140 The Plan of Discord: The Bitter Drama is Unfolding

This young man with a woman-like face knelt on the ground as soon as he saw Li Chongrun, Li Chongrun asked him to get up, but he refused to do anything, Wu Yanji felt a little embarrassed, so he stepped into the main topic and ordered the young man to state his grievances.

The boy's thin shoulders trembled slightly, and the corners of his mouth and ragged placket hinted at what had happened to him.

"The villain was originally a musician in Luoyang City, and was coerced into the palace by Erzhang by various means, saying that he was still engaged in vocal music-related affairs after entering the palace, but he never thought that Fengchen Mansion would be such a place, it was really unsightly...... The little one was unwilling, and was lynched by Erzhang many times, and later Erzhang actually used the villain's wife who did not pass through the door as a weight to force the villain to do something unspeakable...... The villain had no choice but to endure the humiliation and steal his life, but a few days ago I overheard someone say that in order to cut off my mind and back road, Erzhang had already secretly murdered my fiancΓ©e, and the villain's parents were seriously ill because of this, and they are still on the sickbed, I am afraid that they will not be able to survive......" The voice was intermittent and choked several times.

Li Chongrun was young and vigorous, and he was angry after hearing this, and Wu Yanji was also shocked and angry.

"Such filth could have been born under the feet of the Son of Heaven! I didn't expect these two to be so arrogant, it's really unbearable. Li Chongrun said hatefully, and sent out two "actually" in a row.

The young man who came to avenge him was still in tears, kept bowing, and his forehead hit the brick surface with a crisp sound one after another: "The villain is really cornered, I heard that His Royal Highness the Imperial Sun is jealous and hateful, and he is honest and generous, and today he risked his life to escape here, and please ask His Royal Highness to be the master of the villain and rescue the villain from the boundless sea of suffering......"

"These two pickled things not only defile the deep palace, but also brutalize the innocent so much, forcing Liangwei to-" Wu Yanji was silent, almost about to continue.

Li Chongrun's mood fluctuated greatly, and he was very excited: "Why don't you say it?" What can't be said? Lang Lang Qiankun, can you still let these ghosts and ghosts act recklessly? What a national prince, it's simply a shame for my Da Zhou! also complained that the emperor's grandmother was old, and it was inevitable that she would be deaf, and she let such a villain be confused! The imperial grandmother should not let these demons make waves in the palace, ruin their own reputation, and let future generations laugh at them. It's a pity that such a wise and strange woman as the imperial grandmother shouldn't be so late in the future......"

"His Royal Highness! Don't talk about it, extinguish the fire! Wu Yanji changed his name in front of the person, and while stopping, he slowed down his voice a little: "This matter can be big or small, I'm afraid it's not something we can manage, it's easier said than done...... Erzhang's power in the palace should not be underestimated! ”

"The imperial grandmother is dizzy and can't see people clearly, those of us who are juniors should stand up for her and clear the king's side!" Li Chongrun had an awe-inspiring expression on his face and asked: "Why are you so cowering, you are afraid of wolves and tigers, Yanji, why do you bother to grow the ambition of others!" ”

"Your Royal Highness, please have mercy on the poor villain, please! When the villain thought of his innocent and tragic wife, his heart ached like a thousand arrows...... We are all the people of the Great Zhou, and we are all your people! The young man added another fire, "You are the hope of my future Da Zhou, the object of admiration of all the people, although the villain is as humble as an ant, it is not a pity to die, but the villain also hopes to die a more valuable death, ask His Royal Highness the Emperor to be fulfilled!" ”

"Yanji, I don't know about this, now that I know about it, I can't sit idly by, let me pretend that I didn't see anything, I didn't hear anything, I really can't do it!" Li Chongrun didn't wait for Wu Yanji to respond, and said softly to the person who was still kneeling on the ground, "You get up, I know about your affairs, and I will definitely give you justice!" ”

Wu Yanji felt despised and underestimated, and his voice suddenly rose: "Am I the kind of person who is timid and afraid?" No matter what His Royal Highness the Emperor Sun does, I will help you, and you and I will share weal and woe! What's more, it's all for the community, you and I are duty-bound! ”

The young man of unknown origin instantly stopped his tears, and at the moment he raised his head, he showed an imperceptible yin owl smile: "Thank you two highnesses for your great kindness!" It's hard to repay the villain's broken bones! ”

After placing the young man, Li Chongrun and Wu Yanji fell into trouble, and the witness testimony was available, but it was almost impossible to bring down the Zhang brothers in this way, although they were one of the emperor's grandsons and the other was the prince who inherited Wu Chenghei, they were still weak in front of the Zhang brothers, especially Li Chongrun, who had not returned to Beijing for a long time, and his foundation was very shallow.

"We need to get someone to help." Wu Yanji scratched his head and said.

"To whom? My father? Li Chongrun knew very well that his father, the crown prince Li Xian, did not have the courage to participate in anything with twists and turns, and he frowned and said: "If it is possible, it would be good if Uncle Xiangwang and Aunt Taiping could stand with us." ”

However, this is only a beautiful idea.

