Chapter 254: Verbal Conflict

The lord of Qingyang City, who was in his fifties, was dark and fat, sitting on the back panel of the public desk with a face, not necessarily majestic, and looking gloomy. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Seeing Niu Hao and Zhengwen bowing and saluting, Lord City Shou said coldly:

"This official is the imperial court's order, a parent. You two grass people, don't you kneel when you see the official!"

Zhengwen raised his head and said to Lord Castle Guard:

"My lord, the two of us are not grass people, the two of us are disciples of Kongming Mountain. The first emperor had an edict that Taoist disciples reached the will of heaven and spread the people's feelings, prayed for blessings in disaster years, and celebrated the passing year. It is the foundation of the prosperity of the country. Grant tax exemption and exemption from forced labor to local Taoist institutes. With the size of the scale, enjoy the treatment of the three princes and the nine kings. Taoist disciples, kneel down to the three Qing and three emperors, and kneel down to be the son of heaven. In addition, the officials are allowed not to kneel and sit on an equal footing. ”

Zhengwen looked at the castle guard and asked:

"Don't you know?"

Lord Castle Guard doesn't seem to know. Turning his head and asking Humpty Dumpty, the staff member, with his eyes.

Humpty Dumpty, whether he knows it or not, has to give an accurate reply to the adult. So he nodded at the castle guard.

Lord Cheng Shou originally wanted to give the two little Taoist priests who walked in a dismount, but he didn't expect that the stumbling block was not good, but he tripped himself and robbed the.

The castle keeper suppressed the anger in his heart, and asked at Zhengwen again:

"You two, are you here to surrender?"

Zhengwen replied:

"My lord, our Taoist disciples are law-abiding and have never been traitors, what are you going to do?"

Lord Castle Guard snorted and sneered, and said:

"Your Taoist priests of Tianjing Pavilion have colluded with the He family in Qingyang City to deliberately rebel, and the evidence is conclusive. Isn't that a traitor!"

As he spoke, the castle keeper slapped the table hard.

The snapping sound did not scare Zhengwen and Niu Hao, but startled the staff Humpty Dumpty next to Lord City Guard, and turned his head to glance at Lord City Guard.

正文 says:

"My lord, we are here for this purpose. Qingyang Mansion arrested the disciples of the Taoist Academy for the crime of rebellion, but did not release the evidence for a long time. It attracted the world's suspicion, and made the people in Qingyang City panic. We are here to see what kind of evidence the adults have in their hands to prove that the disciples of Kong Mingshan intend to rebel. ”

Lord Castle Guard snorted and sneered and said:

"Proof, of course I have. The evidence is ironclad. But it's not something you two little Taoist priests can see if you want to. ”

正文 says:

"Taoist disciples, when you enter the gate of the Taoist Academy, you are seeking the Great Dao and cultivating the true self. Taoist disciples do not cut off the red dust, in order to dispel evil spirits and settle down with the people, and pray for heaven and blessings. The lord said that my disciples of Kongmingshan colluded to rebel, but they did not produce evidence. I would like to ask rhetorically, is it because the adults have ill intentions and want to frame my Daoist disciples!"

"You're so bold!"

The castle guard roared and stood up, slamming the table.

Humpty Dumpty, who was standing beside Lord Castle Guard, shook his body and couldn't help frowning.

Lord Castle Keeper yelled, "You're so bold," but he didn't know what to say next, and stood there.

It's just that he just sat back without saying anything, and he seemed too incompetent.

Lord Castle Guard stared at Masato and froze there.

Humpty Dumpty, the staff member, said to the castle keeper at the right time:

"Your Majesty is angry. ”

As he spoke, he pulled the castle keeper and sat back behind the public office. Then, he said to Zhengwen:

"Lord Castle Guard, as a parent, he is dutiful. Qingyang Mansion is governed in an orderly manner, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. How could such a parent official have ill intentions, and how could he harm the disciples of the Taoist Academy. The imprisonment of the Taoist priests of Tianjing Pavilion is naturally conclusive evidence. As for this evidence, it is the evidence of the He family who rebelled. ”

"Then bring the two parties and testify in court!"

Zhengwen said.

Humpty Dumpty looked at Zhengwen and laughed, and said:

"You really think that this Qingyang Mansion was opened by you Taoist priests, and we have to do whatever you want. The case has been closed, just waiting to be reported to the court, the flow of the match, the flow of the match, the questioning of the beheading. As for you, the Taoist priests of Kongming Mountain, how to get out. It depends on how the Son of Heaven decrees. ”

Zhengwen looked at the big black face of Lord Castle Guard behind the public case, and said:

"I heard that the rebellion of the He family, the richest man in Qingyang City, was framed. Now you have concocted the disciples of the Taoist Academy to conspire to rebel. When this matter was reported to the imperial court, do you think anyone would believe it? The matter of rebellion was originally a matter of great importance. It also involved Taoist disciples in it......"

Zhengwen shook his head slightly.

"I think it's not going to end well. ”

Behind the public case, the castle guard's big black face became even darker. A pair of eyes stared at Zhengwen, with a pair of gnashing teeth.

Humpty Dumpty looked at Zhengwen and asked:

"Why, you Taoist disciples are all in peace and keep to themselves, and never think about anything more than anything? If you want me to say, your Taoist courtyard is also a place where filth and dirt are hidden. How many bad people have been harbored, and how many traitors have been sheltered. What's the big deal about saying that you are colluding in rebellion? ”

正文 says:

"There is a gold plaque in the court of Kongming, which is a gift from the Son of Heaven. There are four words on the gold plaque: Heavenly Master of the Protector of the Country. When the emperor of heaven originally built a Ziyang Palace in the capital, he invited the immortal master Mingyue Dao to live for a long time, just to be able to hear the Tao day and night. Immortal Master Mingyue Dao Chang insisted on not accepting it because of the hustle and bustle of glory. You are now saying that the Taoist disciples of Kongming Mountain intend to rebel. You have to figure out whose face this is slapping you!"

This is definitely something that I never expected.

The castle guard and Humpty Dumpty's staff all froze there with their mouths wide open.

Zhengwen continued:

"Since you refuse to retry the case, let the parties testify in court. Well, give us time to prove our innocence. Let's go to the prison and visit the Heavenly Crystal Pavilion Daoists who have been imprisoned. ”

Humpty Dumpty listened to what he was hearing, and suddenly remembered something, and lowered his head to whisper in the ear of the castle keeper.

As the castle keeper listened, his face terrified. Finally, he couldn't help but ask Humpty Dumpty:

"So what to do!"

What to do?

Humpty Dumpty didn't know what to do, just lowered his head and sighed.

Lord Castle Shou turned his head to look at Zhengwen and Niu Hao, and opened his mouth to say something to ease the atmosphere. I hesitated for a long time, but I couldn't say anything.

Zhengwen asked coldly:

"Why, aren't we even allowed to visit the prison?"

"Xu, Xu. ”

Humpty Dumpty replied repeatedly.

"It's just, just a little accident in the middle. But this matter is definitely not the original intention of our castle guard, this matter, this matter, is ......"

Zheng Wen couldn't stand Humpty Dumpty's spitting, and said sharply:

"Then hurry up and take us there!"

Humpty Dumpty turned his head to look at Lord Castle Guard, who was dejected and completely out of idea.
