The Abandoned Daughter

Chapter 308 Xie's Family Accepted

Li Jie said calmly, "Going back to the emperor, the craftsman is now outside the hall. He ate too much and revealed the secret. He happened to be caught by the minister. The minister knew that this matter was of great importance, so he didn't even see the foot sickness. , And rushed him all the way."

Hearing this, Emperor Jing slowly let out a suffocating breath and said, "Take him to the palace!"

After the craftsman went to the palace, the faces of others were all fine, but Xiao Junhan's face suddenly changed! He knew very well in his heart that this craftsman belonged to Shen Jingci!

When the craftsman arrived at this time, he also understood what had happened, his knees softened, and he knelt down involuntarily, speaking in a strong local voice, and said, "Caomin kow to see my emperor long live."

Emperor Jing said gloomily, "Do you recognize this kind of paper?" In fact, when Li Jie was able to unlock the mechanism on this paper just now, he knew that this piece of paper was inseparable from the craftsman, but he still wanted to confirm it again.

The craftsman only glanced at it from a distance, and then smiled honestly, "Going back to the emperor, I made the paper, and I will only use it when conveying secret words."

Emperor Jing sneered and said, "Then whose craftsman are you?"

The craftsman glanced at Shen Yuming cautiously, before he said, "Cao Min is the craftsman of the Shen family paper mill." After that, he didn't know the reason for being too sincere, but he added, "The signing is a death agreement. "

As soon as these words came out, the hall immediately exploded. How many Shen's were there in the Manchu civil and military? Which one has a paper mill? It's all one family!

That daughter is the side concubine of King Qi, and the son has lost another Shen family in the city!

Shen Yuming is a little bit at a loss right now. If he still doesn't understand that there is something tricky on the piece of paper by this time, then he has been an official for so many years!

It's just that what was written on the paper could make the aura on Emperor Jing so gloomy and terrifying. This is what worries Shen Yuming.

"Heh, what a Shen family!" Emperor Jing took a deep breath and said, "Apart from making this paper in the Shen family, have you ever told anyone about the secret recipe of this paper?"

The craftsman quickly shook his head like a rattle, and said, "This piece of paper is handed down from the ancestors of the Caomin family. How dare you tell others, the ancestors will blame me!"

"Can someone else see through this piece of paper how to make it?"

Hearing this, the craftsman immediately wanted to beat him up, so he couldn't help but stand up and talk to Emperor Jing, "Don't worry, if I don't say how to use this paper, they won't even be able to tell what's inside, let alone say. I have stolen my craft. Our old Li family has been passed on from generation to generation, and we rely on this craft to survive, and it is passed on from men to women. So, besides me, there is absolutely no second person in this world who knows this!"

This craftsman is honest, and he doesn't look like a treacherous person. Emperor Jing nodded and said, "Okay, it's all about you, you can go down."

The craftsman didn't expect that after meeting the emperor, he still had his life to go out, so he immediately replied, "Thank you, the emperor, thank you, the emperor!"

After the craftsman went out, Emperor Jing held the piece of paper and said, "Xiao Linzi, please read the contents of this to them."

Grandpa Lin responded, "The slave follows the order." He took the piece of paper, and said in a sharp voice, "General Shen Qi-"

It was just that his expression changed, but his long-term harem career had given him a profuse disguise, and he put away the look of consternation right now, and continued to read in a flat voice.

"The more I was grateful to the general of a city before giving in. The plague in our army has already been seen, and I thank the general for the prescription. It is just that the son of the Xie family came here, for fear of disturbing you and me, so I should get rid of it as soon as possible. I will send it out the next day When a man is attacking the city, you will push him up to the city gate, and there will be a **** archer who can pierce Yang with a hundred steps, and he will be the head of the man!"

As soon as his voice fell, the Manchu dynasty civil and military were in an uproar.

If the people present can get into this official position, which one is not a human spirit? The previous craftsman belonged to the Shen family. Why did this letter paper unique to the Shen family go to the local chief? Isn't it clear at a glance? Combined with the content of this letter, it can be seen that it is not two or three days for the Shen family to collude with each other!

Emperor Jing asked coldly, "Shen Yuming, what else do you have to say?"

Shen Yuming looked dazed, kowtow, "Going back to the emperor, the minister doesn't know what's going on, this is slander! Yes, this is slander! The family of ministers is loyal and will never be two-minded, please, the emperor. You see!"

The Xie family did not speak from beginning to end, but Xie Shenyan raised his head at this time and said in pain, "Shen Yuming, you and my family have always been politically different. I don't say anything about this. After all, the Manchu civil and military officials have different voices before they can be called. I'm tuned in for good weather! But how can you do such a rebellious thing, in order to thank the family to the death, you even united with the thieves!"

His words were sobbing blood, and he made Shen Yuming's argument indisputable, and he only said dryly, "You are spitting blood!"

"Seeing me giving in to the great rivers and mountains, I can't wait to kill you!"

Xie Shenyan was full of hatred, and his eyes were almost bloodshot. Shen Yuming couldn't help but step back.

Xie Shenyan had also experienced in Beijing, knowing how difficult it is for the soldiers to defend the country. Later, he was transferred back to civilian officials, and he was also dedicated to the welfare of the soldiers. So when Xie Huainan went to join the army, Xie Shenyan was happy and distressed.

Shen Jingxiang on the side obviously didn't expect things to reverse like this. He shook his head and said, "No, someone must be setting up the Shen family! After the spy was caught by my soldiers, I had not contacted him. If I knew Knowing that there is another organization in this letter, why should I try to arrest him in such a concerted effort!"

But the soldier kneeling next to him spoke at this moment, "General, you read that letter first."

