【Chapter 114 - Interrogation】Violent combing technique
Later, Zhao Yue came all the way and took Wen Liunian back to eat.
If you think about it carefully, the prime minister of Da Chu is really not good, not only to assist the Son of Heaven in discussing politics, but also to help the Son of Heaven guard the door.
Lord Wen said: "You have to eat elbows." ”
After all, I sat dry at the door for several hours, and I had to make up for it.
"It's getting dark outside, so don't get up." Inside the house, Duan Baiyue asked, "If you want to eat, I'll send some to the room." ”
"The traitor is still in prison, no matter what?" Chu Yuan's chin rested on his chest.
"It's not too late to retry after returning to the palace, or if you are annoyed, just throw it all to me." Duan Baiyue pulled up the quilt and wrapped it around him, "Why rush this moment. ”
Chu Yuan pouted: "Disaster to the country and the people." ”
Duan Baiyue's subordinates paused and asked, "Are you talking about Chu Xiang or Xiao Xiao'er?" ”
Chu Yuan said: "You." ”
Duan Baiyue: "......"
Chu Yuan lay in his arms, but he didn't speak again, as if he was thinking about things in a daze.
After a long while, Duan Baiyue protested in a low voice: "No." ”
"Yes." Chu Yuan didn't even move his gaze, still staring lazily ahead, and said casually, "I said that if you have it, you will have it." ”
Duan Baiyue said, "Oh. ”
You are the emperor, you have the final say.
Chu Yuan shrunk into the quilt and closed his eyes again. All around are the most familiar breaths, and the two of them are unclothed after indulgence, and their naked skin is tightly fitted together, transmitting the heat of breathing to each other. Ten fingers interlocked, so comfortable that I didn't even want to say a word.
Seeing his greedy and lazy appearance, Duan Baiyue smiled, his fingers gently combed his messy hair, and his arms circled the person tighter.
Early the next morning, Chu Yuan led his people to leave Chengzhou, leaving Wen Liunian and Zhao Yue to deal with the follow-up matters of the Liuyu Sword Pavilion with the local officials. In the carriage, Duan Baiyue was holding a white fungus soup and said, "Do you want to eat it?" ”
Chu Yuan said: "I don't have an appetite." ”
Duan Baiyue looked at him for a while, and then said, "It's just that you don't have an appetite, you're not angry with me, are you?" ”
Chu Yuan squeezed the words out of his nose: "Hmm." ”
Duan Baiyue: "......"
The queen is too favored, otherwise it is easy to cause trouble to the court. For example, as soon as I opened my eyes this morning, I was pestered to ask for it again, and I got into the carriage in a groggy state, and I felt uncomfortable until this time. Duan Baiyue stretched out his hand to hug him, but he was simply thrown out of the carriage, and the Huoyun Lion looked back at him slowly in front of him, snorting towards the sky.
"Lord Wang." Duan Nian stepped forward from behind and said, "Xiaoxiao'er has woken up, saying that she wants to see the emperor." “
"He's in a hurry." Duan Baiyue said, "I can't even wait to go back to the royal city." ”
Duan Nian asked, "See?" ”
"Nope." Duan Baiyue said, "Dry him for a few days." ”
Duan Nian nodded, turned his horse's head and returned to the end of the line.
Compared with Xiao Xiao'er, Feng Lei is much more manic, but no matter how manic he is, it has nothing to do with the King of the Southwest, because he directly lost people to Wen Liunian.
Chu Yuan: "......"
Looking at the people in the prison who kept roaring and scolding, their hair exploded, and they were trying to break free of the chains and rushed up, Lord Wen's head was buzzing, and he hid behind Zhao Yue, wanting to resign and return to his hometown.
The first time in the royal city was the same, the two returned to the dormitory before they finished bathing, and before they had a cup of tea for a while, Sixi came to pass the word, saying that Master Tao asked to see him.
Duan Baiyue lay on the table and pretended to be dead.
Again.
If you don't come, you can't make it.
