The first group of people to see the guilty edict spread the news with incredible shock and excitement of "I am the first to know".

Then, hundreds of people flocked to the city gates.

"Is it a crime?"

The people who did not know how to read, and those who did not make it to the front, shouted loudly.

"Yes, it's a guilty edict, Your Majesty really issued a guilty edict. The man in front shouted in response.

"Hurry, read ...... quickly," the people in the rear couldn't wait to urge.

"The upper is the edict, deeply repenting of the past, saying: I am a cool virtue, and I inherit the unification. The intention is to renew with the world, and return the old ancestors with it. Unexpectedly, he relied on non-people, which led to the destruction of Chuzhou City........ (Note 1)

“......... May 16, 37th year of Yuanjing. ”

The whole edict of self-sin was sprinkled with nearly a thousand words, and an old Confucian student standing in front of the notice board finished reading it in a tone and frustration.

Among the ordinary people, some people understood, but more people were still in the clouds, and they only confirmed one thing: Emperor Yuan Jing had indeed made an edict!

"Is it because of the case of the Chuzhou massacre?"

"Your Majesty, you have issued an edict of guilt, that is to say, what Xu Yingong said yesterday is all true, right?"

"Those rumors smearing Xu Yinluo in the market are all false, right?"

The people are most concerned about this matter, although they trust Xu Qi'an in their hearts, but there are also many rumors that smear Xu Yingong yesterday, and they are very serious.

They desperately need a positive piece of information to shatter those rumors.

Moreover, in the eyes of the Li people, the status of the imperial court is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, if the imperial court admits this matter, coupled with Xu Yinluo's prestige, then there will be no doubts, no matter who says anything in the future, they will not believe it.

The old Confucian pressed his hand, and the crowd immediately quieted down, he nodded with satisfaction, shook his head and sighed, and said:

"Your Majesty issued an edict against himself, admitting that he connived at the slaughter of the city by the king of Zhenbei, Xu Yingong, what he said yesterday was true. If it weren't for Xu Yingong pulling out his knife in anger, the unjust case of the slaughter of the city in Chuzhou would be difficult to show, and Lord Zheng would have died without turning a blind eye. ”

Cheers and shouts erupted together, and there was a lot of uproar.

"Dafeng can produce a Xu Yingong, which is really favored by God. ”

"It's a pity that Xu Yinluo is not an official now. ”

"What's the matter if he's not an official, he's still a hero of Dafeng. ”

As for the scolding.........

"Faint Monarch, this Faint Monarch, aren't the people of Chuzhou my Dafeng people?"

"Cultivating for twenty years is a faint king, conniving at the king of Zhenbei to slaughter the city, this is a tyrant. ”

"Sooner or later, Daebong will die at his hands........"

The scolding soon subsided, and was suppressed by the surrounding officers and soldiers, but the people still cursed quietly, or cursed in their hearts.

And the officers and soldiers did not really want to do anything to these people who committed the crime of great disrespect.

The emperor's edict is itself an admission of mistakes, and it is a channel for the people to vent and abuse.

...........

Guozijian.

Originally, the sound of reading echoed loudly, and Guozijian, one of the holy places for students in the world, was full of emotional rebukes and angry scoldings at this time.

Scholars scold people, but they are much more varied than ordinary people.

"It's not a pity that King Zhenbei died, but I didn't expect even His Majesty to ........ Faint monarch, this is the image of the country, how can he be so nonsense, the prison is correct, the prison is not aware of it in advance?"

"There is no male son in the Manchu Dynasty, and I have to study the books of the sages and sages so hard that I want to be in the company of this group of scholars who have no backbone?"

"They have to allow the silver gong to cut the two thieves and turn this matter upside down, so they dare to resist Your Majesty, bah, it was me, and they grabbed the ground with their heads on the spot. ”

"Although the martial artist violates the ban with his strength, when he encounters such a thing that loses his conscience, only the martial artist has the ability to turn the tide. ”

"Alas, in the future, this pen will be recorded in the history books, and the reader will lose face. It's a pity that Xu Yinluo is not my Confucian scholar. ”

At this time, a young student ran in and said excitedly, "Ladies and gentlemen, I just heard good news. ”

All the students in the courtyard looked at it and frowned.

Although the emperor issued an edict to admit the matter and did not let the loyal ministers be wronged, the incident itself was still a black tragedy and was not worth excite.

The young student greeted everyone and said excitedly: "I heard that today, Zhao Shou, the dean of Yunlu Academy, appeared in the court hall and said in front of the princes and His Majesty that Xu Yinluo was his disciple. ”

What the?!

