Everyone go back, I'm leaving! "
Song Jue waved his hands to Shen Haolin and the others who were escorting him out, and walked away slowly and leisurely with Ying Shisan and the two guards.
Watching their figures gradually disappear, Shen Haolin and the others entered the gate of the Duke's Mansion and walked slowly towards the study.
Returning to the study, Song Qiyun casually threw the cloak he had taken off on the ground and threw himself directly towards the soft couch by the window.
"So tired!" Song Qiyun rolled around on the soft couch holding a pillow, complaining to Shen Haolin and Shen Cha who came in after him, "If I had known that I would be so tired when I came back, I would have given Brother Xiaotian's chaise longue. I brought it back. How comfortable it would be to lie on the chaise longue when I read the files every day!"
"I thought I would have never come back if I had known I was so tired, but it turns out I was thinking about the imperial concubine chair!" Shen Cha helped Mei Lin and Mei Zhu tidy up, then came over and touched Song Qiyun's forehead, "I'm just too sleepy. Get some sleep, it won’t be too late to have lunch when you wake up.”
"I'm not sleepy, I'm just a little tired. I want to lie down." Song Qiyun lay on the soft couch and looked at Shen Cha who continued to look through the files, "I think Brother Huang's suggestion is still very good, Sister Xiaocha, no Are you planning to adopt it?”
"No plan!" Shen Cha shook his head gently, "At least I don't have this idea at the moment."
"What are your thoughts? What are your plans? Did I miss something important?" Bai Meng pushed the door open and came in, stopping Merlin who was about to come over to get him a cloak. "Have you had lunch? I'm starving. Can I go first?" Can you prepare something for me to cushion?"
"Here!" Merlin took a plate of mung bean cake, "It was originally prepared for Your Majesty. Your Majesty was sent away by the Queen Mother before you could eat it. Commander, please eat it to satisfy your stomach first." She looked at Shen Haolin and Shen Cha, "Then I'll tell the dining room to prepare for dinner?"
"Go!"
"What were you talking about just now?" After washing his hands first, Bai Meng approached Song Qiyun with a plate of mung bean cake, "Let's talk and listen."
Song Qiyun sat up and saw that Bai Meng was enjoying the meal, so he took a piece himself and told Song Jue's suggestion while chewing.
"This..." Bai Meng took a sip of the hot tea sent by Mei Zhu, "His Majesty's suggestion is indeed a good one. If you follow what he said, it will indeed be cruel enough, and it will indeed relieve your anger, but It has no effect on our demands.”
"That's what the Commander-in-Chief said." Seeing Song Qiyun's confused look, Shen Cha put down the file in his hand and explained, "According to His Majesty's approach, we can have a moment of pleasure and appreciate or witness how Wan Yanping killed her. This miserable life witnessed how she brought it upon herself and got the retribution she deserved. But this is not what we want. What we need now is a person who is completely sane and has clear thinking, who can solve Aunt Xue's case. Wanyan Ping explained the ins and outs very clearly and in great detail.”
"Does she have to tell?" Song Qiyun snatched the cup from Bai Meng's hand and took a sip. "Now there is so much evidence that can prove that this case is a forgery. My aunt was wrongly accused. We can just overturn the case."
"It's not that easy." Shen Haolin shook his head gently, "Seeing the current level of the file, each of us knows it very well, and we all know that Aunt Xue dedicated her life for a very special reason. Life and fame, and we also speculate that this special reason has a lot to do with Aunt Xue, otherwise, she would not make this sacrifice for unrelated people. But we must be clear, if not Wanyanping sent her agent to carry out the so-called informant, falsely accusing Aunt Xue of having a so-called ulterior secret with Prince Wanyan. This case did not exist at all, and the tragedy would not have happened. Therefore, Wanyanping is the source and the target of our investigation."
"Brother is right." Shen Cha sighed softly, "Although the secret is still a cover-up, there will be another method, another candidate, and the result will not be like this. So, completely Yan Ping must take responsibility for this. In addition, Qi Yun said just now that we have so much evidence in our hands that can prove that the case is forged. If the case can be overturned directly, it is not very accurate. At present Judging from the situation, even if we have so much evidence, there is nothing we can do to reverse the case."
"Why?" Song Qiyun frowned, "It proves that these evidences and testimonies were false. This case was a scam from beginning to end. Wouldn't it be overturned?"
"How should we prove that the evidence and testimonies are false?" Shen Cha smiled bitterly, "Should we find the witnesses who provided testimonies and evidence back then? Should we let them testify and admit that they had all kinds of reasons? For such an unspeakable reason, why did he make false testimony without conscience? By the way, he confessed the person who instigated them back then. Is this sequence correct? "
"No...that's right!" Song Qiyun nodded blankly, "Then...that's not possible?"
"The people who instigated them back then were most likely the late emperor and his close confidants. No one would come forward and confess, so don't think about it. What's more serious, we can't find any testimonies from that year. No one can be found."
"Can't find the witness?" Song Qiyun felt his head buzzing and looked at Shen Cha in disbelief, "Why can't the person be found? This case hasn't been in the past few years, right? According to the original records, The witnesses are not very old, so why...can't they find anyone?"
"We have sent people to look for it for a long time. The witnesses who provided evidence and testimonies either died due to various reasons or disappeared mysteriously. Even..." Shen Cha sighed softly, "Even... If there is no such person, it means that even the witnesses are false.”
"This...this is too...excessive!" Song Qiyun didn't know what to say, "Father, he...is really impeccable in his work. But why did he do this? Isn't this going to increase our chances of overturning the case? Is it difficult?”
"The late Emperor knew that we would definitely reverse the case, and he also knew that we would definitely find witnesses to reverse the confession, but he blocked this road in advance in order to let us concentrate on dealing with Wanyan Zongcheng and Wanyan Ping. That huge secret , even if we know about it, we can't see it. Therefore, we must be convinced that this unjust case is a conspiracy of the Jin people. It was planned by Wanyan Zongcheng and Wanyanping and his daughter to destroy the Shen family army and sow the relationship between the monarch and his ministers in Daxia. , this basin of dirty water must be poured on Wanyanping." Shen Cha pinched the bridge of his nose and leaned on Shen Haolin's shoulder, "So, we must keep a sober Wanyanping. Let her narrate the whole process in full as a basis for us to overturn the verdict. At the same time, this is also a condition of our agreement with Wanyanxi to help him clear the name of his brother Wang and restore his brother's reputation."
"I thought it would be easy to overturn the case with the files. I was happy for my cousin for a long time, but I didn't expect..." After listening to the analysis from his brothers and sisters, Song Qiyun hugged the pillow and started rolling around on the soft couch again. "My cousin is really miserable. It's better not to tell him such tragic news for now, lest he feel uncomfortable again."
"We must hide it from him and not reveal anything at all. His Highness must keep his mouth shut and never let anything slip. Otherwise..." Bai Meng grabbed Song Qiyun who almost rolled off the couch, "He knows the truth is like this. Yes, I will definitely rush back to the capital at all costs and rush to the imperial mausoleum to question His Highness Prince Ning."
"Oops, I almost forgot something important!" Song Qiyun struggled to sit up, slapped his forehead hard, took out a small paper tube from his arms, and waved to Shen Haolin and Shen Cha, "Brother Emperor I found this thing in the secret room of the royal study two days ago, Uncle Ning is still Uncle Ning."
"Prince Ning is still Prince Ning?" Shen Haolin and Shen Cha looked at each other, "It means... he has not been expelled or demoted to a commoner?"
