(Xie: ZP's ambiguity and happiness and the generous reward of the two of them.) Xie: Tickets for the little spotted cat, the magical golden beetle, the sunshine's Lei Shao and other brothers. It's the beginning of the month, and those who have a vote will vote. ）

Things ferment extremely fast. On the day the incident came out, officials in Beijing broke up their relationship and demanded that the two be severely punished, and by the evening of the next day, the officials of the various prefectures around Gyeonggi also flew like snowflakes to Guo Chong's imperial book case. According to this trend, within a few days, officials from all over the city will also arrive in the capital.

Among the compromises that have been served, the vast majority of them are also asking for severe punishment for Yan Zhengsu and Fang Dunru's great rebellious words, and only a very few are interceding for the two. Even if they pleaded, no one dared to agree with Yan Fang's 'three deficiencies' remarks, but they just hoped that the imperial court would consider the previous efforts of the two adults and give them a lenient sentence.

I don't know if Guo Chong showed his mouth, or if the people around Guo Chong revealed some news. In the imperial court, there was a discussion to reconsider the root cause of the Qingjiao rebellion. The officials led by Lu Zhongtian jointly played a petition and asked Guo Chong to retract his guilty edict. said that everyone in the world knew that the emperor's edict was a benevolent act of loving Yan Zhengsu and Fang Dunru, and it was received for the two of them. This is a benevolent and righteous act, but Yan Zhengsu and Fang Dunru have failed the emperor's grace and rebelled, so they don't have to suffer for them and damage the reputation of the saint. Therefore, he asked for the revocation of the edict and made the truth public.

Obviously, this move further implements the crime of speech into the real crime of bringing disaster to the country and the people, and at the same time completely negates the matter of changing the law.

That's not all, from within the Ordinance Division, various criticisms and criticisms within the law reform faction have also emerged. Lu Zhongtian also summarized these twists and turns and sent them to Guo Chong.

And Guo Chong's attitude is also changing rapidly. Lin Jue saw that Yan Zhengsu and Fang Dunru were vague when they entered the palace the next day to return to Guo Chong, and did not make it clear that Yan Zhengsu and Fang Dunru were willing to apologize and admit their guilt. Just say what' The two adults were in pain in their hearts, quite remorseful, grateful for the emperor's kindness, and didn't know how to repay them. The two adults need to calm down and think about their mistakes, and the follow-up ministers will continue to see them and make them repent completely. ’。 Lin Jue's words sounded to Guo Chong as an excuse for not completing his mission. At this time, they still refused to apologize, which made Guo Chong's heart burn with anger.

Guo Chong did not have the heart to severely punish the two of them before, but under the impetus of various internal and external factors, Guo Chong's heart is becoming hardened. Even if they have merit, he can't bear to punish them severely, and in the face of their slanderous remarks about the foundation of the society and his rebellious remarks, but he doesn't want to repent at all, Guo Chong has to decide to severely punish the two. Changing the law is important, benevolence and righteousness are important, but all this is insignificant compared to the legitimacy of the rule of the Guo royal family and the unquestionable nature of his own son of heaven. Some people make a lot of nonsense about this, and that must not be spared.

On the 14th of the lunar month, Guo Chong issued an order to formally establish a task force. The Criminal Department and Dali Temple under the Privy Council, as well as the Yushitai led by Liu Sheng, the new Imperial Historian, formed a three-hall trial body to hear the case. This new imperial historian Liu Sheng was still the prefect of Yangzhou three years ago. When the Hangzhou Three Cities competed for the Oiran Competition, he and Shen Fang, the prefect of Jiangning, were in collusion with Wu Chunlai. Although the three-city tournament failed, under the operation of Wu Chunlai, the two were transferred to the capital to serve as presiding officers in the two rooms of the Privy Council. After Fang Dunru was dismissed as the official in the imperial history, Lu Zhongtian quickly promoted Liu Sheng to temporarily replace the imperial historian.

The rapid and vicious changes in the situation caught Lin Jue a little off guard. Because Lin Jue really didn't come up with a way to save the two adults. Although he went to the palace to see Guo Chong every day in the past two days, hoping to persuade Guo Chong to forgive Yan Fang and the others, Guo Chong's performance became more and more impatient.

Guo Chong even said to Lin Jue: "Lin Aiqing, you have done your best about this matter, so don't get involved in this matter anymore." I don't want you to be impeached by someone else for this. I know that you have feelings and righteousness, but in such a big matter, I want you to understand that this is not something that can be controlled by private feelings, and if you are controlled by private emotions, then I will be very disappointed. ”

This has already been said obviously, if you meddle in this matter again, I will not be polite to you, I am giving you face, you don't want to be embarrassed.

Lin Jue understood the meaning of these words, and he couldn't go to ask Guo Chong anymore. Lin Jue decided to give Green Dance's advice that night and go for a walk in Concubine Rong's path. Although Lin Jue felt that this road would not work nine times out of ten, when it came to such a time, he always had to give it a try.

In the afternoon of the fourteenth day of the lunar month, Lin Jue decided to enter the palace with Green Dance. In order to hide people's eyes, Lin Jue and the little county lord took their son Lin Zhan to enter the palace to meet the queen mother and give the queen mother to see her grandson into the palace, and the queen mother had issued such an invitation not long ago. And Green Dance followed into the palace in the name of the little county lord's entourage.

After entering the palace, the little county lord took Lin Zhan to meet the Queen Mother, and Lin Jue and Lu Wu went to Rongxiu Palace to meet Concubine Rong. Concubine Rong, who was taking a nap, was overjoyed to learn that Green Dance was coming to see her. Hurriedly got up and came to the warm pavilion to see the green dance.

