Chapter 44: The dilemma of loyalty and righteousness, the love between master and servant is deep
Once again in prison, Jian Chen's mood was even worse than last time, because of himself, he affected Lu Qingsong, which made him feel very uncomfortable. More importantly, he found that Wulin Yuan seemed to have no secrets in the eyes of the emperor, and those emperors who he and his senior brother wanted to hide were already aware of it. He was a little scared, feeling that his every move seemed to be under someone's nose all the time, this person, hidden very deeply, made him shudder.
At the same time, the news of Chen Jian's death sentence soon spread throughout Pingyang County.
Lu Qingsong was stunned for a moment after receiving the emperor's holy decree.
He knew Jian Chen's character, in fact, he had thought about this problem as early as when he was asked to run for the Praetorian Guard. Accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger, and staying in the palace with Chen Jian's upright personality may not be the best policy, but considering that the Praetorian Guards are only on duty as usual and do not have much to do with others, and Chen Jian has become a thorn in the side of the Hou Ye's Mansion at that time, he may not be able to move the Pingyang Mansion with the means of the Hou Ye, but it is probably not difficult to deal with a mere guard, so he sent Chen Jian to the palace.
The original intention was to let Chen Jian take a foot in danger, but he didn't expect that he would send him into a greater crisis instead.
He never thought that Jian Chen would have something to do with the princess, at this moment, he only felt that everything that Jian Chen suffered was caused by himself, if he hadn't asked him to enter the palace at the beginning, he would not have caused this murder now, thinking of this, he couldn't sit still, although he had just been tortured with a cane, and even had some difficulty walking, but he still insisted on going to the palace.
Gongsun knew Lu Qingsong's intentions, and he also knew that he couldn't stop him.
"It's okay for adults to go, but students have to go along. β
"No, if you anger the emperor, it will affect Mr. Gongsun. Lu Qingsong tried his best to stop it.
"When Jian Chen entered the palace, the student was also a highly recommended person at the beginning, and the student couldn't get out of it because of this matter. Besides," he looked at Lu Qingsong's injury, "With the current body of the adult, the student also needs to be watched." β
Lu Qingsong saw that his grandson was determined and knew his character, although he couldn't bear it, he was helpless.
Carefully supporting Lu Qingsong, Gongsun Zi quietly left the mansion without informing the four guards, however, when they arrived outside the mansion gate, the two could no longer take a step forward.
Outside the mansion, a group of people knelt down at this time, men, women and children, all looking forward to the gate of the mansion.
Seeing the two of them come out, the crowd instantly erupted in a burst of petitions, "Lord Lu, save Escort Chen!"
Among these people, some of them were wronged because of Chen Jian, some were saved by Chen Jian, some were influenced by Chen Jian after committing mistakes, and some came here after hearing about Chen Jian's reputation.
Looking at these simple people in front of him, Lu Qingsong's heart moved, in less than a year, Chen Jian's reputation in Pingyang County had reached its peak.
"Everyone rest assured, this time this time when the palace enters the palace, it will definitely fight with the emperor and do its best to save the life of Chen Huwei. Lu Qingsong faced the crowd outside the mansion, let go of his grandson's hand to support him, and stood up straight.
Seeing that Lu Qingsong agreed so resolutely and cheerfully, everyone only showed a slight smile, and then began to look solemn again.
In fact, everyone knows that this time when you enter the palace, the ending is unpredictable.
Looking at everyone's still deep faces, Lu Qingsong sighed and walked in the direction of the palace gate.
Just a few steps away, Zhang Feng and the other four guards hurriedly ran out of the mansion and silently followed behind Lu Qingsong.
"Wait until you go back to the palace and wait. Lu Qingsong turned around and scolded.
None of the four moved.
Lu Qingsong said angrily, "You dare to disobey the orders of this government!"
The four of them looked at Lu Qingsong, knelt on the ground, and "begged the lord to take us into the palace together."
Gongsun looked at the four of them, turned to Lu Qingsong and said, "My lord, let them go, brotherhood is deep, and it can't be given up in three or two sentences." β
Lu Qingsong looked at the four people kneeling in front of him, looked at them one by one with resolute expressions, shook his head, and limped towards the palace.
At the foot of the Tianshan Mountains, in an inn, a man and a woman are arguing.
"After all, you just don't believe me, doubt me, I risked my life to save you, and you said these words to hurt me!"
The man next to him looked obviously displeased, "It's because I believe in you that I want you to tell me the truth." β
"What the truth, what I say and do, is all for you, what is the conspiracy! I don't know what to say on what occasions, and you will give me such a big hat if you say a wrong sentence or two, you-you are too much of a bully. The woman burst into tears.
The people around were attracted by the woman's cry and turned their eyes to this side.
The man and woman who were arguing fiercely were Shangguan Yunrui and Feng Xueyue, who had just returned from the Tianshan Mountains.
