Xu Zhihe put Xu Zhixun under house arrest in the house, and told the people below not to embarrass him, but to treat him politely, as long as he does not leave the house, he will be left to him. After that, Xu Zhihe took the initiative to enter the court and told Yang Pu the reason for Xu Zhixun's house arrest.

"Your Majesty, Xu Zhixun secretly hid the emperor's special utensils, and the minister suspected that he had two hearts, and he had been recruited from Jinling, and now he is in my house, please ask the emperor to decide." Yang Pu is not stupid, he has already heard about this, and he thinks to himself, you Xu Zhihe, obviously you want to clear the opponent, but you have to borrow my name, and now I want to decide, but I want to shirk the responsibility.

"Since you are in your mansion, Lord Taiwei will deal with it yourself, after all, you are all sons of Duke Xu." Yang Pu kicked the ball to Xu Zhihe again. Yang Pu understands that Xu Zhihe has already controlled the government, and he doesn't care if he says it, let him handle it himself, at least let the ministers of the DPRK and the Central Committee see what kind of person he is. And Xu Zhihe also has an abacus in his heart, he has already thought about how to arrange Xu Zhixun, but he just uses the excuse to observe Yang Pu's position and attitude.

"Your Majesty," Xu Zhihe said, "After all, Xu Zhixun is an auxiliary general, if the minister deals with it privately, I am afraid that some people in the court will say that I have exceeded my authority, and the minister cannot afford this crime, so the emperor will decide." Yang Pu really wanted to scold after hearing this, thinking to himself that you Xu Zhihe had done less than what he overstepped his authority? Now it's time to talk about the rules, so Yang Pu deliberately said:

"Since Lord Taiwei suspects that Xu Zhixun has two intentions, it is better to kill him according to the law, so as not to harm the Wu State in the future." Xu Zhihe knew that this was not Yang Pu's intention, so he said.

"Your Majesty, although Xu Zhixun has two hearts, after all, he has not done anything rebellious so far, if he kills him so rashly, I am afraid it will be difficult to convince the public!"

"What about the Captain's opinion?" Yang Pu interrupted suddenly.

"In the opinion of the minister, it is better to dismiss his official position and title first, and give him a certain punishment to see the after-effects." In fact, this is Xu Zhihe's original intention.

Yang Pu thought to himself, Xu Zhihe, Xu Zhihe, you are more cunning than Xu Wen, you have already thought about how to deal with Xu Zhixun, and you came over to deliberately trick me, good people have let you do it, and good things have been said to you, Yang Pu suppressed the anger in his heart, and pretended to be calm and said:

"Then according to the meaning of Lord Taiwei, Xu Zhixun is your younger brother after all, and he is the son of Xu Gong, if he can change his mistakes in the future, I will give him a chance. But if he dies without repentance, I will not be spared. ”

"Thank you for my younger brother. Our emperor is generous and benevolent, which is really a blessing for the people of Wu. Xu Zhihe finished speaking and left.

After Xu Zhihe left, Yang Pu said to the people around him: "Xu Zhihe is really disappointing, it is so easy for Xu Zhihe to take it, I originally expected him to fight with Xu Zhihe, and then I secretly helped him to weaken Xu Zhihe's strength, but I didn't expect him to be so naïve, and in the future, Wu Guo will be Xu Zhihe's alone." ”

"Your Majesty, Xu Zhihe is a person who wants to be famous, he will not kill Xu Zhixun, and he will be reactivated when he has the opportunity in the future, and Xu Zhixun will definitely be grateful to His Majesty at that time." A minister beside him said.

"I'm afraid there is no chance, how can Xu Zhihe still give me a chance to let me reactivate Xu Zhixun? I'm afraid that if I really have a chance, Xu Zhihe specially tailored it for him. Hey, I originally wanted to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, but I didn't expect Xu Zhixun to come and send him to death, it's really ridiculous! Yang Pu said helplessly. In fact, Yang Pu still has a trace of luck hope in his heart, hoping that Xu Zhixun can survive this period of time, and may be able to find a chance to make a comeback in the future, no matter what, his existence is a counterbalancing force for Xu Zhihe.

Two

In this way, Xu Zhihe put Xu Zhixun under house arrest for three months, during which Xu Zhihe watched him a few times and simply exchanged a few words with him, and the two did not talk too much, the key is that Xu Zhixun was still angry, and he didn't want to talk to Xu Zhihe.

On this day, Xu Zhihe suddenly invited Xu Zhixun to a banquet, Xu Zhixun didn't want to go, but after thinking about it, if he didn't go, Xu Zhihe would definitely make things difficult for himself on the grounds of disobedience, so he was extremely reluctant to go to the banquet. At the banquet, Song Qiqiu, Zhou Zong, Sun Ji and Chang Mengxi were all there, in addition to singing and dancing performances, there were also majestic soldiers, Xu Zhixun didn't understand what Xu Zhihe's intentions were. If it's just drinking, then there's no need to be so excited, Xu Zhixun cautiously observed everything around him.

When everyone was seated, Xu Zhihe first raised a glass and toasted with everyone, and then everyone got up to toast with Xu Zhihe, everyone complimented each other, politely, and the atmosphere was very warm. After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food, at this time Xu Zhihe was drunk, he walked to Xu Zhixun and looked at him, Xu Zhixun also looked at Xu Zhihe, I don't know what he wanted to do, just when Xu Zhixun was a little nervous and overwhelmed, Xu Zhihe suddenly turned to everyone and said:

"If there is no Xu family, without my adoptive father and adoptive mother, there would be no me Xu Zhihe today, and I will never forget the great kindness of the Xu family." Then he turned to Xu Zhixun and said:

"Brother, brother respects you!" After saying that, I drank it all. Although Xu Zhixun was not happy in his heart, after all, he was now in prison, so he quickly stood up and said:

"Where does my brother speak, my brother can be outstanding, everyone knows, my father often praised my brother for his ambitions before his death, and now my brother has outstanding achievements, my foolish brother admires him, and my foolish brother respects my brother." After speaking, he drank it all.

Xu Zhihe continued, "Brother, I promised my mother, as long as I live, I will not let anyone bully you, this promise, brother, I will always remember it in my mind, imprint it in my heart, and never forget it." Not only will I not forget, but I will also tell my sons to keep this promise in the future. Saying that, his eyes were red, and everyone was greatly moved when they saw this situation, after all, the brotherhood is deep, and they feel that Xu Zhihe is a person who values love and righteousness.

Xu Zhixun didn't answer Xu Zhihe's words, he felt that Xu Zhihe was hypocritical and was deliberately performing for everyone to see, Xu Zhixun carefully observed everyone's every move, he wanted to see what would happen next, and see what medicine Xu Zhihe was selling in his gourd.