"Get up." Chu Yuan tugged at his sleeve, "Come with me to the imperial study." ”
"It's okay to go, but if an old man is by me, you must not be angry." Duan Baiyue held his hand, leaned over to his mouth and kissed it, still not wanting to move. What is it difficult to go from luxury to frugality, I have tasted the taste of not doing a good job with my sweetheart, who still wants to take care of Lao Shizi's Jiangshan Sheji Nanyang rebels, who loves to want whom, it is the right thing to go back to the southwest to wash rice as soon as possible.
Chu Yuan forcibly pushed him up, straightened out his messy clothes, combed his hair again, and dragged him out of the door.
The King of the Southwest stretched out his hand halfway and rubbed his scalp secretly—this kind of violent method of using a comb was compared to Aunt Jin, and I was afraid that she would be torn bald in the future.
The old ministers in the imperial study waited for a long time, and finally waited for the emperor and the king of the southwest.
……
"Master Tao." Duan Baiyue's attitude was extremely friendly.
"The king of the southwest also has something to report to the emperor?" Tao Rende said, "Then I can step back first, and come back to face the saint later." ”
"Your Excellency is gracious." Duan Baiyue said, "This king has nothing to report, so let's take a look." ”
Tao Rende: "......"
Come and see?
Chu Yuan instructed the chamberlain to give everyone a seat.
Duan Baiyue dragged the chair and moved closer to the dragon case, almost sticking together, before patting her sleeves and sitting down satisfied.
Tao Rende was in a complicated mood, he didn't know what to say, and he was even more dizzy when he looked at the emperor with a smile on his face. Until he finished playing things and came out of the imperial study, he was still stepping on cotton.
"Could it be, Southwest Wang ......" The other adult wanted to speak and stopped, looked around to make sure that there were no outsiders around, and then twisted his fingers and whispered, "Gu." ”
As soon as this statement came out, the rest of the adults also felt that it was very likely. The territory of Chu is vast, and there are not a few vassal countries and kings from all over the country, but the deviant Seven Peerless King Mu Hanye, at most, boasted about his love history with his own queen when he met people, and forced others to praise him, except for this love, there is nothing else. Where would it be like the king of the southwest in the imperial study today, dragging a chair and jingling around with a bell, such a faux pas, the emperor actually didn't care - it was really like being caught in the Gu.
"How's that for good?" The big guy was all talking, and he was extremely worried, and he was very much looking forward to the fact that His Royal Highness the Ninth would come sooner, or that General Shen would come back.
Chu Yuan lay on the table and laughed.
Duan Baiyue supported his cheek with one hand and looked at him with interest on the other side.
"Don't make trouble next time." Chu Yuan laughed enough, sat up and patted his side face, "Did you hear that?" ”
Duan Baiyue grabbed his hand, lowered her head and kissed it.
"Let's go, go see Nava and them." Chu Yuan said, "I took the antidote before, and now it's time to wake up." ”
"Your Majesty." Zhang Mingrui was seeing Kunda, Jin Shu was guarding beside him, Chu Yuan signaled that he didn't have to salute, and after a few simple questions, he went to the next room.
There was a dark and thin man lying on the bed, with high cheekbones, and although his expression was a little tired, he could also see a bit of royal bearing, it was Nava, the lord of the White Elephant Country.
As Duan Baiyue had predicted, due to the rise of Nanyang commerce, more and more people became rich overnight, and more and more people wanted to get a piece of the pie. There are more people, business is not easy to do, the competition is fierce, the port is becoming more and more congested, at this moment, if anyone can open a new channel, it is all white money. Nava knew that he was not the only one who had this idea, and he was not the only one who wanted to win over Da Chu, so except for a few cronies, no one knew about this trip, but he didn't expect that his whereabouts would still be revealed.
"Does the lord know who is behind the scenes?" Duan Baiyue asked.
Nava shook his head, thought for a moment, and then said, "I wonder if I can ask Emperor Chu for a favor?" ”
"Please." Chu Yuan nodded.
