Chapter 174: What a Son for the Family!

The housekeeper standing on the side looked at Li Shi and said: "My lord, that Chu Yi is famous, and he has slaughtered literati more than once in Jiangnan, this time ......."

Li Shi stroked his beard and glanced at the housekeeper lightly and said, "Do you want to say that Chu Yi is likely to kill the same this time?" ”

The butler nodded slightly.

Li Shi sneered and said, "If Chu Yi doesn't open the killing ring, then he won't be Chu Yi!" ”

The butler, who had originally lowered his head, couldn't help but look up at Li Shi when he heard this, and he wondered if he had heard it wrong.

You must know that almost all of this is promoted by Li Shi, otherwise Sun Jing'an, a scholar with no prestige and no fame, how could he ascend to the heights and respond to the gathering, in the final analysis, it is not because of Li Shi.

originally thought that his master was sure that Chu Yi would not go on a killing spree because he was sure that his master would promote all this, so he would let people write to the Son of Heaven, trying to create a sensation and put pressure on the Son of Heaven.

If that's the case, that's fine, even if it's impossible to determine Chu Yi's attitude, but if there is a half possibility, you can also try it.

However, after listening to Li Shi's words, the housekeeper's eyes almost fell out, and he looked at Li Shi stupidly.

Listening to Li Shi's meaning, it seemed that he could be sure that Chu Yi would not compromise this time, and would even continue to kill, if this was the case, wouldn't it mean that everyone involved in it would lose their lives.

Suddenly, the housekeeper looked into the distance, and in the courtyard, dozens of literati gathered, among which there was also the figure of his own son-in-law Li Yi.

The housekeeper, who only felt a cold sweat on his back, subconsciously said to Li Shi: "Master, son, he ......"

Li Shi glanced at the housekeeper calmly and said, "If the old man doesn't take a son, how can he get rid of suspicion and win sympathy in the cabinet!" ”

"......"

Li Shi waved his hand, got up slowly, and said: "The old man has six sons and three daughters under his knees, and the old man can afford to give up a son of my Li family!" ”

Since Mo Qing was arrested, as Mo Qing's mentor, Li Shi has felt a great crisis, Mo Qing was picked up by him, and Mo Qing has not had a lot of property to him over the years.

With Chu Yi's style of acting, the Li family didn't think that the other party would let him go easily, so Li Shi had to find a way to protect the Li family, at least to retire safely.

With his own plan flashing in his heart, Li Shi glanced back at Li Yi, who was laughing with the scholars in the distance, and turned around and left with firm steps.

With the arrival of the day when Huang Huai and others were tortured, the capital was like a mountain rain about to come and the wind was full of buildings, which made people feel quite depressed.

In order to avoid accidents, Dongchang and Jinyiwei strengthened the defense of the prison, otherwise if something went wrong, it would be a joke.

Thankfully, everything was unharmed.

Chu Yi seems to be a little busy these days, Yang Tinghe left Beijing, and Chu Yi naturally bothered a little more about many government affairs in the cabinet.

Leopard room

Zhu Houzhao's mood seemed quite good, and even the eunuchs and eunuchs who served him smiled a little more.

On this day, a palanquin stopped outside the leopard room, and a white-haired old man walked out of the palanquin and looked at the leopard room, with a look of determination in his eyes.

The old man walked to the front and saluted to the chamberlain guarding the door and said, "This father-in-law, please also act as Tongbing, Li Shi asks to see Your Majesty!" ”

The waiter hurriedly returned the salute and said, "Elder Li Ge, later, the slave maid will go here to pay tribute to the son of tomorrow." ”

Soon Li Shi entered the leopard room, and when he saw Zhu Houzhao, Zhu Houzhao was practicing calligraphy there, Li Shi stepped forward and saluted Zhu Houzhao and said, "Minister Li Shi, meet Your Majesty." ”

Zhu Houzhao put down the brush in his hand, wiped his hands and glanced at Li Shi and said, "The elder of the cabinet is here, is there something in the cabinet?" ”

Li Shi's ability is mediocre among several elders, and he is not very conspicuous, but among the elders, Zhu Houzhao still has an impression.

Li Shi fell to his knees with a puff, and cried loudly: "Your Majesty, the old minister is guilty, the old minister is guilty!" ”

Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but be stunned, looked at Li Shi who was crying bitterly, and said with a puzzled look on his face: "Li Ge Lao, why is this." ”

Gu Da glanced at Li Shi at this moment, and coughed lightly: "Master Li, Your Majesty asked you something, but you said it!" ”

Li Shi wiped away his tears, and said with a look of self-reproach: "Your Majesty, there is no way to teach the son, but he has raised a son Li Yi, what is wrong with this evil handicap, what is wrong with learning, and even the scholar contacted the sergeant in Beijing, trying to jointly write to the Son of Heaven and impeach the head of Chu Yi......"

Suddenly, Zhu Houzhao's face became extremely ugly, and the scholars jointly signed a letter, which in Zhu Houzhao's opinion is not much different from the direct advice of hundreds of officials, to put it bluntly, it is to use the so-called righteous name to pressure him, the emperor, is to force the palace.

Rightly or wrongly, few emperors would like to be forced into the palace by their courtiers.

