When Shen Jinghong came out of Dali Temple, it was already dark. He was walking alone in the courtyard. A hand grabbed his sleeve, pulled him into an empty room, and closed the door behind him.
Shen Jinghong raised his eyebrows, looked at the serious-faced Mu Zhuohua in front of him, and said with a smile, "What are you doing?"
Mu Zhuohua took a step back and looked Shen Jinghong up and down: "This is the right question for me to ask you. Mr. Shen, what do you want to do? Everyone said that I leaked the secrets of the Ministry of Accounts, colluded with you, and framed you. Sun Ru. But I have never done this before. A few days ago, my desk showed signs of being tampered with. It was you who stole the details of the temple repair project and framed me!"
Shen Jinghong smiled and said nothing, looking down at Mu Zhuohua.
Mu Zhuohua took a deep breath and darkened his face: "Why? I already rejected you that day."
Shen Jinghong said: "Dali Temple has received a secret report and needs to investigate and verify the case. The evidence of what Sun Ru did is conclusive. Does Mr. Mu think that he should not plead guilty and be punished? Or are you afraid that you will be implicated?"
Mu Zhuohua bit his lip, his eyes darkened, and he glanced at the injury on Shen Jinghong's arm: "You are not even afraid of death, so why should I be afraid of being implicated, but Master Shen, if you don't ask for it, what are you afraid of? Are you afraid that I won't agree with what you're doing?"
Since Shen Jinghong first appeared in front of everyone, he has always been unruly, fearless, and upright. Mu Zhuohua respected him, but he also felt something was wrong in his heart. Shen Jinghong is so smart, why does he put himself in danger repeatedly? The same was true for the last time he proposed to abolish the Enyin System. Although in the end he retreated bravely, saved his life and won the hearts of the people, but as soon as he came back, he played an even bigger game and directly pointed the finger at the Minister of the Ministry of Industry. What is his plan?
The closer you get to him, the harder it is to see this person clearly.
"Would you agree?" Shen Jinghong asked with a smile.
Mu Zhuohua's clear and transparent eyes stared straight at Shen Jinghong, as if he wanted to see him clearly. After a long moment, she smiled and said, "I understand."
"Huh?" Shen Jinghong raised his eyebrows curiously.
Mu Zhuohua loosened his sleeves and said coldly: "Last year, when the Enyin System was abolished, you wanted to involve me. Zhuang Wenfeng and I had a grudge. You expected that I would not refuse, but you didn't expect that. The king took away my memorial and went ahead to get me out of the incident. "What you did today had the same motive. I refused to conspire with you before, so you secretly stole the confidential file in my hand. I have to stand with you. "
Mu Zhuohua took a step back and distanced himself from Shen Jinghong, as if standing further away could see him more clearly.
"I have a grudge against you?" Mu Zhuohua looked at him puzzled, "Why do you want to harm me?"
Shen Jinghong smiled: "I thought Mr. Mu was also a person who was dedicated to public service."
Mu Zhuohua chuckled softly: "I thought Master Shen was a man who was dedicated to public service. Your advice to abolish the grace system and expand the number of scholars in the imperial examination is indeed a good idea. You also impeached Sun Ru for dereliction of duty and corruption. Abusing power for personal gain is indeed upright and selfless. But Lord Shen, others don't know it, but I know it. It was you who suggested to His Majesty that he let Sun Ru take charge of the construction of the palace!"
