Chapter 33 Cut!(1/2)
"That is the characteristic of Chu family in Bainiao Peak. Chu Xiu has been brewing for a long time and went straight to Chang'an overnight. I'm afraid that everything has been calculated long ago. I don't know what he wants to do." Thinking of Chu Fang with a national face and a blue robe hanging down on the ground; Chu Xie, who was tall and big, with a heavy sword on his shoulders, Chen Fei nodded vigorously.
Tuoba Lie asked: "Do you want to send someone to the prison to find out?"
"No, I think he should have his own plan in his heart." When he saw the Confucian scholar, Chen Fei's first reaction was surprise, because this was clearly the person who left a deep impression on him in Jinling City. He had a fate with this person, so he persuaded His Highness to send out an immortal pill and save the life of the seventeenth prince.
You should know that the death of the seventeenth prince is only beneficial and not harmful to Tuoba Lie. His Highness can agree to his request because of absolute trust.
Thinking about it carefully, the whole thing is really a coincidence. When I was buying books in Jinling City, I saw Chu Xiu and heard a world-renowned talk from him. Then I set out to the imperial capital. I didn’t expect that Chu Xiu not only arrived first, but also gained a foothold in the court and had an official position as a commoner. You must know that since the empire implemented the Nine-Rank Zhongzheng system, few people without background have become officials. Finally, I finally entered the court and saw such a scene before meeting the saint. It is not so much an extreme coincidence, but it is more appropriate to have intentionally arranged it!
...
"What! My son fell off the carriage and was seriously injured! How could he be so careless?" He was reviewing memorials in the study. Long live now, who is over 70 years old, jumped up. Who doesn't know that his favorite son is Tuoba Hua recently. If something happened to the other party, he would lose face. "Kill and kill, kill all the people in charge of serving, and leave no one."
The eunuch Liu Yi stood beside him and lowered his head to report: "I heard that he was driving a horse in the palace. He was blocked by the newly appointed prefect Chu Xiu, so he fell off the horse and was seriously injured. Fortunately, Prince Lie took Chen Fei and happened to pass there and gave him a fairy pill, which saved his life."
"So..." His Majesty calmed down, his eyes circled in his sockets, and he must be thinking. He is now a person who is buried in the loess with one leg in the mortal world. His skin is drooping, and his age spots are covered with his whole body, showing aging everywhere, but his eyes are only full of spirit, and his deep eyes are filled with wisdom, and he is not confused at all.
His Majesty was silent, proving that this matter was difficult to deal with. Liu Yi waited patiently without saying a word until he figured out his order: "Put Lie's time to meet the saint for one day. Tomorrow I will take a group of princes and ministers to personally interrogate Chu Xiu."
"Your Majesty, forgive the old minister's words. Chu Xiu has not been appointed as the prefect for a long time, but he has really offended many people, if..."
"You don't have to say it anymore. I'm very clear, so I have to interrogate him personally. If someone else starts the trial, Chu Xiu will be dead."
"He violated the dignity of the royal family. Do you want to open the door and save his life?"
"Let's take a look." The old emperor sighed, lying softly in the chair, showing fatigue.
The time for the prince to face the saint is delayed again!
...
That night, a black dress appeared in the prison, and in front of the prison where Chu Xiu was imprisoned, staring at the other party without saying a word.
The latter seemed to have a sense of emotion, looked up calmly, and smiled, "You are here." He seemed to have guessed the identity of the visitor.
"Are you crazy? You dare to intercept the prince's car?" Even if you deliberately suppress it, it was Chen Fei's voice.
"The prince violated the law and committed the same crime as the common people. What's wrong with me doing this?"
"If you are convicted of death, are you able to escape?"
"Don't worry, Your Majesty won't kill me."
"Who do you think you are, why do you say that?"
"Just as I know you didn't tell Chu Xie about what happened here, I also know that Your Majesty will not kill him."
"hehe."
"Have you ever wondered why His Highness the Prince has been driving in the imperial city for many days, so why did he just intercept him today!"
"Don't say it's because of me."
"Yes, it's because of you. I know that with you, your highness and I will not die."
"You saw me passing by before stopping the car. No wonder you happened to be like this."
"There is no coincidence in the world, only the plan that is accurate to the hair."
"What the hell are you going to do!"
"You should know my purpose."
"Famous all over the world?"
"The Confucian scholars in the world have only four words that they have worked hard for their whole life, and they are famous all over the world!"
"Your Chu family is more normal, your elder brother."
"With him inheriting the family business, Chu Xie and I are responsible for expanding our territory."
"Since you are confident, that's the best thing. I'm too troubled."
"Slow down."
"how!"
"Thanks!"
"Why thank you!"
"You could have watched the wall without getting involved, but you saved the life of the Seventeenth Prince for me. Thank you sincerely."
"Don't get me wrong. I saved the seventeenth prince to spread the reputation of Taoism."
