Chapter 196: Intercession (Part II)

Gu Lu and Li rushed to the south of the imperial city again, and the little servant drove the ox cart to enter the Xuanyang Gate, and the Yulin Supervisor who guarded it stepped forward to stop the ox cart when it was five zhang away from the city gate, and stood in front of the car and asked loudly: "Who is driving?" ”

The little servant replied: "Inside the car is the mother of the Gu family of Wu County, and she entered the palace this time to ask to see Your Majesty." ”

"Wu Jun Gu?" Yulin Jian had some doubts in his words, and the little servant nodded, and then said: "It is the two master mothers of the left servant shooter family in Shangshu Province." ”

Yulin Jian is the female dependant of the left servant of Shangshu Province who wants to enter the palace, and immediately changed his face and said: "Your Majesty has an order, the family members of the Gu family of Wu County are not allowed to enter the imperial city, otherwise, they will be killed on the spot!" ”

The little guy was stunned, and hurriedly looked back in the direction of the car door, at that time, Gu Lushi was sitting in the car, and he had already opened the door curtain and poked his head out, and said to Yulin Supervisor: "The old man entered the palace to ask for something important to see His Majesty, and I also ask the little general to be accommodating." ”

Yu Lin Jian said bluntly: "If the Gu family's family members want to go in, they will all be killed on the spot, this is Your Majesty's command, and no one dares to disobey it." ”

"Yes...... But I need to see Your Majesty for something, it is a matter of my son Geng's life, please be accommodating and accommodating, little general," Gu Lushi said, and then he cried again, but he was still crying, but it was also moving, Yulin Jian didn't say anything, so he had to turn around, and wanted to turn back to the city gate, at this time Li also opened the door curtain and called: "General, we are really asking to see Your Majesty in a hundred thousand urgent matters, so you can be accommodating." ”

Yulin Jian stopped, turned around and said: "It's not that I'm not accommodating, this is Your Majesty's dictation, I won't let you in, we will all be fine, but if I let you in, then my head will have to move." ”

Li Shi stepped down from the ox cart from the other side, and walked towards Yulin Jian step by step, her face was calm, unusually calm, and only said: "General Fang Cai said, Your Majesty said, if the Gu family's family members want to go in, they will all be killed on the spot, then what if I am willing to be killed on the spot?" Should the general let me in? ”

Gu Lu was stunned, Yulin Jian was also stunned for a moment, and Li said again: "The general can kill me according to the rules, but I only ask the general to spare half of my life, so that I can insist on walking to the holy driver." ”

Yu Lin Jian hesitated for a while, and said: "There is a big Sima Gate behind this, and when you enter the imperial city, you have to pass through the car gate and the end gate, even if you enter the Xuanyang Gate, then the three gates behind you, can you get by!" What a madman! ”

Li Shi didn't answer, but only said: "General, let's do it." ”

"Nope! No way! Gu Lushi hurriedly shouted, stretched out his hand to reach the direction where Li was standing, half of his body leaned forward again, this time in a panic, he accidentally fell off the car, she groaned in pain, Li heard it, looked back and saw her fall, shocked, and shouted: "Mother!" ”

As he spoke, he hurriedly ran to help Gu Lu's up, Gu Lu's was already old, and his body was naturally not as good as that of a young man, this time he fell, but it was not light, he was supported by Li and Xiaowu left and right, so he could barely stand up, but his body couldn't stand up straight, and he thought that he injured his back when he fell.

"Mother, how are you, are you alright?" Li Shicai was very calm in the face of life and death, but now seeing Gu Lu's injury, he was not calm, and he cried out at once, it turned out that Fang Cai's composure was just pretending.

Gu Lushi held his back with one hand, frowned and said in pain: "My waist, ......"

Li Shi looked at her, her nose was sour, and her tears couldn't stop flowing down, she helped Li Shi to walk onto the ox cart, and said, "Let's go back to the house first, and ask a doctor to come and see you." ”

Gu Lushi wiped his tears and said, "How can there be any imperial doctor's order, the imperial city can't enter, how can you invite the imperial doctor's order......"

"Then Yuan Niang will invite you to invite the best doctor in the city to come and see," Li was already in tears, and the group quickly returned to the house, and the porter saw the two coming back, and stepped forward to inform: "Seventh lady, the master of the in-law family has come here and said that he has something to do with you." ”

Li Shi was slightly stunned, and his heart was also open, his father came to her at this time, undoubtedly for Gu Xun's business, he either wanted to discuss with her how to save Gu Xun, or he wanted her to reconcile with Gu Xun, so as not to be implicated.

