The second wife is charming to the bone, and Mr. Shen is very honest

Chapter 129 One life is worth one life

Jiang Sujin's eyes rolled around, and she suddenly thought of the words she heard before she fell into a coma.

It turned out that the emperor wanted to get rid of Shen Yanfeng, so he deliberately sent someone to kill her in order to stir up conflicts between the Jiang and Shen families, and then use his father to get rid of Shen Yanfeng.

Of course, she also knew that Madam Shen must have been involved and she wanted to kill her, so she was taken advantage of by the emperor's people.

What made her uncomfortable was that Shen Yanfeng was going to be killed. He had done nothing wrong. He just simply liked her, but he became the emperor's entry point to harm him.

"Master, when can I get out of bed and walk?"

The old man couldn't help but widen his eyes when he heard this: "It takes another month to raise a child. You have two knife wounds on your body, and each wound is not shallow. Even with this, you still want to walk?"

Jiang Sujin naturally felt the pain of the knife: "I know, but I have something important to do and need to go back."

The old man said: "Go back, you can go back now, and die far away, so that I don't have to collect your body."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Sujin frowned even more tightly. She didn't know what the situation was now. Her parents must have been worried crazy after knowing that she was in trouble, and so was Shen Yanfeng.

At the same time, in the Shen Mansion, Shen's father and Duke Rong were furious when they found out that Shen Yanfeng was going to help Madam Shen take the blame.

Father Shen: "Feng'er, do you know what responsibilities you bear? If you are gone, the Shen family will really be finished."

Shen Yanfeng said with a hollow look in his eyes: "The emperor wants to kill me. Only when I die can the Shen family be free from disaster."

Father Shen: "The emperor will definitely test you. As long as you are careful and wait until the war breaks out at the border, the emperor will know your benefits and will naturally use you again."

Shen Yanfeng: "No, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is still young, and he grew up in the Shen family. The Emperor is afraid that after His Royal Highness the Crown Prince ascends the throne, he will allow me to manipulate him. So for the sake of the stability of the imperial power, he will definitely eliminate any potential threats before the new emperor ascends the throne."

Upon hearing this, Duke Rong couldn't help but burst into tears. He naturally understood what Shen Yanfeng meant. The thought that his beloved grandson was going to be executed made him feel like his heart was being cut by a knife.

When Mr. Shen saw this, his eyes couldn't help but turn red. Shen Yanfeng was his hard work. If he died, what was the point of him living?

"Or... just let your mother be executed. The emperor just wants to give you a warning. If your mother dies, his goal will be achieved."

Shen Yanfeng: "Mom is the one who gave birth to me and raised me. The kindness of parents is greater than heaven. How can a son bear to let her die?"

Father Shen: "Who let her be blinded by greed and do such a heinous thing? She deserves to die!"

He really didn't want her to die at first, but if his son had to exchange her life, he could never accept it.

Shen Yanfeng: "I have already told the emperor that as long as the Jiang family agrees, I will go directly to the government office to surrender myself."

Father Shen: "No, you can't go. If you die, Dad won't be able to live."

Hearing this, Shen Yanfeng couldn't help but look at his father with red eyes: "Dad, do you want to see everyone in the Shen family die because of me? Li Yi is definitely someone arranged by the emperor. If he can arrange Li Yi, he can arrange others. Sooner or later, he will kill me."

"If the entire family is executed, then our Shen family will be truly finished."

When Mr. Shen heard this, his eyes suddenly became even redder.

As for the entire Shen family, he naturally didn't want to see the entire Shen family being executed by the emperor.

Duke Rong said in a trembling voice: "The Shen family has been prosperous for generations. As the saying goes, everything that goes up must come down. Everything is as it should be."

Shen Yanfeng: "Decline is better than death!" After saying that, he stood up and left.

He returned to Wutong Courtyard and lay on Jiang Sujin's bed. She had clearly given him a chance. As long as he tried harder, she would agree to reconcile with him.

Why did things turn out like this? Why did fate play such a trick on them?

Shen Yanfeng was lying on the bed, and suddenly he couldn't help crying sadly.

The emperor told Jiang Moting about Shen Yanfeng's idea and hinted that Jiang Moting should agree with it.

Jiang Moting is not a fool, he naturally knows what the emperor means, but in the final analysis, it was Madam Shen who was instigated by this matter.

