Mrs. Hong was sleeping soundly. When she was woken up, she waved her hands with some annoyance.
Taifu Hong reflexively tilted his head to the other side and showed a somewhat complacent smile - fortunately, he had already guessed that his wife would have a bad temper when she was quarreled. This was a lesson he learned through blood and tears when he was beaten countless times.
However, he dodged to one side, but not the other hand. With a snap, Mrs. Hong hit him in the face with her other hand.
Taifu Hong's expression froze - he still couldn't avoid what was coming.
After his wife, Mrs. Hong, hit him, he woke up. She coughed slightly and said, "I think I accidentally hit a mosquito just now?"
Mr. Hong's face turned dark. Is he a mosquito? He obviously had something serious to ask his wife. And where did the mosquitoes come from in this weather?
Mrs. Hong asked: "What did you just tell me?"
Taifu Hong put aside the matter of being beaten (it was not like he had never been beaten anyway) and asked the question again.
Mrs. Hong said: "Yes, today I am going to attend the hairpin ceremony of the second lady of the Shen family. Shen Jingzhu is a famously filial child." Mrs. Hong always likes such filial children.
"By the way, why did you suddenly ask about Mrs. Guo? Mrs. Guo has been dead for many years. Shen Congyu and her had a deep relationship, and they have not remarried over the years. Unfortunately, Mrs. Guo's child died of illness some time ago."
Mrs. Hong was still sighing at that time.
Taifu Hong was even more convinced by his dream and continued to ask: "Then the Shen family plans to record Shen Jingying in the name of the Guo family?"
Mrs. Hong, who was still a little sleepy at first, is now completely awake. "I'm not sure about this either. I won't find out until I go there today. But I did hear some rumors like this a few days ago."
Taifu Hong's face turned even more ugly, "The second young lady of the Shen family and her biological mother are so vicious! No wonder Mrs. Guo would entrust me with a dream and ask me to seek justice for her."
"Ms. Guo also said that she is willing to donate all her dowry to the court and is not willing to take advantage of the evil people who harmed her and her daughter." Yi
He told his wife about the dream with an indignant look, and as he spoke, he was so angry that veins on his forehead kept pulsing.
Mrs. Hong was shocked that her husband was asked by Guo in a dream to seek justice for her.
Guo's dystocia was also related to Auntie Ke.
Guo's daughter was actually killed by Shen Jingying and her biological mother. Shen Congyu knew about it, but concealed it. They even used Guo's identity to elevate Shen Jingying's identity and make her a legitimate daughter. .
Mrs. Hong likes to watch dramas on weekdays, especially those plots in which Lord Qingtian avenges the people, and there are also scenes in which the ghost who died unjustly tells a dream. She did not expect that her husband would also be told in a dream.
It can be seen that his character is upright and everyone Guo can trust him.
She accepted the matter immediately. After all, she knew that the Shen family did have Aunt Ke, who was Shen Jingying's biological mother. But she didn't know that Aunt Ke was a maid.
Her husband knew more details than she did. He even explained clearly what Guo's dowry included.
Mrs. Hong was also a very aggressive person when she was young. She gritted her teeth and said, "I didn't expect that I was deceived by a little girl. I thought she was a good person and wanted to help her arrange marriage arrangements in the future."
Unexpectedly, I was mistaken.
Taifu Hong snorted coldly, "People have lofty aspirations. The Shen family has managed this reputation for her, and it's not just for that." He pointed in the direction of the palace.
Mrs. Hong gritted her teeth and said, "We can't punish them for their crimes without any evidence."
Taifu Hong said: "I will talk to your Majesty about this matter after I go to court, and then I will ask your Majesty to investigate the matter thoroughly."
Mrs. Hong said: "I have to go there today to take a good look at their faces."
She got up and personally poured tea for Mrs. Hong to rinse her mouth. She felt that the wrinkles on Mr. Hong's face looked much better than usual.
When Taifu Hong went to the morning court, he had this matter in mind and was in a high-spirited state.
After the early court retreated, he couldn't wait to open his mouth and heard a minister say to Emperor Rong Ji: "Your Majesty, I have something important to report."
Huh? Who took away what he wanted to say?
Taifu Hong turned around and found that Mr. Wen, the imperial censor, had taken a step ahead of him.
Looking at Mr. Lao next to him, he also looked like his lines had been robbed.
And these two are both very vindictive ministers in the court... Generally speaking, if the imperial censor has something important to attend to, he will do it directly in the morning. Unless they don't get actual evidence. Yi
An incredible thought emerged in Taifu Hong's mind, "Master Wen, Master Lao, did you have a different dream last night than usual?"
Mr. Wen and Mr. Lao stiffly turned their heads, and Mr. Hong glared at them.
"Master Taifu also had a dream?"
Mr. Lao even made a sign with his finger in mid-air indicating the word "Guo".
The three of them all saw shock on each other's faces. After the shock, they suddenly realized that they had all had a dream.
"My dear friends, please stay here for now."
Rong Ji, who was sitting on the dragon throne, gave them a meaningful look and called the ministers to stop.
The other ministers who had not yet left looked at each other, wondering what riddle they were trying to solve. Isn't this morning already over?
The ministers who originally walked out of the hall were invited back.
…
After Rong Ji had that dream, he asked the secret guards to control the Shen family servants who assisted Aunt Ke before the morning court. Aunt Ke was also imprisoned. Now he just waited for a confession.
However, after seeing the reactions of the three ministers, he guessed that he was not the only one who had this dream, so he changed his mind and decided to announce it.
He looked around at the ministers and said, "I had a dream last night. I dreamed that the deceased wife of Shen Congyu, a doctor in the Ministry of War, hoped that I could make decisions for her."
The whole place was in an uproar. The three ministers who had just been shocked were severely shocked again. Yi
Tai Fu Shen was dumbfounded, "Your Majesty, did you also dream about Guo?"
"I also dreamed about it."
"I also had this dream."
The three ministers, including the emperor, looked at each other and repeated what Guo said in the dream. The ministers who were originally hesitant about the dream were now completely convinced.
Four people, including the emperor, all had exactly the same dream. This was definitely a dream given by the victim himself.
"Has Shen Congyu lost his mind and gone crazy? He actually ignored the injustice suffered by his wife and legitimate daughter for the sake of an aunt and concubine." Because there are more and more officials, only fourth-rank officials are eligible to participate in the morning court. Shen Congyu
He was not qualified to come. However, there were several ministers who were familiar with him in the morning court, and those ministers all showed contempt and disgust at this time.
"I didn't expect him to be such a villain. We will definitely sever ties with such a heartless and unjust person." Yi
Taifu Hong sneered, and his loud voice resounded throughout the hall, "According to what Mrs. Guo said in the dream, today the Shen family plans to record Aunt Ke's daughter under the name of the Guo family and make her a named legitimate daughter."
"Shameless!"
"Too unconscionable!"
This is to harm people but also to devour them and squeeze out the remaining value. No wonder Guo was so angry that he asked the emperor and important officials in the imperial court to make decisions in his dreams.
They all looked at the emperor.
The emperor coughed lightly and said: "When the confession is obtained, the evildoers will be arrested and brought to justice."
As for Shen Jingying... Yi
He said slowly: "I heard that the second young lady of the Shen family cut meat to feed the hawks for her grandmother. Since she cut the meat, it will definitely leave traces."
"I will send a female doctor to deliver medicine to her later."
"If the wound is fake, then you have committed the crime of deceiving the emperor."
The important ministers directly addressed the emperor as a sage.