"Got it, you go and ask a doctor quickly, my mother fell off the ox cart and injured her waist," Li's eyes were clearly a little dodgy, and she was also afraid that Gu Lu's would guess Li Rong's intention, but Gu Lu's didn't understand!

Li helped Gu Lushi back to the room, and rubbed her waist for her, and then instructed the maid to bring cold water, and put a handkerchief on Gu Lu's waist with a cold compress.

After sending the doctor away, Gu Lu's pain was slightly reduced after treatment, and he lay on the bed and asked: "Yuan Niang, Zigeng's affairs are all bad for me, an old woman, but Your Majesty will not allow us to enter the palace, and we have nowhere to say the truth of the matter, what can we do......

"Mother, don't worry, I will find a way to do this, I can go to my father, or I can go to my cousin, beg him to intercede with the lord ......of Hengyang, no matter how bad it is, no matter how bad it is, Li Shi said this, paused, and said aggrievedly: "No matter how bad it is, I will personally beg her, in short, no matter what, I will rescue my husband!" ”

"Don't beg her!" As soon as Gu Lu's heard the Li clan mention Xie Zheng, a wave of anger immediately surged into his heart, and he couldn't help but get excited, and reprimanded: "That woman, she is ruthless, she even dares to kill her own brother, and she doesn't even blink her eyes when she kills, she is clearly a female goblin who eats people and doesn't spit out bones, you go and beg her?" She doesn't know how she's going to humiliate you! ”

"But the bell must be tied to the bell, if you don't ask her, now we have no other way......"

Gu Lushi was faceless for a while, and buried his face between his arms in shame, and only cried and said, "It's all my fault...... It's all my fault for being careless......"

What she said now was "careless", not "momentarily confused" or "momentarily impulsive", Li felt helpless, and there was nothing to say, she could only stand up and say: "It's not time now, my father is on the imperial history platform, and later, I will go back to my parents' house and ask my father to think of a way, so that my mother can rest." ”

Gu Lu was silent, still sobbing silently, after Li finished speaking, he turned around and was about to walk out, but at this time, a maid ran into the house in a panic and said, "Oh no, no, no!" The main mother, the seventh lady, suddenly a group of officers and soldiers came outside, surrounding our mansion! ”

"What!" Li froze, Gu Lu also raised his head, followed the voice to look at the little maid who came to report the news, and then his eyes were dark, and he buried his face again, at this time Li was facing away from Gu Lu, naturally he didn't see anything, but the maid faced Li, naturally saw that Gu Lu had fainted, and exclaimed: "Master!" ”

Li also looked back when she heard this, she walked to the side of the bed and gently pushed Gu Lu, knowing that she was unconscious, she hurriedly instructed the little maid: "You take care of the housewife here, I'll go out and have a look." ”

The maid answered, and Li, as soon as he finished speaking, turned his head and ran out, and when he arrived at the front yard, he saw that there were four or five officers and soldiers standing in the courtyard, one of them was the leader, wearing civilian clothes, holding a long knife in his hand, and the other four were wearing armor and holding spears.

"You're the head of the house?" When the leader saw Li coming over, he immediately asked a little fiercely.

Li walked over, bowed, and said respectfully, "I am the lady of the left servant, Li." ”

"Oh," the leader glanced at her, and then said: "Below is Chen Qingzhi, a lieutenant of the Northern Army, on the orders of His Majesty, leading the army to guard the Gu family's mansion. ”

Chen Qingzhi didn't give Li a good face, nor did he have the slightest politeness to her.

Li looked at the gate of the mansion, and sure enough, he saw a few officers and soldiers standing at the gate of the mansion, scattered and standing, about half a step away there was a person guarding, and at this time most of the maids and servants in the house had already arrived in the front yard, not to mention the two gatehouses, as soon as they saw a group of officers and soldiers running over, they were busy fleeing to the courtyard, and everyone was waiting for Li to inquire about the situation.

"Yes......" Li Shi agreed, but he was panicked in his heart, and now he can't get out, but how can he go to someone to intercede......

Chen Qingzhi looked at the Li family, and suddenly said: "You Gu family, you hurt my sister Xie like that, I will definitely take care of you this time." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and walked out quite arrogantly, and then told the four people accompanying him: "Tell me to go down and show me all the people here, not a single fly is allowed to fly out!" ”

"Yes!"

