The reborn worthy minister is difficult to do

Seeing Xu Ci defending the crown prince like this, Emperor Taikang was very pleased, "That's right, what Xu Xianma said is a truth."

Turning his face turned cold, Emperor Taikang glared at Doctor Guanglu angrily, and slapped the table, "Bold Du Yong, the prince guarded the territory and fought against Jialou for five years. He lived and lived in the wind and the dew. Now Fang is returning triumphantly with all his glory. But you let me depose the crown prince? What do my people in Beiguan think of me, and what do my soldiers from all over the world think of me?"

Doctor Guanglu was so frightened that he immediately knelt down on the ground.

"As soon as the crown prince returned to the palace, he told me about this matter. What I thought was exactly what Xu Xianma said. But you, Du Yong, avoided the important and ignored the trivial. You only caught the wrong place and picked the bones. I see that you are tired , I want people in the world to laugh at me, scold me for being unkind and unrighteous, and belittle heroes."

"You are so trapped in me, what use is there for me to have you?!"

Emperor Taikang became more and more angry as he spoke, and in the end he became even more furious. He rushed to the case, "Come here! Drag Fei Yong out, take him to the Meridian Gate and behead him, and hang his body outside the palace gate for public display. If anyone dares to impeach the prince again in the future That's the way it will end!"

The two guards dragged Doctor Guanglu out expressionlessly. Doctor Guanglu begged all the way, regretting impeachment in every possible way.After dragging it far away, in the main hall, you can still hear Doctor Guanglu swearing and insulting Emperor Taikang to make an example of others. Fei Yuanzheng has figured it out after some testing. It seems that the matter of impeachment can no longer be mentioned for the time being, and the reputation of the fourth prince needs to be strengthened. .

After such a court game, the matter of Li Haochen's east tour has been decided, and he will leave soon.

Among the civil officials, Xu Changzong was very surprised to see that Xu Ci was also among the officials of the early dynasty, and he was only 15 years old to receive this honor.But seeing that he is only the last fifth-rank official now, and he is still a little bit worse than him back then, he is really not as good as him, and the jealousy in his heart is a little bit lighter.

Back then, Xu Ci was useless and notorious, and Xu Changzong had long been tired of him.

But I didn't expect that once Xu Ci left Xu's house and stayed in Song Taigong's house for a few years, those advantages would spring up like mushrooms after a spring rain, and "chuo babble" would come out.

After some comparison, it seems that he is incapable of raising his children, and the reason why Xu Ci was not doing well when he was young is all because of his father's deliberate suppression and poor discipline.

Xu Changzong thought he was a dumb man who ate Coptis chinensis, so he couldn't explain his sufferings.

Seeing him offending Fei Shi, who is the dominant family, he laughed in his heart, thinking that being a crown prince would give him peace of mind, but you don't know that Mr. Fei is extremely powerful, his party feathers have already spread all over the government and the public, his branches are flourishing, and he is a hundred-legged insect.

Concubine Li is also in charge of the harem. Although she has not been conferred, she is almost the same.Comparing the two parties, Fei's power is much stronger.

Xu Ci has offended the Fei family now, and he is afraid that he will die in the future without knowing how to die.

Now, he, a humble bachelor, has already joined Fei Yuanzheng's command.

But he forgot the principle that prosperity must decline, and things must go against each other. The Fei family now looks like a regent. Although Emperor Taikang is benevolent, whoever is the emperor is not cruel. Once there is a chance to punish them, the Fei family will I'm afraid there is no place to die.

……

Because it is the prince Xianma, Xu Ci was allowed to follow the prince.Even if he doesn't follow, Emperor Taikang will order him to follow and stay on the side.But Yan Si and Yan Niu acted as other drivers, so of course they would drive another carriage to accompany them.

The crown prince ordered the Jingjia Yingying, who was secretly protected, to guard the East Palace partly and partly return to the Dark Guard Building.Even the prince was attacked three times within a few days, which was not tempered enough.

