Chapter 392: Gu Wen was injured
The little emperor's anger in the court soon reached the ears of Xue Rou and Yuan Junfeng. Because of Yuan Junfeng's special status, the first emperor allowed him not to go to court for a few days, unless it was a special case.
Yuan Junfeng didn't go that day, and when he finished breakfast, he heard that the little emperor and the ministers had a quarrel in the court, and no one let anyone, but made a big noise, and finally broke up unhappily.
Xue Rou took a bite of the bun, listened to Fang Ji reporting to them what she had heard outside, and said suspiciously, "Why do these people want to target Gu Wen?" It's weird. Could it be that Gu Cai's power has reached this point? Not necessarily, otherwise he wouldn't be where he is now. Pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger? ”
Yuan Junfeng shook his head, "I can't see it." Gu Cai's power must be there, but there should not be many people, and Gu Wen is a little flamboyant on weekdays, and he has the favor of His Majesty, I am afraid that some people have already turned red-eyed, and they can't wait to pull him into the water at this time, and they can't get up again. ”
Xue Rou said, "What you said also makes sense. However, I still have to go to the palace in the afternoon to find His Majesty, he can't be so rushed and speechless every time. I'm going to comfort him. ”
Yuan Junfeng nodded, "Go ahead, I won't enter the palace, it's a special time." You don't have an official position on you, and if I go, I will inevitably be chewed and gossiped about again. ”
Xue Rou said, "I'll go after breakfast." ”
She drank the porridge with a grunt, and Yuan Junfeng said helplessly, "Drink slowly, don't be in such a hurry, it may not work if you go early." ”
Xue Rou smiled and didn't speak again, but her movements did slow down.
The little emperor found that Xue Rou had been in the palace more frequently recently, and he could think of it with his toes, probably because of the dispute with the ministers in the morning, which was known to Xue Rou. He felt a little unhappy in his heart, "Sister Xue, I am obviously the emperor, why can they still refute it so confidently?" I am so incompetent that I let them grow into such a big force. Fortunately, they have found it now, but if they don't find it, let them continue to grow, and they don't know what they will become. ”
Xue Rou rubbed his head, "No, Your Majesty is just young now, and they don't accept it." But I see that His Majesty already has the bearing of a monarch, and it is only a matter of time before he subdues them. Soon. ”
The little emperor nodded, "I just think it's strange, how could so many people find out at that time and let me dismiss Gu Wen, it's really strange." I don't think these people usually have any major disputes and interests with him, so why did they add fuel to his fire? I wish he were dead. ”
Xue Rou said, "Not necessarily, maybe there are some benefits that His Majesty just didn't see." Gu Wen usually does things vigorously and resolutely, and it is inevitable that he will offend people without knowing it. ”
"For example, the last time he said that he wanted to build a poor people's residence outside the city, maybe that land was exactly the homestead that some minister wanted, so I can't say. Maybe those people were provoked, or maybe they were accidentally offended by him. There is also the fact that Gu Wen is favored in front of His Majesty. ”
The little emperor said indignantly, "Isn't Sister Xue the one I love the most?" I listen to Sister Xue for everything, why don't they come to harm you? It's not that he sees that General Yuan is powerful and doesn't dare to touch you. If Gu Wen is powerless and powerless, they will frame him casually, do they still take me, the emperor, into account?! ”
Xue Rou smiled faintly and did not speak.
Who said that she was not framed, didn't she be accused of collaborating with the enemy and treason last time, and she was still in prison for several days.
The little emperor also remembered this incident, and his face was a little apologetic, "Sister Xue, I shouldn't have mentioned this matter." ”
Xue Rou shook her head, "It's okay, Your Majesty, it's all a trivial matter." It was precisely because I was framed last time that Gu Wen found out the truth and rescued me, so I also hope to help him. It's like what I was now, and I can't let those people get away with it. ”
The little emperor was originally very angry, but when he heard Xue Rou say this, he also began to feel guilty in his heart, after all, he had been haunted by Xue Rou last time he was arrested in prison, hating himself for not being capable, and even putting Xue Rou in, although he was forced to do so, he still blamed himself. Therefore, now that Xue Rou said this, the little emperor was much less angry with Gu Wen in his heart.
The guilt for Xue Rou was also reversed, "Sister Xue, don't worry, I must find out about this matter, I let Sister Xue be wronged last time, and this time I must not let such a thing happen again." ”
Xue Rou nodded, "I believe in Your Majesty." ”
The two of them discussed what to do about this matter, and the little emperor meant to keep talking to these ministers to the end, to see what kind of moths they could make, and by the way, they served it in a pot.
Xue Rou disagreed, "Your Majesty can't do this, they are numerous, and they are threatening in the court, it is easy to incite the emotions of others, I think we still have to follow them a little bit, and then investigate this matter." ”
The little emperor said angrily, "I am the emperor, I am the son of heaven, why do you have to listen to them in everything, it's strange, why don't these courtiers put on their posture?!" Could it be that they want to rebel?! ”
Seeing that the little emperor was angry, Xue Rou hurriedly coaxed, "There is nothing to do, Your Majesty don't think about it." They just fell into the trap for Gu Wen, but they didn't have the idea of rebellion. His Majesty would only be angry with himself if he thought so. ”
"In this way, Your Majesty, I think that Gu Wen's official position will be removed first, and let them relax their vigilance thinking that we have agreed, and we will investigate in private, so as to calm down the people's anger."
