Chapter 1654 Behind the scenes
His tone was so light and casual, but amidst his calm and indifference, there was heavy pressure on Fan Shang's heart.

It was almost hard for him to breathe.

He tried his best to resist the coercion, and said: "But it's up to His Majesty to deal with it!"

"Okay!" Wei Shu's cherry red lips parted slightly, and the words he said were ruthless, "If you deliberately frame up, all the men from your Fan family will be castrated and sent to the palace as slaves, and all the women, old and young, will be sent to the teaching workshop manage."

"Zhen, I'll give you one last chance, do you want to confront me?"

Fan Shang's back was covered with cold sweat.

But if he said he was not confronted now, it would be tantamount to telling everyone that he was actually lying about everything before.

The man said that he was completely sure that he could win this round, and that he still had key evidence that he had not produced, so he could deal a fatal blow at that time.

You can bet on this big gamble!

Anyway, since then, the Fan family has also cut off the lineage. Instead of rotting away in obscurity, it is better to give it a go and ask for justice!
Fan Shang kowtowed heavily: "My minister, please confront me!"

"Okay!" Wei Shu's eyes were full of coldness, "Two days from now, the two sides will confront each other in Dali Temple, Yang Qingfeng, you are in charge of this matter. If your grandson hasn't woken up by then, just pour a ladle of water on him to wake him up." Bring it up!"

"In the past two days, both of you should show your abilities!"

When Wei Shu said this, everyone was speechless.

Why does Your Majesty look optimistic about the show? Don't you worry about your cousin at all? The current situation looks very unfavorable.

Fan Shang's thoughts suddenly changed.

Could it be that His Majesty is not as fond of his qualified cousin as he imagined?

If that is the best, then the Fan family will have a greater chance of winning.

As for the next agenda this morning, everyone was a little absent-minded, and their minds flew to this confrontation.

If the Fan family really caught Jiang Yingying's fault this time, it would be tantamount to catching the fault of the Duke of Qi's mansion. It would be a great achievement for a small seventh-rank official to pry a first-rank Duke.

I just don't know how this matter will progress.

After leaving court, the official who came out today and said he had seen Xiao Zi was taken away by people from Dali Temple who Yang Qingfeng asked.

Yang Qingfeng is now the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, as powerful as the late Liu Mianmian's grandfather Liu Gongyun. The minister of Dali Temple is old, and most of the affairs of Dali Temple are taken care of by Yang Qingfeng.

Everyone knew that he was the next Minister of Dali Temple.

Yang Qingfeng is an upright person. He once asked to resign from his official position and accept punishment because of his wife's mistakes. He is a rare clean stream in the court.

Wei Shu handed over the matter to him, which surprised many courtiers.

Yang Qingfeng would not have any scruples about Jiang Yingying's identity and the relationship with His Majesty, he would do whatever he wanted!
When the official was taken away, he was a little flustered. He repeated again and again: I was just telling the truth, why would you take me away? If I had known earlier, I would not have said anything!
Look, it caused this show.

Yang Qingfeng put on a serious face: "It's what a gentleman does to speak up righteously, why don't you say it?"

"In that case, why did you take me to Dali Temple?"

"Prevent you from colluding with others!"

"Who am I going to collude with? I'm just passing by!"

"That's what you said. As the presiding judge of this case, I can't just listen to one side and believe it. You just go to Dali Temple to live for two days. After the two days of confrontation, you really have no problem, and you will naturally walk out!"

The official could only let out a long sigh, with a look of helplessness on his face.

When everyone went down to court, they also saw this scene and thought in their hearts: From this point of view, there should be nothing wrong with what he said.

This is really...

Not sure how to comment on this.

Some people who had a good relationship with Qi State on weekdays came forward one after another at this time, either comforting or saying that they needed help, just ask.

Everyone could see that even if Jiang Yingying really killed her, so what if she would be punished for it. As long as His Majesty's affection for Duke Qi is still there, Duke Qi's mansion can still stand in the court.

This is capital.

So you can't alienate the relationship because of such a thing.

General Gao is the last one. He has not been active in court recently, coming and going from time to time.Anyway, his current position is empty with a title, which is of no practical use.

People are almost gone.

General Gao walked to Duke Qi's side, looked up at the sky, and said meaningfully: "It's going to rain, the day is going to change, does Duke Qi have an umbrella?"

"Never!"

"I brought it with me, but I don't know if Qi Guogong wants to come with you?"

Qi Guogong shook his head: "Thank you General Gao for your kindness. Right now, my mind is in a mess. If it rains, it will help me to think clearly!"

Duke Qi laughed three times: "Forget it, it's just that the rain may not be light, Duke Qi must be careful, not only will your head be wet, but also your body will be wet, and you may accidentally step on the mud and get up again. not coming!"

"In the past, you were sure to help you. The people who supported you may have changed their minds and gave the umbrella to others! Qi Guogong is still waiting, isn't it stupid?"

While speaking, General Gao pointed his gaze in one direction.

Duke Qi followed the sound and saw that His Majesty was wearing a cloak, standing under the porch, talking to Marquis Huaiyuan with a smile on his face.

Marquis Huaiyuan's voice was always loud, and his laughter wafted hahaha in the empty Chongde Hall.

Wei Shu raised his provocative phoenix eyes, glanced at the sky, and seemed to say: It's going to rain.

Behind him, Xiao Fuzi came out with an umbrella.

Wei Shu motioned for him to hand the umbrella to Huaiyuanhou, but Huaiyuanhou was not polite, and after taking it with his hand, he thanked him casually.

The relationship between the monarch and his ministers is so casual, it is not like the emperor and his ministers, but more like a son-in-law, or a friend.

General Gao's eyes flashed with a look of watching the show: "Qi Guogong, how long has it been since you have enjoyed such treatment? In this regard, you are still not as free and easy as Marquis Huaiyuan!"

Duke Qi retracted his gaze, complex emotions flashed in his eyes, he didn't answer this sentence, he flicked his sleeves, and stepped on the high steps.

Gao Guang came up from behind and said in a low voice: "Grandfather, let's go too, Your Majesty just glanced at us!"

"Look and see, can you still punish me just because I left late?" General Gao said indifferently, "This Duke of Qi is not so easy to shake, but water drips through stone, we need a little patience!"

"Grandfather, if you want to break him over, I'm afraid you can't!"

"Whoever wants to break him, we just need to separate him from His Majesty. I dare not be in the same camp as him!"

One mountain cannot accommodate two tigers!

Qi Guogong's appeal in the army is no worse than his own!

"Let's wait for two days!" After getting into the carriage, General Gao asked in a deep voice, "Is everything all right?"