Nava said: "I implore the Emperor of Chu to secretly send someone to the White Elephant Country to see what the situation is there." ”
Chu Yuan nodded: "Okay, I promise you." ”
After Nava thanked him, he fell silent again, and it seemed that he didn't want to talk more, but fortunately, Chu Yuan didn't ask anything more, only said that he should rest well, and left with Duan Baiyue.
Wen Liunian's interrogation was extremely smooth—within a few days, someone was sent to bring a thick stack of folds. Many years ago, there was a disciple under Xiaoxiao'er, named Fengshan, who was the only son of Fenglei. It is also common to find a sect to settle down temporarily when wandering the rivers and lakes, so Feng Lei did not take it to heart after learning about it. It's just that the next time I received the letter, it was shocking news, saying that Fengshan had died of illness.
Middle-aged lost a child, Feng Lei was very sad, but an insider ordered a letter to be sent, saying that Fengshan did not die of illness, but was taken by Xiaoxiaoer to sacrifice the Linglong Tower, not to mention the ashes of the body, and even the soul will not be left. In order to avenge his son, Feng Lei Yi disguised himself as a one-legged person, swallowed the sea of blood and mixed into the Liuyu Sword Pavilion, although he gained Xiaoxiao'er's trust step by step, but he was never able to trap him in the Linglong Pagoda to pay tribute to his unjustly killed son, until Nava and his party were kidnapped, and Duan Baiyue happened to find the door by himself, so he finally decided to take a desperate gamble.
"What's next?" Duan Baiyue asked, "Do you still want to go to the prison to see Xiaoxiao'er?" ”
"After so many days of confinement, I haven't committed suicide, and it seems that I still want to live." Chu Yuan said, "As long as you want to live, then there is a way to pry his mouth open." ”
"I'm going?" Duan Baiyue said.
"Hmm." Chu Yuan nodded, "After the trial, take a breath, even if you want to die, let him die in the Linglong Tower, which can be regarded as comforting the innocent young man." "As for the wind and thunder, he has been burdened with many sins, no matter what the original reason is, he has long been unforgivable.
In the gloomy dungeon, Xiaoxiao'er was sitting on a straw with her back to the cell door.
Duan Baiyue motioned to the cell boss to open the iron lock, and the sound of metal colliding was quite loud in the dark, but Xiaoxiao'er still didn't look back.
Duan Baiyue said: "Feng Lei has already confessed everything, are you still going to be hard-mouthed?" ”
Xiao Xiao'er slowly turned her head and looked at him, her eyes full of resentment.
In the current situation, even a fool can think clearly. Since Feng Lei is Fengshan's father, he must be eager to let Emperor Chu cut him with a thousand knives, even if there is no crime, he will fabricate a bunch of them, not to mention that Liuyu Sword Pavilion has indeed been secretly doing things for Chu Xiang all these years. Others may not know the inside story, Feng Lei is the second master, but he can really reach the messenger and the person who reported it. At this moment, it is useless to regret that you don't know people clearly, and the only thing you can do is to cooperate with the court to clear the thieves in order to reduce the guilt, but I didn't expect that on the way from Chengzhou to Wangcheng, no one would pay attention to me at all, and sometimes even forgot to deliver food, and it was not unheard of being hungry for two days in a row, let alone interrogation.
And now that someone finally came, he didn't even wear an official robe, and he didn't know what his official status was, but he opened his mouth and said that he had a hard mouth?
Xiao Xiao'er desperately suppressed her anger and grievances, and said, "I want to see the emperor." ”
"The emperor is also something you can see?" Duan Baiyue looked at the posture of the outsider, who was a bit of a bully of men and women, moved a chair and sat down, stepped on the table with one foot, and said lazily: "Say it." ”
Xiao Xiao'er gritted her teeth and repeated again, raising her voice: "I want to see the emperor." ”
"Chu Xiang is not qualified to face the saint, let alone you." The corners of Duan Baiyue's mouth curled, but her eyes gradually became cold, "Think clearly, if you don't say it at this time, I'm afraid you will die in the next moment." ”