I saw Li Shi take out a roster from his cuff, tremble his hands, and handed it to Gu Dayong: "Your Majesty, please see, this is the roster of the Beijing sergeant who was united by the evil son, and after the old minister noticed it, he immediately brought the roster to meet Your Majesty." ”

Zhu Hou looked at Li Shi, who blamed himself, and only felt that the other party was a little pitiful, dignified and old, but his family was unlucky, and Li Yi was such a troublesome son.

took the roster, swept his eyes, and the first person was called Sun Jing'an, followed by Li Yi, and the next was a dense number of names, about to take a look, there were almost 100 people.

Obviously, during this time, Sun Jingan and others contacted some people to join them.

Once hundreds of literati jointly write a book, it will definitely make waves in this Beijing division, especially when Huang Huai and others are about to be ambushed, even Zhu Houzhao has a string in his heart, and he is afraid that something will happen in Beijing.

Of course, what annoyed Zhu Houzhao the most was the actions of these people to force the palace, and it was just a matter of civil and military officials forcing the palace, he couldn't move hundreds of officials, but what are these scholars, when can a group of literati force him be forced to be the son of heaven.

Li Shi lay on the ground, and secretly watched Zhu Houzhao's expression change, and his heart couldn't help but hang.

"Your Majesty, the old minister is guilty, the family is unfortunate, come today, the old minister does not ask His Majesty to spare Li Yi's son, I implore Your Majesty to let the old minister return to his hometown, if he can collect the body of the son, the old minister is grateful!"

Bang, bang, bang

Li Shi kowtowed, and in the blink of an eye, the skin on his forehead was broken and blood oozed out, Zhu Houzhao was magnanimous by nature, seeing Li Shi like this, he hurriedly stepped forward to help Li Shi up and said: "The elder of the pavilion is my old minister, your loyalty, I already know, Li Yi's actions have nothing to do with the elder of the pavilion, how can I make the elder of the pavilion tell the old man because of Li Yi, otherwise I will not become a faint king who does not know right and wrong?" ”

"The old minister has no way to teach his son, what face does he have to stay in the cabinet, if His Majesty really pities the old minister, then let the old minister return to his hometown, the old minister will be thousands of miles away, pray for His Majesty every day!"

Saying that, Li Shi knelt on the ground, bowed to the ground with five bodies, and said very resolutely: "If Your Majesty does not agree, the minister will not be able to kneel for a long time!" ”

Zhu Houzhao frowned, looked at Li Shi, and sighed lightly for a while: "I understand what the Qing family means, you get up first, and let me think about it." ”

Hearing that there was a sense of relaxation between Zhu Houzhao's words, Li Shi's heart was relieved, what he wanted was to get out safely and leave the big whirlpool of the capital, even if it was to take a son for this, as long as he could keep the Li family, it would be worth it.

Seeing Li Shi leave, Zhu Houzhao's eyes fell on the roster, and his face was extremely gloomy and said: "Gu Daban, am I too merciful, these people are so bold, don't they know that this is forcing the palace?" If you want to save face! ”

Looking at Zhu Houzhao patting the table, Gu Dayong hurriedly said: "Your Majesty is angry, angry, for a group of irrelevant people, you are angry, it's not worth it!" ”

calmed down his anger, Zhu Houzhao said: "Invite me to invite General Chu's companion!" ”

Gu Da sighed lightly in his heart, looking at Zhu Houzhao's attitude, these literati are afraid that they are going to be unlucky!

Chu Yi rushed over as soon as he received the summons, just by taking a look, Chu Yi was surprised in his heart, isn't Zhu Houzhao in a very good mood in the past two days, who provoked this emperor.

"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"

Zhu Houzhao handed the roster on the table to Chu Yi and said, "Big companion, take a look, it's these people, it's really angry!" ”

Chu Yi took the roster with a puzzled face, and there were hundreds of names on it, but there was nothing but names, even if he was in charge of Dongchang, he was not omniscient.

At this time, Gu Dayong coughed lightly and explained to Chu Yi in a low voice, and after listening to Gu Dayong's explanation, Chu Yi finally understood why Zhu Houzhao looked angry.

Glancing at the roster again, the corners of Chu Yi's mouth showed a sneer of disdain: "Your Majesty, why should you be angry with a group of arrogant Confucians, the ministers have killed wave after wave in Jiangnan, I thought it would make them have a long memory, it seems that the minister's butcher's knife has not killed enough!" ”

A sense of murderous intent flashed from Chu Yi's body, and Gu Dayong, who was standing beside Chu Yi, only felt a chill all over his body, and couldn't help but glance at Chu Yi in awe.

In this capital, I'm afraid that only this one dares to kill the scholar so lightly.

Zhu Houzhao thought that Chu Yi had indeed killed a lot of literati in Jiangnan, and his heart was also a little murderous by Chu Yi's words, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he only heard Zhu Houzhao say coldly: "What the companion said is right, they think that this is the capital, and you don't dare to kill the ring, so you dare to despise me so much!" ”

Saying that, Zhu Houzhao's voice was a little hoarse and said: "Since this is the case, then kill me!" ”

can let such a generous emperor as Zhu Houzhao give birth to such a murderous opportunity, you can imagine how angry Zhu Houzhao is in his heart.

[Well, there will be a change in a while, asking for a monthly pass, a monthly pass, and a reward. 】
