Chapter 196: It's Better Than Dying at Your Hands
"Such a proposal is simply presumptuous, how can I tolerate such an arrogant competition in my Xichu Imperial Palace, it is difficult for human life to be child's play in the eyes of the Northern Liang National Teacher!"
As soon as he heard Doroye's proposal, before Li Le could speak, a minister got up to attack him, but whether this was a move because human life was at stake made people think about it separately, after all, this minister was a servant of the Criminal Department, and he had already had a lot of human blood on his hands, and at this time, using this reason to angrily denounce Bei Liang's cruelty sounded a bit far-fetched.
But it didn't break it, after all, they were all colleagues of Xichu, and they naturally had to unite in the face of outsiders, and besides, what this criminal department servant was worried about at this time was also something they were worried about.
If the other party chooses someone, it is very likely that they will be selected, not that they don't believe in the medical skills of the county lord of Lanning, but after all, it is a matter of gambling with their own lives, and they still dare not respond easily.
"This lord said this a little late, His Majesty the Emperor of Chu has approved this competition, and the life and death certificate has also been signed, if you regret it, I am afraid that the face of the Western Chu royal family will not look good." Doroye hooked the corners of her lips, and returned it with the words of Xi Chu when she scolded her before, and her heart was suddenly refreshed, "But don't worry, my lord, although the minister and the county lord propose to pick people for each other, but the choice must be a friend who is familiar with him, after all, there are many people in Xichu at this time, and there are few people in our Beiliang, if you choose at will in this palace, it is also unfair to the county lord, and the minister still knows the proportion." ”
The following words seemed to be for the sake of the servant of the criminal department, but it also completely blocked Li Le's retreat, and it was not easy for him to participate in this competition, how could she let others obstruct it.
"This ......"
Hearing this, the squire of the criminal department looked embarrassed, and many courtiers who had the same thoughts as him did not look away at this time.
Since it has nothing to do with their lives, there is naturally no need to continue to stop it, and the people around Li Le who are going to die are also those around them, so it is good that they have nothing to do with them.
It's just that what you want to be pierced like this, and you still feel as if you are unclothed and let others guide you.
"Since the national teacher of Beiliang has solved all these worries, then the county lord has nothing to say, so please choose the national teacher first."
I have long been accustomed to seeing people's hearts cold, so I have no intention of continuing to pursue these self-centered courtiers at this time, so I pretended to be helpless.
"The county lord is refreshing, and the minister is better than obeying his fate." Hearing this, Doroye was overjoyed in her heart, and hurriedly responded, and then raised her eyes and pretended to look at the few people who had just been maintained, and found that no one flinched, and she was also a little surprised, but she already had a candidate in her heart, so she didn't hesitate much, and finally fell her eyes on Mu Changjin.
"Look at the national teacher of Beiliang, this is a grudge, looking at Ben Hou at this time, I think I want to participate in this competition."
Predictable.
Mu Changjin still pretended to be helpless, as if he was extremely reluctant to participate.
"It's boring to come to Mu Xiaohou to sit there, it's better to come up and try it in person, presumably with the relationship between you and the county lord of Lanning, the county lord will do his best."
Seeing Mu Changjin's reaction, Doroye was even happier in his heart, and he worked hard to drag Mu Changjin into this competition.
"I'm afraid that the national teacher has misunderstood something, if Benhou is poisoned, I'm afraid that the county lord will just stand by and watch, and it would be good if he didn't continue to add material to me, for the sake of his life, he still didn't participate in this matter."
Hearing this, Mu Changjin said deliberately, and at the same time glanced at Li Lechu carefully, and sure enough, he saw a pair of annoyed eyes.
"Mu Xiaohou is really expensive, he doesn't even dare to play this kind of competition, and he is not afraid of jokes when it is passed out."
The corners of Li Le's lips hooked up a sneer, and he mocked with seven points true and three points false.
Is this person itchy to the skin, and said that he would pit this Beiliang National Teacher together, but now he gave her this whole play, is this for fear that others will not know that they are close!
"It's better to laugh than to die at your hands."
He stepped back again, as if he was doing so in order to stay away from Li Le, which made the latter eager to rush down now and teach him a good lesson.
"Okay, since you say so, then you have to be used today to test the county lord, see if the Beiliang National Master will poison you first, or I will poison you first!"
At this time, she was really aroused, she didn't understand why Mu Changjin did this, but these words really poked her heart and made her uncomfortable.
"You think you'll be able to decide where Benhou goes? The emperor is still here, I can't help you be so presumptuous! ”
Mu Changjin also made an angry look, and said so in public.
It really looks like the two of them are arguing.
However, only Li Le knew that Mu Changjin's last words reminded her.
Since the Beiliang National Master can see that there is a tacit understanding between them, then others can see this matter, if they are just the sons and daughters of ordinary officials, but they are the children of the two opposing marquis, the emperor can tolerate the Li Mu family fighting each other, and can also be happy to see their cooperation when necessary, but will never allow the relationship between them to become extremely close, because if so, then the balance in the court will be broken, and their Li Mu family will also become a thorn in the emperor's side.
