081 Chest wrap in the court

Previous Chapter

I experienced the helplessness that I had never experienced before, in order not to affect anyone, I could only choose to bear it myself, I only remember that the wind was so cold at night, I was so tired from crying, I walked back to the room alone to cover the quilt, and forced myself to sleep.

I've really gotten to the point where I don't have a choice, and to put it nicely, I've lost all initiative.

But my psychological quality is not good, I didn't sleep all night, and the next day I accompanied Zhou Wei to the morning court with two dark circles under my eyes, and I kept yawning, and I was in tears the whole time.

Just as the morning was nearing the end, I had already thought about running back to bed at the speed of a 100-meter sprint, but I never imagined that at this time, there was an accident.

Du Shangshu, who had never spoken much, suddenly took a step forward and said in a speech: "The emperor still remembers, not long ago, you asked us to be a witness, and you are determined to work hard and serve the country wholeheartedly. And now there is an opportunity to rejuvenate the country and stabilize the country. ”

Zhou Wei was really interested when he heard it: "You said come and listen." ”

Du Shangshu said unhurriedly: "Since ancient times, the crime of treason and rebellion cannot be punished, and now, the emperor has a person like this by your side, I don't know what the emperor should do?" ”

Hearing this, my heart shook violently, I looked up at Du Shangshu, only to see him smiling calmly, I took a deep breath, looked directly at him and waited for him to continue, but I was afraid that he would continue.

Hearing this, Zhou Wei was also anxious, and his face changed and said: "Du Aiqing has something to say, there is no need to beat around the bush, who are you referring to?" ”

Du Shangshu smiled, looked like a humble gentleman, and slowly looked up at me: "It is the Qing father-in-law next to the emperor." ”

The moment he said me, I wasn't too surprised, it seemed to be expected. My eyes met his, and I stared at him for a few seconds without shying away from it, and did not speak.

On the contrary, Zhou Wei next to me snorted coldly, pointed at me and asked Du Shangshu: "You said it's him?" ”

"What the minister said is true. According to the records of the Qing father-in-law's palace book, his real name is Li Guan, his family lives in Lijia Village, Lanhe Township, Huanzhou, and he has two parents and a younger brother at home, but the minister sent someone to investigate, but his family said that Li Guan had died of illness in his early years, and the grave was already overgrown with weeds. The people who sent him took out the portrait of the Qing father-in-law and recognized them, and they all said that they had never seen this person. ”

After finishing speaking, Du Shangshu looked at me again: "I don't know how Father-in-law Qing explained this matter?" ”

The corners of my mouth curled into a sneer: "If you don't want to set up a blame, how can you check my details?" Du Shangshu, I respect you wholeheartedly for the Lord, it doesn't matter how you slander me, but I will not tolerate your coercion of my family! ”

He smiled calmly: "Father-in-law Qing is really flexible and eloquent, no wonder he has won the heart of the emperor." ”

I looked at him coldly and didn't speak again, this Du Shangshu rarely speaks, I'm not very familiar with him, but at least I haven't formed a relationship, let alone any loopholes in front of him that are worthy of his attention, why did he suspect me? Could it be that he was the one who deceived Nangumo?

I vaguely feel that this matter is not so simple, he should not be the end, there is probably someone else behind it.

Zhou Wei had a gloomy face, and asked at this time: "You won't rely on this alone, what else?" Say it all at once! ”

"The emperor is wise, and the ministers naturally dare not make assertions based on this alone. This second point, the minister implored the emperor to ask someone to verify the body of the Qing father-in-law, and then you will naturally be clear, however, the minister suggested that it would be more appropriate to invite a big palace maid to inspect it. ”

It was like a blow to my heart, and it hurt. He has already said this, although he didn't say that I was a woman, but he could hear everything in his head.

I only heard a sigh from the audience.

I seem to have lost the courage to shout all of a sudden, unless I have the seventy-two changes of Sun Wukong, I will definitely die if I verify the right body.

I unconsciously looked at King Mu under the stage, he was standing in the middle of the high-ranking ministers, half-bowing his head at this time, as if he was thinking about something.

I forced myself to keep my mind steady and not to look at him again, lest anyone else notice anything.

Zhou Wei was taken aback by Du Shangshu's words, but he didn't believe it, he stared at Du Shangshu: "You mean he's a woman?" ”

"Please ask the emperor to verify his identity." Du Shangshu insisted on requesting.

"I hope it is as you say...... Qingyang, go! ”

I hesitated for a moment, and was about to move, when I found that Du Shangshu was next to the statue, and an elderly palace maid walked out and made a salutation to receive the order.

It's over, it seems that he has been prepared for a long time, and even the palace maid has arranged it in advance, and he doesn't even leave me the opportunity to buy it.

In this way, I was completely in my original form, and in full view of everyone!

I suddenly knelt down in front of Zhou Wei: "Your Majesty, the mutilated body of the slave and maid......" I said this, and didn't continue, first, I really didn't know how to make up this lie, and second, I didn't want to completely cut off my back road, in case my identity was revealed one day, the sound of slapping my face would not be so loud.

