Chapter 58 Rewards for Lin Jihan

The emperor slapped the handle of the dragon chair fiercely angrily, "Prince Regent!"

This big movement finally brought back Shen Mengqi who was still immersed in a daze.

Seeing that the emperor was about to have a fit, Shen Mengqi hurriedly dissuaded her: "Your Majesty, it is really not appropriate for too many people to know about this matter now, let the regent report to you alone after the next court."

"Xiao Mengqi, I am complaining for you! He and that beloved child are not clear, when the time comes."

"emperor!"

Shen Mengqi really can't hear the words "children" and "beloved" now, she couldn't help interrupting the emperor's words, her voice was rare and naive: "The regent is dedicated to the country, and all his advice comes from the bottom of his heart, just listen to him this time." .”

How could the emperor bear Shen Mengqi's coquettishness and persuasion, so he had no choice but to surrender: "All right, all right, let the regent come down to talk to me alone!"

After finishing speaking, he gave Lin Jihan a stare unwillingly, and scolded Lin Jihan ten thousand times in his heart.I don't know what ecstasy soup Lin Jihan gave his child, telling her to roll towards him like a cabbage with legs, and to speak for him like crazy.

Back then, when the Queen Mother was punishing her, Xiao Mengqi didn't say anything nice about her. Thinking of this, the Emperor felt even worse.

At this time, Dali Temple Minister stood up unwillingly and asked: "Your Majesty, what about the assassination of the former Minister of the Ministry of Officials?"

As soon as Dali Temple Minister brought up the case again, the emperor yelled at Dali Temple Secretary as if he had swallowed gunpowder.

As if afraid that Shen Mengqi would not be able to resist jumping out to speak for Lin Jihan, the emperor said in a low voice: "What can I do, what else can I do? Of course the case will not be closed."

Cui Zhunshan, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, jumped out and said, "But."

He was blocked by the emperor before he finished speaking, "But what? Could it be that you still want to arrest the regent to Dali Temple and put him in prison before giving up?"

The Minister of Dali Temple and the Shaoqing of Dali Temple knelt down one after another and said, "I dare not!"

"I just want to ask, will the case continue to be handled by the Prince Regent?"

Now that Lin Jihan has been involved in the case, it is naturally impossible to let him take charge of it again, and neither Shen Mengqi nor Mu Qiancheng can touch this case again, otherwise they will definitely be linked to injustice and shady scenes.

The emperor knocked on the armrest of the dragon chair, and then said: "The regent will leave this case alone for the time being. But this case really needs a person in charge to take care of it. Which one of you loves wants to take care of it?"

Who cares about such a hot potato!

After hearing what the emperor said, they all lowered their heads, for fear of being noticed by the emperor accidentally.

After all, the case involved the Prince Regent, the high officials didn't want to handle it, and the small ones couldn't.

The court fell silent for a moment.

The emperor couldn't help frowning and said: "Aren't you able to talk one by one just now? Now that I have given you a chance to show off, why are you still silent?"

The heads of the courtiers instantly dropped even lower.

The emperor called by name and said: "Xiao Mengqi, can you tell me who is better to take over this case from the regent?"

After looking around, Shen Mengqi said: "Reporting to the emperor, I feel that it is safer for the Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment to take charge."

As soon as Shen Mengqi's proposal came out, the officials of Dali Temple immediately became unhappy.

In the capital, who doesn't know that Dali Temple and the Ministry of Punishment are the most hostile.With Shen Mengqi's suggestion, it was not obvious that she was venting her anger on Lin Jihan's behalf.

The emperor looked at Shen Mengqi and said, "What's the reason?"

"There are three points. First, Dali Temple is considered to be part of the Ministry of Punishment, and it is only natural for the Ministry of Punishment to manage Dali Temple."

"Secondly, I remember that Shang Shu of the Ministry of Punishment was originally in charge of the criminal law and crimes of our Tianyuan Kingdom. He knows how to find the real culprit."

