His Highness Prince Ning looked at Shen Haolin and Shen Cha. Seeing the solemn expressions on their faces, he raised his eyebrows slightly.
"What did you think of?"
"Something doesn't feel right, right, brother?"
"Yes!" Shen Haolin nodded, "General Chu probably didn't tell the truth to Master. The Chu family definitely did not die because of conspiracy. It should be that he committed other crimes that are similar to conspiracy, which led to this situation."
"Brother is right. Conspiracy and conspiracy are two different things. The degree of punishment is different."
"Is Xiaocha proficient in Liao laws?"
"I can't say I'm proficient, I know a thing or two." Shen Cha thought for a moment and looked at His Highness Prince Ning, "For some reason, I did study some laws of the Liao Kingdom. The laws of Liao clearly recorded that the conspiracy The crime of rebellion will punish the Nine Clan. Not only will the family of the person who rebelled not only leave no one alive, but also none of the relatives, friends, disciples, and neighbors will survive. Uncle Wang should know how many people will die in this execution of the Nine Clan, and how big it will be. Formation battle."
"I know." His Highness Prince Ning nodded, "Just the execution, which lasts day and night, will take seven days and seven nights, and basically the entire street will be destroyed."
"That's right." Shen Cha smiled, "But General Chu survived. If according to General Chu's statement, Bahankui himself is also among the nine tribes, and the in-law relationship is not so easy to escape. The crime of collusion and conspiracy is actually much lighter. Not only is there no consecutive crime, even the families of the so-called conspirators will not be implicated."
"Can it be spared?"
"Yes, according to the laws of the Liao Dynasty, both men and women under the age of ten can be exempted from crime, but they can also be exempted from death crimes, but they cannot escape from living crimes. Women are sent to the inner court as slaves, but they are not limited to menial work. If you are lucky, You can still become a female officer or a concubine. But the men live in the border areas and serve in the army. If they perform well, it is not impossible to be promoted to the position of General Chu."
“So, according to this standard, General Chu’s family should be treasonous rather than real.
"I'm just saying why it sounds so awkward. It turns out that this is the crux." Jin Miaomiao clapped his hands, "If Bahankui had the ability to set up such a big game, he wouldn't be huddled in that courtyard all his life. ”
"If we set up a trap to induce rebellion, we must communicate with the Yelu family. Which Yelu would agree to such a thing?" Shen Haolin sneered, "I'm afraid Bahankui will be beaten to death by Yelu if he just opens his mouth. ! Besides..." He paused for a moment, "With his status and background, can he catch Yelu's eyes? I'm afraid that even the most neglected young master of the Yelu family will not take him seriously. If you can’t see anyone, how can you do such a big game, right?”
"Yes, that's what it means." Shen Cha said immediately, "The most important point is that with the Yelu family's usual suspicion, even if the Bahan family has so many prime ministers and assistants, once there are signs of seizing the throne, , I’m afraid that if I don’t wait even a moment, the entire Bahan family will face the disaster of genocide! Uncle Wang, don’t forget, Bahan himself comes from Yelu, and the two families are of the same ancestry. What Yelu needs to guard against is not his origin. The Chu of the Xiao family comes from the nobles of our own family."

"Listening to what you said, it makes sense, but why did Xiao Chu lie about this matter?" His Highness Prince Ning looked at them with a smile, "There is no need to lie about such a matter, is there?"
"It's probably not a lie. Uncle Wang is right. He is not worthy of lying on this matter. I am more inclined to believe that he really doesn't know. After all, he was so young at the time and had no impression of any of this. Probably because he felt that the crime of confiscating the family and destroying the family was nothing but rebellion, so..." Seeing His Highness Prince Ning's smile become a little strange, Shen Cha was slightly startled, "Uncle Wang, what does this mean? Could it be me? Wrong idea?"
"Of course not, you are right." His Highness Prince Ning chuckled, "It seems I can't hide it from you."
"Hide it?" Shen Cha and Shen Haolin exchanged a look, both of them looked helpless, "Is Uncle Wang deliberately testing us?"
"It's not intentional, just to see if you can detect the problem here. In fact, Brother Qingruo spent a lot of effort to find out about the Chu family. We thought it was true before. It was treason, but I didn’t expect it to be as serious as I thought.”
"It's not that serious?" Shen Cha thought for a while, "The one who can mix the Chu family and the Yelu family should be the harem?"
"Correct answer!" His Highness Prince Ning touched his chin and nodded towards Shen Cha with a smile, "Actually, it was a fight between the concubines in the harem. The empress of the Chu family and the empress of the Bahan family were incompatible because of the competition for favor. But I heard that Bahan The one in the Chu family was more skilled. She was promoted to concubine two years after entering the palace, and she was pregnant. She firmly dominated the Chu family. The mother-in-law of the Chu family also did not show weakness. Although she did not take the initiative to provoke, she always met the two. The power is the same as fire and water. Later, I heard that the reason why the Chu family was convicted was that the mother-in-law of the Bahan family had a miscarriage. The reason for the miscarriage was that the mother-in-law of the Chu family pushed her into the pond." He spread his hands. , "Conspiracy to kill the prince is tantamount to conspiracy."
"Are you sure he is the prince?"
"Yes!" His Highness Prince Ning nodded, "After all, the Bahan family's wife is already eight months pregnant. She has been freezing a cup of tea in an ice cave for nine winters. Even adults can't bear it, let alone a child. .After this accident, the Bahan family’s wives will not be able to have children of their own in the future.” He looked at Shen Haolin and Shen Cha, “Although the King of Liao at that time did not care much about these concubines and was happy to watch them compete for favor, but If it harms his heirs, he can't just sit back and watch, so the Chu family is finished."
"General Chu thinks that the mother-in-law of the Bahan family may have done this on purpose to harm the mother-in-law of the Chu family and the Chu family?"
"Yes!" His Highness Prince Ning nodded, "After all, the Chu family is from the Xiao family. If no Xiao family's daughter marries into King Liao's harem, the Chu family's daughter from the Xiao family may become the only candidate for the queen. If we can kill him The daughter of the Chu family can make the King of Liao feel guilty, and the girl from the Bahan family can become the queen. However, unfortunately, their plan failed. Although the Chu family was gone, the King of Liao at that time could not help but feel guilty after this accident. , quickly won a daughter of the Xiao family and became the queen of the Liao Dynasty."
"This means losing both his wife and his troops. The Bahan family failed to take charge of King Liao's harem, and instead created an enemy for themselves. It's really not worth the loss."
