After rebirth, the regent refused to divorce

Chapter 140 Cut Weeds and Exterminate Roots (1)

Liu Muzhi is still part of the Shu King's faction, Dingxi Hou Shizi is the Shu King's cousin, although he has never been loyal to the Shu King like Liu Muzhi, he should be a grasshopper on a rope.

But now Dingxihou Shizi is embarrassing Liu Muzhi in full view, and the reason for this is enough for everyone to secretly guess.

Liu Muzhi's eyes darkened, and he said with a sneer: "This is strange, Miss Yuan just now confirmed that the cover-up is true, and His Royal Highness Shizi put all kinds of reasons on me, I don't know, what is the connection between Shizi and the Shen family? "

The second son of Dingxihou said with a smile: "It's strange, just now, Mr. Liu was inquiring about Miss Yuan and Mrs. Shen's private affairs, but Mr. Liu kept silent. My brother just asked, and Mr. Liu was very angry. Can I understand that? , Mr. Liu confessed to his private investigation?"

The others were just watching this verbal battle, while Liu Muzhi retreated steadily. Chu Zhengyue played with the cup and gave Pingnanhou Mu Wenqing a look. Mu Wenqing understood, and said beside him: "Liu Muzhi Second master be careful! I heard that the wronged Mr. Shen was just released a few days ago. If Mr. Liu and Miss Shen really had any problems, they would naturally attack Mr. Shen, but now Mr. Shen is safe and sound. , it can be seen that what Liu Erye said is something out of nothing."

On the surface, Mu Wenqing shared the allegiance to the King of Shu with Liu Muzhi, so it would not cause doubts if he spoke.

However, his words were so insidious, it seemed to excuse Liu Muzhi, but in fact he brought the topic to the matter of Shen Yinian's imprisonment. Everyone present heard that there were thieves pretending to be the Shen and Yuan families to rob the prison, and that Shen Jingnian and Yuan Wanning were the same How to work together to exonerate Shen Yinian, so after hearing this, his expression became subtle.

Doesn't this mean that the subtext means that Shen Yinian's imprisonment has something to do with Liu Muzhi?

Shen Qingyi sneered silently, raised an eyebrow at Mu Wenqing, Mu Wenqing respected the cup with a smile, Shen Qingyi nodded, turned around, and looked at Liu Muzhi again.

She said loudly: "Thank you, Lord Hou, for reminding me. If Lord Hou didn't mention it, I would have forgotten about it. My elder brother was wronged and imprisoned a few days ago. There was a group of thieves who pretended to be thieves bought by my Shen family." The intention of robbing the prison is to get my elder brother convicted for escaping from prison.

"But everyone here knows that His Majesty is wise and will never condone the unjust case without a head. My brother's grievances will be cleared up. It can be seen that my brother's bribery and corruption are nothing. Then why do we need to rob prison?"

Her dark eyes stared at Liu Muzhi without any timidity, and her words were extremely piercing: "If it weren't for the deep affection between my brother and sister-in-law, sister Yuan would pretend to be a prison guard to visit my brother in silence, and my second brother would have another morning... I realized that something was wrong and came up with Li Shangshu and Dali Siqing to catch the turtle in the urn, I am afraid that my brother has already been exiled because of his escape from prison! It can be seen that the person who framed my elder brother has such a vicious mind!"

Her voice suddenly rose and became high-pitched and sharp, echoing in the entire Qionghua Palace, lingering in everyone's ears.

Most of the people here have more or less friendship with the Shen family, not to mention that the frame-up came too abruptly if you think about it carefully.

This young master Shen had just made an engagement with the Yuan family, and Miss Shen was kidnapped and taken to Xuanwu Mountain. He was pretended to be the thief of Shen Yuan's family and tried to rob the prison...

With all the conditions, it seems that they are deliberately targeting the Shen family.

Combined with Liu Muzhi's attitude towards the Shen brothers and sisters today, the answer is naturally self-evident.

Liu Muzhi could not help being ashamed and annoyed when he heard her subtext, and said angrily: "In front of His Majesty, Miss Shen, please don't tell lies!"

Chu Zhengyang leisurely waving his folding fan, watching the bustle without thinking of doing more things, "This girl Shen just said a few words of the truth, each sentence was sincere, and she almost cost Shen Dalang's life, she didn't say a word too much, Why is Mr. Liu so angry from embarrassment? Could it be that Mr. Liu panicked because of Miss Shen's words, so he was eager to get rid of his ties?"

When Liu Muzhi saw him, he remembered the rather leisurely ghostly look of this kid when he was competing for merit in Xuanwu Mountain, and his heart was filled with anger, so he retorted: "What I said was only because Miss Shen pointed her words at me, that's all. Miss Shen and I did have some feuds, but the reason was because my younger sister Mu Yan was murdered in prison.

"Although Mu Yan's result is self-inflicted, it is also caused by Miss Shen, so I have a bit of hatred for Miss Shen, but what Miss Shen said just now is to put the hat on the prefect Shen's imprisonment. On top of me, those culprits imprisoned by the Ministry of Punishment are dead men, and they can’t ask anything, and this matter can be said to be the Shen family’s own thieves calling out to catch the thieves.

His words were sonorous, and he put all his words back on Shen Qingyi's head in a desperate attempt.

However, when he raised his eyes, he saw that the light in Shen Qingyi's eyes looking at him was extremely subtle, and he couldn't help feeling ominous.

Shen Jingnian smiled and said: "This is really strange. I remember that when the criminal department interrogated the prisoners, in order to prevent the good people from being wronged, and to prevent the prisoners from colluding with the confession, the prisoners were interrogated alone, and they would not disclose anything about the prisoners to the outside world. How did Mr. Liu know that those thieves belonged to dead men?"

Liu Muzhi was in a hurry just now, he didn't think of this, he couldn't help but startled, and quickly argued: "It's just hearsay, not to mention there is no evidence, who wouldn't frame up with a red mouth and white teeth? Why are Mr. Shen and Miss Yuan so clever? , will it be calculated that someone will take action to rob the prison that day? I'm afraid this matter is really strange!"

Empress Mingyao said: "Indeed, as Mr. Liu said, it is indeed somewhat suspicious that Shen Er and Wan Ning appeared in the prison and successfully captured the prisoner, but Qingyi's words just now are not unreasonable, since the prefect Shen was wronged Well, why did the Shen family go to such lengths to find someone to rob the prison? It really doesn't make sense."

Empress Mingyao's words seem to be fair, but the implication is that although it is possible for the Shen family to do so, what Liu Muzhi said is nothing but nonsense, not to mention that there is absolutely no need for the Shen family to do so.

In front of the empress, Liu Muzhi was afraid that what he said would reveal something, and relying on his own backhand to handle it cleanly, he left his seat, knelt in the center of the hall, cupped his fists and said, "Since Mr. Being aggressive all the time, in front of all his colleagues, Wei Chen simply asked for an imperial decree for Mr. Shen and Miss Shen to thoroughly investigate the case of the prefect of Shen, in order to prove that Wei Chen had nothing to do with the case. Others are making false accusations, please Your Majesty be careful!"
