Chapter 53. The tragedy of Hou Guoxing
Feeling that the eyes around her were looking at her, Zhu Huiyan's face rose a layer of redness, a pair of big eyes full of agility blinked, and she took a deep breath to hide her panicked mood. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info slowly walked in the direction of the platform.
The surrounding scholars only felt that their internal organs were about to be shattered, and in their dreams, people actually walked towards this traitor who made the world despised. What exactly is the relationship between them? Why did the fifth princess come forward at this time? What did he say to this immortal-like person?
Jealousy and madness filled the hearts of this group of national elites, they didn't want to believe that there was anything between these two, but the evil heart made them imagine that they must have something.
Soon the group of scholars began to whisper, nothing more than discussing with each other whether the fifth princess would have any personal affairs with this traitor, or sighing that a flower was inserted in cow dung. Of course, you will immediately win the group attack of the surrounding scholars.
Then the scholar began to apologize, and then the evil speculation appeared in the scholar, and then he was attacked by the crowd around him. Anyway, they can't believe that their dream lover will have anything to do with this traitor. Of course, deep down in my heart, there were bursts of heartbroken voices.
"Hou Guoxing, I asked you not to set foot in the palace that day, but you angrily refused. He also said that he would definitely assist the royal brother and become a generation of Ming monarchs, why do you want to do such things for women and children today! Zhu Huiyan took Binglan and slowly walked towards Hou Guoxing, slightly opened her red lips, and said softly.
The five princesses were so smart that they knew that they had said the wrong thing, so they pretended not to know that they were speechless, and then said what they said that day. Tell the world that getting along with Hou Guoxing is also for the sake of the country's righteousness.
As soon as Zhu Huiyan's words fell, it was like lighting a candle in the darkness in the group of scholars, allowing the broken hearts of this group of scholars to find their direction. For a long time, the sound of gassing came and went. The scholars finally let go of their hearts.
There are also many scholars, loudly praising the five princesses for not letting them shave their eyebrows, and they can also focus on the country's name as a woman. reprimanded the traitorous minister Hou Guoxing. Soon, more and more praises came out of the scholars' groups.
Hou Guoxing, who was holding the embroidered spring knife, looked blankly at this woman dressed in blue, like a fairy, walking over, he really didn't expect that at this time, this beautiful woman would come forward to save him. For a while, the hand holding the embroidered spring knife began to tremble slightly because of the surging blood in his heart.
Before Hou Guoxing could speak, Zhu Huiyan, who walked to the bottom of the steps, bowed to his imperial brother Zhu Youxiao and hundreds of officials, and then frowned and reprimanded Hou Guoxing:
"Your death has fulfilled your own name, so isn't it injustice to the scholars and civil and military officials all over the world?"
Zhu Huiyan's voice fell, and the scholars also began to talk about it, these words came out of the mouth of this fairy-like person, they felt that it was very reasonable, didn't such a death prove that they and others forced this traitor to death? But soon they reacted, this traitor must die today, otherwise the face of the world's soldiers will be put anywhere.
Soon a handsome, well-dressed scholar came out of the group of scholars, came to Zhu Huiyan, according to what Hou Guoxing had always wanted to learn, but he couldn't learn anything, after saluting Zhu Huiyan with a fan in the way of the merry boy of the Ming Dynasty, he slowly said:
"Princess, the so-called seeking benevolence and benevolence, what Brother Hou does, is indeed despised by the world, but Brother Hou is now awake and willing to die, as the so-called death is like a lamp going out, what Brother Hou does, will also go with his death, with the wind, twenty years later, he will still be a good man......"
