Chapter Ninety-Seven: Fortune and Destiny
The strong man stepped down hard, and Su Zhiyuan's breathing became tighter and tighter.
More and more blood oozed from his forehead, but Su Zhiyuan didn't seem to feel the pain. Just laugh out loud.
The cell was filled with the smell of filthy blood, his face hitting the ground, and the smell of decay all around him.
The strong man looked at him and laughed as if it were a fist on cotton.
Then he dragged Su Zhiyuan up and frantically smashed his upper body with his fists.
The jailer was used to seeing these things, and turned a blind eye. Besides, this is not an ordinary person, this is a big traitor, watching the big traitor being beaten, who is not excited and happy in his heart!
Doesn't it usually say that there is a lot of power? Why are you in a cell at this time?
When Su Zhiyuan was beaten, there were all smiling schadenfreude voices around him.
"Look! Everyone, come and see, more than half of the people in our cell were arrested by this traitor. ”
"Look at him now, how embarrassed! Hehe! ”
"Such a person is embarrassed to say that he is the most powerful, and I don't know what kind of mentality. Look at the whereabouts of the emperor's abandoned son, "
"Su Zhiyuan is simply the biggest joke of the year!"
"......" Su Zhiyuan listened to all kinds of ugly words.
He doesn't seem to care about anything anymore, even if he is beaten, he is still like that. has no desires and no desires, and the usual appearance of teeth and claws is simply two people.
Of course, he has become the target of everyone's bullying these days. The easiest to bully him were the people in the same cell.
In the evening, the emperor finally came.
He broke everyone away and took Su Zhiyuan to the interrogation room, where there was no one and it was relatively hidden.
Su Zhiyuan had been beaten all over his body, and when he was dragged over by Chen Lin, the imperial guard beside the emperor, his whole body was trembling.
The nose is blue and the face is swollen, where is there still the high-spirited appearance before.
Su Zhiyuan didn't say a word, and always smiled when he saw the emperor. Said: 'Your Majesty, Weichen is fine. ’
"Su Aiqing." The emperor looked at him with a distressed expression
just looked at the emperor calmly and said, "What else does the emperor want to do now?" ”
"Aiqing, you can endure for a few more days. I'm going to have a sense of proportion. The emperor pondered, with a serious expression.
"The old lady hasn't been found yet, and many people have already found his underwear, and there is a lot of blood, and it seems that he will not survive. This matter is a little difficult. But if you believe me, this prison will get you out as soon as possible. ”
"Your Majesty, putting the charge of killing the old lady on the old minister's body is too heavy!" Su Zhiyuan clenched his fists, his expression was ugly.
"Then the Taishi is missing, what can I do? I can't do anything! I've searched the whole capital. He was a young man, and he was also a person who accompanied the emperor to work hard in his career. There are layers of dense around him, and it is impossible for something to happen at all. ”
"Now that it's all of a sudden, the Queen Mother is furious, and I can't help it. It just so happened that you had a holiday with the little master, so it was obvious that everyone blamed you for everything. I'm just following the trend. ”
"Anyway, Taifu already has so many human lives on his body, and I don't think such a human life is nothing."
Su Zhiyuan clenched his fists and wanted to stand up, but the imperial guard on the side directly took the knife out of its sheath and stood in front of him. The expression was grim.
He suddenly began to laugh maniacally, and said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that he has never been sorry for the emperor, even if his hands are covered with blood, he still hasn't been sorry for you!" ”
"Now that you speak like this, where are you putting me?"
Su Zhiyuan's muscles flared up, and there were rhetorical questions and unwillingness on his face.
The emperor looked at him like this, and his expression suddenly turned cold. said: "Mrs. Su thinks it's not okay at this time?" At that time, I remembered that you had promised. When I was a child, we grew up together, and you also said that you are willing to do anything for me in this life. ”
"So Weichen regrets it now, is it okay?"
The emperor pinched his waist and laughed, he felt that Su Zhiyuan was too ridiculous. Said: "What do you think, Taifu?" What questions do you have? As a courtier, it is only natural for you to do these things. You tell me you regret it? Do you still want the position of Taifu? If you want power and status, you have to go through me! ”
"Don't forget, Taifu, did I give you everything you have!"