Li Haochen only keeps Mo Ye, who has the highest martial arts and lightness kung fu, by his side, protecting the group of people at any time.But now that the Zhenbei army was temporarily resting, and there was nothing wrong with the army, Gongsun Tuo threw Gongsun Yu to His Highness the Crown Prince, and asked him to take a piece out to learn more.

In this way, Dong Xun and his party settled on these six people.

After the crown prince's East Tour and his party settled down, they packed up their things and set off quietly soon. They agreed to go to Yangzhou by horse-drawn carriage first, and then go to Suzhou by water from Yangzhou.

This group of people is unobtrusive and extremely low-key.Didn't even use the royal carriage, just bought a carriage from the road.Just looking at the battle, it seems like a few ordinary sons traveling together, not at all like high-ranking officials going on tour.

But if you take a closer look at the aura spontaneously formed by several people from the inside out, you dare not underestimate them.

Li Haochen didn't like riding in a carriage, so he rode on the road on Tayan, and Xu Ci also rode on the fireworks according to the occasion.As a result, Yan Si, A Niu, and Gongsun Yu squeezed into a carriage and stared blankly, with Mo Ye acting as the groom.

And Li Haochen and Xu Ci walked leisurely together, leaving the carriage not far behind.

Tayan and fireworks are chatting with each other from time to time on the road, Xu Ci is very delicious to watch.

The group of people just walked and stopped like this, and they didn't encounter any assassins on the way.Half a month later, the group arrived on the official road more than ten miles away from the gate of Yangzhou.

There are few people on this official road, and it is extremely empty.

Emerald-colored delicate buds have already grown on the branches on both sides, and the birds are singing quietly.

Li Haochen and Xu Ci rode the two horses forward while eating tender grass. Ta Yan and fireworks were having a good time, but suddenly a figure rushed out from behind the tree. Ta Yan was fine and calm.It's just that Fireworks was frightened back two steps and neighed several times.

Xu Ci controlled the fireworks and took a closer look. It was an old woman with messy gray hair, ragged clothes and wrinkled face.

The old woman ignored the two of them and went straight to the carriage behind them.Because Mo Ye wanted to appear in front of people, he wore a coarse linen suit, disguised as a simple and honest groom.

When he saw someone rushing, he thought it was an assassin, and was about to strike, but he saw the person running to the horse and knelt down with a "thump", kept kowtowing, and cried "wronged" inarticulately.

For more than two years, this old woman did not do other things every day, but hid behind the pipeline trees from Kyoto to Yangzhou, and rushed out when there was a carriage.

Because of her daughter's death, she was delirious and insane, but she still remembered the strange case of Master Qingtian that she often heard in dramas.In the play, the wronged person stops the carriage and presents a blood letter to redress his grievances, and the perpetrator is upright.

But said that this old woman was originally from a poor family, her husband died early, leaving only a daughter.This girl grew up to be twenty-eight years old, beautiful and moving, and she was taken by the youngest son of the magistrate of Yangzhou who was idle.

This youngest son has always been lawless, domineering and vicious, and without saying a word, he took people into captivity and raped the old woman's daughter.It can be said that the woman is a loyal and loyal woman, and she has already promised others.

Now that I have lost my body, I don't want to live anymore.So he wrote a blood letter and left it to his fiancé. He threw himself into a well and died when he was fished out.

The fiancé was afraid of the power of the magistrate of Yangzhou, and he didn't dare to spread it, so he returned the blood book to the woman's mother, that is, the old woman.

The old woman complained to the yamen, and no one dared to take care of her. The magistrate of Yangzhou tried to clean up his son, so he bit the woman back, saying that she had seduced her first, just to marry into the Lin family.The treachery failed but was found out by the fiancé, and he threw himself into a well in shame, and finally sentenced the dead woman to the crime of debauchery.

When the old woman heard that her daughter had died tragically but was wrongly sentenced, she was so angry that she began to go crazy.The blood book was also snatched from the yamen, because the incident was so big that the magistrate didn't dare to snatch it openly, and the old woman was already dumbfounded and talking nonsense, so she left it, planning to take her secretly in the future seal.

