Chapter 723: Make a vow

Xu Liang held Emperor Chongzhi with one hand, and shook the Cold Moon Knife with the other, his face was fierce, looking at the frame, there was a great way to take Emperor Chongzhen's knife. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Sun Chengzong frowned, although he guessed that Xu Liang was mostly pretending, but the emperor's safety could not be missed. Sun Chengzong and Xu Guangqi exchanged glances, Xu Guangqi coughed lightly twice, and said: "Ahem, Wen Ge Lao, just leave it to the old man and Sun Ge Lao here, Wen Ge Lao, you and Luo Dudu will go outside for the time being, and appease the soldiers to avoid losses." ”

Wen Tiren's face changed drastically, and he looked at Xu Guangqi and Sun Chengzong in surprise, although Xu Ge Lao did not say it explicitly, but letting Wen Tiren go out at this time was to compromise with Xu Liang in disguise.

"Old ...... Xu Ge?" Wen Tiren frowned, his face was ugly, and he stood there refusing to leave.

Elder Xu Ge slowly closed his eyes, and Elder Sun Ge threw a look at Luo Yangxing, the Governor of the Jinyi Guard, who nodded slightly, and said to Wen Tiren with a grin: "In that case, Elder Wen Ge, let's go outside and have a look." Those rabbit cubs are not fuel-efficient lamps, and if you don't see them with your own eyes, you're really afraid of making a mess. ”

Wen Ge's face was ugly, and he finally set his eyes on Emperor Chongzhen.

However, Emperor Chongzhen's face was pale by the sword light in Xu Liang's hand, where was he still in the mood to pay attention to Wen Tige's call for help.

Seeing that no one was willing to speak for him, Wen Tiren glared at Xu Liang viciously with cannibalistic eyes, flicked his sleeves, and walked out indignantly.

The annoying Wen Tiren left, and Xu Ge Lao said to Xu Liang: "Okay, Xu Liang, we can talk now, right?" ”

Xu Liang chuckled, nodded, hooked a brocade pier next to him with his foot, and sat down with a golden knife, still holding one arm of Emperor Chongzhen with one hand.

The emperor frowned: "Xu Liang, I didn't even sit!" ”

Xu Liang pursed his lips and glanced at Emperor Chongzhen, "I didn't tell you to stand!" Negotiations, of course, are only sincere when you sit and talk. ”

The emperor's face was indignant.

Seeing this, Wang Chengen, the priest who stayed in the Yangxin Palace, dared to hurriedly move over another **** pier, wiped it vigorously with his sleeve, and put it next to Emperor Chongzhen, "Your Majesty, you sit!" ”

The emperor looked at it, and then sat down reluctantly. Seeing this, Xu Guangqi and Sun Chengzong also found Jindun in the corner of the Yangxin Palace, and sat face to face with Xu Liang and Emperor Chongzhen.

A scuffle had just been experienced in the Heart Cultivation Palace, and the corpses of the dead guards and the blood stains on the ground had not yet been cleaned up, and a disgusting smell of blood emanated from the entire Heart Cultivation Palace. Negotiations between Xu Liang and the cabinet began in such an environment.

Elder Xu Ge preferred to speak, "Xu Liang, the reason for today's incident, the old man and Elder Sun Ge are already generally clear. Although it is said that the emperor and Wen Tiren designed to ambush you, which made you suffer a lot of fright, you also detained the emperor and put the emperor's daughter in danger...... But fortunately, neither side has caused great damage, according to the old man, this matter will end here, you don't hold a grudge, the emperor and the court will no longer embarrass you, how about it? ”

When Xu Liang heard this, he looked at Xu Ge Lao in surprise, shook his head and sneered: "Xu Ge Lao really doesn't have back pain when he stands and talks." This official entered the palace today, fortunately, he has a good habit of wearing treasure armor and carrying weapons, otherwise, at this time, he would have been the soul of Dongchang's sword! Now Xu Ge Lao is actually ashamed to say that there is no damage on both sides?! Didn't Elder Ge blush when he said this? ”

"Ahem!" Xu Liang reprimanded Xu Ge Lao so mercilessly, Xu Ge Lao was very embarrassed, looked at Emperor Chongzhen again, and frowned.

Seeing this, Sun Chengzong snorted lightly, stared straight at Xu Liang and asked: "Xu Liang, the old man has never liked to go around and around, today the emperor is in your hands, how can you let the emperor go, if you have any requirements, you can mention it!" As for whether he can agree, the old man and Xu Ge will discuss it again. ”

Xu Liang smiled, "Sun Ge is an old man, and the official still knows a lot." Xu Liang raised his head, with a frightened look on his face, and said slowly: "Originally, this official entered Beijing this time to explain to the emperor in person on some issues in Shaanxi Province, and by the way, he listened to the emperor'......s instructions to Shaanxi in person."

A room of people heard Xu Liang say this kind of thing, and they all looked at Xu Liang with disdain, as we all know, Xu Liang is used to lawlessness in Shaanxi, when did he put the emperor in his eyes? Listening to the emperor's instructions was just an excuse for him to enter Beijing.