“……”
Su Zhiyuan's expression was a little unclear.
said: "So Weichen just put forward some of his own opinions, is the emperor about to start getting angry?" In the eyes of the emperor, is Weichen nothing? ”
"Wei Chen naturally knows that he is a soft-spoken person, and everything he does depends on the emperor. But Wechen also has the right to ask. ”
The emperor was furious and said, "When didn't I let you ask?" But that's not a problem for you, you're against me! I have never done anything to be sorry for you. ”
"We've been friends since we were kids, and now it's just for you to take the blame first, and it's really annoying on the queen mother's side. She decided that you did it. I can only imprison you first, or she will do anything. ”
"The old lady and the queen mother have a relationship, this kind of thing is known, and the queen mother is naturally anxious."
After Su Zhiyuan said this, the emperor directly gave Su Zhiyuan a slap and said, "Enough!" Aiqing, have you said enough? ”
"You can say anything, I can complain when you are wronged here, but how can you say that about the Queen Mother?"
"Regarding the Queen Mother, this is my bottom line. When it comes to the Queen Mother, it is not a trivial matter. ”
Su Zhiyuan looked at the emperor and didn't speak for a long time, and then said with a wry smile: "Weichen naturally knows that he is a soft-spoken person, he doesn't do anything right, and he is always notorious. Fortunately, the emperor, as a Ming monarch, has never been affected by a villain like me, and now that I am in prison, the emperor must be a particularly happy move! ”
After saying this, the emperor's face became more and more ugly. Said: "What are you doing with such a yin and yang weirdness?" ”
"You can reproach on this matter for the time being, so that you can protect the child and Old Madam Su. Originally, the old people are all old and old, and you can't let all of you follow you, right? ”
Su Zhiyuan clenched his fists and said, "Your Majesty, do you mean to threaten me?" If I don't obey obediently, you will do something to Zhiyi and my old man? ”
The emperor sighed and said: "If it really doesn't work, it can only mean this, Aiqing has always been a smart person, I thought, you should understand this truth, don't know nothing like this, and look very stupid." ”
A stinging expression flashed in Su Zhiyuan's eyes, yes, he never imagined that the emperor would say such a thing......
"Without mentioning this, I just want to ask, when can I get out? The emperor told me that it would be about three days, but now it is the fourth day. I still haven't seen any measures from the emperor. ”
Chen Lin, the imperial guard, stood up and said indifferently: "Lord Su, please pay attention to your words, now you are talking to the emperor." ”
"When the emperor had a good relationship with his ministers before, he never told me what the specific boundaries between monarchs and ministers were. Once Weichen makes a request, then the emperor is a gentleman, and I am a courtier. ”
There is indeed some irony in this statement.
He has done so much for so many years, and in the end there is nothing?
Su Zhiyuan felt that he couldn't bear it, and he couldn't bear it! There is a first time and a second time for this kind of thing!
"According to this, is the emperor also ready to let the old minister die, so that he can also kill a traitorous minister? can also send the old minister to prison willingly. Such a plan to kill two birds with one stone is indeed only the emperor can make it. ”
When Su Zhiyuan said these words, his expression was very sarcastic.
"Oh, why do you say that?" The cordiality in the emperor's eyes simply no longer exists. In its place is an incomprehensible abyss and endless indifference.
"If the emperor thinks it's not like this, take Weichen away, I don't want to be offended." As soon as Su Zhiyuan said this, the emperor immediately shut up and didn't say a word.
"......" The emperor immediately stopped talking, but he showed his attitude or something.
That's the attitude.
Su Zhiyuan also knew that he had always regarded others as brothers before, and now he knew that if something really happened, he was a scapegoat.
And it's a scapegoat that no one cares about.
Su Zhiyuan was confused, and he felt that he didn't have much consciousness anymore.
When I woke up again, it was already the second day, and I could see the light coming through the window.
The people in the same room looked at Su Zhiyuan with each other, and they all knew that Su Zhiyuan went to see the emperor last night.
