Shen Zhixu was noncommittal. Who knew that the late emperor was incompetent? Not only was he incompetent, but he also committed evil deeds. How much justice and peace could there be in the country under his rule?
Xiao Chengyi frowned and asked, "Why haven't you seen that young lady from the Meng family?"
Shen Zhixu said: "Are you talking about Meng Hongshuang? Before I came to Yunzhou, she hit the wall and committed suicide."
Mu Yun'an frowned: "Suicide?"
Shen Zhixu nodded: "It is said that he committed suicide in prison because of his guilt. When Mr. Liu and I went to take office, the bodies had already been buried."
Mu Yunan thought that the reason why the Meng family was raided was because Meng Hongshuang seduced Xiao Chengyi.
Thinking about it, she also regretted it very much, thinking that she had harmed the Meng family, so she committed suicide.
Originally she wanted to see this woman, but now she couldn't.
Xiao Chengyi said: "You go to prison, Yan Yan and I will go to the inn to settle down first."
Shen Zhixu agreed, and he and Liu Zhengchun watched Xiao Chengyi and others leave.
After the carriage had gone away, they returned to the execution ground to carry out the execution.
The people watching below were all talking about it, wondering who those noble people were just now.
Someone with knowledge of the matter said: "The regent who was on an envoy to Mobei has returned. It was the regent who put Master Meng in jail and asked the imperial court to send a censor to investigate, and then he punished Master Meng."
"The Prince Regent is such a good man."
"Isn't it?"
The people were all praising the regent. Not far away, there was a man wearing a curtain standing in the crowd. He listened to the people's discussion and couldn't help but clench his hands.
At this time, I heard Shen Zhixu give an order: "The time is up, the execution will be carried out."
The executioner took off the sign from the prisoner's back, took a sip of wine, and spat on the sword. The sword rose and fell, and several heads rolled down.
The people around him cheered happily, but the man wearing a curtain turned around and strode away.
In the inn.
After Xiao Chengyi and others were settled, it didn't take long for Shen Zhixu to come back first.
He had not seen the Imperial Preceptor and General Mu on the street just now. Now when he saw him in the inn, he was a little surprised and asked: "Is the Imperial Preceptor and General Mu returning to the court?"
Xuan Du smiled and said: "Thanks to the regent, Mobei has been recovered, and I can come back early to prepare for the wedding."
Shen Zhixu bowed his hands towards Xuandu and said, "It turns out that good things are about to happen, Imperial Master. Congratulations."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard Mu Yun'an's voice: "There is still me."
Shen Zhixu looked up and saw Mu Yun'an's growing belly. He was surprised: "Are you pregnant?"
Mu Yun'an raised his eyebrows: "Yes, isn't it a surprise?"
Shen Zhixu was not surprised at all. He said: "I see that this child is quite old. Isn't he conceived when we were in Mobei?"
Mu Yunan said: "I found it on the road."
Shen Zhixu took a breath of cold air. He looked around and saw Feng Changling. He couldn't help but asked with some worry: "Is Dr. Feng okay?"
Mu Yun'an was a little confused: "Why do you ask that?"
Shen Zhixu explained: "When Miss Qiu Wu kidnapped you, Feng Changling was deeply shocked.
I see that he is probably attracted to Miss Qiu Wu? So aren't you worried that he will feel uncomfortable?"