What the soldier said was a little cautious, but it shocked the people present. When he looked at Shen Jingxiang, his eyes became more and more suspicious.

Yes, since Shen Jingxiang saw this letter for the first time, he must know that the outer layer is a disguise. However, he and Na Yue Guozhu thought about it together, so they made a decisive decision to let the disguise on the outside of this letter sit down!

What a Shen family, what a calculating Shen Jingxiang!

When Emperor Jing thought of this, he suddenly felt a sense of ignorance. He pointed to Shen Jingxiang and said, "It was you, Shen Jiakou, who repeatedly asserted that the Yue State Council came over. At that time, I was very curious. The Shen family had no connection in the military. Why did you know this news before me? But it turned out that all of this was your Shen family's own affairs! What kind of intention to lose the city, it is clear that you gave it away! For your own personal benefit, you actually gave away my great rivers and mountains! "

Back then, the people in the capital still rumored that the Shen family was the savior. Oh, what a savior! He knew that something abnormal was a demon, but he didn't know that it was so evil!

The Shen family, the Shen family, it was wasted that he thought they were good at the time!

The emperor got angry, all the officials in the hall knelt down and said in unison, "The emperor calms down!"

"Quite my anger? Tell me, how do I calm my anger?" Jingdi asked while standing, gritting his teeth every word.

But the ministers in the hall, who dares to answer?

Still Li Jie said, "The emperor, the minister thought that such workshops should not be kept, and this kind of paper should not appear on the market. This kind of things almost harmed the generation of Zhongliang, who knows whether it will become a harm to others next time. What about human means?"

Emperor Jing nodded and said, "Well, I order you to seal up this workshop immediately and imprison all the people involved in making paper in it."

Having said this, he looked at the kneeling Shen family again and said, "As for the Shen family, we pass my will. The Shen family has a heart out, with foreign enemies inside, and colluding with Vietnamese thieves, causing the frontier to lose a city. He framed Zhongliang again, Danger covered the Pearl, and the loyal minister died tragically. The whole family was sent to jail, and the Shen family had merits, and only one of the Shen family was escorted, not linked."

"My emperor is kind!"

All the people in the hall kowtowed their heads to thank you. Although Xiao Junhan also kowtowed, he felt cold in his hands and feet. He only knew that Shen Jingci had shown off the power of this kind of paper to himself, but he didn't know that the Shen family had collided with the enemy and treason!

How much did Shen Jingci hide from herself!

Shen Yuming cried bitterly and begged the emperor for mercy, while looking at Xiao Junhan for help, but the latter did not seem to see it, and he was even mean to look at him.

Shen Yuming felt resentful, but was helplessly detained by officials.

On the other hand, Shen Jingxiang's face was as gray as death. In fact, he was hesitant in his heart, not knowing whether the Shen family's charges were true or false. If it is false, why did the Shen family's only piece of paper get into the hands of the enemy general? If it is true, who will receive the letter for the Shen family? Could it be the so-called loyal servant around him?

It wasn't until the Shen family were detained that Emperor Jing personally walked down from the dragon chair, walked in front of Xie Shengli, personally helped him up, and said, "Master, I blamed you, I am not."

Xie Shengli's vicissitudes of face, sighed, "The emperor, it is a traitorous official who made trouble, how could it be your fault? It's just that I lost a city like this, which is really hateful! The old official can't wait to go to the battlefield in person and take back the border of my court. what!"

What he said was the truth. He Xie Shengli followed Gaozu all his life and settled down when he was old, but the place where the soldiers had sweated and blood was lost like that! How can he not feel sad? !

Xie Huainan was still kneeling on his knees and stubbornly raised his head and said, "The emperor, please allow the ministers to return to the frontier again. The Vietnamese who do not fight will hug their heads and will never return!"

Upon hearing this, Emperor Jing suddenly laughed and said, "Okay, it's worthy of the Xie family, what an ambitious man! I've got it!"

As he said, he patted Xie Huainan on the shoulder again, and said, "Spread my will, to appoint Xie Huainan as a deputy general, and Prime Minister Mobei! You must cooperate with the king of North to fight the thieves of Vietnam. Hug your head!"

The latter sentence was actually addressed to Xie Huainan. After hearing this, Xie Huainan looked excited and said, "The emperor can rest assured, the minister will do it!"

Emperor Jing nodded, and then returned to the dragon chair, saying, "Xie's family is loyal, Xie Shenyan is an official and upright, now he is a loyal marquise, and enjoys the first-class salary! The second son Xie Shen acts as Weiyuanbo and enjoys the second-class. Salary!"

"The minister thanks Lord Longen!"

After Xie's family thanked him collectively, he returned to his position, but his face was still full of humility, not arrogant or impetuous, rewarding not complacent and punishing not inferiority.

After Emperor Jing gave the reward, he said, "Everyone, love Qing, retreat."

"Long live my emperor, long live--"

Emperor Jing walked out first, and Duke Lin followed closely behind. In the back, it was Xiao Junxi and Xiao Junhan side by side, just with a smile on one face like a spring breeze, and the other with cold snow and frost.

After that, the courtiers filed out according to their ranks.

It wasn't until Emperor Jing disappeared that the surrounding ministers complimented Xie Shengli, "Xie Lao, today I have lost my injustice, and my family has been promoted again. It is really gratifying."

The smile on Xie Shengli's face didn't reach the bottom of his eyes. When these people were in trouble in the Xie family just now, no one dared to stand up. Except for the Jiang family, that was a brother-in-law after all.

So only smiled, "It's the grace of heaven, but then again, Thunder and Yulu are graces of the emperor, no matter what the emperor said, we all have to thank you."
