Chapter 660: The Public
The living person in the world who dares to judge the emperor's "clear judgment" in such a mocking tone is probably the only one Xiao Xu so far.
Old Patriarch Cai was so stunned by a simple word that he didn't know how to answer, for fear that if he said too much, Xiao Xu would tell all the things that could not be made public in front of so many people.
The Cai family was almost wiped out, and now it is the bitter master, and many ministers and people in the court and the people are now sympathetic to their family, but if the secret is known, how will the Cai family gain a foothold in the future?
Old Patriarch Cai's mind was full of thoughts, but in fact, it was just a blink of an eye.
Xiao Xu pushed it casually, and the six princes whose hands were tied wanted to struggle, but they could only raise their arms in vain, and fell on the high platform in an extremely ugly posture.
"Your Highness Six!" Old Patriarch Cai was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, "Xiao Xu, there is something to say, something to say!" What do you want, you draw a way, let's go along, you just don't say anything, you kid up the six princes, let so many people see, what are you for! ”
"I want to see the emperor." Xiao Xu smiled and stepped on the shoulders of the six princes, like stepping on a lifeless bench, casually putting his weight on his shoulders.
"Ahh The sixth prince snorted in pain and scolded, "Xiao Xu, you madman! It's not enough for you to kill nearly a hundred members of my grandfather's family, you still dare to kidnap this prince! Aren't you afraid that your father will punish you? ”
"If I'm afraid, I won't tie you up here, and I have called so many fathers and villagers to testify."
Xiao Xu's face was pale, and there was even a smile in his voice, looking around, seeing that the people were gathering more and more, he couldn't help but think of Chu Junlan's chic behavior in Hongfeng Mountain in the capital, and his eyes gradually turned red.
clenched his teeth, and his jaw showed a tight arc: "It turns out that it feels good to stand on a high place and face so many people." ”
Jing Yu, Huo Yeqing and Zhang Li, who were standing behind Xiao Xu, couldn't help but feel sad when they thought of the past.
"The emperor doesn't want to see you, why do you want to do such an outrageous thing? The demon girl of the Chu family killed her mother-in-law, the crime is unforgivable, the emperor has allowed her to give birth to a child before executing, it is already an extrajudicial grace, but you refuse to appreciate it, are you not afraid of disappointing the emperor's painstaking efforts! Old Patriarch Xiao stomped his feet, trying to make all the people understand that Xiao Xu didn't know the etiquette.
Xiao Xu lowered his eyes, and everyone couldn't see his expression clearly: "Old Patriarch Cai's kung fu of reversing black and white is really first-class, if you still want to see your Cai family's last hope shattered, you can just tell me, you don't have to anger me so much." ”
"You ......" Old Patriarch Cai seemed to have the tragic scene in front of him, his face turned white in an instant, and his eyes widened in horror.
This is, there was another commotion in the crowd, Xiao Xu stood high and looked far away, so he could naturally see who was coming.
Xu heard the news here, and the families of high-ranking noble ministers such as Prince Gong's Mansion, Maoguo Mansion, and Dingguo Mansion all came, and even Chu Huayun squeezed to the front of the crowd with a worried face.
"Brother-in-law!"
Xiao Xu looked down at Chu Huayun and just smiled.
Prince Gong was furious: "Rebel! You still don't let go of the Sixth Highness! Have you ever considered Prince Gong's Mansion in doing this? You're a rebel! ”
Xiao Xu's left hand was behind his back, and his right hand casually played with the jade belt buckle tied to his waist, which was his soft sword, as long as he pressed the tension spring, the seemingly ordinary belt would become a sharp weapon for killing.
Seeing that he refused to answer, Prince Gong said again: "Xiao Xu, aren't you losing enough people!" You don't come down yet! ”
"Shame?" Xiao Xu suddenly raised his head, looked at Prince Gong coldly, and laughed heartbreakingly.
"Am I ashamed? It's funny, it's so funny! ”
Jing Yu was afraid that Xiao Xu would fall headlong, so he hurriedly pulled Xiao Xu's sleeve.
Xiao Xu bent over with a smile, and pointed at Prince Gong under the high platform out of breath, and then pointed at Old Patriarch Cai.
"You guys, you guys, it's so funny! You don't feel ashamed of yourself for cruelty to your relatives and unscrupulous means to achieve your goals, and you are embarrassed to live in this world with a shy face. ”
Prince Gong almost didn't know this son anymore.
In the past, he didn't talk much to anyone, and he was introverted and cold, but one day he would make things like this for a woman.
"Crazy, crazy, this son is crazy......" Prince Gong couldn't help but mutter.
Princess Zhang also clenched her fists and said in horror: "Xiao Xu, you come down, we can discuss anything!" If you do this, you will kill the whole house, you know! Hurry down! ”
"Kill the whole house?" Xiao Xu squatted on the edge of the high platform, grabbed the hair of the sixth prince, dragged him to the edge of the high platform, and pressed his head to make him poke out half of his body.
"Ahh
Everyone in the audience who saw this scene exclaimed.
The six princes were immediately frightened, and they couldn't even say words to beg for mercy in fright.
"Six Highnesses, Six Highnesses!" Old Patriarch Cai turned around and instructed the guards around him: "You guys go up quickly and save the Sixth Highness, quickly!" ”
Huo Yeqing and Zhang Li saw that someone below was planning to break up, so they immediately turned around and ordered the first dozen men behind them to block the stairs and not allow anyone to come up and make trouble.
Soon, there was a scuffle on the stairs on the side of the high platform.
Xiao Xu seemed to have given up everything, tilted his head and said to Prince Gong, "Do you regret it?" ”
"What?" Prince Gong was asked for unknown reasons.
Xiao Xu said: "On that day, you said that in order to calm the turmoil in the dragon robe, sacrificing a small Chu clan is nothing, and a Chu clan, what is not cost-effective in exchange for the peace of our whole family?" ”
Xiao Xu's voice gradually smiled: "Now, I, the prince of Prince Gong, kidnapped the prince and committed a great crime of disrespect, is your family at peace?" ”
"You-" Prince Gong yelled, he couldn't just break Xiao Xu's neck, "Rebel, you did it on purpose, you are hopeless!" ”
"Isn't that the retribution you people deserve?" Xiao Xu asked calmly.
Princess Zhang screamed: "What about you? You have killed so many people, are you not afraid of retribution? ”
Xiao Xu got up suddenly and spread his arms: "Then immediately retribution will be on me, let me die!" ”
The sixth prince was still hanging outside the high platform with his body half-stretched, Xiao Xu's hand grabbing his hair suddenly let go, and the six princes almost fell unsteadily, scaring themselves out of a cold sweat.
In the crowd, Mao Guogong wrinkled his eyebrows and shook his head, and ordered Chu Hua and Chu Shan beside him: "Don't look at it, go home." ”
Chu Hua was full of worries: "Father, the son wants to stay and persuade him." ”
"Persuade? This person has gone crazy, for the sake of a woman to do this, there is no help, go home. ”
Mao Guogong knew his son's temper, so he simply grabbed Chu Hua and Chu Shan's wrists one by one, and forcibly took them out.
Chu Hua turned his head frequently, looking at the young man who was standing on the edge of the high platform, who had a dusty temperament in the past, and now became like this, he couldn't bear it for a while: "Father, at this critical time, my family doesn't stretch out my hand, when will I reach out?" ”
Shook off Mao Guogong's hand, turned around and squeezed in front of the high platform, and said in a loud voice: "Xu'er, you calm down, if you do this, it will only make the relatives and enemies happy, and it will be completely useless!" ”