"Thank you anyway."
"I'm leaving."
"There's one more thing."
"I'm scared, I want me to save you and leave?"
"no."
"What else can it be."
"I cannot agree with the way you spread Taoist teachings."
"What's the meaning!"
"It will cause temptations to benefit, and it will disperse when the profit is exhausted, and it will be difficult to last."
"You don't need to teach me a lesson."
"Actually, I want to say that if I encounter something in the future, I don't have to save me."
"Don't worry, there won't be a next time."
“Because we are competitors.”
"You're so crazy."
"My trip to Chu Xiu has only one purpose in entering the imperial capital, that is, to completely eliminate the influence of Buddhism and Taoism on the people's country, and to make Confucianism the only national religion, and to combine it with the political system."
"A foolish, goodbye!"
“We’ll meet again soon.”
"Haha, I look forward to your performance."
When young people with lofty ambitions gather together in the imperial capital, they will surely bring huge waves.
...
Chen Fei would never have thought that a peer could steal all the limelight after he entered the imperial capital. In the Palace of Light, Chu Xiu became completely popular.
A group of princes and ministers were divided into two rows, and two guards escorted the Evil-faced Saint Chu. Even though the latter was tied up and was heavily handcuffed and shackled, he still could not hide his aggressive momentum. Chu Xiu's eyes were very bright, as bright as stars.
He knelt down and bowed to Your Majesty. It must be that ordinary people cannot understand lofty ambitions that can support a generation of immortals to condescend and bow down to ordinary people.
Sitting upright, Nian Nian, Long Live, looked at Chu Xie's white clothes stained by dust and blood, suddenly felt soft and waved his hand and said, "Come on, uncuff the handcuffs and shackles for him!"
This is a bad signal, and a minister immediately jumped out to refute: "Your Majesty, this person is trying to murder His Highness the most evil. For your safety, you should take more precautions."
"Yes, this person is extremely evil and should be executed immediately." The ministers spoke in unison, with a very tacit understanding.
His Majesty looked at them in vain, but said, "It's ridiculous. If I'm in danger in the Palace of Light, what do you want to do with the guards? What do you want to do with the wine bags?"
"This..." After saying something, everyone was speechless, looking at each other and stopped talking.
"Bang, bang." The handcuffs and shackles were removed. Chu Xiu rubbed his red wrist and turned around to look at everyone with a deep meaning, which once again aroused the public's dissatisfaction: "It's extremely arrogant and extremely arrogant. The thugs not only do not repent, but instead..."
"Stop me, are you a shrew in the city? I've been clamoring for so much, so annoying." He was scolded by Long Live Now.
After being scolded by His Majesty twice in a row, everyone finally calmed down. Chu Xiuliang's eyes, like Hua Yu, swept across them one by one, then turned around and bowed to His Majesty: "My Emperor, Xiu devoted himself to his work, and he would die!" He bowed to the ground.
...
The lion and the tiger stood on the Hall of Light, one left and the other on the right, overlooking the ministers. There were only two voices in the hall, one was from the old emperor and the other was from Chu Xiu.
The old emperor asked: "Chu Xiu, I ask you, Huaer's carriage was stopped by you."
"Yes, the imperial palace is the place where the dragon lies on the bed, and it cannot be trampled on by horses. As an imperial official, I am a prefect of the Chang'an prefect, my Majesty personally granted by His Majesty, I have the obligation to prevent the seventeenth prince from trampling on Longyan."
"Do you know that hurting the royal family is a death sentence."
"Huang Tian is above, and I am standing in front of the carriage and horse with my weak body. I have no intention of harming Your Highness, but I am just determined to stop him from continuing to do evil."
"It's not because of the following."
"I am obeying the emperor's kindness and being dedicated to it. If I ignore this matter, I will really betray the emperor's kindness and the world.
The empress believes that the sky is above and the earth is below. The vast world needs to be ruled by law; the people's will be in the will of Confucianism. The imperial laws clearly prohibit the horses in the palace. If the empress ignores it today, there will be a second, third, and even more behaviors that are equally unpredictable, and the prestige of the country will be gone.
I am willing to stop the prince’s carriage with my flesh and blood, so as to stop the prince’s usurpation and maintain the imperial decree from becoming a piece of paper.”
"One nonsense, another nonsense, the following people commit the act of murdering the prince, which was actually packaged as an impartial and selfless law enforcement. Chu Xiu, a man who spoke evilly, deserved to be punished by the separation of five horses." After saying this, someone could not listen anymore and stood up to accuse Chu Xiu.
His Majesty was silent. He sat upright on a high place, his body was decadently sinking into the dragon throne, staring at Chu Xiu without blinking, and didn't know what he was thinking.
"Your Majesty, I think Chu Xiu's man is a man who is confusing the public and deserves to be killed. He should be punished with the utmost punishment and the three tribes of the country."
"Your Majesty, I also have the same view."
