Help!The US-strong villain was blackmailed by me!

Chapter 45

Shen Jinyu rested at home for more than half a month. During this time, he settled in a place in the suburbs, which was full of hidden guards he had chosen for himself.

He hid for more than half a month because of his unhealed injury, but now he couldn't hide any longer. He had no choice but to change into an official uniform and went to court. Before leaving the door, he asked about the newly acquired Guard Lin Qingqiu,
"When will the people who went to Chuanze County come back?"

"According to the letter sent back a few days ago, it should arrive in the imperial city today." Lin Qingqiu helped Shen Jinyu fasten the bandage behind the official hat, and replied.

Shen Jinyu: "Well, bring me to see you as soon as you come back,"

Lin Qingqiu: "Yes, my lord."

Lin Qingqiu had a bumpy official career.A few years ago, he had been taking the first place in the martial arts examination, but his family was poor, he had no money to bribe the examiner, and he didn't have the courtesy to send it to the management. As a result, he was so good at martial arts that he didn't even get a title after five years of examination.After his parents passed away, he no longer had any extra money to support him to continue the exam. In desperation, he had to be recruited into a small county government office as an errand, and worked as a coolie for two years.Because he refused to go along with the county magistrate to oppress the poor people, he was kicked out, and he had no choice but to go to the coolie market to sell coolies.

When Shen Jinyu passed by by chance, he spotted Lin Qingqiu sitting among a group of rough men at a glance. His demeanor was incompatible with those people, so Shen Jinyu sent someone to ask, and immediately took him under his wing after learning about his situation.

Lin Qingqiu's talent has not been met for so many years, and now Shen Jinyu appreciates it, which can be regarded as a talent that can be used.He has a stubborn personality, and when he followed Shen Jinyu, he followed him wholeheartedly, especially because Shen Jinyu was kind to him, and just thinking about this relationship, Lin Qingqiu would definitely be more loyal than anyone else.

Therefore, Shen Jinyu was always short of a personal attendant, so Lin Qingqiu was allowed to sit.

It was the first day of court today, and all the ministers in the court were very curious about Shen Jinyu.The adults with the second-rank official rank stood in the front, and Shen Jinyu stood in front, with appreciating eyes behind him.

All the ministers had finished talking, but no one came forward to listen to it. The emperor Lu Tao went around and said, "My dearest ministers, what's the important thing to listen to?"

An adult on Shen Jinyu's right side hesitated for a moment, then came forward and said, "I have something to report!"

Lu Tao: "Speak!"

"It just so happened that Master Shen, the captain of the Potian Army, was here today, so I wanted to talk about my own thoughts. Master Shen was originally a disciple of Changlin Villa. Because of this reason, the people and the court have quite objections to the position of this military lieutenant, and they think that Master Shen’s means of killing the owner of the villa is disgraceful. Please think carefully about whether Master Shen is suitable for being a military lieutenant. People's hearts!"

Hearing this, Shen Jinyu glanced sideways at the adult who spoke. Shen Jinyu had met this person before, Fang Changan, Minister of the Household Department, was an extremely pedantic old man, rigid and conservative.

"Master Fang, the person Master Shen killed was the enemy who killed his parents. It is human nature to avenge his blood. How can it be dishonorable? Besides, my original order was that whoever has the ability to let Chang Lin belong to the court , anyone can take the position of lieutenant, Mr. Shen is capable, why would he be disgraceful?"

Fang Chang'an: "Your Majesty, it is indeed human nature to kill one's enemies, but as far as I know, Lord Shen also killed dozens of innocent disciples of Changlin that night. Redressing the child's grievance at the gate of the Potian Army, Mr. Shen can kill the enemy, but he shouldn't kill those innocent people!"

Shen Jinyu rolled his eyes. What a big deal he thought he was disgraceful. He never thought it was here. Shen Jinyu turned around and looked directly at Fang Changan, and said, "Master Fang doesn't know something. If I don't kill those disciples, those disciples will be killed." Then he will kill me, the wounds those disciples slashed on my body have not healed yet, Master Fang, do you want to see if it is true or not?"

"Master Shen, those disciples have killed dozens of people. If everyone comes to chop you, then Master Shen may not be able to stand here today. Most of the disciples who died may not be close to Master Shen. If you were killed with a single knife, Master Shen can fight back, but it's not enough to kill someone?" Fang Chang'an babbled on and on, Shen Jinyu had a headache, Shen Jinyu interrupted him impatiently,

"Those who made troubles and filed grievances, I have already paid 50 taels of silver to the family. Don't Mr. Fang know?"

"Master Shen, how can human life be counted in money?" Fang Changan still refused to give up, and Shen Jinyu's patience was exhausted.

"Master Fang is so persistent, he must be a very kind person, right? How about this, if Mr. Fang has no place to express his kindness, he will go and take those who have complained of grievances to the mansion to treat them well, and they are still resting at the foot of the city gate. Many beggars, the day has not yet warmed up, Mr. Fang also went to pick them up, and treated them well. What do you say is disgraceful for my official methods, but they are just envious of me being able to easily sit on the position of the second rank, those objections I'm afraid that my lord will not be able to reach my position if he tries to find ways for half his life."

Fang Chang'an: "Master Shen, what do you mean?"

"Yes, Mr. Shen, what do you mean by that?"

A few officials followed suit, and Shen Jinyu knew at a glance that these people had objections to him in private.

The court hall suddenly became noisy, some watched the excitement, some flattered Shen Jinyu and spoke for him, and some followed Fang Changan to question.

Lu Tao's ears hurt from the noise, and he yelled on the dragon chair, "Okay!"

As soon as the voice came out, the court immediately fell silent.

Shen Jinyu turned around, Fang Changan also lowered his head, and expressed his grievance to Lu Tao, "Your Majesty, I didn't do what I said to Master Shen, but I have too many objections in private, I just want to ask for clarification."

"Lord Fang, I know you cherish your life, but what you don't know is that Master Shen was often bullied by those disciples in Changlin Villa because he didn't have the support of his parents. The bullying for more than ten years is no different from murder. Master Shen sits For this position, I must have inspected these aspects, and I think there is no problem, does Mr. Fang still have any problems?"

"This!" Fang Chang'an was speechless for a while, and finally said: "No! But I still want to say that the Heaven Breaking Army involves military power, and please think twice, Your Majesty!"

"I know it in my heart!" Lu Tao was often annoyed by these old men, so he suppressed the matter with a few words and left.

Many details of Shen Jinyu's ascension could not be revealed, so Lu Tao could only put pressure on it perfunctorily.

It is now March, the vernal equinox is approaching, the sun is warm and warm, and the people in the sun are very comfortable.Walking out of the court hall, Shen Jinyu looked up at the sky. There was a clear blue sky with thick white clouds hanging in the sky. The sun reflected dazzling light on the glazed tiles. The weather is getting warmer. Qi Yue, where are you?

He clearly swore to himself before that he would explain to her well when the matter was resolved, but he didn't want to lose all news of her after that night.
