With a clang, the long needle in his hand fell to the ground.
The young man grinned in horror and cried, "Uncle, I don't dare..."
Bang, Mr. Liu just slapped him in the face and said angrily, "You useless thing, this is your future job. Pick it up and do as I teach you." As he said that, he looked at his cowardly nephew and hated the iron.
He cursed, "Can I control you for the rest of my life? What will you do if I die? Come here and prick this acupoint!"
"Aim, use skillful force...Yes, pierce slowly, turn around and pierce in..."
Outside the door, He Guangyi, who was watching with cold eyes, once again said one word in his heart, uncle.
"No matter how you say it, the Chang family is still the uncle of Long live the Lord! There are some things that the Chang family can do, but outsiders should not say!"
He thought to himself and looked away.
In the cell, with the frequency of the needles being administered to the young man, King Zhou's struggle became increasingly weak. When the time came, Jin Yiwei let go of his hand, and he just lay there, twitching.
He Guangyi took a few steps back and was about to leave when he suddenly heard another voice coming from the cell next to him where the crazy boy was being held.
The voice is not as hysterical as before, but a little vague. Listen carefully, it seems to be a song.
He Guangyi opened the iron door window and looked in.
A young man with cloudy eyes and a silly smile on his face kept beating his head and singing softly.
"My little wife has high demands on me. She wants gold ingots and big gold bars. I, a poor man, can't get gold tickets, so I have to go out and pay for it."
"I didn't get the money from my pocket, so I was caught and sent to jail. I was crying inside and she was laughing outside. I knew it was all over!"
"You can laugh your ass off, you can laugh your ass off, I am doing it all for you. Since you are ruthless, I have no righteousness, so I will divorce you when I get out!"
"Ha!" He Guangyi smiled, and then his laughter gradually became cheerful, and he actually laughed so hard that he laughed.
"Hahaha!" He Guangyi laughed a few times and hooked his hands behind him.
Hundreds of Jin Wanwan stepped forward, "Please give me your instructions!"
"Him!" He Guangyi pointed to the iron gate, "Find a doctor to show him, and then give him a few silver dollars and let him go home!"
"Find him a doctor, you are really kind!" Jin Wanwan said with a smile.
He Guangyi's smile suddenly disappeared and he patted the other party on the shoulder, "I'm afraid I won't be able to give birth to a son in the future!"
Not long after he finished speaking, Mr. Liu came out with his nephew, whose face was full of tears and his whole body was trembling.
"Du Tang, it's done!" Mr. Liu bowed and said with a smile.
"Confirmed?" He Guangyi asked.
"Don't worry, it's not the little old man's boast that no matter where the fraudster is, they can't find out the cause of his death!" Mr. Liu said with a smile, "Whoever tries to find out, it's just him who scared himself to death. That's what the saying goes.
Exhaustion!"
"Okay!" He Guangyi nodded and walked out, "Bring two small yellow croakers to Mr. Liu!"
"Thank you for the reward!"
~~
A bowl of noodles is placed quietly on the table.
As time passes by, the noodles have cooled down. The oil in the soup has become thicker, but the two slices of green onion on the poached eggs are still green.
Li Jinglong's knees hurt. He had been kneeling for a long time. But the emperor didn't say anything, so he didn't dare to get up.
He could only look up secretly and look at the emperor's face.
Then, he saw nothing.
But the more this happened, the more he held his breath and did not dare to make any noise. Because he has been to the sea, he knows that the calmer the sea is before the storm comes, the more terrifying the coming storm will be.
Zhu Yunxi had no expression on his face, but he was very angry in his heart.
The affairs of the Chang family suddenly made him feel betrayed, and even more so, a feeling of being teased.
He could lie to himself in his mind that it was just his unlucky cousin who deceived his family for money, which led to today's case involving the feudal king.
But he knew very well that the root cause actually lay in Chang Sen's son, who was his cousin, and the Chang family was his mother's family. Because he was the emperor, they also had great power in their hands.
Thinking further, his uncle's family has such bad things, but what about other families? What about Li Jinglong who is kneeling in front of him? This is something that has been found out, and what about others that have not been found out?
He suddenly felt a little tired. He wasn't so tired when he was the emperor's grandson. Why was he so tired as the emperor?
In fact, he knew why he was so tired, because he was the emperor now, his heart had changed, and many people's hearts had also wandered.
"Get up and stand there and talk!" Zhu Yunxi said calmly.
"I don't dare!" Li Jinglong replied.
Zhu Yunxi finally turned around and looked at Li Jinglong, "I want you to get up!"
"Yes!" Li Jinglong immediately got up and stood aside with his hands down.
"Did the criminal's confession really not involve Zheng Guogong and his brothers?" Zhu Yunxi asked.
"Back to the emperor, it is indeed true. The prisoner confessed that it was because he was in love with Zheng Guogong's son..."
(There is a typo in the front. Chang Yuan is the son of Chang Sheng. I wrote it as Chang Sen. Please forgive me.)
"Do you think I will believe it? The matter about the Yunnan Yunnan Horse belongs to my cousin Chang Yuan, right? If he asked his third uncle to do something, his father would not know?" Zhu Yunxi still had no expression, but his speech speed increased a lot.
