Chapter 69 Enthronement (3)
No matter what kind of mood you have, everyone in the hall looked at Li Xiaoru quietly. How would he answer? After a while, Li Xiaoru sighed and said, "Your Highness, King Yan, I forgive you for being disrespectful to the officials. Your conditions cannot be agreed."
As soon as Li Xiaoru's words came out, he was like directly rejecting his father's request. In this case, he was no different from seeking death.
Everyone in the palace looked at Li Xiaoru with a bright look. Some were surprised, some were puzzled, some were admired, and some were ridiculed... My heart suddenly jumped, and while shaking my head secretly, I sighed: "Only this is Li Xiaoru."
The father was staring at Li Xiaoru. He seemed to have never thought that after the previous incidents between Huang Zicheng and Qi Tai, Li Xiaoru had the courage to openly violate his orders. There was a hint of appreciation in his eyes, but more of it was murderous.
"Li Xiaoru, aren't you afraid of death?" The father asked angrily. He heard that he knew that he had decided to kill Li Xiaoru to demonstrate.
I was immediately anxious when I heard this. You must know that Li Xiaoru was a decent student of Song Lu. Since Song Lu, a master of Neo-Confucianism, returned home, Li Xiaoru has become the leader of Confucian scholars in the world. Even if Li Xiaoru is my father-in-law, he can only say that he is the example of my great Wu Qingliu Shilin, and he really cannot kill him. Otherwise, how could scholars in the future be loyal to our Zhu family?
When I was thinking hard about the way to rescue Li Xiaoru, I saw my master walking to my father very quickly and said a few words softly. The father was stunned after hearing this, and then turned around and looked at his master, not knowing what the master said to his father.
Since I saw my master walking forward, my heart was slightly relieved. With my master's knowledge, I would definitely not know Li Xiaoru's identity. Although I couldn't hear what Master said to my father, I could also see that Li Xiaoru could be able to save his life.
Thinking about this in my heart, I knew that I would strike while the iron was hot, and hurriedly walked out to the court officials, knelt down and pleaded: "Father, although Li Xiaoru doesn't know the generality, the child still wants to ask the father to remember that when the Li family saved the child when he was in trouble, he was in the relationship with the child, so let him go this time!"
The father was hesitating for his master's words. After hearing me, he came out to plead with mercy. He snorted coldly and said, "Li Xiaoru, since Changluo has pleaded for you today, you should go down first, but you have to remember that you cannot leave the capital until the ceremony of ascending the throne in the lonely place ends." As he said, the father turned his eyes and asked to others: "Who else is not convinced by the orphan?"
There were several tough ministers who had not kneeled down before. But at this time, when they saw Li Xiaoru's fate, they probably knew that if they continued to be "hard", they would probably not be as lucky as Li Xiaoru, and some people would come out to express their love. Therefore, they all knelt down one after another, and there was no one standing in the hall except Li Xiaoru.
The father nodded with satisfaction and said, "Although the throne ceremony will be held on a date, state affairs cannot be ignored for a day. From tomorrow, everything will return to normal. Please come to the morning court for five hours. Let's go to the morning court today!" As he said that, the father waved his sleeves and led the other uncles out of the hall and checked the palaces in various places.
The court officials also walked out of the hall one after another. Li Xiaoru came to me and looked at me. He seemed to have something to say. But after opening his lips a few times, he finally sighed and left without saying anything.
I looked at Li Xiaoru from afar and felt that although his figure seemed a little lonely and vicissitudes, it was so firm, as if his thin body could support this world.
After thinking quietly for a while, I suddenly heard a familiar voice behind me: "If this person is killed, then the seeds of studying in the world will be lost."
I don't have to look back and know that the person who speaks is the master. Perhaps I was too immersed in my mind and didn't even notice that he was approaching me.
"Next time, no matter who it is for, whether it is right or wrong, you can't act like Meng Lang today." The master continued to approach me, and he suddenly lowered his voice and said, "If you want to get this world, you need to remember four words closely: be careful in your words and actions."
Before I could recall my master's words, my master had already walked over me quickly and then quickly disappeared outside the palace gate.
