Chapter 469: Reversing Black and White, No Evidence
"The Queen Mother, please calm down. Quanzi is also the second son of the minister. He was so seriously injured by the princess. He was so anxious that he said the wrong thing." Shen Bi said quickly.
Shen'er has always been calm and would not get angry so easily. He was so angry that when he received the news, he wished he could cut Mu Lingwei into pieces.
Now that he saw it with his own eyes, he felt even more distressed. He must avenge Yu'er.
"Shen'er, hurry up and bring the murderer here to clear Yu'er's grievances. Our Shen family is dedicated to serving the country and the people, and we swear to the death to protect the safety of Long Yuan Kingdom. We must not let the people misunderstand that our Shen family would do such a crazy thing. Matter." Shen Bi quickly smoothed things over.
Although Shen Chen was furious, he certainly knew what to do in front of the people.
Mu Lingwei refused: "General Shen should take back that "untouchable" sentence before bringing the murderer here!"
"How does the princess want to deal with it? If you say anything out loud, the water will be thrown out. Quanzi just said the wrong thing out of urgency. I believe the emperor will not blame Shen'er for his unintentional mistake." Shen Bi said coldly.
Jun Chenrui saw that the matter had strayed from the subject and did not want to offend his uncle, so he wanted to make a big deal out of it and laughed it off.
"Wait a minute." Mu Lingwei said: "General Shen should at least apologize to this princess, otherwise whoever sees me in the future will call me a pariah, and I will forgive them. Where is the majesty of the royal family, and the national prestige of Long Yuan Kingdom? Why, if it spreads to other countries, it will only laugh at whether the ruler of this dynasty is the emperor, the ministers are not the ministers, and the emperor and the ministers are not distinguished!"
"That's the truth. Cousin Shen Shen, just complain to Mrs. Wang first and the matter will be over." Jun Chenrui said. The Queen's grandmother was even angry. The dignity of the royal family cannot be trampled on by others.
Shen Bi just wanted to scold the ignorant and stupid woman, and he only dared to scold her in his heart, not wanting to cause any more trouble.
Shen Chen gritted his teeth, already hating Mu Lingwei to his core, but for the sake of his second brother, he endured it.
He added: "Princess, don't blame me, I just said it unintentionally."
If she continues to hold on to it, she is being unreasonable.
So, Mu Lingwei said in a warm voice: "I will give you a chance to make amends for your past mistakes. Now I order you to summon the murderer who kidnapped my princess to the court. I want to see who dares to openly kidnap my princess."
At this time, his heavy face looked as if he had swallowed a fly alive.
Jun Yi and others have black streaks all over their heads, but Mu Lingwei's ability to climb along the pole is really majestic!
Shen Chen made preparations in such a short period of time, it was difficult to deal with him!
Soon, Madam Yingniang and Manager Fang of Changlefang were brought up before the emperor could ask questions.
The two of them knelt on the ground and kowtowed violently to the emperor in confession.
Manager Fang said: "All this was done by ordinary people. The girl in the dark room was also captured by ordinary people. The ordinary people confessed."
Yingniang also confessed, and added: "Master Shen Yu is a frequent visitor to Changlefang, so today he was just having fun in the dark room. Unexpectedly, the civilian woman did not know Princess Anyang and kidnapped her by mistake. The civilian woman knew that she was guilty of death. Please punish me, Your Majesty."
"Since you were the ones who kidnapped my princess, you should tell me how I was kidnapped by you. I want to see how you made up a flower."
"Obviously it was Shen Yu who kidnapped me, but you still want to turn black into white, tsk tsk, what kind of world is this!" She sighed to Jun Ao.
It means that the evidence is conclusive and the Shen family has the ability to clear their name. Prince Regent, please be more careful!
Mu Lingwei said coldly: "Were those girls locked up in the dark room and those girls killed in Changle Square also caused by you?"
Yingniang didn't dare to look at Mu Lingwei and nodded repeatedly: "It was done by the women of the people. It was also because of their greed that they came up with this method to catch them and make money."
Manager Fang also said: "Changlefang was opened by grassroots people, and grassroots people plead guilty."
As soon as this statement came out, the whole hall was in an uproar.
How could a powerless madam and a steward have such great ability to run Changlefang? Without power, no one could afford to run a brothel of this size.
Everyone knew that they were here to confess their crimes, and they all knew that Changlefang was the property of the Shen family and Shen Yu was the boss.
At this time, as long as the emperor sends a message to arrest the two men, the case can be closed.