Although the old woman was stupid, she knew that if she entered the city, someone would arrest her and take away her blood book.

So he hid in the woods on both sides of the official road all day long, not daring to get too close to Yangzhou City, and wandered around the official road more than ten miles outside Yangzhou City from time to time.During the day, he stopped the carriage to redress his grievances, and at night he hid in the cave to sleep.

The magistrate of Yangzhou couldn't catch her, and since the matter had passed for a long time, he no longer cared about her.Anyway, she is already a crazy woman in the mountains, who would believe her nonsense.

After more than two years like this, the old woman still did not give up.

Seeing Mo Ye's carriage coming over today, he rushed out again holding the bloody book written on the linen.

As soon as they came up, they slammed their heads and held up the blood book high.

Now she can't speak well, and her mind is not clear, but the only thing she can remember is to avenge her daughter.

Yan Si got out of the car and took the blood book held up by the old woman. The old woman fixed her eyes on the blood book.

There have been several times when a carriage stopped, and the people in the carriage took the blood book and read it, but wanted to tear it up.

Fortunately, the old woman found out in time and snatched the blood book.

Having experienced this matter so much, the old woman dared not take her eyes off the blood book anymore, lest this person, like those people, would tear up the only criminal evidence.

Yan Si read the blood book once, his expression changed slightly, and he presented the blood book to Li Haochen.

The blood book is the history of the woman's blood and tears, detailing how Lin Baifu, the youngest son of the prefect of Yangzhou, took her back to the mansion by force, and how he forced and threatened her.

Xu Ci was right next to Li Haochen, and he could see the content with a flick of his neck.

Looking at the contents of this tattered, old blood book, and looking at the old woman with an old face and nervous expression, Xu Ci's eyes were red, and his hands turned white.

Li Haochen also had a cold expression on his face, wanting to freeze the surroundings into a cold winter.

Xu Ci glanced at Li Haochen, seeing him nodding his head slightly, he got off his horse and helped the old woman up.The voice said softly: "Ma'am, please relax. We will take care of this matter, and you should go to the carriage to rest first."

The old woman stayed here for more than two years, this is the first time I heard that someone promised to take care of this matter, no matter whether the other party has the ability or not, she knelt down and kowtowed her head to thank her, she burst into tears, and all the seven-foot men looked at her Sad in my heart.

Only maternal love in the world can do this without expecting anything in return.

Seeing this, Gongsun Yu got off the carriage and helped the old woman into the carriage.I came out and sat next to Mo Ye to drive the horse together. In the car, Yan Sisu was always good at speaking. Although the old woman was slurred, Yan Si patiently guided him, and he learned the cause and effect along the way.

Yangzhou is a resort, a rich and peaceful place to live. It should be an easy place to live.

The local magistrates think that the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and they have no law.

Now all they know is this one, and they don't know how much filth and turbidity is hidden behind the glamor.

Xu Ci pursed his lips, remembering the time when his mother was framed to death in her previous life.

At that time, the prince went out again, and he was serving in Yangzhou, so I didn't know it.When I got home, I only saw Huangtu Yipei.All the evidence of the crime was destroyed, and he was powerless to defend himself.So at this time, because the old woman defended the daughter, reminding him of this incident, he felt the same, and his color was extremely pale and ugly.

Seeing that Xu Ci's expression was not right, Li Haochen got off his horse and went over, took him into his arms, and patted his back, "Are you scared?"

Xu Ci buried his face in Li Haochen's chest, leaned on his body to stand upright, and said in a muffled voice, "I'm not afraid. I just hate the snakes and insects in this place, oppressing the people, and being lawless. I really deserve to die."

Li Haochen held Xu Ci tighter, trying to warm Xiao Ci with his own body, but his face was so ugly that he seemed about to faint instantly, "Don't worry, he won't let him get away with it."
