Chapter six hundred and ninetieth reputation of gentleness

After a busy day, Shi Chongwei couldn't help but yawn when he returned to the palace to relax. Xiong Zhiren originally wanted to discuss with him about expanding his reputation. Seeing this, he stood up and said, "Your Highness has a good rest. You will return to the East Palace earlier after the court meeting tomorrow. The old minister and Lord Jiang have something to discuss with you."

At the second day of the reign of the court, the left prime minister Kong Sheng asked about Suxi County. The prince briefly described it. The final result must be reported to the emperor after Dali Temple asked about the case before reporting it to the emperor for handling. All the ministers said it was good.

Right Prime Minister Ma Suizhen asked Dali Temple Minister Lu Liangzhen, and said, "Mr. Lü, I don't know that the person who handles the case in Dali Temple can repay you."

"Reporting to Ma Xiang, the case is complicated. There are too many people who come to complain after hearing the news. I am afraid that there will be a result in a short period of time." Lu Liangzhen said respectfully.

In fact, the officials of Dali Temple have sent a secret report, and the cases listed are densely covered with dozens of papers. Lu Liangzhen is preparing to disperse the court and attach the secret report to the emperor in his secret memorial. The Shi Shen case is of great importance, and how to close the case will be waited for the emperor's ruling.

Shi Chongwei remembered that Xiong Zhiren asked him to go back to the East Palace earlier to discuss something. He stood up and looked at King An of Chu who was sitting quietly on the side, and said, "The King of Gu still has a step ahead. The father of Shi Shen's case attaches great importance to it. The Three Courts should discuss a solution to the treatment. The emperor is currently working on the Ministry of Justice. You might as well spend more time. After the result, he will tell Gu together with the Three Courts, and Gu will report to his father again."

Shi Chongjie cursed in his heart that he was watching the fun, but the prince wanted to drag him into the water. However, the reason the prince found could not be refuted, so he had to get up and say respectfully: "Yes."

The East Palace, Zhan Shi Mansion, Xiong Zhiren and Jiang Anyi chatted and laughed.

Early in the morning, Xiong Zhiren came to the East Palace and saw Jiang Anyi and said with a smile: "Mr. Jiang, I admired a good article I wrote yesterday. Xiong admired it and was impressed by the words of loyalty, filial piety, benevolence, righteousness, politeness, wisdom, and courage to let the prince be deaf and shocked, which made those ill-hearted little ones who were ill-hearted. Xiong admired it and thought it could also add a gentle name to the prince, and was eager to discuss it with Anyi."

When Shi Chongwei returned to the Eastern Palace, Xiong Zhiren and Jiang Anyi had already made a plan. Xiong Zhiren said: "Your Highness's work in Suxi County is remarkable, the emperor praised it, and the ministers praised it, and the prince's reputation among the people will also rise. When the prince was in the court meeting, the old minister and Lord Jiang drafted a memorial, and the prince's memorial may add some highlights."

After taking the joint work of Xiong Zhiren and Jiang Anyi, Shi Chongwei opened it and watched it for a while. After reading it, he smiled happily. He picked up a pen and signed his name at the end of the memorial, took out the seal he carried with him and stamped it, and then ordered: "Send this money to the Zhengshi Hall quickly, and let the Zhengshi Hall give it to his father together with today's memorial."

In Yanshan Villa, Shi Fang was very worried. After taking lunch, he came to the study and waited for the memorials sent by the court. Although as Jiang Anyi said, it was Shi Shen's case that he failed the emperor's kindness first and was a sin, but no one could be ruthless, and the scene of falling into the water and being rescued often came to his mind, which made Shi Fangzhen feel upset. The prince ordered Dali Temple to investigate the case and Longwei to investigate the property. He should be rewarded. He wanted to see what crimes Shi Shen's family committed and whether he could be punished with ease.

Liu Weiguo was also uneasy. He was afraid that Shi Shen would be confused when he was old and that his life would be tainted. He was worried about gains and losses, and the little eunuch was shocked.

I was surprised to find that Eunuch Liu, who had always been as stable as Mount Tai, stretched his neck from time to time and looked at the door of the study.

The footsteps finally rang out. The eunuch brought the memorial sent by the Zhengshi Hall. Liu Weiguo took it and put it on the table. Shi Fangzhen put the memorial from the Zhengshi Hall aside and signaled Liu Weiguo to open the two secret memorials. Liu Weiguo kept the key to the secret leather box. When he opened the lock, he saw that one of the two memorials was written by Longwei and the other was written by Lu Liangzhen, the minister of Dali Temple. There is no need to ask that these two secret memorials were all about the Shi Shenyi case.

Shi Fangzhen picked up Lu Liangzhen's memorial first, and after reading it for a moment, he slapped the table and said angrily: "It's so hateful." He grabbed the thick memorial on the table, trembled in his hand, and shouted at Liu Weiguo: "Liu Weiguo, this is what you call a cautious person. Take it and see what Shi Shen's family does, so as not to say that I don't care about my old feelings and be ungrateful."

Liu Weiguo quickly knelt down on the ground, and it was inconvenient to argue at this time, so he simply took Lu Liangzhen's secret comments and looked at them. Seeing the crimes listed by Lu Liangzhen in the memorial, Liu Weiguo's eyes were in tears and his heart was chilling. If these crimes were verified, the Shi family would have confiscated the family several times.

"Shi Shen is a talented person and is a good family for me. If I had known my Minister of Revenue, he would have asked him to do it." A "hehe" sound came from his ears. Liu Weiguo's scalp was numb. This was a sign of extreme excitement. I don't know what shocking words said in Long Wei's secret melody.

"Liu Weiguo, come and see if Long Wei retrieved Shi Shen's wealth. Such things that are not king or father-in-law have been killed, and my knife is dirty." Shi Fangzhen threw Long Wei's memorial "splash" in front of Liu Weiguo, and suddenly stood up, like a furious bull rushing around in the study.

"Long live to calm down. Shi Shen is guilty and will punish him. Since he is a king and law, he will be punished by rotten flesh and hurt. He will make it public and the people will only praise him. He will never lose his reputation." Liu Weiguo advised: "I am confused and misunderstood that the prince will believe in greed words. Please give him a punishment."

Liu Weiguo's repeated blows and eliminations made Shi Fang really calm down his anger. Shi Fangzhen stopped and sighed: "He wants to commit suicide, and I have no choice. But I have to remember the love he had back then. He is old and can't let him get a knife. I have to bear his sins for him. If the subjects in the world want to scold me, just scold me."

Liu Weiguo breathed a sigh of relief and picked up the memorials that Shi Fangzhen threw on the ground and looked carefully. The Longwei's memorials listed the property of Shi Shen's family: 18,000 taels of gold, more than 340,000 taels of silver, more than 56,000 stagnant of copper coins, four courtyards, thirteen shops, more than 640 hectares of land deeds, calligraphy and paintings, treasures, etc.

The long list is comparable to the crimes listed in Dali Temple. Liu Weiguo was secretly frightened. Compared with his private property, he was probably less than one-tenth of it. How much bloody and rotten is there in so much accumulation of so much wealth is unimaginable. No wonder Long live so angry.
