Liu Xiu pondered for a while, and then said slowly, "I will consider it as appropriate." ”

"Your Majesty......" "Okay, I've already said it, I'll consider it as appropriate!"

Liu Xiu deliberately showed an impatient expression, and everyone present looked at each other, if he continued to intercede for Liu She, he would be suspected of forcing the palace.

In the end, it was the old man who bowed to Liu Xiu, and then retreated to his seat, and the rest of the clan relatives also returned to their respective positions when they saw this.

Liu Xiu yawned and said, "I'm tired, if you have nothing else to do, let's go back first!" ”

Everyone got up one after another, saluted Liu Xiu, and said in unison: "Your Majesty, the ministers are leaving!" ”

Seeing Liu Xiu nodding, everyone withdrew from the hall one after another.

When they got outside, the people were frowning, and one of them said, "It seems that Your Majesty doesn't plan to let the king of Surabaya go easily, how can this be good?" ”

The king of Surabaya only occupied a hundred acres of land, and many of them took far more than a hundred acres of land.

The footsteps of the king of Surabaya are all light.

People have a word, I say a word, and there are many discussions, discussing how to rescue Liu She.

Liu Shun glanced around everyone, and finally his eyes fell on Liu Jia.

He asked, "Is there a good way to filial piety?" ”

Among the Liu clansmen, Liu Jia is considered a resourceful person, and he has a close relationship with Liu Xiu.

Liu Jia defected to Liu Xiu after Deng Yu captured Chang'an, and later he went to Luoyang and was named a thousand times Taishou by Liu Xiu.

But not long after Liu Jia did too much, his health became worse and worse, so he asked Liu Xiu to resign.

Liu Xiu also understood Liu Jia and summoned him back to Luoyang to let him recuperate in Luoyang.

Liu Xiu quelled Deng Feng's rebellion and recovered Nanyang, and the Liu clan returned to Nanyang one after another, and Liu Jia also joined them.

It's just that Liu Jia didn't bully others, nor did he take advantage of it, and among the Liu clansmen, the land he bought was small.

Seeing that Liu Shun asked about his head, and there was a tendency to push himself to make a head bird, Liu Jia coughed a few times, waved his hand and said: "During this time, I have been recuperating at home, not participating in court politics, and I am also estranged from Your Majesty.

In my opinion, you can ask Zhao Xi Zhao to recruit on this matter. ”

Hearing Liu Jia's suggestion, the eyes of many of the clan relatives present lit up.

Many of them fled to Luoyang after the Red Mei Army captured Chang'an and defected to Liu Xiu.

On the way to escape, they were miserable, their clothes were torn, their shoes were off, and they had no food, no drink, and no money.

On the way, I happened to meet Zhao Xi, who fled to Nanyang.

Zhao Xi was very righteous, and when he saw that the fleeing Liu clan relatives were all embarrassed, with yellow faces and thin muscles, he distributed all the luggage he carried with him, including life-saving food, money, clothes, shoes and other things.

It was precisely because of Zhao Xi's relief that these Liu clan relatives could be regarded as picking up a life and fled to Luoyang without danger.

They have always been grateful to Zhao Xi, and Zhao Xi has always been clever and strategic, maybe he can really help them come up with a clever plan.

At Liu Jia's prompting, everyone went to Zhao Xi's house together.

Zhao Xi and Deng Feng are close friends, after Deng Feng was killed, Zhao Xi was implicated, fortunately, Liu Xiu is not a tyrant who kills innocents indiscriminately, after the investigation made it clear that there was no collusion between Zhao Xi and Deng Feng, Zhao Xi was not punished, and he was appointed as a bus to be recruited, that is, a reserve cadre of the state.

Although he was a waiting bus, no one recommended Zhao Xi, and Zhao Xi could only stay at home and have nothing to do all day long.

Today, the sudden visit to so many Liu clan relatives surprised Zhao Xi, at least on the surface.

Zhao Xi personally greeted him out of the house, bowed to the ground to everyone, and said with surprise and joy: "The princes can come to the cold house, which really makes the cold house shine, hurry up, please face all kilometers, please inside!" ”

"Zhao is too polite!"

