The daughter of a general is reborn to save the whole family of the marquis

Xie Lin, wearing a dark blue brocade robe, walked into the Zichen Hall. Although he was thin, he had a tall and straight figure. He walked straight to the center of the hall and knelt down to salute.

Every time the emperor saw him, he felt a strange emotion in his heart, which made him soften his tone unconsciously: "Thank you, sir, for asking to see you at this time. What is the matter?"

Xie Lin said: "I heard about the matter between Song Ju and Sang Nong, so I came to ask to see the emperor."

The emperor said "Oh?" and said, "What do you think, sir?"

Runxue and Dongfang Shuo's eyes were fixed on Xie Lin.

They knew very well that Xie Lin was now a favorite of the emperor, and whenever the emperor was unsure about something, he would always ask Xie Lin for his opinion.

Now that Xie Lin wants to get involved in Songju Sangnong's affairs, Dongfang Shuo and his wife can't help but feel nervous.

Unexpectedly, Xie Lin said: "Song Ju's real identity is Zhou Mochi, the fifth prince of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and Sang Nong is his cousin from his uncle's family. The two of them came to Daqi together and infiltrated the Daqi officialdom. These two are very likely to be spies and should not be let go easily!"

Dongfang Shuo and Runxue were both stunned and looked at each other, trying to determine from each other's expressions whether they had heard wrongly.

Even the Prime Minister couldn't help but look at Xie Lin a little more. Was he plotting something?

Chu Heyi was surprised, surprised, his face full of surprise.

Xie Lin continued, "Your Majesty, just executing these two is too easy for them, and it won't deter others. I beg Your Majesty to re-sentence them, not only to sentence them to death, but also to execute them in a busy city! This will deter the Northern Zhou royal family, and secondly, it will deter the Xirong in the west and the Nanqi in the south, so that no one will dare to send spies to our Daqi anymore!"

He added: "Besides, if someone really colluded with the Northern Zhou, the deterrent effect of slow execution would be much more effective than simply beheading!"

Runxue frowned slightly, feeling that something was not right.

But Chu Heyi spoke, interrupting her thoughts.

"Master Xie looks so gentle and clean, but I never thought he could be so cruel and ruthless when doing things! I misjudged Master Xie in the past!"

Xie Lin said calmly: "Since you are an official of Daqi, you should consider Daqi in everything. Miss Heyi is the Princess of Cheng'an County appointed by the Emperor, so it should be the same."

The sarcasm in Chu Heyi's eyes was so strong that it almost overflowed. In the eyes of Dongfang Shuo and his wife, they felt that if it wasn't in the Purple Palace and in front of the emperor, Chu Heyi would probably go crazy and beat people.

Chu Heyi: "Can Song Ju and Sang Nong's identities completely erase what they did in the past? Song Ju has been in the military camp for more than half a year. How many war horses has he trained for Daqi? Have you ever thought about how much credit he has given to Daqi?

"Even if you can't see Song Ju's contribution, what about Sang Nong? He dug canals for Daqixiu and saved tens of thousands of people in Shengjing City. His contribution is obvious to all. Why do you want to torture him to death now that summer is about to pass and there is no flood and he is no longer needed?"

Chu Heyi's eyes were red and his voice was hoarse.

Xie Lin: "How can the Princess of Cheng'an be sure that they came to Daqi to do these things, not to gain the trust of the emperor? To gain the trust of the people? Once they gain the great trust of the people of Daqi, their spy goal will be achieved.

"In the future, if the Northern Zhou army attacks the city and they open the city gates to welcome them, who will bear the consequences? Will the Cheng'an County Lord bear the consequences?"

Xie Lin bowed to the platform again and said, "Your Majesty, I still say what I said just now. I beg you to re-sentence them and execute Song Ju and Sang Nong by slow slicing!"

The Prime Minister immediately agreed: "Your Majesty, what Lord Xie said makes sense! For the sake of Daqi, they must be tortured to death, and other countries will no longer dare to send spies to our Daqi in the future!"

Others also came forward to request!

Chu Heyi: "Your Majesty, even if you want to kill them, just chop off their heads. Considering what they have done for Daqi, please don't torture them to death! I beg you, Your Majesty!"

Prime Minister: "Your Majesty, the Princess of Cheng'an is just too soft-hearted. If we listen to her, it will be like what Lord Xie said, and we will not be able to intimidate the Northern Zhou! What's the point of just killing them?"

The emperor waved his hand and said, "I think what Lord Xie is asking is reasonable. I will follow Lord Xie's request, retrial Song Ju and Sang Nong, re-charge them, and execute them by slow slicing!"

Xie Lin: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

The prime minister and the officials behind him immediately said in unison: "Your Majesty is wise!"

Chu Heyi fell to the ground, his eyes empty.

Runxue had been observing her and Xie Lin's expressions. She originally felt that something was wrong, but now seeing Chu Heyi like this, she couldn't help but ask if she was thinking too much.

Although her doubts were largely eliminated, she still felt something was wrong, but she couldn't really tell what was wrong.

After all, the emperor had agreed to re-examine the case, re-convict Song Ju and Sang Nong, and execute them by cutting them into pieces or slow slicing.

Maybe it was because Xie Lin did not stand on the same side as Chu Heyi and sang a different tune from Chu Heyi, which made her feel something was wrong.

Song Ju and Sang Nong were people from the Northern Zhou Dynasty. They sneaked into Da Qi and hid their identities. Their execution was a foregone conclusion. The only difference was whether they were killed with one knife or cut into pieces by thousands of knives.

Thinking of this, Runxue withdrew her gaze and followed Dongfang Shuo away.

Later she heard that after leaving the Zichen Palace, Chu Heyi had a fight with Xie Lin.

Of course, it was Chu Heyi who attacked Xie Lin unilaterally. Xie Lin stood there and let her pounce on him and bite his shoulder.

Then he left coldly without saying a word to Chu Heyi, while Chu Heyi, with red eyes, glared at his departing back with hatred, as if the deaths of Song Ju, Sang Nong and others were blamed on Xie Lin.

Runxue felt refreshed.

So is Dongfang Shuo.

There is a feeling of a strong air in the chest, which is exhaled slowly.

Previously, they had been suppressed by Chu Heyi and had difficulty venting their anger. Now they finally saw Chu Heyi suffer a defeat.

After venting his anger, Runxue felt that it was not enough. Chu Heyi was on good terms with Song Ju and others. It was Chu Heyi's credit that these two people were able to enter the officialdom of Daqi. He should take this opportunity to implicate Chu Heyi and eliminate Chu Heyi's forces.

In the past, she thought that Chu Heyi was easy to deal with because he grew up in the countryside, had never been to school or received any education, and was a typical ancient person.

But now she doesn't think so anymore. Chu Heyi is like an indestructible cockroach. He has to swing his shoe harder and harder each time to kill her completely.

Runxue told Dongfang Shuo his idea.

"Now that you have military merit, you can have a say in front of the emperor. This time Song Ju and Sang Nong will die, but Chu Heyi is on good terms with them. It was Chu Heyi who brought them into the Daqi officialdom. She can be spared the death penalty, but she cannot escape the punishment of life. It is also good for her to lose the title of Cheng'an County Master."

Dongfang Shuo agreed: "Okay, I'll go tell my father right away!"
