Chapter 53 Emperor Yongqing Questions Shen Sitang
As soon as Shen Sitang arrived at the gate of the palace, he ran into Mr. Xiang'an who was going to the inspector's office to summon her.

Xiang'an was sweating profusely from running, and when he saw her, he hurried forward to meet her: "Miss Shen, Your Majesty learned that the rumors about Princess Fuling are being discussed in the capital, Longyan is furious!"

Shen Sitang smiled calmly: "I know."

Xiang An was worried for her: "How can Miss Shen be so calm and composed? Your Majesty thinks that this matter has something to do with Miss Shen. Announcing you to enter the palace is probably asking for punishment!"

Shen Sitang nodded: "Your Majesty guessed right, I did this."

"what?"

Everyone in Xiang'an was dumbfounded, and didn't react for a while.

Mu Huaichuan broke the silence: "Please trouble my father-in-law to bring this censor into the palace together."

Only then did Xiang'an come back to his senses, and looked at Mu Huaichuan in embarrassment: "Master You Yushi, do you want to enter the palace too?"

"Can't you?"

"This... is not impossible. Your Majesty has already explained that if You Yushi enters the palace, no one is allowed to stop him, but now that such a big incident has happened, You Yushi entered the palace to face the saint without being summoned. In case His Majesty blames him ..."

"This censor will explain to His Majesty, and will never implicate Eunuch."

Xiang'an hurriedly said: "Master You Yushi is serious. If that's the case, you two come with your slaves."

Shen Sitang's injury was not healed, Mu Huaichuan had been looking at her worriedly, for fear that she would bump into him.

In the imperial study room, Prince Gong was furious, and Emperor Yongqing's face was also extremely ugly, but Governor Yushi Fu Yun's complexion was as usual, with a refined temperament.

Shen Sitang and Mu Huaichuan entered the imperial study under the leadership of Eunuch Xiang'an.

"My daughter, Shen Sitang, pays her respects to Your Majesty."

"The humble Mu Huaichuan sees His Majesty."

Emperor Yongqing frowned, and slightly raised his hand: "Let's flatten your body." After he finished speaking, his face softened a little, and he looked at Mu Huaichuan and said, "Huaichuan is here too, it's been cold these days, and I ordered someone to make you some body Clothes, I thought I would send someone to deliver them to your residence tomorrow, and since you have entered the palace, you can bring them back by yourself."

Shen Sitang looked at Mu Huaichuan, Emperor Yongqing had someone make some clothes for him?Could he not be the illegitimate son of Emperor Yongqing?
Mu Huaichuan saluted respectfully and thanked him: "Thank you for your majesty's reward."

Emperor Yongqing sighed and didn't say much. He rolled his eyes and saw Shen Sitang next to him, and his face suddenly became ugly.

"Shen Sitang, I heard that you have found out the truth about Princess Fuling's case?"

It's really quick to change face. It's a match for Jun Ting Yan, worthy of being a father and son.

While complaining in his heart, Shen Sitang said neither humble nor overbearing: "Return to His Majesty, it has indeed been found out."

"tell me the story."

"Yes!" She replied, and then said eloquently: "This case has to start from the Zhulu Racecourse. That day, the courtier went riding a horse and ran into the princess. For some reason, the princess stepped forward and reprimanded the courtier. The meaning between the words Probably because of the humble status of the courtiers, they are not qualified to ride horses in the Zhulu racecourse. The courtiers argued with the Princess at that time, saying that His Majesty is benevolent, and in this regard, the children of the ministers are allowed to enjoy the same treatment as the royal family and nobles. Xu's words annoyed the Princess , The princess wants to punish the courtiers and daughters, but it happens that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Sixth Prince are here, and the Sixth Prince is jealous, so he reprimanded the princess a few words."

Shen Sitang was still weak, but every word he said was clear and orderly, and he didn't even forget to praise Emperor Yongqing and the sixth prince, and stepped on Princess Fuling by the way.

