The King of Qi frowned slightly, "It's only because the Princess has a good temper. If it were someone else, I'm afraid they would punish you!"
"Your Highness, Prince of Qi." Qin Song saluted with red eyes, clasping his fists. "I really am..."
"The Shen family is too bullying, but as the future prince consort, no one dares to intervene. Apart from asking the princess for help, I really have no other options!"
Qin Song's words were spoken with sincerity, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Shen Yuming was filled with deep hatred. If Lin Chunhuan had not known the inside story in advance, he would have been fooled.
I have to say that Qin Song is not only very methodical in killing enemies in battle, he is also really talented in acting!
Lin Chunhuan coughed twice. "General Qin, are you planning to sue the future Prince Consort in front of me today?"
Qin Song didn't hesitate, kneeling on one knee and clasping his fists in salute. "Reporting to the Princess, the Junior Minister of the Honglu Temple, Chen Yuming, has been secretly having an affair with my wife while I was fighting the enemy, and they've become pregnant!"
"Now Bai Xiaoxiao is pregnant with Chen Yuming's child. This is such a great shame and humiliation that it would make people laugh if I told them. I don't want to make it public and just want to divorce her secretly."
Before Qin Song finished speaking, everyone present had strange expressions on their faces.
After all, not long ago, Chen Yuming was still saying that they would be together for life, but not long after, in less than a cup of tea, he even had a child with another woman!
And the other party is actually a married woman.
This kind of scandal, especially in Kyoto, caused beads of sweat to fall from Shen Yuming's forehead. Before Qin Song could finish speaking, he swung his sleeves and said, "What nonsense!"
"Although Xiaoxiao and I are related and are indeed closer than others, we are both innocent. As for the secret affair and the child, Qin Song, you are clearly slandering us!"
Facing Shen Yuming's defense, Qin Song just snorted coldly and looked at Lin Chunhuan without saying a word.
He looked as if he simply disdained to say a word to someone like Shen Yuming.
Shen Yuming panicked even more, even disregarding his status. He quickly walked over to Bai Xiaoxiao, who was half-sitting on the ground, and grabbed her wrist. "Xiaoxiao, Xiaoxiao, quickly tell the princess."
"That's not the case at all. We had no relationship before. This is all just Qin Song talking nonsense. Tell me now!"
Faced with Shen Yuming's almost crazy look, Bai Xiaoxiao's eyes were obviously a little empty. She dodged and didn't dare to look into his eyes. In the end, she just screamed and pulled back her hand.
He sat on the ground and refused to say a word except crying.
Bai Xiaoxiao's reaction made Shen Yuming's heart sink.
But Lin Chunhuan frowned and asked Caiyun to step forward and pull Shen Yuming back to his original position. "Don't panic, Mr. Shen. No matter what, we should listen to what General Qin has to say first."
"Once everything is explained clearly, the right and wrong will be determined. Auntie, Fourth Brother, what are your opinions?"
The King of Qi came to watch the show, so naturally he would not ruin his sister's act at this time. As for the Princess of Yan, no one wanted to have their ugly deeds brought to light.
She simply wished that the Shen family mother and son would die!
Now she didn't have to do anything herself to punish the person she hated. Princess Yan lowered her eyes and drank her tea silently, "The Princess is right."
Qin Song clasped his fists and saluted again. He glanced at Shen Yuming and said, "I originally just wanted to divorce, but Bai Xiaoxiao refused to agree no matter what."
"In desperation, I wanted to divorce my wife. By then, I still didn't know whose child Bai Xiaoxiao was carrying. I never expected that..."
"On the day I wrote the letter of divorce, Bai Xiaoxiao actually teamed up with Chen Yuming to poison me! If I hadn't always been cautious about my diet, I would have been murdered by this adulterous couple. Princess, Chen Yuming is a court official and the future prince consort. I will report this matter to the Jingzhao Prefecture."
“But there has been no response.”
"Murdering a minister of the court is a capital crime punishable by death. I cannot believe that there is no place in the prosperous state where I can reason with you. Since Chen Yuming is the future consort of the princess, I only have one question."
"The Duke is not in charge of this matter!"
"If you don't care, I will have no choice but to file a complaint with the Emperor and bring this matter before His Majesty, seeking justice!"
Every word Qin Song said was deafening. Lin Chunhuan opened her mouth slightly, looking at a loss, "General Qin, you... Although I sympathize with your situation."
"But since you have accused Shen Shaoqing, you must provide evidence. I can't convict you based on your one-sided statement."
"Besides, even if I wanted to intervene, as a woman, I can't convict the ministers of this dynasty. I really..."
Seeing Lin Chunhuan's embarrassment, Qin Song's brows relaxed. "As long as the princess is willing to uphold justice, I can naturally produce evidence."
Qin Song's calm look made Shen Yuming's arms tremble slightly.
He really couldn't imagine what evidence Qin Song could produce, but he knew better than anyone that the poisoning had really happened, and it was definitely him who provided the poison.
But as long as Bai Xiaoxiao doesn't say it, Qin Song will never know.
"Shen Shaoqing, since General Qin has accused you of having an affair with his wife and colluding with her to poison her, as the accused party, do you have anything to say?"
These words were not said by Lin Chunhuan, but by the King of Qi.
Just as Lin Chunhuan said, although she was the eldest princess, she did not have the right to convict court officials. The most she could do was to send Shen Yuming to the court!
But just because she doesn't have this right doesn't mean others don't have it, such as the King of Qi.
For example, the prince.
The King of Qi looked at Shen Yuming and said, "Although I don't care about the three courts, if you have something to argue with, Lord Shen, I can immediately invite the crown prince. After all, you are my sister's future husband."
"No matter what, we, your uncles, will not let you be wrongly accused. We will definitely give you justice!"
Shen Yuming: Thank you!
How could he dare to ask the King of Qi to really invite the Crown Prince? Once it came to the stage of a joint trial by the three judges, unless Bai Xiaoxiao could grit her teeth and not give him up, otherwise...
But in this situation, if he doesn't insist that he is being wronged, he will probably be thrown into jail on the spot!
"Your humble servant." Shen Yuming gritted his teeth, his eyes falling on Bai Xiaoxiao from time to time.
But from beginning to end, I didn't get even a glance in response.
The woman just cried and cried non-stop, as if she had endless tears. Shen Yuming took a deep breath, having not expected this at all.
He just wanted to bring his mother to see the newly built princess mansion and his future residence, but things turned out like this. He could only pretend to be calm and salute, "Your humble servant, this is truly unjust!"