If Queen Mother Shen still had the Phoenix Seal in her hand, she wouldn't have to come forward and the matter would just be over. Unfortunately, things are different now.
"Jun Yi, bring those victims here." The Empress Dowager said solemnly.
"Yes." Jun Yi also didn't expect that Shen Chen would bring out two servants to take the blame.
If it had been before, this matter would have really been exposed.
But now...
Soon, the girls and the dead woman were all brought into the court.
At the same time, when the people waiting aside saw their daughter suddenly appear, they all surrounded her and burst into tears.
"If you have any grievances, just tell the Empress Dowager and the Emperor will make the decision for you." Jun Yida said.
Shen Chen took a deep look at Jun Yi. Jun Yi and Mu Lingwei had colluded to harm the Shen family.
Jun Ao didn't say anything today. It's true that these people lost their daughters, but it's worth pondering that they all chased to Tanxiang Temple to surround the emperor and file a complaint.
Jun Yi was let back by the Empress Dowager on the way, but Mu Lingwei was kidnapped by Shen Yu on the way.
It can only explain one thing, the Empress Dowager wants to deal with the Shen family.
Changlefang has always been the property of the Shen family and has made a lot of money. If Changlefang was eliminated, he would be happy to see it.
Then, Jun Ao suddenly spoke up and said: "You answer truthfully. Since a murder has occurred, I will investigate the matter to the end and give you justice."
Everyone was shocked. Even the regent supported the investigation of the case. It seemed that the trend had really changed.
So, these girls also told their own experiences, but no one could prove that Shen Yu had someone kidnapped them.
Because except for Mu Lingwei, who was killed by Shen Yu himself, the rest were kidnapped by people under Shen Yu.
At this moment, Mu Ying suddenly stood up and said: "The Min girl was abducted by Shen Yu. Today the Min girl was going to Tanxiang Temple to offer incense and pray for blessings, but Shen Yu suddenly blocked the Min girl's way. Knocked the girl unconscious, and when she woke up, the girl discovered that he had brought the girl to Princess Anyang and threatened her with me. Therefore, Princess Anyang was captured by Shen Yu for the safety of the girl. He also said that he would sell the princess at a good price, and that he would take revenge on King Anyang so that he would not be able to win the war."
Shen Chen asked: "What's your name?"
Mu Ying knew that he was Mu Lingwei's enemy. She was stunned for a moment. After receiving Mu Lingwei's signal, she said: "The civilian girl's name is Mu Ying."
Shen Chen sneered and said: "Mu Ying, both of whom have a surname of Mu, so you and the princess are related."
"She is my cousin." Mu Lingwei said.
"Since she is a relative of the princess, she may collude with the princess to make perjury and falsely accuse A Yu." Shen Shen was extremely shameless.
When Mu Ying heard this, she became anxious and said: "Everything the girl said is true, it was indeed Shen Yu who kidnapped me. He wanted to kill the princess. The princess hurt him because of self-defense. He wanted to sell the princess for the lowest price of 100,000 yuan." The two pieces of silver were auctioned off, and they all heard and saw it."
Suddenly, everyone looked at the rescued women. Their eyes were full of timidity and they did not dare to speak.
Although they were rescued, they had been imprisoned for so long. Even if they didn't die, they would still be slandered, and it would be even harder for them to get married in the future.
Mu Ying asked: "Did Shen Yu kidnap you?"
At this time, a girl in purple clothes said boldly: "We don't know who Shen Yu is."
"That's the man you saw in the darkroom." She pointed to Shen Yu lying on the stretcher: "That's him."
She shook her head and said: "I didn't see clearly who kidnapped me at the time. I was kept in a cage by them. Thank you to the princess for saving my life, but I only knew those thugs. They kidnapped me. Come."
Mu Ying's mind was also spinning fast. Shen Yu was the boss behind the scenes. How could he catch people in person?
She added: "There is also his wife Zhang. She also personally admitted that they kidnapped you. You should have met Zhang when you were imprisoned there. She also wants to sell you to others for money."
The woman added: "Today we saw her for the first time..."
Mu Ying understood instantly, and she looked at Mu Lingwei again. These girls had been locked in a cage. Shen Yu and Zhang did not show up at all, so Shen Chen was not afraid of their identification.
And those thugs are also Shen Yu's people. If they grit their teeth and deny it, wouldn't Sister Wei be in danger?
Mu Lingwei smiled at her and signaled her not to worry.
