The night wind blew his long hair and robes, and Liu Zhang sighed and said sadly: "I never told her to ask her to accompany me, but I have actually made plans to let her sacrifice for me."
Huang Yue smiled sadly, raised her head and said: "After all, you still like her. You are just grateful to me. In order to make me take the initiative to admit the crime, you did not hesitate to lock up Miss Xiao. Sir, thank you very much."
You, this is enough, I did release the snake, I want to take Miss Xiao's place, now that everyone knows, you can punish me however you want, Huang Yue will not complain."
Huang Yue took out a small bottle from his arms and handed it to Liu Zhang. It was medicine to detoxify snake venom. Liu Zhang held it in his hand and it had Huang Yue's body temperature on it.
Liu Zhang smiled and shook his head: "Miss Huang, you are really not suitable for lying. You were too calm during the day and you are the same now. You can't let me believe that you let the snake go to harm Xun'er because you want to replace Ronger's position.
Yes, tell me the person behind you. I want to end this matter because I am so tired."
Huang Yue was silent for a while, shook her head and said: "No, it's just me."
Liu Zhang sighed, and at this time, a soldier came to report: "My lord, Lord Fa wants to see you."
"Fazheng." Liu Zhang recited silently, and the worry that he had been worrying about finally relaxed. He had always been worried that the person behind Huang Yue was Huang Quan. If that was the case, it could be characterized as the first civil servant gathering officials to help his sister rise to the position.
No matter what Huang Quan's starting point is, this kind of precedent must not be set. When the time comes, Liu Zhang will not know how to face Huang Yue who has helped him many times.
But if the Fa is righteous, it will be much easier to handle.
"Let him in."
"I see you, my lord." Fazheng bowed and bowed.
"This is the first time I see you saluting so respectfully. Tell me what's going on."
Fa Zheng bowed and said, "Lord, everything has nothing to do with Miss Huang, it is all planned by my subordinates."
After Fazheng returned during the day, he had been restless. Liu Zhang's eyes at that moment of staring at Huang Yue were lingering. After a long time, Fazheng finally understood that his lord was not that easy to deceive, and he could not hide these tricks from him.
Liu Zhang cannot be restrained, and once the truth is discovered, the consequences will be terrible. Fazheng cannot let Huang Yue bear such consequences alone, that would be too cruel.
"My lord, my subordinates did not want my lord to marry the Xiao family. They tried to persuade the ministers to remonstrate to no avail, so they had evil thoughts and instigated Miss Huang to let the snake go to the young master. Moreover, when Miss Huang came to Chengdu, it was also Fazheng who instigated her. Huang
The girl has always hoped to make the Lord and the Xiao family happy. If it were not for the instigation of her subordinates, she would never do these things. Please be aware of this, Lord."
"You are quite good at taking responsibility." Liu Zhang sneered: "Do you know what you mean by doing this? You are so smart that you want to hurt the people closest to me to achieve your own goals. You shouldn't know the truth.
Isn't it a taboo? Harassing the ministers and forcing the leader to come to the throne is, at best, disrupting the imperial court, and at worst, forming cliques and undermining the master. Do you really not want your head on the throne?"
"Fa Zheng knows he is guilty of death."
Fazheng buried his head deeply. He knew exactly what crime Liu Zhang was talking about. No one could afford such a crime, let alone achieve his own goal by hurting the people his lord cares about most. Fazheng knew what he was going to face.
But he was not afraid of Liu Zhang's overwhelming anger. He had already thought of this moment when he made this desperate plan.
"Death penalty? That's easy to say." Liu Zhang stood up, stared at Fa Zheng and said: "You are guilty of death penalty. It is you who are cheap, and I am the one who is tired. Fa Zheng, from now on, will be deprived of all positions, demoted to common people, and follow me.
As for Huang Yue, my officer found out that the snake was released by the guards around Xun'er, and he had been beheaded by me, so he is not guilty."
"There won't be a next time." After Liu Zhang finished speaking, he shook his robe and left. Huang Yue was stunned for a moment, raised his head and asked Fa Zhengdao: "Mr. Fa, why is this?"
Fazheng didn't react for a long time. Looking at Liu Zhang's back as he walked away quickly, he sighed and said, "My lord, please avoid being lenient on the outside and be generous on the inside. He did this because we didn't do it out of malice and didn't cause serious consequences."
There was no pursuit.”
Fazheng said sadly: "I really underestimated your lord's wisdom and played these tricks. Alas, it's so shameful."
