Once Gong Chengan died in Qianqi camp without clearing the canonical punishment, the impact on Chu Qing would undoubtedly be huge. If this incident spread, he would at least be known as abusing lynching. If someone with intentions makes a noise, the consequences will be even worse.
Unthinkable.
What moved Chu Qing was that Tao Shaozhang dared to "point out" this matter in front of so many people.
The words were conveyed by Chen Yan, the words of the emperor, and they were also oral instructions.
Tao Shaozhang definitely realized that Chen Yan's identity was not simple. If he could carry the imperial edict and freely enter and leave Qianqi Camp, he must be a member of the emperor.
In front of Chen Yan, Chu Qing refused to carry out the emperor's order. Tao Shaozhang did this not because he was in trouble. If the emperor found out, his official career would be in darkness. Let alone re-employ him. Can he do it well?
Life is full of two things.
Tao Ruolin stood up and pulled Tao Shaozhang's sleeve: "Don't think too much, the emperor just wants Chu Qing to vent his bad breath. If Chu Qing and Qian Qiying don't take action, Zhai Xiu will do it."
"Sister, Ke Chu Qing..."
Tao Ruolin shook her head with a smile: "You don't believe me?"
Tao Shaozhang looked hesitant.
Chu Qing smiled and said, "You're overthinking it. Don't worry, it's not what you think."
After finishing speaking, Chu Qing led Fu San out of the main hall and headed to the dungeon, followed closely by Jiang Yuesheng. Tao Shaozhang wanted to follow, but was pushed down on the stool by Tao Ruolin.
Chen Yan looked at Lu Zhu, who had just stopped crying, and said softly: "Your Majesty, you have something to say. Not long ago, regarding the Hanmen Academy, the Imperial College students humiliated your mother and son in every possible way. The Emperor knows that you feel wronged. Miss Zhang can also go to the dungeon."
Observe the execution.”
This is Huang Laosi, the emperor who was born in the military.
You are my fourth son's people. If Gong Chengan wants to do this to you, okay, then go ahead and kill him. Speak out your anger and prove it to you. Whoever bullies my Huang Laosi people?
, whoever the hell must die!
Luzhu shook her head: "The person who bullied the daughter of the people and Jiuniang has been exiled to Shangyundaohu City by the benefactor. How can the daughter of the people, He De, make the benefactor do justice for me? I already have no hatred in my heart."
"good."
After Chen Yan said "good", he walked out of the main hall and headed to the dungeon.
At this time, in the dungeon, the withered-looking Gong Chengan seemed to be dead, sitting slumped in the corner, his thin body like a lifeless shell in the darkness, and his eyes were lifeless.
Hearing the footsteps, Gong Chengan raised his head and smiled when he saw it was Chu Qing and others.
Standing up, Gong Chengan burst into hoarse laughter.
"The treacherous ministers are rampant, the emperor is unclear, and the country will perish!"
Fu San opened the cell door, and Chu Qing and Jiang Yuesheng stepped in.
Seeing Fu San take out the short knife from his waist, Gong Chengan showed no fear on his face and his laughter became louder.
"A foolish king, a tyrant, he is indeed a foolish king and a tyrant. I, Gong Chengan, have been self-motivated. He has read the Four Books, knows the Five Classics, is full of poems, and has disciples and former officials all over the world. Even if he dies, my name will be passed down through the ages, and his virtuous teachings will be in my heart."
, the legend of death..."
"Pfft", before Gong Chengan could finish speaking, a short knife pierced his heart.
Qian Ji drew out, and Fu San shook off the blood on the knife: "What the hell is there so much nonsense?"
Looking at the dumbfounded Chu Qing, Fu San put the short knife back into its sheath: "Master, let's go get something to eat. Aren't you hungry?"
Chu Qing: "..."
Jiang Yuesheng gasped and looked at Gong Chengan who was lying dead on the ground, grinning and unable to say a word.
Gong Chengan, the former Imperial Academy scholar who made a wine sacrifice and made a statement that spread all over the world, didn't even finish his last words, and was just...stabbed to death?
As soon as Chen Yan walked in, he looked at the corpse on the ground and was stunned.
"died?"
Jiang Yuesheng turned his head and nodded numbly.
Chen Yan took a closer look: "So fast?"
Fu San's face was full of contempt: "Didn't the Emperor say that he should be killed? Why, he also asked him to recite the Book of Songs to you before he died?"
Chen Yan: “…”
Chu Qing gave Fu San a thumbs up: "Third brother, you are really underestimating your talents by following me."
Fu San chuckled and said, "You are the master of this little one. It's only because of your talents that you are underestimating yourself."
The two laughed loudly and walked out of the dungeon arm in arm.
Chen Yan and Jiang Yuesheng looked at each other, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Yes, Gong Chengan must die today, but... something doesn't feel right.
It’s not that he should be allowed to live, as an old guy. After all, Gong Chengan was the former Imperial Academy. Every scholar in the world knows that before the Hanmen Academy was demolished, even the emperor had to treat him with courtesy, and then... he didn’t even finish his last words.
, was directly stabbed to death by Fu San because the third brother was in a hurry to have lunch.
The most important thing is that the fourth child told Chen Yan to see if Gong Chengan would beg for mercy, cry, or pee his pants before he died, what he said, and what his virtues were. Let Chen Yan see clearly, write it down, and return to the palace.
To describe it well with Lao Si, the two brothers are also very happy and proud.
But when Chen Yan thought about it now, he suddenly realized that in terms of the layout, the fourth brother seemed to be inferior to the third brother...
Back in the main hall, Chu Qing announced that the meeting was adjourned and it was time to eat.
Chu Qing is a more pretentious person, at least more pretentious than the Tanma people from Qianqiyingying. In addition, he has a special status, so he doesn't go out to eat and lets the Tanma people do the cooking. The Tanma people who are responsible for cooking must also be professional.
At noon, there was old hen stew. A large pot full of chicken was served, and everyone started to feast on it.
The main hall was filled with the smell of meat, and everyone was holding a big bowl of chicken. Even Tao Ruolin didn't look like she was eating.
Not to mention Cao Hu. He went to the backyard to find a pot. He felt that it was too troublesome to use a wooden basin to hold it.
Bi Hua squinted her eyes, looking at Lu Zhu, as if she was about to burst into flames.
She just felt that something was wrong with Luzhu, but she couldn't tell what was wrong.
Now she could speak up, because Luzhu was diligently serving Fu San some food, blowing on it before doing so.
Tao Ruolin smiled: "If you can't stand it, just go and pick up food for Fu San."
Bihua, who was holding a big basin, sipped her saliva and said, "Just finish eating these five chicken drumsticks."
Tao Ruolin sighed silently.
Turning around, Tao Ruolin asked quietly: "Do you know why Fu San treats you so politely?"
Bihua shook her head while eating.
Tao Ruolin took the Bihua tub away angrily and put it on the table.
Pointing to the wooden basin, Tao Ruolin asked: "Is it hot?"
Bihua nodded stupidly: "It's a little hot."
"Now you know why."
Bi Hua thoughtfully said: "You mean, if it's hot, you can't rush it for a while?"
"I mean, look at how fat you are. You can eat three chickens in one meal. Who would fall in love with you?"
Bihua pouted aggrievedly: "Three is just five and a half is enough."
Tao Ruolin: “…”
Tao Ruolin was educating Bihua, and Chu Qing was not idle either.
Chu Qing sneered at Fu San's back, and whispered: "Did you realize just now that Bihua didn't give you a nice look when Lu Zhu was picking up the food for you?"
Fu San's expression tightened: "Is she going to snatch the little chicken's butt?!"
