Chapter 358: Time

readx;

Zhu Di's praise fell on him, like thorns around his body, he lowered his head, and heard his voice calm and heavy, "Your Majesty is in distress, and the ministers and others are all guilty, and they dare not receive such praise from Your Majesty." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

"What's wrong with you? It was I who accidentally landed on the road for a while, and it was also these minions who did not do a good job of body searching! ”

Although Zhu Di has the character of self-reflection, he is even more strict and mean to the palace eunuchs, and as he scolded, many people let out desperate and fearful cries and were dragged down.

"I have punished those who have done wrong, but I have to reward those who have merit...... I heard that the signs of this assassination were discovered by your Jinyi guards? ”

Zhu Di said that in front of the Xihua Gate, Li Sheng made up the words "someone is plotting rebellion" in order to let Guangsheng enter, but at this moment, he is crookedly showing that Jinyi Wei is taking precautions and investigating carefully.

Guangsheng listened to a series of rewards in his ears, but his heart was anxious and difficult to bear, and finally waited for the Zhongguan to pass on the decree, he made a big salute and thanked him, but suddenly said: "I don't know if the Holy Lord can give Weichen a grace?" ”

"Oh, what do you want?"

"Of course, Hu Shirujun's assassination is a big rebellion, but now that she is dead, can I take back her body and take it back for a good burial."

As soon as this request came out, the surroundings suddenly became terrifyingly quiet, and everyone sweated for his boldness - Zhu Di likes to insult all kinds of people who oppose him, and he will not let go even after death.

"What an amorous seed ......"

Zhu Di sighed, his voice was not angry, "You have saved my life many times, and it stands to reason that you should make an exception, but ......"

These two words made Guangsheng's heart tighten, and what followed it made his eyes dark-

"I've already thrown the corpses into mass graves, and they've been gnawed to the bones!"

Guangsheng's heart shook wildly, his fingertips were deeply inserted into the gold bricks, and he used all his strength to suppress it without gaffe!

****

At dawn, when the canopy was at its darkest, Guangsheng rode his horse and galloped all the way, and finally arrived at the mass grave.

The ghosts are full of fire, the green is fleeting, and the crows around them are like demon screams, which makes people shudder.

There were piles of black soil everywhere, and there were a few thin-skinned coffins exposed, and more were broken mats and wooden boxes thrown at random on the side of the road, and even a pair of feet were half rotten and exposed.

The smell of corpses came with the smell of the river next to him, and Guangsheng was anxious, searching everywhere for traces of the Yiren.

Where the hell are you?

When he was fighting in the Zhaoren Hall before, he unexpectedly touched a porcelain bottle in his sleeve, and his heart suddenly lit up.

This was seized from the red note, and it was swallowed by Jing Yu when she faked her death, which could keep people in the state of corpses for twelve hours, so that they could secretly exchange the dead and the living, so that she could pretend to be Miss Zhang.

So Guangsheng had an idea, applied the medicine to the long arrow, and shot Rujun - his arrow was superb, deliberately hitting the chest but avoiding the heart, inserting the lobe of the lung, in fact, it was not really fatal, but the medicine on the arrow could make her fall into a state of suspended animation.

It was the only way to save her at the time.

originally thought that if she was angry with Zhu Di, she could find the body and resuscitate her afterwards, but who knows, the body was thrown on the mass grave.

God willing, don't have anything to do with the county!

Guangsheng's heart was pounding, searching everywhere but still finding nothing, his heart was anxious, but at this time, the old man of the guard came to ask, "Young man, what are you looking for?" ”

Guangsheng grabbed him and asked, and the old man sighed: "This time, because the flood has receded, some people have suffered from summer heat and epidemics, and they have all been thrown here, and the corpses have piled up, and they have probably been washed into the Yangtze River." ”

Only then did Guangsheng discover that this mass grave was against a bend in the river, and if the corpse was high, it would easily slide down and be swept away and swallowed by the river.

Rujun was seriously injured, unconscious and fell into suspended animation, if she was washed into the Yangtze River, there was no chance of survival!

Filled with rage, he trembled and searched everywhere until the first rays of the sun illuminated the earth, and then he fell to his knees exhausted, tears falling from his eyes.

It is not colorless and crystalline, but a blood-stained mourning and remorse......

"Rujun, I asked you to believe me, you really did it, but I didn't expect that in the end, the person who buried your life turned out to be me!"

His ten fingers dug tightly into the sand and gravel on the ground, and gradually, the blood stained red, and the skin and flesh bloomed, but he didn't realize it.

"Ah――――――h

He shouted hoarsely, a low roar of pain echoing between the hills and the river.

The river is surging forward, just like every morning for thousands of years.

Eight years later

The autumn of the 22nd year of Yongle came late, and the hot days of summer had already made the people of Beijing sweat and miserable.

It has been a few years since the capital was moved, although everyone thinks that Beiping is cold and bitter, not as prosperous as Nanjing, but at least the summer is still cool, I didn't expect this year to be so evil, plus the recent situation is uneasy, the whole Beiping is no longer at ease in the past.

In the upper room of the Hou main courtyard in Jining, the green leaves in front of the window were half-dyed yellow and red by the autumn wind, and the desolation was revealed in the Xiao Suo, but the Hou Mansion secretly said: It was dyed red by the blood of the unjust souls under the Hou Ye.

When this vicious rumor reached Guangsheng's ears, he was looking out of the window, and when he heard this, he only smiled slightly, and he was not even ready to track down and punish anyone.

"I think it's kind of funny...... If the blood of the people I killed would be enough to stain the red leaves, then more than 2,000 people died in the palace, and the blood would be enough to dye every inch of the ground in the capital, right? ”

Guangsheng's poisonous tongue in private was really sharp, but it made the visiting cousin Ruyao's face turn slightly pale, she seemed to think of something terrible, and her throat was retching, but she couldn't help it.

"Did you see that scene too?"

Guangsheng was stunned for a moment and then realized.

Ruyao shook her head and didn't answer, she drank a few sips of water to get better, and the brother and sister fell into a long silence.

"Master Hou, no, second brother, they all said that the emperor was crazy."

Ruyao said in a low voice, remembering the scene she bumped into in the palace, her eyes suddenly turned red.

The palace maid whose clothes were half-faded to reveal the snow-white **, ran out wailing, her body was covered with pus and burnt black, she was quickly caught up by the eunuchs, and dragged back despite her crazy struggle, and the blood was dripping on the ground all the way......

Three corpses were piled up in the broken wooden box, gray and shriveled like skeletons, obviously dying of thirst or starvation, and the little yellow doors carried them out, their feet sluggish and their eyes dead and silent like undead.

She shuddered and didn't dare to think about it anymore, but her voice was filled with crying, "The palace is full of dead people, and living people don't look like people anymore......"

The bizarre horror of all this was called the "Yulu Rebellion" by the people of the government and the opposition, and the cause was that a few years ago, Zhu Di's beloved concubine was poisoned, and it was found out that Lu Meiren, who was also a Korean tribute girl, asked the eunuch villager to bring arsenic, and Lu Meiren and her family were tortured to death at that time.