Wu Yanji immediately shook his head and denied: "The Zhang brothers were sponsored by Princess Taiping, will she dismantle the stage by herself?" Besides, His Royal Highness King Xiang, he has been protecting himself for a long time, and he will not give up his efforts because of this little thing...... Chongrun, we are afraid that it will be difficult to sing alone, or not, or don't mix it? ”

Only then did the two young people realize the embarrassment, but Li Chongrun was extremely good-looking, and comforted himself: "I went to ask to see the imperial grandmother, just tell the truth, it's a big deal that her old man is unhappy and scolds me, and she won't do anything to me...... But if I want to be that shrunken turtle, what face will I have in the future, and how will we respond to the musician? If he goes back on his word and suddenly leaves, he really has only one way to die, I don't kill Beren, but Beren dies because of me, can't be like this! Never ......"

After discussing it for a long time, there was no feasible and effective method, but the two of them never dreamed that what was being staged in front of Empress Wu Cao at this time was another diametrically opposite drama.

The Zhang brothers had tears in their eyes, kneeling at the empress's side on the left and right.

The empress was surprised: "What is this?" My Gorou and Rokuro, what's wrong? ”

The Zhang brothers were still crying aggrievedly and refusing to say much.

This made the empress more and more anxious, and promised: "You just have to say, I still have a big matter, and I will support you!" Whoever is in trouble with you will not be able to get along with me! I will not spare anyone! Speaking of which, the empress was also angry.

The Zhang brothers glanced at each other, and Zhang Yizhi took the lead in speaking: "Our brother has nothing to say, only ask Your Majesty to give us a death!" I have been able to serve Your Majesty in this life, and our brother will die without complaint! Ask Your Majesty for your favor! ”

The empress's face changed suddenly: "Gorou, what are you talking about?" What kind of stupid words is this! How could I take your lives? She felt worried, in her twilight years, loneliness followed her, and the Zhang brothers were her only spiritual sustenance.

Zhang Changzong also spoke: "Your Majesty! You have treated me and my fifth brother well, this is a blessing that we have cultivated for several lifetimes, but I am afraid that we will not be able to bear it anymore. Although you are very tolerant of our brothers, and our brothers have always been cautious, there are always some people who regard our brothers as a thorn in their side and want to get rid of them all the time! Our brother lives a humble life and has nothing to do with letting others misbehave, but if your majesty is distorted and criticized because of our brother, then we will really be to blame even if we die! ”

Zhang Yizhi was very satisfied with the sixth brother's words, and his expression became even more sad: "As Liulang said, the existence of our brother is a mistake, Your Majesty, don't ask more, otherwise it will become our brother to divide His Majesty's flesh and blood, this big crime and I really can't afford it anymore!" ”

The two brothers kowtowed in unison: "Please give your majesty a death!" ”

The empress had a feeling that she had been emptied, and her mind was blank: "I will never watch your brothers being bullied, I forgive you for your innocence. I really want to see what kind of hearts those who fantasize about changing the world! Is their conscience devoured by wild dogs! ”

The Zhang brothers left a gap that was neither long nor short, no one spoke, and no one sobbed, but the tranquility made people even more anxious.

The empress's thin arm was on Zhang Yizhi's shoulder: "Gorou, can you bear to abandon me?" Or did you never believe in me and didn't give me half of your heart? ”

Zhang Yizhi replied in fear: "Your Majesty, this is a big misunderstanding!" In our brother's heart, you are everything, is everything, except for you, there is nothing else in our hearts, everything our brother does, whether good or bad, success or failure, is for you, only for you! ”

Zhang Changzong echoed: "You have given us everything, without you, we are useless, and our existence will have no meaning." ”

The empress became more and more easily moved, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and her other hand stroked Zhang Changzong's cheek, and after a while, she said: "Although I have the world, I only have you!" My shoulders, neck and knees are sore again, rub them for me! The gentle voice was full of warmth.

The Zhang brothers slowly got up and kneaded for the empress.

"We're all dependent, so what else can't we say?" The Empress asked again.

Zhang Yizhi was puzzled: "But it is about His Royal Highness the Imperial Grandson, and our brothers really don't dare." ”

Zhang Changzong, who was rubbing the empress's shoulders, felt a violent tremor under his palm, he stopped moving, and he didn't even breathe anymore.

"Chongrun, you mean Chongrun!" The Empress felt hopeless.

"Forget it, just if it didn't happen, Rokuro, you go and send the boy away and give him some silver."

"Okay." Zhang Changzong pretended to nod and was about to go out.

The Empress called him: "Come back, Rokuro! After a moment of contemplation, he made a decision, "No one is allowed to go!" My royal children can't be indulged! Let him in, I'd like to hear about it. ”

Zhang Changzong deliberately showed a dilemma.

The impasse has made the atmosphere even more tense.

Zhang Yizhi sighed: "That's it, Liulang, call him in, after all, he is the only witness, and His Majesty has the right to know everything." ”
