Chapter 56 Throwing a pot determines life and death

Steward Liu drove the carriage all the way to the gate of the city, and no one was allowed to go out of the city after the end of the day, and now that it was the time of the child, if he drove out of the city, he would definitely be blocked.

When he arrived at the gate of the city, someone intercepted him, and Steward Liu pretended to be eager and said to the guards guarding the door: "A few military masters, my son is very sick and needs to go outside the city to ask for a doctor, and I hope that a few military masters will be accommodating." ”

"What kind of accommodation, you are not allowed to leave the city after curfew, if we let you out, we will kill you! Go, go! A soldier sent him away coldly.

"It's not that there are no doctors in the city, so why go out of the city to find a doctor? Are you sure it's your son in this car? Another seasoned soldier noticed that something was wrong and asked with a frown.

Steward Liu secretly took out a bag of silver and stuffed it into the soldier's hand, and smiled flatteringly: "It is more dewy, the weather is cold, all the officials buy some wine to warm up, it is indeed my son in the car, and I also ask a few officials to be accommodating." ”

"Take back your money!" The soldiers guarding the gate did not buy it, threw the silver to Steward Liu, and then walked towards the carriage.

Seeing this, Steward Liu hurriedly stopped him, and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes, "The doctor said that my son has smallpox, and this is a plague!" The doctors in the city didn't dare to accept it, so I took my son out of the city, and my son's life will be gone if it's too late! All the officials, okay! ”

As soon as he heard that it was smallpox, the soldier who was about to touch the curtain of the car withdrew his hand like an electric shock, walked a few steps to the side with a gloomy face, frowned and said to him impatiently: "Let's go, let's go!" ”

"Hey...... Thank you, this official! Steward Liu happily agreed, but he was not in a hurry to leave, because he could have chosen to leave the city at the city gate closer to the prison, but there was a person waiting for him at this city gate......

At this moment, a cold snort came from behind him, "Do you believe smallpox?" Let him go without even looking at it, I don't think you want to die! ”

At this moment, a powerful officer came over and shouted a reprimand to the soldiers guarding the door.

This person's name is Zhao Lin, and he is one of Wu Min's confidants, and he happens to be on duty here today. All this was arranged by them, Steward Liu was responsible for pretending to escape, Zhao Lin was responsible for carjacking, and finally caught someone, Zhao Lin was promoted to become rich, and Steward Liu fled into seclusion.

The moment Zhao Lin lifted the curtain, Steward Liu suddenly pulled his legs and ran, and the soldiers on the side found that the situation was wrong and hurriedly got up to chase after him.

As soon as Zhao Lin lifted the curtain of the car, he saw Zuo Mingwen lying unconscious in the car, he sneered in his heart, and then shouted: "You guys go and help, the person just now was a prison robber, and the person in the car is Zuo Shangshu's son, Zuo Mingwen!" Catch the man who helped him escape, and you're rewarded! ”

Several soldiers under his command were overjoyed when they heard this, for fear that their colleagues who had just gone to arrest people would get the reward first, so they hurriedly chased in the direction where Steward Liu had fled.

Zhao Lin made arrangements for the other soldiers, and then drove the carriage to the criminal department, as for whether Steward Liu will be caught, it depends on his life.

The next morning.

The low pressure in the court was so depressing that everyone was a little out of breath, and everyone lowered their heads and didn't dare to come out.

"Zuo Shangshu, you can really do it!" After a long time, Mu Yunzhen slowly spoke with anger.

When Zuo Yi heard this, he was shocked, and an ominous premonition enveloped his heart, and as soon as his legs were weak, he knelt on the ground, and said tremblingly: "The old minister is stupid, please make it clear to Your Majesty." ”

Mu Yunzhen didn't find this Zuo Yi turned out to be a master who didn't cry when he didn't see the coffin, and he was even more angry in his heart for a while, and said angrily: "Explicit? You still have the face to let me make it clear, don't you know what you did yourself? Burning prisons, robbing death row prisoners, do you want me to be more clear? ”

Mu Yunzhen's roar shook the entire hall and trembled.

Zuo Yi didn't expect that Steward Liu's rescue failed, and it reached the emperor's ears so quickly, and he was so frightened that he almost fell to the ground, kneeling there and shaking like chaff, unable to say half a word.

"Nothing to say?" Mu Yunzhen glared angrily at Zuo Yi, who was kneeling on the ground, and said coldly.

"Zuo Yi, as an official of the imperial court, knows the law and violates the law, burns the prison, robs the death row prisoner, the crime is unforgivable, but he has meritorious service to the community, exempts him from capital crimes, and distributes the frontier, the crime is the same as the nine clans, and there is no forgiveness in case of forgiveness! Someone came, took off his official clothes, and then pulled out! Mu Yunzhen said coldly, extremely disappointed in Zuo Yi's approach.

Zuo Yi knelt there, letting the guards take off their official uniforms, and from beginning to end, he didn't say a word to argue for himself and beg for mercy, and the whole person was as wooden as a walking corpse.

Perhaps, from the moment he knew that Zuo Mingwen's escape failed, he had lost all hope of survival......

When the guards dragged Zuo Yi out of the main hall, Mu Yunzhen said to the officials below: "Now that the position of the head of the household department is vacant, the affairs of the household department must not be left unattended, Zhong Aiqing will go back to draw up a candidate, we will discuss it tomorrow, and retreat!" ”

After retiring from the dynasty, Mu Yunche returned to the palace, and he was not surprised that Mu Yunzhen did not promote him to the head of the household, after all, Mu Yunzhen would not let his chess piece be afraid too quickly.

