Chapter 117 Why Die?

"In addition to writing, can you recite memorization?" He said.

"Yes." Shen Liang nodded, opened his mouth to recite the rules for disciples, and also recited the Three Character Classic.

Shen Ruopu went on to test him: "What does 'first filial piety, second knowledge.' mean?"

"That is to say, filial piety is the most important thing for people, and the second is to increase knowledge." The little fat man opened his mouth and came in a childish voice.

Shen Ruopu took a slow breath and looked at him deeply.

How could he not know that these were all taught by Shen Xi?

He originally counted the descendants of the Shen family, but he didn't expect to have such a capable granddaughter suddenly!

He looked at the wise and heavy eyes, and fell silent.

Shen Xi looked at it for a long time, and tried to ask: "Is there something bothering the old man?"

Shen Ruopu glanced at her: "Did you see it?"

Shen Xi smiled and nodded.

He fell silent.Picking up the cup to brew, seeing the tea leaves in the cup that were as old as him, he couldn't help saying: "Isn't there any better tea?"

"These are what the mansion receives. I can't afford the good ones." Shen Xi still smiled slightly.Then he winked with the maids and led Shen Liang back.

Shen Ruopu frowned and pursed his mouth for a while, and then said flatteringly: "At noon today, Mr. Han Ge suddenly sent me to the office."

Hearing Han Dun, Shen Xi also paused. "What did he seek you for?"

"He asked me if I found anything unusual during the trial of Chen Xiu's case."

Shen Xi was slightly taken aback, and asked, "Then what did you say?"

"I said no," he said, "but it wasn't.

"Although Chen Xiu's charges are not entirely unjust, some of the evidence is indeed somewhat strange.

"That is to say, if it is judged according to the truth, Chen Xiu's crime will not be fatal."

Sin does not kill?Shen Xi suddenly remembered what Chen Xiu said before he died on the execution ground. So, could it be that Chen Xiu was really framed by Xiao Huai?

No wonder he rushed to Datong in such a hurry, presumably Chen Xiu's tribe was causing trouble.

"Then does the King of Yan know about this?" She asked, "Why did Mr. Han Ge inquire about this matter?"

"I just don't know whether I should tell King Yan. Because I feel that King Yan doesn't know that Chen Xiu's criminal evidence is false."

Shen Ruopu said worriedly: "Chen Xiu was arrested by the prince, and the evidence was provided by him. I originally thought it was the decision of the Yan Palace, but a while ago I heard that there was a military report from Datong to the Ministry of War, saying that Datong had Chen Xiu's followers are making trouble.

"If the King of Yan knew that Chen Xiu was being framed, or that the King of Yan wanted to kill Chen Xiu, then it would be impossible for the people in the northwest to resist.

"So I guess that killing Chen Xiu was the son of King Yan's personal idea. The reason why Mr. Han Ge asked me was nothing more than seeing the note from the Ministry of War.

"If I explain this matter to King Yan truthfully, I will offend my son. If I don't say it, King Yan will pursue it later. What should I do?"

He can't offend either of the father and son. Not only do they have their own power, but the key is that they are blood relatives!
Offending anyone is tantamount to offending a pair.

Shen Xi Ning recalled, that day in the small alley, Xiao Huai said that he was going to talk to Shen Ruopu when he turned around, and he wanted to make a credit for him. It seemed that Shen Ruopu had pretended to be confused and hadn't revealed anything in front of He Lanzhun. For the sake.

"You have a lot of ideas, why don't you tell me?" Shen Ruopu looked at her.

Ordinarily, these things should not be told to her, but her knowledge has exceeded his expectations, and she is still stable, and no one around her can rest assured to discuss it, so he just gave it a try.

Shen Xi couldn't just open his mouth to answer.

If Xiao Huai's trip to Datong can cover up this matter, then Shen Ruopu can shut up.

If you don't have this ability, you still have to tell King Yan.

But judging from the fact that he was simmering mutton and looking at the official documents that day, he should still have the ability to surrender a few generals, right?

Otherwise, at that moment, what kind of mutton did he cook?
By the way, he still has time to make things difficult for her. If he is not sure, he will still be so leisurely?
Thinking of this, she said, "I don't think I can say it."

Shen Ruopu raised his eyebrows.

Shen Xidao: "If you say it and cause the crown prince to be scolded, if that person holds grudges and turns around to punish you, can King Yan stand up for you?"

Shen Ruopu frowned slightly and nodded.

It makes sense to say so!
They are father and son after all, although they may be held accountable by King Yan if they don't say anything, but after all, he is helping his son, and it is impossible for him to really take Xiao Huai to justice for a dead general.

What's more, as long as Chen Xiu is not guilty of death, he will definitely spend his life in prison, working for his son, and it is impossible for King Yan to really do anything to him.

Feeling at ease, he stood up and looked around the room twice, and without saying anything, he walked out the door with his hands behind his back.

Northwest Daying has a windy and dry climate.But every summer it rains suddenly.

Xiao Huai wiped his sword with a handkerchief amidst the sound of pattering rain, and a column of watery fragrance lingered in the corner of the room, and the solemnity in the general's camp disappeared a little.

But the atmosphere in the room was still frozen.

Several black-clothed warriors were tied up under the screen. Su Peifang knelt on the ground, covered with a bevy of sweat, raised her eyes and looked up secretly, her strong body was already trembling slightly.

"I heard that you plan to enter Beijing tomorrow?"

Xiao Huai wiped the patterns on the sword carefully, and spoke slowly and hoarsely.

"No! My subordinate, my subordinate does not want to go to Beijing!" Su Peifang hurriedly denied, "This subordinate must stick to his post in Datong!"

"Oh?" Xiao Huai turned his head, narrowed his eyes and took a look, "But I saw it clearly written in the military newspaper, could it be that my eyes are dazzled?

"But these people sneaked up on me last night. I saw that there were seven of them, and they were caught. It seems that there are no more or no less."

Su Peifang's mouth was dry and she was sweating profusely.

They had already received the news that Xiao Huai and He Lanzhun were coming to Datong, and they saw him yesterday as before, with the same taciturn and ineffective appearance, and he and the other two counselors planned this last night A surprise attack, intending to avenge Chen Xiu!

But unexpectedly, before they had time to get close to his bed, all seven of them fell into his ambush!
In the dark and rainy night, the long sword in his hand was like a rainbow, and he hit one of the generals who came with him in the chest from ten feet away!
What he was wiping now was just the blood left on the sword by the ginseng general.

With their crime of secretly attacking Prince Yan's son, no matter how wronged Chen Xiu and the others were, they would not be able to prosecute him. He began to know how powerful this taciturn son was, so powerful that all the conspiracies they could think of would come to fruition in front of him. A joke!

"My lord, have mercy!" He trembled and fell on the floor.

Xiao Huai looked down at him, the coldness in his eyes bottomless.

"Back then, the 23 members of the Wei family, including women and children, begged for mercy in front of you and Chen Xiu, right?"

Su Peifang was shocked and raised her head suddenly!

Wei family? !
Xiao Huai leaned on the ground with his sword, and slowly squatted halfway in front of him, his eyes as cold as ice pierced directly into his eyes: "Now, do you know why you are going to die?"

Su Peifang's eyes were wide open, her face was like gold paper!
Puff!
The long sword had already sunk into his chest, and the blade was protruding from his back, while blood dripped down the hilt in lines, like rain outside the window.

The corpse collapsed.

Xiao Huai wiped the blood stains on the back of his hands with a handkerchief, and cleaned his hands in the copper basin brought by the servant: "Drag out, feed the dog."
