Remember [ .] in one second, wonderful free reading without pop-ups!

For a time, half of the civil and military people of the Manchu Dynasty knelt down and pleaded guilty: "The minister is also guilty!" ”

"The minister is guilty!"

"The minister is guilty!"

Emperor Xuanqing sat on the dragon chair, and gradually couldn't sit still anymore, he slowly walked down his throne, walked down the steps step by step, and stood in front of his son. Emperor Xuanqing bent over, his hands were very heavy, he held Zhu Xinzhi's arm hard, and helped Zhu Xinzhi up from the ground: "The mistakes I made do not need my son to bear. Believe it, this infamy should not be borne by you. ”

"This is the wish of the retainer." Zhu Xinzhi looked at him: "Please allow my father!" ”

"Do you know the consequences?" Emperor Xuanqing stared at him: "You are still young, there are still decades to go, and after a hundred years in the future, who will help you avoid these sufferings?" ”

Zhu Xinzhi still replied stubbornly: "Erchen is willing, even if he burns himself, he will never back down." Father, please fulfill your son! ”

He knelt down again.

Emperor Xuanqing's eyes were complicated, looking at him, as if he had known his son for the first time, his eyes were filled with strong pity and emotion. Since Yan walked into the palace, Zhu Xinzhi took Yan to shout for Pei Xie Tang, at that time, he had doubted the ultimate goal of his son just like the Manchu Dynasty. He has imagined countless things, and these days, he has been secretly struggling, and even resented Zhu Xinzhi, feeling that because of this son, his life's great achievements may be drowned out by this case.

But now, nothing has changed.

What has changed is the eternal reputation of the son. He took this stain off for himself!

Emperor Xuanqing let go of his hand, and his heart was as uncomfortable as turning over the river and the sea, but the prince, Chen Zhao, and Chen Ke next to him saw everything in their eyes.

The three of them glanced at each other, Chen Zhao nodded, Chen Ke immediately stood up and said, "Your Majesty, since the prince of Huai'an is willing to take responsibility for this matter, the minister thinks that this move is appropriate." ”

"Okay?" Isn't that more than just a proper word? Emperor Xuanqing was vaguely angry: "If it is appropriate for the prince of Huai'an to bear the charge, then the prince should also be responsible." As the prince of the East Palace, he doesn't think about politics all day long, he only knows entertainment! Prince, I ask you, what's going on with your East Palace lately? The crown princess has come to the CCP and cried several times. ”

Chen Ke didn't open his mouth, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he was immediately caught by Emperor Xuanqing at the catharsis point, and scolded angrily.

The prince's face was unhappy: "Did the crown princess come to the palace and cry?" ”

"yes. I've met you several times, and you can't even control your own East Palace, and I don't count on you for other things. Emperor Xuanqing showed no mercy.

The crown prince hurriedly suppressed his dissatisfaction and said cautiously: "Father, the son is also willing to take responsibility for the prince of Huai'an." As the prince of the East Palace, Erchen has not fulfilled his guidance and is willing to be punished with the prince of Huai'an. ”

"No, you don't." Zhu Xinzhi's calm voice sounded: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the prince of the country and the will of the people in the future of the country, and it is not appropriate for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to bear this kind of responsibility." ”

The prince's heart felt a little better, but after thinking about it, it was because of Zhu Xinzhi that he was scolded by Emperor Xuanqing, and he felt very annoyed by Zhu Xinzhi's opening. According to what Erchen saw, as soon as the fief was recovered, the title would be exempted, right? Xinzhi has done his best for the court for many years, and after his death, he is an example for the court, if he bears it all, it will inevitably make the courtiers feel cold. ”

Emperor Xuanqing returned to the throne and stared at him: "Take back the fief? ”

"Yes." The prince definitely replied: "If you can't calm the hatred in the hearts of the people, it's better to make a clear decree to the world, and the letter will make up for the mistakes and find out the truth!" ”

"What do you mean?" Emperor Xuanqing pondered for a moment, and his attitude finally eased.

Zhu Xinzhi nodded: "Erchen is willing to make up for his mistakes and find out the truth." As for the fief and title, it is up to the father to make the decision, and the son has no objection. ”

"Good. So be it. Emperor Xuanqing rubbed his eyebrows tiredly, leaned on the dragon chair, and was unprecedentedly haggard: "As for the lord of Tai'an, when the truth is revealed, he will declare the world again and return her innocence." ”

"Your Majesty is wise!"

When the courtiers saw that the matter had been settled, they all had more or less opinions, but they were not good to mention it again, and they all returned to their original positions.

After the court was dispersed, the courtiers came out of the Zhengda Guangming Hall one after another, Zhu Xinzhi walked last, Cai Minghe and Xie Yijiang surrounded him, lowered their voices and said: "Lord Wang, you are too stupid!" Where can such a crime be easily borne down? The prince has been wise for many years and has suffered countless efforts, just for these rebels, the prince has lost his life and is wronged! ”

"Since you are a minister, you should share your worries for the king." Zhu Xinzhi said lightly: "Master Cai doesn't need to say much. ”

"But ......" Cai Minghe was puzzled: "Lord Wang, there is obviously a better choice." ”

"Now that the situation is unstable, the Northern Wei Dynasty is eyeing the tiger, and after Yan returns to the Eastern Continent, the Northern Wei Dynasty will definitely be afraid. Tuoba Jin is a bold and ambitious person, and he will not be reconciled. As soon as one month, or as late as two months, he will definitely ask Donglu to hand over Yan in the name of eliminating traitors, and the imperial court will definitely not do so in order to show Zhao'an's determination. At that time, Tuoba Jin will definitely use this as an excuse to attack my north. Zhu Xinzhi chuckled and said: "The court needs to be united and stable, if you are afraid of infamy, you will make the people of the world doubt the king, not a real virtuous minister, nor a real worry about the king." ”

"Lord Wang." Xie Yijiang sighed: "If something happens in the north, can you still go to the northwest?" ”

"I can't go, there are still countless virtuous ministers in the Eastern Continent." Zhu Xinzhi looked very open: "Adults don't have to worry. ”

Xie Yijiang and Cai Minghe couldn't say anything more.

