Gu Mingchao was so angry that he didn't know what to do, and he hugged the pillar under the corridor and gnawed, the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, the more sad he became, and finally squatted at Xie Songzhao's feet, like the raccoon slave raised by Xiao Zhaorong in the palace.

Xie Songzhao said: "I didn't say it was a national funeral, what are you angry about?" Besides, the crown prince and concubine have not been selected for a long time, and it is difficult to calm the hearts of the courtiers. ”

Gu Mingchao said: "They had to let the emperor serve the mourning period before, but they said they would change it!" Now they are discussing how to choose a concubine. You're not angry? ”

Xie Songzhao stroked the top of his head and said: "You are now doing things before Your Majesty and the Crown Prince, you must not talk like this, Yin Ge Lao already has the idea that if you are not of my race, your heart will be different, you must be more cautious in your words and deeds." How is the crown prince choosing a concubine? He just brought me a wife at the end of the mourning period, and I had to kowtow and thank me. ”

Gu Mingchao said: "How can this be?!" Didn't he rule the world with mercy before? ”

Xie Songzhao said: "How is it not merciful, he saw that my house was miserable, so he specially chose a wife for me." How can I not be grateful for Tear Zero? Even if he sends a housekeeper now, I have to keep it for it. ”

Gu Ming was dumbfounded: "Can it still be like this?" ”

Xie Songzhao said: "Naturally, this time I killed Lu Sicheng just to tell him that the king wants to be powerful, and the benevolence of a moment cannot be guarded for thousands of generations." ”

Gu Ming said: "He did it." There is no stubbornness. But I think Yin Beichen must have an idea! ”

Xie Songzhao said: "Elder Yin Ge has high hopes for him, and wants to teach him successfully, it won't be like this, there is no benefit in ascending to the sky in one step." The stability of the DPRK is the most important thing. ”

Gu Mingchao said in a low voice: "They only think about stabilizing the situation, but they don't care about other ...... Commoners. ”

Xie Songzhao laughed in a low voice: "People? When did you learn duplicity? In the Ming Dynasty, the situation was not stable, so how could the people live? ”

Gu Ming said: "I read a poem - Xing, the people are bitter; Death, the people suffer. What should this be explained? ”

Xie Songzhao said: "In the Ming Dynasty, before the end, no one was willing to take the initiative to choose to be a slave to the country. We, the courtiers, have to fight, and the monarch can't let go. We can still have a place to live in the dead country, but the lord will accept it, and it will be infamous for eternity. ”

Gu Ming said: "Just for this? ”

Xie Songzhao sighed and said: "In the Ming Dynasty, I was born in Zhoutu and enjoyed all the glory and wealth, so I should die for it." ”

Gu Ming said: "What about me?" What should I do? ”

Xie Songzhao said: "Your country has abandoned you, I hope you do what you want to do, whether it is to go to the end of the world with a sword, or to go up and down in the sea, I will support you." Do you want to go? ”

Gu Mingchao said: "I don't know, I don't think I'm going to be here and there." But I don't know where there is anything else in the world. ”

Xie Songzhao touched the top of his hair and said, "The coming day will always be clear, don't worry." ”

Tsing Yi Temple.

"Hey-ha!" A dazzling sword light swept by, and both the Southern Envoy and the Chen Envoy stopped, for fear that the knife would come at them.

Cao Qingyun said: "What should a weak scholar do? Grandpa won't embarrass you. In the past. ”

Yesterday, Lu Mu, the southern envoy who went into the water in the Ming Dynasty, said: "We are noble envoys, who are you, so bold and reckless?" Don't kowtow to the old man and admit his mistakes! ”

Cao Qingyun looked at him, plucked his ears uncertainly, and said, "Grandpa didn't hear clearly, you say it again." ”

Ma Fei, another southern envoy with the mud, hurriedly said: "The general is angry, this person can't talk more than his brain, and the general doesn't care." ”

Lu Mu scolded: "Flattering villain! Yesterday I groveled to a proton, there is still Lin Xiang's demeanor, and it also lost the face of my envoys! Today you have to kneel in front of this so-called wine and meat monk slave...... Then you, then you can come up and lick the hemorrhoids! I have to ask this bald donkey to admit his mistake to this official! ”

Ma Fei couldn't wait to give him two slaps to make him sober up, and said, "Heh, in this case, everyone follows me, Lord Lu, please seek justice for yourself here." After finishing speaking, he threw up his sleeves and left, Chen Envoy was busy with his own affairs, and he didn't have time to see this idle and lively, so he left in a hurry.

Lu Mu took two steps back and said, "Little Shami, go and ask the host to come over!" This wine and meat monk is going to commit murder! ”

Cao Qingyun laughed when he heard it: "Oh, I don't think your eyes are very good." I am Jiaoxue's guard Cao Qingyun, but I am not the wine and meat monk in your mouth! Today you were the one who stood in my way, but I was asked to apologize, which makes no sense! ”

Lu Mu was stunned and stepped back, and Cao Qingyun approached and said, "My lord, if you want to be powerful, you shouldn't find me." ”

Lu Mu swallowed his saliva and said, "I am an envoy of the Southern Dynasty, an envoy for the friendship between the two countries, you are a general guarding the pass, what can you do to me?" ”

Cao Qingyun gestured with a knife on the side of his neck, and said with a smile: "If you don't kill you, I'm afraid of dirtying my knife." He put the knife in his sheath, turned around and walked away cleanly.

Lu Mu was satisfied with his answer, and felt more and more that he was better than Su Qin, and compared Zhang Yi with words, he tidied up his clothes with satisfaction, and walked away with confident steps.

