Chapter 174: I almost cried when I scolded Emperor Yongle
"What did you say?!"
Emperor Yongle's face changed, and he gritted his teeth and said, "I have always been talented for the country and appointing people on the basis of merit, how can I ever use bandits as officials and corrupt the official style of the martyrs?!" ”
"Really?"
Yi Li sneered and said coldly, "Wu Kang, the prefect of Songjiang, do you remember?" ”
"Of course I do."
Emperor Yongle said without thinking, "In the winter of the eighteenth year of Yongle, he entered the Shihua with the third place in the Jiazi Tianlist, and I named him the prefect of Songjiang. ”
"Since becoming an official, Wu Kang has been conscientious, conscientious, fair, and loving the people like a son."
"At the end of last year, Li Guan, the governor of Liangjiang, also played, saying that Wu Kang was the first talent in the land of Liangjiang."
"You say, what kind of crime do I have?!"
"Oh, what a man who loves the people like a son."
Yi Li's eyes showed a cold murderous intent, "It seems that you are really blind and unattractive, and you are the emperor in vain." ”
"Appoint a courtier, or a local parent official, and don't even know his origin?"
"How do you know that Wu Kang was originally born as a bandit, and after becoming an official, he is still extremely vicious and unchangeable!"
Emperor Yongle sneered all over his face, obviously not believing Yi Li's statement that his upper lip touched his lower lip at all.
"Okay, you don't believe it, do you?"
Yi Li smiled and nodded, "Then I'll let you see it with your own eyes." ”
"How did that beast Wu Kang treat our family back then."
With that, Yi Li raised his two fingers and tapped them on Emperor Yongle's forehead.
Emperor Yongle, who was originally frightened and angry, instantly trembled like an electric shock after poking this finger, his face was expressionless, and his eyes lost focus.
"Emperor!"
Lu Yuan, who was in the bushes, said in horror, "Emperor, what's the matter?!" ”
"Don't worry."
Lingju said lightly, "This female ghost just used a secret technique to let the emperor see the memories she had sealed for many years. ”
"Memory? Like watching a movie? ”
Lingju was also confused and asked, "What is a movie?" ”
"Uh, nothing."
Lu Yuan waved his hand and said seriously, "Then Ju'er, can you help me see what the emperor is looking at now?" ”
"That's fine."
Lingju nodded, and immediately raised his two fingers and pointed them at the center of Lu Yuan's forehead and eyebrows.
A strong feeling of dizziness came from the devastating ground.
It made Lu Yuan feel lightheaded, his eyes were dark for a while, and he fainted directly.
When I woke up again, I was in the middle of a dark forest.
In the distance, swords and swords flickered, flames floated, and there were faint sounds of assassination and terrible screams.
Lu Yuan had doubts in his heart, and slowly walked out of the bushes.
Seeing the scene in front of me, my heart instantly panched up.
This place is the Yi family three years ago.
At this moment, the Yi family is being slaughtered and bloodied by a group of black-clad masked people.
The old people were beaten to death with sticks, and there was not a single intact bone in their bodies.
The children were thrown into the well and drowned, and the cries shook the heavens and the earth.
And the most miserable are the women of the Yi family.
They were gathered together to strip naked, unclothed, covered in bruises and trembling.
In the face of these dozen women, the masked people were inhumane and frantically invaded like beasts.
No matter how desperately they cried and pleaded, it only made the beasts more excited.
Lu Yuan was filled with righteous indignation, and his eyes were almost bursting with fire.
It was so ruthless and cruel to a family that had made great contributions to the imperial court.
This Wu Kang, the prefect of Songjiang, is simply a personal scumbag.
Suddenly, Lu Yuan glanced at it and noticed something.
A group of black-clad and masked thieves cared about abuse and slaughter, and they didn't even look at him.
Even if you walk in front of you, you just ignore it.
His presence was undetectable.
And there are two other people who are also undetectable.
It was Yi Li, who was standing under the tree about dozens of meters in front of him, and Emperor Yongle who was tied to the tree.
At this moment, Emperor Yongle's face was pale, and his whole body trembled violently.
Because he recognized the leader of the group of men in black.
It was on the Golden Palace that he praised and even praised Wu Kang, the prefect of Songjiang, who was a model for the ministers.
watched Wu Kang and his subordinates wantonly slaughter a group of innocent citizens.
Emperor Yongle was so angry that he gritted his molars, and his eyes almost erupted with fire.
"How can this be ......?"
"Beast!"
"Scum!"
In contrast, Yi Li was much more calm.
From beginning to end, he maintained an indifferent expression and a blank face.