Looking at the little white face in front of him quoting scriptures to Zhu Huiyan and pretending to be a graceful and suave appearance, Hou Guoxing felt annoyed in his heart, and interrupted:
"This brother, I didn't admit that I was a traitor! The reason why I committed suicide was because all the soldiers in the world said that I was a traitor, and I chose to die in desperation. ā
The scholar who was originally quoting scriptures and buying literary talents, choked on Hou Guoxing's words, and it was not good to get angry in front of him, thought for a moment, opened the folding fan with a snap, shook it a few times, and said in this opening:
At that time, Dr. Qu Yuan threw himself into the river, and he died to show his will, and Prime Minister Wen Cheng entered the enemy's prison, sacrificing his life to die, but the innocence he wanted to stay in the world. Brother Hou is here, but he can also prove his innocence, and it will be a good story in the future.
Hou Guoxing listened to a burst of scolding in his heart, thinking to himself why don't you sister die, and then ask for innocence in the world? I want to show off in front of my sister, and I don't have any real skills.
Just as she was about to open her mouth to refute, Binglan next to the fifth princess had already spoken softly:
"Doctor Qu and Prime Minister Wen are both loyal ministers through the ages, according to you, Hou Gongzi is also a loyal minister?"
After speaking, he ignored the embarrassed scholar, turned to look at the steps, and Hou Guoxing, who was high-spirited but begged to stay innocent in the world, said:
"Hou Gongzi, come down quickly, what should I do if you die, Mrs. Ke, and ......" This Binglan wanted to say what to do with herself, but before the words came out, she stopped alive. And muttered to himself:
"Anyway, the princess and I both believe that you are definitely not a traitor."
As soon as these words came out, the surrounding scholars looked over. At first glance, there were exclamations, these five princesses were already stunning in the world, but I didn't expect a little palace maid around me to look so beautiful and refined, although they were not as good as the five princesses who were all over the country and the city, but after a year or two, she was definitely a female goblin who was fascinated by death!
The most important thing is to look at this trend, not only the fifth princess is facing Hou Guoxing, a traitor, but also this charming little palace maid, who is obviously full of tenderness to Hou Guoxing!
For a while, the scholars who were still moved by Hou Guoxing's generosity and narrow-mindedness just now stepped forward one after another, and they criticized Hou Guoxing again. It's nothing more than nonsense like what you do right and sit straight.
After Hou Guoxing fought back a few words, he opened his mouth for a while, just looking at Zhu Huiyan who was frowning and Binglan who was affectionate, and he was speechless in his heart. FeelingsJust now, the scholars were still dealing with themselves for the so-called righteousness of the famous clan, but now they are instinctively jealous.
Ay! Deplorable male species. But Hou Guoxing felt very cool, he just liked to look at the sad and angry appearance of the scholars who couldn't get used to me and couldn't eat me.
Seeing the scholars coming over to attack Hou Guoxing one after another, because of Zhu Huiyan's arrival, the people who slowly quieted down behind them were not to be outdone, and the two sides began to scold each other again.
For a while, the scene began to stalemate again, and the forbidden soldiers were also nervous and raised their weapons.
Looking at the crowd that was about to get out of control, Zhu Huiyan didn't care about etiquette, in the exclamations of the emperor and hundreds of officials, in Hou Guoxing's embroidered spring knife, hurriedly retreated, walked quickly to Hou Guoxing's side, picked up the mallet, and knocked the Dengwen drum a few times.
Feeling the blue gauze of the girl next to him gently brushing his cheeks with the breeze, Hou Guoxing only felt a burst of embarrassment, just now he thought that this Zhu Huiyan came over desperately, in order to snatch the embroidered spring knife in his hand, and he pretended not to come over. But there was chaos just now, and I guess no one paid attention.
Although embarrassed, Hou Guoxing was also proud, no matter what, this girl was also for herself, standing in front of the world.
After the scholars calmed down, Zhu Huiyan took a breath lightly and scolded Hou Guoxing angrily:
"Hou Guoxing, if you want to die, don't commit suicide next to this Dengwen drum, when my Emperor Taizu set up the Dengwen drum, it was to give the world a place to shout grievances, not to give you a shameless villain, to sell your reputation and reputation......"
