"The Shen family has great military exploits, and its prestige among the people is no less than that of Xie San. If Xie San wants to ascend the throne, he will definitely win over the Shen family. The Shen family has never liked the disputes in the court, but you are completely devoted to him. Now you are He doesn’t seem to be as obsessed as the rumors say.”
"If you want to attack Xie San, you need to attack his weak points. The more the other party cares about something and the more obsessed he is with it, use this as bait. He will be less defensive about you. This is a good thing. You must not show your edge in front of him. , he can’t figure you out, but you know his weaknesses.”
Jiang Yubai analyzed these pros and cons very clearly. He usually talks little and never talks too much about things that can be summarized briefly.
Xie San disliked her so much and wanted to marry her at all costs, just for power. In his previous life, he had just ascended the throne and his power was unstable. He worked hard to build a reputation as a virtuous king, and he was very popular among the people.
Shen Zhiyi relied on the Shen family, and the military power was in the hands of the Shen family. Without the support of Governor Jiang, Xie Shaoheng made every effort to keep the Shen family's military power in his own hands.
No wonder he looks forward to dying on the battlefield...
As long as his ugly face is exposed to the public and the forces behind him turn against him one after another, he will be a piece of cake on the chopping board.
Shen Zhiyi lowered his eyelashes and the impatience in his heart was calmed down. He didn't know what Jiang Yubai's plan was. Even if he was involved with his master's sect, he didn't have to go through the troubled waters himself.
"Professor Jiangdu taught me these things, aren't you afraid that the disciples will starve to death?"
Jiang Yubai knew that she was on guard against him, so he said with a little contempt: "Don't be afraid, you can't learn as fast as me."
Shen Zhiyi: "..."
What a bummer.
The two of them walked towards the training ground. Shen Xuan was competing with his brother. Shen Zhiyun shot out five arrows first. The first arrow hit the bullseye, and the second arrow missed the eagle feather of the previous arrow. Go through it, split it into two halves and hit the bull's-eye, and repeat.
"Young General is awesome!" After saying this, Qi Chen stood up and shouted, regardless of the eyes of the people around him, "Young General, you are always hitting the target!"
Shen Xuan caught a glimpse of the audience shouting loudly, "Tsk, his archery skills are not inferior to Shen Zhiyun's, and he also imitated his example, hitting every target with perfect accuracy."
When the last arrow was fully drawn and the bow was ready to be shot, Shen Zhiyi's figure happened to be reflected in the slit of his eyes.
The humiliation just now, together with the sighs of the people around him, exploded in his mind. He moved his bow and arrow slightly and pointed it at Shen Zhiyi.
Shen Zhiyun immediately noticed something was wrong and looked in the direction of his arrow.
not good! Interesting!
Shen Xuan curled his lips evilly and snorted coldly, "I'll see how you can save me." As he let go of the bowstring, the arrows flew out with a swish. The people around him had no time to stop him. Jiang Yubai grabbed Shen Zhiyi's sleeve with a single lunge. , pulled him behind him, held the Star Slashing Sword in his left hand and deflected the arrow.
Why is it Jiang Yubai's Yama?
The originally noisy shouts of the crowd also died down at this moment.
Shen Xuan knew that he had caused a big disaster. He was so frightened that his legs froze in place and he did not dare to move. His eyesight turned black.
The consequences of messing with this Yama can't be described in one word.
It can be said that no matter what the reason is, as long as Jiang Yubai is offended, it is the original sin.
He originally just wanted to give Shen Zhiyi a small punishment, telling him to curb his arrogance and not be too aggressive. As the eldest brother, shouldn't he teach his sister a lesson?
Shen Zhiyun rushed to Shen Zhiyi, grabbed her arms and looked around her up and down to make sure she was not injured, and then the stone in her heart finally fell to the ground.
Shen Qinghe saw what was happening in front of her. She didn't have a good impression of Shen Xuan who was protecting her. She was so stupid that she couldn't even hurt Shen Zhiyi, yet she got involved in such a bad thing.