After Feng Xueyue rescued Shangguan Yunrui from the Tianshan Mountains, the two of them have been living in this inn to recuperate from their injuries.
In the first few days, the two talked and laughed, but within a few days, Shangguan Yunrui's face began to turn cloudy.
Every time he saw Fengxueyue, Shangguan Yunrui wanted to say what he thought in his heart, but he didn't dare, he was afraid that he would say this, so he personally cut off the relationship between the two.
Since Pingyang Mansion got acquainted with Feng Xueyue, Shangguan Yunrui has been wary of this person who appeared beside him for no reason. From Feng Xueyue's many casual words, he could feel that this woman was not simple, she deliberately revealed her identity at Chen Jian's funeral in Tianshan Mountain, and later when Chen Jian was tried by the Tianshan faction, her inadvertent provocative words caused Chen Jian to almost die, this incident made Shangguan Yunrui feel that it was no coincidence, nor was it what Feng Xueyue said. Moreover, this time, she appeared in Tianjiufeng for no reason, which made him even more suspicious. But I don't know why, although I have doubts about her in my heart, I always instinctively want to keep her by my side, and I should have observed her in the dark, but now I said to her that I doubted her face to face, Shangguan Yunrui was very annoyed, why couldn't he hold his breath.
However, since the words have been spoken, then take this opportunity to sort out the relationship between the two, and when the judgment continues, it will be chaotic.
Seeing Feng Xueyue crying bitterly in front of him, Shangguan Yunrui couldn't tell whether she was fake or true.
The people around them had already gathered around, pointing at the two of them.
Feng Xueyue saw that there were many people, and she cried more and more.
Shangguan Yunrui frowned, and his face gradually darkened.
"You don't have to make a show here, I've seen enough of your play!" Shangguan Yunrui roared.
Feng Xueyue stopped crying and raised her head to look at him puzzled, she had never seen Shangguan Yunrui lose such a big temper in front of her.
"No matter what purpose you approached me, or whether you were acting at Tianjiu Peak at that time, I Shangguan Yunrui put my words here today, I-I like you!"
The onlookers saw Shangguan Yunrui suddenly confess in public, and after hesitating, they applauded.
Feng Xueyue was stunned, she didn't expect that Shangguan Yunrui, who had doubted herself, suddenly took a 180-degree turn in her attitude.
"If, if you also like me, then I, Shangguan Yunrui, swear in front of so many people, I will definitely treat you well for the rest of my life, but-" Shangguan Yunrui suppressed his frantic heartbeat, "But if you just use me and want to get something from me, I advise you to die of this heart! I, Shangguan Yunrui, love and hate clearly, and I will never be merciful to the treacherous, so I advise you, from today onwards, disappear from my side as soon as possible!"
Finally said it, since Tianjiufeng's time, Feng Xueyue's unintentional actions towards him, Shangguan Yunrui finally understood why he always had an inexplicable feeling about Feng Xueyue, and he might have liked her.
Shangguan Yunrui's words stunned Feng Xueyue.
She did deliberately approach Shangguan Yunrui, but she didn't know that Shangguan Yunrui had been doubting herself for a long time, but she had never broken it, but now, she warned herself in this way.
In Feng Xueyue's heart, I don't know when I started to have feelings for this high-spirited, chivalrous, and somewhat shy martial arts alliance leader, but my identity-
"Shangguan Alliance Leader!"
When the two of them were relatively speechless, a shout of joy came from the crowd.
Shangguan Yunrui turned his head and saw Mei Songzhu coming out of the crowd.
"Alliance leader, I've finally found you. Mei Songzhu was overjoyed when she saw Shangguan Yunrui.
Shangguan Yunrui looked at Feng Xueyue and made up his mind, "What is Second Brother Mei looking for me?"
"Something happened in Pingyang Mansion. "Mei Songzhu is very anxious.
Chen Jian's matter became Feng, and on the way to find Shangguan Yunrui by Mei Songzhu, the flying pigeon passed a letter to him.
"Pingyang Mansion?βwhat's wrong with him!" As soon as Shangguan Yunrui heard about Pingyang Mansion, he knew that this matter was related to Jian Chen.
"He caused an incident in the palace, and now he has been sentenced to death, and he will be beheaded soon!"
"What!" Shangguan Yunrui was startled.
He looked at Feng Xueyue, who was silent, gritted his teeth, and turned to Mei Songzhu and said, "I'll go first!" After speaking, he hurried out of the inn.
Mei Songzhu watched Shangguan Yunrui go away, shook his head, and arched his hand to Feng Xueyue.
"Wind Girl is fine!"
"What's so good, who is he? Why did he make him so nervous that he left me here and ran away without saying hello?" Feng Xueyue looked angry.
Mei Songzhu smiled and did not speak.
And Feng Xueyue turned her head to look at the direction in which Shangguan Yunrui had left, and her expression suddenly became extremely cold.
You-like me?
I-like you, too.
It's just, can we really be together?