This tragic scene has been watched every day by all these years.
Just for myself to deeply remember this unforgettable hatred, I don't want to forget the slightest detail.
So Yi Li can already do it, calmly facing this cruel past intertwined with blood and tears.
There is no sadness in my heart, only a strong hatred.
These two people seem to only have the miserable situation in front of them, and they don't notice their existence at all.
Lu Yuan touched his chin and thought for a moment, and then pondered.
The reason why these people can't see Yi Li and the emperor is because they are not real people, but only illusions that exist in their memories.
And the reason why Yi Li and the emperor can't see themselves is because the mana of Lingju is stronger than Yi Li.
In other words, they are now in the same place, but in a different parallel time and space.
On the surface, they are only a few tens of meters apart, but they are actually hundreds of millions of miles away.
Even, more distant than hundreds of millions of miles.
"My lord, that little girly has run away!"
A masked man came to Wu Kang's side and asked, "What should we do, do we chase or not?" ”
"Of course you have to chase!"
Wu Kang squinted his eyes and said coldly, "If you let her run away, the consequences will be unimaginable." ”
"I don't know what to do with the little girl, I don't enjoy the glory and wealth, so I have to find death by myself."
"Kill her directly, and don't let her see the sun tomorrow morning!"
After that, Wu Kang's subordinates set a fire, burning the corpses of the twenty-five members of the Yi family, as well as a huge mansion.
And they rode away on fast horses, like a group of Jiangyang thieves who killed people and set fires, and their playful laughter went straight to the sky.
"Do you hear that?"
Yi Li said indifferently, "The little girl in their mouths is me." ”
"In a little more time, I will be overtaken by them, killed by random arrows, and my body will sink in the stream."
"Your Majesty, do you want to go and see?"
"No need."
Emperor Yongle shook his head and said bitterly, "Girl, I already understand what you mean. ”
"It is my fault to let such a person who is full of evil and has lost his conscience serve as the parent official of Songjiang Land."
"I've made amends to you."
The cold murderous intent between Yi Li's eyebrows finally eased a little.
However, Emperor Yongle was still not released from the blood-colored cobwebs.
Instead, he stood with his arms crossed and said coldly, "Since you have admitted to this first charge, then I will not mention it for the time being." ”
"Now, I'm going to talk about your second count."
……
In the next half an hour, Lu Yuan could be said to have completely opened his eyes.
In this world, swearing is not an uncommon thing.
No one in the world scolds, and no one in the world scolds.
However, dare to point your nose at the emperor and scold.
Moreover, he is also the Yongle Emperor, the hero of the Ming Dynasty in the history of the Qing Dynasty.
This is absolutely appalling.
If I remember correctly, the last brave man who dared to accuse Emperor Yongle of his mistakes in public.
is also a famous university scholar under Emperor Jianwen, Fang Xiaoru.
Because he scolded too thoroughly, Emperor Yongle was angry and killed all the people related to him.
This benevolent brother has also become one of the few unlucky people in history who has been punished by the Ten Clans.
And at this moment, Yi Li scolded more ruthlessly than Fang Xiaoru.
In the words, eleven sins since Emperor Yongle ascended the throne were pointed out.
Moreover, she is not scolded like a street hooligan.
Every crime is to the point, and every word is fine.
For example, the Yongle Emperor was accused of ignoring the ancestral teachings of the previous emperor and reusing eunuchs, resulting in the suppression of loyal ministers.
For example, he accused Emperor Yongle of seeking the king with his ministers and his nephews with his uncles, and finally made Emperor Jianwen disappear mysteriously. Unfaithfulness and unrighteousness.
Emperor Yongle's face became more and more ugly, and when he heard the end, he directly lowered his head guiltily, almost shedding tears.
"Girl, don't say it, don't say it again......"
Lu Yuan on the side was secretly frightened.
Hatred, what a terrible thing.
In the three years since Yi Li was imprisoned, his hatred for Wu Kang has been painful.
Over the years, these hatreds swelled more and more, spreading to Emperor Yongle, who appointed Wu Kang.
Yi Li's understanding of Emperor Yongle is simply above that of a modern person.
Even if it is himself, it is impossible to explain the eleven charges of the emperor.
This is the Yongle Emperor who can be ranked in the top ten or even the top five in the history of Yangqing.
It's not the joke of the God of War of the Civil Fort.
"You can be so sincerely repentant, and it doesn't seem that you are a hopeless faint king."
Yi Li condescended at Emperor Yongle and said lightly, "In that case, today, I have the right to forgive you." ”
"I hope that in the future, you will take me as a warning and remember this lesson with me."
