Chapter 541
After sending off the eunuch Xuanzhi, Shangguan Jin locked himself in the study for an entire hour, no one knew what Shangguan Jin was thinking and doing.

An hour later, Shangguan Jin left the study room, but within an hour, Shangguan Jin seemed to have aged several years all of a sudden.

After leaving the study, Shangguan Jin first went to Shoukang Garden, then Fuxi Pavilion, and then Jufu Garden.

When it was almost noon, Shangguan Ning received the news that after noon, the Yu Cheng Envoy would open a court session at the Yu Cheng Si Yamen to hear Shangguan Hongqun's case.

At that time, Shangguan Ning was holding a teacup and blowing the froth on the tea leaves, with a faint smile on his lips.

Shangguan Jin never expected that this matter would alarm the emperor, even the opening of the trial was an imperial decree issued by the emperor, what does this mean?

Shangguan Hongqun was detained in Yu Chengsi's prison, surrounded by as many guards as a cow's hair, and the entire prison was as solid as an iron barrel, and Si Mian specially issued an order not to allow anyone to visit.

Shangguan Jin couldn't see anyone, and he didn't even know who the imprisoned woman from a good family was mentioned in the imperial edict.

Si Mian is also a newly appointed upstart, with a clean sleeve, and his relationship with all the ministers in the court is as smooth as water, and he has no way to find someone to be a lobbyist.

Therefore, at this time, Shangguan Jin was like a lion trapped in a cage, with all his abilities but unable to use them, it was no wonder he wasn't depressed.

Shangguan Ning glanced at Baimei who came to deliver the letter.

"Baimei, you go back to your mother and say that I will go with my mother to the trial in the afternoon. After all, he is my elder brother. I should be present no matter what the reason is."

Baimei looked at Shangguan Ning's leisurely drinking tea, and she really didn't seem worried, but she didn't show it at all, and retreated respectfully.

"Le'er, pack up, we're going to the theater this afternoon."

Le'er didn't know much about this matter from the beginning to the end, but she was very clear about one thing, that is, the young master in the house was the one who gave Ziyu a puppet gu, and Le'er alone He didn't like Shangguan Hongqun at all.

The lady said to watch a play, so naturally it should be very lively.

To Shangguan Ning's surprise, Ning Shi also appeared on the carriage heading to Yu Chengsi.

It is said that on the day when Si Mian came to the mansion, Ning fainted from a sudden rage, and after a few days of rest, he did not see any improvement. At this time, the expression on his face was still very tired, and his complexion was also very poor.

It seems that the eldest grandson of Shangguan Hongqun has an extraordinary position in Ning's heart.

Because it was going to the trial, the faces of everyone were not very good-looking, and the face of Qin Shi who was walking at the back was even more frighteningly pale. She never thought that the matter would be stabbed to the emperor. It is a serious case, and it is impossible not to investigate the bottom of the case.

"Grandma, your complexion is not good, are you uncomfortable?"

Shangguan Ning asked Ning's with concern.

Ning looked at Shangguan Ning who was sticking to her, and forced a smile.

"It's okay, I'm old, my body can't control me anymore."

Shangguan Ning didn't take it seriously, wondering if she, her grandmother, would be as anxious as she is now if she was the one who was imprisoned today.

"Grandmother, don't worry. Brother is a man who understands rules and rational numbers. He will never do anything against the law. Maybe it's just a misunderstanding."

Knowing that Shangguan Ning was comforting herself, Ning nodded her head reluctantly, but she knew in her heart that things might not be that simple this time.
