    Chapter 67 Chu Di Visits the Lin House

    After sending off the uncle of the Chu family, Shen Shaoguang turned out the books sent by Lin Shaoyin again, old memories surging in his mind, tears dripping on the yellowed paper, smudged.

    Perhaps it was because she received her body and memory, and inherited her fate in Ye Ting's torment, Shen Shaoguang has never been able to separate herself from the original A Li, and occasionally Zhuang Zhou Mengdie would appear when she was half asleep at dawn. I don't know which of the Tang Dynasty's daughter of a sinner, A Li, and the 21st century's Shen Shaoguang is her.

    Shen Shaoguang sighed softly.

    "Tuk! Tuk!"

    Shen Shaoguang wiped his face and raised his head, it was Yu San.

    "Huh?" Shen Shaoguang was surprised. He was busy all day long, why didn't he take a break during this time?

    Yu San came to the chair opposite Shen Shaoguang and sat down, looked at the bookcase in front of her, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Are you the daughter of the old servant of the Ministry of Rites?"

    Shen Shaoguang nodded and raised his eyebrows to look at him.

    "My old master is Li Xu, the fourth son of King Wu."

    Shen Shaoguang was stunned, he didn't expect such a relationship.

    "In winter, when Li Xianggong and Lin Shaoyin were talking about old things, you didn't seem to be looking right at that time. I didn't think much about it. This time, when Chu Langjun came, you called Uncle, and I guessed it." Yu San explained.

    Shen Shaoguang nodded.

    "Shilang is a little older than you. When the accident happened to King Wu, he was not yet sixteen years old, and he should have been exiled. I heard that because of your Shen family, there was a lot of discussion in the court. It's over." With his delicate appearance... I'm afraid he can't stand the pain of exile, so the Shen family can be regarded as his savior.

    "Although I am a commoner, at first there were people in the imperial court to supervise it, and of course the King of Wu took care of it in the old days. Later, as time went on, supervision became lax. After we ascended the throne, we moved and changed places—he didn't want to either. Take care of the old people again."

    Yu San remembered his beautiful peach blossom eyes squinting and smirking, "When he saw it, he told some old stories about the palace, rehabilitated him, and urged him to make progress... Could I still fail the imperial examinations?" Yu San felt the same way, but now he I can't help but think, if it was a little lady, I'm afraid she wouldn't let the negativity go along with the tide like Shiro did, and she would have to buy a big ship for shipping if she couldn't get it right.

    Yu San pulled back his thoughts and said to Shen Shaoguang, "He is very grateful to Shilang Shen."

    Shen Shaoguang raised the corner of his mouth and smiled, not grateful, what's the point? It's not important to my father, and it's even less important to myself.

    Shen Shaoguang was puzzled. Yu San was young, and Yu knew these things so clearly. He thought that he was someone who was very close to Shiro, so how could he be sold? What else happened? Thinking of what he said about changing a table of fish feasts, Shen Shaoguang hesitated for a moment, and finally asked, "Is this Shiro really as unruly as you said?"

    Yu San knew what she was asking, and was silent for a while, then said, "He didn't trade me for a fish feast." Instead, he sent it to someone directly.

    Seeing his expression, Shen Shaoguang didn't ask any more.

    Shen Shaoguang packed the books, and Yu San helped her pack them too. After finishing packing, Yu San finally asked, "Because of King Wu's affairs, your family was destroyed, do you hate them?"

    Lin Shaoyin also asked similar questions, but one asked whether he complained about his father, the other asked whether he was angry with King Wu, and Shen Shaoguang's answer was the same.

    Yu San seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

    Shen Shaoguang patted his sleeve and said with a smile, "Even if I blame King Wu, it has nothing to do with you."

    Yu San glared at her and lifted the box, "Where?"

    "Put it together with Lin Shaoyin's screen."

    After hearing the words "Lin Shaoyin", Yu San opened his mouth and wanted to ask her, but he didn't ask, he just moved the box and left.

    When Lin Yan came back from Jingzhao Mansion, he heard from the people at the door that a Mr. Chu was coming and was invited by Butler Zhou to serve tea in the outer study.

    In the morning, Lin Yan asked someone to send a famous thorn to Mr. Xiliu. Because he lived in Li Xiang's mansion, the famous thorn was sent to Li's mansion. Regarding the matter of the Duke and King Wu, didn't expect him to come directly.

    In fact, the key to Duke Shen's case lies with King Wu, but it is really impossible to find out the files of such a major case of imperial conspiracy as King Wu's case. Mr. Xiliu used to be the minister of punishment and should know the case in detail - I'm afraid that he was too involved with King Wu back then and would need to avoid suspicion during the trial.

    Lin Yan quickly walked out to the study.

    "Mr. Chu waited for a long time, Yan came back late." Lin Yan crossed his hands in salute.

    Looking at Lin Yan who was very respectful, Chu Di smiled and said, "I met Shaoyin twice, and Shaoyin was so polite, I really didn't dare to do it."

    Chu Di imagined that if Shen Wu didn't have an accident, he would show A Lixiang about his marriage at this time. Even if this kid was more respectful, he would have to help him pick his nose and eyes, and maybe send someone to investigate him. ...

    Seeing the master's return, the housekeeper Zhou saluted and left, and the maid served tea and quietly exited.

    Lin Chu and the two sat opposite each other.

    Lin Yan got straight to the point: "Yan wants to ask Mr. something old."

    Chu Di smiled: "Shao Yin, please speak."

