Chapter 94: Covered in wounds
The first rays of sunlight in the morning suddenly broke through the clouds and shone on the roof of the Imperial Palace, reflecting a fantastic brilliance.
Confucius, King Qingding, Qin Hao and Qu Fu stayed awake all night, gathered outside the Douji Gate, and sent people to Qingqiutai from time to time to inquire about the news.
"What the hell is this kid Nan Yantian doing? The movement is so slow, even if it is a turtle, it will come back at this time!"
Like an ant on a hot pot, King Qingding was pacing in place with his hands on his back, his face full of anxious expressions.
Last night, he and Confucius left Qingqiutai and didn't go back at all, but kept guarding outside the Douji Gate, waiting for news.
You must know that Ji Jin's situation at the beginning was almost exactly the same as Zhang Fan's now, and he was left alone by Su Chan in Qingqiutai.
What is even more reassuring is that Emperor Qin ordered Ji Jin Lingchi to be executed, and the incident happened suddenly, and everyone in the audience was shocked, but they didn't even have a chance to intercede.
Therefore, Confucius and they will stay outside the palace gate, so that what happens in the palace can respond in time, and they must not let the tragedy of Ji Jin be staged again.
But the problem is that Qingqiutai is a forbidden place in the inner palace, and if there is no summons from Emperor Qin, even Confucius and King Qingding would not dare to break in at will.
Therefore, they could only send people to Qingqiutai to inquire about the news, but the people who came back said that there was no movement in Qingqiutai.
Sometimes, it's the scariest thing that doesn't move.
"It's all to blame for the incompetence of the old man!" Confucius looked up to the sky and sighed, "I can't advise the emperor, and I can't appease the people of Li, if Ji Ba unfortunately has an accident today, what face will the old man have to see Wu Anhou again?"
Hearing this, Qin Hao and Qu Fu looked at each other and smiled bitterly.
To put it mildly, if Zhang Fan unfortunately has an accident, then it will be difficult for Confucius to see Wu'anhou again.
However, these words can only be thought about in the heart, and they definitely dare not say it.
Qin Hao comforted: "Old lady, don't blame yourself too much, I believe that Ji Ergongzi Jiren has his own natural appearance, and he will be able to turn evil into good fortune!"
"Turning evil into good fortune?" Confucius sighed, "It's difficult!"
In fact, everyone knows very well in their hearts that the reason why Su Chan left Zhang Fan alone in Qingqiu Terrace was for what occasion, and it was clearly that she coveted Zhang Fan's beauty.
Presumably Ji Jin was also because of this at the beginning, but he was a righteous gentleman, and if he swore to die, he would be framed by Su Chan, who was embarrassed and angry.
As Ji Jin's brother, Ji Ba has grown up vigorously under the guidance of Wu'an Hou since he was a child, and he is naturally a righteous gentleman with excellent conduct.
But in this way, in the face of the coercion of the demon woman, Ji Ba must resist to the end and swear to the death, so ...... Isn't it in the footsteps of Himezu again?
At this time, there are not many young people like Ji Ergongzi who are affectionate, righteous, loyal and filial!
It's a pity......
"I look handsome, I die quickly, the ancients honestly don't deceive me!"
Qu Fu sighed and said in a low voice.
Just when everyone felt hopeless, at this time, a lazy voice floated over from afar.
"Ladies and gentlemen, are you preparing to go to court so early?"
Hearing that the voice was somewhat familiar, everyone hurriedly followed the prestige, but saw that on the jade steps, a figure walked down lightly, and it was Zhang Fan.
In an instant, Zhang Fan had come to everyone.
"This ......"
looked Zhang Fan up and down, and a look of disbelief suddenly appeared on everyone's faces.
They originally thought that even if Zhang Fan did not die, he must have suffered inhuman torture.
But to everyone's surprise, Zhang Fan was not even a little tired in his spirit, but there was no scars on his body.