"Third, everyone knows the character of Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice, and there will never be any partiality. In this way, everyone can rest assured."

The emperor nodded in agreement, but at this moment Dali Siqing said: "Your Majesty, it's not appropriate to do this."

"Where is it inappropriate?"

"The daughter of the Ministry of Justice's daughter is the regent's liaison. Although the Minister of the Ministry of Justice is stern and selfless, who can guarantee that he will be fair when it comes to the issue of children?"

The Secretary of the Ministry of Justice came out with a dark face, looked at Dali Siqing and said, "Dali Siqing doesn't have ears? I already severed the father-daughter relationship with that rebellious girl when she insisted on becoming the regent's concubine. "

With that said, the Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment paid homage to the emperor again: "Your Majesty, if I accept this case, I will deal with it impartially and enforce the law. Please rest assured, Your Majesty."

The emperor nodded and said: "Wang Qing is always at ease in doing things, so you will be responsible for this matter."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, I will live up to my Majesty's trust!"

After the Minister of the Ministry of Justice finished his salute, he looked coldly at Dali Siqing and Cui Zhunshan who had turned pale, and said silently: "We will have a long and prosperous future."

In an instant, the faces of Dali Siqing and Cui Zhunshan became even uglier.This time they lost their wives and lost their soldiers. They were really depressed.

After leaving the court, Lin Jihan was picked up by the eunuch Wang Peng. Before leaving, Lin Jihan knocked on Shen Mengqi's small forehead, and left a sentence in her ear, "Don't worry, everything is up to me."

As soon as Lin Jihan left, Mu Qiancheng came up to him in an instant. He looked at Shen Mengqi with sparkling eyes and said, "Your Highness, do you know who is the beloved child that the prince mentioned above?"

The expression of the gossip was exactly the same as that of Ye Wei next to Lin Jihan. It really interpreted that sentence, like attracts like.

Shen Mengqi ignored Mu Qiancheng, turned around and left.Only Mu Qiancheng, who was full of curiosity, was still squatting outside the palace, waiting bitterly for Lin Jihan to come out.

At night, Lin Jihan came back from the palace after the moon had already slanted to the west.

After Lin Jihan came back, he went directly to Nanyuan. Seeing that Shen Mengqi was sleeping soundly, he didn't turn on the light, but took off his coat in the dark, and lay down gently beside Shen Mengqi.

As soon as he closed his eyes, he felt a pair of small hands approaching him.Lin Jihan skillfully grabbed those hands, and pulled the owner into his arms.

"why are not you sleeping?"

"Wait for you."

These two simple words brought great satisfaction to Lin Jihan. He rubbed Shen Mengqi's head and said, "Don't worry, in the eyes of the emperor and the queen mother, you are still a good boy."

Shen Mengqi asked, "Why have you been there for so long?"

"Because, the queen mother and the emperor have been asking who the king's beloved child is."

Thinking of what Lin Jihan said in front of Manchao Wenwu, Shen Mengqi's face turned red into a burning cloud in an instant.

This time Lin Jihan didn't tease her anymore, but put his arms around her and said, "Okay, go to sleep."

Suddenly, Lin Jihan felt something soft and wet stuck to the side of his face, it was Shen Mengqi's red lips.

"award."

After stealing the kiss, Shen Mengqi wanted to run away, but Lin Jihan dragged her back and put her under her body.

"Do you know what you're doing?"

Shen Mengqi paused, Lin Jihan thought she was going to push him away, but Shen Mengqi hugged his waist the next second.

Lin Jihan uncontrollably lowered his head to find Shen Mengqi's lips, but Shen Mengqi resisted him.

"Don't want to?"

"Let's move back to Juxing Pavilion tomorrow, the one in Nanyuan is too hard, I can't sleep well."

Looking at Shen Mengqi who buried her head in her arms, Lin Jihan smiled softly: "Okay."