"Well said! is worthy of being Lord Wanli's favorite granddaughter! Worthy of being the princess of my royal family! ā
A majestic voice came!
At this time, I saw the eunuchs setting up honor guards, cleaning the road in front of them, and Zheng Guifei, with the support of the eunuchs, slowly walked towards Zhu Youxiao.
How could it be her? Most of the officials and scholars around frowned, and Fang Congzhe, Guan Yingzhen and the others also looked at each other, not understanding why Zheng Guifei suddenly appeared here.
After everyone had performed the etiquette, Zheng Guifei looked at the hundred officials, and for a while, everyone's hearts were beating.
This Zheng Guifei, as Emperor Wanli's favorite favorite concubine when he was alive, said everything in the harem at the beginning, and she was also very influential in this court. Now although Wanli and the second emperor of Taichang have died, the time is only two months, and the residual power is still there.
Before the hundred officials could react, Concubine Zheng Guifei looked at Hou Guoxing on the stage again, and reprimanded angrily:
"Hou Guoxing, if you want to die, roll aside to the palace and commit suicide, don't dirty the Dengwen drum left by Emperor Taizu."
Hou Guoxing was speechless for a while, thinking to himself that you always ordered me to put down the knife directly, why do you want me to commit suicide to the side, how can I be good.
Just when Hou Guoxing was embarrassed for a while, thinking about how to put down the embroidered spring knife, he saw Zhu Youxiao over there, and kept signaling the cavalry team next to Hou Guoxing with his eyes from thousands of households. And Zhang Mao was also quietly approaching his side.
But at this time, everyone's eyes were focused on Concubine Zheng and herself, and of course on the group of shameless scholars, whose obscene eyes were focused on Zhu Huiyan.
Hou Guoxing, who wanted to have a play, immediately put on a sad and indignant appearance, and said loudly to Concubine Zheng:
"Concubine Niangniang, I, Hou Guoxing, think that I am not a traitor, but if I am a sergeant today, and the Qing gossip officials of the Manchu Dynasty, they all say that my Hou Guoxing is a traitor. I, Hou Guoxing, had no choice but to die.
After speaking, he put on a heartbroken and drunken appearance, moved a few steps crookedly in the direction of Zhang Mao, and said:
"Now, I, Hou Guoxing, am willing to learn from the prime minister of Nawen to die with his will, but I want to keep my innocence in the world. Please ask Emperor Taizu to testify for me. ā
After speaking, he waved the embroidered spring knife vigorously, and put on the most handsome posture in front of Zhu Huiyan that he thought he was wiping his neck. At this time shouted:
"Emperor Taizu is a witness, and my Hou Guoxing is loyal to the Ming Dynasty."
After speaking, he wiped it towards his neck. However, the knife was far away from the neck.
Just when the hundreds of officials below were screaming in amazement, and when Zhu Youxiao roared loudly, Zhu Huiyan covered her mouth and retreated, and when her face was full of sadness, Binglan screamed, fainted, and the officials looked at each other full of doubts.
Suddenly, a figure rushed onto the stage, grabbed Hou Guoxing's right hand with a knife, and then turned his wrist over with a small grab, and Hou Guoxing's embroidered spring knife fell in pain. Followed by another big grab, Hou Guoxing's left hand was moved behind him and firmly fixed.
"Click! Click! Click! ā
The action was between the lightning and flint, and Hou Guoxing could clearly see the expressions on the faces of the people around him, and hear the crisp bone friction sound. Soon a sharp pain in his left arm came.
I'll wipe your sister's Zhang Mao, I don't want to die! Do you want to put down this heavy hand and directly unload Lao Tzu's arm.
Hou Guoxing, who was screaming wildly in his heart, gritted his teeth in front of the beautiful Zhu Huiyan, sweating profusely. However, the power of beauties is infinite, and Hou Guoxing didn't scream.
