Fantasy: Starting Out as a Gigolo, Born a Confucian Sage

Chapter 172: In Court, Jingzhao Yin Takes Sides

"His Highness is really well-planned to win a victory thousands of miles away."

In a deep royal palace, the scribe in black looked at the man in python robe beside him and cupped his hands.

"This time Shen Wuming is involved in the diplomatic relations between the two countries. It only takes a little effort to convict him."

"Even if you can't kill him quickly, you can still put him in jail for ten or eight years."

The man in the python robe smiled proudly, "It's just some small tricks, it's nothing!"

"This is the capital city. The capital city does not allow such awesome people to exist. As I said, it will be useless even if the saint comes."

The scribe in black flattered him again, and then raised his doubts.

"But... he is the son-in-law of General Guangwu after all, and it seems that he also has a relationship with Duke Rong Guo."

"If we don't deal with it quickly, I'm afraid we will have long nights and many dreams. When the time comes..."

"I have already arranged it."

The man in the python robe was calm and composed, "As long as you enter Jingzhao Mansion, I have the final say."

"Just one blow of the killing stick can break all his bones and leave him disabled."

"And what I want is not just that he is involved in the diplomatic relations between the two countries, but I want to slap him to death."

The scribe in black looked full of admiration and asked, "I wonder what your highness has in mind?"

The man in the python robe looked complacent, "It's very simple. I want to convict him of assassinating the Princess of Jiaxing."

"It's just to disturb the princess, and at most it will make him suffer some torture, but if it's to assassinate the envoy, then..."

"Then he will definitely die." The scribe in black added, "Even if General Guangwu comes in person, it will be useless."

"Now the Yan State is winning every year in the north, and it has even annexed overseas peninsulas, and its power has expanded to the extreme."

"The imperial court is planning to form an alliance with the Southern Tang Dynasty to jointly fight against the Yan State. The alliance between the two countries is crucial."

"Anyone who destroys the alliance is an enemy of the imperial court and will never be able to atone for his sins."

"That's right, that's right!" The man in the python robe laughed, "Hahahaha."

The maniacal laughter resounded in the depths of the palace, like a ghost.

"Bang!"

Jingzhao Yin He Wenguang stood high above, overlooking Shen Wuming in the court hall, picked up the gavel tree and slapped it hard.

"Who are you here? What did you do? Why don't you give me an explanation quickly?"

The government officials on both sides also looked solemn at this time. They raised their killing sticks and banged them heavily on the floor.

"mighty--"

Shen Wuming had only seen this kind of trial scene in TV series before, but he didn't expect it to happen to him.

A staff member dressed as a master came forward and said fiercely to him, "Why don't you kneel down in court?"

Shen Wuming smiled faintly, "I am sinking Wuming, a man from Dingzhou, the son of Yong'an County."

"According to the laws of our dynasty, a person with fame and title can refuse to worship an official before being convicted!"

The master grinned, "The law is the law, but the court has its own rules."

"After I go to court, there will be no one to lift my head, and no one to kneel down for me."

While he was talking, the master wanted to come up and grab Shen Wuming's clothes, but Shen Wuming just glanced at him lightly.

All over his body, a pure white and flawless aura of righteousness surged into the sky, shaking the master back repeatedly.

"You are so impudent that you dare to hurt people in court."

Jingzhao Yin He Wenguang was furious when he saw this. He picked up the gavel and slapped it, and then yelled at the government officials.

"Come here, greet him first and teach him the rules of the yamen, and then I will come to review the case."

"yes."

When the officials on both sides agreed, several people rushed up and wanted to detain Shen Wuming.

"etc."

Shen Wuming just curled his lips slightly, looked at He Wenguang above him mockingly, and spoke slowly.

"I dare to ask Mr. He, are the rules of your court better than the rules of the court?"

When he spoke, he secretly mobilized Haoran's righteousness and his voice was extremely loud.

It resounded like thunder throughout the yamen.

When the government office was examining the case, there were many people watching, all the time outside the door.

When Master Master said this just now, his voice was not loud, and people outside could not hear it clearly.

But at this time, when Shen Wuming was lucky, the common people heard about it and started talking about it.

He even looked at He Wenguang with a strange look, as if he was watching his choice.

He Wenguang's face froze.

Just say some things behind your back, and no one will take it online anyway.

And those who can be manipulated by him will eventually be thrown into the prison of Jingzhao Mansion Yamen.

You will not be eligible to apply.

But Shen Wuming was putting him on the fire by acting like this. Do you dare to agree to this?

If he dares to agree today, tomorrow the people from the Yushitai will smell the smell and rush over, and they will definitely report it to the emperor.

"You...don't talk nonsense."

He Wenguang's face darkened, "Once you enter this courtroom, just cooperate with me in investigating the case."

"Then I dare to ask Mr. He..."

Shen Wuming's voice was still loud, "Although I am also a commoner, but thanks to His Majesty's grace, I was lucky enough to be elected."

"Now that I can barely count myself to have achieved fame, do I need to kneel down in this court?"

Many of the people watching outside were scholars, some of whom had won the exam, and some who had not.

Now everyone is watching.

If He Wenguang makes Shen Wuming kneel down now, then they will have to go back to the academy to promote it.

Especially those students.

Since the founding of the Han Dynasty, students of the Imperial Academy have been in charge of public opinion and have organized demonstrations at every turn.

He Wenguang is well aware of the power behind the scenes.

Facing Shen Wuming's questioning, he said with a dark face, "If you want to kneel, kneel. Can I stop you?"

"Then I won't kneel."

Shen Wuming shrugged, "Now if you have anything to ask, just ask directly. I will definitely cooperate."

"Humph!"

He Wenguang snorted coldly, and then said, "Why did you assassinate the Princess of Jiaxing just now?"

He spoke a decisive blow.

He didn't discuss whether Shen Wuming disturbed the Princess or killed the horse.

Instead, he labeled it as an assassination.

Shen Wuming looked at him deeply. It is undeniable that He Wenguang is definitely one of the people behind the scenes.

He took sides right from the start.

"I don't know what you mean, sir. I don't even know the Princess Jiaxing."

Shen Wuming smiled faintly, "According to the system of this dynasty, if you report a case, there must be a victim present."

"You said I assassinated the Princess Jiaxing. I wonder when the Princess Jiaxing is now? Are you willing to come forward to identify her?"

He Wenguang was furious when he saw him so unruly. He picked up the gavel and slammed it hard again.

"Shen Wuming."

He Wenguang roared, "Whatever I ask, you answer. I won't allow you to confuse the public with lies here."

"If you don't cooperate, I will beat you with dozens of boards for disturbing the court."

"How did I disturb the court?" Shen Wuming shrugged, "I'm suing you for defamation."