The four of them followed Chen Qingyi to the gate of the mansion, Chen Qingzhi walked straight out, but the four of them turned to face the front yard, and the gods of the same door were stationed there to guard.

"Seventh Madam, what can I do about this?"

"yes, what should I do!"

"Are we going to die here......"

A group of maids and maids on the left and right said one by one, Li stood there, gradually unable to hear what those people were saying, only felt that his mind was blank, and he fell down all of a sudden, and several maids came forward to help her up, exclaiming: "Seventh lady!" Lady Seven! ”

Li Shi opened his eyes in a trance, looked at the porter, and asked, "My father came to me just now, did he say anything?" ”

The porter replied, "He didn't say anything, but he didn't see you, so he said he would come back later." ”

Li Shi breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that her father was a doctor of imperial history, and even if the lieutenant of the Northern Army regarded the Gu family as an enemy, he would always give his father a face and allow him to come in to visit.

The maid has been sent to retreat, Li sat in the living room and waited for an afternoon, after the unitary, he walked to the door of the house to wait, not long after, Li Rong really came, people got off the ox cart, Li stood inside and saw it, called: "Father," busy and wanted to run out, but was helplessly blocked from the way out.

As soon as Li Rong got out of the car, Chen Qingzhi walked over and saluted, and asked, "Why did Dr. Yushi come here?" ”

"Lieutenant Chen," Li Rong also nodded at Chen Qingzhi, and said politely: "The old man is here to see his daughter." ”

"Daughter?"

Li Rong pointed to the Li family on the other side of the door, Chen Qingzhi glanced back, and then said to Li Rong: "Doctor Yushi, Ziyun is on the orders of His Majesty, guarding here, if you want to go in, Ziyun is not easy to stop, but you don't want to be too long, you can't make it difficult for Ziyun." ”

"Uh...... Okay, thank you, thank you," Li Rong hurriedly walked into the house.

Li also greeted her, she was afraid that Li Rong would ask her to reconcile with Gu Xun as soon as she opened her mouth, so she preemptively said: "Father, please save your husband!" ”

"Alas," Li Rong sighed and said: "Yuan Niang, if I really have the ability to save Zi Geng, how can I let you be so wronged, Zi Geng, this child, caused such a catastrophe, I'm afraid no one can save him." ”

"How so! Father, go and beg your majesty, or...... Or you go to your cousin and ask him to intercede with the lord of Hengyang, the lord of Hengyang has a lot of friendship with her husband, and now that her husband has an accident, she will never sit idly by! ”

Li Rong only felt ridiculous when he heard this, and said: "It's Zigeng who sent someone to hurt her, and she is still unconscious, how can she not care!" ”

"No, it's not! Actually, it's ......" Li was trying to tell the truth, but he was afraid that he would be sorry for Gu Lu, so he hesitated for a while, and Li Rong hurriedly said: "Yuan Niang, you don't have to intercede for Zi Geng anymore, for my father this trip, I want to take you home, you can go with me quickly......"

At that time, Chen Qingzhi was standing behind, and he couldn't hold his breath when he heard this, he, the lieutenant of the Northern Army, was still here, why did this Imperial Doctor want to take people away so blatantly?

Li took two steps back and cried, "No! Father, I'm not leaving! Now Zi Geng is in trouble, I can't just leave......"

"You're not leaving? If you don't leave, what are you doing here? Waiting to die? Do you know that Zi Geng's crime is not small, he was convicted after seven days, he will be beheaded to show the public, and the Gu family will inevitably suffer, you are the wife of the Gu family, his wife, if something happens to him, you will not be able to protect yourself! The light one is not a slave, and the heavy one is going to die with him! ”

"Father also said, I am Zigeng's wife, then I naturally have to accompany him, my daughter was born a member of the Gu family, and died as a ghost of the Gu family, as for my father's seventeen years of nurturing," Li suddenly knelt on the ground and choked up: "If my daughter can be safe and sound this time, he will definitely repay her parents one day, if not...... Please also ask the father to forgive his daughter for being unfilial......"

"You! You kid...... Confused...... Confused! Li Rong pointed at Li, his hands were trembling, his face was full of bitterness and helplessness, Li didn't dare to think about it, so he simply kowtowed heavily and knelt down.

Chen Qingzhi walked behind Li Rong and said, "Doctor Yushi, you've been in for a while, look ......?"

Before he finished speaking, Li Rong brushed his sleeves, turned around and walked away without looking back, except when he turned around, he left a long sigh.
