The news that Shen Weitian was still alive spread throughout the capital, and everyone on the streets was discussing this secret of the royal family.
This secret is so huge that it involves the former crown prince and the current emperor.
Some people who believed that Crown Prince Chen Yunheng should have inherited the throne expressed their disbelief.
How could such a brilliant and promising person do something so unjust?
Could it be that all the bad things that Shen Yunxiao did were blamed on Shen Yunheng?
After all, the two brothers have been at odds since childhood.
But there are also many people who think that Shen Yunxiao has done a good job in governance.
Since Shen Yunxiao ascended the throne, there have been fewer unjust, false and wrongful cases in the entire capital.
Because Shen Yunxiao's methods are more cruel and vicious than those of the Dali Temple, no one would seek death by provoking such a living devil!
When Mr. Lu, who was once the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, heard the news that Shen Weitian was still alive, he was so excited that he could not sit still and stood up and ran outside.
Lu Mingchuan was chasing after him.
The huge imperial palace is not a place that ordinary people like them can enter casually.
They were able to come in thanks to Lu Jinyue. Now Lu Jinyue and Shen Yunxiao are not here, and Eunuch Ma had previously warned them not to run around.
He became even more worried about his old father going out.
Father Lu was very familiar with this place, and he arrived at the door of the imperial study without any obstruction.
The young eunuch guarding the door didn't even try to stop him and let him in.
Lu Mingchuan also followed him in.
When he really saw Shen Weitian, a hint of surprise flashed in Father Lu's eyes, and his feet seemed to be fixed, unable to move even half a step.
"Your Majesty? Is it really you?" Father Lu knelt down on the ground and performed a kneeling ceremony.
Tears fell on the carpet, leaving a small stain.
Ever since Shen Weitian passed away, he would dream about the past between the emperor and his subjects every night.
Everything he did was done in a practical way. Every time he heard good things about Shen Weitian on the streets or in the countryside, he felt proud.
At that time, he had been transferred to a small town and became an insignificant official.
I didn’t expect to hear news about Shen Weitian again, it was a national mourning.
Father Lu's sobbing was particularly abrupt in the imperial study, and Eunuch Ma was deeply moved and wiped his eyes with his sleeves.
Lu Mingchuan glanced at Shen Weitian secretly and then quickly lowered his head. He was only a scholar and was not qualified to meet the emperor.
Seeing it now, my heart is filled with shock.
Shen Weitian's fingers trembled slightly, and he couldn't even hold the memorial steadily.
No one interrupted his crying.
It is normal for an old minister who is devoted to serving the people to cry at the feet of his former emperor.
After Mr. Lu had cried enough, he raised his head and wiped the tears from his face embarrassedly.
He used to dislike women who were tearful and would cry at the slightest displeasure.
He didn't expect this to happen to him, and he couldn't say anything to express his disgust.
The young eunuch brought a stool for the father and son to sit down.
Father Lu talked about the hardships along the way, and also said that Shen Yunheng's methods were vicious and he dealt with people like them who didn't want to take sides.
He kidnapped his own daughter a few days ago.
Every sentence accused Shen Yunheng of cruelty.
Shen Weitian's face gradually turned darker.
When it was getting dark, the father and son came out of the imperial study.
The late emperor's death was fake, in order to announce to the world the news that Chen Yunheng had murdered his father.
Father Lu felt relieved and was just waiting for the return of Lu Jinyue and Shen Yunxiao.
Speaking of them, after sleeping for a whole day, they finally woke up at dusk.
Lu Jinyue fell asleep with her head resting on his arm. She opened her eyes and her gaze fell on his face which was so close to her.
She woke up, and Shen Yunxiao woke up too.
After a good rest, you will naturally feel better.
She stretched herself lazily, then pecked Shen Yunxiao's lips lightly.
"Has anyone told you not to mess with a man who just woke up?" Shen Yunxiao swallowed subconsciously, his eyes darkening slightly.
Lu Jinyue dared to bet that she definitely had no such intention, she just wanted to express her joy.
Before Shen Yunxiao transformed into a ferocious beast, Lu Jinyue quickly got dressed and called Xiaoshuang in to put on makeup.
Xiaoshuang was just an ordinary maid and was recruited into the Prince's Mansion only a month later.
He has an ordinary appearance and a timid personality, but the advantage is that he doesn't talk much and doesn't easily attract other people's attention.
People usually treat her as invisible.
Lu Jinyue noticed this and thought Xiaoshuang was harmless, so she decided to keep her.
It’s just that Xiaoshuang was originally the daughter of a farmer’s family. She entered the prince’s mansion because she couldn’t make ends meet.
Now that the Prince’s Mansion is gone, Xiaoshuang wants to go home.
Lu Jinyue naturally had no objection. After asking her to help with the washing, she gave her some silver and let her go back to reunite with her family.
During the three days in Huaizhou, Shen Yunxiao made drastic reforms, abolished all the laws that did not comply with the regulations of the Da Rui Dynasty, and re-activated the decrees of the Da Rui Dynasty.
Some modifications were made based on actual conditions.
When the notice was posted, some people still didn't believe it.
But when Shen Yunxiao appeared at the gate of the county government office and explained everything, the whole nation rejoiced.
Only then did they realize that Shen Yunxiao was not as cruel and unreasonable as Shen Yunheng said, and he did not like to kill people at every turn.
He's just a little cold-tempered.
It turns out that their sons and grandsons don't have to rush into joining the army rashly.
This is just to satisfy Shen Yunheng's selfish desire!
If he wants to return to the capital and take back the throne, so many people will have to sacrifice for him. If he becomes the emperor, that will be the beginning of the suffering of the entire Da Rui Dynasty!
The couple then went to see Shen Yunheng in the cell where he was imprisoned.
The bullet in the thigh had not been removed, and the wound was already red and oozing pus, looking a bit disgusting.
His leg is completely broken.
Shen Yunxiao couldn't help but sneer.
"What are you laughing at?" Shen Yunheng's face was pale, and he couldn't be fierce even if he wanted to.
"You don't know yet, right? Father is actually not dead at all!" Shen Yunxiao sat down, and the servants immediately heated up the tea and brought it up.
As soon as these words came out, Shen Yunheng's face froze and his hands trembled slightly.
He was the one who poisoned my father himself, how could he not die?
"Are you surprised?" Shen Yunxiao made a cup of tea for Lu Jinyue, and the dark cell was filled with the aroma of tea.
Then comes my own cup.
Shen Yunheng was both angry and frightened, and as his blood surged, a trace of blood actually flowed from the corner of his mouth.
His throat rolled and he swallowed it all.
"Thanks to you, although my father saved his life, his legs were crippled. But you only lost one leg, which is a win no matter how you look at it."
Shen Yunxiao took a sip of the tea in the cup and frowned, "This tea should be stale tea from last year. It's not fragrant."
Lu Jinyue didn't taste anything, they were all about the same.
But she was curious, if the late emperor was not dead, where was he?
Is it hidden?
