The Return of the Demon

Chapter 444: Pardoning the Deposed Crown Prince

That afternoon, memorials were sent to the palace one after another, and piled up into a small mountain on Emperor Xuan's dragon desk.

For the first time, Emperor Xuan felt that reading memorials was such a comfortable thing.

These memorials were all pleading for the deposed prince.

In the Fan Mansion, Fan Taihe held the pen, unable to write for a long time.

Because once the pen fell, he might offend the fifth prince.

Although the deposed prince would not be reused after being pardoned, he was after all a royal bloodline and still a prince.

As long as he was a prince, he would be a threat to the fifth prince.

But if he didn't write this memorial, he would have to sacrifice his two children.

After thinking about it, he still wrote a memorial to plead for the deposed prince and sent it to the palace.

Ning Chen's move was too cruel!

Compared with Ning Chen, the fifth prince's means seemed much worse.

The next day, early court!

Ning Chen was also in the court.

The ministers knelt down and asked Emperor Xuan to pardon the deposed prince's death sentence.

"Your Majesty, although the deposed prince made a mistake, he is the crown prince after all, and he is of royal blood. He cannot be killed."

"Your Majesty, I beg you to pardon the prince's death sentence."

"I beg your Majesty to pardon the deposed prince."

"I second the motion!"

"I also second the motion!"

The officials of the peace party knelt on the ground.

They begged to pardon the deposed prince, and later they were too lazy to even find a reason.

In this game between the monarch and the minister, they lost, and lost completely.

They knew very well that they did not lose to Emperor Xuan, but to Ning Chen.

The right prime minister hung his head, his face as gloomy as water.

This move to calculate Ning Chen was wrong, a big mistake.

Nanyue asked for marriage, first, to force Ning Chen to go to the southern border. Second, to disgust him.

Ning Chen was engaged to the Ninth Princess. Whether the Ninth Princess would eventually marry to Nanyue or not, it would be a shame for Ning Chen.

But did they not expect Ning Chen to play the trick and pit them so badly?

Using the children of these officials as threats, extorting money from them, and forcing them to plead for the deposed prince... This is more disgusting than feeding them shit.

What a deep scheming man.

The right prime minister couldn't help but turn his head to look at Ning Chen. Looking at this handsome and spirited young man, he felt a chill in his heart.

Ning Chen felt something, turned his head and looked into the eyes of the right prime minister, showing him a bright and harmless smile.

But the right prime minister couldn't help shivering.

Emperor Xuan glanced at Ning Chen, his face full of relief.

Then he said: "Since you all have pleaded for the deposed prince, then according to your wishes, the deposed prince will be pardoned from death."

"But the death penalty can be pardoned, but the living crime cannot be escaped... Order the deposed prince to guard the imperial mausoleum, reflect on himself, and repent of his sins."

The officials of the peace faction felt like they had eaten shit, but they still had to kneel down and shout: "Your Majesty is wise!"

At this time, Ning Chen stepped out and said loudly: "Your Majesty, Daxuan is the king and Nanyue is the minister... They are asking to marry the princess, which is a violation of the authority of the emperor and a great disrespect!"

"I am willing to lead the troops to the south and use the sharp swords of the Daxuan soldiers to tell them what the relationship between the king and the minister is?"

After Ning Chen finished speaking, he glanced at the right prime minister.

The right prime minister was so depressed.

Ning Chen's look was telling him... He wanted to go to the southern border, but not because they forced him, but because he wanted to go.

Emperor Xuan coughed tactically and said, "What do you think, my dear ministers?"

The faces of the officials who advocate peace were so ugly. His Majesty has learned bad things and started to disgust people.

Do they dare to stop it now?

Whoever stops it will lose a pair of children.

Li Hanru stepped out and leaned over and said, "Your Majesty, Lord Ning is right. Nanyue is committing a crime of rebellion and is extremely hateful. We should give them a heavy blow to let them understand the way of monarch and minister."

Shen Min stepped out and said, "I second the motion!"

"I also second the motion!"

Emperor Xuan was very pleased, and the corners of his mouth were harder to suppress than AK.

