing to take over the position and protect the vast land of Zhou Kingdom?"

Qin Chengjun knelt down and said, "I am willing."

Emperor Jingming was satisfied, and then asked again for his sister's sake: "Did you marry and have children in the past ten years since you retired?"

"Your humble servant has never done that. Your humble servant can only accommodate in your heart..." Qin Chengjun blushed.

In front of everyone, especially the princess, it was hard to say such sweet words.

Emperor Jingming understood and smiled, "Since that has not happened, I will not interfere in your marriage with Fukang in the future."

The two men understood what he meant, their faces lit up, and they kowtowed to express their gratitude.

Ye Xingxin was moved: [System, the emperor is really a good and sensible emperor. ]

[It is much better than the salted fish eagle sauce who can only shoot randomly on the battlefield. 】

The system was also moved: [Sure enough, the storybook is just a storybook, and it will be seriously out of touch with reality. ]

Emperor Jingming was very satisfied with the attitude of everyone admitting their mistakes, but -

System/Emperor Jingming: [What does this have to do with salted fish eagle sauce? ]

Ye Xingxin did not answer.

She looked around at the ball of paper with words written on it that suddenly rolled to her feet and looked around.

[Who is littering in such a serious occasion? ]

[How uncultured! ]

An uneducated adult: ...

Amid the vague attention of the crowd, Ye Shengxin picked up the paper ball and opened it.

【Let me see what is written here. 】

[In the third year of Jingming, a scholar named Wen Huai flew to Beijing to take the imperial examination. Whenever he met a seriously ill beggar on the road, he would spend money to treat him. Along the way, he saved hundreds of lives.]

[In the fourth year of Jingming, Wen Huaifei was appointed as the magistrate of Dafeng County as the top scholar. During his three-year term, he built bridges and roads for the local people, established schools and clinics, and redressed grievances for the people, earning the name of a just judge.]

[In the eighth year of Jingming, Wen Huaifei took office as the magistrate of Wanshan County. The following year, a plague broke out in Wanshan County. Wen Huaifei took the initiative to close the county gates and worked with local doctors to treat the people. Most of the people were saved.]

In the 12th year of Jingming, Wen Huaifei was appointed as the prefect of Beiyin. The area suffered from drought for consecutive years. Prefect Wen reported to the court and raised money to build a river to fight the drought. Five years later, the river was completed, the drought was alleviated, and the people were happy. However, because of the money used to subsidize the construction of the river, Prefect Wen's family became extremely poor. 】

[In the winter of the eighteenth year of Jingming, Wen Zhifu took office as the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. The following year, he was ordered by the emperor to transport money and grain to the border. One month after he set out on the journey, news came back that Minister Wen had colluded with the enemy and betrayed the country, and all the money and grain were sent to the enemy camp.]

[In the spring of the 19th year of Jingming, Wen Shilang assassinated two enemy generals and military advisors and died on the same day, leaving only the four characters "Serve the country with loyalty" tattooed on his chest to be praised by the whole army.]

【Minister Wen was an upright official with the world in his heart, but he was framed by a traitor. Who was the traitor? Who was the traitor!】

[Maybe he would go to the tomb of Minister Wen and kowtow and confess his guilt?]

[Maybe he deserved the punishment for his crime, being tortured by having his bones scraped and his flesh removed every day?]

After reading it, Ye Shengxin was so angry that he couldn't help himself.

Especially the four words "Serve the country with loyalty and dedication" deeply hurt her eyes.

[System, if the story on paper is true, the traitor who killed Minister Wen deserves to die a miserable death! ]

Ye Xingxin was trembling all over.

When I thought of the historical stories about Yue Fei, my eyes turned red with hatred.

[This traitor framed loyal officials in this way. What is the difference between him and Qin Hui and his ilk? ]

[For such a despicable act, one should be like him, kneeling in front of Minister Wen's tomb every day to repent and atone for his sins. ]

The system's eyes also turned red.

[Host, just letting him kneel down to atone for his sins is too easy for him. Doesn't the paper say that he will have to endure the pain of having his bones scraped and his flesh removed every day?]

Ye Xingxin: [Yes, let him suffer the pain of scraping his bones and removing his flesh. It would be best if we could start now.]

After Ye Xingxin finished speaking, all the ministers widened their eyes and looked at each other.

I just want to know who sent the note to Ye Shengxin?

Then it suddenly occurred to me, could the operation be guided in this way?

Also, who is the treacherous person who harmed Lord Wen?

Could it be in them?

From the moment he heard Wen Huaifei's name, Emperor Jingming's eyes were filled with sorrow.

The murderer of Wen Aiqing has not been found yet. Whenever he thinks of him, he feels ashamed.

At this moment, hatred surged in his heart, and he also wanted to know who had harmed his beloved minister whom he was about to entrust with an important task.

But after half a day, no one in the field showed any change in expression.

The official who wrote the note frowned deeply.

Is this person not among the officials present today?

Everyone had the same idea.

Only Wen Xinhou lowered his head, pursed his lips tightly, and endured the layers of pain coming from inside his body.

The pain was like a long knife cutting into the body, not deep and not very painful.

He practiced martial arts for many years, so the pain gradually became bearable over time, so there was no change on his face.

As everyone continued the birthday party arranged by Princess Fukang, Marquis Wenxin felt some relief from the pain.

He took the wine jug handed to him by his colleague and drank it all in one gulp while chatting and laughing.

The redness of his face due to alcohol effectively concealed the paleness of his face due to pain.

Sweat rolled down Wen Xinhou's forehead, but his colleagues didn't notice anything wrong and instead joked:

"My Lord, you can't hold your liquor?"

Marquis Wenxin caught a glimpse of Emperor Jingming, who was about to leave the princess's mansion without finding the treacherous villain.

Nodding, "Yes, I am not able to handle the alcohol today."

He also praised, "This wine is really a timely and good wine, very intoxicating!"

"Then my Lord, please take it easy and don't get drunk."

"I can't guarantee that."

A moment later, Marquis Wenxin and everyone else knelt in front of the princess's mansion to see Emperor Jingming off.

There was undisguised sarcasm in his drooped eyelids.

So what if Ye Shengxin knew the news?

Do you think this useless jinx can help Wen Huaifei find the person who framed him?

He curled his lips into a cold smile.

I am standing right in front of you, can you find me?

Can it?

As long as I go back home and take medicine to block the pain, this kind of pain will not have any effect on me now!

He laughed wildly in his heart.

Just as he was laughing, he found that he couldn't get up!

The leg bones seemed to be glued to the ground and could not move at all.

This made him extremely conspicuous among all the people who stood up after kneeling.

At the same time, the pain like a knife cutting through his body was like a barrier, making it increasingly unbearable for him.

Marquis Wenxin felt bad.

Especially when everyone's eyes were all on him, he felt even more annoyed.

But he was trying hard not to reveal any flaws on his face.

He pretended to be drunk and half-collapsed on the ground.

"Wine, I can still drink, bring me some wine!"

"This is really good wine. Bring me more... bring me a hundred bottles! I will definitely reward you greatly!"