, "You tell the truth!"
This is the biggest doubt in the dossier's confession, and it is also one of the reasons for Zhu Yunxi's anger.
His cousin Chang Yuan is Chang Sheng's son. Where in the world can you not ask your biological father or your uncle to do things? Even if you ask your uncle, when it comes to writing a note to the general of Datong, would Chang Sen not tell Chang Sheng?
"The prisoner's confession is indeed true. He Guangyi knew the matter was important and interrogated it himself!" Li Jinglong said in a low voice.
"Where is King Zhou's nanny? I want to personally..." As he said that, Zhu Yunxi suddenly noticed something and looked at Li Jinglong with cold eyes.
"I am guilty of death!" Li Jinglong kowtowed again, his whole body trembling.
"Oh?" Zhu Yunxi laughed angrily, "Gong Cao Guo is so brave! Even imperial prisoners can be executed privately without me? How about giving me a death sentence without any evidence? You might as well not tell me about this matter!"
, his tone suddenly became severe, "Who do you think you are?"
"Your Majesty!" Li Jinglong kowtowed and choked, "The family scandal must not be made public!" He choked, "I know the matter is very important, but I have no other choice. The Chang family is the mother of the Emperor. This case is also of great concern.
It's serious. If it's true... The emperor wants to blame it, and I will accept it with all my heart."
"I also know that what I have committed is a serious crime of deceiving the emperor, but what I want to do is to preserve the face of the Chang family, and also to preserve the dignity of you, Long Live Lord."
"So, I still want to thank you!" Zhu Yunxi laughed angrily, "Ha, what a protection, what a fulfillment. Without you Cao Guogong, I, the emperor, will be embarrassed! Isn't it?"
Li Jinglong was sweating like rain. Even though the emperor had scolded him over the years, he had never used such a tone.
Especially the phrase "Who are you?" made him feel like he was struck by lightning.
For a moment, his usual cleverness was completely lost, and he didn't know how to say anything he had prepared.
"When you talk to me, you'd better think about who you are!" Zhu Yunxi continued.
In an instant, Li Jinglong understood the most fundamental meaning of this sentence.
The emperor is saying that I use you, Li Jinglong, to do things for you, not to hide it from me!
At this moment, the door curtain moved slightly.
Zhu Yunxi saw from the corner of his eye, "What's going on?"
"Long live the Lord!" Bastard said outside the door, "Zheng Guogong and the two Marquis Huaiyuan have handed over a sign and want to see Your Majesty in the palace!"
Li Jinglong suddenly cursed in his heart, "Didn't I ask them to come later? Isn't this just adding fuel to the fire?"
"I know, come in!" Zhu Yunxi said calmly.
As the bastard came in, Zhu Yunxi pulled a piece of paper, wrote two words with a pen and handed it over.
The bastard didn't know many words, but he knew the word "green eyes". He sighed inwardly and took it, not daring to speak.
Zhu Yunxi wants to use Qingyan, but he is not making a fuss out of a molehill.
But he suddenly discovered that there were many things that he, the emperor, did not necessarily want to know.
Zhu Yunxi kept brushing and brushed, and quickly wrote on the paper, "Sent to the Ministry of War and Xu Huizu, General Zhenbei was transferred back safely, and Fu Rang took him in. Yu Tongyuan, the Marquis of Yuexun, entrusted him with the post of acting governor of the Fifth Army.
The governor of the military capital, Wuding Marquis Guo Ying, took over the city defense."
His pen paused as he wrote, and he continued to write, "Chengenhou Zhao Zhixin has been assigned to the Shuntian Prefecture to patrol the military."
Then, they handed it to the bastard.
Li Jinglong was still kneeling there. After a cup of tea, the Chang brothers came in from outside with their heads lowered.
"Guilty minister, please kowtow to the emperor!" As soon as they entered the Qianqing Palace, they knelt in front of Zhu Yunxi and kowtowed repeatedly.
Zhu Yunxi didn't say anything, he picked up the tea cup and took a sip.
The Chang brothers looked at each other, Chang Sheng raised his head and said, "Please ask your Majesty Xu Chen to come out of the capital and kill that little beast!"
"In the 29th year of Hongwu's reign, you said this once, and at that time I...helped you to get away with it!" Zhu Yunxi said without looking at the two of them.
"Your Majesty, I will always bear your kindness in mind..."
Suddenly, a beam of light fell from the window.
That's the golden light reflected on the glazed tiles when the setting sun is setting.
As Zhu Yunxi listened to Chang Sheng's words, his mind suddenly recalled what Chang Sheng said to him in his carriage when he returned to the palace after paying homage to Zhu Biao many years ago at this time.
"Brother Xi, if you want to compete for that position, our Chang family will follow you even if we die!"
"It's because I didn't discipline myself strictly that the little beast behaved mischievously..."
"This is no longer reckless, but daring. You are blood relatives of my mother's clan, and he actually colluded with the vassal king's people." Zhu Yunxi interrupted him with a cold look, "My relatives are like this, who can I trust in the future?
