After hearing Zhu Youxiao's words "I am not confused", Yue Su was not only moved, but also grateful.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Yue Su knelt down in front of Zhu Youxiao and was about to kowtow, but Zhu Youxiao caught him and helped him up.

"My dear sir, I have said before that there is no need to do this great gift when there are no outsiders. Although you and I are called monarchs and ministers, I have always regarded you as a good teacher and helpful friend. To be honest, I am reluctant to let you go, but I also know that

, you are dedicated to the country and my country. You can go with peace of mind, I will always make the decision for you, and I will always believe in you." Zhu Youxiao said earnestly: "I plan to be a pair of monarchs and ministers with you for the ages."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." After hearing Zhu Youxiao's words, Yue Su was so moved that he shed tears.

Zhu Youxiao patted Yue Su on the shoulder and said: "My dear, I will give you an oral instruction today. When you are in Henan, if someone holds an imperial edict to arrest you or remove you from office, no matter what,

You can regard it as an edict."

"This..." Yue Su really didn't expect that the carpenter emperor would believe in him so much.

"There are not many people I can trust. You are one of them. I believe you will not lie to me." Zhu Youxiao smiled again, took Yue Su's hand, returned to his seat and sat down, smiling: "Love

Sir, you didn’t just prepare this story to tell me, are there any other interesting stories?”

"Since the emperor likes to hear it, I will tell him another story about Bao Qingtian." Yue Su came today and prepared two stories in total. One is about three people painting a tiger, and the other is about Bao Gong. "Bao Qingtian"

I have watched the TV series Yue Su. According to the plot of the play, Yue Su starts from Chenzhou releasing grain. The three ways of Yuzha were tampered with by Gongsun Ce into three swords of Yuzhao, Bao Mian of Guild, Uncle of Guoguo, and Consort of Guillotine.

He told a series of seven stories about corrupt officials and bullies, and Zhu Carpenter just heard him cheering so loudly that he forgot the time.

When Yue Su finished telling the story, he clapped his hands and said: "Ai Qing told it well, it is much more interesting than those told by the masters of the Imperial College. I have heard of the Baolong Picture in the Northern Song Dynasty, but I have never heard of the story of the three copper guillotines.

, if Aiqing has these three copper guillotines, she will be my Yue Qingtian."

"I don't dare." Yue Su quickly bowed and said.

"I'm not a child. In the past, when you told me stories, I could hear the meaning and truth. To be honest, I really want to make you my teacher.

"I don't dare."

"Don't dare to say a word to me. You and I have a deep love for each other. I don't like you to be so polite in front of me." Zhu Youxiao said, stood up, took three pieces of wood, put them on the table, and said: "

My dear, please go and fetch three pieces of wood of the same size."

Yue Su didn't know what was going on, but according to the emperor's wishes, he also took three pieces of wood of the same size. At this time, he heard Carpenter Zhu say: "Let's compete again today and outline this dragon according to our minds."

, tiger, and dog with three guillotines. If your speed is faster than mine, and your appearance is more realistic than mine, I will give you these three guillotines!"

"Your Majesty, are you telling the truth?" Yue Su didn't believe his ears. He told the emperor this story. In fact, he just wanted to beat around the bush and get the right to kill first and then report later. He didn't have any extravagant hopes for the three copper guillotines.

Following the words, I would be thankful to God if I asked for a sword from Shang Fang. I didn't expect Carpenter Zhu to be so generous and plan to give these three copper guillotines.

"You're joking!" Zhu Youxiao took out his knife, grabbed a piece of wood, and said, "Aiqing, are you ready? Let's start now!"

Yue Su said no more, quickly took out his knife, picked up a piece of wood, and said: "Your Majesty, please!"

As soon as the words fell, the two began to carve. The two of them naturally knew the appearance of the dragon, tiger, and dog, but Yue Su had seen the appearance of these three copper guillotines on TV. He had this totem in his mind, so the carving was natural.

Got the upper hand.

However, Carpenter Zhu is not a fuel-efficient lamp. The second-largest carpenter in Chinese history is not famous in vain. Although he does not know what these three guillotines look like, he also designs a kind of carpenter in his mind based on his imagination.

Come in shape.

A simple carving knife, in the hands of the two, was like a part of the body. The knife flashed for a moment, and several sawdust were scattered. Soon, the first tap was completed.

The two picked up the second piece of wood almost at the same time, and continued to sketch it with concentration. To be honest, in terms of carpentry skills, Zhu Youxiao was better than Yue Su. The reason why every time he carved, he was the same as Yue Su.

The reason for the tie is that Yue Su is far superior to Carpenter Zhu in terms of hand strength. However, one of them is busy day and night, while the other has to handle official duties. Over time, there will inevitably be a gap.

Even though Yue Su knew what a dragon, tiger, and dog guillotine looked like, Carpenter Zhu often carved dragons and tigers. Practice makes perfect. This is true. When Carpenter Zhu finished carving the tiger head, Yue Su was still two guillotines short.

Carpenter Zhu put the tiger head guillotine on the table, took the third piece of wood, and started carving.

Yue Su was a step slow, and waited until Zhu Youxiao had already started carving, then finished carving the tiger head guillotine and went to get the wood. When a master competes with others, as long as he is slow in one step, he will be slow in every step thereafter.

As Zhu Youxiao pointed with his blade, the dog-headed guillotine gradually took shape. It can be said that among the three guillotines, the dog-headed guillotine is the easiest to carve. After a while, the dog-headed guillotine in his hand had taken shape, and only three swords were left to complete the carving.

As for Yue Su, there are still five swords left, and the outcome is already clear.

But at this moment, someone outside the door suddenly said: "Old slave, please give your regards to Your Majesty."

