Chapter 231: The Past and the Confession
The Ministry of Officials.
As soon as Chu Chu came out of Xiaoyuezi, he was called back by Chu Liyan. The two came to the study, closed the door and talked.
Chu Liyan asked solemnly: "Chu Chu, for my father, I asked you, something has been wrong with the King of Haichuan County recently, what does he want to do?"
During this period of time, it was rumored that Mo Ruxue drowned and committed suicide, and Xiao Yongyan also fell off a cliff and died in order to find her, and his bones were gone.
The concubine couldn't stand the blow and couldn't afford to get sick.
Xiao Yongyan had no intention of going to politics, and while he was busy taking care of the concubine, he sent people to look for King Luo everywhere.
Xiao Yongyan has not been to the court for five or six days, and the people in the court are panicking.
There are even more outrageous rumors, saying that Xiao Yongyan's past few months in power have all relied on Xiao Yonghan to handle the government, and as soon as Xiao Yonghan left, Xiao Yongyan was cowardly and could not cope with it at all.
That's why he did his best to find Xiao Yonghan, if Xiao Yonghan didn't come back, this Yan Kingdom would be over.
Chu Liyan disdained these gossips, and today he scolded those people who chewed the root of their tongues in the court!
I didn't expect someone to say that many of those rumors came from the royal family, and even the king of Haichuan County did not deny it.
Chu Chu picked up the teacup and sat elegantly on the chair, and smiled faintly: "What is the father anxious about? There is something wrong with the king of the county, and the daughter thinks that there is nothing abnormal about him." "
"On the contrary, my father is a little worried, just do my duty as a courtier, and the sky of this Yan country can't fall. "
"It's better for my father to protect himself, talk less and do less, and be a bystander. After all, the throne of the Xiao family is still in the hands of the Xiao family, and we should not get involved in the internal affairs of the family. "
"If you are not careful, you may be doomed! Isn't the lesson of my father's previous exile enough?"
Chu Liyan said in disbelief: "Chu Chu, what are you talking about? It is our duty to be loyal to the monarch and love the country, and the old man will definitely not tolerate those chaotic ministers and thieves!"
When did the daughter he taught carefully since childhood become like this?
Chu Chu covered his lips and chuckled: "Hehe, loyal and patriotic? You exposed that Mo Xu was loyal and patriotic that time, but what was the result? Our Chu family was almost beheaded by the whole house!"
"The cunning rabbit is dead and the lackey is cooking, if the Yan Kingdom wants to change the sky, no one can stop it. Why doesn't your father want to open some of them? What did he do to you all these years of being a king?"
"Sending you to exile on trumped-up charges, and then summoning you back for some reason, and making you grateful to Dade for not being able to. "
"Shut up!" Chu Liyan slapped the table angrily: "Where did you learn these rebellious words?"
"Our Chu family has been loyal and good for generations, even if the emperor wants the old man to die, the old man will never complain!"
"Chu Chu, you are so disappointed in your father!"
Although Chu Li's words are not good, Chu Chu is not afraid of him at all.
She smiled and said, "Father is stupid and stubborn, do you want my brothers to accompany you?
"Listen to his daughter's advice, the father just wait and see, and don't do anything. That's not infidelity, is it?"
"The fog will eventually lift, and whoever ends up in that position is the wisest thing to do. "
Chu Liyan looked at Chu Chu steadily, as if he only knew her today, is this still his smart and polite daughter?
Xiao Yonghan said that Chu Chu had changed, but he was quite unconvinced at the time, and ridiculed Xiao Yonghan more, saying that Xiao Yonghan was fascinated by Mo Ruxue and changed his mind.
It turns out that the person who has become a real Chu Chu has become difficult for him to accept.
Chu Liyan didn't know why, and suddenly remembered Zhang in the past.
If what Xiao Yonghan said is true, is there another hidden story about Zhang's past years?
"How did Zhang die in the past? Chu Chu, you tell the truth to your father. "
Hearing Chu Liyan's question, Chu Chu's hand holding the teacup paused, his eyes were confused, and he fell into memory: "Brother Zhang in the past...... I've almost forgotten what he looks like. "
"I remembered, hehe, simple-minded and well-limbed, in order to avoid being killed by him, I killed him. "
Chu Chu said it lightly, killing someone is as simple as pinching an ant to death for her.
"Although people were killed by me, these are all killed by Mo Ruxue!"
"If I don't kill him, I'm the one who dies." You can't blame me for this, you can only blame him for being too stupid, and he has more than enough success and more failure!"
"The two assassinations he planned failed, and in the end he was designed by Mo Ruxue, if I didn't kill him, Mo Ruxue wouldn't spare him. "
Chu Liyan looked sad, thumped his feet, and sat down weakly on the chair: "Wrongs! It turns out that what King Luo said is true. "
"I grew up with you in the past, how can you bear to do it?"
"Even if he is caught by Mo Ruxue and handed over to the emperor to kill, it is better than you killing him. You're the one he's talking about!"
"He deserved to assassinate the emperor, King Luo and Princess Luo, and to be captured and executed. Anyone can kill him, but you can't. "
"You know better than anyone else how you were treated in the past, and your conscience will not hurt?"
Chu Liyan fell into great pain, and his friend's dying entrustment was still vivid, but he still lived up to his trust after all.
In his life, he was loyal and patriotic, and the only thing he did was to make perjury in Dali Temple for Chu Chu.
Chu Chu didn't have the slightest sadness on his face, and still looked calm: "Death is dead, what else can I do? My daughter has become like this today thanks to Mo Ruxue, but unfortunately I haven't had time to take revenge, she actually died?"
"But I heard that she was heartbroken by King Luo and committed suicide by throwing herself into the water, she really deserved it!"
"The marriage that I grabbed will not be happy after all, if it weren't for her, Xiao Yonghan and I would have lived happily together, where are these things behind?"
"So in the past, my brother's debt can be counted on the head of the Mo family. Mo Ruxue is dead, the people of the Mo family are still there, have you forgotten how they harmed you in the first place?"
Chu immediately glanced at Chu Chu with disdain: "If Mo Xu harbors evil intentions, the emperor will decide, why should the old man interfere?"
"If I also have the intention of framing me, what is the difference between me and Mo Xu?"
"The people of the Mo family have been under house arrest for almost a month now, and their glory is already yesterday's yellow flower, so I don't need to fall into the stone again. "
Chu Chu laughed sarcastically.
"Only a literati like my father would talk to a villain about the way of a gentleman. Since the words are not speculative, the daughter said goodbye. "
"Father is waiting to see how his daughter makes the people of the Mo family suffer retribution one by one!"
After Chu Chu got up and saluted Chu Liyan, he turned around and walked out.
When he walked to the door, he stopped, turned around and said, "Father, daughter suggests, for the future of my brothers and the glory of the Chu family, you had better pretend to be sick and rest at home for a while!"
After speaking, he left, leaving only Chu Liyan's helpless sigh and remorse.
How did a good daughter become like this?
Rebellion is a capital crime!
