Chapter 580 Is it possible for him to perform sexual acts in this state?
Zhang Churan's face turned pale with fright.
"I'm not going to sue!"
"I'm not going to sue!"
It's too late!
Shen Lanxi glanced coldly over and saw the Imperial Guards on either side, each holding a sword to Zhang Churan's shoulder.
When the Zhang family saw their daughter like this, their faces turned deathly pale.
It's over, it's really over!
The Imperial Guards quickly brought over a jar of wine.
To save face, Shen Yuanhao picked it up and started shoveling it into his mouth.
Dali Temple: "Wait a minute, drink it one sip at a time, otherwise you won't get drunk quickly." Even if you're a knockout after one cup, you still need to give the alcohol time to react!
Ministry of Justice: "Drink the same way you drank that night, and drink the same way now."
Shen Yuanhao was initially reluctant to listen, but when he saw that the Ministry of Justice's explanation was indeed reasonable and well-founded.
I quickly took a small sip.
The officials' disdainful gazes rose and fell like the tide!
After taking the first sip, Shen Yuanhao waited several breaths before taking the second sip.
"I drank very slowly that day!"
To the officials, this was a forced explanation. It was no different from telling a drunkard that he wasn't drunk.
"That day..."
With a loud crash, the wine jar fell to the ground.
Shen Yuanhao's eyes slowly became vacant, and his body began to sway unsteadily.
The officials were shocked!
Shen Lanxi watched with amusement, her smile growing wider with each passing moment.
An official who knew Shen Yuanhao tried to help him up, but Shen Lanxi stopped him sternly.
"Don't help him up, what if he's faking it?"
Everyone knows that this was said to the Zhang family.
Unfortunately, no sooner had he finished speaking than Shen Yuanhao staggered toward the corner of the wall.
Halfway there, he suddenly collapsed to the ground with a thud, and then began snoring.
The officials were all trying to suppress their laughter.
Shen Lanxi looked at the imperial physician: "Imperial physician, is it possible for him to have intercourse in this condition?"
"puff……"
Some people couldn't hold it in and burst out laughing.
My God!
As expected of the first female emperor in history, her words are so powerful!
The imperial physician stepped forward, his shoulders trembling, clearly having endured a great deal of pain.
"Your Majesty, it is impossible." He would never say "acting as a human being" even if he were beaten to death.
He's a man, yet he doesn't speak as directly as a woman.
Shen Lanxi: "Are you sure?"
"Pfft pfft..."
This question drew another burst of laughter and shoulder-shaking.
The imperial physician braced himself, his old face turning red with embarrassment.
"This old minister is certain that General Shen is no different from a lump of mud, to put it bluntly."
How can mud possibly stand up?
If she can still succeed even like this, it can only mean that this woman is going to great lengths to get into bed with someone.
Shen Lanxi looked at Zhang Churan.
"Did you hear what the imperial physician said? Perhaps you poisoned him, but unfortunately Shen Yuanhao's alcohol tolerance is so low that he didn't drink much."
"Perhaps you didn't drug him, and you didn't expect Shen Yuanhao to have such a low alcohol tolerance."
"You might also conclude that Shen Yuanhao is faking it."
After examining the body, the imperial physician said, "Your Majesty, General Shen is indeed dead from drunkenness."
Shen Lanxi clicked her tongue.
"It seems I don't need to say anything more."
"Zhang Churan, it was your own sister who died. Your sister's body is barely cold, and you're already trying to climb into your brother-in-law's bed. What about propriety and shame?"
"The Zhang family must be aware of this matter, otherwise they wouldn't all have come to complain to the emperor."
Madam Miao reminded him, "Your Majesty, Sister-in-law Zhang Churan and her child did not come."
Shen Lanxi: "See? There are still smart people out there."
The Zhang family was furious with their daughter-in-law. They knew there was danger, so why didn't she stop them?
"What is the sentence for plotting against an official appointed by the imperial court and disobeying an imperial decree?"
Dali Temple: "The entire family will be executed, and all their property confiscated!"