An eyesore, an eyesore.
"Shen Hong! Is this how you usually discipline?"
Shen Hong is the eldest member of the Shen family, and serves as the right magistrate in the court. After so many years of hard work, he is still only a junior rank, how can he dare to provoke this giant Buddha.
"You know you're wrong, go back and teach your traitor a lesson." Shen Hong was hunched over and didn't even dare to raise his head. Jiang Yubai's cold tone suppressed him.
"Master Shen, have you never thought about what would happen if he hurt this governor? What kind of crime would it be to assassinate the court official?"
"I, the Governor, come from a family of civil servants. I hate fighting and killing. Naturally, my martial arts skills are not as good as Mr. Shen's."
Everyone:......
Shen Zhiyi:......
He is really a scoundrel, "I hate fighting and killing the most", luckily he can say this.
Aren't you ashamed?
In just a few minutes, Shen Xuan felt that a long time had passed.
He tried his best to squeeze out his tears and stepped forward, pretending to be concerned and crying: "Sister Yi'er, Governor Jiang, are you okay? I'm not as skilled as others and I accidentally scared you."
He thinks his acting skills are perfect, and he pretends to be pitiful and innocent, just like Shen Qinghe.
No, Shen Qinghe acted much better than him.
"Since Mr. Shen wants to punish you, I have always loved the beauty of adults, so I will punish you on this stage."
this......
"What's wrong, Mr. Shen? Are you lying to the Governor about what you just said?"
"I don't dare, old minister."
Jiang Yubai thought of a tortured and humiliating punishment. He picked up the arrow he shot and handed it to Shen Hong. He asked Shen Xuan to kneel in front of him and imitate the barking of a dog. When he barked, Shen Hong would use the arrow. Prick it.
until he is satisfied.
"Jiang Yubai, you are really bullying me!" Shen Xuan raised his eyebrows slightly and asked with courage.
"Yes," Jiang Yubai seemed to be satisfied with this evaluation, "Then do you dare to disobey?"
Jiang Yubai was known to be cruel and ruthless, and he did not dare to step forward to plead for him.
People who usually dislike Shen Xuan feel happy in their hearts, Governor Jiang, although you are handsome and cruel, your method of punishing a bitch is really refreshing.
Shen Hong put his foot on Shen Xuan's knees, lifted his neck by the collar, and stepped on his face. Veins popped up in Shen Xuan's arms. He swallowed his unwillingness and humiliation and knelt on the ground, imitating the barking of a dog.
He hated it, wishing he could have fired the arrow harder just now. Even if it hurt Shen Zhiyi, he would not feel so disadvantaged.
Even if you die, you have to have someone to support you!
The eldest son of the Shen family, Shen Hezhi, stood in the audience and stared indifferently at his brother being humiliated like this. Shen Hezhi was the eldest son of the Shen family with the best official career. He was well-educated and well-educated. He guessed sixty-six lanterns in a row during the Lantern Festival. He wrote lantern riddles, drunkenly drank countless poems, and became famous in one fell swoop.
Idiot, act like this, where can I put my brother's face?
If he offends Governor Jiang, he is afraid that his career will be hindered in the future.
Shen Qinghe squeezed out tears and came to him, deliberately crying with worry on his face, "It's all my fault. Brother Shen Xuan is the one...my sister has a good relationship with Governor Jiang and doesn't even know how to plead for mercy."
Shen Qinghe deliberately used the word "Governor Jiang" very strongly, just because he was determined to let outsiders hear it.
She, a woman who had not yet left the government, was actually linked to the name of a foreigner.
Jiang Yubai didn't have the time and patience to listen to his dog barking here, so he squatted in front of him and commented with interest, "If I hadn't asked you to bark, I would have thought someone's dog had run up here."
These words are extremely insulting.
The old eunuch in the palace quickly came to report, "Your Majesty, someone is complaining at the gate of the palace."
