Chapter 317: Deng Xi's Poison
Lu Di asked them to get up, and then he went into the inner room and changed into sackcloth and knelt in front of Gongsun Qiao's coffin to guard his filial piety. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The rain outside was very heavy, and Lu Di looked at Gongsun Qiao in the coffin, and he covered him with the Qi flag he had made temporarily, just like those who died for the country in later generations will be used as a quilt after death.
Gongsun Qiao's heirs and widows all beat their chests and kowtowed when they saw Lu Di doing this, and cried.
Lu Di didn't speak, he knelt down and took a pen knife and began to engrave Gongsun Qiao's life's work on the bronze plate word by word.
Shen Tujia came, he jumped in front of Gongsun Qiao's coffin step by step like a bird, and looked at the gray faces of his former classmates, he couldn't help but fall to the ground and cry.
Gongsun Qiao's heirs went to pull it, but they didn't pull it up, Lu Di put down the knife and pen and said, "Isn't Mr. a believer, how can there be tears?" ”
Shentu Jia said: "The Tao does not depend on faith, but on cultivation, and if I have not cultivated the Tao, I will naturally have tears." ”
Lu Di seemed to have an understanding when he heard this, and picked up the knife and pen to engrave the inscription more seriously.
Yes, the Tao is cultivated rather than believed, and this is perhaps the greatest thing about the Tao compared to other religions!
(The religions with the most followers begin by saying, believe in me for eternal life, believe in me and you will not go to hell, believe in me and you will be liberated, believe in me and you will be saved, believe in me...... There are too many people who believe in me, but if they don't believe in you, people won't get that? )
It's disgusting!
Outside, the rain was so heavy that it was dark.
Shen Tujia sighed and said, "The cleanest things in the world are always considered by the world to be not clean enough, so they wash them with rain, but they don't know that after being washed by the rain, the clean things will not only not become cleaner than before, but will become more muddy and filthy. ”
"Childe, leave Zheng Guo!" Shen Tujia suddenly leaked a longing gaze.
Hearing this, the knife and pen in Lu Di's hand froze, and he looked at the one-legged Shen Tujia, whose white hair at this time was particularly conspicuous in the dark sky.
"Don't worry, sir, Tu will go, but I must finish what I am doing before I go" After a long time, Lu Di said.
The dim oil lamps were burning, and the rain outside was getting lighter.
Uncle Tai's Mansion.
Uncle Tai's face was dazed and depressed, he couldn't tell why?
In today's debate, it is clear that his own side has won, and his political opponent Gongsun Qiao has also died, since then Zheng Guo has no one who threatens him, he should be happy, but why can't he be happy?
He arranged the pottery in a row in the distance, and then took a huge bouleball and threw it over, and the sound of the pottery being broken was so good!
If Lu Di was here at this time, he would definitely be stunned, it turned out that the origin of bowling balls was from China!
The wife of the "husband" uncle came over, and she put a robe on him, afraid that he would suffer from the wind and cold in this rainy weather.
When Uncle Tai saw his wife, he was in a better mood: "Why haven't you slept yet?" ”
Uncle Tai's wife said: "The husband has not fallen asleep, how can the wife sleep?" ”
Uncle Tai was very moved when he heard this, and he hugged his wife in his arms.
"Husband, are you saddened by the death of Dr. Gongsun?" After a while, my uncle and wife looked up and said.
Uncle Tai said: "Yes and no! ”
"Dr. Gongsun has kindness to me, and he has even more merit to Zheng Guo, so I am naturally saddened by his death."
"But sadness doesn't keep me from sleeping, after all, no matter who you are, there will be a day when you die."
"Oh, what about the husband?" Uncle and wife wondered when they heard this.
Uncle Tai sighed and said, "Mr. Deng Xi secretly told me after today's polemic conference that I would arrest Gongzi Tu and present it to Yangsheng, the son of Qi State. ”
"Huh?!" The uncle and wife cried out in surprise when they heard this.