The Zhang family members were so frightened that they cried and crawled to Shen Lanxi, begging for mercy.
Would the Imperial Guards allow them to get close to His Majesty? Are their knives just for show?
The Zhang family members were so frightened that they cried out that they were innocent and begged the Shen family to plead for them.
Unfortunately, this time no one from the Shen family pleaded for them.
"My grandson is a prince adopted by Your Majesty. Your Majesty, you cannot kill me..."
"Shen Yuanhao, if we die, how will you explain this to Chu Chu..."
"Have mercy! We were wrong, we'll never do it again."
"We're going back to our hometown now, and we'll never come to Beijing again in our lives!"
Liu Yan replied: "Your Majesty, a country has its laws, and a family has its rules. False accusations against officials of the court must not be tolerated!"
“Your Majesty, they knew perfectly well that Your Majesty had ordered the Shen family members to observe mourning, yet they still committed such a heinous and outrageous act. They are absolutely unforgivable.”
"Your Majesty, without eliminating the Zhang family, there is no way to uphold the law and rectify the court!"
Shen Lanxi waited until her voice was a little quieter before speaking.
"Third Uncle, Yuan Hao is drunk. You are his father and can represent him fully. What do you suggest we do?"
Shen Congli said coldly, "The two officials from the Court of Judicial Review and the Ministry of Justice are right. The prince is subject to the same laws as the common people. No matter who they are or what their status is, since they have violated the law, they should be punished accordingly."
Shen Lanxi: "Good, as expected of a son of the Shen family."
After saying that, her tone softened.
"To punish the Zhang family immediately after Zhang Chuchu's death seems rather cold-hearted."
"At the beginning of my reign, I did not want to commit too many atrocities. Let this be a prayer for Yuan Hao's premature child!"
The third branch of the Shen family was somewhat moved.
"Alright then, all the Zhang family members present, according to the laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty, who have filed false accusations against the emperor, will each receive fifty strokes of the cane or be rolled on a bed of nails. Anyone who survives will be exiled to Dongchuan!"
The officials stared in disbelief: This is not considered not committing too many killings? One person gets fifty strokes, and by the time they've taken twenty or thirty, they'll be dead.
They realized that from beginning to end, His Majesty had never intended to let them live!
"Aren't there still some members of the Zhang family who haven't arrived yet? I imagine they are all reasonable people. Let's spare their lives and relocate them to Dongchuan or the Northwest. The Ministry of Justice and the Ministry of Personnel can arrange it as they see fit."
"Furthermore, two-thirds of their family property will be confiscated, and the Ministry of Revenue will handle the arrangements."
Liu Yan replied, "Your subject obeys the decree." He was only to be given enough for the travel expenses of the relocated soldiers.
"Take him away and execute him!"
"yes!"
One by one, the Zhang family members were gagged and led to the execution site.
Shen Yuanhao was also taken back by the Shen family. As for observing the execution?
No, that's not true. Whoever wants to watch can watch; they wish they could sprout wings and hurry back home.
...
Shen Lanxi led the officials back to the Golden Palace to discuss matters.
"Zhou Ruyuan is nothing but a poor imitation; the successor of the thatched cottage is nothing more than this!"
Song Daoxi has stepped forward again.
“Zhou Ruyuan is foolish and unaware of his own stupidity. His actions are tantamount to seeking help from a tiger. Yuan Lang is in Cao Cao's camp but his heart is with Han. He and Zhou Qiwu have long been secretly communicating.”
“Zhou Yanxing is a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Da Feng not only cannot appease those people, but will also nurture their wolfish ambitions.”
"Those who went to join Zhou Ruyuan were there to divide up his power!"
"His actions are tantamount to inviting a wolf into the house, courting his own destruction!"
The officials suddenly understood, and after the court session, they gathered in small groups to discuss the matter.
"No wonder the Imperial Preceptor hasn't set off yet; it turns out he looks down on the so-called successor of the thatched cottage."
"No wonder the lineage of the Caolu School has died out. With this level of skill, they can't even catch up with the heels of the Guigu School's successor!"