Lobby of the Criminal Department.

Du Hejing listened to their various different scolding words, and his ears were calloused, if it wasn't for the above to let them quarrel first, he really wanted to beat them out with sticks, so clean and clean.

Lu Mu's face was red and his ears were hot, and he still wanted to continue to scold: "At that time, I saw that Xiang Yu and Gu Mingchao were full of blood, you said that Gu Mingchao saved people, and I also said that I saved people from the girl!" She was brought back by Lord Lu anyway! ”

Ma Fei pointed at his nose and scolded: "You really have a pair of eyes for nothing!" I'll take care of you! If it was Hou Ye who killed the adult, what did he call someone to do? There are all the human and material evidence, but you have to slander people with red lips and white teeth in this public court, where do you put my face in the Southern Dynasty?! ”

Lu Mu stepped forward and said, "You cheap slave who betrays the country for glory!" You don't want to be for the country, you want to find the murderer for Lord Lu, but you are bent on climbing high branches! You...... You! ”

Ma Fei said: "What is a cheap slave? Lord Lu, please be clear, you and I are at the same level! Lord Lu was unfortunately killed, you don't want to bring the murderer to justice, but you think about pulling people into the water all day long! What are your intentions?! ”

Lu Mu felt that his mouth was not his own, and said, "I have seen it today!" Such a powerful reversal of black and white! You refer to the deer as a horse and confuse right and wrong, what crime should you be guilty of?! ”

Ma Fei sneered: "I reversed black and white? I don't know if it was the one early this morning, reprimanding others for murder for no reason! Dare to ask Lord Lu, how precious is your life? Is it worth someone to kill you with their own precious knife? ”

Lu Muhui suddenly remembered that contemptuous look, and said angrily: "Ma Fei! You talk about him left and right, is it because you have a weak heart? Yes? Let me tell you, you helped others to disregard Lord Lu's life, and when I go back, I will definitely join you like Your Majesty! ”

Ma Fei slapped his hand away and said, "Lord Lu! What a strange thing you say! Now we are seeking justice for Lord Lu, but you are calculating your colleagues in your heart! Lord Lu, is this your way of being an official? This is the friendship between you and Lord Lu? Also, why are we in the court of the Zhou Dynasty now? Are you so disregarding Lord Lu's life? ”

Lu Mu was just about to speak, but Du Hejing counted the time and knocked on the shocked wood and said, "Two adults, this official will examine the prisoner according to your words." Let's go back to Tsing Yi Temple to rest for the time being. ”

Zhuang Ji'an said: "This is the power of the official? The public says that the public is reasonable, and the mother says that the mother is reasonable, and she is dazzled. ”

Du Hejing spit out the tea leaves and said, "Can you still be stumped by this case-solving Yama?" ”

Zhuang Ji'an smiled: "Adults laugh at me again, those are all names given to me by youth and ignorance, don't call them adults." This case is not difficult, but the difficulty lies in ......," he said, pointing to the sky.

Du He said: "Hmph, I can still tolerate these, dare to touch my bottom line, I naturally won't agree." ”

East Palace.

After Chen envoy Wang La finished the greetings on the process, he went straight to the point and said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the lower officials sent an envoy to the Zhou State on the order of the regent, so that the two countries can live together amiably for a long time. ”

Seeing the crown prince's head, Wang La continued: "His Royal Highness the prince, the officials are here for three purposes, one is to mourn the Duke of Wu Ning, the second is to guard the border of our country Li Wucian, and the third is to ......."

Gu Mingchao, who was at the bottom, pinched his robe uncontrollably, and Yin Beichen glanced at him.

"The third is to negotiate the supply of silver. In recent years, there have been frequent natural disasters in our country, and most of the people have no harvest, and our lord regent has opened a warehouse to distribute grain, His Royal Highness the Prince, my country really can't take out so much money. We recently got the news that the prince of our dynasty has been made a marquis in Yandu, and the regent said that Yandu is very good, and he came back and said that he might have to suffer with everyone, so he said that he didn't need to go back. Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, please consider what the Majesty has to say. ”

Gu Mingchao let go of his robe, his heart was cold, and Xie Songzhao's words echoed in his ears again - "Your country has abandoned you......"

Yin Beichen said: "Lord Wang, everyone has difficulties, this was originally negotiated by our expedition to Xihou, and now it is the mourning period of Duke Wuning, so how can I open this mouth with Hou Ye?" ”

Wang La said: "My lord, this is not right, if you are a minister, then the thunder and rain are all the grace of the king, how can the Hou Ye be dissatisfied?" ”

Yin Beichen said: "My lord's words are unreasonable. Our lord has always ruled the world with benevolence and righteousness, and has never disregarded the wishes and efforts of his subordinates. My lord, my dynasty rules the world with filial piety, if filial piety acts like this, how do the people of the world think of my lord?! My lord, this matter will be discussed later. ”

Wang La nodded and said: "My lord's words are also reasonable, and I don't want to be strong, so the lower official's request to bring back Li Wucian and General Li may be granted?" ”

The prince said: "Lord Wang, this palace has not seen your talents for many years, I cherish it very much, this palace is very curious about the customs of Chen Guo, you might as well sit down and eat a cup of tea, and talk to this palace." As soon as these words came out, officials of all sizes came out one after another, leaving only Wang La and the prince sitting opposite each other.

Wang La bowed and said, "Your Highness, but what's wrong with the lower official's words?" If so, please forgive me. ”

The prince said: "The words of this palace are true, Chen Guo has not had such a talent for many years, what is the official position of the envoy in Chen Guo?" ”
