"Bastard!" More than three hundred citizens have died horribly, why was it not reported? " The young Emperor was furious for the first time, and had never seen him like this, even when he had been refuted in court by the ministers. The veins on his face bulged, and his right hand was bleeding from being too shocked and angry. The wood pillar was shattered into pieces by his inner force. All the officials present did not even dare to breathe.

"Your Majesty, this sinner no longer has the face to face the common people of the world. It was disloyal and unjust for a sinner to be ashamed of his majesty and of the people of the world; it was unfilial for a sinner to raise a tiger and cause harm to the people of the world by breaking his promise to his late father. I only hope that the Emperor will forgive my poor daughter. " After he finished speaking, Shen Zhui did not know where he got all his strength from, but he pulled the sword from a servant and slashed at his neck.

"Clang dang" Shen Zhui was still a Wen Chen after all, and the blade in his hand was heavy. Before he could even wipe his neck, the blade in his hand had already been knocked out by Qin Ao's cup.

"Your majesty, this sinner is guilty. This sinner deserves to die!" Shen Zhui held his injured right hand and looked at Qin Ao with an astonished expression. However, the pitiful Xin Er had lost his mother at a young age and entered the deep palace. He originally thought that the Emperor would be able to circumvent Xin Er's life on the account of his young self being the emperor's tutor, if he were to accept the consequences of his actions. Could it be that the Emperor really cannot let even Xin Er go?

"Why is the Grand Preceptor guilty?" "The Grand Preceptor has served the nation and the people for his entire life. Even if he isn't a citizen of Great Qin, I can't personally see my teacher die in vain for someone unrelated." Qin Ao did indeed want to abolish Shen Zhui, because many of his views were too conservative and did not apply anymore. However, he had never thought that such a loyal subject would die so tragically, not to mention …

"Lord Grand Preceptor, you'll know just by looking at this." Handing over the clan scroll in his hand, Eunuch Chen was trembling with fear. So the Empress had already planned everything beforehand. Could it be that the Empress was a prophet? Fortunately, at that time, he did not choose to inform the Emperor about this matter. Otherwise, with the power of Empress, he would probably be dead. Hence, Eunuch Chen had another person in his life that he should not offend. The first person was the Emperor Qin Ao, the second person was naturally Empress.

"This?" What was going on? Shen Zhui looked at the clan scrolls in his hands in disbelief. Why didn't he get any news about the Second Branch getting kicked out of the clan three years ago? Weird!

"Does the Grand Preceptor not know about this?" Removing the name of the family was an important matter. Didn't the Shen family come to notify the Grand Preceptor? " Seeing Shen Zhui's expression, Qin Ao looked at him strangely. He didn't know why but he had the nagging feeling that Shen Zhui was even more shocked than him when he found out about this. However, removing the Shen family's second branch was, after all, an official's family matter. Even if he was the monarch of a country, it would not be good for him to interfere.

"This sinner is only curious as to why this ancestral scroll is in the hands of Your Majesty. After all, this matter was discussed by the elders within the clan." As the Grand Preceptor, Shen Zhui was not a pedantic person. He still wanted to protect his daughter. With him here, Xin Er was not alone.

"Oh, it was sent by the Shen family. They probably heard of the Grand Preceptor beating the drum and recounting the matter." Qin Ao did not care about the matter of the Shen Family sending the clan scrolls to him, since this scrolls gave him a way out. No matter what the reason was, Shen Zhui could not die.