All of a sudden, the atmosphere in the courtyard exploded, and the students showed excited and excited expressions and strode up to meet them.

"Xu Yinluo is a student of Yunlu Academy?"

"Dean Zhao's disciple, this, this statement is true?"

Several students' faces turned red, and they pulled the man's sleeves tightly and asked loudly.

At this time, if I say it's a joke, I'll be beaten......... The man muttered in his heart, nodded and said, "This matter is rumored in the officialdom, and it is not my groundless words." ”

"Hahaha, today's succession of happy events, when the big white is floating, go, drink and go. ”

"I don't read today, indulge once. ”

For a long time, Dafeng Shikui was born as a martial artist, which is a thorn in the hearts of all readers, and every time he mentions it, he is both emotional and admired, and sighs.

It is believed that when future generations look at this period of history, they will inevitably ridicule this generation of readers. Doesn't the reader care about this posthumous name?

Now, knowing that Xu Qi'an is a student of Yunlu Academy, not to mention how happy he is, although there is a dispute between Yunlu Academy and Guozijian, it will not be cared about in the history books.

They are all Confucian scholars.

The students of Guozijian called their friends to go out for a drink.

The eunuch reported the incident to the sacrificial wine, and angrily reprimanded: "Nearly half of the students in the Guozi Prison have gone out to fool around, and today is not a day off." ”

The white-haired old sacrificial wine, snuggling up, said expressionlessly:

"Today's court tells us that the righteous are more helpful than the unjust, and the saints do not deceive me. ”

The meaning of sacrificial sake is not to be the enemy of the masses, and when faced with the general trend, it is necessary to give up the rules appropriately and make forbearance........... The prisoner touched a soft nail and frowned in thought.

.........

Huaiqing Mansion.

Huaiqing, who was dressed in a plain white palace and was as green as a waterfall, sat on the side of the desk, looked at Lin'an in a red dress, and smiled lightly: "He has never disappointed, hasn't he." ”

Fu sighed: "After this incident, Your Majesty's reputation and the prestige of the royal family will drop to a low point. ”

The goose egg face and peach blossom eyes were framed, with a sweet smile, and said righteously: "If you do something wrong, you have to let it, although I don't like to read, but Taifu taught us that knowing mistakes can improve a lot." ”

It's also a blessing to be a simple person with a headache.......... Huaiqing despised his sister in his heart, and he wouldn't say it on the surface.

It's not to give Lin'an face, but she must blow up her hair, and then fly over and peck her face.

Huaiqing was annoyed.

Smart people don't make trouble for themselves.

Seeing that Huaiqing didn't speak, Lin An raised his snow-white chin, shook the intricate jewelry on his head, and said coquettishly:

"Some people shout righteousness in their mouths, saying that their father has done something wrong, and as a result, when they need your help, they immediately stop talking. ”

As she spoke, she looked at Huaiqing with proud eyes, saying that I won this game, and I finally pressed Huaiqing once.

Framing refers to taking Li Miaozhen and Hengyuan into the imperial city and taking them in.

Huaiqing smiled.

After Xu Qi'an killed the two thieves, Lin'an swept his chest, and the whole person regained his liveliness, and because she harbored the "rebel thief" the day before yesterday, with this participation, her thoughts were clear.

Otherwise, the heart will definitely hold on, hold it for a long time, and it will not become a knot, but this is a simple heart, and it will be somewhat clouded.

Huaiqing deliberately "ceded" this credit to Lin'an, which is the reason.

However, Huaiqing is not a sister who is so tolerant that she allows Lin'an to provoke and is indifferent, and said with an approving smile: "Yes, you are much more responsible than your prince brother." ”

Lin An's face suddenly collapsed.

"I'm home. She got up in a huff.

The ring was clanging, and a touch of pale yellow came into Huaiqing's eyes, which was a jade pendant with a moist texture.

The cold eldest princess's eyes paused slightly, and she frowned: "What is this piece on your waist?"

Lin An stretched out his little white hand, dragged the jade pendant in his palm, and explained:

"This is a jade pendant given to me by the dog slave, the texture and workmanship are unsatisfactory, but this is carved by his own hands, you see, there are so many flaws, if you buy it, it is definitely not like this. ”

With that, she ostentatiously lifted her face, revealing her graceful chin.

Maybe you didn't even notice that there was a little sweetness in the words.

Huaiqing's plain white pretty face, in an instant, seemed to have a storm flashing, but it quickly returned to its original state, and said lightly: "Get out, don't get in my way here." ”

"I'm leaving, huh!"

framed the atmosphere, and felt that Huaiqing stopped her, just to say the last sentence, to save face and suppress her.

