Chapter 170: The Daughter of the Pit Father
Hearing the sound, even Fu Tao and Chu Ying were stunned, and then saw Chu Qiongxi push open the door and walk straight over.
"Father, my daughter has come to greet you, I didn't expect even the Confucian saint to be there."
As she spoke, Chu Qiongxi bowed slightly to the two of them, with a warm smile on her face, as if yesterday's events had nothing to do with her.
"See Her Royal Highness the Princess." Lian Fu Tao bowed his hand slightly towards Chu Qiongxi.
Chu Qiongxi hurriedly helped Lian Fu Tao up and said, "Even the Confucian saint doesn't have to be polite. ”
Looking at the indifferent look on Chu Qiongxi's face, even Fu Tao couldn't help but wonder, Chu Qiongxi's expression was obviously a little abnormal.
Knowing the daughter Mo Ruo's father, he didn't have to think about it to know that Chu Qiongxi was here to help Lu Yanqing intercede, which made Chu Ying frown.
At this time, although he was arguing with Lian Fu Tao, he was just paving the way for profit.
And if Chu Qiongxi opens his mouth to intercede at this time, it will not only disrupt his plan, but also let Lian Fu Tao see through his tricks.
The reason why Chu Ying only said Lu Yanqing's sentence in the letter was to let Lian Fu Tao negotiate with him in a state of half-understanding.
Immediately, I only heard Chu Ying cough twice, and wanted to take Chu Qiongxi away: "Qiongxi, you go down first, I have something important to discuss with Lian Rusheng; If you have anything, consult with me in the afternoon. ”
But Chu Qiongxi directly provoked and said: "Father, since it is all for me and Master Lu, why do you need to discuss it separately?" ”
Chu Ying's brows furrowed even deeper, his daughter has been studying sages since she was a child, and she is also quite scheming, how could she lose her mind in this matter, she obviously hinted at her last night.
was silent for a while, and Chu Ying couldn't drive Chu Qiongxi away directly, so he could only retreat and say: "Then you just listen to it on the sidelines, don't interject." ”
"Yes, Father."
With that, Chu Qiongxi came to Chu Ying's side and quietly listened to the conversation between the two.
Without being stunned any longer, Chu Ying returned to the topic and said: "Lian Rusheng, do you have any objections to what I just said?" ”
Lian Fu Tao said: "What you said is indeed reasonable, I don't deny this, but this is not the fundamental factor that contributed to yesterday's events; If Yan Qing hadn't been summoned to the palace as a young master, or if the thief hadn't been left in the palace, this wouldn't have happened. ”
"What are you weirding about?" Chu Ying's tone froze.
"The grass people don't dare."
Even Fu Tao didn't dare to say it, but in fact, he just wanted to express such a meaning.
Since Chu Ying ordered Lu Yanqing to serve as the young master, he had obviously heard about the grievances between Lu Yanqing and Ge Mingjian.
But Chu Ying knew that the two sides had grievances, but he still had to keep Ge Mingjian in the palace, wouldn't this be a problem for raising tigers?
Lian Fu Tao continued to excuse Lu Yanqing and said: "Your Majesty, Yanqing has a meritorious escort, so that Her Royal Highness the princess will not be poisoned by that thief; Even if he shared a bed with Her Royal Highness the princess later, it was only a last resort, at most it was only a crime of improper escort, and the death penalty was obviously inappropriate. ”
"That kid took away my daughter's virginity, and if I don't sentence him to a car split, I will give you a chance to collect the body, which is already considered a great mercy! Lian Confucian saint, I hope you don't know how to lift. ”
Chu Ying's mood is not incomprehensible even to Fu Tao, if you think about it from another perspective, even Fu Tao is afraid that he will put Lu Yanqing to death on the spot.
But the reality is that Lu Yanqing is his proud disciple of Fu Tao, and no matter what, even Fu Tao can't let Lu Yanqing be sentenced to death.
"Father, I think what Lian Confucian Sheng said is reasonable, you are really a bit presumptuous in sentencing Master Lu to death."
Before Fu Tao and Chu Ying could continue to argue, Chu Qiongxi on the side suddenly spoke, which made Chu Ying angry enough.
Obviously, you were robbed of your chastity, and your father is here to help you get justice, but you say that your father is acting rashly?
"Father, if Master Lu doesn't seriously injure Ge Jianming's thief, not only will I fall into the hands of that thief, but Master Lu's life will also be lost; Lu Shi is a great Chu Confucian saint, and he is burdened with the great Chu national fortune, if the new Confucian saint is not born in the great Chu, it is the passage of the great Chu national fortune, so in my opinion, Lu Shi's approach is completely correct. ”
Chu Qiongxi analyzed quite calmly, and even Fu Tao hurriedly echoed:
"Her Royal Highness the princess is really discerning, and I admire and admire it."
Chu Ying held back a sentence for a long time and said: "Child, are you stupid, that kid has taken away your chastity!" ”
Chu Qiongxi replied lightly: "How can something like chastity be compared with Da Chu's national fortune?" Use my chastity to protect Da Chu's luck, this is what I should do as a princess; If you kill Lu Shi, won't it cause the risk of losing the fortunes of Dachu? What is the point of my sacrificial chastity? Do you say it's your father? ”
"Her Royal Highness the princess understands the righteousness, which is really my great luck." Even Fu Tao echoed again, and Chu Qiongxi's ideological consciousness even made Fu Tao ashamed.
As soon as these words came out, Chu Ying was speechless.
As the king of a country, Chu Ying naturally wants to put Da Chu Sheji in the first place, so Chu Ying naturally can't say no;
But if it is said yes, it is equivalent to a compromise in disguise, not to mention what benefits are sought from it, and if it is not good, Lu Yanqing will have to be acquitted, this is not a question that Chu Ying can answer at all, Chu Qiongxi can directly give Chu Ying to the general now!
"That's it." Chu Ying shook his head, showing a look of helplessness, and then looked at Chu Qiongxi with a wry smile and said, "You really deserve to be my daughter." ”
Chu Qiongxi smiled slightly, "It was taught well by my father." ”
Chu Ying didn't plan to go around in circles with Lian Fu Tao, and this cheating father daughter didn't know how to say anything if it went on like this, so he said directly: "If you want me to spare that kid's life, it's not impossible, but you have to promise me a few conditions." ”
Hearing this, Lian Fu Tao couldn't help but look scolded, it seemed that this was the emperor's true intention, and Lian Fu Tao had to deal with it with a spirit of twelve points: "Your Majesty, please speak." ”
Chu Ying put forward the condition: "I hope that an exam can be held once a year in Yuxi Academy, and only students from Tianzi Academy will participate, and the top 20 students must enter the Guozijian." ”
"Your Majesty, forgive me." Even Fu Tao hurriedly refused, and then explained: "It's okay to take the exam, but we can't force students to enter the Guozijian, these must follow their personal wishes, and we have no right to interfere." ”
Although there are many students in the academy who want to take a half-official position in Guozijian, not everyone's ambition is like this, and Yuxi Academy does not have the slightest right to interfere with the aspirations of students, which is an iron law in the academy!
After a long groan, Chu Ying bowed slightly, "It's not impossible to do this, it's a big deal." ”
Even Fu Tao didn't say much about this, this kind of thing is not under the control of Yuxi Academy.
"Then the second condition, your Yuxi Academy must elect a Confucian saint to reside in the imperial court!"
As soon as Chu Ying's words came out, even Fu Tao's pupils suddenly contracted......