"Green Dance, you can be counted as coming, my mother sent someone to call you into the palace many times, but you didn't come. But are you angry with your mother? Concubine Rong stepped forward excitedly to pull Lu Wu's hand. He also claimed to be a mother.

Green Dance skillfully avoided Concubine Rong's physical contact by saluting, and said softly: "Green Dance has seen Concubine Rong's mother." ”

Concubine Rong sighed in disappointment and said, "You still don't even want to shout a word from your mother." Why do you treat me like this? Mother really misses you. Are you angry at the hurry of the mother in Jiangning Mansion and say goodbye? Mother can't do it, someone is eyeing Mother, Mother doesn't want them to know Mother's whereabouts, find out the relationship between you and me, Mother is also to protect you. ”

Lu Wu frowned and said, "Concubine Rong is just for self-preservation, what does it have to do with me?" ”

Concubine Rong frowned and said, "Look, I'm really angry." Mother apologizes to you, is it my fault? I shouldn't have left you in Jiangning. Is my mother wrong? ”

Green Dance didn't speak, Lin Jue smiled beside him: "Concubine Rong, since Green Dance came to see you, she was discouraged." Otherwise, how could I come to see you? ”

Concubine Rong was stunned for a moment, then nodded with a smile and said, "Yes, my son has already forgiven me." Come, sit down and talk. Is it still warm in the house? Do you want to order someone to add a brazier? ”

Concubine Rong greeted the two of them to sit down, there was no need to add a brazier or something, there were already three pots in the corner of the small warm pavilion, and if you add more braziers, I am afraid that you will be poisoned.

Concubine Rong's phoenix eyes only stared at Lu Wu, and she suddenly frowned and said, "Hey, why does my son seem to have lost a lot of weight?" How? Sick? ”

Green Dance frowned and didn't answer, Lin Jue said softly: "Concubine Rong, Green Dance didn't just lose weight, she almost lost her life." ”

Concubine Rong's eyes widened in astonishment and exclaimed, "What? What's going on? Tell me quickly. ”

Lin Jue immediately recounted in detail the incident of Lu Wu and Lin Hu being kidnapped by King Huai on the way back to Beijing. Concubine Rong was stunned, and sat there in a daze.

"Concubine Rong, according to my analysis, the relationship between Niangniang and Green Dance has aroused their suspicions, and their motive for kidnapping Green Dance is to ask about the matter between Green Dance and Niangniang. Midori Wu gritted her teeth and didn't reveal half a word. They detained Green Dance in the palace for nearly a month, and under the torment of that month, could Green Dance not lose weight? It's a blessing to come back alive. Lin Jue said in a deep voice.

Concubine Rong walked from the soft couch to Lu Wu's side, and shouted with red eyes: "My son, how did they torture you?" You're not hurt, are you? ”

Green Dance shook her head slowly, but did not speak. Concubine Rong gritted her silver teeth and said angrily: "Guo Xu, this bastard, is too bold, it is really hateful to do such a thing." Hongu will definitely not spare him. ”

Lin Jue said in a deep voice: "Niangniang is angry, Green Dance is fine, Guo Xu didn't dare to do anything to Green Dance." But if I don't rescue in time, I don't know what will happen. Guo Xu wants to dig out the relationship between Green Dance and Niangniang, so that he can dig out the past together, so as to achieve the goal of hitting Niangniang and the Queen Mother. Its fundamental purpose is to compete for the position of the crown prince. The Queen Mother and Niangniang are both on the side of King Jin, and he must be worried that the Queen Mother will influence the emperor's attitude on the matter of establishing the prince, so he dug deep into this matter. Niangniang is not cautious, in the past few years, you and Green Dance have met too often, and your behavior is too intimate, even fools can see that there is something wrong, which is why they went to the south to keep an eye on Niangniang and Green Dance. The reason why Green Dance didn't come to the palace to see you during this time is because I'm worried that they will still be staring at this matter. So don't dare to act rashly. ”

Concubine Rong nodded and said, "You did the right thing, you did the right thing." They really can't be caught. By the way, how did you rescue Midori Dance? Guo Xu did such a thing, is he willing to let him go? ”

Lin Jue said calmly: "It's very simple, I tied up Lu Tianci and forced them to release Green Dance." ”

"Huh?" Concubine Rong was stunned again and said dumbfounded: "You...... You...... actually tied up Lu Tianci? You did the kidnapping of Lu Tianci, who made a fuss a few days ago? ”

Lin Jue nodded and said: "Exactly, if they refuse to release people, I can only force them to release people, and I can only make this decision." They also know that I did it, but there is no evidence. I'm a thorn in their side right now. But it's nothing, in order to protect Green Dance, not only Lu Tianci, but also Guo Xu himself, I won't care. If necessary, I will lead someone to break into his prince's mansion and rob people, this matter is within my plan. Fortunately, Lu Tianci took the bait, and the trouble was turned upside down. ”

Green Wu's eyes trembled, and he looked at Lin Jue with an extremely adoring and grateful look. She knew that what Childe said was not a lie. Childe would really do this for himself. Lu Tianci dared to kidnap him, which already explains everything.

Concubine Rong looked at Lin Jue blankly, she was a bold woman, but she only found out now that there were people who were bolder than herself. Guo Xu is like this, this Lin Jue is also bold, and he dares to do such a desperate crazy thing.

Concubine Rong bit her red lip and nodded slightly, calmed down and said in a deep voice: "Lin Jue, the green dance is by your side, and the palace can rest assured." Hongu thank you for everything you have done for Midori Mai. This palace doesn't know anything about this, and this palace is indeed a little careless. According to what you say, Guo Xu and Lu Zhongtian already suspect my relationship with Lu Wu, they must be investigating this matter behind their backs, and the paper can't contain the fire, I'm worried that they will find out about this matter sooner or later. ”
