+ "What's the matter, Your Majesty?"
Seeing Shen Yunzhou walking towards him, Wang Jie's first reaction was to subconsciously take half a step back.
He couldn't figure out what Shen Yunzhou was trying to do to protect Liu Shen now, but what he knew was that he and Liu Shen were undoubtedly on opposite sides, so what Shen Yunzhou was doing now...
"You guys go down first. Leave this to me. If there are any mistakes here, the lonely king will naturally apologize to the emperor brother, and it has nothing to do with you."
Shen Yunzhou waved his hand and motioned for the others to retreat. Seeing this, the Dali Temple Minister did not hesitate to say anything. He took a deep look at Shen Yunzhou and Liu Shen who was waiting for trial, and then took everyone else away. Suddenly, only Shen Yunzhou and three others were left in the entire interrogation room.
"Wang Yushi, I won't beat around the bush. You are also a loyal minister who has been through two dynasties, and the lonely king will not hide it. I have got the news that the Huangquan faction in Bingzhou and the Liu family in Bingzhou are plotting a rebellion, and the informant is Liu Shen’s son Liu Yu.”
Shen Yunzhou said to Wang Jie straight to the point, and then ignored him who was stunned by the sudden news and continued:
"This time I came to protect Liu Shen. Firstly, it was to make them put down their guard, so that we could use their plan to destroy this gang of rebellious officials. Secondly, Liu Shen really didn't know that the four million taels of silver had been stolen by Bingzhou. He swallowed them all, and Bingzhou did not tell him the news. At least during the time when it was sent to Bingzhou, Liu Shen did his duty. The stack of paper was just sent by the king's cronies. "
When Shen Yunzhou said this, his face did not turn red and his heart did not beat, as if it was true.
Where did the evidence of cronies come from? It was all based on the records of Youjun City Gate and a few files brought over by Liu Yu, and it turned into such a decent evidence book.
Since the Huangquan faction's conspiracy is conclusive, and the Liu family in the capital is sincerely committed, it doesn't matter whether this piece of evidence is true or not.
At this time, Liu Shen, who understood the truth, also cooperated with Shen Yunzhou and spoke.
A weak voice came from one side, and he said feebly:
"Everything Prince Shen said is true. The Bingzhou lineage plotting rebellion has nothing to do with my Beijing lineage. If the imperial court can find me of some use, Liu will go through fire and water without hesitation."
Shen Yunzhou had just greeted him. After learning what his son had done, Liu Shen, after a short period of thinking, could only decisively make the same decision as his son Liu Yu, to switch sides!
If he had not defected, the Liu family's charges of rebellion and corruption would have definitely fallen on him. With several crimes being punished at the same time, it is certain that he will be punished; and just like Liu Yu said, the practice of Bingzhou lineage is really to go first when there is something going on, I will enjoy the blessing, and you will take the blame when there is something. It's because they are a bunch of short-sighted people that this word is an insult.
As for defecting and choosing to continue to believe in the royalists, if it succeeds, the Liu family in the capital will not only be able to wipe out all the previous stains and misdeeds, but it will not be a problem for them to even become famous. Even if you bet on the wrong thing, you can still live for a while. You make money no matter what!
It seemed like it was a choice, but in fact, after Shen Yunzhou came here and told him about Liu Yu, he had no choice.
As a veteran, Wang Jie was naturally not an impetuous person. After he calmed down from the shock and anger, he carefully considered Shen Yunzhou's words, and then he understood why Shen Yunzhou wanted to personally go out to acquit Liu Shen, so After a brief analysis, he slowly said:
"If you want Liu Shen to be able to continue to act as an eye liner after he is exonerated, there is still another problem in this matter. How to explain Bai Yin's whereabouts? Even if Liu Shen is exonerated, there needs to be an appropriate reason that cannot be suspected. yes."
Wang Jie, who is most capable of becoming an important minister in the court, is such a smart man. He immediately made a decision after figuring it out in his mind.
Since you want to use your strategy to eradicate the wealthy sects in Bingzhou, then this will be more effective for the people of Bingzhou than using Liu Shen as a scapegoat who is not the mastermind.
Then why don't I cooperate?
"It doesn't matter. I will ask my son to cooperate with you to contact Bingzhou and let them cooperate with us to deal with it."
Since Liu Shen chose to sell his teammates, he decided to sell them to the end and squeeze out the final value of Bingzhou Lineage to them. Anyway, you don’t treat us as human beings, so please be my stepping stone.
"Presumably the Bingzhou people don't want their cooperation with the Huangquan faction to end. Otherwise, their four years of hard work will be in vain. They can't even part with four million, so why would they give up this? So they will definitely do it."
Hearing Liu Shen's words that seemed to peel away the hearts of the Liu family in Bingzhou, Wang Jie and Shen Yunzhou turned to look at Liu Shen at the same time. They looked deeply at the unkempt but clear-looking man with a shuddering feeling.
That's what the so-called traitors are.
Once you choose to rebel, it is the best knife to do the opposite!
Fortunately, he is on his side now.
"Liu Shen, then write a letter and I will ask Liu Yu to handle it. However, during this period, you still have to stay in the Third Prison and go through the daily procedures while awaiting trial."
Shen Yunzhou knelt down, looked at Liu Shen with a smile and firm eyes full of hatred for Bingzhou, and then said,
"Behave well and don't let others know about it."
After saying that, he stood up, explained some affairs to Wang Jie, and left.
…
"Gongmao, do you think Bingzhou will be an obstacle to Liu Shen's imprisonment?"
"Both the local officials and the aristocratic families in Bingzhou must have something going on, and they must have colluded together. As for Zhu Tianhe and the martial saint, there may have been sudden changes four years ago, so they stopped showing up after that. Now With the world in such a situation, no one would believe it if he said he had no idea to pursue anything. However, Zhou Ding’s strength should be more than enough to defeat Zhu Tianhe, who lacks strength."
Liang Shuo was still the same, wearing a purple robe with no patterns and looking ordinary. He patted his fan and said as he walked,
"I heard that Chen Yin had some signs of cold when he went back last night. It seems that Old Chen's health is not going well. Wang Jie seems to have arranged Zhou Yan's position. Has he joined the Yu Army? "
Xu Ting next to Liang Shuo chuckled and said:
"Thanks to Wang Jie, Zhou Yan has joined the Yu Army as a captain. I heard that his skills are superior to everyone else, and he has been appointed as the commander of the Jin Yu Army by Chen Yin."
"That's good, that's good."