"Since all the dear ministers have no objection, I will approve Ning Chen's request!"

Emperor Xuan looked at Ning Chen and said, "Ning Chen, don't let me down... I will reward you heavily when you return triumphantly!"

"By the way, when you come back this time, you should also marry Huai'an!"

Ning Chen said loudly, "I will definitely live up to your Majesty's expectations."

......

After leaving the court, Ning Chen smiled and looked at the officials who advocated peace.

"My Lords, congratulations, I don't have to visit you one by one anymore."

"Your daughters and granddaughters don't need to prepare for me... My body can't take it. I mean it's too tiring to visit you one by one. I don't mean anything else. Please don't think too much."

The officials of the peace faction were almost glaring with anger, wishing to eat Ning Chen alive.

But they couldn't scold him or beat him. Facing the servile Ning Chen, they had no temper at all.

They could only leave with a sullen face.

Ning Chen chatted with Li Hanru and others for a while, and then walked out of the Golden Palace.

On the way out of the palace, Nie Liang was seen standing on the side of the road.

He walked over and asked curiously, "Commander Nie is not here to protect His Majesty, what is he doing here?"

Nie Liang said, "Waiting for you!"

Ning Chen asked curiously, "What do you want to talk to me about?"

Nie Liang nodded, "Is the Xianlu Wine Shop your property?"

Ning Chen was shocked, "How did you know?"

"His Majesty asked me to check it."

"Why is His Majesty checking this?"

Nie Liang said, "His Majesty wants Xianlu to become the imperial wine, so naturally he will investigate everything clearly."

"You are too careless. It turns out that Jin Qingsheng is your guard. You can find out easily."

"If you want to do business, at least use a new face! According to the Great Xuan Law, officials are not allowed to do business... Be careful, once someone knows, they will definitely impeach you."

Ning Chen didn't care, "Officials are not allowed to do business, but it doesn't say that family members can't do business."

"The shopkeepers of Xianlu Wine Shop are actually Yudie and Zisu."

Nie Liang frowned, "But you didn't confess your relationship with Xianlu Wine Shop to His Majesty, this is deceiving the emperor, and those censors can still impeach you."

Ning Chen thought for a while, "You haven't reported to His Majesty yet?"

Nie Liang shook his head.

Ning Chen smiled and said, "That's easy! I will confess to His Majesty in the afternoon, and you will report later."

Nie Liang nodded.

"I'll send a few jars of fairy dew to your house later."

"Don't hurt me."

Ning Chen smiled and said, "Fifty-year cellar storage, do you want it?"

"Fifty-year cellar storage?" Nie Liang's eyes lit up and he couldn't help swallowing his saliva, "That's what you gave to Nie Feng, I don't know anything."

Ning Chen smiled and said, "Speaking of Nie Feng, what has he been busy with recently?"

Nie Liang said, "It's still the same, studying hard while serving my parents."

Ning Chen smiled and said, "I'm not trying to discourage him. Nie Feng has failed many times. At his current age, it will be even more difficult for him to get into high school in the future."

Nie Liang smiled bitterly, "How can I not know? But he can't do anything except studying."

"I have a job here that is very suitable for Nie Feng... His Majesty ordered me to build a nursery to take in homeless children, please The teacher taught them to read and write, and cultivated talents for the court. "

"Nie Feng is well-read, so teaching is just right for him... This is a nursery school opened by His Majesty's order, and it is linked to the royal family. If Nie Feng does a good job, it will not be difficult for him to get a position... Even if he can't get it, he will have many students all over the world in the future."

Nie Liang was excited, "Is this, is this appropriate?"

Ning Chen smiled and said, "What's inappropriate about this? You two brothers are both working for His Majesty, and His Majesty can see your loyalty more."

Nie Liang was full of gratitude, and bowed: "Thank you, Lord, for your great kindness..."

"Stop, stop... You are being so polite, do we still need to be so polite? Go back and tell Nie Feng about this, I have something else to do, so I'm leaving first!"

Ning Chen waved his hand and turned away.

Nie Liang looked at Ning Chen's back, his eyes full of gratitude.