The shameless eyes of everyone made Xu Liang's face slightly red, coughed lightly, and embarrassedly covered up the past, Xu Liang continued: "The official came to the palace with a fierce loyalty to the Ming Dynasty and the emperor, but he never expected that as soon as the official entered this noon gate, he was first searched by several guards, and tens of thousands of taels of silver tickets were looted, and then entered the Palace of Nourishing Hearts. Alas...... This official was able to survive until Xu Ge Lao and Sun Ge Lao brought people to come, it can be said that they have experienced nine deaths and a lifetime, and they have been hit by seven or eight arrows on their bodies alone, in addition to a few poison darts! I didn't feel anything during the fight, but now that I stopped, I just felt that my whole body hurt everywhere, and my internal organs seemed to be displaced, and it hurt my heart! In this catastrophe, most of my life has been lost......"

Xu Liang's eyebrows fluttered when he spoke, and when he was excited, he casually pulled Emperor Chongzhen who was sitting next to him over, and slapped the emperor on the shoulder! The emperor bared his teeth and grinned. Xu Ge Lao and the others looked at Xu Liang with wide eyes.

Xu Liang said that all the hardships he had experienced in just half a day were added to the oil and vinegar, and he was verbose, and every time he said a few words, he inevitably patted Emperor Chongzhen's shoulder fiercely, and Wang Chengen was distressed when he saw Si Li Bingbi.

In the end, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't stand it anymore, and suddenly interrupted Xu Liang's words, and hissed and said, "Okay, okay!" You don't have to repeat that nonsense! What the hell is going to be, you can give me a good word! After that, Emperor Chongzhen rubbed his sore and sore shoulders with one hand, and said in his stomach: Let you continue to talk, the negotiation is not over yet, and he will be beaten to death by him!

Xu Liang was still unsatisfied, licked his lips, and said to Wang Chengen first: "My mouth is dry, Wang Gonggong, you can pour a cup of tea to moisten your throat!" ”

"......" the emperor was angry. Wang Chengen smiled bitterly, then ran out and brought a pot of tea and poured a full cup for Xu Liang.

Under the annoyed gaze of everyone, Xu Liang slowly brought it to his mouth, sniffed it first, and sighed: "Good tea!" Fragrant! ”

The emperor rebuked angrily: "Dare to drink tightly! Drink and get down to business! ”

Xu Liang looked at him, suddenly handed the tea to Emperor Chongzhen's mouth, and said, "The emperor has been scared for so long, he must be thirsty, please drink this cup!" ”

Everyone looked at Wang Chengen with their eyes. Wang Chengen lowered his hand and couldn't see his expression clearly. Emperor Chongzhen sneered, took it and drank it all, and sneered: "See clearly, there is no poison!" ”

Obviously, Emperor Chongzhen saw at a glance Xu Liang's intention to ask him to drink tea first, but he was afraid that Wang Chengen would take the opportunity to poison him.

Xu Liang grinned, "This official is under siege, it's not wrong to be careful." Seeing that the emperor really had no problems, he poured himself a cup with confidence and drank it slowly.

Xu Liang drank a cup slowly, and under the cannibalistic gaze of Emperor Chongzhen, he drank another cup slowly, then put down the cup, and said to Xu Ge Lao and the others: "Okay, I am in much better shape now." ”

Sun Chengzong said: "Xu Liang, you let go of the emperor first, you have the best martial arts in this room, we are all old men, the emperor is by your side, what are you worried about?" ”

When Xu Liang heard this, he hugged the emperor tighter, swinging the scimitar blade back and forth, and said quietly: "The emperor is now a hostage of his own official, since he is a hostage, it is better to hold it in his own hands and rest assured." ”

When Sun Chengzong heard this, he didn't say much. Emperor Chongzhen carefully removed some of Liang's Cold Moon Knife, and said with an ugly face: "At least you can put away this terrifying knife!" ”

Xu Liang thought about it, nodded, and then pulled back the Cold Moon Knife and put it at his feet. However, one hand tightly grabbed one of Chongzhen's arms.

"Say your terms!" Xu Ge Lao said.

Xu Liang groaned, his eyes crossed everyone's faces, and then he smiled and said, "If this situation is made today, if someone else plots against me like this, I Xu Liang will definitely chop me with a knife!" However, it was our emperor who did it, although the official was very unhappy, but as you think, until the last resort, the official didn't want to do anything to the emperor. ”

Elder Xu Ge nodded and agreed: "The old man has already guessed this." ”

Xu Liang said: "However, the matter has reached this point, I want this official to treat it as if it has never happened in the future, even if this official will think like this, I believe that the emperor and the cabinet are not at ease." Even if I promise that this matter will be closed in the future and will not be pursued in the future, how can I believe that the emperor and the court will not pursue it seriously? Maybe you agreed today and then regretted it in two days! ”

Elder Xu Ge and the others listened and nodded slowly, Elder Xu Ge looked at Chongzhen and said, "Your Majesty, do you see?" ”

Emperor Chongzhen was helpless, the facts came to the current situation, and if he wanted to kill Xu Liang, unless he was the emperor with the determination to die, otherwise, the soldiers guarding outside would definitely not be able to kill Xu Liang. If Wen Tiren was just one person outside, Emperor Chongzhen would probably really fight to the death and kill Xu Liang. However, now that Xu Ge Lao and Sun Ge Lao have mixed in, and most of the news of the accident in the palace has also spread outside, most of the Empress Zhou and the crown princesses who were sent out of the palace by Emperor Chongzhen are also rushing back in the direction of the palace. At this time, even if the emperor had the determination to die, Xu Ge Lao and the others would definitely not agree.