"Husband, you won't agree, will you?" Uncle Tai's wife looked flustered.
Uncle Tai said: "No, I just said that I will think about it for one night and give him an answer tomorrow." ”
Uncle Tai's wife breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this, and then said angrily: "Husband, I heard that Deng Yi was not a good person at all, but now that I hear his words to you now, I am more and more sure that he is not only not a good person, but also a shameless man with full wolf ambition!" ”
Uncle Tai was shocked when he heard his wife's words: "What do you mean by this?" ”
Uncle Tai's wife said: "Husband, you must have heard of Deng Xi's fact that he only came forward for the people who made money, right?" ”
Uncle Tai nodded: "This doesn't mean that Deng Yi is a bad person, it only shows that he is more greedy for money." ”
"Greedy for money? Husband, he Deng Xi is greedy for money, but he is even more lustful! ”
"You may not know that this Deng Xi was persecuted in order to get a young woman named Dan in the past, causing a villager to flee."
(Remember chapter 210, Lu Di was beaten by a young girl in the countryside for eighteen mo?) That girl is called Dan, that is, the later Zheng Dan, here the round round, snickering)
"What is the case?" Uncle Tai was taken aback.
Uncle Tai's wife nodded and continued: "It is also said that he has a concubine, that is, after he designed to persecute others, he stepped forward to save people, and finally married a girl in the praise of everyone. ”
"Husband, do you think Deng Xi is as terrifying as a poisonous snake?"
"Oh no, she's scarier than a viper"
"When people see it, they know it's a poisonous snake, so they kill it and avoid it."
"But what about Deng Xi, he has a poisonous snake heart, but he disguised himself as a kind savior, and people loved him and praised him"
"He's horrible!"
The uncle and wife were trembling with fear as they spoke.
Uncle gently helped her back to comfort her and give her a sense of security.
Sure enough, Uncle Tai's actions calmed his wife's mood, and she could only be heard to continue: "Husband, have you ever wondered why Deng Xi is in a hurry to kill Gongzi? ”
"Kill!? What do you mean, ma'am? Uncle Tai was puzzled again, Deng Xi just persuaded himself to tie up Gongzi Tu and send him back to Qi State, how could he ever kill him?
Uncle Tai's wife said: "My good husband, do you think about what the current political situation in Qi is like? ”
After being reminded by his wife, Uncle Tai suddenly realized: Gongzi Yangsheng's desperate efforts to conquer Chu were actually to establish his own prestige and to eliminate Lu Di's influence among the officers and soldiers of the three armies during the Battle of Chu that year.
These are not counted, and it has long been rumored that the reason why Gongzi Tu wandered in the vassal states was due to Yangsheng's persecution, so the question arises, if he returns Lu Di to Qi State, then Yangsheng will let Gongzi Tu live?
If you are assassinated by an assassin during your journey, killed by something, or accidentally die of illness, then all the blame will be piled on your head at that time.
In order to extinguish the anger of Qi State, Zheng Guo will definitely give himself to Qi State, and Yang Sheng of Qi State will also pretend to win people's hearts under the banner of avenging his younger brother and cannot spare himself.
At that time, the only person with Zheng Guo's reputation was Deng Xi, and after Yangsheng's dark box operation, he naturally replaced his position as Zhengqing and became Zheng Guo's biggest winner.
The more Uncle Tai thought about it, the more cold sweat broke out, and he hurriedly shouted: "Come on, call all the retainers quickly." ”
Seeing that her husband's face was in a hurry, Uncle Tai's wife frowned and said, "Husband is already in the middle of the night at this time, if there is something to do, it will be arranged tomorrow." ”
Uncle Tai hurriedly put on his shoes and said, "Madame doesn't know, my talisman was given to Deng Xi." ”
Uncle and wife screamed in shock when they heard this!