The voice of these words was not loud, but the two people in the Yangxin Hall naturally heard it clearly. It is important to know that when carving, it is most important not to be disturbed. Zhu Youzhan was working at the most critical moment, and was suddenly disturbed by the sound. The strength of his hands

Hit it a little bit.

He was already very quick with his skills, so he sharpened the blade and cut off the wood chips. The knife's power was not weak, and it directly cut Zhu Youxiao's thumb.

"Ah..." Zhu Youxiao cried out in pain as his thumb hurt, and the guillotine, which was about to be completed, fell to the ground.

There was a "pop" sound.

Soon, Yue Su had finished carving the dog head guillotine in his hand and put it on the table. At this moment, he noticed that Zhu Youxiao's hand was scratched. "Your Majesty, you are okay."

Seeing that the emperor was injured, Yue Su quickly took out a handkerchief from his arms with concern and wiped Zhu Youxiao's blood.

The person who was talking outside also saw Zhu Youxiao's scratched hand. He was startled. He quickly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, this old slave deserves to die. The dragon body is fine." With that, he crawled into the hall on his knees.

, came to Zhu Youxiao.

When doing carpentry work, it is inevitable that there will be bumps on the hands. Zhu Youxiao has long been used to it and said: "I'm fine." After saying that, he lowered his head and saw that the person kneeling in front of him was Wei Zhongxian, the eunuch Bingbi, the Supervisor of Ceremonies.

He smiled slightly and said, "Wei Qing, get up. It's none of your business."

"This old slave deserves to die. Thank you Your Majesty." Wei Zhongxian got up and said again: "Let me take a look at Your Majesty's hand. I don't know if I need to pass it on to the imperial doctor."

"It's nothing." Zhu Youxiao raised his hand, let Wei Zhongxian take a look, and said: "There is no need to refer to the imperial doctor for such a minor injury." His injury was indeed not serious, it was just a slight scratch on the surface and a slight bleeding.

A little bit of blood.

After finishing, Zhu Youxiao turned to look at the three guillotines carved by Yue Su on the table, then nodded, looked at Yue Su, and said: "Yue Aiqing, it seems that this is God's will. I will give you three copper guillotines right now."

.”

"Wei Qing, you came just in time..." As he said that, Zhu Youxiao pointed to the three guillotines on the table, "pass the order to the Military War Bureau to make three copper guillotines according to the appearance of these three guillotines, but this size must be according to the size of the guillotine.

It must be made in a size that can cut people's throats. It must be done appropriately and cannot be done half-heartedly. I will inspect it before noon tomorrow."

"Old slave, I obey the order." Wei Zhongxian listened in confusion. If he knew the purpose of the guillotine, and if he knew that the emperor was making a bet with Yue Su just now, he would not bother him even if he died. After he knew the truth later, his intestines would

I almost regretted it.

"Wei Qing, why did you come to see me?" Zhu Youxiao asked.

"Back to Your Majesty, the cabinet has already made a plan for Mr. Yue to leave the capital. Because the disaster is serious, we don't dare to delay, so we take the liberty to disturb Your Majesty." Wei Zhongxian said carefully.

"You are right, national affairs are of paramount importance. Tell me how the cabinet is drawn up." Zhu Youxiao said.

"Old slave, I obey the order." Wei Zhongxian unfolded your order and read aloud: "By God's blessing, the emperor issued an edict: Now that the Yellow River has burst its embankments, the disaster is serious, and the special order is to confer the title of Yin Yuesu of Shuntian Prefecture as the Imperial Envoy Minister, with the title of Governor of the Ministry of Punishment

Henan, still taking care of Tianfu affairs, went to Henan to provide disaster relief..."

Above the imperial edict, there are inevitably some words about living up to the emperor's grace and doing things well. After finishing reading, Zhu Youxiao nodded and said: "That's right. But I will add a few more words. Please remember it when you go back."

Make up for it and read it out in the morning."

"Old slave, I obey." Wei Zhongxian agreed. After speaking, he looked at the emperor, wondering what the carpenter emperor wanted to add.

"Just add... um..." Zhu Youxiao thought about it for a moment, and then said: "I will give Yue Su three copper guillotines: a dragon, a tiger, and a dog. The dragon head guillotine can be used to smite the emperor's relatives and unworthy sons and grandsons; the tiger head guillotine

The guillotine can be used to kill corrupt officials and traitors who bring harm to the country; the dog-headed guillotine can be used to kill unruly people and local tyrants. If the evidence is conclusive, there is no need to ask for an order, but you can kill it first and then report it. I also give Yue Su Shangfang a sword. If I come in person, I will do things cheaply. Yue Su is like

If you want to return to Beijing, you can do so at any time, and you must ask for permission."

"Old slave..." After hearing this, Wei Zhongxian opened his mouth so wide that he almost didn't believe his ears. It took him a long time to spit out the word "Zunzhi" at the end.

Oh my god, this emperor trusts Yue Su too much. He wields Shang Fang's sword and kills first and then plays. He also makes a dragon-headed guillotine that can kill the emperor's relatives, his descendants, and his descendants without having to ask for an order. This is too much.

Exaggerated.

However, Wei Zhongxian should not be in charge of Fengzi, Longsun, that is your emperor’s own business. As for the other two guillotines, in fact, monk Fang Baojian has the same meaning, they all have the right to kill first and then report it. If your emperor wants to come up with more names, you are free to do so.

you.

Now that it was getting late, Wei Zhongxian retired after receiving the order. He first had the military battle station built in the style of a three-port guillotine. Then he returned to the check-in room and added the contents of the emperor's imperial edict. He only waited for it to be read to the court tomorrow morning.
