Chapter 111: Grievances

Ah Zi lowered her eyes.

Such a simple truth, as long as a person with a little common sense can find a flaw, but after living in Dongyuan for so many years, Ah Zi completely accepted this set of rhetoric about the 'Yuanmen Incident'.

In fact, not only Ah Zi, but also the people she knew, uncles and aunts, Xiao Hao, and even occasionally heard people mention it when they went out with the master for consultation, all of them looked at this matter from such a whitewashed perspective.

The ridiculous thing is that everyone is so superstitious about the ruler of their country, and the terrible thing is that the dignified Dongyuan covers tens of millions of square kilometers and how many people are under his rule, and no voice has come forward to question this story full of loopholes......

Is it because the people of the country are so ignorant, or are most of them sweeping the snow in front of their doors and unwilling to investigate deeply?

The only person who has the ability and willingness to stand up and re-investigate the case has been forced to come to the territory of Xiyou at this moment.

"When you were the official of the Dongyuan Metropolitan Procuratorate, you should have gotten far more than what we had heard, right? What other truths have been discovered? ”

The cause of the "Yuanmen Incident" was that Zhu Huiyuan harbored the witch, and it was also the "Demon Hunting Order" issued after this incident, as a member of the witch, Ah Zi instinctively wanted to know more about the secrets behind this matter.

But Zuo Qiyang looked at Ah Zi and was silent for a long time before he sighed and said, "It's just some insignificant clues, and it's not much different from what I just said." ”

At this point, he saw the room so dim that he could barely reach his fingers, and the stuffy and humid smell of the room. The heavy smell of rancid and bloody, and the shocking conduits and blood containers......

He shuddered as he tried to adjust his breathing to calm himself.

It's better not to let Ah Zi know about these things.

"If that's all it takes, you've betrayed the Dongyuan Imperial Court, it's too arbitrary......" Ah Zi muttered, his face full of disappointment.

Zuo Qiyang smiled and said, "If you really want to know more, there is one person who is the best candidate." To know. Now among the people who are still alive in this world. Except for Emperor Gaotian and King Zhu Huishu of Qi, she is the only one who knows the ins and outs of this matter best. ”

"The Empress Dowager?"

Ah Zi's mind came to mind of the old man lying on his side on the couch, his eyes as still as water.

Zuo Qiyang nodded and looked out the window again. "It's not too early. Go and rest. I'll escort you to her old man's house early tomorrow morning. ”

"Tomorrow?"

Wouldn't it be too eager?

"Yes, being allowed to walk around the palace by the Empress Dowager is not something that anyone can get. If you are not ready to cherish the opportunity in front of you, do you want to put on a young lady's shelf to push back and fail? Zuo Qiyang said, raising his eyebrows.

"That's not ......"

"Then it's decided, go back and pack up and rest early." Saying that, seeing that Ah Zi was still a little hesitant, he simply stood up and said with a gesture of sending off guests, "Don't worry, although the Empress Dowager has a noble status, she can be the most charitable, to be honest, I have been here for so many years, don't say that the people under her are even ants, she has never hurt her, will she still eat you?"

"And believe me, from my observations, the Empress Dowager and the Empress are very fond of you."

Zuo Qiyang is like this, when he decides on something, he does not allow others to question it at all, at this moment he said that he would send Ah Zi into the palace the next day, but he actually did not leave her a little room to return.

Until lying on the bed, Ah Zi still couldn't fall asleep after tossing and turning.

The Empress Dowager and the Empress really like themselves very much?

I just went to the Sacred Heart Palace for a day, in addition to doing my part carefully, most of the time the queen said a sentence and answered a sentence by herself, and she didn't dare to say more than half a sentence, and she didn't even dare to raise her eyes to look at the queen mother, how could they talk about themselves?

What's more, Zuo Qiyang just hurriedly replied in the Sacred Heart Palace, leaving himself to slip away first, how could he know what the two masters in Dongyang Palace said about him?

I'm afraid it's just made up to comfort myself.

Thinking of this, Ah Zi smiled helplessly, and fell asleep unconsciously.

Early the next morning, Zuo Qiyang really waited early under the corridor outside his wing, and sent Ah Zi all the way into the Sacred Heart Palace.

The Empress Dowager was still wearing a very simple robe, and at this time, she was playing with the flowers and plants in the palace with the support of the queen, and when she saw Zuo Qiyang leading Ah Zi in, she turned her head and smiled and ordered someone to show the two of them.

"The emperor doesn't need you to accompany him?" Seeing that Zuo Qiyang was actually coming to her palace again, the Empress Dowager couldn't help asking.

"I'll go over later," Zuo Qiyang replied, "Don't you want to come and see your old man first, and the emperor won't blame him if he knows." ”

The Empress Dowager smiled and said two words to him, caught a glimpse of the wound on his forehead, restrained her smile again, sighed and said: "Ciyong, this child, is sometimes a little anxious, two or three sentences are not his temper, he will be angry, he has been raised by his father since he was a child, and now he is the king of a country, he should be calmer, but he can't change it."

"He doesn't have a heart, and you know that he values you, so don't take it to heart."

Zuo Qiyang couldn't sit still any longer, got up and solemnly bowed to the Empress Dowager.

The Empress Dowager said seriously. How dare the minister question the saint, you and the emperor's kindness to me, Wechen always keep in mind, dare not have the slightest negligence, the emperor's lesson, is just a wake-up call and reminder to Wechen, that is the deep responsibility of love, how can Wechen not know what to do, resentment. ”

The Empress Dowager waved her hand and sighed: "That's it, don't talk to me about these vain things, just know it yourself." ”

Ah Zi watched from the side, but his heart became more and more respectful of the old man in front of him.

If yesterday I was just moved by the love, harmony and approachability of the Empress Dowager, yesterday I heard Zuo Qiyang talk about her deeds, and now I look at this peaceful old man, thinking that she was treated like that by her closest relatives, but now she can still be kind, such a repaying grievances with virtue, what kind of broad-mindedness can be done.

The Empress Dowager on the opposite side was already smiling with a mocking tone: "Last night, Imperial Doctor Liu came to me angrily and scolded you, I appeased him twice, and sent him away." But after thinking about it, he didn't understand who the little girl he was talking about was the little girl with a big ghost. Today, the two of you came together, and I realized that I was old and confused, isn't there such a little girl in front of me? (To be continued.) )