The little emperor was still a little unwilling, "What if Gu Wen really didn't do it?" ”
Xue Rou smiled, she naturally believed that Gu Wen had done nothing, but she couldn't use her intuition and trust in Gu Wen's character to block the mouths of those ministers, the only way was to follow their wishes and remove Gu Wen's official position first.
After analyzing the pros and cons for the little emperor, he also agreed to do so. Therefore, a holy decree went down, and Gu Wen was removed from his official position in prison, and he also became a concubine, even a sinner.
The next day, the ministers didn't say anything after knowing the consequences, but Gu Wen's life in prison was not so good. After all, he is a sinner now, and he has no official position, and it is difficult to get up, so some people go to bully him, and so do the jailers, and their attitude is not as good as before.
It turned out that seeing Yuan Junfeng and Xue Rou still coming to see him, he was also a little jealous. Xue Rou and Yuan Jun were outside to give him Zhang Luo, but after not coming for a few days, the jailer's attitude towards him also changed, he used to call Master Gu respectfully, but now he called Gu Wen directly, and his attitude was fierce. This is the true nature of a jailer who worships high and low.
On this day, an uninvited guest came to the prison, and the jailer burped, picked his teeth with a toothpick, and opened the cell door, "Gu Wen, your brother has come to see you, see it." Young Master Gu Yuan is a well-known son and brother in our capital, it is not easy to come to this prison to see you, don't be ignorant. ”
Gu Wen was locked up in prison for a few days, his hair was fluffy and messy, and the stubble on his chin had grown some out, he sneered, "I don't go out, which of you likes to go?" Who said he was my brother, I don't have such a brute brother. I'm ashamed to have the same filthy blood as him. ”
The jailer flicked it over, "What to do?" Who do you show your face to? The young master came to see you, don't kick my nose in the face, give me a shameless look, do you think you are the old Master Gu? Even the emperor has removed you from your official position, and you are now just a sinner! How dare you your tail to the sky?! ”
Gu Wensheng accepted the whip, felt that the skin and flesh were a little blooming, and when he reached out and touched it, blood was already oozing out of his clothes, and he was even more disgusted, "If you want to fight, you will fight, and if you want to kill, you will kill." If you are not afraid of His Majesty's blame and abuse of lynching, you can use it! ”
"You..."
The jailer was furious, raised his whip, and was about to fight again when he suddenly heard a flirtatious laugh from behind.
"Yo yo yo, who is this? It's a lot of nonsense here, and those who don't know think you're guessing it's the emperor. How about Your Majesty, do you think Your Majesty is still willing to take care of you now? You're just a prostitute and a murderer! ”
It was Gu Yuan who came with money behind his back, his injuries from being beaten by Xue Rou and Yuan Junfeng had already healed, and now he looked like a dog-like son. It's just that she was raised by Aunt Liu too fat, and the white meat was squeezed out, and she couldn't see the romance, only that she was a little greasy.
Gu Wen looked at him coldly, "What are you doing here?" ”
Gu Yuan raised the folding fan in his hand, "What are you doing?" What else can be done? My brother is in prison, and of course my younger brother wants to come to visit, otherwise how can I say that it will be in the past. You're going to blame me for not having a blood relationship. ”
Gu Wen spat fiercely on the ground, "Who is your brother?" A brute like you, I want to skin you alive! ”
Thinking of the evidence he found, Gu Yuan ruined a lot of girls. But he is standing here now, those daughters are not very old, but they have already died in Huangquan.
Gu Yuan pinched his chin, "Tut-tut, you're still so hard-mouthed, I think you won't be able to get hard soon!" ”
"Someone, catch him for me! I heard that you have a very good way of treating dishonest prisoners in this prison, and the young master will appreciate it today. Let's see if the skin flies out first, or if the meat rolls out first and sprinkles the blood on the ground. ”
Gu Yuan sat opposite with Erlang's legs crossed, still holding a handful of melon seeds in his hand, while Gu Wen was forcibly chained to the execution post, and his subordinates beat him with whips one by one.
Gu Yuan sneered and said, "You, like your dead prostitute mother, have a good life, but you don't want to be free." Now it's okay, let's be free, it's really the same shameless, the Gu family raised you two white-eyed wolves, no wonder your father wants to cut off the father-son relationship with you. ”
Gu Wen spit out a mouthful of blood, "I, Gu Wen... I will not be with you... Not uncommon... Your father-son relationship..."
Gu Yuan threw the melon seed shell on the ground and patted the dust on his hands, "Lord Gu is really good, so it seems that we don't have to show mercy." Since Master Gu is so backbone, it's good to give the young master, hit it down, don't hurt your face, don't let people see it. Hit me hard! ”
