Chapter 80: Which of you is Shen Luo’s biological father?

When Xu Xiao's book was delivered to Emperor Cheng, all the officials had already gone to court.

After Emperor Cheng opened the memorial, Long Yan was furious and immediately ordered Cao Cheng to send people to call back the dispersed courtiers.

The civil and military officials in the court looked at Emperor Cheng and murmured in their hearts: They have already gone to court, why should they be called back?

Li Ao stepped forward and asked: "The morning court has been held, why has your Majesty called the generals and ministers back to you?"

Emperor Cheng gently opened his eyes and looked at the ministers: "I am recalling you today for Shen Luo!"

"Shen Luo has killed all the gangsters outside Xiangyang City and has made great contributions to the imperial court."

"Congratulations to Your Majesty!" Li Ao immediately knelt down to express his congratulations, and then praised gushingly: "Your Majesty is so wise that he recruited Master Shen into the court. He has repeatedly performed extraordinary feats in suppressing bandits and arresting murderers. It is really a blessing for the court. Jiang A blessing to the country.”

"Ai Qing rarely praises others? Why would you say this today?" Emperor Cheng looked at the stubborn Li Ao and said jokingly: "Some time ago, weren't you still talking about Shen Luo's eloquent words, his murderous nature, and his violent personality?"

Li Ao immediately admitted his mistake: "That is because the old minister is short-sighted and complacent."

After finishing his words, Li Ao explained: "It's not that I don't have a good impression of Lord Shen, but it's because his methods are too ruthless."

"But Mr. Shen decided to help Chen Fa after learning that his wife had been separated for more than ten years. His wife returned home yesterday!"

As he said this, Li Ao's eyes were full of guilt: "I always suppressed Master Shen, but Master Shen ignored the previous grudges and helped reunite the old minister and his wife. I feel ashamed of myself!"

"Li Xiang thinks, how is Mr. Shen like a person? How is he doing things?" Emperor Cheng took advantage of the situation and asked, inspecting the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty.

"Master Shen has a heart as fine as dust, is courageous and brave, and is not afraid of the powerful. He is indeed a model for officials of the dynasty." Li Ao replied loudly.

Emperor Cheng looked at everyone and asked in a deep voice: "What do you think of Master Shen as a person?"

"The Prime Minister is right." Jing Tingyi, the Minister of Punishment, and Gu Hong, the Censor, were the first to reply.

They have the most contact with Master Shen, and now that Li Xiang has spoken, Your Majesty, they must stand behind Master Shen without any scruples and support him.

Su Xiang, who had a grudge against Shen Luo, remained silent while the others stepped forward, including Yue Jifeng, the commander of the imperial army, who had always had a crush on Shen Luo.

Seeing this, Emperor Cheng looked at everyone and asked in a deep voice: "If someone has trapped Situ in an unjust place, what should you think?"

"Shen Situ is an official of the imperial court, and the imperial court has supported him since he was a child." Gu Hong, the imperial censor, stepped forward and replied in a loud voice: "Shen Situ eliminated ruthless bandits for the country, killed evil thieves for the people, and provoked countless enemies. .If someone traps Situ Shen into injustice, it is tantamount to murdering Situ Shen’s life.”

"I believe that whoever wants to murder Shen Situ should be put to death." Gu Hong raised his voice in order not to be heard by others.

"Master Gu has said this." Su Xiang stepped forward and said in a cold voice: "Shen Situ has served the country and the people well, but she is extreme in her behavior and it is normal for her to offend others. If she provokes revenge, she deserves it. Why would you ask others to pay for a woman’s life?”

"Mr. Su, it is a serious crime for you to sneak into the Beizhen Prefecture Office because of Wang's murder case. Mr. Shen is extremely lenient in not reporting it to the censor Tai Shen. Don't ask for trouble!" Jing, the Minister of Punishment! Tingyi stepped forward and retorted.

As soon as Jing Tingyi finished speaking, Gu Hong stepped forward and threatened: "Master Su, you'd better not speak, so as not to provoke the sword again."

"Now that Su Xiang is talking about a case that is certain, it is a bit too much." Ji Kunming looked at Su Xiang and asked.

