Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Intellectual, the Righteous, the Immoral, and the Incompetent

Xie Yu finished bathing, wore a crown, took two sets of jade from the room and put them on his waist, held the sword with one hand, and pushed open the door.

The little guy had been waiting outside the door for a long time, and respectfully led him to the front hall.

The house is not as deserted as Xie Yu's mind, maybe it is the bright lights on both sides of the corridor that give him a warm feeling, right?

When he came to the inner hall, he had his own servants open the door for Xie Yu.

Xie Yu strode in, and the husband and wife were seated in the hall, waiting for a long time.

Xie Yu gave each of the two elders a look, and the two also nodded to him.

Suddenly, there was a pop sound, which startled the princess who was seated.

Xie Yu's knees were fiercely on the ground, he put his left hand on his right hand, leaned forward, and raised his head to the ground without stopping... Grab the ears with your head.

"Ziqi, you are... What to do?"

Seeing Xie Yu's behavior like this, Mrs. Gong couldn't help but hide her surprise with puzzlement and worry in her expression.

"Ziqi is unwise and connived at Zhonggui's participation in the fun of dogs and horses. Ziqi was unrighteous, knowing that Lu Ming's banquet was a bit boring, but he still took Zhong Gui to danger. Ziqi is incompetent, Zhonggui is in the quagmire but can't save it, so he can only run out in embarrassment. Ziqi has no virtue, my uncle and aunt treat me like family, but I repay me with this!" Xie Yu's voice full of guilt came out with the sound of knocking on the ground with his head.

"You kid!" cried out the male with reproach in his tone. "How can a manly man, a scholar's body, make up for his mistakes by practicing his body in this way?

"Xie Yu is ashamed of his uncle and aunt! Uncle and aunt treat me like a parent, rest assured that Zhong Gui walks with me, and even more so that Zhong Gui learns with me... If I don't do this, I'm ashamed of heaven and earth..."Xie Yu did not stop because of the blame of the public boat, but intensified... For a moment, blood flowed profusely, seeping into the wooden floor of the hall.

"Hurry up, hurry up... Uncle and aunt don't blame you. Mrs. Gong got up from her seat and stepped forward to help Xie Yu, her voice trembled, and her words were full of distress.

Xie Yu couldn't stop his aunt from pulling him, so he stopped kowtowing... But in any case, he didn't want to get up from the ground, so he knelt on the ground.

"Hey..."Mrs. Gong sighed, knelt beside Xie Yu, and didn't want to return to the main seat.

"Uncle, aunt. Xie Yu raised his head and shook at the two elders, blood flowing down his forehead, through his eyes and the bridge of his nose, to his lips, and dripping on the ground.

But Xie Yu didn't pay attention to it, and he didn't care about the pain on his forehead... He just wiped his eyes and mouth, and said, "The one who is holding Zhong Gui hostage is a sect called Qingtian, and Zhong Gui is not in danger at the moment... I am willing to guarantee with my life, if something happens to Zhonggui, I will apologize with death!"

As he spoke, his head was about to slam into the ground again.

Mrs. Gong, who was kneeling beside him, promptly covered his forehead with her hand, and then pulled him up.

"Ziqi, don't do this again, my aunt won't be able to stand it!" Mrs. Gong's voice trembled a little, she was really distressed.

"Frightened my aunt. Xie Yu made a gesture to Mrs. Gong to show that he would not do this.

"That stinky boy has caused trouble since he was a child, and his abrasive temper is also a first-class absolute... With my eyes closed, I can think that it was this kid who dragged Ziqi and you to participate in this Rausch group martial arts. So, Ziqi, don't feel guilty... This kid is also to blame. "Gong lost the boat and sat on the main seat to comfort Xie Yu... But his tone and expression were clearly worried.

"Uncle, I guessed two of the reasons why this Qingtian held Zhong Gui hostage. "Xie Yu didn't take the words of the public boat... Because in his eyes, this matter is his own fault, the husband walks in the world, and if he dares to do it, he must dare to do it. If he continued to argue about this topic, he didn't know how long it would take, so he chose to cut to the topic.

"What is the reason?" Gong Yi Zhouzhou is also a smart person, and took Xie Yu's words... Of course, this is also the thing he wants to know most at this time.

"First, the people behind Qingtian colluded with the rebellion of the Liang Kingdom, and the purpose must be the cholera dynasty... When I was dealing with them, I discovered that they had a lot of wood mechanics that you had developed and invented yourself. From this, I deduced that there was a gap between the other party in this mansion... They've got a lot of wood machine manufacturing methods from you... Even the layout of Luoyi's city defense structure is well understood. Xie Yu paused here. "The reason why they want to hold Chung-kyu hostage is that they still have some wood-machine skills that are important to them that they haven't been able to get their hands on, so they are blackmailing you accordingly. ”

"You mean, they want me to trade them for the life of the crane slave with the wood machine?" "I did receive an anonymous letter a few days ago... Ask me to get in touch with them. ”

"Yes. Xie Yu nodded. This must be the letter they gave. ”

"And what about the second point?" asked the public as he nodded, thinking about how to deal with it.

"There are four other people who were arrested together with Zhonggui this time, and I think they are deliberately causing a shock in the DPRK and China, causing panic in the people of Luozhong... By the way, I would like to use this to blackmail you into cooperating with their follow-up plans. Xie Yu didn't hide it at all, and directly told his thoughts to the public.

"What plan, how to cooperate?" asked the public again. "What do they want to do? In the 800-year history of the Great Zhou Dynasty, can I still be disturbed by such a heretical sect?"

"Uncle, the court at this time is no longer what it was a few decades ago... The Son of Heaven is sick, and the incompetent prince is in power. Most of the military reputation has been wasted... It's all supported by the old ministers, but more and more ministers are dissatisfied with what the eldest prince has done, and they have begun to support the more capable third prince... In addition, there were many factions in the court, with the military attachés headed by the Marquis of Tongxian and the civil officials led by the Duke of Huitai... There is even a royal family with the title of national teacher. Under these large factions, small groups are subdivided, and they are intriguing day long... Previously, the Son of Heaven was pressing, and they did not dare to put the struggle on the table. But at this time, the Son of Heaven was seriously ill, and when the Master was traveling, they became more and more rampant!" Xie Yu explained to the Gongchuan boat. "Moreover, the princes are becoming more and more ambitious to gain more power... In this way, Qingtian is using the internal strife of the princes as a lever to leverage the rule of the imperial court!"

The public lost the boat and was silent when he heard this... He was thinking about it, but no matter what he thought, it was!

Why haven't you noticed... It's not even as good as a young man who is still crowning!

"Uncle, the authorities are confused, and the bystanders are clear. Xie Yu saw the idea of losing the boat and said.

"Do you have any ideas?" asked Xie Yu thoughtlessly, and Xie Yu immediately understood.

"Yes. He nodded.

"The plan will be calculated, and the turtle will be caught in the urn. ”