"Master..." I called silently. This was the first time since I met Master in Chuzhou, my master spoke so close to me. Master's words made me feel a little warm and relaxed, but I also knew that something seemed to be changing unknowingly. Before, I didn't notice it at all.
"Be careful of your words and actions!" This is what Master told me. I thought about it carefully. Although I did not regret the previous plead for Li Xiaoru, I couldn't help but feel a sense of awe in my heart.
In the past, I often saw the words "Accompanying the king is like a tiger" in books. Maybe it was not until today that I really began to realize the meaning of this sentence. Read easily on your mobile phone: www.piaotian.com.com
My father will become the emperor of my Great Wu. Although I am the son of his elders, I was born in this royal family, and how could I imagine that I would simply maintain the relationship between my father and my son like ordinary people. Speaking of which, the relationship between the king and the minister is even more prominent between me and my father and the king.
"What the father wants to be submissive when he first came to the court. Although his actions were a little violent, if it were me, I might have done something like him that could shock the ministers." After putting himself in his shoes, I thought about it more and more that the pleading for Li Xiaoru was really a flirting with his father's rebellion. When I thought about it this way, I couldn't help but feel cold sweating on my back.
Because of my master's words, I began to realize fear of my father. At the same time, because of this enlightenment, I also deeply realized what Master said is the important thing to be cautious in words and actions. After all, the father and the emperor and the emperor are different. If we compare, the father is a little more realistic than the emperor and grandfather, and he cares more about his country, so... he inevitably loses some favors.
After figuring this out, I hurried back to my "master's tent". Because after Wang Bi died, I quickly occupied the magpie's nest and turned the original Dingyuan Marquis' Mansion into my place of residence, and put my majestic tent in the mansion.
"Have you found any list or something?" As soon as I entered the inner hall, I immediately asked the cable car that was facing me. At this time, I felt that the more chips I had, the greater the room for maneuvering in the future. Therefore, the list of spies placed by Jinyi and Jinwu in various places was very important to me.
"Your Highness... the young man didn't find any list." Ruidaocun replied with a hint of sadness. It seemed that he could not find the list, and he was even more disappointed than me.
I was stunned when I heard this. Although I felt a little depressed in my heart, I also cheered up. I smiled and patted the ropeway Cun on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, look for it slowly. This list is very important. I'm afraid that Wang Bi, the old slippery man, is hidden in some secret and difficult to find." While speaking, I remembered the palace maids I met in the palace today, and whispered to rope Cun: "Where is the woman I caught today?"
Sui Daocun naturally knew that I was asking about the masked woman, pointed to my dormitory, and said, "I tied her up and locked her in His Royal Highness's room, while the other women were locked in the side room."
I nodded and asked the cable car to continue searching for the account book, then turned around and walked towards my room.
After opening the door, the woman was indeed lying obediently on my bed. Because I used my unique technique to lit the acupoints and made the ropeway tightly tie the cowhide rope. Even if she had the ability to do it, she still couldn't break free. Therefore, when I walked into the door, she glared at me fiercely.
"With your appearance, you should not be an ordinary woman. How dare you ask the girl's name, what is her identity in the palace?" From the beginning, I was thinking about who this woman was. After all, her appearance is so beautiful, she would definitely not be an ordinary palace maid. Moreover, she has such a strong skill, which seems to be the way of the Jinghua Sect that I have seen before, so I am really curious about her identity.
When I approached, I took away the wet cloth stuffed into the woman's mouth, and then sat leisurely and stared at her, waiting for her to answer my question.
The woman coughed a few times, and did not answer immediately after hearing my question. She turned her eyes and said, "To be honest, I am just a female musician from the Western Regions and have no identity in the palace."
I only looked at her expression and knew that her words were purely nonsense, so I deliberately kept my eyes on her high chest for a while, then went up and down her lower abdomen while enjoying the fun, and said with a smile: "Since the girl is a musician, why did she run to Qianyuan Palace again? And... the girl seems to like my Dawu artifact very much and want to take it away secretly!"