Su Xiang raised her eyes and glanced at Ji Kunming, Jing Tingyi and the others, and sneered with disdain: "Don't say it so high-sounding, you are so protective of Shen Luo, don't you still want to use her connections to solve your problems and protect your career? Is it prosperous?"

"What kind of saint are you pretending to be here with me? If you really care about her, you should improve your abilities and stop relying on Shen Luo for everything."

Su Xiang raised her eyebrows slightly with disdain in her eyes: "Ask yourselves, are you defending Shen Luo like this for him or for your own official position?"

"That's enough!" Emperor Cheng looked at Su Xiang with his hands raised, and became angry. He said, "The main hall is a place for political discussions, not the streets of the vegetable market where you make noises."

Emperor Cheng raised his hand and took away the memorial on the sandalwood table, and showed it to everyone: "I have a memorial here. There is something written in the memorial that shocked me so much that it almost crushed all the moral principles in my heart. "

Emperor Cheng looked at everyone with burning eyes, trying to see through the hearts and minds in front of him. Under such a scrutinizing gaze, everyone trembled in their hearts.

In the end, Emperor Cheng handed the zhezi to Eunuch Cao. Eunuch Cao bowed his head, took the zhezi respectfully, then spread it out and read out: "Kowtow to your majesty, please pay your respects."

The last general ordered to cooperate with Beizhen Prefecture Chief Shen Situ to suppress the bandits, and achieved great success. However, he unexpectedly learned that two of the bandits outside Xiangyang City were the Tengzhou bandits twelve years ago, named Tu E and Fu Rong. These two were from Tengzhou. Ranked the third and greatest evil among the evil gangsters.

Mr. Shen single-handedly killed the two thieves and the killers Tiangang Twelve Shas hired by Tu E with a huge sum of money, eliminating serious troubles for the soldiers and contributing to our army's great victory.

I would like to submit the attached form. Firstly, I would like to ask for credit for Lord Shen. Secondly, I would like to ask Your Majesty to make the decision for Lord Shen.

Master Shen was from Tengzhou, and his father was a court official. Twelve years ago, Master Shen's father led troops to suppress the bandits, which angered the bandits and kidnapped Master Shen's sister. Later, Master Shen's sister was killed by Fu Rong, the leader of the evil bandits in Tengzhou.

The people of Tengzhou were in dire straits, and the common people rose up to attack, killing more than half of them. His father was greedy for life and fearful of death, lying on the ground to beg for mercy and evading responsibility. Later, Li Taojiang was promoted to a high official for his achievements in plundering and suppressing bandits.

Mr. Shen was abandoned by his biological father, and his biological mother is nowhere to be found. However, he resisted hatred and practiced martial arts hard. He hunted down the criminals and apprehended the grievances of the people.

On the other hand, Mr. Shen was a father. He didn't care about the life of his eldest daughter and allowed her to be killed by thieves. He didn't care about the lives of the people and allowed the gangsters to cause trouble. In order to cover up his crime, he did not report his crime to the court and put the people in dire straits. Later, he abandoned his wife and daughter and married another woman.

This person is unfaithful, unfilial, unkind and unjust. How can he hold an important position? How can he be qualified to serve as an official in the court?

I am a minister in the same palace as Master Shen. I admire Master Shen as a human being and feel sorry for what happened to Master Shen. I beg Your Majesty to find out the father of Master Shen and make the decision for Master Shen!

At the end of the day, General Xu Xiao asked Your Majesty to make the decision for Shen Situ, which showed that he was a loyal minister.

I will be very grateful."

With tears in Cao Cheng's eyes, he closed the memorial and knelt down and asked: "Master Shen has a pure heart and is unswervingly determined to bear all the hatred on one shoulder. However, her father wasted no time on the life and death of the people and ignored the life of his own daughter. Please, Your Majesty, please pray for Master Shen." Take the initiative and find out Mr. Shen’s biological father."

"I can't blame Shen Luo for not wanting to step into the Xuanzheng Hall to discuss matters to this day. It's because there is someone in the court who she hates to the core."

Emperor Cheng slammed the memorial on the table in front of him and almost roared: "Tell me, which of you is Shen Luo's biological father?"