"Zhao is waiting to be recruited!"

The crowd greeted each other and walked through the door.

In the lobby, everyone sat down one after another, raised their eyes and glanced around, although Zhao Xi's home is not very down, but it is far from how rich it is.

When Liu Xuan was the emperor, Zhao Xi was in the ascendant, and was made a marquis, and was worshiped as a Zhonglang general.

Everyone first politely greeted each other, and then, Liu Shun cut to the point, and told Zhao Xi in detail about their intention this time, and finally, he couldn't help but sigh and said: "The king of Surabaya is old, he should be in retirement, but now he is in prison, I don't know if Zhao has a way to save him?" ”

After listening to Liu Shun's narration, Zhao Xi blinked his eyes and muttered: "It turns out that the princes are here for the matter of the king of Surabaya. ”

Seeing that he didn't show a very surprised and embarrassed look, Liu Zhong's heart suddenly moved, got up and left the table, knelt down to Zhao Xi, and said: "If Zhao Beizhao can rescue his father, Zhao Beizhao's kindness will never be forgotten!" ”

Zhao Xi was startled, hurriedly got up, knelt down in front of Liu Zhong, and said, "The king of Zichuan has tormented the grass people!" ”

The buses to be recruited are reserve cadres, not formal cadres, and their identities are not much different from ordinary people.

Liu Shun said: "If Zhao has a good plan, please help my father!" ”

Zhao Xi sighed and said, "Even if the grass people want to help, they can't do anything!" ”

"Why?"

"The grass people want to see the Son of Heaven, I'm afraid it will be as difficult as climbing to the sky!"

Waiting to be entertained, waiting to be summoned.

If the Son of Heaven is not summoned, then you will never see the Son of Heaven for the rest of your life.

Liu Zhong was stunned and said, "As long as Zhao Beizhao can save his father, I can take you to meet the Son of Heaven!" ”

Zhao Xi's eyes flashed, and he said: "As long as the grass people can see the Son of Heaven, they will definitely be able to rescue the King of Surabaya!" ”

Upon hearing this, everyone present was stunned, and then asked in surprise and joy: "What is Zhao Beizhao's good strategy?"

Tell me about it! ”

Zhao Xi smiled slightly, and said confidently: "Not only can I get Your Majesty to release the King of Surabaya, but I can also make the person who sues the King of Surabaya die without a place to be buried!" ”

For a while, the room was silent, people looked at each other, and suddenly felt that their trip was in vain.

He said that he could rescue the king of Surabaya, which may still be possible, but it is unbelievable that he can let the king who sued the king of Surabaya die.

In the eyes of everyone, this is simply impossible.

Today, he is not a faint king like Wang Mang, let alone a foolish worm like Liu Xuan, who loves the people like a son today, is benevolent and diligent in government, how can he kill innocents indiscriminately?

Zhao Xi looked around at everyone present, stretched out his slap, shook it at everyone, and said: "If you don't believe me, we can make a bet, within five days, Your Majesty will release the king of Surabaya and order Wang Ben to be beheaded!" ”

When Liu finally heard this, his face turned red, his eyes were shining, and the whole person seemed to be alive.

Liu Shun burst out laughing, patted his chest, and said: "If Zhao Beizhao can become a prophecy, I, Nanyang Taishou, can let Zhao Beizhao do it!" ”

Zhao Xi said confidently: "If the grass people fail to do what they say, they can raise their heads and apologize to the public!" ”

Liu Zhong slapped his thigh, stood up violently, grabbed Zhao Xi's wrist, and said, "Go!" Let's go and meet the Son of Heaven now! ”

Although Liu Xi was not sent to prison, but was only placed under house arrest by Liu Xiu's side, this was enough for Liu Zhong, a filial son, to rub his intestines.

"Ah Finale!"

Liu Shun still wants to stop him, at least you ask clearly, what can Zhao Xi do, recklessly lead him to the Son of Heaven, if he can't say anything, then how can it be?

Liu finally didn't look back, pulled Zhao Xi out of the mansion, and went straight to Xingyuan.

