Shen Mingze didn't seem to notice the strange gazes of the people around him, he was at ease as usual, with a calm expression: "I have something to report, please move your Majesty."

The emperor really wanted to ask Shen Mingze alone what was going on in his heart.

So he nodded, and the servant beside him helped him to walk outside.

There is a small compartment at the side and rear of the main hall.

The emperor of the Qing Dynasty had to appear at the end every time he went to court, and sometimes he came early and would rest in the cubicle.

While following the emperor to the cubicle, Shen Mingze comforted the system in his mind: [It's okay, this degree of plot deviation will not affect the mission. ]

Although the system was angry that he applied for retirement without telling him, it never questioned his strength.

They have gone through hundreds of small worlds together, and completed many missions that were rumored to be impossible in the Fast Travel Department.

However, it is impossible for the system to speak properly: [Heh.Don't know the butterfly effect?Have you never heard of the embankment of a thousand miles collapsing in an ant's nest, losing everything with one careless move, moving the whole body with one move, and making a wrong step? ]

Shen Mingze said in a good voice: [You forgot, we have done experiments, as long as the final ending is the same as in the plot, the completion rate will be at least 60% qualified. ]

The system stopped talking, and waited for Shen Mingze to step into the cubicle before he said viciously: [You better do it! ]

Shen Mingze was helpless.

His little one is really a very complicated existence.

——It is the one that does not want him to complete the task and retire smoothly, and it is the one that helps him to complete the task as best as possible at the beginning of the task.

The emperor was supported to sit down, and looked at Shen Mingze probingly: "Shen Aiqing, what do you want to tell me?"

Shen Mingze bowed, brewed up his emotions a little, and said flatteringly: "I did tamper with the building materials of Bieyuan, but I really feel sorry for Your Majesty!"

"Oh?" The emperor became interested.

The reason he favors Shen Mingze is because this person's actions are always in line with his wishes.

Shen Mingze continued: "A few months ago, Your Majesty wanted to build a royal manor at the foot of Lanshan Mountain outside the city. I wonder if Your Majesty still remembers it?"

The emperor gritted his teeth and said bitterly, "Of course I remember."

He is a majestic son of heaven, the lord of the world, but he just wants to build a manor, but those people are unwilling to do so, saying that the treasury is empty, and admonishing him with death, how unreasonable it is!

If it wasn't because that person was left by his father, and he told him to treat him kindly in front of the court civil and military...

Shen Mingze smiled slightly: "The Royal Manor covers an area of ​​290 hectares, 350 mu, what a huge scale. But the current Bieyuan is only [-] hectares in size, which is less than one-tenth of the manor. Your Majesty, I am sorry for you! "

Ever since the emperor proposed to ask for the Royal Manor, all he had received were negative remarks, but Shen Mingze's remark had really penetrated into his bones.

As expected of his Shen Aiqing!

The emperor had tears in his eyes, didn't he, he also felt wronged.

Shen Mingze waited for a while, but he didn't wait for the emperor's praise, so he could only accept it by himself: "If you can't give what you ask, it means that your minister is incompetent! Therefore..."

He sighed: "I originally wanted to wait for the manor to be completed and present it to His Majesty as a congratulatory gift, but I am ashamed in my pocket, so I am short of 20 taels of silver. I..."

His Majesty was very moved, he hurriedly stood up from the chair, helped up Shen Mingze who was still leaning over, "Ai Qing, why didn't you tell me?"

Shen Mingze was also moved by this kind of emotion between the monarch and his ministers, and said excitedly: "I don't want to disturb Your Majesty, Your Majesty is subject to Wen... Ah, I'm a slip of the tongue!"

Shen Mingze made a gesture to kneel, but of course he failed, the emperor stopped him.

Shen Mingze stood up straight as a matter of course.

The emperor patted him on the shoulder: "There is nothing I can't say, I am indeed in a difficult situation, a fish in a cage, I can't help myself."

The emperor sighed, and continued cordially: "Just now in the hall, why did you admit it? It would be great to find a scapegoat. You are so pure and kind, I am very worried."

As far as the word "pure kindness" is concerned, if 1 people hear it, 1 people will object.

There seemed to be tears in Shen Mingze's eyes: "I know that your Majesty treats me well, but the crown prince is in charge of this case. Your Highness is smart, so how can I avoid it."

There was a glint of darkness in the emperor's eyes.

Shen Mingze smiled wryly: "The prince's reputation was not obvious in the past, but now it seems that he is quite popular, even the Duke of the State admires him quite a lot."

Seeing the fear and murderous intent in the emperor's eyes gradually grew stronger, Shen Mingchu finally stopped talking in satisfaction.

The system was amazed: [Not bad, Gou Ze, you really look like a villain. ]

It also thought that Shen Mingze was planning to abandon the dark and turn to the bright.

[But I still don't get it, why are you doing this? ]

Shen Mingze explained: [In the original plot, the prince was chasing after him, but the original owner refused to admit it. In the end, the emperor handed over the matter to Jin Wuwei.Yi Huai's actions were not clean enough, and his elder brother Yi Jiang took the blame for him and was ordered to die by the emperor. ]

When Yi Huai received the news, he vomited a big mouthful of blood on the spot, and suffered a serious illness, and his health has never been better since then.

Soon after the dust settled in the plot, he fell ill and died in the end.

Qi Heng, who is already the Ninth Five-Year Lord and the Son of Destiny, failed to save his life.

