In the study, Shangguan Yu and Song Jingchen sat opposite each other. He was mainly here today for the intermediate court.
Now, be it the ministers in the imperial court, the concubines in the harem, or lords like them, they could not see the emperor.!!
“The imperial physician said that my father needs to recuperate. I’m a little worried.” Shangguan Yu sighed.
Song Jingchen said, “I’ve already been suspended.”
So what was the point of telling him this?
Shangguan Yu was speechless.
“I haven’t asked you. On the day of my father’s accident, did you bring the old prince into the palace because you found out that he was the mastermind behind the kidnapping of young girls?”
That day, Song Jingchen only said that he had found out that the old prince was a key figure, but he didn’t mention the details. Later on, when the incident at the Fragrant Teahouse broke out, everyone naturally thought that the key figure Song Jingchen mentioned was equivalent to the mastermind.
Song Jingchen looked at him deeply, but he wasn’t satisfied. He told him what the old prince and Shangguan Pu had done.
A look of shock flashed across Shangguan Yu’s face. After confirming that he was not joking, a rare anger rose on his face. “He’s the prince of a country. How can he disregard human lives for his own selfish desires?”
Song Jingchen said, “That’s right. If the truth wasn’t in front of us, who would have thought?”
“Since Imperial Granduncle went to confess, why would he assassinate my father?” At this point, he suddenly paused and looked at Song Jingchen in disbelief. “The reason why you didn’t say anything that day was because you suspected that the culprit who attacked my father was my eldest brother?”
For his eldest brother to attack his father in the palace filled with the imperial guards, it was obvious that the imperial guards had already sided with him.
If Song Jingchen had told the truth at that time, not only would his life be in danger, but even those who heard it would have been imprisoned.
Song Jingchen agreed tacitly.
“No wonder I keep feeling that something is wrong. Every time I want to enter Yangxin Hall these past few days, I’ve been stopped. I think my father must have been imprisoned by Eldest Brother.” Shangguan Yu’s face was filled with worry. He smiled bitterly and said, “No matter what, he’s our biological father.
I really didn’t expect him to do this.”
Song Jingchen didn’t say anything. There were commoner families who fell out with each other in order to fight for the family assets, let alone the emperor’s family.
The study fell silent for a moment. After a long time, Shangguan Yu said, “No matter what, the most important thing now is to save my father. We can’t let him continue like this.”
He looked at Song Jingchen and continued, “Unfortunately, we don’t have any evidence. More than half of the officials in the intermediate court are on his side now.”
Song Jingchen said, “You’re wrong. It’s you, not us!”
Shangguan Yu was stunned. “Ah Chen, you…
Song Jingchen said calmly, “I wanted to find out who framed Ah Han and the
Song family. ”
“But now that I think about it, so what if the case is overturned? My father and grandfather won’t come back to life.”
“In the end, their deaths were all caused by that person, so I won’t save him. As for who will be the emperor, I don’t care.”
Shangguan Yu disagreed. “But he attacked innocent citizens without any mercy. If such a person sits in that position, how will the world be safe in the future? How will the citizens be safe?”
“That’s still your Shangguan family’s world. What do the citizens of your Shangguan family have to do with me?”
These words were too cold-blooded. Shangguan Yu said in disappointment, as if this was the first time he had met Song Jingchen, “You’ve already been blinded by hatred. You shouldn’t be like this.”
“It’s just that you’ve been unwilling to admit it. Our positions have been different from the beginning, right?”
From the moment the emperor attacked his family, he was destined to be enemies with the royal family.
He would not give up on revenge because of his former good friend, Shangguan Yu. It was also impossible for Shangguan Yu to watch him attack his father.
Therefore, Song Jingchen felt that it was a little ridiculous for Shangguan Yu to come and tell him that he wanted to save the emperor.
He seemed to have hit the nail on the head. Shangguan Yuclosed his eyes and took a deep breath. “You’re right. I was thinking too much.”
He stood up and walked out. He thought of something and paused. “I forgot to mention that I came out of the palace just now. The empress dowager has returned to the palace.”
Not long after Shangguan Yu left, Shen Yijia carefully stuck her head in.
“Hubby.”
Song Jingchen waved at her.
Shen Yijia squeezed through the gap in the door and walked up to Song Jingchen.
Song Jingchen rubbed her head in amusement. “Did you hear everything just
Shen Yijia blinked and felt a little guilty. She had indeed eavesdropped.
Song Jingchen chuckled. “Actually, those are my true thoughts.”
He really didn’t care about the citizens of Great Xia. He even wanted to see Great Xia, which had been protected by his grandfather for his entire life, fall apart. He wanted the useless emperor to have a taste of dying at his son’s hands.
However, he couldn’t do that. Apart from his grandfather’s instructions before he died, it was also because he had someone to protect.
He did not want the people he cared about to live in troubled times.
Shen Yijia reached out and patted his back. “That’s what I thought too.”
She didn’t feel a sense of belonging to Great Xia. Even if she did, it was because Song Jingchen was here. She only cared because Song Jingchen cared.
If Song Jingchen didn’t care anymore, why would she care?
Although Shen Yijia didn’t say anything else, Song Jingchen inexplicably understood.
Song Jingchen’s heart swelled and he subconsciously tightened his grip.
He looked down at the person smiling like a flower in his arms and said hoarsely, “Jiajia…”
The two heads gradually approached each other, so close that they could feel each other’s breath on their faces.
Suddenly, Sister Huan’s roar came from outside the door. “Big Brother,
Sister-in-law, it’s time to eat.”
Shen Yijia thought to herself, “I forgot that I’m here to call my beautiful husband for dinner!”