After the clansmen left, Liu Xiu finally got a chance to rest, but his butt didn't get hot, Xu Ying walked in from outside, bowed his hand, and said, "Your Majesty, the king of Zichuan brought Zhao Xi to ask to see!" ”

Zhao Xi?

Why did Liu Zhong bring Zhao Xi over?

Liu Xiu raised her eyebrows and looked at Xu Ying.

The latter bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, the King of Zichuan said that there is something important to report to Your Majesty!" ”

Liu Xiu shook his head helplessly and said, "Let the two of him come in!" ”

Don't ask, Liu Zhong is coming to see him now, it must be for Liu She's business.

Liu Xiu felt that he had said enough, and if Liu Zhong still couldn't understand the truth, he couldn't help it.

It didn't take long for Liu Zhong, who went and returned, to take Zhao Xi into the main hall.

After coming in, Liu finally bowed his hand, Zhao Xi knelt on the ground and kowtowed, Shi Dali bowed, and said: "Zhao Xi to recruit the bus, meet Your Majesty!" ”

Liu Xiu waved his hand and said, "Give me a seat." ”

Xuying walked over with two cushions and put them aside.

Liu Zhong and Zhao Xi both bowed down to thank them, and then knelt down on the cushion.

Liu Xiu looked at Liu Zhong and asked angrily and funny: "Ah Zhong is still here for the matter of King Surabaya!" ”

"Exactly!"

Liu Zhong didn't go around the bend either, and nodded heavily.

Zhao Xi bowed and said, "Your Majesty, the grass people have something to report!" ”

Liu Xiu looked at Zhao Xi and said indifferently: "Speak." ”

"Your Majesty's punishment of the king of Surabaya is suspected of indulging villains and harming loyalty!"

Zhao Xi's words made Liu Zhong's cold sweat suddenly break out, his eyes widened, and he looked at Zhao Xi in disbelief, he never thought that after seeing the Son of Heaven, Zhao Xi could suddenly come out with such a sentence.

Hearing this, Xuying, who was standing beside the door of the hall, frowned, and raised his drooping hand, holding the hilt of the sword.

Liu Xiu was stunned, and after a while, he couldn't help but burst out laughing, he looked at Zhao Xi and said, "Zhao Xi, you are so bold!" ”

"Your Majesty has praised it falsely, and the grass people dare not be ashamed!"

Liu Xiu almost laughed on her back, you really think I was praising you! He asked slowly, "You said that I connived at the villain and framed Zhongliang?" ”

Liu Zhong wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and glanced at Zhao Xilian, signaling him to shut up quickly and stop talking nonsense! If you continue to talk nonsense, your father will be killed by you! Zhao Xi didn't seem to see Liu Zhong's hint, and looked at Liu Xiu's scrutinizing gaze, and said, "At least Your Majesty has credulously believed the villain's words!" ”

Liu Xiu asked puzzledly, "Villain?

Are you talking about the villain referring to Wang Ben? ”

"Exactly!"

"Why do you say that Wang Ben is a villain?"

"The piece of land in the north of Ye County is not Wang Ben's, but Cai Yi's!"

"I know, however, Cai Yi has already moved out of Ye County, and before leaving, he sold that piece of land to Wang Ben."

Zhao Xi shook his head and said, "Your Majesty only knows one thing, but doesn't know the other.

Cai Yi did not sell the land, and Wang Ben did not buy the land, that piece of land was robbed by Wang Ben, as for Cai Yi's family, it had already been killed by Wang Ben! ”

Hearing this, everyone present was stunned and did not speak for a long time.

It's too unbelievable that there is such a thing, right?

Liu Xiu looked at Zhao Xi intently, frowned and asked, "You mean, Wang Ben killed Cai Yi's family and snatched the title deed?" ”

"And the Cai family's money was also looted by Wang Ben."

Liu Xiu said: "What you said, do you have a certificate?" ”

Zhao Xi Zhengse said: "The grass people have a very close personal relationship with a guest of Wang Ben, and Wang Ben's killing of Cai Yi is exactly what the guest said, and please let Your Majesty know what to see!" ”

As he spoke, he knelt down and bowed forward.
