"Bang bang bang." Ye Shen kowtowed uncontrollably.

For a while, everyone in the court sighed.

Once upon a time, Ye Shangshu fell into this fate for his own selfish desires.

Emperor Xuan's expression showed no joy or anger, and I didn't know whether he believed it or not.

After a while, he said: "Ye Shen. He plotted to kill the officials of the dynasty. He was ordered to be executed on a certain day. His mansion was confiscated and his family members were exiled. In addition, Nie Aiqing and Gu Aiqing were successful in investigating the case. Nie Aiqing was promoted to the Minister of Household Affairs and Gu Aiqing gave him ten thousand taels of gold."

Nie Yuan and Gu Qingzhao expressed their gratitude at the same time.

Nie Yuan wanted to say something else.

He immediately made eye contact with Gu Qingzhao, and he swallowed the words hard.

He was unwilling to give in. Although the evidence was conclusive, he had no choice but to stop Xu Xiang.

At this moment, Xu Xiang was crying in the court with runny nose and tears, saying that he was loyal and had the advice of the prince's party.

Emperor Xuan finally let him get up, "I believe you, Xu Aiqing. Besides, Xu Aiqing has no reason to murder Nie Aiqing."

In one sentence, the meaning cannot be studied further.

Now that Ye Shen has taken all the blame and there is no other evidence of guilt, he can only give up for now.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Xu Xu breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing Ye Shen being dragged out, he secretly winked and told him that the prince would take good care of his daughter.

Seeing this promise-like look in his eyes, Ye Shen finally felt like dying.

Gu Qingzhao spoke again at this moment: "Your Majesty, although there is not enough evidence to find out the mastermind behind Ruan Fang's case, there is enough evidence to prove that Ruan Fang was indeed wronged. The people of Feng County are also

News has been spreading that the court should be allowed to defend Lord Ruan. Although this matter is against the rules, it is nothing more than human kindness outside of legal principles. At this moment, it seems that the court is more benevolent and righteous on behalf of Magistrate Ruan."

In fact, the case has not yet been investigated. Even if there is a lot of evidence to prove that the matter has nothing to do with Ruan Fang, it seems against the rules to show off for Ruan Fang like this.

However, Gu Qingzhao's statement that the legal principle was nothing more than human feelings was in line with the people's wishes.

Emperor Xuan sighed.

"That's alright. The case has not yet been resolved, so it is not appropriate to summon her now. However, I pity Ruan Fang's orphan girl Ruan Qingcheng who is alone in Kyoto, helpless and struggling. So I broke this rule and made her the head of Qingcheng County. Pending investigation

Once I emerge as the mastermind behind the scenes, I will follow the emperor's orders and bring justice to the world for Ruan Fang."

"Holy Saint!"

There was an outpouring of support in the court.

After what happened just now, who dares to displease Emperor Xuan now?

Even a few veterans felt it was too unruly and could only sigh a few times and agree, so as not to bring disaster to Chiyu.

After the court, everyone came to congratulate Nie Yuan.

Cang Shuo, in particular, felt extremely happy.

Ye Shen was a member of the crown prince, and held an important official position, the Minister of Punishment. Now that he was overthrown, wouldn't it make people happy?

By the way, today because of Ye Shen and Xu Xiang's incident, many people have forgotten about Gu Qingzhao and An Ning.

He went to court this morning with the intention of asking his father to marry Gu Qingzhao and An Ning.

"Master Gu."

Cang Shuo is here.

"You and Miss An will have a happy wedding soon."

He said this sentence loudly on purpose.

The adults who were preparing to leave the palace stopped and looked over.

Even the prince and prime minister Xu stopped where they were.

Gu Qing looked at each other and said without changing his expression: "Prince, be careful, Miss An and I are innocent."

Cang Shuo acted like he understood.

"Of course it's innocent. What is the meaning of sexual intercourse between you and Miss An? This folk rumor is too ugly. This is called mutual love! Since two people are happy with each other, then they should be happy one after another. You said it is

No? Master Gu? I will also testify for you two in front of the Emperor Father. Those unpleasant rumors outside must have come out because they were envious of the love between you and Miss An. Asking the Emperor Father to grant the marriage, it happened to be stopped.

The meaning of those villains."

Cang Shuo said while looking at Cang Lan.

Cang Lan's already bad complexion turned even greener.

He wanted to step forward but was held back by Xu Xiang.

Xu Xiang's eyes were full of warning.

It is not appropriate for the prince to have an open relationship with that little girl from the An family now, otherwise he will get into trouble.

Nie Yuan replied calmly from the side: "Seventh Prince, since the rumors among the people are rumors, the Seventh Prince should not believe any of them. Besides, Mr. Gu and Miss An are just private matters at best, and it is no one else's turn to come.

Intervene. At the most serious level, someone is deliberately trying to ruin someone’s reputation. The Seventh Prince should not be like the people in the market... gossiping."

Say the last two words.

All the officials covered their mouths to suppress laughter.

They did not expect that Mr. Nie would dare to have a verbal dispute with the Seventh Prince just after he was appointed as the Minister of Punishment. He was worthy of being the first firebrand in the new official's appointment.

Cang Lan's complexion also improved a lot.

Cang Shuo was so insulted by Nie Yuan that she felt a little embarrassed for a moment.

He chuckled: "What Mr. Nie said is that it belongs to me. In that case, I will leave first."

Then all the officials also dispersed.

The moment Cang Shuo turned his back to everyone, the smile on his face disappeared.

What a Nie Yuan, he really relies on his father and is unreasonable.

But he had finished what he needed to say, and now he wanted to see if An Ning and Gu Qingzhao were who Yue Er said they were.

If it's true...

If he doesn't add a little fire to it, the fake can become real.

The General's Mansion received the news of Ye Shen's dismissal not long after the court came to court.

What followed was an imperial edict.

But no one thought about the person who came to issue the imperial edict...

It’s Gu Qingzhao...

The moment An Ning saw Gu Qingzhao, the two looked at each other and smiled in tacit understanding.

After Gu Qingzhao finished reading the imperial edict, everyone stood up.

He handed the imperial edict to Ruan Qingcheng and congratulated him: "Congratulations to County Master Qingcheng."

Ruan Qingcheng thanked him and said, "Thank you, Mr. Gu."

Lin was also a little surprised. She was not surprised that Ruan Qingcheng was named the county head, but she was really surprised that Gu Qingzhao came to deliver the order.

If there are rumors outside, these two people will not avoid suspicion...

Mrs. Lin covered her mouth and said with a smile: "Young man, you talk, you talk, I will leave first."

Before leaving, she took a special look twice.

Compared to the prince, she was simply too satisfied with Gu Qingzhao.

He is young and promising, has character and knowledge, and is clean.

It's a good marriage.

Besides, there are rumors outside now, so instead of avoiding suspicion, it would be better to meet openly and openly today.

At present, there are many people outside who are saying that Ning Ning and Gu Qingzhao are in love, which she thinks is interesting.

An Ning looked at the drama in her mother's eyes and sighed helplessly.

Gu Qingzhao walked up to An Ning and said softly: "You must have received the news. Ye Shen will ask tomorrow."

An Ning nodded.

"I see."

Everyone around him consciously left.

Now they are the only two people left in the front yard.

"you···"

"you···"

The two of them spoke at the same time.

"Miss An, let's talk first."
