It's now May, and the weather is starting to get hot in the northwest. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Zhu Youzhen, who was stuck in the prison car, was already sweating profusely at this time, but with his hands handcuffed, he couldn't wipe the sweat beads on his forehead at all, so he could only let the salty sweat beads slip into his eyes.

Zhu Youzhen's eyes suddenly felt very sour, so he had to squint, and the beads of sweat dripped into the wounds left by his previous battles, which made him feel even more painful.

Fortunately, he knew that he would not live for more than three days, so he didn't complain about anything, thinking that there was only one or two days left to live, so why should he care about the pain at this time.

Li Mingrui is still sitting in the carriage and reading the best-selling "Words of the Golden Bottle".

As a dignified cabinet scholar, he already had ice cubes in the carriage, so it was still as cool as early spring.

As he gets older, Li Mingrui even wears a thin blanket, but there is a red watermelon in the fruit bowl.

"How can His Royal Highness the King of Faith react, can he scold the current saint, can he complain?"

Li Mingrui asked his entourage Jinyi Wei Qianhu Lai Yu at this time, and a series of reactions to Zhu Youzhen, the king of letters, really disappointed him, a conspirator, he thought that Zhu Youzhen would directly rebel with Zu Dale on the way to the west, but he didn't expect that Zhu Youzhen not only did not rebel, but also fought with Zu Dale to the Acropolis at the expense of nearly nine-tenths of his strength.

This forced him to ask for an order to go to the northwest to personally deal with the matter of Zhu Youzhen, the king of letters.

And just when he prepared a cup of poisoned wine for Zhu Youzhen to force him to hold him hostage in public or make other rebellious acts, and even directly insulted His Majesty so that he could directly execute him on the spot, he didn't expect that His Royal Highness King Xin would really give his life for the three thousand soldiers of the Western Expeditionary Army who had nothing to do with him, and resolutely drank the poisoned wine he prepared.

For this reason, Li Mingrui had no choice but to continue to change his strategy, and immediately arrested Zhu Youzhen on the spot in accordance with the next arrangements agreed between himself and His Majesty Zhu Youxiao.

If Zhu Youzhen resists, even if Zhu Youzhen takes poisoned wine, he will be shot on the spot!

In addition, even if Zhu Youzhen did not resist, if there was any change in the Western Expeditionary Army, especially if Zu Dale prevented the people of the imperial court from arresting Zhu Youxiao, then Zhu Youxiao would still die, and even none of the surviving officers and soldiers of the Western Expeditionary Army would be able to live.

However, Zhu Youzhen did not resist because he suddenly wanted to arrest him, and even Zu Dale, who led the Western Expeditionary Army, stopped the movement of his subordinates, and took an indifferent attitude towards his arrest of Zhu Youzhen, the king of letters.

In this way, he forced himself to take out the secret decree that His Majesty had prepared a long time ago, and promoted the official of this ancestor Dale on the spot, although it was also a bright promotion and a secret descent, and it would also directly win the hearts of these officers and soldiers of the Western Expedition, but it was not the result that Li Mingrui wanted.

And now he let King Xinwang Zhu Youzhen stay in the prison car and suffer all kinds of torture, but as a result, His Royal Highness King Xin still did not scold himself because he was about to die, not even His Majesty.

Li Mingrui was a little irritable, and couldn't help but order: "Observe for two more days!" If Zhu Youzhen, the king of this letter, is a little dissatisfied, come and inform me immediately! ”

……

Today is the third day after Zhu Youzhen took poisoned wine, and Li Mingrui can't quietly watch the golden plum bottle in the carriage and eat chilled watermelon!

After learning that Zhu Youzhen, the king of letters, was still silent and silently endured the humiliation and abuse he let Jinyiwei give him, Li Mingrui finally couldn't help sighing: "It seems that Your Majesty still guessed the ending, and no matter what, His Royal Highness the King of Faith should not be killed!" ”

As he spoke, Li Mingrui directly ordered the carriage to stop, and then ran towards the prisoner cart in person.

Here, the captain of Yijinyi was insulting Zhu Youzhen according to Li Mingrui's instructions, and even beat him with a whip from time to time.

Li Mingrui pretended to be hypocritical and shouted: "It's really presumptuous! Whoever asks you to treat His Royal Highness King Xin like this, he will definitely join you in front of His Majesty! ”

Seeing that Li Ge Lao came to stop him in person, it was not easy to dismantle Li Mingrui, so he had to apologize and retreat, and here, Li Mingrui personally ordered someone to open the prisoner car, and personally helped Zhu Youzhen back to his carriage.

Zhu Youzhen was a little stunned by Li Mingrui's sudden move, and couldn't help asking: "What is Elder Li Ge doing, how can he come to Elder Ge's carriage because he is already guilty." ”

"King Xin, what is this saying, before today, it was His Majesty's special permission for the lower officials to treat you like this, if you dare to do this to you today, this is the crime of the lower officials", as he said, Li Mingrui personally brought Xinghuachun's wine to pour a full cup for this Zhu Youzhen: "Your Royal Highness the King of Letters, please use it, it has just been chilled, it is very relieving the heat!" ”

Zhu Youzhen couldn't help but laugh when he saw this: "Okay, anyway, I've already drunk a cup of poisonous wine, why be afraid of another glass, here, thank you Li Ge for your hospitality!" ”

After speaking, Zhu Youzhen did not hesitate to put the poisonous wine into his mouth.

At this time, Li Mingrui also laughed: "Your Royal Highness King Xin, please forgive the crime of deceiving the lower officials, this wine has not been poisonous from the beginning, if it is really three days to die, is it possible that His Royal Highness the King of Xin really thinks that he can still sit in front of the lower officials and drink so well today, and his mind is so sober." ”

Zhu Youzhen couldn't help but feel surprised, and the whole person suddenly fell into a state of confusion, he didn't expect that the elder Li Ge in front of him would suddenly say such a thing.

He even suspected that this Li Mingrui was deliberately joking, but in his opinion, this joke was not funny at all.

"If His Royal Highness King Xin doesn't drink this wine in the future, even if His Royal Highness doesn't want His Highness to die, His Majesty will have to let you die, but even if you drink this wine, you can endure the insults of the people below, in fact, the sincerity of the lower officials is to make the lower officials admire, not that the lower officials will not let you die, but Your Majesty has already said that if His Royal Highness King Xin can persist to this step, he will not be able to take his life again, and he should be forgiven for his guilt and brought back to the capital immediately!"

Li Mingrui couldn't help arching his hand in the northeast direction as he spoke: "Your Majesty is really wise, and he is like a god!" ”

Zhu Youzhen, who gradually came back to his senses, also stood up slowly, and suddenly knelt down again, slammed his head on the floor, and the whole person couldn't help choking, and finally couldn't help crying.

This made Li Mingrui unexpected, His Royal Highness did not show such excitement in the face of death, and now it is really surprising that he is so sad after learning that he will not die.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for not killing!"

Zhu Youzhen did not call himself a subordinate brother anymore, but directly kowtowed to Li Mingrui, who represented the Son of Heaven, with the courtesy of a monarch and a minister.

Li Mingrui hurriedly helped Zhu Youzhen up, and at the same time persuaded a few words, but he was a little disappointed in his heart, he didn't know if His Royal Highness King Xin was really so pure or too good at acting, and he escaped his temptation again and again.