She turned around unhappily, twisted the waist of the water snake, and the hem of her skirt flew away, and walked into the inner hall.

After the red dress left, Huaiqing angrily took out a small seal from his arms and fell to the ground as if angry.

After a while, she got up again, picked up the hem of her skirt, and examined it closely, and found that a small opening was missing in the corner of the seal.

The two good-looking eyebrows immediately wrinkled, a little distressed.

...........

Stargazing Tower, in a hidden room.

Xu Qi'an took off the yin nang, opened the red knot, and two green smoke came out, turning into the appearance of Que Yongxiu and Cao Guogong in mid-air.

With the appearance of the two souls, the temperature in the room dropped by a few points.

This yin nang is specially made by Li Miaozhen, and it doesn't need to depict a formation to summon the ghosts of the newly deceased, because Yin Nang has its own formation.

Daomen is also good at making magic weapons, although compared to warlocks, one is a side hustle and the other is a specialty.

Cao Guogong and Que Yongxiu died not long ago, and they were still in a state of stupe, answering questions and having no thoughts.

Xu Qi'an looked at Cao Guogong first: "How did you know about the massacre case?" ”

Cao Guogong said indiscriminately: "After Que Yongxiu returned to Beijing, he secretly met with His Majesty, and soon after the incident, I was summoned by His Majesty to inform him of the matter. ”

"What did he tell you to do?"

"Fully cooperate with him......." This includes being a "platter" in the court, helping him spread rumors, and so on.

Cao Guogong only learned about the massacre after the fact, well, the value of this ghost has plummeted.

Xu Qi'an turned to look at Que Yongxiu and said, "Do you know the whole story of the city massacre. ”

Que Yongxiu replied with a dumb expression: "I know." ”

"Tell me the whole story. ”

“........”

Ah, the IQ is too low, and you really can't exploit such a loophole, and you have to ask it question by question......... Xu Qi'an looked down on him and asked calmly:

"Do you know that the King of Zhenbei cooperated with the head of the Earth Sect and the high-grade wizard of the Witch God Sect?"

"Yes. ”

"Emperor Yuan Jing already knew about this?"

"The slaughter of the city was originally planned by His Majesty and King Huai........."

Xu Qi'an was not surprised by this answer, because he had already understood from Wei Gong's hint that Emperor Yuan Jing was most likely one of the masterminds behind all this.

"Why slaughter the city instead of starting a war?" asked Xu Qi'an.

"It's not safe to take too much blood and take too much time, and if the war starts, there will be a lot of uncontrollable factors in the plan. Que Yongxiu replied.

"What is the real purpose of Emperor Yuan Jing's plan for this?" Xu Qi'an asked again.

He has always felt that Emperor Yuan Jing was too indulgent to King Zhenbei, and even couldn't wait for King Zhenbei to be promoted, which did not conform to the mentality of an emperor, and he was also a suspicious emperor.

The word "martial idiot" can really erase the suspicion and jealousy of a deep emperor in the city?

King Huai said that if he was promoted to the second rank, he would be able to check and balance the prison and make the royal family have a real pillar of the town. Don't be too jealous of Jian Zheng and Yunlu Academy. This is also His Majesty's wish. ”

That's not enough, do you believe it?

Que Yongxiu's next sentence made Xu Qi'an's face change slightly.

"Your Majesty, I want to refine the Soul Pill. ”

Soul, the soul pill is Emperor Yuan Jing to refine? This is not right, the Golden Lotus Dao Leader is not very sure to say, does the head of the Earth Sect need the Soul Pill?

Therefore, one of the brothers wanted a blood pill and the other a soul pill, so they took wool from the common people.........

Daoist Jin Lian said that the role of the soul pill is to enhance the original spirit, act as an alchemy material, refine the magic weapon, repair the unsound soul, and cultivate the spirit of the instrument......... These words alone do not seem to be enough for Emperor Yuan Jing to risk the condemnation of the world and sacrifice the people of a city.

Of course, the Soul Pill is only one of the gains, and the Blood Pill can help the King of Zhenbei to impact the Great Perfection.

However, the beneficiary was the King of Zhenbei, and in comparison, Emperor Yuanjing's harvest was not enough for him to take this risk and make this decision.

When a person's gains are not proportional to the risks he takes, things will never be as simple as they seem........... Xu Qi'an pinched his eyebrows.

He didn't think about it for too long, and continued to ask, "Where is the Soul Pill?"

............

Note 1: The first sentence at the beginning is the edict of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and the follow-up is the beginning of Chongzhen's edict.

PS: Tomorrow, I will collect the rewards of the alliance leaders in the past few days. Thanks for that, it's too late today, card point update.