"Go to the Yamen to complain about your grievances, why come to my palace?"
"There are really no rules. Are all the guards in the palace just for a living? Why don't you drive them away quickly?"
The old eunuch pressed his forehead with some distress. If this kind of thing happened on weekdays, who would have to go to the imperial city? "It was Boss Song from the pawnshop who came here. He handed over this phoenix hairpin to the slave, and shouted that Miss Shen Er would not pay back the money she owed, slave. I can’t make the decision, so that’s why…”
How could the gift of the imperial edict end up in a pawn shop? This phoenix hairpin was given to the legitimate daughter of the Shen family a few days ago.
The Shen family is so brave...
"Pass on my decree to summon the head of the Song Dynasty to the palace."
Boss Song cried and crawled all the way and kept shouting "I'm wronged". He knelt down in front of Emperor Jing, his face stained with tears. He handed Emperor Jing a written note, which was the imperial edict for Shen Qinghe's credit transaction. of credentials.
"Be bold!"
Shen Qinghe knelt in front of Emperor Jing, her head was racing and she frowned, taking advantage of her current weakness, "Your Majesty, I don't know what's going on, I... I don't know."
Too many words lead to mistakes, so she could only deny it outright.
Emperor Jing Long Yan was furious. Do you really think I am a three-year-old child? To fool me with these nonsense words, Emperor Jing threw these incriminating evidences and hit Shen Qinghe in the face, and the corners of his eyes were broken by the huge impact.
She trembled: "My sister allowed me to wear these jewelry."
It is also smart to avoid the important and take the light and shirk all the responsibilities.
Shen Zhiyi knelt in the palace and said, "Your Majesty, I have never let her take the gift out. Your Majesty's reward is an honor for me. How can I give up something that I don't treat as a treasure because of a few bags of money?"
"As a sister, seeing that my sister likes her so much, I let her choose on her own."
Emperor Jing had heard a little bit about her protecting his sister, so he was a little too indulgent when he saw her today.
Shen Qinghe's rhetoric seemed particularly desolate and thin when compared with the solid evidence in her hand. She felt fear in her heart. She, an idiot, dared to do this to herself. It was useless to complain, and she had to deal with the present.
No matter how much she talks, how can Emperor Jing trust her?
"My daughter would never let my sister sell the imperial gift. Please ask the Holy Spirit for a clear warning."
Shen Zhiyi dressed simply today, and the hairpin on her head was given to her by Jiang Yubai just now.
Jiang Yunshu was still angry. This drama suddenly made her interested. She wished that the matter would be bigger. When she saw that Shen Qinghe was wearing an imperial gift on her head, she didn't even have one. How could a concubine with no reason deserve it?
"What's that on your head?"
"Your sister is a legitimate daughter after all, and she carefully collects His Majesty's rewards. How dare you, a concubine, be so presumptuous!"
Everyone's eyes followed the direction of Jiang Yunshu's fingers. Shen Qinghe was wearing a golden phoenix-shaped hairpin on his head, with several precious rubies inlaid on it. It was the centenary gift prepared by the late queen to Shen Zhiyi.
The late queen... a name that no one in the palace dared to mention, Shen Qinghe pulled out his scales in front of everyone.
"Bold! Shen Qinghe, what crime do you deserve?"
"I know that I made a mistake, and I beg your Majesty to give me a chance to make amends."
The crime of selling the imperial edict should be punished. Jiang Yubai saw that Shen Zhiyi was not ruthless enough, "Just now, I saw that Mr. Shen Xuan and Miss Shen Er are on good terms. Why don't you go and accompany him to be punished?"
Shen Qinghe's pupils dilated, and his kneeling body trembled and shrank back, "Director Jiang, I am a woman, how can I be insulted like this?"
Jiang Yubai didn't accept her attempt to pretend to be pitiful and sympathetic.
"Then according to Miss Shen's opinion, what should be the punishment?"