At that time, it will be difficult for even two families to preserve.
That's why Mu Changjin took advantage of the topic and chose to retreat when everyone thought he would respond, so that the emperor would not think that there was any other relationship between them besides the task.
However, what he said still made her feel angry, and after today, she would definitely discuss with him about her medical skills.
"Since this is the case, I ask my father to decide, my son thinks that since he has already responded to the rules of the Beiliang National Division, he should act according to the rules, at this time, Mu Xiaohou Ye is in vain about Xichu's face, and he is unwilling to participate in this competition, which is really inappropriate."
knew it in her heart, but she still maintained her anger on her face, so she turned around and took the initiative to drag Emperor Chu into the water, saying that the bystanders were clear, and the authorities were confused, so she would turn Emperor Chu into the authorities.
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the county lord's move is inappropriate, after all, no one can guarantee that the county lord's medical skills can absolutely cure the other party's poison, so using poison on others is not a blasphemy of life, if the county lord does this, I am afraid that he is a vain doctor."
Mu Changjin was not to be outdone, and also bowed deeply to Emperor Chu and said earnestly.
And these words made Chu Yuesheng and the others frown.
The words of the vain healer are too serious.
"Okay, okay, you two juniors are noisy here, and the elders behind you are about to be alarmed."
Seeing such a scene, Emperor Chu was thoughtful, his eyes kept looking back and forth between the Zhenguo Marquis Mansion and the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion, and finally he held his forehead and pointed to the seat on the side and said.
At this time, everyone's attention was attracted, and they looked in the direction of Emperor Chu's finger, and sure enough, they saw the-for-tat atmosphere of Li Linyuan, the Marquis of Zhenguo, and Mu Wenwu, the Marquis of Zhongyong, and said in his heart Fortunately, the emperor spoke in time, otherwise these two people would have to make a move at this banquet.
"Your Majesty, there is only this only son in the old minister's family, if there are three long and two short, what if you want my Mu family to do so."
Seeing that Emperor Chu had already seen the situation of the two of them, Mu Wenwu did not hesitate and pleaded directly with the emperor.
"It's strange what you mean, is it possible to be so sure that my family will not be able to solve the poison of Beiliang? Do you look down on Le'er's medical skills, and you don't look down on my Zhenguo Hou Mansion! ”
As soon as he heard this, Li Linyuan was immediately unhappy, and when he slapped the table, he pointed at Mu Wenwu and said angrily.
His daughter is so good, this Mu family doesn't know how to suspect her, it's really unbearable!
"I, what kind of thing is your Zhenguo Marquis's Mansion, have you been able to afford to be Lao Tzu for so many years! If it weren't for the fact that you have guarded the border for the imperial court for more than ten years, how could Lao Tzu continue to work with you, your relatives at home can use your name to make a fortune outside, and the family affairs are not handled well, and it is not very powerful to come here to lead the troops to fight, really, how old are you and you don't have points in your head? ”
If you want to say that Mu Wenwu will be a little restrained to others, but when facing Li Linyuan, it is impossible to show the slightest mercy, and directly pick up the most ugly scolding, the more unhappy the other party is, the happier he is.
"Mu Wenwu! If you have the courage to duel head-on with Ben Hou, Ben Hou will definitely want you to understand what is the ability to lead troops to fight, and what is the posture of a general! ”
Obviously, Li Linyuan was angered by these words, and immediately raised his sword to fight a duel.
"Come on, I'm afraid you won't succeed, don't forget that our record has always been five or five, and it is not certain who will teach whom."
They are all people who have led the army and fought in battle, and at this time, the belligerent blood in the body has been awakened, and it is becoming more and more uncontrollable.
Seeing this, Li Mufeng and Mu Changjin on the side hurriedly stopped the two who were going to do it here, and everyone also took a few steps back when they saw this, and shouted dissuasion not far away.
They were also worried about what would happen if these two people really did come and affect them.
"Okay, what kind of system is it on the top of the main hall!"
Seeing this, Emperor Chu finally dispelled the last trace of doubt in his heart, got up and said angrily.
Although it is not a glorious thing for these two to quarrel in the palace, it also proves that the Li Mu family still has a deep grudge, so he can rest assured.
"For this trivial matter, there is a lot of quarrel here, where will the face of the Western Chu Imperial Court be put out."
"But Your Majesty, this is a matter of human life!"
Everyone had already knelt down in unison with Emperor Chu's rage, and after hearing Fang Cai's words, Mu Wenwu looked up in disbelief and said.
Such a matter related to human life, in the eyes of Emperor Chu, is just a trivial matter?
These words made Li Le extremely cold, she knew why Chu Jing had such a cold-blooded heart, it turned out that the son inherited his father's business, from the perspective of his previous life, Chu Jing really learned this trait ten out of ten.
It's really a person of the same vein.