So at this time, I was a little scared. Swallowed saliva and said: "Master Su, we didn't bully you much, you don't want the wicked to sue first." ”
"We're dying in the first place, so one more crime is nothing. Hit you also admit it. But, you're going to get out, can you do something good and don't end us up in jail? ”
When he said these words, Su Zhiyuan didn't say anything, just looked at him. He said, 'I'm not going out.' ’
The man in the cell who usually didn't dare to speak, with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, came over. "What did you say?" The emperor has come to look for you, and you still don't go out? ”
The strong man scratched his head and said, "What's the matter with you, Taifu?" Why is it so miserable? ”
"......" Su Zhiyuan shook his head, why is it so miserable? In fact, he himself didn't know why this was the case.
It was as if all of a sudden, everything had changed.
Su Zhiyuan is not a fool, this time he can clearly feel that the last person the emperor wants to kill is not himself?
At first, he readily agreed. But when I went to prison, I realized that something was wrong.
What the emperor said at the beginning was that he would confess his guilt for the time being. Let him find out the case in prison, so as to clarify the affairs of the old lady.
But when he was on death row, he immediately realized that something was wrong.
Where is this simple prison? This is the person who specializes in the most heinous crimes, he can't believe it, he can't believe that the emperor really left him here?
Or is it a helpless move.
But soon, Su Zhiyuan knew that he was thinking too much, and it was the original appearance. To confess one's sins is to die.
The emperor now blames all the blame on the queen mother, such a person is the person who has been plotting for him since he was a child, and then grew up?
Even if Su Zhiyuan couldn't believe it, he believed it at this time.
He was still lifeless, and the people in the prison looked at him strangely. Because the emperor came here once, everyone didn't dare to be presumptuous.
It was the jailer who started the incident first.
They directly brought the rice to Su Zhiyuan and said, "Su Zhiyuan, it's time to eat!" ”
The jailer is more of a man of dogs.
In his case, the emperor's attitude has said it all.
The glutinous rice was thrown in front of Su Zhiyuan. Said: "The above has explained, Master Su is extremely evil and does not deserve to die for the time being, but he is a master in the palace, so he naturally has the ability to teach. So at this moment, Master Su took turns to live in a cell one day. ’
"It's also a good choice to educate these criminals in this way."
Su Zhiyuan said: "Your Majesty, I hope to beat me to death!" ”
"Hehe, the villain doesn't dare to say such things, and he doesn't dare to speculate on the meaning of the saint at will. Now I want to live my life in peace. As for what the emperor means, Su Dacai is the one who knows best. ”
The people in the cell next to him had been staring at each other with fierce eyes, and their expressions were very envious at this time.
There is still something to look forward to......
Su Zhiyuan is like this, it can be seen that he has been completely given up by the emperor. That's easy to say, everything is easy to say.
They can retaliate at this time! The emperor understood what he meant. In that case, then you're not welcome at all!
After thinking it through, everyone rolled up their sleeves and waited quietly.
"Your Excellency, why don't you start with us today? Promise to serve Su Zhiyuan well! ”
"We have the greatest hatred with him, let's go first!"
"Su Zhiyuan, hurry up and come here, I promise to let you have an accident, hahaha!"
The jailer naturally didn't care about these things, and said, "As long as you don't get killed." This life must be kept, and you have to measure the rest! ”
With that, the jailer walked straight away. He began to stand at the door, unable to hear or see anything, and didn't want to care about what was going on inside.
Su Zhiyuan was lying in the original cell, and the man with the sharp mouth and monkey cheeks sighed directly and said, "I'm afraid I won't be able to survive, Uncle Lin hurriedly gave him a hexagram." ”
It was only then that he noticed a gray-bearded man in the corner.
sighed and said, "No, no, Lord Su has a great fortune and can't die!" ”
The strong man looked at Su Zhiyuan angrily and said, "No matter what, he must die in my hands, you will never know how he tortured us in the first place......"
"Such a person is innocent of death, I am not a good thing, so I will use the most brutal means to kill Su Zhiyuan!"
Su Zhiyuan looked at him, but he didn't have any extra expression, and said, "Kill me early!" ”
After holding on to the faith and friendship for so long, it feels like everything has collapsed.
How long will this life last? If you are disobedient in life, is there still a problem with Zhiyi and the old lady?