Sighing, Emperor Chongzhen said, "I can promise you that after this incident, I will not pursue your crimes." ”

Xu Liang looked at Chongzhen, hehe sneered, noncommittal.

The emperor raised his eyebrows and shouted, "What? Xu Liang, what kind of expression do you have, don't believe me? ”

Xu Liang said quietly: "It's not that I won't be prosecuted for my crimes after this incident, but that I will not be punished for the crimes of this official in the future." Moreover, this official has always believed that "empty words have no evidence, and words are based on evidence"! ”

Emperor Chongzhen was furious: "I am the son of the great tomorrow, the golden mouth and jade words, one word and nine crowns!" Well, no, what are your terms? I can't punish you for any more crimes?! Could it be that if you allow Liang to rebel and rebel, join the enemy and commit treason, I can't cure you of your crimes?! If that's the case, then there's no need to talk about it anymore, I don't want to fight for my life today, and I want to leave you behind! ”

Xu Liang thought about it, compromised, and said: "Well, unless I Xu Liang rebels and rebels and defects to the enemy and treason, the emperor will not cure me!" Well, it's still that sentence that has no basis for words, and the words are based on evidence! ”

When Xu Ge Lao and Sun Ge Lao heard this, they were all shocked, and they could all guess that the reason why Emperor Chongzhen was in a hurry to move his knife against Xu Liang was nothing more than that he was worried that Xu Liang's power would grow and threaten the Ming Dynasty. Now that Xu Liang actually put forward the condition that he should not rebel and rebel, defect to the enemy and treason, and not be punished, didn't he set a trap for himself? The emperor glared at Xu Liang and thought about it for a long time before he said angrily: "Okay! I'll give you the note. Cheng Eun, bring pen and paper! ”

Wang Chengen went to find pen and ink.

Xu Liang waved his hand and said, "Slow! I want a holy decree! ”

The emperor looked at Xu Liang angrily for a long time before he said hatefully: "I will give you the holy decree!" Soon, Wang Chengen found Huang Juan, and Emperor Chongzhen personally wrote the pen with anger, and wrote the will of no longer pursue Xu Liang's crimes, and then printed a big seal and handed it to Xu Liang.

Xu Liang glanced at it and said, "I bother the emperor to sign his name." ”

The emperor was so angry that he saw Xu Liang looking at him without flinching, so he wrote the word Zhu Youzhen again.

Xu Liang thought for a while, squinted at Emperor Chongzhen, and said, "I suddenly remembered, just with a piece of paper, my safety is still not guaranteed. In this way, the emperor, you can make an oath in front of you. ”

“…… What oath? Emperor Chongzhen looked at Xu Liang vigilantly.

Xu Liang thought for a while and said: "Your Majesty, you just say so: unless Xu Liang rebels and rebels, and defects to the enemy and treason, I can't cure Xu Liang for any crimes. Daming Jiangshan will change hands immediately! ”

Emperor Chongzhen was furious and shook his head resolutely: "No!" I will never agree to such a vicious oath. ”

Xu Liang snorted coldly and said: "It's nothing more than an oath, the poison is poisonous, but if the emperor doesn't violate it, what does it matter?" Then, Xu Liang's expression became dangerous, stared at Chongzhen, and said, "Could it be that the emperor has been thinking about getting rid of this official all the time?" Really? Xu Liang slapped the case and said angrily: "Then it's a fart, come on, brother emperor, eat me Xu Liang with a knife!" ”

Xu Liang's Cold Moon Knife hit the emperor's neck again in the blink of an eye, and Xu Ge Lao and the others were shocked: "Xu Liang, don't be impulsive!" ”

"Humph!" Xu Liang sneered.

Wang Chengen looked at Emperor Chongzhen worriedly, "Your Majesty, ......?" ”

Emperor Chongzhen's face changed uncertainly, and he struggled for a while before he was like a deflated ball, and said to Xu Liang in frustration: "Okay, okay, I depend on you!" ”

After that, Emperor Chongzhen really made a vicious oath according to Xu Liang's original words, and after the oath, Emperor Chongzhen's face was extremely ugly.

Xu Liang chuckled, looked very satisfied, and then said to Xu Ge Lao, Sun Ge Lao and Wang Chengen: "On the holy decree, the three of them also signed it to be a witness." ”

Xu Ge and the others were stunned, but seeing that the emperor had signed it, they wrote their names with a wry smile. (To be continued.) )