This is a bit too godly!
As soon as they saw Zhang Fan, Confucius and the others didn't think too much, they were overjoyed and greeted each other quickly.
"Second son Ji, are you okay?"
Looking at Zhang Fan, Qu Fu asked with an incredulous face.
In fact, this question is asked a lot, as long as you look at Zhang Fan's expression, you know that he must be fine.
"It's fine!"
Zhang Fan smiled and shook his head.
"It's okay!
King Qingding laughed, suddenly opened his arms, and hugged Zhang Fan.
Turning his eyes, he saw that everyone was a little tired on their faces, obviously worried about his safety and had not slept all night, Zhang Fan only felt a warm current flowing through his heart.
"Second Prince Ji, last night the imperial concubine left you alone in Qingqiutai, she ......" Qin Hao hesitated for a moment, and looked at Zhang Fan with some suspicion, "She didn't treat you well, did she?"
Talented and beautiful, alone late at night, he asked himself if it was difficult to hold on.
Therefore, he naturally suspected that the reason why Zhang Fan was able to escape unharmed may have already succumbed.
Hearing Qin Hao's inquiry, Zhang Fan's face changed slightly, his eyes flickered, he reached out and pulled his collar, smiled reluctantly, and said, "No, you didn't do anything to me!"
As soon as everyone saw Zhang Fan's expression on his left and right, they knew that he must be hiding something.
Don't...... What did Ji Ba and Su Chan really do?
Seeing Zhang Fan's expression, there seemed to be something unspeakable, Confucius looked solemn, and asked in a deep voice: "Second son Ji, what is going on?"
Under the questioning gaze of everyone, Zhang Fan seemed to be unable to hide it anymore, and suddenly looked up to the sky and sighed, revealing a slightly humiliated look in the depths of his dark eyes.
"How fortunate Ji Ba is, to be able to get the attention of all the adults!" Zhang Fan paused, and stopped talking, "On the order of the emperor, Ji Ba stayed in Qingqiutai last night to teach the imperial concubine Niangniang to sing! Ji Ba saw that the opportunity was rare, and in the spirit of remembering the compassion of the common people and caring for the people, he used songs to illustrate righteousness and admonish ...... with righteous words."
Hearing this, everyone was awe-struck.
Confucius suddenly realized that his heart was moved.
It turned out that the reason why the second son of Ji was willing to stay in Qingqiutai was not only for the sake of Wu'anhou, but also for the people of the world, and he wanted to persuade the demon woman!
What a second son Ji who misses the common people and cares about the people!
However, Confucius thought about it again, Su Chan has been in the palace for a few months, how could he have listened to anyone's advice, Ji Ergongzi's move is undoubtedly asking for hardship.
As expected, Zhang Fan continued: "Who knows, the imperial concubine not only didn't listen, but became angry, ordered someone to strip me naked, and tortured me with candles, leather whips, etc......."
"Ahh
When everyone heard this, they were all angry.
Only then did they know that Ji Ergongzi looked like nothing had happened from the outside, but in fact, he was tortured, and he was afraid that his body was already full of holes.
What's more, if it weren't for Qin Hao's forced questioning, in order not to worry everyone, Ji Er Gongzi didn't seem to plan to tell everyone the truth at all, but just wanted to bear all this pain silently alone.
"Second son Ji, you ......" King Qingding had tears in his eyes and patted Zhang Fan's shoulder, "I really hurt you last night!"
"Ouch, it hurts!"
Zhang Fan suddenly screamed, and a look of pain suddenly appeared on his handsome face.
"I'm sorry! I'm sorry!"
King Qingding hurriedly removed his hand.
It seems that the second son of Ji is really covered in injuries!
Seeing such a situation is by no means something that can be disguised, and everyone thinks so in their hearts.
What's more, but seeing Zhang Fan's collar, the blood marks were shocking, which made them believe that although Zhang Fan was lucky to survive, he could not escape the torture.
