As a key subject of supervision by the imperial court, there are naturally many detectives in Suiyang City.
There was such a big fuss today, so of course it was impossible to hide it from the spies.
Not only were the people in the city panicked, but when the news came back to Chang'an City, even the emperor was silent for a long time.
King Liang did indeed go too far in this matter. The emperor only thought that he was having trouble with himself for the various behaviors that King Liang had shown some time ago, but he didn't take it seriously at all.
But King Liang made such a big splash this time that he directly put South Korea on death row, which made the emperor feel that something was wrong.
The emperor actually had a very good impression of Han Anguo and Zhang Yu, especially Han Anguo.
Not only was he knowledgeable and talented, but he was also able to withstand pressure at critical moments and urged King Liang to fight to the end no matter what.
Zhang Yu even risked his own life and commanded the army in many bloody battles. In the end, he took the lead and suffered more than thirty stab wounds all over his body, but he still kept fighting in the end.
This time the Six Kings Rebellion was completely put down, but what did King Liang do now?
Two people who had made such great contributions to the country were actually thrown into death row by him just because of a few words of advice, and the other was whipped so hard that he still cannot get out of bed.
"What do you think about this matter?"
After a while, Liu Heng slowly put down the memorial in his hand, and then looked at Wang Deyi who was standing aside.
"What did your Majesty say? This old slave is a bit dim-sighted and his ears are not working very well. I really didn't hear clearly what your Majesty just said..."
Wang Deyi immediately lowered his head and then apologized to the emperor.
"Bah! You old man, are you acting in front of me? Are your eyes and ears still working? If there is any trouble in Chang'an City, which one can be hidden from your eyes? , are you pretending to be confused here now?"
Liu Heng glared at him angrily, but he also knew in his heart that Wang Deyi was deliberately avoiding suspicion.
This is a matter involving King Liang. King Liang is not only the son of the emperor, but also the prince of the Han Dynasty.
Whether it was public or private, Wang Deyi did not want to get involved in this matter.
If you lean towards the prince, you will offend King Liang in the future. If you lean towards King Liang, you will offend the prince in the future. He cannot afford to offend either side.
He is just an old eunuch. Although he looks majestic now, he knows it very well in his heart.
Once the emperor is gone, he will be nothing more than a helpless old eunuch.
So at this time, he should just close his eyes and plug his ears. As for whether the emperor will be angry or not, that is no longer important.
He has been with the emperor for many years, and he still has this certainty in his heart. The current emperor is merciful and will not kill him in any case.
But he might not be able to decide the prince and Liang Wang.
"Your Majesty, Mrs. Shen wants to see your Majesty!"
Just when Wang Deyi was giggling and pretending to be crazy, a little eunuch's voice suddenly sounded outside the door.
"What is she doing here at this time? Let her in!"
Liu Heng couldn't help but frowned, but he still didn't stop him.
Seeing the look from the emperor, Wang Deyi immediately lowered his head and exited the hall with all the eunuchs and maids serving him.
"Your Majesty, you have to make the decision for me!"
What Liu Heng didn't expect was that Mrs. Shen cried as soon as she entered the palace. Without saying a word, she threw herself into his arms.
"What's wrong with you? Why are you crying like this?"
Seeing his beloved woman crying like this in his arms, Liu Heng comforted her and asked in a low voice.
"Your Majesty, I am incompetent and have not been able to give birth to a son and a half daughter for Your Majesty until now! As you know, I entered the palace at the age of fourteen, and there is only one brother and one sister left in the family!"
Seeing the emperor's gentle words of comfort, Mrs. Shen immediately began to climb up the pole, wiping her tears and whispering nonsense.
"Why are you talking about this so politely? You failed to give birth to a boy and a half girl. This is actually my fault. The government is so complicated that it has exhausted my health. Don't I blame you too? ?”
When talking about his son's affairs, Liu Heng felt somewhat guilty.
These concubines around him have been with him for many years, but in the end, the queen is the only one who can leave him a son.
This was also the softest thorn in his heart. Today, being picked up so gently by Mrs. Shen, the emperor felt a little guilty.
In addition, some time ago, Mrs. Shen's plan to adopt someone else's child into her lap was disrupted by Liu Deng, and the emperor felt even more guilty about him.
"This is my concubine's bad luck. She is really not qualified to leave a prince or grandson for your majesty. This concubine admitted it. However, my brother just sent a letter. My only nephew was forcibly raped by His Highness Prince Liang. He was recruited into the army and was beaten to death by His Highness Prince Liang in the army a few days ago!"
When Mrs. Shen said this, she was already crying.
But the speaker has no intention, and the listener has intention.
The emperor was also excited all of a sudden, and immediately understood the purpose of Mrs. Shen's visit...
"Of course there is military law in this army, but did he violate any military law?"
Liu Heng asked calmly.
"I just heard that it was the domestic history of Liang who carried a coffin to the King of Liang to ask for an audience. The King of Liang was so angry that he was directly thrown into death row. By the way, all the soldiers guarding the gate were beaten with a hundred military sticks. I My nephew’s body was weak and he couldn’t withstand the torture, so he was beaten to death by His Highness Prince Liang!”
When Mrs. Shen said this, she started crying again.
Liu Heng's expression began to become cloudy and uncertain...
"Ridiculous! Come on, please go and ask the Prime Minister to come over!"
After half a stick of incense had passed, Liu Heng slammed the table angrily, and then shouted directly outside.
"You go down first, I will make the decision on this matter for you! As a prince of the Han Dynasty, how can you do such a thing? It is the duty of a minister to advise him. Han Anguo carried a coffin and died to remonstrate. This is obviously a big deal. How could a loyal and filial minister be so humiliated by him?"
Seeing Liu Heng's face as cold as frost, Mrs. Shen's goal had been achieved, so she could only cry sadly, then bowed to the emperor and left...
The imperial palace of the Han Dynasty had always been a sieve leaking air from everywhere.
What's more, Mrs. Shen had originally intended to publicize this matter.
In less than half an hour, the news that Han Anguo carried a coffin and died to protest, but was instead sentenced to death row, had spread throughout Chang'an City...
