On the day of the granted marriage, the daughter of a general wept and was reborn!

"Don't worry, Miss Shen. The evidence I obtained is all legitimate."

Bai Lang continued.

Looking at the memorial in his hand, Ji Xunchuan snorted coldly.

Snapped!

Ji Xunchuan suddenly closed the letter and threw it down without further explanation: "Shen Wantang went here on my orders. I gave her the right to act at her own discretion. The letter is full of nonsense!"

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone in the court knelt down.

Bai Lang even leaned forward, still neither servile nor arrogant, and said: "Your Majesty, it is true that I have the power to act at my convenience, but Miss Shen is using the power you have granted her to do something shameful!"

"The servant of Mo County is my witness!"

Mo County Yamen runner?

Shen Wantang seemed to be thinking about something, raised his eyebrows and looked at Bai Lang beside him.

There is no need to think too much, this person is naturally a disciple of the Prime Minister. I really didn't expect that the Prime Minister's hand would reach out to Mo County.

Ji Xunchuan gave a look to his father-in-law beside him.

The father-in-law understood immediately: "Send the witness!"

The yamen runner came forward tremblingly. As soon as he got to the front, his legs went weak and he knelt down in the hall, saying: "Your humble servant, your humble servant pays respect to Your Majesty..."

"I ask you, has Shen Wantang ever oppressed the people?"

Ji Xunchuan asked in a cold voice, his voice echoing in the hall.

Shen Wantang glanced at him - this person looked unfamiliar. After thinking carefully, he realized that he must have not seen him when he returned to Mo County.

"Yes, yes..." the man spoke slowly.

"When Shen Wantang passed through Mo County, he asked the county magistrate for three thousand taels of silver. The county government didn't have that much silver. The people couldn't bear to see the county magistrate sad, so they took out all the money in their homes and only then did they collect the three thousand taels."

The man spoke it as if he were reciting poetry.

Shen Wantang couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Three thousand taels? Sir, you really dare to say that. Do you know how much money the wealthy families in Beijing have every month?"

"Your Majesty, allow me to speak boldly. In the capital, the money flowing through the households of the officials is far more than three thousand taels. I am afraid that I am crazy to embarrass the people for the sake of three thousand taels."

Shen Wantang continued.

Then, she turned around and said in a neither humble nor arrogant manner: "Your Majesty, this trip was your Majesty's intention. Although I may not say that I am benefiting the people, I am truly worthy of the people."

"Your Majesty, please tell me clearly!"

As soon as Shen Wantang finished speaking, Ji Xunchuan was about to say something.

But another voice came from among the court officials: "Your Majesty!"

"Your humble servant, the Minister of War, reported Miss Shen for hiding the rebels but not executing them!"

Another person came forward slowly, his eyes determined.

After he finished speaking, Shen Wantang's eyes tightened - how did he know?

Could it be...the new county magistrate, Li Junjie?

Shen Wantang couldn't help but clench his fists.

"Your Majesty!" Shen Wantang was about to say something, but the man continued:

"Your Majesty, this matter is not only Shen Wantang's fault, but also Cen Xiao's fault." The Minister of War continued.

If there was still room for maneuver in what happened just now, it is really hard to defend myself now.

Ji Xunchuan's eyes darkened, the trust in his eyes had completely disappeared, replaced by suspicion.

The matter of the uprising army is of no trivial importance. If it cannot be completely eradicated and is allowed to grow stronger, it may overthrow the imperial power in the future.

This is also the reason why Ji Xunchuan sent troops to attack.

Now someone told him that the rebels were not eradicated, but some of them quietly hid themselves...

"Your Majesty, please listen to my explanation." Shen Wantang stood up and continued.

"Miss Shen, what are you trying to argue about? How is there any excuse for the crime of deceiving the emperor?" The prime minister, who had been silent for a long time, spoke softly with a hint of sarcasm in his voice.

"People have a mouth to argue. Could it be that I will kneel in the palace today and allow unfounded charges to be pinned on me, with my eyes wide open and nothing to say to defend myself?"

Shen Wantang spoke in a firm voice without any fear.

She bowed and said, "Your Majesty, someone must have concealed this matter. General Cen and I broke through the gate of the mountain city, captured all the rebels, and wiped them out. It is all recorded. What I said is true!"

Ji Xunchuan remained silent, looking at the court officials who were speechless beside him.

"Sir, you said that we hid the rebels. Did you see it with your own eyes?"

After being silent for a long time, Cen Xiao spoke softly.

"I have been in the capital the whole time and did not see it with my own eyes." The man responded confidently and coldly.

Hearing this, Cen Xiao sneered: "If you haven't seen it with your own eyes, why are you so sure? It seems that this gentleman really has some research on weapons."

After the words fell, everyone was puzzled, and the Minister of War was even more puzzled. He turned around and asked, "What do you mean?"

"You've been treated as a knife, how can that not be considered knowledge of weapons? But in my opinion, your weapon is a dagger, which can hurt people but cannot kill them. Now you've run into someone as fat and strong as me, so it's just a scratch on my skin, which really isn't a big deal."

As soon as he finished speaking, Cen Xiao laughed twice.

The murmurs of the crowd continued, and many of them were laughing secretly.

"You!" The Assistant Minister of War frowned and wanted to say something, but as he was in the court, he couldn't say anything out of line.

"Silence!" the father-in-law spoke again.

"When the rebels were executed, the newly appointed county magistrate of Shancheng was also present. Whether it is true or not, we will know it by asking." Shen Wantang continued.

"Now the magistrate of Shancheng County is thousands of miles away. Do you want to recall him back to the capital?" The assistant minister of the Ministry of War snorted coldly, but was unwilling to give up, and glanced at Cen Xiao sideways.

The court fell into silence again.

"Your Majesty." Suddenly, a clear voice sounded and everyone looked up.

Xia Huai'en came forward slowly and said, "Your Majesty, I sorted out the memorials submitted by various regions last night, and just remembered that the two adults mentioned the matters of Mo County and Shancheng."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Prime Minister, who was watching the show from the side, was stunned.

"I was finishing up a little late last night, and I was a little distracted just now. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

After he finished speaking, Xia Huai'en slowly knelt down.

"Present the memorial." Ji Xunchuan no longer had the mind to deal with other things. He only cared about whether the matter of the uprising was true.

Xia Huai'en held the letter high up, and his father-in-law came forward and took it away.

"Shancheng County Magistrate Li Junjie reported that everything in Shancheng has now returned to normal, thanks to Miss Shen's previous management. The rebels have been completely wiped out."

"The magistrate of Mo County reported that Miss Shen had helped to investigate old cases and saved many people. The people praised her repeatedly. The ladies in the city sewed a prayer quilt for her and sent it to the Ministry of Personnel yesterday."

Xia Huai'en spoke neither hurriedly nor slowly, but each word was sonorous.

After reading what was written in the memorial, Ji Xunchuan finally felt relieved.

However, the two people who were about to participate in the performance were a little panicked.

"impossible……"
