Chapter 235
Twilight enveloped the sky and the earth, and the rain seemed to have stopped.

Fu Junze closed the paper umbrella, the rain was very cold, like a cold corpse on the ground.

The scene in front of him overlapped with that of five years ago, and he had actually experienced it before. When his relative passed away, he wished he could go with him at that time.

But Yan Wang just let him go, leaving his father alone on Huangquan Road.

There was no sadness, no joy, and no pity in his eyes.

Seeing that the matter is over, it will be over when the matter is reported to the emperor tomorrow for him to make a decision.

……

Five years of consecutive homicides were not revealed until today.

The government and the public were shocked. This Lu Churen was also a ruthless person. He killed so many people and buried him in the back garden. Thanks to his strong mind, he is not afraid of ghosts coming to him at night to claim his life.

There are also some courtiers, all with distressed faces, they have all been to the back garden of the Xuanpinghou Mansion, and praised the beautiful flowers in their mansion.

Unexpectedly, the flowers in their back garden were all raised by human flesh and blood. No wonder they were so red as to bleed, and their hair stood on end for a moment.

It's like when you admire the flowers, in fact, those 25 ghosts are all staring at you.

The most angry one was Cheng Shengquan: "Preach my will, tie Lu Churen to the execution ground and cut him to pieces!"

"The Marquis of Xuanping took back his title, confiscated all his property, and demoted him to common people. The descendants of the Lu family are not allowed to participate in the imperial examination to become officials."

The decree was passed on, and soon there were officials to do it, and he looked at Shen Guogong again: "Zhongyong, let Ming Nan go to be on duty tomorrow, he did a good thing this time, if it wasn't for him , the murders of the past five years will not be uncovered."

Shen Guogong replied: "It's just a blind cat and a dead mouse. After the court, the old minister will go and tell him."

After the court was over, Shen Zhongyong called Shen Mingnan to his study.

His feelings for his son were complex, with disgust mixed with joy.

The disgust is that he is the son of Gongyi Yunmei.

The joy is that he looks like Gongyi Yunmei.

Every time I see him, it makes him very entangled.

"The emperor asked you to go on duty tomorrow."

"Yes."

"He said you did a good job this time."

"Ah."

The father and son asked and answered indifferently.

Shen Guogong sighed: "You go out."

Shen Mingnan didn't speak, turned around and left.

It wasn't until the sound of closing the door that Shen Guogong looked in the direction he left.

Shen Mingnan left Shen Guogong's courtyard and happened to meet Shen Xiuyu who was looking for Shen Guogong.

The eyes of the two met, Shen Mingnan glanced at him lightly and was about to go around.

"Third brother."

Shen Xiuyu called out to stop him.

Shen Mingnan's steps paused slightly, he didn't like this big brother who was plotting to kill him.

Shen Xiuyu smiled and said, "Tomorrow the crown prince will receive Xirong Guoshi Hua Mo in the water and clouds, are you going?"

"Don't go, big brother just play on his own."

Shen Mingnan knew that Shen Xiuyu was Cheng Yu's man, he was like a clown, and he hadn't settled with him for the matter in Luohua Village.

Hearing this, Shen Xiuyu turned his body slightly to let Shen Mingnan pass.

Then he went to see his father, because he was on duty in Jingzhao Mansion, Shen Guogong just told him to take good care of Lu Churen, and don't let him commit suicide.

After Shen Xiuyu answered, Shen Guogong waved him back.

It wasn't until the study door was closed that Shen Xiuyu breathed out a foul breath. Did he treat him like a dog when he came and went?
His eyes were gloomy, and he looked back at the study. Sooner or later, he would return this humiliation.

So he went back to his courtyard, and the servant Guanyan handed him a letter.

"My lord, someone handed you a letter."

Shen Xiuyu took it, and Guanyan withdrew.

When he had opened it from beginning to end, he lit a candle with a torch, and laid the letter on it until it burned to ashes.

He patted the dust scattered on his body, and said to Guanyan outside: "If anyone asks me, just say that I went to Jingzhao Mansion to take care of the prisoners, and I won't be back until later."

Guan Yan nodded in agreement, and watched Shen Xiuyu disappear.

Somewhere in a theater.

King Duan held jade walnuts in his hands, shaking his head and enjoying listening to the drama below.

The sung on the stage is "The Civet Cat for the Prince", which is one of Duan Wang's favorite plays.

"His Royal Highness Duan Wang."

Duan Wang half-opened his eyes when he heard the voice, glanced at the person coming, and pointed to the seat opposite: "Sit down when you come."

It wasn't until the end of the play that Wang Duan opened his eyes full of enthusiasm.

"Xiu Yu, what do you think of this play?"

It was Shen Xiuyu who came to see King Duan, he was not interested in opera.

On the contrary, he felt that the babbling was disturbing, but he still had to compliment him: "My minister is stupid and can't hear anything."

Duan Wang chuckled: "Since ancient times, wealth has moved people's hearts, and so has power."

"You see, this concubine exchanged another concubine's son with a skinned civet cat, so that her own son became the crown prince smoothly, but in the end, her own son died of illness, and it was not because she made the replaced one the crown prince."

With the sound of jade walnut "da da da", Wang Duan glanced around the opera building, and then fell on Shen Xiuyu's face, he said with a smile: "I think you look like that civet cat, and Shen Mingnan is the one who was replaced. The "Prince" who is leaving."

Shen Xiuyu looked at King Duan, didn't you hear what he said?
Before Shen Mingnan came back, he was the eldest son and future heir of Duke Shen's mansion.

But when Shen Mingnan came back, everything that belonged to him was taken away.

"Xiu Yu, in fact, you don't have to be a civet cat." Duan Wang said indifferently: "This king knows that it was Shen Mingnan who stole your life, and everything in the Duke's Mansion is yours."

Shen Xiuyu clasped his hands tightly, then relaxed, he smiled wryly: "How come Xiuyu doesn't understand what His Highness said? But things have happened, unless Shen Mingnan dies, otherwise the position of son of the world will never fall on me. "

"No." Duan Wang denied: "The position of the son of the world can always be yours, but you can't be cruel."

Shen Xiuyu's eyes flickered slightly, and he fell silent.

The corners of King Duan's lips curled slightly: "Your position as the eldest son was taken away by Mrs. Shen herself."

"And if she lives for one day, you don't want to get involved in the position of the son of the world. The old lady of this king, Guan Shen, is in good health, and there will be no problem in living another ten years. Ten years is too long, how do you know what will happen in ten years?" What? Maybe Shen Mingnan beat Shen Zhongyong to death and became the head of the Shen family. At that time, you, your mother, and your useless brother, do you think he can accommodate you?"

King Duan stepped on his painful foot every sentence, how could Shen Xiuyu not know?
Otherwise, he wouldn't have sent someone to assassinate him when he was going to Qi Yuan, and he almost succeeded...just a little bit...

Duan Wang saw that he was moved, and a cold light flashed in his eyes: "Xiu Yu, those who achieve great things must not be afraid of death and bloodshed, and they must be ruthless. People who use love will not end well."

"The death of Mrs. Shen is when you brought down Shen Mingnan."

Shen Xiuyu closed her eyes slightly. In fact, Mrs. Shen was very kind to their grandchildren. Although she didn't like their mothers, she cared about them together. Of course, Shen Mingnan was the one she favored the most.

A bitch, I don't know why she cares so much.

Shen Xiuyu lowered his eyes, hiding his emotions: "But what should I do? My grandmother is not such an easy person to deal with."

Duan Wang smiled in his eyes: "Don't you still have a stupid sister?"