    "About the case of Shen Gong who lived in this house ten years ago, do you still remember?" Lin Yan looked solemn.

    "Shen Wu is a good friend of a certain friend, how could he not remember? It's just—why did Shao Yin ask about this case? Because he lived in his old house, he was curious? A certain heard that Shao Yin also ran to rescue Duke Cui back then, so he was very curious about Shen Wu. I feel the same way, want to know more clearly?" Chu Di stared at Lin Yan.

    "Neither, it's for a friend."

    "Friends? Is it a man or a woman?" Chu Di raised his eyebrows.

    Lin Yan also looked at Chu Di. This Mr. Chu's sharp eyes seemed to have recognized A Li, and even knew his friendship with A Li. Mr. Xiliu really lived up to his reputation - and he was willing to come to her door, when it was also for her .

    Lin Yan's expression warmed, "Sir, wait a moment."

    Lin Yan went out and instructed Liu Chang to go to the inner study to pick up the box containing the files, and after a while, he picked it up. Lin Yan put the box in front of Chu Di, "This is the file of Duke Shen's case."

    Chu Di's expression was relaxed, but he was quite attentive.

    "Sir, do you want to come from Shenji's restaurant?"

    Chu Di didn't go around with him anymore: "How did Shao Yin know that Shen Ji's little lady is the daughter of Shen Rangzhi? She didn't say it herself, did she?"

    "When she went out of the palace, a certain was in Anfumen and checked her public inspection."

    Chu Di: "..." I really didn't see you wrong! Oh, look at the official test...

    Lin Yan was also a little embarrassed himself, pursed his lips, and then saluted: "I also ask for your help, sir."

    Chu Di looked at Lin Yanwei's embarrassed but very serious face, as well as the slap in the face of the strong buy and sell just now, and suddenly felt that this Shao Yin was still interesting, not as cold and serious as he had shown.

    Chu Di lowered his head and picked up the file to look at it. The relaxed expression just now faded, and his eyes were full of sadness.

    "At that time, someone secretly told King Wu that the former emperor did not have three divisions, so he directly sent the Imperial Army to search the palace of King Wu, and detained a group of people from the palace. The trial was not in the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple, but we also have our own sources. There are some things, but to be honest, which palace does not have any illegal things that go out from the palace? At that time, we speculated that the king of Wu should be just reprimanded and punished. If he won't win the title, who would think that His Majesty would kill?"

    "I also used some personal relationships to investigate, saying that Dadeqing Miaofu Yuan, who was beside the late emperor, watched the sky at night, saw the anti-star, and calculated that the anti-star should be on King Wu."

    "At that time, most of the ministers in the court dissuaded them, and even more like Shen Wu, who tried to make a statement before the elixir, but the first emperor was arbitrary..." At that time, the court was in chaos. , arrogant and rebellious temperament, although there are steadfast people in the DPRK, there are also those who fish in troubled waters, are flattering, and even have bad intentions. If it is not for the late emperor who took medicine and died, perhaps the country would not be a country now.

    Although Lin Yan entered office late and started a low-ranking official position, he had also experienced the dynasty of the late emperor and knew the chaos at that time.

    "Although the Department of Punishment also participated in the later stage of King Wu's case, I was suspended early to avoid suspicion because of my relationship with King Wu. As for the Taoist priest's intentions, whether there are other people behind it, and whether there are other people involved, the mystery behind these I don't know." Chu Di patted the file in his hand, "This is the first time I've seen it."

    Although you can find some clues in this file, it is only a "attack case" file after all, and there are many ambiguities in it. With this little thing, time has changed. Drifting around, the key is that the emperor is still pressing, and it is difficult to find out what irony evidence can be used to reverse the verdict.

    Lin Yan nodded, "Thank you, Mr. Chu, for telling me what happened."

    "The son of Shaoyin's aristocratic family is already wearing a red robe. If Shen Wu can't overturn the case, what is Shaoyin's plan?" Chu Di remembered the purpose of his trip.

    "Ali is still the same Ai."

    Chu Di was choked by him, laughed, and said after a while, "Shao Yin is a caring person."

    "I'm just afraid that Miss Shen will worry too much."

    Chu Di nodded, she was indeed worried and stubborn, and you have to grind.

    After all these years, Chu Di has taken a lot of things lightly, and even if the case is overturned, the three Shen family will not survive. Although Lin Shaoyin looks colder, he is still reliable and sincere. Chu Di feels that it is not a bad thing for A Li to continue to open a small wine shop here, hehe, children...

    The twilight drum was played outside, and Chu Di stood up, "Thanks for Shaoyin's hospitality. I met Shaoyin today and listened to Shaoyin's words, and I felt a lot of relief."

    Lin Yan hurriedly saluted, "Thank you, Mr. Yan, for your teaching."

    The two exchanged a word or two, Chu Di walked out, and Lin Yan hesitated for a while, "Sir, Yan has something to ask for help—"

    Chu Di turned his head sideways, "Shao Yin, please speak."

    "Someone doesn't know the name of Mrs. Shen."

    Chu Di took a step, wood! Don't you have to ask Axiu for this kind of thing in person? Bai has a smart and handsome face!

    "Forgot to tell Shaoyin, the little lady said that she was rambunctious, Shaoyin was serious, and her temper was inappropriate."

    Lin Yan: "...Thank you sir for letting me know."

    The author has something to say: Regarding the women's public examination in the Tang Dynasty, there is no name, even if it is private, I have not found any information.

    Lin Shaoyin: I just want to take a shortcut... It seems that I still have to sell my looks.