However, he couldn't stand my appearance in Zhou Wei's eyes, and saw that his eyes when he looked at Du Shangshu were a little sharper, and he said in a cold tone: "If you want to test it, you can test it, but today's matter, if you have a word that is false, I will copy you all over the door!" ”

The smile on Du Shangshu's face froze instantly, he never expected that this matter would be so serious, and even a mistake would even affect the danger of harming the family. He may have guessed that the emperor would have the heart to protect me, but this kind of undisguised protection was really unexpected.

Zhou Wei is amazing! My heart is a little calmer, no matter who it is, I have to have a point in my heart when I hear the emperor say this, no matter how stupid he is, he will not have a hard time with the emperor, and it is not too bad for him to stop here, I not only understand the direction of the enemy, but also get a buffer opportunity to come up with a countermeasure.

However, why didn't I expect that Du Shangshu returned to his original expression not long after the panic: "The minister remembers the emperor's words." Please also ask the emperor not to take care of the situation when the time comes. ”

I was so frightened that I stiffened and didn't have time to react at all, Zhou Wei glanced at me at this time and asked me to go down with them.

He's so confident!

Now I seem to have ridden on the back of a tiger, and I am in a dilemma, I can't run away and can't retreat.

When I was helpless, I couldn't help but look at King Mu, but I found that he was still half-bowing his head as he had just now, looking at a certain floor tile on the ground, I don't know what he was thinking so distractedly?

I was invited down in this way, and came to the room at the back of the palace, where the great palace maid was polite to me on the surface, but in fact every word was irrefutable.

"Father-in-law Qing, please take off your shirt by yourself, the slave's hands are not light or heavy."

I deliberately changed the topic and chatted with her, I just wanted to ask what benefits Du Shangshu gave him, but it was really not good, I could do it ten times more than him.

But this great palace maid was completely untempted, and even deaf to my words, and only wanted to take off my clothes.

The big palace maid saw that I didn't have any intention of taking off my clothes, yes, how could I let her see it if I wasn't crazy?

But she didn't expect that she couldn't wait in the end, and said: "Father-in-law Qing has offended", and actually recruited a group of palace maids to forcibly rip off my clothes~! It's really hard!

Back on top of the main hall again, I can be described as disgraced.

The chest cloth on my chest was stripped off by them, although my chest was relatively flat, but at this time the clothes were not thick, and no matter how flat it was, there were two small hills, so I could only hunch over my chest and walk back to Zhou Wei with my head down.

When the palace maid presented my breast cloth in front of Zhou Wei, the ministers below were in an uproar, and discussions came and went.

I fell to my knees, and by this time I was like a murderer with all the money he had stolen, and there was nothing left to say.

Zhou Wei frowned, looked at me and then turned his eyes to look at the chest cloth, he was silent.

Seeing this, Du Shangshu became more and more energetic, and he immediately began to talk loudly: "Your Majesty, a woman can fish in troubled waters as a eunuch for several years, with bad intentions, it is enough to see that there must be someone behind her, and the minister has ......."

"Qingyang ......" Zhou Wei didn't pay attention to what he said at all, his eyes kept looking at me, and suddenly called me at this time.

My heart trembled, and I slowly raised my eyes to look at him: "The slave is here." ”

"You say!" He looked me deeply in the eye and seemed expecting me to explain something.

I moved my lips, I didn't know what to say for a moment, to this point, no matter what reason I made up, it was useless, and at this moment Zhou Wei's eyes made me not want to lie to him.

I just said in the end, "Slave damn it......"

At this moment, Zhou Wei seemed to be stabbed somewhere, and I saw that the muscles on his face twitched~ twitched.

He slowly looked away from me, and I noticed that his eyes had lost all their temperature like a sea of ice.

"I lost...... "I lost," he never admits defeat, and said these three words in front of hundreds of officials today.

He used to gamble on dice and play games and sometimes lose, but usually he would be thunderous, and he would not end up if he didn't win, but this time he was surprisingly quiet, as if he had lost in his heart.

Du Shangshu continued: "Your Majesty, please be courteous to the ministers, the ministers not only know that she is a woman, but also know her identity. The minister said that she was not accused of collaborating with the enemy and treason. ”

Zhou Wei looked at him with a somewhat vacant gaze and did not speak.

"The minister's words inevitably have a discrepancy, so the minister found a witness, can the emperor summon him up?"

Zhou Wei was expressionless, did not agree, and did not object.

When I heard the witnesses, the first thing I reacted to was Xiao Du, but Xiao Du's loyalty was not much worse than Yue Fei, even if he was caught, he would not confess me.

Because of this, it is highly unlikely that this witness is Xiao Du. But if this witness had been replaced by someone else, I would have almost no chance of surviving today.

Soon the witness approached from the blinding light of the temple door, and when I saw those familiar eyes, I knew that I was going to die today.
