Chapter Twenty-Five: What a Shame on Your Life
Guo Zhiyuan saw that Chen Ju was a little hesitant, and he had the courage to pretend to be righteous and awe-inspiring: "The factory is worried that the kid's nonsense will anger the saint? You can rest assured that the boy is not a dull person, don't you know that if you anger the saint, you will be killed? If the boy is just to clear my father's grievances, he only needs to ask the factory to preside over the three-church trial tomorrow, and whether my father has been wronged or not will he know for himself, so why should he be willing to take such a risk to meet the saint? In fact, because this demon book case is delayed for one more day, it will hurt me a little more to the Ming Dynasty, if I can retain a little more vitality for my Daming, why would the kid regret this life! ……”。
Now Chen Ju is really moved, Guo Zhiyuan can risk killing his head to face the saint for the truth of the demon book case, what about taking on some of the responsibilities for him? He trembled a little excitedly, nodded his hand, and Guo Zhiyuan said loudly: "Okay! What a life! If all my Ming courtiers have such a mind as you, why worry about my Ming Dynasty not being happy! Just rush to your pure heart, and the miscellaneous family will help you this time! Tomorrow afternoon, Long Live Lord will convene important ministers in the Qixiang Palace to discuss the Demon Book case, I will ask Long Live Lord to summon you into the palace tomorrow to face the saint, as for whether you can seize the opportunity is up to you! ……”。
Seeing that Chen Ju was so excited, Guo Zhiyuan couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed that he had fooled this respectable old man, the reason why he took the risk to meet the saint was naturally not because of the righteous and awe-inspiring reasons he said earlier, but for a reason.
Although he is ready to use Hui Shengguang as a scapegoat to cover up the truth of the demon book case, it is a difficult problem to draw the investigator's eyes to this scapegoat without a trace, in history, it was more than ten days after Hui Shengguang was arrested, and at that time Guo Zhengyu had been made to look like a person, and the Donglin Party was almost beaten, and his vitality was greatly damaged, so Guo Zhiyuan grabbed time, because he did not want to change history, but to promote history.
At this time, some readers must have said it, so he told Chen Ju directly, wouldn't it be over if Chen Ju went to search for Shengguang's home? But don't forget that everyone has a preconceived psychology, if Guo Zhiyuan directly told Chen Ju that Hui Shengguang was the culprit of the demon book case, you go to catch it, Chen Ju will definitely think that this must be a trick played by this kid, even if Chen Ju believes it, Shen Cheng and others will definitely not believe it, and they want to make a big fuss, such a toss, and the time will be delayed, so Guo Zhiyuan can only go directly to Wanli and persuade this big boss, and others will not dare to say anything even if they are suspicious, so this is the most direct and effective way.
In addition, Guo Zhiyuan also has a layer of selfishness, that is, since he has traveled to this era, he naturally has to make a difference, Wanli has reigned for nearly 20 years, whether he can mix well in this era, to a large extent, depends on the big boss's impression of himself, can take this opportunity to show his face in front of this big boss, hang up, it will be much easier to mix in the future, wealth and danger, Guo Zhiyuan naturally wants to take a chance.
Although he has his own little Jiujiu, Guo Zhiyuan has a little respect for Chen Ju at this time, and bows sincerely and says: "Thank you for the success of the factory!" The boy will live up to the expectations of the factory! ”。
Chen Ju glanced at Guo Zhiyuan with satisfaction, waved his hand and said: "Tomorrow, the miscellaneous family will preside over the three sessions, but it can't take care of you, you act carefully, you really want to anger Long live, the miscellaneous family can't protect you, tomorrow you wait at home, if the saint is approved, the miscellaneous family will send someone to summon you into the palace to face the saint, you go down first......."
As soon as Guo Zhiyuan left, Li Ying immediately got out and hurriedly said to Chen Ju: "Did the factory really believe that little girl's rhetoric, don't do it!" ……”。
"Shut up! I'm in my own hands! Chen Ju shouted, Li Ying was so frightened that his legs trembled, he quickly knelt down, and said in a loud voice: "The factory forgives the sin, the factory forgives the sin!" Chen Ju then glanced at Li Ying with squinted eyes, and said faintly: "Li Ying, you have been by the side of the Za family for more than ten years, and the Za family treats you like a father and son, do you think you have been to Zheng Guifei's palace frequently recently, I don't know?" The miscellaneous family is not confused to that share! The miscellaneous family is old, you have your mind, I don't blame you for ......".
Speaking of this, Chen Ju's tone suddenly changed, and he said: "But today's matter, if you leak the slightest rumor, don't blame me for not remembering the old feelings!" ……”。
Li Ying's body trembled, and she didn't dare to tell half a sentence, but her head was like pounding garlic, she slammed on the ground, and said in a trembling voice: "Damn it!" Little damn it! It wasn't until his head was bleeding that Chen Ju waved his hand lightly and said: "That's it, I miss that you have served the miscellaneous family for many years, and this time I will not blame the past, if there is a next time, I will peel your skin carefully!" I'm tired, so you can step down first......."
Guo Zhiyuan didn't fall asleep all night, tossing and turning in bed thinking about how to deal with Emperor Wanli tomorrow, got up early the next morning, paced in the courtyard restlessly, and sent Wang Xi to the mouth of the alley to guard, so that he would hurry back to report when he saw someone from the palace, after all, this is to see the Son of Heaven, and it would be false to say that he was not nervous.
"It's coming, it's coming!" Wang Xi finally ran in panting, Guo Zhiyuan was overjoyed, and hurriedly dressed up to welcome him out, but it was Zhang Cheng who came, Guo Zhiyuan was disappointed, and glared at Wang Xi, a daredevil, but it was not good for Zhang Cheng, after all, Zhang Cheng was doing his best to help him, patted him on the shoulder and said: "It's hard Brother Zhang, let's take a sip of tea and take a breath in the first room before ......."
Zhang Cheng glanced at Guo Zhiyuan with respect, Guo Zhiyuan didn't ask if the matter was done, but let himself go first to drink tea and rest, there are not many masters who are so sympathetic to the people, it seems that he is really with the right person, and hurriedly waved his hand and said: "It is the blessing of the villain to be able to do things for the son, why is it hard, fortunately, the matter has been done properly......."
It turned out that Zhang Cheng followed Guo Zhiyuan's instructions yesterday to collect some evidence of Xuan Shengguang's previous blackmailing of others, and found a few broken settlements to scare Xuan Shengguang, who was so frightened that he fled the capital with his family overnight, and should have escaped from Tongzhou at this time, Zhang Cheng made some arrangements in Hui Shengguang's house, and then came back to report to Guo Zhiyuan.
This is the first good news Guo Zhiyuan heard today, and the good student praised Zhang Cheng, and rewarded Zhang Cheng with fifty taels of silver tickets, so that he could go back to rest first. I waited anxiously for several hours, these hours were too difficult, Guo Zhiyuan was about to go crazy, didn't Emperor Wanli agree to Chen Ju's request, he didn't want to see himself as a nobody, then his wishful thinking was all in vain!
At this time, Wang Xi ran in panting again, "It's coming, it's coming!" Guo Zhiyuan glared at Wang Xi angrily and reprimanded: "Wang Xi, I said can you make it clear at one time, who is coming?" Shocked, you want to kill the young master and me in a hurry! ……”。