Mu Huaichuan felt that he was worrying too much. He didn't need to follow Shen Sitang to handle the situation. See how eloquent she is.

Emperor Yongqing wanted to criticize, but Shen Sitang said that he was benevolent. Should he refute this and blame her for going to the Zhulu Racecourse to ride a horse?

He sighed heavily, feeling inexplicably suffocated.

Shen Sitang continued: "The princess got angry at the Zhulu Racecourse. After returning home, she called Shen Yiran, the maid in her room, to her front, and vented all her anger on the innocent maid, resulting in the tragic death of the maid. For this matter, the maid's body was buried in the yard, what she didn't know was that the maid had a brother who was a monk, and he collected enough money to redeem the maid's body and came to the king's palace to be an important person, thus causing her death."

"Nonsense!" Prince Gong glared at her angrily: "Shen Sitang, you dare to talk nonsense in front of His Majesty, brother, Fuling definitely did not kill anyone!"

Shen Sitang expected that Prince Gong would not admit it, so he said loudly: "Prince Gong, why bother to quibble, my servant has already found out the truth and has her own evidence, Your Majesty, that maid's face is covered with fragments of vases, and that maid's body is covered with old clothes. Jiu Scar, she is a maid in Princess Fuling's yard, who else would dare to treat her like this except the princess!"

"Nonsense, shut up for me, shut up!"

Shen Sitang looked into Prince Gong's angry eyes: "Prince Gong, people are watching, the truth will always surface, and Prince Gong is unwilling to admit it in front of His Majesty, don't you know that this is a crime of deceiving the emperor!"

Prince Gong's face changed suddenly, and he knelt down towards Emperor Yongqing with a plop: "Brother Huang, I don't believe that Fu Ling would do such a thing, she is still a child!"

"Child? Princess Fuling has been known to harm people since she was seven years old. It's so strange to kill a maid today. The courtiers don't believe it. Does Prince Gong really know nothing about Princess Fuling's actions?"

"Shen Sitang, you!"

Emperor Yongqing had a headache, waved his hand to signal Prince Gong to get up, and then stared at Shen Sitang with sharp eyes: "I heard that there are rumors in the capital that Princess Fuling tortured and killed the maid and caused her death. This rumor is not the same as what you just said. The words are the same, could it be you who spread the word?"

Shen Sitang did not answer Emperor Yongqing directly, but corrected him: "Your Majesty, this is not a rumor."

"I'm asking you, did you send someone to spread rumors?"

"Your Majesty! This is not a rumor!" Shen Sitang insisted on correcting Emperor Yongqing again.

Emperor Yongqing was furious: "Presumptuous!"

Shen Sitang straightened his back, showing no fear on his face.

"I'll ask you again, did you spread it?"

Emperor Yongqing didn't say the word rumor this time.

Shen Sitang is very clear why the emperor questioned her again and again. As long as she dares to admit it, the crime of dishonoring the royal family's reputation will be placed on her. Even if what she finds out is the truth, the emperor can punish her. , Give her a lesson she will never forget!

Prince Gong snorted cruelly, gloating and waiting for Shen Sitang to reply.

Shen Sitang took a deep breath, her face gradually calmed down, she promised the little Taoist priest that she would definitely seek justice for his sister, the emperor would not kill her, at most beat her half to death, she just accepted it!
"Return to Your Majesty, my daughter..."

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince seeks an audience."

Just at this time, Xiang'an was ordered to pass on the message.

Shen Sitang breathed a sigh of relief for no reason when he heard His Highness the Sixth Prince's words.

Emperor Yongqing frowned, and said in a deep voice, "Xuan!"

Xiang'an immediately shouted: "Prince Xuan Liu has an audience."

Dressed in a black python robe, Jun Tingyan stepped in, stopped beside Shen Sitang, glanced at her from the corner of the eye, and then bowed his hands to greet the emperor.