Fa Zheng shook his head and left the Mufu, leaving Huang Yue alone in a daze in the garden. For her, after doing so much, it seemed that she was back to the starting point. Perhaps the only gain was to know about that dusk on Elm Street.
Liu Zhang’s real thoughts.
After Liu Zhang gave Aguda the antidote and asked him to diagnose and treat Liu Xun, it was already late at night. All the servants had fallen asleep, and only the lanterns glowed dimly.
Liu Zhang quietly walked to Guan Xiao Furong's side room and opened the door with a creak. It was dark inside, with only the moonlight filtering through the door and window.
Liu Zhang shouted in a low voice: "Rong'er, Rong'er, are you asleep?"
There was no sound at all in the room. Liu Zhang stood at the door for a while, feeling very cold, and then walked towards the bed in the room. Suddenly, a loud shout came, and a sharp sword was placed in front of Liu Zhang's neck, which frightened Liu Zhang.
Jump.
"If you take another half step forward, I will kill you."
Xiao Furong's voice came from the darkness, and I didn't know when she came over.
"If you are really willing, just kill him."
Liu Zhang walked straight in, "You..." Xiao Furong had no choice but to take two steps back, sheathed her sword, turned around and lay back on the bed, with her back to Liu Zhang. Liu Zhang looked for the gauze lantern for a long time, but couldn't find it.
I could only give up and crawl into bed under the moonlight.
He reached out and touched Xiao Furong's round shoulder, and felt Xiao Furong shake slightly, and then shook off Liu Zhang's hand. Liu Zhang simply took off his shoes and pressed close to him, not knowing whether to avoid him or to give him space.
Lying down, Xiao Furong shrank inward to make some space.
"Rong'er, Rong'er."
Liu Zhang called a few times but didn't hear an answer. He leaned forward, lifted Xiao Furong's shoulders, and said softly: "Why are you still angry?"
"If you don't speak, I'll be angry."
"Hello."
"Pa." Xiao Furong received a slap on the butt, turned her head and glared at Liu Zhang, but realized that Liu Zhang couldn't see, turned around again, and said fiercely: "Don't you suspect that I harmed your son? Why are you here?
Are you afraid that I will kill you too?"
Liu Zhang smiled, as long as he talked, it would be easy. He lay down next to Xiao Furong, but found that the pillow was soaked. He didn't know how long she had been crying secretly.
Liu Zhang hugged Xiao Furong distressedly and said softly: "Don't be angry. In fact, I always knew it was not you. I just thought that after locking you up, the real murderer will relax his vigilance and reveal his true colors, so that your husband can
The case can be successfully solved."
"Okay, you use me as bait, don't you? Why do you use me like this...don't touch me."
"You are my woman, why would I be so open to my own woman?" Liu Zhang shamelessly leaned forward and said in a different tone: "Then there is something wrong with you, so many people doubt you, you
Without saying a word of excuse, he just stared at me and asked me if I believed you. Well, I said I believe you and then dismissed everyone. Is this useful? Others still doubt you. "
"I'm afraid of them. I only need you to believe in me."
"But I'm afraid. Don't forget that your man is a state shepherd, not a lone ranger. Things have to be dealt with. I can't suppress them with just one word. Those ministers are surrendering on the surface but harboring evil in their hearts. Then how can you be my wife?
Then don’t let people make irresponsible remarks?
And you, if you encounter these things in the future, it won't be the case. Today, Xu Jing accuses you, you should just say, do you have any evidence? Shut up that guy, aren't you usually very brave? Why did you get here?
At the critical moment, he turned into a submissive sick cat?"
Liu Zhang scolded him and didn't even begin to explain. Xiao Furong felt much better and felt that her boss was wrong and had caused a lot of trouble to the man.
Liu Zhang stretched out his hand to lift her shoulder, and then she let him move her over softly. She shrank into Liu Zhang's arms and whispered: "Didn't I see you there? I'm just afraid that you won't believe me. If you're not here,
, I would have raised my sword and chopped the man named Xu into pieces with one blow."
[Let me tell you a fairy tale. Once upon a time, there was a very powerful magician. One day, the magician wrote a novel on a whim. He used magic to make those guys who usually have votes and are too lazy to vote for him vote for him, so he was recommended.
Ranked first on the ranking list, the magician laughed loudly and said: "I didn't count the number of words in this paragraph. I don't believe you counted."]