As soon as he entered the palace, a eunuch from the palace came to pass the word, saying that Zhang Guifei wanted to see him and ordered him to enter the palace immediately.

Mu Yunche already had a monstrous hatred in his heart for this enemy who killed his mother, if she hadn't killed her mother, there would have been no disaster of the Xuanyuan family.

Immortals and demons fight, and there is no Xuanyuan!

After the war of immortals and demons, no one in the world has the surname Xuanyuan, and no one dares to have the surname Xuanyuan, because as long as someone dares to have the surname Xuanyuan, they will be wiped out! It can be seen from this how deeply the people of the world are afraid and afraid of the Xuanyuan family.

Mu Yunche followed the eunuch who passed the message into the palace and came to Jingyan Palace, where Concubine Zhang Guifei had already prepared refreshments and waited there early.

As soon as he saw Mu Yunche, he said enthusiastically: "Che'er is here, sit down!" ”

Seeing this, Mu Yunche didn't say much, and found a chair to sit opposite Zhang Guifei.

"I don't know why the concubine called me today?" Mu Yunche sat there and didn't buy Zhang Guifei's enthusiasm, picked up the tea cup next to him and blew it gently.

"You kid, really, can't I talk to you if it's okay?" Zhang Guifei pretended to be angry and said angrily.

Seeing that Mu Yunche didn't answer, he wasn't angry, he still smiled enthusiastically: "I called you here today to talk to you, congratulations on taking up the position of household servant, and marrying Miss Yuanbao, the granddaughter of the national teacher Yuan Xiu, it is really gratifying and promising!" ”

Zhang Guifei paused, secretly observed Mu Yunche's reaction with her eyes, and saw that he was still drooping his eyelids, without any expression, and then said: "After hearing about this a few days ago, I was also very happy in my heart, and I wanted to congratulate you as soon as possible, but your uncompetitive imperial brother was sick at that time, and I took care of it for a few days, and then I was free, so I specially prepared something for you as a congratulatory gift." ”

As she spoke, the maid on the side brought up three trays and stood in front of Mu Yunche in turn.

I saw a maid holding a statue of Guanyin made of white jade, exquisite workmanship, smooth and smooth lines, at a glance it is from the hand of a famous teacher, and it is priceless.

The other is a pair of dragon and phoenix gold bracelets, which are inlaid with various colors of jade gemstones, which are very gorgeous.

The last one is a token with the jade seal on it.

"This Guanyin was given to me by your father back then, saying that it was a son Guanyin, it is strange to say, this Guanyin statue came to me not long ago, I had your imperial brother, and now I am married, I will give it to you, I hope you can get a noble son as soon as possible!" Zhang Guifei introduced herself.

"I specially ordered this pair of dragon and phoenix bracelets to be beaten, and the appearance was also designed by me personally, which can be regarded as my heart."

"Oh, that's right, this token is a token given by the emperor to you to enter and leave the palace, the emperor thinks it is more appropriate for me to give him to you, you always stay outside the palace, I don't know how much your father misses you, he is a knife mouth tofu heart, he must maintain the majesty of the emperor, I obviously want to see you, but I want to tell you, I can only let me be this messenger."

Zhang Guifei said to Mu Yunche seriously, like a loving mother, and she didn't know that she thought Mu Yunche was her own son!

"Then thank you for the kindness of the concubine, but I can't accept this token, please return it to my father!" Mu Yunche looked at all this coldly, he had already seen through the truth and falsehood of Zhang Guifei's words, and it was not certain whose token it was!

"If you don't take it, let your father give it to you another day!" Zhang Guifei saw that Mu Yunche was not tricked, so she didn't dare to force it, for fear that he would find out the clues.

"I heard that Hubu Shangshu made a big mistake in order to save his son, and he has been dismissed, it's a pity, he has been an official for many years, and he has been conscientious, but in the end, he is not guaranteed, Zuo Mingwen is really an unfilial son, and he actually killed the court official for a Qinglou woman, you say that this Zuo Mingwen is too bold, right?" Zhang Guifei saw that Mu Yunche had not spoken, so she said tentatively.

"Concubine Niangniang, the people of the harem should not discuss the government in vain, be cautious." Mu Yunche didn't want to answer her any questions, she just wanted to take the opportunity to test whether Zuo Mingwen and Zuo Yi's affairs were related to her, and wanted to judge his position by this.

But he didn't let her get her wish, so let her guess slowly, the more she couldn't guess, the more she didn't dare to do it to herself.

"If the concubine has nothing else to do, the son will leave!" Mu Yunche didn't want to say anything, so he got up and said goodbye.

"Then Che'er will be free another day, and then come and sit with me, I like your temperament very much, unlike my family Jing'er, who only knows how to dance with guns and sticks, and can't sit still for half a moment!" Zhang Guifei smiled and asked Mu Yunche to send him out.

After Mu Yunche left, Zhang Guifei snorted coldly: "This Mu Yunche has a little thought, and he hides it so deeply, I don't believe that you can't leak the fox's tail!" ”

It was already ten o'clock in the evening when Mu Yunche returned to the palace, and the little seven and eight were practicing the exercises in their rooms, and no one came out to pay attention to him, so he didn't care, and went back to his room.

I saw that there were nine vase-like things arranged on the ground in Mu Yunche's house, and one of the bottles with the household part written on it was inserted with a feather arrow.

Mu Yunche took a few feather arrows from the quiver on the side, and threw them casually like the bottle in front of him, and even threw four or five of them, and finally hit the sixth one!

Seeing the word "Ministry of War" written on the bottle, Mu Yunche sneered, and said in his heart: "Lord Wu, I'm sorry!" ”