"Be a good emperor who truly appoints people on the basis of merit and serves the country and the people."
With that, Yi Li stretched out his finger and pointed it on Emperor Yongle's forehead.
The two flashed red light and disappeared without a trace in an instant.
"Huh?"
Seeing that in this vast world, only he was the only one left, Lu Yuan suddenly felt a little messy.
"How do you say just go?"
"That'...... What am I doing? ”
Lu Yuan's face was full of helplessness, and he shouted towards the sky, "Yi Li, Yi Li, you wait!" ”
"Take me with you! I haven't gotten in the car yet! ”
"Ju'er, Ju'er, can you hear me?"
"Can you get me out of here?"
He shouted for an unknown amount of time, shouting so much that his brain was a little dizzy, and before he knew it, he fell asleep.
After an unknown amount of time, Lu Yuan suddenly opened his eyes.
I found myself standing in the emperor's bedroom.
Lingju, Kraken, Liu Ninglu, and Yu Ling all stood behind him.
And the emperor lay on the bed unharmed, still sleeping soundly.
"This ...... What's going on? ”
Lu Yuan asked in confusion, "Why did we come back here?" ”
"Of course, Sister Lingju carried you back."
Liu Ninglu said with admiration on her face, "Brother, I really admire you." ”
"I dare to take the emperor to meet a female ghost with the strength of immortals."
"You're really not afraid of accidents."
"Uh...... Actually, I'm scared right now. ”
Lu Yuan scratched his head and smiled.
Then he thought of something, and hurriedly asked, "By the way, what about Yili?" ”
"I promised her that I had done it, and she still hasn't given me what she owes me!"
"Here."
Lingju was expressionless and took out a few envelopes from his arms.
The envelope was stained with bloody nail prints, giving off an ominous aura.
Lu Yuan hurriedly took it, opened the envelope and glanced at it carefully, and suddenly looked happy.
"Hahaha, good, good!"
"With these ironclad letters, he Li Guan can't live!"
At this time, Emperor Yongle frowned slightly and let out a low hoarse voice.
Seeing this, Lu Yuan hurriedly put the letter and list into his arms.
Tidying up the expression on his face, he stood in front of the bed with a serious attitude.
After a moment, Emperor Yongle slowly opened his eyes.
Seeing a large group of people gathered around him, he was suddenly a little confused.
"What's going on?"
"Aren't I in that ruined temple? Why did you suddenly return to the official residence? ”
"Broken temple? What a broken temple? ”
Lu Yuan pretended to be puzzled and said in confusion, "Emperor, you have been sleeping here all along." ”
"Yes...... Is it? ”
Emperor Yongle was suddenly confused, "Isn't it?" ”
"I snuck out with you, and I met a girl who died in vain."
"Nothing."
Lu Yuan shook his head like a rattle, "Emperor, are you having a nightmare?" ”
"Since they are all dead in vain, how can they still see it?"
"No, no......"
Emperor Yongle shook his head and looked at the kraken on the side.
"Hai'er, you give me a testimony."
"The three of us, obviously going to that broken temple together."
"As a result, you and Yuan'er both said that their stomachs hurt, and it was convenient to run out one after the other, right?"
"It's not."
The Kraken shook his head without hesitation, "I've been in the house just now, waiting for the prince to sleep." ”
"Suddenly, I heard a soldier report that there was movement in the emperor's house, and it seemed that he was talking in a dream, so the prince immediately took us to take a look."
"Emperor, are you having any nightmares?"
looked at Lu Yuan and the Kraken with bewildered faces, as well as the expressionless Ling Ling and Lingju.
Emperor Yongle's face was extremely complicated, and there were ten thousand question marks in his heart for a while.
Could it be that you are really old and confused?
Can't even tell the difference between dreams and reality?
If it was a dream, the sensations and sights just now would be too real and terrifying.
Until now, Emperor Yongle could clearly feel the severe pain left by being bound by the blood net.
But if it's reality, it's a bit too absurd.
myself, but I saw a female ghost who had been dead in vain for three years.
If you say this to anyone, you will definitely say that you have hysteria.
"Whether it's a dream or a reality......"
"I'll have to go see it myself!"
Emperor Yongle squinted his eyes and said in a deep voice, "Yuan'er, this Yangzhou Mansion is almost there." ”
"Early tomorrow morning, let's leave for Songjiang Mansion!"
"Matsue"
Lu Yuan pretended to be puzzled, "Where to do what?" ”
Emperor Yongle gritted his teeth and said word by word.
"Arrest corrupt officials!" (End of chapter)