According to the plot, this is the thing Yi Huai regrets most in his life.

He disregarded life and death, and relied on his pride, thinking that what he had done was a heroic feat, fulfilling the brotherhood with his friends.

In order to save his friend, he hooked up with his elder brother.

But in the end it still failed.

—He didn't save anyone.

This was a turning point in Yi Huai's life. Since then, every time he made a strategy, he would repeat it three times, and prepare at least eight plans for each strategy.

It is this kind of caution that enables him to grow step by step into a think-tank who can count on everything.

Shen Mingze recalled the plot, and sighed: [This kind of growth is too cruel. ]

The system thought for a while, and after realizing it, it flew into a rage: [You are crazy, why are you doing it for a paper man?You are the villain!Do you not know the consequences of deviating from others? ]

Shen Mingze: [... You just praised my villain for doing a good job. ]

The system was at a loss for words, it suddenly noticed that Shen Mingze's mood was not peaceful, and comforted him awkwardly: [Host, don't be too substituting, these plot worlds are not considered a real big world until all the plots are finished, don't take it too seriously. The people here also take it seriously. ]

It solemnly reminds: [Although you already know it, I must emphasize again that the plot world also has its own consciousness of the Dao of Heaven. If you are found to deviate from the human setting, the Dao of Heaven will kill you in order to successfully complete the plot and mature. ! ]

The system bared its teeth to frighten him: [Even if I can remove your consciousness from this world in time, you will be severely injured!understand?It will be painful, debilitating, and excruciatingly uncomfortable!It's not easy! ]

Shen Mingze chuckled: [I know, thank you, Xiaoyi. ]

System 001, who is soft but not hard, covered his flushed face (?), and was too shy to speak.

Shen Mingze followed the emperor back to the court hall, and the whispering courtiers fell silent for an instant.

The emperor didn't seem to see the four ministers who were still kneeling on the ground, so he naturally announced: "It's all right, let's retire."

The servant elongated his tone: "t——"

"His Majesty!"

A word stuck in his throat, almost choking.

The servant stepped aside, trembling, not daring to speak.

The emperor asked threateningly: "What else?"

"Your Majesty, since Shen Mingze has pleaded guilty, please punish him according to the law!" The four bowed their heads at the same time.

The prince looked at Shen Mingze who was standing aside and bowed his head in silence, with deep eyes.

No wonder he confessed his guilt so simply, it turned out that he was sure that the emperor would not touch him.

"Then punish the Prime Minister to contemplate behind closed doors for three days." The emperor's expression was filled with impatience of "enough, satisfied".

that's all?Not even letting him pay back?

Just as the prince was about to speak to stop him, the old man who had been sitting all of a sudden got up and knelt down before him.

"Your Majesty, Shen Mingze's corruption and perverting the law is a minor matter, but his disobedience is a major matter. If His Majesty does not punish him severely, he may not be able to calm people's hearts."

Wen Xuzhi, the elder of the three dynasties, the first emperor personally made him a grand master, bestowed the throne on him, allowed him not to kneel in court, and set up a seat for him.

Until now, his seat has not been removed.

In addition to his political status, he himself is also a recognized model of literati, with peaches and plums all over the world.

Even if the emperor didn't want to, he had to listen to what he said.

In addition, these words really hit the emperor's weakness.

No matter how much he trusted Shen Mingze, he could not tolerate "resisting orders and not obeying orders".

He would not allow anything to happen that would infringe on his prestige.

"Shen Mingze" is also considered half of Wen Xuzhi's student, all the courtiers squinted at Shen Mingze, seeing that he still didn't care, they couldn't help scolding him "he deserves it" from the bottom of their hearts.

Don't they deserve it if they betray their relatives?

The emperor pondered for a moment: "The grand master is right, so I will give you twenty court sticks."

"Father, my son thinks..." It's so easy to mix things like court sticks with water.The people below are the best at guessing what they want, Shen Mingze might not even suffer minor injuries with these twenty sticks!

After finally catching Shen Mingze's mistake, how could he let it go so easily?

Before the prince finished speaking, he was interrupted by the emperor, "Prince, don't push yourself too hard."

The emperor had a deep meaning: "Although the prime minister is wrong, it is my humerus. I regard the prime minister as a confidant, and the prince should treat him as a teacher. If you have nothing to do on weekdays, ask the prime minister for advice on how to be a minister and a son."

The prince froze.What the emperor said, he almost pointed at him and scolded him for being disloyal and unfilial!

Moreover, he is about the same age as Shen Mingze, but now he is just a generation shorter.

No matter how aggrieved, he still respectfully answered "Yes".

Yi Huai's rank is low, and he can only stand at the back when going to court.

He raised his head and silently stared at the figure in front of him.

Shen Mingze's temperament is very outstanding, which reminds him of a green bamboo growing from the joints in the cracks in the mountains and forests.

However, that's all for nothing.

Yi Huai pondered.

The emperor's attitude seemed to be much warmer. What did he say to the emperor?

And, no one knows the real culprit of this matter better than himself. It was obviously not him, so why did he plead guilty?

Shen Mingze keenly noticed that someone was staring at him, and this gaze lasted for a long time.

He turned his head and met Yi Huai's gaze.

Looking at each other, Shen Mingze habitually showed a gentle smile, and when he sensed something was wrong, he hurriedly held back, don't look away from him.

Yi Huai saw the man turned his head and looked at him with a strange look on his face.

He frowned, was he...smiling at him?