A few people walked forward, and Qiao Yuexi, the Chinese scholar, came to meet him, and after seeing Zhu Xin, he made a very formal bow: "The prince please accept Qiao's worship!" ”

Zhu Xinzhi did not avoid it and accepted his gift.

Qiao Yuexi stood up and said with great admiration: "The prince is a real national scholar, Qiao misunderstood the prince before, and he was offended, so he asked the prince to forgive him." ”

"I've received your gift, let's clear it." Zhu Xinzhi smiled slightly: "Only in the future, Qiao Shilang should be cautious in his words and deeds, accompany the king's side, and never make the same mistake." ”

Qiao Yuexi nodded seriously: "Qiao is taught." ”

After he left, Cai Minghe felt strange: "Lord Wang, what's wrong with Qiao Yuexi, why did he make such a big gift?" ”

Zhu Xinzhi told Qiao Yuexi about the fact that Qiao Yuexi had asked him many times before whether he had investigated Pei Xie Tang's case for selfish purposes, and had repeatedly offended him in the court and in private. At the end, he said: "This person is responsible, and he will correct his mistakes, which is really a blessing for the community." The imperial court has talents like Cai Shangshu, Xie Tingwei and Qiao Shilang, even without me, it will definitely be prosperous, I am very relieved. ”

Cai Minghe and Xie Yijiang gave up their hands one after another: "Your Highness has won the award!" ”

Several people went out of the palace all the way, and the endless words of confidants were obviously three people with a great age span, but they were like close friends for many years, and there was nothing left in their eyes only their family and country, and nothing else.

Zhu Xinzhi returned to Huai'an Palace, and Pei Xie Tang couldn't wait to greet him: "Lord, you have been in the palace for a long time. How's it going? ”

"It's all done." Zhu Xinzhi looked at her and said with a smile: "When I am busy for a while, I can accompany you in the mansion with peace of mind." ”

"Aren't we going to the Northwest yet?" Pei Xie Tang was puzzled.

Zhu Xinzhi's footsteps paused: "I'll talk about these things later." ”

Pei Xie Tang's heart immediately swelled up with a strong uneasiness, and he looked at him: "Is something wrong?" ”

Zhu Xinzhi put his hands on her shoulders: "Chengyin, I'm afraid I will wronged you in the future." I don't want to be the prince of Huai'an, if you follow me, you won't be able to enjoy the glory brought to you by the royal family, and you won't be able to enjoy the courtesy you should have as a princess. He relented and continued: "I made a mistake in the trial of the Tai'an County Lord's case, and I should forgive her sins, so I asked my father to let me bear the responsibility for this crime." My father has promised to take away my title and take back my fief, and from now on, I will be just an ordinary person. ”

"No, it's worse than ordinary people." He smiled bitterly: "If you don't go out in the future, try not to go out." ”

He looked at her worriedly, not wanting her to be hurt in any way.

Pei Xie Tang was already stunned in place.

She almost doubted her ears and suspected that she had misheard what Zhu Xinzhi said. He said that he would no longer be the prince of Huai'an, and Emperor Xuanqing decided to take away the title and take back the fief, and he wanted to bear the infamy of unjustly killing himself?

"It's not fair." Pei Xie Tang shook his head, his eyes were blank: "Lord Wang, it was not you who killed her, this is not fair to you." ”

"But I poisoned her." Zhu Xinzhi stretched out his hand, "These hands once served her poisonous wine." These hands once wrote a copy to convict her. I have to be held accountable for this. ”

He raised his eyes, there was heaviness and struggle in his eyes: "Cheng Yin, if you don't want to follow me, I can prepare a letter of resignation and send you back to the Xie family." You don't have to suffer with me. ”

Every word is spoken extremely slowly.

Pei Xie Tang became more and more stunned, her feet seemed to be rooted in the ground, motionless, like air-dried soil on the wall, let the wind and rain blow more and more vicissitudes, she repeated in a daze: "What did you say?" ”

"Don't worry, I divorced you, you won't be talked about by the world, only someone will say that you made a smart decision." Zhu Xinzhi even pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled: "Xie Tingwei won't blame you." ”

"What if I don't go?" Pei Xie Tang asked softly.

Zhu Xinzhi's eyes burst in an instant: "Then Zhu Xinzhi dares to assure you that in this life, what I have is yours!" ”

It's all yours!

Pei Xie Tang asked softly with tears: "It's all mine, so are you also mine?" Wherever I go, you will go with you, and never regret it? ”

"No regrets!"

"Really don't regret it? Even if I'm going to hell? ”

"Where you are, there is no hell." He said.

Pei Xie Tang looked at him and laughed very slowly, very slowly. She said: "You didn't abandon me when I was in the most difficult time, Lord Wang, you are a good person. But I'm not, I'm a bad person. ”
