Although Prime Minister Shen's motives were not particularly clear, given his position at the time, he certainly wouldn't have given himself away if he wanted to find out some false evidence.
Moreover, as Feng Mo Ran said, there is no possibility of eliminating dissidents.
Because at that time, the Prince of Libei's achievements overshadowed the emperor, and almost all the civil and military officials were afraid that the general would rebel, so Feng Guche ordered the execution of the general's entire family.
The Prince of Libei is different from Prime Minister Shen.
The King of Libei wielded far too much military power. Thinking of this, Feng Guche would wake up in the middle of the night every night.
I'm really having trouble sleeping and eating.
Prime Minister Shen's current position is no small matter.
What Feng Guche found strange was that ever since he had mentioned to Prime Minister Shen that Empress Shen Biyun had been imprisoned in the Cold Palace, Prime Minister Shen seemed to have never brought it up again.
Perhaps out of guilt, or perhaps to avoid upsetting himself, Prime Minister Shen had already imprisoned his own daughter in the cold palace, but he acted as if he didn't care at all.
Feng Guche glanced at the Prime Minister, then looked at Feng Mozhan beside him.
"This...my son, what do you think should be done about this?"
The Second Prince, Feng Mozhan, clasped his hands in a fist salute and spoke respectfully once again.
“Father, I believe that this matter should be handled according to the law. If this is indeed the case, then Prime Minister Shen has committed a heinous crime.”
"Such things have been recorded in the books left by our ancestors. The books say that the only way for the king to deal with this was to strip the prime minister of his position and throw him into prison."
"The Shen family is truly despicable. For their own selfish desires, they actually framed loyal officials. They must be severely punished to give the court an explanation and the whole world an answer!"
Although Feng Mo Ran spoke of her feelings in a low voice, her expression was extremely annoyed, and her tone was filled with resentment.
However, Feng Guche still had some concerns.
"After all, he is the Prime Minister. This matter is of utmost importance. If Prime Minister Shen is punished, the court may descend into chaos."
As soon as Feng Guche finished speaking, Feng Mozhan, who was standing next to him, began to persuade him.
"Father Emperor ordered me to investigate the wrongful case, and now the truth has been revealed. The reason you were blinded by a single leaf is entirely due to this Prime Minister Shen. If he is not punished, the Prince of Libei will not be able to clear his name."
Feng Guche sighed, unable to decide what to do for the moment.
Feng Guche remained silent, so Feng Mozhan stared at him without moving, as if she was waiting for his answer today.
"Let me think about it some more. Let's leave it at that. I'll have someone inform you once I've decided what to do. You may leave now."
"Father..."
Before Feng Mo Ran could say anything more, Feng Gu Che waved his hand at her, and Feng Mo Ran had no choice but to retreat.
Back at the manor, Feng Mo Ran no longer concealed her emotions. As soon as she stepped into the main hall, she began to unleash her fury.
Despite all the hard work he had put in for so long and the elaborate trap he had laid, his father still hadn't been able to make up his mind to punish Prime Minister Shen.
Feng Mo Ran was somewhat frustrated, but at the same time she knew that if the Crown Prince was freed and Prime Minister Shen was given a chance to catch his breath, they would inevitably launch a fierce counterattack, and then she would be at a disadvantage.
Now, he and Feng Xilan have reached a point of irreconcilable conflict; to put it more bluntly, it's a matter of life or death.
