Chapter 45: The Guilty
And this feedback back has not been heard from for a few days.
She presided over the overall situation in Hanoi for a few days, and the people believed in her very much.
But at this time, the imperial court issued a document to let her return to Kyoto quickly.
She didn't know exactly what was going on, but the only thing she knew was ...... It must not be a good thing.
"My lord, will you ever come back?"
It was an old woman who had been taken care of by Meng Fan these days.
Not to mention the food and drink, he also helped her do a lot of work.
Seeing that Meng Fan was leaving, their faces were full of reluctance.
Meng Fan told them that it was okay for her to go back, just report it truthfully.
They all nodded, and some of them understood, silently turned around and stopped talking.
Let's not talk about Meng Fan's first cut and then play, let's talk about the few adults she brought out.
Who is not a famous and powerful person in this great abyss, even if it is said that the Meng family is the most outstanding among the clans.
However, how could this single Meng family fight with the rest of the Dayuan family?
Think about it, you know what kind of situation Meng Fan will face when he goes back.
And Meng Fan herself naturally knew about it, and she was ready to fall out with the emperor and the clan for this matter.
However, I was still uneasy in my heart.
If it really went in the worst direction, what should she do, she really didn't think clearly.
After driving on the road for nearly three days, early on the third morning, I vaguely saw the gates of Kyoto.
Meng Fan's carriage drove slowly past, but suddenly stopped.
"Taifu, Zhikai is here to pick you up." Gu Zhikai's voice came.
Meng Fan opened the curtain, only to see Gu Zhikai dressed neatly, tidying up and standing outside the carriage with large and small things.
He smiled at Meng Fan, opened Meng Fan's curtain and said, "Come down!" Taifu. ”
Meng Fan said that she still had to enter the palace to face the saint.
Gu Zhikai said very seriously, his fifth brother is back, and the emperor has no time to see Meng Fan.
"Your fifth brother? Gu Yin? How did he get back? Meng Fan asked five questions in a row, but Gu Zhikai didn't answer any of them.
just dragged Meng Fan towards his mansion, there were few people on this street, maybe because they were listless one by one too early.
Only Gu Zhikai in front of him was still excited.
And when he arrived at Gu Zhikai's mansion, he put down the things in his hand.
Instead, he asked Meng Fan and said, Taifu, do you want to exchange the entire Meng family for a temporary peaceful and prosperous world?
Meng Fan looked at him in surprise, what he said was indeed right, but it was indeed not like what Gu Zhikai could say.
"Don't look at me in surprise, just answer my questions when I'm grown up." Gu Zhikai said, one hand firmly clasped Meng Fan.
Meng Fan was a little sluggish, she was indeed gambling with the Meng family, but what was wrong with the "temporary" peaceful and prosperous world that Gu Zhikai said.
She's gone, and there won't be anyone who will come forward to do these things, maybe not.
"Zhikai, what are you talking about...... I really don't know how to answer. ”
The two then fell silent.
After a while, Gu Zhikai said: "Then let's assume that these things have not happened......"
"How is it possible, I have seen everything in Hanoi in my eyes, and I can't act as if I have never seen it."
Once Meng Fan's temperament became stubborn, he was more stubborn than a donkey.
Gu Zhikai deeply realized that Meng Fan stayed in the wild forest for a few days in order to send him a falcon, and boiled the eagle like a little parrot before coming out.
A person who boils eagles naturally has a fierce temperament.
"Thousands of people in the world are living hard and dying miserably, do you want to take care of them all?"
"I don't want to care, I've been worried, but when you see their eyes begging at you, when you hear them say lightly, we just want to live, where is the mood to think so much."
The two argued for a long time, and there was no ending.
Seeing that the sky is about to be completely brightened, the emperor must be summoning Meng Fan at that time.
Gu Zhikai could expect Meng Fan to look when he stood in the court and handed over the list of corrupt officials.
No, anyone can go, but Meng Fan can't.
He has this extraordinary importance to himself.
"Taifu, that means that today no matter what, you have to hand over this thing to that emperor?"
Meng Fan nodded cautiously.
"Okay, I'll go!"
As he spoke, Meng Fan stretched out his hand to take the fold, but suddenly his legs went numb and he fell.
"My good wife, sleep well, Zhikai is gone."
He laughed, not knowing why he laughed.
Xu was happy for the first time to be able to help Meng Fan deal with things.
And this short distance of a few hundred meters, he walked for a long time.
Gu Zhiyu on the side asked softly, "Do you really want to give this to the emperor?" ”
"I don't know, but it should be handed over."
As he spoke, a man in plain white clothes leaned against a peach tree and smiled at them.
That person looked almost exactly like King Qi when he was young, needless to say that he was that Gu Yin.
Gu Zhikai called respectfully, fifth brother.
Gu Zhiyu, who was behind him, also shouted in the way of face.
That Gu Yin raised his head slightly and replied, "Hmm! He stopped talking, but began to observe the branches of the tree with all his heart.
Gu Zhikai and Gu Zhiyu also knew that people were unwilling to deal with them, so the two of them left in a funny way.
When it came to the court, the faces of several ministers were very bad, and they didn't know why.
Meng Yu stood there as if there was nothing big today, still talking with a good person about which song was good.
It took less than a moment for all of them to be together.
The emperor also came early today, with a smile on his face, needless to say, he also knew that his favorite son was back, could he not be happy?
Gu Zhikai doesn't care, it's not his own father anyway.
And when the emperor asked what the report was.
Originally, one of Gu Zhikai's feet had already stepped out, but he didn't say a word.
I only heard a minister on the side say, "The minister has a book." ”
Gu Zhikai said secretly, it's over, maybe he wants to be one step ahead of others.
He was looking at the man worriedly.
He said slowly: "The ministers reported Gu Zhiyan's corruption. ”
What the!
Almost everyone in this court was surprised, especially this Gu Zhiyan, whose face could not be described in words.
In a quarter of an hour, it had already changed and changed.
And when he saw the evidence presented by those ministers, his whole thing was completely bad.
"Father, don't believe such one-sided words, your son is wronged!"
As he spoke, a sentence slowly came from outside the hall-"This guilty person likes to shout a wish, and it turns out that the third brother is too." ”
It was Gu Zhikai who spoke, and Gu Yin they met outside.
He walked slowly with a bouquet of plum blossoms that had been blooming for a long time and were about to wither, but he didn't come in, just lazily leaned on the pillar on the side, looking at the beautiful scenery outside.