"I can accept Shen Yanfeng taking the blame. If he hadn't insisted on pestering me, my daughter wouldn't have died."

"But, in the final analysis, it was Madam Shen who was behind all this. Shen Yanfeng can die, but that vicious woman will not have a good ending either."

Emperor: "Don't worry, she used her son's life to exchange for her own life. Do you think Shen Changfeng can let her go easily?"

"From now on, she will spend the rest of her life atonement for her mistakes!"

The next day, Li Yi suddenly changed his confession, and Shen Yanfeng was taken away by officials from the yamen.

When Mrs. Shen was released, her voice was trembling with excitement.

"The Emperor...has the Emperor pardoned me and made me innocent? Huh?"

The jailer ignored her and pushed her out of the cell coldly.

Mrs. Shen finally regained her freedom. She walked out excitedly, wishing she could leave here immediately.

Just then, the jailer suddenly came in with a prisoner.

Mrs. Shen took a subconscious look and found that the prisoner in front of her was her son Shen Yanfeng.

"Ah~ You... Why did you arrest my son? Son, how did you get in?"

Shen Yanfeng looked at her with red eyes, then said in a deep voice: "Mom, go back and live a good life, and don't have any thoughts of harming others. Your son will not be able to protect you in the future."

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Shen burst into tears: "Son, what's going on? Why do you say such things?"

Li Yi: "Because I changed my confession and accused your son of being the mastermind, you were acquitted and Lord Shen had to come in with an injustice."

Upon hearing this, Madam Shen couldn't help but shout, "You are talking nonsense. It was obviously me who ordered you to do it. Why did you suddenly frame my son?"

Li Yi: "Because your son wants to die for you, I can only fulfill his filial piety."

Upon hearing this, Madam Shen couldn't help crying and looked at Shen Yanfeng: "Son, mother doesn't want you to be like this. If you die, then mother will not live."

Shen Yanfeng touched Mrs. Shen's face with red eyes and said, "Take good care of yourself." After that, he took the initiative to enter the cell.

Mrs. Shen cried and tried to enter the cell, but was dragged out by the jailers.

"Let me go, I want to find my son."

"This is the prison, you can't just go in whenever you want, get out of here!"

Mrs. Shen sat on the ground and cried for a long time. Finally, she seemed to have thought of something, so she hurried away.

After she returned to the Shen Mansion, the first thing she went to was Duke Rong's courtyard.

As it happened, Shen Changfeng was there too. She quickly grabbed Shen Changfeng's arm and said excitedly, "Master, please save Feng'er. Feng'er has been captured!"

Shen Changfeng glanced at her with red eyes and said, "If it weren't for you, would he be able to get in?"

Upon hearing this, Madam Shen burst into tears again: "I was wrong. I will go and confess my crime and exchange our Feng'er."

Shen Changfeng: "What do you think the Heavenly Prison is? You can come in and out as you please?"

Mrs. Shen: "Then Feng'er is finished, isn't she?"

Shen Changfeng: "It's over, the emperor will make the verdict soon. This is all your fault. Are you satisfied now?" As he said this, he couldn't help but cry.

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Shen could not help but fell to the ground and burst into tears.

Seeing this, Shen Changfeng could not help but burst into tears. His son was so outstanding, but now he was going to die.

Duke Rong and Old Madam Shen had both fallen ill a long time ago. Old Madam Shen loved Shen Yanfeng the most. When she heard that she was going to be arrested in the morning, she grabbed the jailer's arm and was dragged out of the Shen Mansion by them.

She could not accept her grandson being beheaded. If she had known this would happen, she would rather he knew nothing, had no achievements, and just be an ordinary mediocre person, rather than end up with a grandson who dies before him.

Now that the criminal has been detained, the next step is to discuss how to convict him.

Some old officials insisted on sparing Shen Yanfeng's life because they knew that he had outstanding abilities and might be able to make up for his mistakes in the future.

Jiang Moting advocated beheading directly. He killed his daughter, so he must pay the price.

At this moment, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince suddenly rushed into the Golden Palace.

"Grandfather, why was Lord Shen beheaded?"

No wonder the Emperor’s grandfather didn’t let him come to court recently. It turned out that such a big thing had happened.
