Chapter Fifty-ninth: The Holy Majesty forgives sins in a single word
The curtain of the back hall was lifted, and the first two people, wearing brocade clothes and jade belts, were the emperor and the eight kings who were a thousand years old. There was another person beside him, who was slightly older, with a trace of fear on his face!
"Your Majesty!" Mr. Bao cupped his hands, handed the testimony to the emperor, and said, "Then Guo Huai has already confessed!"
Renzong took the testimony without reading it, and said directly, "Bao Zheng, you said before that you wanted to find someone to pretend to be Kou Zhu, but just now..."
The Eighth Prince and Master Pang also nodded suddenly.
Master Bao smiled bitterly, cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, the power of gods and ghosts is unfathomable in heaven and earth!"
Renzong and the Eighth Sage King looked at each other, both a little surprised!
"Wei Zhan and Shaoxia Bai have seen demons and ghosts many times, and I have also experienced them. If Chen Zhou and his party had not been helped by a demon fox, I am afraid that I would have perished long ago. Therefore, we still need to be in awe of ghosts and gods!
"Master Bao clasped his fists and said, "But if you have a clear conscience, even if a monster comes to your door, what do you have to fear?"
Emperor Renzong nodded, then softened his expression and said, "Okay, I understand!"
Renzong lowered his head, read the testimony, and shouted angrily at Guo Huai, "Guo Huai, I ask you, who is behind this matter? It's such a rebellious thing."
Guo Huai's body trembled slightly, but he finally managed to get up and replied tremblingly, "Your Majesty, this matter was planned by Guo Huai alone and was not instigated by anyone!"
Renzong's eyes widened and his sharp light flashed, "Guo Huai, do you know how to deal with the crime of deceiving the emperor?"
Guo Huai raised his eyes and glanced at Renzong, and smiled slightly, "Your Majesty, this matter was done by Guo Huai alone and was not instigated by anyone!"
Renzong stared at Guo Huai for a long time, his face gradually darkened, and he sighed, "Pull him down. Tomorrow at noon, outside the camp gate, he will be executed in Lingchi!"
Guo Huai closed his eyes and collapsed to the ground. Two government officials came up and wanted to pull him away!
Suddenly, Bai Yutang's figure flashed and suddenly appeared in front of Guo Huai. Zhan Zhao shouted coldly, and the giant sword was instantly unsheathed, standing in front of the emperor and others.
A man in white suddenly appeared in front of Guo Huai. He waved his hands twice and knocked Ya Chai to the ground. He reached out to lift Guo Huai and was about to fly away. Bai Yutang appeared next to Guo Huai in an instant and waved out a palm.
!
"There are assassins, protect the emperor!" Everyone became a little panicked.
Bai Yutang struck out with a palm, and the man also struck back with a palm. However, driven by his internal strength, he couldn't help but step back a few steps. Bai Yutang reached out and grabbed Guo Huai, smoothly pulling Guo Huai back and throwing him to the back.
When he saw the face of the visitor, Bai Yutang couldn't help but pause.
This man was wearing prison uniform and his face was a little bitter.
"Brother Shan, you..." Bai Yutang hesitated and sighed.
Zhan Zhao also saw this person clearly, shook his head, put away the giant sword, turned over several times, and came to Bai Yutang's side.
"Is it you!?" Mr. Bao also saw the person clearly and shouted angrily, "You actually escaped from the prison? And you actually came to the hall to act wild?"
"Brother Shan!" Zhan Zhao shouted, "After Guo Huai's matter is settled, Master Bao will definitely release you. Why did you escape from prison and now you are in front of the hall again!"
"I originally planned to take Eunuch Guo away!" Shan Yan smiled, "It's just a pity that even if they are caught by surprise, they still can't hide from the Golden Mouse and the Royal Cat!"
Zhan Zhao frowned, and Bai Yutang asked coldly, "Shan Yan, why are you doing this?"
A bitter smile emerged from the corner of Shan Yan's mouth, and he smiled bitterly, "Brother Bai, Brother Zhan, I'm sorry! Eunuch Guo was kind to me, and I can't let him die without a burial place!"
"Why are you doing this!?" Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang shouted at the same time.
Shan Yan shook his head, his expression gradually becoming firmer.
"Stop!" a voice rang out, it was Guo Huai!
Guo Huai stood up and shook his head, "Shan Yan, don't worry about our family. Our family has committed such a major crime and it would be a pity to die!"
"Eunuch Guo!" Shan Yan shouted suddenly.
Guo Huai waved his hand, turned around and knelt down to the emperor and others, "Your Majesty, this person is Guo Huai's bodyguard. He followed Guo Huai two years ago, but the matter has nothing to do with him! Please forgive him for today's incident, your Majesty.
It’s a sin!”
"Since he is innocent, why is he wearing prison uniform?" Emperor Renzong hesitated and asked.
Master Bao cupped his hands and said, "It was when Guo Huai was being captured that he tried to stop him, and then he was captured by Guard Zhan and thrown into prison!"
"That's it!" Emperor Renzong nodded, "In that case, I pardon his innocence and let him go!"
"Eunuch Guo!" Shan Yan shouted suddenly, "When you saved me two years ago, Shan said that Shan would protect you for three years, how could you leave like this? No matter what, today, Shan
I must take you away!"
"That's enough!" Guo Huai shouted angrily, "Don't worry about our family anymore. Leave as soon as possible. Otherwise, our family will commit suicide here. Then, of course, you no longer need to protect our family!"
Shan Yan's lips twitched for a while, and then he sighed, then nodded and cupped his hands, "Eunuch Guo, Shan's farewell... In the Jianghu, those young people still need to be removed by Shan, so, Shan.
I cannot accompany my father-in-law to the underworld. If there is an afterlife, Shan will work as a cow or a horse again to repay my father-in-law!"
Guo Huai waved his hand, nodded to Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang, bowed to Guo Huai, saluted Emperor Renzong, and then turned around and flew away!
"Alas..." Emperor Renzong sighed, "Guo Huai is considered loyal, and there are people who are willing to risk their lives to save him, which shows that he is also a righteous person... It's a pity that this person did such a thing
Something is wrong. Someone, come and pull him down. We can just behead him tomorrow, no need to delay!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Guo Huai bowed to Renzong, "I thank you for your kindness!"
Renzong waved his hand, and someone pulled Guo Huai down.
The two people who were knocked down by Dan Yan only had their acupuncture points tapped. Bai Yutang tapped the acupuncture points twice and unlocked the acupuncture points, and the two of them were considered to be in peace.
There was silence in the hall again.
Emperor Renzong stood quietly with his eyes closed. After a long time, he slowly opened his eyes and said, "Master Bao, father and grand master, can you come with me to pay homage to Li... and pay homage to the Queen Mother!"
"As it should be!" Master Bao and Taishi Pang said, holding hands.
The Eighth Prince sighed softly, "Your Majesty, from now on, I am no longer your father. You should call me your uncle!"
"Uncle Huang?" Renzong hesitated and muttered twice, "Father..."
"Even now, you still call me father?" The eighth prince smiled.
"Oral habits are hard to change!" Renzong smiled softly, "How can I let go easily after shouting for more than 20 years? Moreover, the child has always kept my father's sincere teachings in mind, even though the father is not my biological father.
, but, in the eyes of a child, it is no different from his own child!"
The Eighth Prince smiled lightly and said, "Then I will call you as the Emperor does!"
"Let's go, come with me to see my mother!"
